Yan Chixue smiled, not denying it.

"The people from the Li family came to find you just now. So do you have anything to do with the Li family in Zhekkyu Fong? Who is Li Kunshuang?"

"I'm a cousin."

"I heard that you are in a bad relationship with Li's mansion. Li Kunshuang is the leader of the county test. The government tests the Yuan Dynasty. Now there are many people in the county schools who want to make friends with him. It's better for you to move out..." Yan Chixue looked at Li Buzhuo hesitantly.

Fortunately, Li Buzhuo was not trying to save face, so he nodded and said, "It's better to have less things than to do more. I originally planned to move out and concentrate on preparing for school."

"Have you found a place to stay?"

"No..."

“The rent in the newly locked city is very expensive.”

Yan Chixue bent her mouth and threw up the rabbit with cracked celadon ice in her hand to catch the piece, and then threw it up to catch it.

"My home has a second-entry yard in Lin'an Lane, and I live with an old lady who cooks. The backyard has no one for half a year, but it will be cleaned regularly. You bring three kilograms to live in the backyard and only charge five silver coin per month. How about it?"

Yan Chixue's tone was relaxed, but at the end she was still a little unnatural. She put down the piece and added: "It's a pity that it's a waste to be empty. I happened to be looking for a tenant this month, so I'm just looking for a tenant, so I'll give you a discount."

Li Buzhuo agreed to make a quick decision: "I will go back to pack my luggage and come to sign the lease tomorrow."

"I'm determined." Yan Chixue narrowed her eyes and smiled, "You promised so readily, I began to regret that the price was too low."

…………

The next day, Li Buzhuo hired two strong men and moved his luggage out of the county school.

Go out of Ximo Lane, cross Jinming Street, and take the hanging car.

After half an hour, I arrived at the junction of Wanzai County, Yong'an - Lixi Lane located between Shangxiacheng.

It is said that when the new city was not rebuilt, pear trees were planted in Lixi Lane. When spring comes, snow-white pear blossoms are all over the ground like long streams.

Now that the name of Lixi Lane has not been changed, the pear trees have been cut off, and only the towers are crowded when you see them.

In the cracks between the towers, there is a pier that passes through the air, which seems to be in danger, but is firm and solid.

The moisture gathers into water droplets, dripping along the protruding eaves, and pedestrians come and go with umbrellas.

The missing sky light in the upper city penetrates the eaves and is confused with the scarlet light in the lower city in the moisture, creating a kind of secluded nature that is separated from the human world and does not belong to the underworld.

Li Buzhuo looked down by the pier, and the dark downtown was like an abyss.

On the cloud bridge on the east side, the puppet as tall as a building was pulled by several colorful opera artists with long poles and ropes, making antics, attracting a large group of people to watch.

Sanjin stopped and looked in place for a long time, until the raccoon three-way dressed in the backpack pocket with his head exposed in his backpack, saying that these things were not even puppets, and that they were just showing ordinary people a fresh and profitable acrobatic. Sanjin reluctantly left.

Yan Chixue led the way, and soon arrived at the yard of "16" deep in Lixi Lane.

Moss marks are everywhere under the walls and tiles. A lantern is hung on each side of the narrow courtyard gate, three feet wide, on which two balls of vague orange light are projected in front of the steps.

There was a dog crawling in front of the steps, and the dog was staring at Li Buzhuo and others.

Until Yan Chixue opened the door with the key, the mechanical dog crawled down again.

This type of mechanical dog is sold at the market price of eight gold baht. It is a craftsman. It only recognizes the key but not the person. It is very popular among small households who do not need to hire a resident.

After entering the yard, Li Buzhuo found that the old lady Yan Chixue said was walking quietly, and her martial arts skills were not weak.

Seeing that Yan Chixue was going to rent out the backyard, the old mother had a bad face and wanted to speak but stopped, but she didn't say anything after all.

"Will it cause you trouble?"

When he arrived in the house, when Yan Chixue planned to rent a contract, Li Buzhuo asked.

"No, Zhang's mother came from home with me. More than 20 years ago, her man betrayed the brothers in the village and defected to the government. Since then, she has been particularly repulsive of outsiders. The lease contract has been drafted, so you can sign and seal it here." As she said that, she dipped her thumb with a penis and pressed a handprint on the lease contract first.

Li Buzhuo took the lease and found that Yan Chixue was very interesting to write his name. When writing the word "Chi", the second horizontal line was to turn upward.

Li Buzhuo signed and sealed the documents, Yan Chixue collected the rent contract, and Li Buzhuo took his luggage to the backyard with Sanjin.

Just after passing the backyard gate, the old mother approached and said, "I said earlier that I would build a yard gate here, and it has been delayed until now. I will ask a carpenter to install the door tomorrow."

Yan Chixue waved her hand: "Li Buzhuo is a classmate in our county, so there is no need to be so careful. Zhang Ma, don't worry too much about this."

The old mother smiled and said, "What the lady says is what she says." She took a few steps and turned around and said, "I sent a letter to urge me again. When will the lady go back?"

"I have a clear idea."

Yan Chixue's face was not very good and left straight away. It was not convenient for Li Buzhuo to interfere in the Yan family's affairs.

There is a quiet room in the backyard, a study room, two bedrooms, and a kitchen. The quiet room is tidyed up for three jin to learn the arts of the organs. The study room belongs to Li Buzhuo, and each bedroom occupies one room.

After sorting out the residence, it was almost dusk.

Li Buzhuo three jin and two of them cooked some meat and rice straw and ate it. Li Buzhuo walked into the yard and looked over the wall of the courtyard and looked at the dim light among the high buildings. After counting the days, it was July 15th in two days - Fuli Ghost Festival.

On the Fuli Ghost Festival, the world is connected with the ghost world in the northern Yin and Fengdu, and the five rings of the city are open. It is rumored that the ghost merchants collect ancient artifacts in the human world. Tao Zhu, the top scholar in the poor family, found the classics written by the saint from the ghost merchants.

There are also medicines that are not present in the Gui Shang’s hands, which are useless to ghosts, but can help others refine their qi.

At this time, the Crow Santong flew over and stopped by the corridor and said, "You can pick some of the mortise and tenon made in three jin these days to sell. There are five live mortises that can be used on the waist and neck of the puppet joints. Each piece of three silver flasks will be collected."

"What do you want to help you?" Li Buzhuo asked.

Ya Santong hesitated for a moment and said, "No need, you can leave it for your own use."

When did the bird become so kind? Li Buzhuo wondered, "I really don't need it?"

Ya Santong sneered: "Why are you generous? You want to make a name for yourself in Xinfeng Prefecture based on your family's background? There is only one month left before the county examination. The competition for the imperial examination in Youzhou is cruel. You can't drink water and eat all day in the examination room. There are also the Seven Saints Dharma statues and the Legalist Golden Seal to suppress people's hearts to prevent evil thoughts from taking the exam.

Candidates whose internal qi has not reached the level of internal strength will consume their energy and affect their answers for less than two or three hours in the examination room. Now that you have just started to refine Qi, you want to become internally strong in one month by eating meat. It is like a delusion."

Ya Santong did not exaggerate it, but Li Buzhuo practiced in his dreams and had already figured out the path of Puzhaotu. He was also familiar with it without mentioning the perfection of the fire. He knew how to practice best for himself and did not have to take detours. It was not difficult to become strong in one month.

"Has everyone else in the county school practiced to be strong?" Even the children of aristocratic families grew up to practice at the age of sixteen. Li Buzhuo remembered that Bai You only practiced the feeling of venting energy.

"Inner strengthening is just the second step in the process of refining qi. It is not difficult to have money. You can make do with the roots. If you use Zhuyucao to fast, someone will participate in the replenishment of the hundred-year fruit every day, burn Yuxiong Xiang and sit and forget to enter into meditation. In the twenty-one day of practice, you can strengthen the inner qi until you warm the internal organs, which is the state of internal strength. But... do you have the capital to spend a lot of money?"

"No."

"Then go to the ghost market to catch your luck."
