Chapter 3 The wind, frost and swords are facing each other
Fa Li focused his eyes and immediately saw the man's face clearly.
“The person coming here is not good!” Zhou Xun was secretly vigilant in his heart.
It is Wei Shangren.
"Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou, you are back, Wei has been waiting for you for a full hour!"
Zhou Xun raised his eyes slightly when he heard this, and raised his hands casually:
“It’s Brother Wei, I wonder why you came to my humble house?”
“Brother Zhou didn’t come when I went to work yesterday. Out of worry, after asking around, I found out that Brother Zhou was actually fired, so I came to pay a visit to Brother Zhou!" the young man said with a smile.
"Brother Wei's kindness is appreciated by Zhou!" Zhou Xun said perfunctorily before taking out his token and opening the door.
Wei Shangren burst out laughing when he saw this:
"Brother Zhou, why do you have to refuse people thousands of miles away? Although you and I have some disagreements, we are working together, so why don't you invite me in for a cup of spiritual tea?" Zhou will not stay any longer, please do as you please!" Zhou Xun was too lazy to make excuses.
Wei Shangren smiled all over his face, glanced at the west, and said proudly:
"Brother Zhou seems to be coming from the West Square, he must be looking for a job, I don't know what? What if? Brother Zhou, don’t give up. I can introduce you to Brother Zhou!”
“After all, I am now a Talisman Master apprentice, so I still have some respect!”
"Brother Wei doesn't need to worry about this matter!" Zhou Xun calmly held the token in his left hand, injected mana into it, and fired a green light at the door.
Seeing that Zhou Xunyi didn't hear anything and his expression didn't change at all, Wei Shangren couldn't help but feel a little angry, lowered his voice and continued to stimulate:
"Brother Zhou, isn't he curious why he was fired? "
Zhou Xun chuckled when he heard this:
"Who else could be involved in this matter besides Brother Wei? "
Wei Shangren nodded proudly:
"Brother Zhou is indeed very wise. Four days ago, my brother was promoted to the first-level Talisman Master. After getting the news, I immediately found the manager and fired you. My brother's Because of his face, he naturally wouldn’t dare to refuse!”
Every Talisman Master is the core figure of Miao Talisman Pavilion, not to mention that his brother is only in his early twenties and has the potential to become a first-level high-level person in the future! The potential and status have greatly increased, far above those in charge.
So even if he was originally optimistic about Zhou Xun's stewardship, he didn't dare to step forward.
Hearing this, Zhou Xun smiled lightly and didn't take it seriously at all.
With the "Ning Chun Sutra" in his possession, he is destined to be brilliant in the future. A temporary setback is also a small pleasure on his way to heaven.
Seeing this, Wei Shangren said angrily:
"Zhou Xun, you are really good at pretending. Without the work in the shop, you may not be able to afford the rent of this house,"
"When you are kicked out of Hongyefang, you will have to live with those wild cultivators outside. You are precarious, and you may die in a smelly ditch one day. When the time comes, Wei will definitely give you two more sticks of incense. ! ”
“But I am different. Now I have become a talisman-making apprentice, and I will become a talisman master in the future. From now on, I will become the master of Hongyefang!”
"Then Zhou will congratulate Brother Wei in advance!" Zhou Xun laughed and strode into the door.
Looking at Zhou Xun's back, a killing intent flashed in his eyes.
"Brother said that if you kill a snake, you will suffer from it. If you attack, you will use all your strength to crush it to death. Only a dead enemy is a good enemy!"
"I can do it. If I kill your uncle, I will naturally kill you too!"
Wei Shangren immediately turned around and walked in a certain direction.
Back in the room, Zhou Xun looked thoughtful!
Wei Shangren's visit this time reminded himself,
With his character, he would definitely not give up so easily, and there would definitely be another way forward.
Fortunately, Wei Shangren's brother is now only a first-level low-level Talisman Master. He has not yet become famous and his influence is limited.
As long as they have enough spiritual stones to live in Hongyefang, there is nothing they can do to them.
Fighting is prohibited in Hongyefang, and the rules are extremely strict. Even if you have a grudge, you must leave Hongyefang before fighting, or go to the life and death stage of Hongyefang.
Besides this, any fight within the company will be punished.
Two hundred years ago, there was a casual cultivator in the early stage of foundation building. He relied on his cultivation to secretly kill an enemy. The monk died in Hongyefang. The four major families mobilized at the same time and finally investigated the foundation-building monk. The four masters of Hongyefang, Wu, Lin, Sun, and Li, personally took action, captured the man, and killed him in public.
From then on, Hongyefang was respected and a large number of monks settled in Hongyefang. As a result, Hongyefang became more prosperous and ranked among the top five in the entire Xu Kingdom.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xun felt a little relieved.
After a simple dinner, with some anticipation, I entered the quiet room and started daily practice.
The next day, just as Zhou Xun finished drinking the spirit rice porridge, there was a knock on the door.
Zhou Xunqi stepped forward and opened the door, and a fat figure squeezed in.
"So it's Manager Lin, why do you have time to come to my place?" Zhou Xun hurriedly asked him to sit down and made a cup of spiritual tea.
The place where Zhou Xun lives is Luliu Lane in the southeast district of Hongyefang. Manager Lin is the house manager in charge of Zhou Xun's alley, and he has a fifth level of Qi cultivation.
Zhou Xun has no friendship with him.
Except for collecting rent, the steward never came to the door at other times.
"I heard that you were fired from Miaofu Pavilion?" Manager Lin picked up the spiritual tea given to him by Zhou Xunchui in his left hand, blew it gently, and then took a sip.
"Yes, Manager Lin is very knowledgeable about the news!" Zhou Xun replied calmly.
Steward Lin nodded and said straight to the point:
"I'm sure you can guess why I'm here. I'm collecting next year's rent, but" the fat steward paused, with a hint of complexity in his eyes, and glanced at Zhou Xun.
“But someone gave me a message from above that I will no longer rent this house to you.”
“But I, Lin, am such a controlled person. What about this house? I’ll still rent it to you, but the rent will increase by 50%, otherwise I won’t be able to explain it!”
“It’s up to you to decide whether to rent or not!”
After saying that, he picked up the spiritual tea and took a sip.
“Fifty percent!” After hearing this number, Zhou Xun remained silent for a long time before asking:
“I wonder if the person who delivered the message is named Wei?”
"That's right! That person advanced to become a Talisman Master at the age of twenty-three. He is very popular. There is a good chance that he will advance to the first level in the future. I advise you not to go against this person!"
< br>"Taler Master?"
"Yes, that person successfully advanced to Talisman Master three days ago!"
So that's the case, Zhou Xun instantly realized that he was from Miaofu Pavilion, how could he not know the status of this high-grade Talisman Master?
It is definitely an existence that is no less than perfect in practicing Qi.
No wonder he was fired so quickly.
“Thank you for the advice from the manager. Zhou remembered it. I rented this house!”
Hongyefang is the cheapest house in the Southeast District, and I can't afford to rent anywhere else except here.
Zhou Xun gave a gift and immediately took out 150 spirit essences and put them down gently.
Guanshi Lin checked everything correctly, put it away and left.
After Manager Lin left, Zhou Xun fell into deep thought.
Sure enough, as soon as the Wei brothers took action, they hit themselves within seven inches.
Fortunately, Manager Lin was very helpful, otherwise he would not be able to rent a house, so he would have to live outside Hongyefang, relying on his second-level Qi training.
The Wei brothers only need to spread the news that they are from Baifu Pavilion and have accumulated a large number of spiritual stones in their hands, and they will definitely die without a burial place.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xun felt a chill in his heart.
“I still underestimated them. I didn’t expect that Wei Shangren, who usually cheats and tricks, has such scheming intentions!”
“We must get rid of them when we have the chance, otherwise we will never have peace. !
