Chapter 207 Renting
"Dear guest, what do you think of this house?"

Zhang Yuan did not give a direct answer to the broker's respectful question.

He walked back and forth in the yard and suddenly asked, "What's the story behind this house?"

Four or five days ago, Zhang Yuan not only obtained the Qigong method from Taoist Xuancheng, but also became the guardian of the Heavenly King Palace.

Then they looked for a place to live in the Xia Ruins.

But it's not easy.

Although the ruins city is large, it accommodates hundreds of thousands of people. In addition, it is an abandoned capital city, so the living conditions are not as good as those outside the city. It is very tense and crowded.

But people are willing to move into the city, which leads to very high housing prices in the ruins.

Especially in Zhongxu, it is no exaggeration to say that every inch of land is worth a lot of money.

Zhang Yuan originally wanted to buy a house in Zhongxu, but he found that he couldn't even afford to rent a decent small house.

Not to mention buying it.

Therefore, he could only set his target near Zhongxu.

Then, accompanied by a real estate agent, I looked for houses for three consecutive days.

The results were not very satisfactory.

Either the house itself is terrible, or the landlord is asking for an exorbitant amount of money.

Although Zhang Yuan still had a lot of money in his hands, he was unwilling to be taken advantage of.

You have to know that as a guardian outside the Heavenly King's Palace, he does not receive any salary and has to rely on himself to make a living.

Until today. The broker took Zhang Yuan to see this house.

But it was unexpectedly good!
The most important thing is that the rent of twenty taels per month is really cheap.

You should know that although the area of ​​this house is not large, the living conditions are quite luxurious with the front yard, backyard, left and right wing rooms.

The house is fully furnished and basically ready for you to move in.

Considering the location, the rent was inconsistent with Zhang Yuan’s previous understanding!

He guessed there must be something fishy going on.

Sure enough, the broker quickly apologized with a smile, "Sure enough, I can't hide it from your discerning eyes. Actually, I was just about to say that the owner of this house had some disputes with Wuwei Clan, so they found another place to live."

"I absolutely dare not conceal anything about such a thing!"

After the broker's explanation, Zhang Yuan realized that the landlord was in trouble and had no choice but to rent out the house at a low price.

Xiaxu is divided into five areas: east, south, west, north and center, including the larger outer area, which has long been divided and occupied by gangs and family forces of all sizes.

The current stable situation of this border city comes from the balance formed after a long-term struggle between different forces!
Like Xishanji, it was originally independent of Xiaxu.

Still can't escape the open and covert fighting among gangs.

The area where this house is located is the territory under the jurisdiction of Wuwei Gate!
It is normal for the original landlord to run away because he can't afford to offend.

But Zhang Yuan did not believe the broker's statement that he "would never dare to deceive anyone."

The truth is that you don’t dare to cheat yourself!
Under his cold gaze, the yamen man's legs trembled, sweat broke out on his forehead, and his voice became smaller and smaller.

I almost knelt down on the spot.

"How about this."

Zhang Yuan said calmly, "I'll rent it for a month at 20 taels. If there's no problem living here, we can sign a long-term lease."

This house is in conflict with local gangs and is obviously not a good choice.

But after looking for a house for a few days, Zhang Yuan was getting annoyed.

Moreover, the living conditions of this house are really good, so I decided to give it a try.

If the landlord caused a very big trouble and he was not strong enough to resist, he would only lose twenty taels of silver.

In addition, Zhang Yuan also wanted to see the weight of himself as the guardian outside the Heavenly King Palace.

The broker hesitated for a moment, then said, "Then I'll go talk to the landlord and see if he agrees."

Zhang Yuan nodded: "You go, I'll wait for news here." If it were someone else, the broker might not agree.

But Zhang Yuan was so powerful that he had no intention of resisting, so he obediently went to negotiate with the landlord.

While waiting, Zhang Yuan explored the house inside and out.

Even the cellar was not spared.

He was even more satisfied.

Another half hour passed like this, and the dentist hurried back.

The other party respectfully presented a deed: "Dear guest, the landlord agrees."

"good."

Zhang Yuan took the contract, which was obviously just written. After checking that there were no problems, he signed his name on it.

Then pay the agent one month's rent and corresponding commission.

The broker felt relieved when he got the deed back.

With a smile on his face, he handed the room key to Zhang Yuan and said some auspicious words before leaving.

This house temporarily belongs to Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan first went back to the inn to pay the room fee, and after retrieving his luggage, he bought daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil and salt at the market, and then hired someone to deliver them back to his new home.

By the time he finally settled down, it was already dark.

Zhang Yuan was too lazy to cook, so he had a sumptuous dinner at a nearby restaurant.

Compared with the remote Xishan Market, this ruins city is not as comfortable, but it is much more convenient in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

After dinner, he wandered around the nearby streets and alleys.

Only after getting familiar with the surrounding environment did I return home.

But Zhang Yuan did not lie down on the bed to sleep immediately. He lit the oil lamp, took out "Zhengqi Jue" and began to read it.

He had memorized the two major parts of this thick martial arts secret book, namely the general outline and the techniques, and was now reading the notes which had much more words!
According to Taoist Xuancheng, this "Zhengqi Jue" is a martial art passed down in his family.

Because it came unexpectedly and didn't cost much, Zhang Yuan didn't have high expectations for "The Art of Righteousness".

However, after reading it for a few days, he found that he had underestimated the level of this technique.

"The Art of Righteousness" is a method of cultivation for entering the Qi realm, which can be cultivated from the fourth level to the sixth level. The last part even includes the art of containing the spirit, and the content is very detailed.

This technique is moderate and peaceful, yet profound and broad, and can be adapted to any martial arts secret technique that allows one to enter the Qi realm.

Moreover, based on the "Art of Righteousness", there won't be any problems if you switch to practicing other techniques!

Super compatibility.

Of course, "The Art of Righteousness" is not without its flaws.

Its progress in cultivation is very slow, and it requires years of persistent hard practice to achieve success.

In addition, "The Art of Righteousness" belongs to the art of internal cultivation and does not include any combat methods.

But for Zhang Yuan at the moment, "The Art of Righteousness" is very suitable for him.

This technique first solved the problem of existence and non-existence, allowing him to have the most basic understanding of the Qi-entering realm.

The most important thing is that Zhang Yuan finally knew how to better condense and move the true energy, how to connect the meridians and tendons, and how to strengthen and release it!

In just a few days, Zhang Yuan had become a true fourth-level warrior.

Putting down the secret book in his hand, he raised his palm and suddenly slapped it forward.

A strong wind suddenly blew up, and an invisible palm force hit the wall ten steps away through the air.

Bang!
Along with a muffled sound, a clear palm print suddenly appeared on the wall.

Zhang Yuan closed his hands and smiled, feeling extremely refreshed!
