After a while, Ning Zhishui and Hua Jiaqing left Dou's house.
Hua Jiaqing was full of confusion.
For example, where did Ning Zhishui hear about spiritual veins? Judging from the reaction of the head of the Dou family, we knew that this matter must be a secret and has not been spread out yet.
Also, why would Ning Zhishui want Zuifenglou? That's not a nice place!
Hua Jiaqing didn't think it was a big deal at the black market stall. If nothing else, she would rather Zhi Shui's alchemy skills. Just bring some elixirs to the stall and she wouldn't have to worry about selling them at a good price.
But Hua Jiaqing has a great advantage, that is, she doesn't ask about things she shouldn't ask, and she won't interfere in things she shouldn't care about.
She could talk about Ning Zhishui's affairs if she wanted to. If she didn't, Hua Jiaqing wouldn't ask.
She just asked Ning Zhishui after leaving Dou's house, "Ning, where are we going now?"
Dou Linfang just said that he would need two days to arrange the matter at Zui Feng Tower and would hand it over to Ning Zhishui the day after tomorrow at the earliest.
The black market only opens at the end of every month, so there is still some time left.
Dou Lin will make arrangements for Ning Zhishui to join the Merchant Alliance in the next few days. She will be needed then, and the spiritual vein mining will not be until the end of the month.
So what should they do now?
"Let's rent a house." Ning Zhishui said, "Let's go."
Hua Jiaqing nodded obediently, "Oh, okay, just choose a place near Zui Feng Tower?"
"No, just find a convenient location."
The two were walking on the road, while Ning Zhishui was thinking about Zui Feng Tower.
In her previous life, there was a woman under her command who was stunningly beautiful and ruthless, and she especially hated men.
Even Zhong Qiaonan, who has always been very popular, has a cold face and never pretends to be polite.
She is Tao Qi, who is known as "Beautiful Rakshasa".
Tao Qi's skin was as delicate as jade and as delicate as porcelain, but no one expected that there were many horrific and ugly scars hidden on her body, which were injured by a benefactor with eccentricities when she was in the Land of Fireworks.
She once revealed her feelings to Ning Zhishui and talked about her past that she couldn't bear to look back on.
She was sold when she was young and grew up in a brothel. She suffered a lot because of her bad temper.
There was a leading fairy in the building at that time. When the fairy saw that Tao Qi was very similar to her sister who died young, she loved her very much. Because of her protection, Tao Qi was spared many beatings.
Tao Qi has good looks and is second only to the top guy in the building, so he has to start accepting customers as he gets older.
She has an unchanging temper and is very different from other fairies who are delicate and gentle, so she doesn't have many benefactors.
But one day, a man with unique taste came over and asked her to serve him. When she inquired about it, she found out that he was from a famous family - the Zhang family!
The aunt in charge of the building is very strict and has a high level of cultivation. The girls in the building are not qualified to refuse the patrons. Even Tao Qi has no choice but to accept her.
But I didn't expect that Mr. Zhang had such a hobby. He tortured the girl to death in various ways on the bed. She almost shed a layer of skin after serving him for one night!
Mr. Zhang likes women with strong tempers and thinks that playing with them this way is more exciting. Moreover, he doesn't like women's intact bodies, but likes their miserable appearance with injuries all over their bodies.
Tao Qi was in terrible pain, and his injuries could not be treated. Within a few days, he lost weight, and his face looked ashen.
Tao Qi couldn't help it anymore, and wanted to run away after her refusal was fruitless, but the steward's aunt had already noticed it, and after catching her, she was beaten severely, killing half of her life.
But that night, Mr. Zhang came again and asked her to serve him by name.
Tao Qi couldn't bear it when she was healthy. How could she bear it now that she was injured and sick?
She was determined to die and planned to fight that guy.
So he took a special poison, which can only be triggered by having sex with someone. After the poison is triggered, both of them will die suddenly together.
If no one touches her, the poison will lose its effectiveness.
Just when Tao Qi was planning to meet Mr. Zhang, she didn't expect that the top sister discovered her plan.
"You can't die. We have to endure it until the day we are able to leave the building." With tears in her eyes, the number one sister locked her in her room and forced her to take medicine. "Don't move." , I’ll go for you, you wait for me to come back.”
After taking the medicine, Tao Qi fell asleep. She woke up at noon the next day, but the top sister did not come back.
She frantically looked for someone, but only heard the news of her death——
"Human? He's dead, covered in blood, without a good piece of skin... I can't help it. Mr. Zhang didn't see that you were very angry, so he struck a little harder and couldn't control his strength. But you don't have to be afraid, listen. He said that Mr. Zhang will be busy with spiritual vein mining outside the city soon, and he won’t be able to spare time for a long time, so you should take this opportunity to recuperate.”
…
Ning Zhishui breathed out a breath.
At this time, Hua Jiaqing noticed that Ning Zhishui's expression was not right, her eyes were a little red, and there seemed to be a killing intent around her, so she couldn't help but look at her in confusion.
Why did this happen all of a sudden?
Just a moment ago, he was talking about renting a house. Why do he want to kill someone now?
"Are you okay?" she asked quietly.
Ning Zhishui hummed, her face became calmer, but her voice still had a hint of sternness, "It's pretty good."
I just want to kill someone.
After wandering around the city, Ning Zhishui chose a house.
The house is quite grand, and the location is good. It's right in the city, so it's convenient to go anywhere.
The Alchemist Guild is not far ahead, and you can reach it by walking slowly for a quarter of an hour.
When I inquired about it, I found that less than ten days after the house was vacant, the old owner was accidentally killed. The family members were panicked and worried that something might happen, so they sold it at a low price and the family moved out of Luoyu City.
Because there have been deaths in the house, everyone is worried that they will get into trouble if they take over it. Therefore, even if the house is in a good location, it is not easy to sell it.
It only takes eight thousand crystal stones to buy it.
Ning Zhishui walked around this very clean house and sighed in her heart——
This is probably luck.
If she wanted to establish herself in Luo Yucheng, it would be impossible without a decent house, but those good houses were difficult to buy because most of them were already owned. Even if they were available, it would be difficult to buy them with the money she had.
So she thought of renting one to make do with, and it wouldn't be too late to buy one later when she had money.
But I didn't expect that by coincidence, there happened to be such a yard that was very cheap and the location and size met my requirements.
If you don’t buy this, you’ll be sorry for yourself.
As for worrying about enemies, that's too much. People's enemies are not stupid, how can they make mistakes in such obvious things?
Moreover, if there is really an enemy chasing after him, the family members in the house will not be able to move out so easily!
So, buy it!
Ning Zhishui negotiated the price and finally bought it for 7,500.
