Chapter 149 A Sudden Change in Temperament

Thinking of the grief, Zhu Mei hugged her son and began to cry loudly.

Three days ago, her son happened to be ten years old. Relying on the influence of her husband, she took her son to the law enforcement team of Fang City to test the child's spiritual root.

Leave with hope and return with despair.

The child's spiritual roots were extremely poor, barely squeezing into the first-grade spiritual root category. With such poor spiritual roots, he was not even qualified to be a handyman disciple of the Beast Control Sect, and his path to immortality was basically cut off.

Thinking of being forced to leave her home where she had lived for more than ten years, taking her frail young son with her, traveling thousands of miles across mountains and rivers, surrounded by dangers along the way, to live in the ordinary world, Zhu Mei was filled with sadness, and she cried even more sadly.

"You'd better be sensible and move out by yourself. If you're still here at noon tomorrow, don't blame me for being violent."

After saying that, Zhao Dapeng walked away.

The reason why he dared to come today and drive away Zhu Mei's family was because he knew the spiritual root test results of Zhu Mei's children.

A woman who is nearly forty years old and at the third level of Qi training, and a child who is a waste of first-grade spiritual roots, are unlikely to achieve anything great. Even among casual practitioners, they are the weakest beings and are destined to be squeezed and bullied.

Seeing Zhao Dapeng leaving, a kind-hearted neighbor immediately stepped forward to help Zhu Mei and send the mother and son back home.

"Hmph! This Zhao Dapeng is so inhuman."

Sun Ru was furious, cursed in a low voice, and walked towards her courtyard.

Seeing that there was nothing to watch, the people around dispersed one after another. From time to time, they cursed Zhao Dapeng and expressed pity for Zhu Mei's mother and son.

But they only dared to say these words behind Zhao Dapeng's back. When Zhao Dapeng was there, no one spoke up for Zhu Mei's mother and son.

Even Sun Ru, who was still young, did not rush into Zhao Dapeng rashly.

It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Everyone sweeps the snow in front of their own door!

...

Song Wen returned to the room and tried to make alchemy again.

A few hours later, Song Wen, who had wasted all the remaining nine spiritual materials, felt gloomy in his heart. He sighed deeply, cleaned up the room full of fire, and walked into the courtyard.

The "Longevity Skill" progressed slowly, and the Blood Qi Pill could not be refined for a while, which made him miss the days in the Corpse Demon Sect and the feeling of rapid advancement in cultivation and growing strength.

No wonder there are so many righteous monks who cannot bear the loneliness of hard work day after day and the slow torment of improving their realm, and fall into the devil's path.

At this time, it was already late at night.

The night sky was as quiet as an ink painting, and everything seemed so quiet.

Suddenly,

A wave of spiritual energy came from Sun Daxiong's house next door, breaking the silence of the night.

A silver arc of light flew out from Sun Daxiong's courtyard, soared into the sky, and flew high into the sky. Finally, the spiritual power was exhausted and it dissipated hundreds of meters in the sky.

Song Wen narrowed his eyes, this was thunder in the palm of his hand!

With a sweep of his spiritual consciousness, he knew that Sun Ru had successfully cultivated the palm thunder.

At this time, she was jumping happily in the yard. She was inexperienced in the world, dancing like a child, but she did not dare to scream loudly for fear of disturbing the neighbors' dreams and practice.

Song Wen took back his spiritual consciousness. He had no habit of spying on his neighbors.

He turned back to the house and started practicing. If a teenage girl worked so hard, what right did he have to slack off.

The progress of cultivation can be slower. Anyway, he has plenty of time now.

The next day.

Song Wen, who was practicing, was once again disturbed by Ai Kun's knock on the door.

Opening the courtyard door, Song Wen said angrily.

"Senior Ai, if you don't draw the talismans well at home, what are you doing here? The Beast Control Sect wants you to hand in a hundred talismans every ten days."

Ai Kun walked straight to the courtyard without anyone noticing, sat down on a chair, and then said.

"I'm here to help you. I have to draw ten talisman seals for the Beast Control Sect every day, and they must all be middle-grade or above. My old arms and legs can't stand it."

Song Wendao said, "I can't help you. You know, I only know one flying talisman for middle-grade talisman seals, and the success rate is only a pitiful 50%. With my spiritual power and mental power at the fourth level of qi training, I can do it every day." It’s good to draw four, and I’ll also earn some meager spiritual stones for my daily use.”

"Just work harder every day, spend an extra hour on drawing the talisman, and help me draw two flying talismans. It will be a pity for me, an old man."

"No, that will shorten my training time. Besides, you are old. Every time you go to the fence, you are more energetic than young people."

The two were bargaining in the courtyard when suddenly there was a fierce knock on the door at the widow's house next door.

"Zhu Mei, pay the rent or not. Get out if you don't pay the rent. Don't think that I can't do anything to you if you hide in the yard."

It was Zhao Dapeng who came to drive away orphans and widows again.

Behind Zhao Dapeng was a thief-like, silly man. The man was submissive, like a child in a new environment, a little scared.

The rat-eyed man was half hidden behind Zhao Dapeng, but his eyes were peeking through the crack in the door into the courtyard.

He is Zhao Dapeng's younger brother. His brother promised last night that he would take him to his mother-in-law today, a mother-in-law who can sleep with him.

My brother said that although the woman was a little older, she was still pretty and had a yard.

It is a good thing that benefits both people and money.

"Squeak!"

The courtyard door was opened from the inside.

Zhu Mei looked cold and stared at the two people outside the door with stern eyes. She was completely different from the crying and overwhelmed woman yesterday.

I really don't know what kind of mental journey she went through that night. In just one night, her temperament changed drastically, as if she had been reborn.

Seeing Zhu Mei coming out, Zhao Dapeng's face became even more angry.

"Zhu Mei, have you made up your mind? Pay the rent or get out."

"If you don't pay the rent and don't want to move out, it's not impossible. Marry my brother, and we will be relatives in the future. As long as I, Zhao Dapeng, live one day, I will never need you to pay rent."

As he spoke, Zhao Dapeng pulled the rat-eyed man behind him in front of him and pushed him in front of Zhu Mei.

It turned out that this was his real purpose.

The two brothers lost their parents at a young age. The two depended on each other and survived with great difficulty.

Later, both of them embarked on the path of cultivation and supported each other.

But two years ago, in order to protect him, his brother was seriously injured when fighting with others. Not only did he lose all his cultivation, but his brain was also damaged and became less smart.

Zhao Dapeng, who felt guilty, wanted to raise his brother until the day he died, which was also a way to live up to the years of brotherhood.

But although his brain was not very good, his brother had the desires of a normal man, especially after he became less intelligent, he almost lost control of his desires.

Sometimes on the street, he wanted to touch pretty female cultivators, and he was almost beaten to death several times.

After Zhu Mei became a widow and had no one to rely on, Zhao Dapeng had an idea.

Since his brother had needs, he would find a woman to solve them for him, which led to the drama of Zhao Dapeng forcing Zhu Mei to pay rent.

Zhao Dapeng knew that it was absolutely impossible for Zhu Mei to leave the market with a ten-year-old child.

The steep mountains and dangerous places outside the market, the monsters that could be encountered on the road at any time, and the fierce robbers hiding in the dark, these unknown dangers trapped this orphan and widow in this market, and even wanting to live a secular life became a luxury.
