Chapter Ten Thunder Swordsmanship(1/2)
"Alas! Life will be difficult in the future! I remember when I first moved here a few years ago, three months of rent only cost one spiritual stone!"
Jia An, who also came out to pay the rent, leaned against the door frame and sighed.
The current rent growth rate in Baishifang City is really scary.
"Does Fellow Daoist Jia know what's going on?" Xu Mu turned around and asked.
"It's not because of the Soul Refining Sect! Now the Qinghe Sword Sect on the front line is retreating steadily, and many practitioners are running back for safety! This is to make room for us!"
Jia An sighed again.
He has begun to consider moving further away.
Jia An's wife Li Moqing came out of the room, holding a bamboo dustpan in her hand.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, I just roasted the sunflower seeds! Take them and try them!"
Li Moqing smiled and handed the dustpan to Xu Mu.
A unique fragrance of nuts permeates the dustpan.
"Thank you so much, Fellow Daoist Li! I'll return the dustpan to you later!"
Xu Mu did not shirk.
This thing is not worth much, and it seems hypocritical to push it.
"No rush! If you think it tastes good, come back and get it after you finish eating!"
Li Moqing's chubby face was full of smiles.
Ever since Xu Mu sent the Qi Gathering Pill, Li Moqing's attitude has become better day by day.
Just when Xu Mu was about to enter the house to put sunflower seeds, the rent collector had already arrived at the door of the Li brothers.
Xu Mu stopped and turned around to look!
Creak!
The door opened from the inside, and two heads stuck out from the inside at the same time, one up and one down, as if they were connected together.
The face was pale without a trace of blood, and the proportion of black pupils was far greater than normal. At first glance, it looked like there were no whites in the eyes, and they were horrifyingly empty.
A hand that was whiter than a woman's, holding a low-grade spiritual stone, stretched out from inside.
"Two spiritual stones next month!"
After taking the spirit stone, Yaren said with some fear, took a few steps back, turned around and walked towards the next house.
The Li brothers stared at Yaren, turning slowly until they saw him walking to the door of the next house. Then they suddenly turned back and looked at Xu Mu not far away.
for a time,
Six eyes facing each other!
"hey-hey!"
The corners of their mouths twitched into sneers at the same time, with a hint of teasing in their eyes, like a big cat looking at a little mouse.
Xu Mu's heart skipped a beat.
Do these two people know that I killed Sun Daocheng?
No, impossible!
He acted very carefully at that time. He had worked several days in advance, and with his invisibility skills, it was impossible for anyone to know.
The two are most suspicious!
After all, the three of them may have conspired to harm him.
Now that one of them died suddenly, it is normal to suspect him.
Xu Mu suppressed the throbbing in his heart, smiled calmly, and smiled at the two of them.
He is no longer the weakling he was when they first met. If the two of them really dare to fight, he doesn't mind letting them go around in pain.
Facing Xu Mu's reaction, the two narrowed their eyes slightly.
Probably surprised by his reaction.
No one in the whole alley was afraid of these two.
They still remember how Xu Mu was frightened when they first met.
The two of them took another deep look at Xu Mu, then slowly retracted their heads and closed the door.
Xu Mu also turned around and entered the house.
in the room
My wife was feeding Xiao Ling'er, with a smile on her lips and a face full of kindness.
Xu Mu put the dustpan on the table, bent down and looked at Xiao Ling'er who was eating hard, with a smile on his face as well.
The originally wrinkled and red body has gradually unfolded, and it has become a bit white and tender like a baby.
"This is from fellow Taoist Li next door. You can try it. I'll go to the kitchen to see if the meat is ready!"
"Um!"
Ye Yingying nodded.
Xu Mu entered the kitchen.
The earthen pot was making a gurgling sound, and the air was filled with the rich aroma of meat.
Open the lid, and inside there is a thick sauce and pieces of meat the size of walnuts, floating and rolling up and down.
Xu Mu picked up a piece, blew the hot air into his mouth.
The meat is fragrant and has been stewed until it becomes crispy.
"Although there are not as many seasonings as in the previous life, the material of the monster meat itself is already excellent! It can easily kill those so-called top-quality Wagyu beef!"
Xu Mu turned around and opened the lid of the big pot. Inside was a small pot of cooked spiritual rice.
The grains are crystal clear, and the faint fragrance is refreshing.
Pick up a small spoon and put it in your mouth.
Soft and sweet!
"This is called cultivating immortality!"
Xu Mu sighed in his heart.
It's not like before, I used to be a cultivator every day and my food was worse than that of ordinary people.
He filled a large bowl with the spirit rice, put the meat on it, poured the soup over it, and Xu Mu carried it into the bedroom.
"I'll hold Xiao Ling'er while you eat some food first!"
"Um!"
Ye Yingying nodded and handed Xiao Ling'er, who was chewing her thumb in her arms, to Xu Mu.
"Ms. sir, if we eat like this, wouldn't it be too wasteful?"
Seeing a large bowl full of spiritual rice and nearly half a kilogram of animal meat, Ye Yingying said with some distress.
In the past, they used to eat spiritual rice in small bowls as big as their fists. Monster meat was often mixed with other meat and stewed.
If you are not full, use ordinary food to supplement it.
"Didn't I tell you? I will never make you suffer again. You can eat as much of this stuff as you want! It doesn't matter if you eat it with your belly open!"
Xu Mu smiled while shaking Xiao Ling'er in his arms.
"Really?"
"of course!"
Ye Yingying's happy eyes turned into crescent moons.
She ate the food in the bowl until her stomach was slightly bloated.
"Ms. sir, I can't eat any more!"
Ye Yingying handed the remaining half of the bowl to Xu Mu.
"Xiao Ling'er has gone to bed, you should also lie down and rest!"
Xu Mu took the rice bowl, reached out to wipe the sauce from the corner of Ye Yingying's mouth, left the bedroom and entered the kitchen.
Following Ye Yingying's remaining half bowl, Xu Mu finished three large bowls in a row.
My stomach felt full after eating, so I stopped.
There is still a small portion left in the pot, ready to be eaten tonight.
After putting away the dishes and chopsticks, Xu Mu went to the utility room and took out the sword-study body.
