"Manager Zhang is missing?"
After hearing the news, Chen An couldn't help but frown slightly, with a bit of surprise on his face.
The expression is not artificial, it looks very natural.
The leader of the Bamboo Leaf Gang monk, a middle-aged man dressed in white, was always observing Chen An's facial expression and found nothing unusual.
To further observe, he said:
"According to our investigation results, the last time Manager Zhang appeared in front of others was when he left the cheap area in your moving carriage."
Chen An didn't hesitate at all, and said truthfully: "There is indeed such a thing."
"That day I was moving to the core area. Since I had a pregnant mortal wife at home traveling with me, I bought a carriage for the trip."
"Also considering that the low-cost area was very unsafe some time ago, and worried that there might be danger on the road, I found Manager Zhang the afternoon before departure and asked him to escort me for a fee."
"On the second day, after Manager Zhang escorted us to the entrance of the core area, he returned to the cheap area on his own, and we haven't seen him since."
These words are nine percent true and one percent false.
Several monks from the Bamboo Leaf Gang felt that there was nothing unusual after hearing this, and they immediately ruled out Chen An as a suspect.
In fact, from the beginning, they didn't have much suspicion about Chen An, they just came to visit and investigate.
First, Chen An had no motive for killing.
Second, Chen An's cultivation level was too low and he did not have the ability to kill Guanshi Zhang.
There is really nothing to doubt.
They still think that Manager Zhang's disappearance may be related to Black Iron Villa.
Because the undercover agent of Black Iron Villa they had been secretly watching, namely Guanshi Ouyang, happened to disappear on the same day.
They suspected that Manager Zhang was also an undercover agent of Heitian Villa. He should have received some news in advance and evacuated with Manager Ouyang.
Anyway, the disappearance of Manager Zhang is most likely related to Manager Ouyang.
In this way, after simply asking Chen An some questions, the monks from the Bamboo Leaf Gang left.
As they were walking, the monk in white clothes at the head said somewhat unwillingly:
"Well, I originally wanted to take a long-term approach to catch the big fish, and use Ouyang Feng to find out the other undercover agents of Black Iron Villa and uproot them. But now it's good, and the success has been short-lived."
When the people around him heard this, they couldn't help but shake their heads, and they also felt very unwilling.
"well!"
The white-clothed monk sighed again, and then made the final decision: "That's all, start closing down the Internet cafes tonight and find out all the undercover agents of Black Iron Villa known to the gang!"
the other side.
Seeing the figures of the Bamboo Leaf Gang monks in front of them gradually disappearing, Chen An, who was standing in front of the courtyard gate, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It was really dangerous just now.
Fortunately, these people's investigative skills are not good enough.
If this happened in the previous life, any person who had received nine years of compulsory education would have discovered through a casual investigation that he was lying just now.
After all, the moving carriage was blown up and all the luggage inside was gone. This was a big suspicion.
"Maybe it's not that the other party is stupid, but that the other party doesn't regard me as a suspect at all. After all, my cultivation level is too low."
Chen An laughed at himself.
Then he turned around and returned to the house, working hard in the alchemy room as usual.
There is no way, because he is short of money now.
Not only does he have to pay a rent of up to 100 yuan of low-grade spiritual stones every month, but he also has to save money to buy "Mandarin Ducks Flying Together" which costs up to 1,000 yuan of low-grade spiritual stones.
This requires diligence.
Of course, while working hard, he will also reward himself.
Find Gu Xinyue for daily communication.
Find Song Huaying to discuss different ways to become an immortal.
Live a fulfilling and comfortable life.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.
The belly of my little wife Song Huaying is getting bigger and bigger.
Seeing this, Chen An reduced his alchemy time and spent more time with her. He often took her for walks in the yard and chatted with her about children.
[Husband and wife relationship +1+1+1+1+1...]
That night, Song Huaying was resting in bed, and Chen An sat beside her and told her stories to help her fall asleep.
They are all about love stories from past lives.
For example, Romance of the West Chamber, Butterfly Lovers, Cowherd and Weaver Girl, White Snake Xu Xian, Chang'e Flying to the Moon, Peacock Flying Southeast, etc.
Song Huaying was so fascinated by it that she couldn't stop.
[You patiently tell your wife Song Huaying a bedtime love story, and the relationship between the couple will be +1. 】
"Okay, let's stop talking about it tonight. I'll talk to you again tomorrow night. Ying'er should go to bed early."
Seeing that the time was almost up, Chen An urged Song Huaying to rest early.
Song Huaying was addicted to hearing this, she immediately hugged his arm and said coquettishly:
"Husband, I want to know if Xu Xian and White Snake are together in the end. Please tell me more, otherwise I won't be able to sleep."
Looking at his little wife's appearance, Chen An couldn't help but think of himself who often stayed up all night reading novels in his previous life.
In the dim student dormitory, I huddled under the quilt, looking at how many hours I could sleep, and thinking that I would sleep in half an hour more.
As a result, as I watched, it was dawn.
Therefore, he knew very well that if he continued to talk, his little wife would definitely continue to be coquettish and want to listen until dawn the next day.
In order to prevent this situation from happening, Chen An chose to tell her the ending of the story in one step, telling her a comedy ending based on her taste.
It is said that Fahai was moved by the love between Xu Xian and Bai Niangzi, and chose to fulfill the two of them so that they could stay together forever and have children and grandchildren.
Song Huaying was very satisfied with the ending.
But after listening to it, he didn't go to sleep obediently.
Instead, he said coquettishly:
"Husband, I'm hungry and want to have a midnight snack~"
"Ying'er, you've gone too far."
"But husband, I'm really hungry."
"Okay, then I'll go to the kitchen and cook it for you, but you must go to bed after eating."
"My husband is the best!"
"What do you want to eat?"
"I want to eat my husband~"
Song Huaying looked at Chen An with her beautiful eyes filled with water and smiled slyly.
Chen An flicked her forehead and said, "You girl, read less of that kind of books in the future."
"But my husband obviously likes it very much."
"One yard owned by a yard."
"I don't care, I just want to eat."
"..."
[You and your wife Song Huaying spend the night communicating and discussing different ways to become immortals, and your relationship as a couple will be +1. 】
The next day, early morning.
Chen An came out of Song Huaying's room.
I plan to wash up, have breakfast cooked by Gu Xinyue, and then go to make alchemy.
But after breakfast, Gu Xinyue refused to let him leave.
"Husband, are you sleepy?"
"What's wrong?"
Chen An was a little confused by the question.
Gu Xinyue pursed her thin lips and said, "It's nothing, I just want to know, husband, if you are sleepy."
"My husband just woke up, he must not be sleepy."
"Husband, you are sleepy."
"?"
"You sleepy."
Gu Xinyue said with a somewhat stubborn expression.
Chen An understood.
Daqing, this scumbag concubine wanted me to sleep with her in the room.
I guess it was because he stayed at Song Huaying's place all night last night, which made this Bingzhazi feel unbalanced.
Go back to bed in the morning.
After thinking about this, Chen An felt dumbfounded.
Seeing that her husband was unmoved, Gu Xinyue became a little anxious and hinted at him crazily again:
"Husband, you are sleepy."
"Yes, yes, my husband is very sleepy. Let's go. Yue'er will accompany my husband to sleep in his cage."
"Um."
After one stick of incense.
[You and your wife Gu Xinyue have an in-depth communication and make efforts to spread the branches, and the strength of your spiritual consciousness will be +1. 】
"Creak——"
Chen An walked out of Gu Xinyue's room with a refreshed look on his face.
I originally wanted to make alchemy.
But from last night to now, I really don’t want to waste any more.
He decided to go outside first, breathe some fresh air, relax his mind, and then come back to make alchemy.
Come outside.
Chen An unconsciously looked at the house of his neighbor Wen Zhiyun.
This beautiful menopausal woman is really just as Manager Zhang said, she is an ascetic monk.
Ever since she blocked the door in the morning to question him half a month ago, I haven't seen her again in the following days.
Not even a shadow can be seen.
I don’t know if she has stayed at home and never came out.
"It seems that I was lucky enough to see her the first few times."
Chen An shook his head and smiled bitterly.
He originally wanted to seduce this beautiful woman and see if he could trick her into becoming a Taoist companion.
Because he was thinking that since this beautiful woman is an ascetic monk, her strength should be cultivation.
Then if you can become a Taoist companion with her and have in-depth communication in the room together, wouldn't it mean that you can directly improve your cultivation by +1?
In this way, the efficiency of cultivation is greatly improved.
I think so.
But judging from the current situation, this is somewhat unrealistic.
Because this beautiful woman is too homely.
It's been so many days, I haven't even left the house once, and even if I want to seduce her, I can't find a way to do it.
Unless, like last time, when she and Gu Xinyue were communicating their feelings all night long, they made the noise louder, making this beautiful woman sleepless all night, and couldn't help but come over to block the door the next morning to accuse her.
In other words, if you take the initiative to find her, you will most likely get scolded.
Just when Chen An was thinking about these things.
A man's figure suddenly appeared on the wall of Wen Zhiyun's house.
He was sneaky and didn't know what he wanted to do.
Like a voyeur.
Like a flower picker.
Chen An squinted his eyes and was surprised to find that this sneaky man was actually a neighbor who came to visit him that day, a sword cultivator with a cultivation level as high as the seventh level of Qi Refining.
