While rushing home, Xu Wen began to check Guang Yutong's storage bag, hoping to find some clues about the young man.
This is a storage bag with the smallest size of one foot square. There are more than 300 spirit stones in it. Plus the medium-grade magical weapon short gun, this should be the price Guang Yutong sold him for.
The others are some personal belongings of Guang Yutong. After checking, there is no news about the young man.
This is normal. Except for knowing that he will die and preparing for just in case, who would carry letters, diaries, inheritance and other things with him.
After returning home, Xu Wen immediately started packing his things.
No matter who the other party is, they must know Xu Wen's residence. If the plot fails, the other party will definitely not let it go. He will definitely not be able to live here anymore.
Shiban Street lacked spiritual energy, so he wasn't prepared to stay any longer, but he couldn't help but feel angry at being forced to leave like this.
With the Heaven's Eye Baoguang Technique by his side, he actually doesn't like fighting or taking risks, and he rarely even sets foot in the wasteland outside Qingfeng City.
But in this world, dangers and grudges are always encountered unexpectedly, and they will not disappear because of your avoidance or withdrawal.
There were not many things, so he packed them up quickly. He walked to the door of the yard, took one last look at the house he had lived in for several years, and then strode away.
Along the way, he greeted his familiar neighbors on Shiban Street. No one knew whether Xu Wen would come back again.
Afraid of being followed, he first found an inn to stay.
Qingfeng City has complete facilities, which are not much different from those of ordinary people. There is no shortage of wine shops and inns, but they only supply spiritual places and spiritual food, and the prices are relatively expensive.
However, this kind of place also has an advantage - it is safe, and it is difficult for general tracking to extend here.
Then, Xu Wen, in disguise, came out of the back door of the inn and went straight to the west door.
The inn can only be used for temporary stays, and it is not cost-effective to stay for a long time. The top priority is that he must find a place to stay.
There are two main ways to rent a house in Qingfeng City. One is to go through the official area management. This is safer and cheaper, but it requires registration information and is easy to be leaked.
The other option is to rent directly from someone who owns real estate in Qingfeng City. The price is much more expensive, but registration information is not required.
For Xu Wen now, the second option is definitely more suitable.
There is an alley in Ximen that is a fixed exchange point for rental information. There are landlords waiting there, and there are also some people from Yaxing.
It was just past midnight, and the place was empty except for a boy of thirteen or fourteen who was lying on the ground boredly and drawing circles.
Seeing Xu Wen come in, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he turned to Xu Wen anxiously:
"Chang Xian, do you want to rent a house?"
"Are you renting a house for others, or do you own a house for rent?"
Xu Wen was a little surprised. How could a young man come out to do this?
"The neighbors asked me to show people the house, so I'll take you to see it!"
Li Xiaoqing replied.
In a few words, Xu Wen figured out the whole story.
Li Xiaoqing's family came from the Zhiyuan Sect, and they only owned real estate in Qingfeng City.
However, because no outstanding cultivators emerged for several generations, they gradually lost contact with the Zhiyuan Sect and became ordinary casual cultivators.
A year ago, his parents went to the Xishan ruins with others to look for opportunities, but they never returned. According to people who knew him well, they died in a melee among casual cultivators.
The originally happy family was ruined in an instant, leaving him and his sister alone struggling to survive in Qingfeng City.
What can a half-grown boy without spiritual roots do? Fortunately, the neighbors saw him as pitiful, so they left it to him to show people the house, so the two brothers and sister would not starve to death.
“This hotel has the largest area…”
“This hotel has the best location…”
Suffering makes people grow, and this sentence is vividly reflected in him.
A year ago, he was still a treasure held in the palm of his parents' hands. A year later, he was already able to skillfully work hard for his own life.
“This is the cheapest…”
Entering another house, Li Xiaoqing took out a package from the corner and spread it out while introducing him, and said loudly:
"Master Immortal, take a look, are there any of these things that you like? Each of them is a spiritual stone."
"The previous tenant of this house liked all kinds of strange things. He couldn't take them with him when he left, so he left a lot of things behind!"
"Everything else was thrown away by Fourth Uncle, and these are the only ones left. Fourth Uncle said that for every item sold, half of the spiritual stones will be given to me!"
Xu Wen couldn't help laughing, and casually took out a spirit stone and threw it to Li Xiaoqing.
Even if I run against him today, this thing must be sold.
Looking at a lot of weird things with mixed auras, Xu Wen frowned and instinctively activated the Heavenly Eye Treasure Light Technique.
This was just a habit developed by Taobao in the ghost market. He had no hope of finding any good goods among these abandoned things.
But what surprised him was that among the dim lights and shadows, there was one thing that was emitting a gray precious light.
When he took it out, he saw that it was a human face mask as thin as a cicada's wings. It had all the facial features and was lifelike. It was made of an unknown material and felt very gentle to the touch.
Tried to input spiritual power, but to no avail. This is a treasure that requires more than just mana.
Infused with the mind, the gray light turned into a message:
Thousand Phantom Faces, which can change your face, can be used after applying the cloud fruit pulp.
Cloud fruit is a low-level spiritual fruit mainly used for brewing spiritual wine.
The owner of this house has collected thousands of phantoms, and must have noticed something strange about this mask.
But he didn't know how to use the cloud fruit to cooperate, and he never got the key. The pearl was cast in secret, and the treasure was covered in dust, until today.
Holding Qian Huanmian, Xu Wen was overjoyed.
Ever since he had the Celestial Eye Baoguang Technique, he had been very worried about being discovered, but he had never thought of a good way.
He knows some basic disguise methods, but the five senses and six senses of a cultivator are far superior to ordinary people. It is difficult to hide these methods from others. If used casually, it will be useless.
Ordinary spiritual objects that hide faces are too conspicuous and unsuitable. This Thousand Illusion Faces is obviously much more sophisticated.
Putting the mask quietly into his arms, Xu Wen followed Li Xiaoqing and continued to look at the house.
Originally, he was planning to rent a house directly from Li Xiaoqing and then use some means to erase his memory afterwards, but with Thousand Phantoms, he naturally had a better choice.
After watching for a while, he made no excuses and left, but before leaving, he gave the strong little boy two more spiritual stones.
Without him, Xu Wen would not have had the chance to obtain the Thousand Phantoms, and he should have been paid more.
But given his strength, giving him too many spiritual stones would harm him, so he would have to wait and see the opportunity later.
After buying some cloud fruit on the way, Xu Wen hurriedly returned to the inn, put a liquid mask coated with cloud fruit pulp on his face, and activated his magic power again.
It was completely different from the previous time when the mana could not penetrate. This time, the mana successfully entered the Thousand Illusions.
His face tightened, and Qian Huanmian immediately stuck to his face tightly, but there was no feeling of suffocation.
A strange power surged out from Qian Huanmen and flowed through his whole body. A strange feeling arose. Xu Wen suddenly felt that he could control his body to make certain changes.
With a thought, his complexion suddenly turned dark and weathered, thick beards grew from his cheeks, and his nose and eyes became enlarged.
At the same time, his stature continued to grow taller and swelled laterally, and he soon turned into a gangster.
This is not the only form of the Thousand Illusions. It can also change into various different appearances according to the user's wishes, which is why it is called Thousand Illusions.
This is a disguise based on the blood of the body, which is completely different from Taoist methods. It is a typical magic method. Like the statue of Yama Creation, the Thousand Illusionary Faces are also magic weapons.
