"Sister!" Shani tugged on the train of Xia Wei's skirt, stood on tiptoes and whispered in her ear: "There are only two of us girls at home. If we let a single man live in us, would it be inviting a wolf into the house?"
"Shh! You naughty girl, stop talking! Xia Wei glared at her sister, then pulled her aside and said softly: "Our tenant has quit the rent for a long time, and we can't find a new tenant. Don't say that you do it every day. I no longer have money to buy my favorite chestnut cake, and I can barely afford three meals a day! "
"Cake..." Images of all kinds of delicious sweets suddenly appeared in Shani's little head. She swallowed her saliva and flattened her mouth. In the end, the temptation of delicious food took over. She quickly said to her sister: "Then let's Hurry up and keep this fat sheep, don’t let him rent someone else’s house!”
The conversation between the two sisters was not loud, but Guan Heng's hearing was surprisingly good, and he had already heard everything clearly.
"Oh, it turns out that Fangxiang Town is not all rich residents, there are also poor and needy households!" So Guan Heng sighed first, and then said loudly: "Well... if the rooms you rent can reach remote areas If it’s quiet, I’ll rent it!”
In this way, Guan Heng became a temporary tenant in the home of two sisters, Xia Wei and Shani.
While walking on the road, everyone talked to each other and found out that the parents of the two sisters Xia Wei passed away two years ago. They relied on renting out rooms in the old house to earn some meager living expenses.
After inquiring about the residence of Xia Wei's family, Guan Heng temporarily broke up with the two sisters. He wanted to exchange some of the prey he caught in the dense forest and the medical plants he collected in exchange for money, so that he could pay the rent to Xia Wei.
In addition, Guan Heng also planned to go to a place to conduct reconnaissance near the home of Xinzha, the fragrant powder merchant, the largest mansion in Fragrant Town.
"Xincha, this sinister and evil wolf, has been persecuting those half-elves for many years. He is a complete scum!" Guan Heng thought to himself: "If I have the chance to kill him, I will never show mercy!"
"There is also his library. I have to go there and try to collect the knowledge I need to master!" With such a plan in mind, Guan Heng first ran to several grocery stores in the town and took all his belongings with him. All the prey was sold out and exchanged for dozens of copper coins!
"Wow, wow!" Guan Heng tossed the leather bag containing the money several times in his hand: "Well, these are enough to pay for the rent for Sister Xia Wei. Anyway, I only plan to stay for a few days. After settling the matter at Xincha’s house, I’m going to go on the road quickly to find traces of Qinghuang’s remnant soul!”
Turning left and right, Guan Heng found the luxurious mansion of Xincha, a powder merchant. It can be said that this place is magnificent, and the area alone already occupies half of the land of Fangxiang Town. Observing from the outside wall, you can clearly see the luxurious style of the mansion!
"A small incense powder merchant actually built his residence like a palace!" Guan Heng stood outside the wall of Xincha's house and said to himself expressionlessly: "Who else would have thought that, Xincha The accumulation of wealth of this incredibly wealthy country and this mansion built from the ground were all built on the remains of countless half-elves!"
"Eh? Who is that in front?" Guan Heng narrowed his eyes suddenly, and suddenly found a slim figure wearing a cloak a hundred meters away. It looked like a woman. Guan Heng only felt that the figure from the back looked familiar, but Guan Heng had just seen When he came to this continent, there were very few people he had spoken to, so how could there be anyone he knew?
"Well, follow her and see who she is!" In order to confirm the other party's identity, Guan Hengheng took a few steps forward and stared at the woman in a cloak and hood in front of him!
This mysterious woman in a cloak seemed to be very interested in the Xincha family's mansion. She walked around the mansion three times and then slightly nodded her head, as if she had confirmed something important!
A strange light flashed in Guan Heng's eyes, he quickly quickened his pace and rushed forward, reaching out and patting the opponent on the shoulder!
"You! Don't say anything yet, come with me to the alley behind!" Guan Heng greeted the other party and pointed to the alley behind him.
The woman in the hooded cloak was tapped on the shoulder. She was startled at first, and then heard Guan Heng's voice. Then she nodded and followed Guan Heng into the alley next to her!
"I didn't expect to meet you here!" Guan Heng hugged his shoulders and laughed softly: "Have you found any trace of your brother?"
It turns out that the person wearing the hooded cloak is the half-elf girl who parted ways with Guan Heng before and went to the lower reaches of the water source in the jungle to look for her brother—Melty!
"Oh, I have searched all the water sources near the cliff, upstream and downstream!" With a little disappointment on his face, Melty shook his head slightly: "But there is still no trace of my brother. His life or death is unknown now!"
"Don't be too sad. As long as one day you are not sure that he has passed away, you should try your best to find him!" Guan Heng said to her: "No hope can be destroyed, because this is the motivation to move forward! "
"Well, you are right, I will never give up looking for Werther's whereabouts!"
"However, whenever I think of the persecution of my own people, I can't suppress the anger in my heart!" Clenching her fists, Melty gritted her teeth and said angrily: "So I decided to come to the town to find an opportunity to kill Xin. Let’s take revenge first!”
"You also want to find trouble with the powder merchant? It seems that our purpose is the same!"
Guan Heng leaned at the entrance of the alley and glanced at the door of the Xincha mansion opposite. He immediately said to Melty: "I have told you before, this unscrupulous businessman has many bodyguards in his family. If you are one If a person goes to seek revenge, he may be in trouble, so why don't we cooperate and deal with him severely!"
"Okay! Let's cooperate then! I'm very confident about your skills!" Melty has been rescued by Guan Heng before, so she naturally has a certain level of trust in him. Plus, having a helper by her side really adds to the strength. A lot of convenience!
"First of all, we need to make a thorough plan before we can sneak into the Xincha family's mansion. You must know that the home of this rich man who has killed thousands of people is likely to be in many dangers!"
At this moment, Guan Heng suddenly noticed Melty frowning slightly, so he asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Uh, it's nothing, I..." Although Melty said this, her feet suddenly wobbled, and she was about to fall down if she tilted her body!
"Pah!" Guan Heng reached out and held Melty's shoulder: Hey, hey, don't scare me. Do you have a hidden disease? "
After hesitating for two seconds, Melty suddenly blushed and asked, "Guan Heng, do you have anything to eat with you?"
