Chapter 27 Moving to a New Home The person who came from the Mu family was not Mu Chunfeng, but an older man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties, but was definitely older in reality. His cultivation level is not very high, probably not in the late stage of Qi Refining, at most the sixth level of Qi Refining. At his age, he has not yet broken through to the late stage of Qi Refining. In comparison, Xiao Changqing has already reached the fourth level of Qi Refining at the age of 35. In fact, he is inferior. But although the old monk from the Mu family seemed to have a good attitude towards Xiao Changqing, he actually had a condescending attitude. As a cultivator from a foundation-building family, he does have a sense of superiority in Nanshanfang. When facing non-foundation-building families or independent cultivators, he thinks he is superior. People like Mu Chunfeng are actually a minority. Xiao Changqing didn't care about it, he just asked: "Can you give me two days, I will go find a new cave first, if it's fast, I can move out tomorrow." Although Xiao Changqing had not expected that the Mu family would give him such a short time and would take back the right to live in the cave so quickly, he would not be so impatient as to refuse to leave. After all, the cave belongs to someone else. It was originally given to myself as a gift for temporary residence.
The situation of the Mu family is not very good now, and my own performance is not very impressive, so it is understandable that I take back the cave. But the incident happened suddenly, and he didn't have time to rent a new cave, and moving would take time. "Do we have to wait until tomorrow to move out?" The Mu family cultivator had been maintaining basic politeness, but now he didn't want to pretend anymore and said unhappily, "Just pack up and put your things into the storage bag, and then go find a new cave." Xiao Changqing said embarrassedly: "I don't have a storage bag." He wanted to use a storage bag for moving, but storage bags were not rare items for the cultivators from these foundation-building families. But for independent cultivators, and even most of the local cultivators in Nanshanfang, they cannot afford it. Storage bags are much more expensive than ordinary magic tools and robes. Even the smallest storage bag, one meter square, requires more than ten mid-grade spirit stones. That is thousands of low-grade spirit stones. How much is Xiao Changqing's annual salary? Even if he saves all the money without eating or drinking, he still can't afford it. Not to mention, in order to improve his cultivation, he would take pills regularly to speed up his cultivation, and he would not be able to save even half of it every month. "You don't even have a storage bag?" The old cultivator of the Mu family said with a bit of disdain on his face, "Anyway, the order I received is to take back the cave today, so I definitely can't wait for you until tomorrow. If you don't have a storage bag, then you should rent a new cave now and then come back to move. In any case, I will come to take back the cave before dark." Xiao Changqing took a deep breath, suppressed his inner dissatisfaction, and said "OK" with a cold face. There is no problem moving away. Even if he moved out, after all, he had paid a year's rent for free, so he could still accept the Mu family's favor. If he has the chance in the future, he will not hesitate to pay back this year's rent double in various ways. But now the old cultivator's demeanor really makes people angry. It's not like I don't want to move out. I can't wait even a day. Do I need to be kicked out like this? Before the old cultivator left, Xiao Changqing asked, "Did your eldest lady ask you to take back the cave?" The old cultivator sneered upon hearing this and said, "Boy, don't expect our young lady to show you extra favor and let you continue to stay here for free. To tell you the truth, even if the young lady comes back, she can't make the decision on this matter. This is a collective decision made by the elders!"
"So your eldest lady doesn't know what happened today, right?" Xiao Changqing asked. The old cultivator was impatient, "Is this important? Hurry up and find a cave, you can't live here anyway." Xiao Changqing nodded and didn't say anything more. It seems that Mu Chunfeng doesn't know what happened today. In this case, it would be much simpler, no need to worry about it. From now on, I only need to think about Mu Chunfeng's feelings, not the Mu family's feelings. This point needs to be made clear. Xiao Changqing doesn't like to owe favors to others. You must repay whoever you owe a favor to in the future. …… …… First go to Lingfu Pavilion to ask for leave. Then go to the rental office to find a new cave, look at the house, negotiate the price, rent the house, and move. The whole process was not slow and was completed in the afternoon. It was still early when they released the control of the cave formation and handed it back to the Mu family. "After going around in circles, I finally arrived at the D-level cave." Xiao Changqing looked at the small house in front of him, which covered an area of about 100 square meters, roughly equivalent to a three-bedroom apartment in his previous life. It’s not that bad. It’s much better than the shantytown I just crossed over a year ago. Totally enough. It's just that I was used to living in a 'big villa' with a courtyard in a Class C cave house, so returning to this 'commercial tube building', there is a little gap. Afterwards, Xiao Changqing practiced the Changsheng Gong in the training room. "Compared to the previous cave, the cultivation speed is between 10% and 20% slower." Half an hour later, Xiao Changqing finished his practice and estimated the concentration of spiritual energy in the D-level cave. “This speed is within an acceptable range.” "After all, the monthly rent for this cave is only 12 low-grade spirit stones, which cannot be compared with caves with rents above . The difference is more than double." Xiao Changqing weighed the gains and losses. Even if he had money now, he could afford to rent the previous cave. He would also prefer to use the extra twenty low-grade spirit stones a month to buy some pills that would improve his cultivation, which would be more effective. Generally speaking, with his current level of cultivation, living in a D-level cave dwelling is more cost-effective. of course.
This is only limited to the current fourth level of Qi Refining. If you wait until your cultivation level is improved to the fifth, sixth, or even late stage of Qi Refining. Then living in a D-level cave is not cost-effective, and you must live in a place with richer spiritual energy. "It seems to be still early. Well, I haven't told fortunes for a few days. Today is a good time to tell fortunes and see if I should go to the market to try my luck." "If the divination is good, maybe I can make some money to make up for the losses." In the past six months, Xiao Changqing discovered the effect of the tortoise shell equipment and the first-level divination technique, which was much more useful than he had imagined. Even if he didn't need to go out on adventures and fight for opportunities like other casual cultivators. In daily life, a first-level fortune teller is also very useful! Xiao Changqing has now developed a habit of telling his fortune every now and then to see how his luck is doing recently. If the hexagram is not good, then for the next period of time, you should stay at home after get off work and practice, and don't go anywhere. But if the divination is good, then in the next period of time you can go to the market frequently to shop and try your luck. One day, you will reap the rewards! The gain may not necessarily be very effective equipment, it may also be picking up a bargain, buying it and reselling it, and making a profit by acting as a middleman. The best time was when Xiao Changqing spent three low-grade spirit stones to buy a water-based command flag magic weapon at the market. Jiang Jiuyue saw it by chance while he was at work, and bought it from Xiao Changqing for thirty-five low-grade spirit stones. With one buy and one sell, the price increased more than tenfold. There are not many opportunities to make big money like this, only once. But all in all, Xiao Changqing had earned nearly sixty low-grade spirit stones as a second-hand dealer in the past six months. That's half of his salary. It also made up for the loss of his daily drawing of cleaning talismans. It’s a pity that I still haven’t found any equipment that has the ultimate effect of some talismans. (End of this chapter)
