"Old guy, don't ask so many questions. As long as you have money, you can live in any room you want. The question is, do you have money?" the man said coldly.

"Fellow Taoist, do you really have a room in your hands?" Ye Xiaocheng was moved.

"Of course, I don't have room, why would I drag you here? I'll treat you to wine and meat." This person may have eaten too much dynamite, and his mouth smelled like gunpowder.

The people in front also looked dissatisfied, but no one dared to say anything.

They knew that this person was a local snake in the city, so he naturally had connections and was much better than newcomers like them.

If you can't afford it, just shut up.

"Okay, I'll follow you after I finish registration." Ye Xiaocheng was happy.

"I have to warn you, if you don't have enough spirit stones, we will throw you out at any time." The man said.

"Of course, if I run out of spiritual stones, I will leave myself without throwing them away."

Although Ye Xiaocheng felt that this person spoke harshly, there was nothing wrong with him. If he stayed in an inn anytime without a spiritual stone, he would be kicked out.

"Then come with me." The man said stiffly.

"Follow you? I have to register." Ye Xiaocheng said.

"Just follow me, and someone will naturally register you. However, registration on behalf of an agent requires the hard work of two spiritual stones."

"Okay, let's go."

Ye Xiaocheng thought to himself: This is what people often say, money can make the world go round. As long as there are spiritual stones, anything can be solved easily.

The problem he faced at the moment was personal safety. No matter how many spiritual stones he had, it couldn't be solved. What was the use of talking about money?

Ye Xiaocheng followed this person to a residential area, which can be said to be a wealthy area in Fang City.

While walking, this person introduced to Ye Xiaocheng that so many people came to the city all at once, and the inn had no rooms at all, so they all went to rent rooms. Now that there are no more rooms to rent, they have to ask for rooms at a high price.

The owners of these wealthy areas in Fang City also want to take the opportunity to make a little fortune, so they sell their extra rooms at high prices. Even a warehouse where firewood is usually piled costs two spiritual stones a night, and a normal room costs ten spiritual stones. one night.

Ye Xiaocheng heard what he said and felt that it was reasonable for the actual situation to be like this.

"Friend, how many days are you planning to stay? How many spiritual stones do you have on hand?" the man asked halfway.

Although Ye Xiaocheng had little cultivation experience, he knew that this was a capital verification, so he opened the storage bag and showed it to him.

The man stretched his head and looked at the things inside, his expression slightly disappointed, but he didn't say anything.

The spiritual stones that Ye Xiaocheng put in his storage bag were only over a hundred yuan, but those low-grade magic weapons and low-level talismans were also worth several hundred yuan. For a casual cultivator at the third level of Qi training, this net worth was considered acceptable. .

"Even if you mortgage all these things, you can only live here for a month. After all, you still have to eat and drink every day." The man said.

"No problem, I'll stay here at night and go out to earn spiritual stones during the day." Ye Xiaocheng replied.

"Then do you have any money-making skills?"

"Yes, I am a low-level talisman master. Although I have just started, I can still make low-level talismans. Look, these talismans are made by me myself." Ye Xiaocheng said.

He took out some talismans and showed them to the man.

After looking at it, the man asked in surprise: "Did you really make these yourself?"

"Of course, if you don't believe it, find the talisman paper, ink, and pen, and I can make it for you in person."

"If you really have this skill, food and accommodation won't be a problem." A smile appeared on the man's face.

The two came to a house. The man took out a jade sign and shook it, and the door opened.

"We're at the place, let's go in." The man smiled.

Ye Xiaocheng didn't think much and stepped in.

You can't see clearly from the outside, you can only see it clearly when you go inside. This house is really not small, with a three-story building and a row of bungalows.

The small building should be occupied by the owner's family, and the bungalow is naturally for the servants.

The man led Ye Xiaocheng to a room in the row of bungalows, opened the door and let him in.

"This room is yours. How many days are you prepared to pay for it in advance?"

"Let's pay for ten days in advance. What's your name, brother?" Ye Xiaocheng took out a hundred spiritual stones and handed them to the man.

"I, Wang Xiaoer, let me tell you, there are formations arranged in many places in this house, so don't wander around. If you accidentally break into the formation, you may die." Wang Xiaoer put away the spirit stone. warned.

Ye Xiaocheng responded, but said in his heart: Is the formation amazing?

Although he doesn't know how to use formations, he is still a second-level talisman master and cannot even sense the fluctuations of formations.

For example, the formation set up at the gate is the second-level mid-level. Although Ye Xiaocheng doesn't know what the specific formation is, he can still sense the level clearly.

After Wang Xiaoer left, Ye Xiaocheng looked at the room. There was only a bed, a table and a chair, but it was quite clean.

Ye Xiaocheng had been on the run for several days. His energy had been tense and he had not slept well. Now that he was in a safe place, his fatigue and sleepiness suddenly came back.

Lying on the bed, I fell asleep without realizing it.

However, he still has some sense of security, although not much. He posted a warning sign on the door and window. If someone tries to break in through the door or window, the warning sign will make a sharp sound, and he will Can wake up immediately.

I slept until dusk when I was suddenly awakened by a sharp scream.

He hurriedly sat up and already had a diamond talisman in his hand.

"What the hell did you set up?"

shouted a voice outside the door.

Ye Xiaocheng recognized Wang Xiaoer's voice and hurriedly opened the door.

Ye Xiaocheng felt relieved when he saw Wang Xiao was holding a food box in his hand.

"You bastard, what the hell did you set up to almost scare my soul away?" Wang Xiaoer's face looked like a ghost at this moment, as pale as a ghost.

"This is a warning sign. It's a very common thing, not offensive." Ye Xiaocheng explained.

At the same time, he was also very proud.

This kind of warning talisman is not found in the general collection of talismans. It is his own unique invention. It took him half a year to successfully produce this kind of warning talisman.

After hearing that there was no aggression, Wang Xiaoer's expression slowly returned to normal.

He is not afraid of being attacked in general. What he is most afraid of is all kinds of inexplicable attacks. You have been hit by them and you don't even know it. By the time you are about to react, you might have heard the cough of the King of Hell.

"I'm here to deliver food to you, but it's only a spiritual stone for each meal. This is not about ripping you off, it's a fair price." Wang Xiaoer said.

"Okay." Ye Xiaocheng took the food box and gave Wang Xiaoer a spiritual stone.

He didn't know whether it was expensive or cheap to eat a meal with a spiritual stone.

He has never been out and knows nothing about the prices of items on the market.

However, he has no shortage of spiritual stones in his hand, and he doesn't care about the cost of ten or eight spiritual stones.

"Then you have a good rest. No one will break in here. Don't set up ghost things in the future. It can scare people out of their souls." Wang Xiaoer warned.

"Second brother..." Ye Xiaocheng asked.

"Don't call me Brother Xiaoer. I'm not a hotel clerk. Call me Xiaoer Wang."

Ye Xiaocheng curled his lips.

Who gave you such a name? Isn't it the name of the waiter?

"Brother Wang, are you the only one who lives in this apartment?"

Ye Xiaocheng tried to sense it, but found no one else's breath.

"Can I live in such a big house by myself? Let me tell you, this is the owner's idle house. As long as the price is right, he is ready to rent it out room by room. Didn't you see that I went out to attract people to come back to live in it? ?”

"Are there any rooms for rent in that small building? It can be more expensive." Ye Xiaocheng pointed to the small building and asked.

"No, the small building is where the owner lives, and it is not rented out for any money." Speaking of the small building, Wang Xiaoer immediately returned to his cold demeanor.

"Oh, I'm just asking. If you don't want to rent it, don't rent it." Ye Xiaocheng smiled.

"If you really want to live there, I can help you ask the owner." Wang Xiaoer felt that he was being too harsh and said in a gentle tone.

"Thank you very much, Brother Wang." Ye Xiaocheng said with cupped hands.

"It doesn't matter. As long as you can really afford the high price, the owner may agree to rent it to you."

After Wang Xiaoer finished speaking, he left.

Ye Xiaocheng opened the food box.

Inside are two dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, a large bowl of spiritual rice, and a pot of wine, which smells good.

Ye Xiaocheng was about to eat when he suddenly thought of something. He took out a poison test talisman and activated it, covering the food.

Instantly, wisps of green smoke began to come out of those meals.

"Poisonous, and extremely poisonous." Ye Xiaocheng almost jumped up.
