All the work on the new house was completed yesterday. Whether it was wood, wall plaster, floor tiles, or even some of Wang Lanping's favorite flowers and plants, they were all moved and planted in the backyard.
In the morning, Zhang Shun was pushed over by Zhang Huiyuan to have a look. The two of them nodded happily. At noon, Wang Lanping also came over to take a look. Her eyes turned red as she looked at it. She trembled slightly and said that her previous house didn't look as spacious as this house.
After that, Zhang Huiyuan couldn't stay in the store any longer, so she went home early and packed up her things with Wang Lanping to prepare for the next move. This matter still has to be done by the women in the family. Otherwise, with Zhang Er's temper, the family probably wouldn't even need to bring bed covers and buy new ones. Just know how to waste money.
And not only moving, but also decorating this new home is a necessary emergency. Because the first important use of the house after it was organized was to build a new house for the eldest brother Zhang Shun and marry him.
This is the Zhang family’s top priority right now.
However, Zhang Shun had to visit the store, and as an older bachelor, Zhang Shun maintained a state of "ecstasy in his heart but shy on his face" about this kind of thing. He always paid attention to it with a "I'm very busy" look.
After two days, there were quite a few items decorated for the new house. Window decorations, bed sets, wedding packages. Even though Wang Lanping usually cares about buying groceries, she is very generous in these matters. As long as she needs things for the wedding, she will choose the best ones. Although it is not the best in everything, it is still much higher than the average level.
But then came the problems that came up: no one was living in the new house, but there were a lot of things, some of which were not cheap. It made the family feel uneasy when no one was looking at them, for fear of being stolen by thieves. Just left. After all, there is no care from the garrison Master Zhou in Zhuzui Alley here, and there are no soldiers to patrol repeatedly.
"Rebirth of the Great Era of Fighting Waves"
It is definitely not appropriate for two women in the family to come and guard an empty house. Naturally, it was not suitable for Zhang Shun to come here in a wheelchair. Zeng Hao could have been used to run errands in these places, but the master came and had to wait on him. So the final task of looking at the house fell on Zhang Yan.
"Okay, I'll just move over there." Zhang Yan picked up his small bag, which only contained a few changes of clothes. Just roll up the quilt and take it away, it's not a hassle at all. He really wanted to live in a new house, it was much more comfortable there than Zhuzui Lane.
After dinner at home, Zhang Yan went to his new house in Beicheng, carrying his bedroll and baggage. Looking at the small palm-sized wooden sign hanging beside the door that read "Zhang's House", I secretly thought that this would be a new home for the Zhang family. Then he took out the key and opened the door and walked in.
The house Zhang Yan chose for himself was in the North Corner. It was the most peripheral room among all the houses in the house. The only advantage was that it was the quietest and it was also close to the small garden in the backyard. When he opened the window, he could see a small patch of sky.
However, Zhang Yan did not go to sleep in his room when he came in this time. Instead, he entered the house and made a floor directly in the main room. As a housekeeper, it is appropriate to sleep in the main room, as you can take care of any movement in all directions.
It's just that after Zhang Yan entered the house, he casually sprinkled the five beans in the courtyard, hallway, main room, and patio. These five beans showed that he knew very well that his new house here might not be peaceful at night.
First of all, this place is not as crowded as the Zhuzui Alley, where the main garrison patrols are too active. Secondly, Zhang Yan has not noticed those strange prying eyes from birds, beasts, and insects for three days in a row.
They say the calm before the storm. Zhang Yan thinks it should be now.
After all, no matter whether they are human beings or ghosts, no matter how cautious or hot-tempered they are, they will not just stare at each other without substantial contact. From the perspective of Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan saw that the "king" who had been used by the Wu family to come to the front desk was making preparations before taking action. Perhaps he sensed Zhang Yan's unusualness and the Wu family's tricks.
But after so many days, almost all that can be glimpsed on the surface has been seen. The rest is naturally time to see the real seal in hand.
This time Zhang Yan still set up a blindfold in the main room to cover up possible prying eyes. At the same time, he used his own perception and the bean soldiers placed around him to be on guard at all times.
Just after the first hour of Haizheng, when the curfew order in Langyuan City came into effect, Zhang Yan keenly felt a yin energy slowly rising from the ground of the house where he was. This change is by no means a normal situation of the rotation of yin and yang between heaven and earth, because even if day and night alternate, the yin energy between heaven and earth will not overflow the ground so obviously.
Now, only half a stick of incense has passed, this new house where the Zhang family is smiling can already be described as "gloomy".
Why do people feel eerie? It is because the Yin energy is too heavy and exceeds the natural alternation of heaven and earth, suppressing the Yang energy in living creatures, resulting in a situation where Yang is weak and Yin is strong.
"Sure enough, it's here." Zhang Yan didn't panic. It's okay to say that he has been waiting for a long time. He even had a little bit of excitement.
Which cultivator has not thought that one day he will wave a thunderbolt or wave a thunder? How could he escape thousands of miles in a flash? After finally stepping into the realm of Dao Dan, although he is not so wanton, he can barely control the power of heaven and earth in a real sense. How could you not be excited? And the target is very likely to be a powerful ghost king.
However, after Zhang Yan waited for half an hour, the yin energy gradually increased, making the house look like a haunted house. But not a single ghost was seen.
As the saying goes, there is no distinction between humans and ghosts. You thought it was a ghost that came, but you didn't expect that it was a human who came first.
When Hai Shi is about to pass and Zi Shi is approaching, most people in Langyuan City are already lying in bed and falling asleep. At this time, four figures climbed over the courtyard wall like monkeys and entered the "Zhang Residence" from four different directions, which had just put up a sign and had not yet officially moved in.
Of course, Zhang Yan caught the breath of these four people as soon as they climbed over the wall. His perception now covers the entire house with ease. Coupled with the perception assistance of the bean soldiers around him, he could even tell the cultivation level of the four people who invaded.
Three are in the late stage of Kaiyuan Realm and one is in the early stage of Tongqiao Realm. This is the conclusion Zhang Yan drew from the aura of the Tongqiao realm warrior Lin Zedong he had seen.
Just these four people are definitely the backbone of the army. They are rare strong men in this place. Even in the Jiangwu Academy in Langyuan City, Tongqiao realm warriors are a force that cannot be underestimated.
"Wu Yuan is quite capable." Zhang Yan didn't have to guess, these people were assassins hired by Wu Yuan. The reason is also simple. He left Zhuzui Alley, and Zhou Cang did not immediately adjust the patrol route. There is a time lag, which is the opportunity for the Wu family to make a last ditch effort.
