The ruins of the Tang Dynasty, the western suburbs of Los Angeles.
when! when! when!
There was a knock on the door.
"Wait!" A cold woman's voice sounded from the room, and a few minutes later, there was the sound of the toilet flushing.
Footsteps sounded, walking towards the door, the door opened, a woman in her early twenties with a cold expression poked her head out, staring at the elegant middle-aged man in his forties standing at the door, He said indifferently, "What's the matter?"
The middle-aged man transformed by Xiao Mu asked with a smile, "Is there a house for rent here?"
"You want to rent a house?" The woman's expression softened.
Xiao Mu nodded.
The woman stared at him for a long time, as if examining his identity. In the end, she probably felt that the middle-aged man transformed by Xiao Mu did not look like a vulgar person in temperament, so she relaxed, " No noise, no loud noises, no people coming home, the kitchen and bathroom can be used, but after use, they must be cleaned, slippers must be changed when entering the door, no water on the floor, no pets, no irritating food at home .”
"From seven to eight in the morning and from nine to ten in the evening, you can't occupy the bathroom."
"Well, there are only so many for the time being. I will tell you about the others when I think of them. Can it be done?"
"Are you the landlord?" Xiao Mu casually glanced at the cold young woman.
The cold young woman was taken aback, "No."
Then you tell me so much messing around
A trace of displeasure flashed across Xiao Mu's face, "Is the landlord at home?"
"Not at the moment, but if you want to see the house, I can show you."
The cold young woman seemed to see that Xiao Mu was unhappy, so she changed her attitude slightly, and pointed to the shoe rack, "Is it okay to change into slippers? Nobody wears the bottom pair of blue ones."
"Can!"
Changing shoes is of course no problem, Xiao Mu bent down and took out the slippers from the shelf, took off the shoes, and found an empty place on the shoe shelf to put them.
"come in!"
The cold young woman opened the door and invited Xiao Mu in.
Xiao Mu walked into the room and immediately smelled a cold fragrance.
The cold young woman closed the door casually, stared at Xiao Mu for a while, and suddenly asked seriously, "Are you a mutant too?"
Xiao Mu nodded, "Yes!"
"Yin God Realm?" The cold young woman looked forward to it.
"no."
Xiao Mu's answer disappointed the Gao Leng young woman, "The fifth realm of Mortal Realm?"
"no."
"Then what realm are you?" The cold young woman became impatient and didn't want to guess anymore.
"I am Zhengshen Realm." A faint smile appeared on Xiao Mu's face.
"Is it fun to joke around?" The cold young woman turned her face and became serious, staring at Xiao Mu, unhappy.
If you don't believe me if I tell you the truth, blame me
Xiao Mu had a faint smile on his face.
"Come in!" The cold young woman didn't ask him any more, and didn't believe him, and called him into the room.
The room was cleaned very clean, and the floor was mopped spotlessly.
The house is not too big, the windows are bright, and the light transmission is excellent.
With the thermostat turned on, there was a hint of coolness in the room, which made the clean room look cleaner.
There is a touch of spirituality throughout the house. This spirituality comes out from the ground, obviously because of the spiritual array arranged under the house.
Such a room is undoubtedly dedicated to mutants.
This is also a change that only appeared after the world mutated.
Before the world mutated, the rooms were only rented out to ordinary people. After the world mutated, some rooms were remodeled and rented out to mutants.
The house with three bedrooms and one living room is not big, but the layout is good. The door of each house faces the living room, but avoids the location of the bathroom and kitchen.
The cold young woman led Xiao Mu to a room on the right, stretched out her hand and opened the door, and there was a sense of coolness and cleanliness in the room.
The room is simple, with a bed, table, wardrobe, chairs, and a cushion on the ground for mutants to practice.
There is a spiritual formation under the cushion, which communicates with the formation under the house, and a trace of spiritual energy comes out from under the cushion.
"This is the room for rent."
The cold young woman began to introduce the room to Xiao Mu, "The room is counted by the day, one energy fruit per day."
"This is without opening the spirit formation. If you open the spirit formation, depending on the level of the spirit formation, you will be charged an additional fee of one to three pieces per day. You can freely choose whether to open it or not."
"How many days do you plan to rent, and when the landlord comes, you can discuss it directly with the landlord."
"When will the landlord come back?" Xiao Mu looked at the cold young woman. He was satisfied with the room and decided to rent it.
Pretending to be an ordinary mutant can cover up for him and avoid being targeted by the powerful in the heavens in the first place.
"About three or four hours. The landlord has gone out to run some errands. If you decide to rent a house, you can wait for her in the living room."
"Thank you!"
Xiao Mu thanked her, went out with the cold young woman, and waited for the landlord to come back in the living room.
The aloof young woman ignored him, but returned to her room and turned on the TV.
In the room of the tall and cold young woman came the sound of a noisy TV, but the tall and cold young woman seemed rather irritable and kept changing channels.
Xiao Mu collected his mind, stopped paying attention to the other party, and sat down on the sofa in the living room.
There is also a spiritual array in the living room, exuding traces of aura.
But this ordinary spirit array, whether it is opened or not, will not help Xiao Mu much, and it can even be said that it has no effect at all.
After all, he is already a righteous god, and the spiritual formation in the room is only prepared for the mortal mutants.
After sitting down, Xiao Mu began to plan for his action this time.
First is the question of identity.
The powerful men of heaven have already entered the country, especially Meng Xuantong and Lin Guyi, who are enough to make Xiao Mu fearful.
For his own safety, he had to conceal his identity.
Therefore, Xiao Mu deliberately turned into a middle-aged man and entered the Datang ruins as an ordinary mutant.
Even in order not to attract attention, the middle-aged man he transformed, like ordinary mortal mutants, found a house specially rented to mutants at the Tang Dynasty ruins.
After hiding the identity, the next step is to investigate.
What Xiao Mu wants to investigate is very simple. The main reason is the reason why the heavenly court mutants appeared in the Tang Dynasty ruins, and the second is the reason why the heavenly court took away the bones of the righteous god Zhu Qianhao, and took them back by the way.
There have been mutants killed by the Heavenly Court in the Great Tang ruins. These mutants are related to another ancient righteous god, Kuang Shenfeng, and they are all descendants of this ancient righteous god.
Kuang Shenfeng, like Zhu Qianhao, is the God of Lord Baifu sitting down, and he is one of the three gods of war.
Kuang Shenfeng is dead, and his bones are very likely to be buried in the Datang ruins, but the details are not yet known.
Xiao Mu suspected that the purpose of Tianting's dealing with the descendants of the Kuang family was the same as the purpose of dealing with the descendants of Zhu Qianhao at the beginning, that is, for the remains of Kuang Shenfeng.
This needs to be verified.
Xiao Mu plans to investigate Kuang's old house first.
The distance between Kuang's old house and Xiao Mu's rented residence was only two or three miles away.
In addition, since all the descendants of the Kuang family on the surface have been killed by the heavenly court, Xiao Mu still needs to find the Kuang family's branch or relatives and friends, and learn about the Kuang's situation through the Kuang's branch, relatives and friends.
Xiao Mu planned to visit Kuang's old house in secret first.
Click! Click!
The sound of the door lock turning attracted Xiao Mu's attention. Someone was opening the door with a key.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, the aloof young woman immediately turned off the TV and came out of the room.
Her footsteps were anxious and urgent.
The door was opened, and there was a creaking sound.
Xiao Mu looked at the door, and a petite and spiritual-looking young girl walked in backwards, and closed the door smoothly.
"Xiao Ling, are you back? How is your inquiry? Do I have a chance?"
The cold young woman's voice sounded from behind Xiao Mu, sounding urgent and full of deep expectation.
"Sister Qi."
The petite girl turned her head and called the tall and cold young woman. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Xiao Mu. Her gaze fell on Xiao Mu first, and she asked in surprise, "You...you are?"
The voice is clear and crisp, and the tone is soft, which makes people feel good.
"The renter, I asked him to wait for you at home. Xiao Ling, how about asking for me? Do I have a chance?"
The cold young woman rushed to help Xiao Mu answer, but couldn't wait to ask the petite girl Xiao Ling again.
"Hello! Excuse me, please wait a little longer. I'm sorry, but let me have a few words with Sister Qi first."
The petite girl, Xiao Ling, smiled at Xiao Mu apologetically, with a sweet smile.
"It doesn't matter, you say it first, anyway, I have been waiting for a long time, this moment is not missing." Xiao Mu smiled at the other party.
The petite girl hurriedly apologized to Xiao Mu after hearing the words, and then answered the question of the tall and cold girl Qi, "Sister Qi, I found out, you are ranked 279th."
"279?"
The aloof young woman froze for a moment, with a look of apprehension on her face, and then asked again eagerly, "How many people will be admitted?"
"Admission... probably..."
The petite girl seemed worried about hurting Sister Qi, and hesitated for a moment before answering hesitantly, "It seems... there are about a hundred people. Sister Qi, don't be discouraged, there is still an interview."
As soon as she answered, she realized that the other party must have been hit, and hurriedly spoke to comfort him.
Xiao Mu was confused and couldn't figure out what the two were talking about, but he could only listen helplessly.
"One hundred... one hundred people?"
The face of the cold and cold young woman immediately became extremely disappointed, and her expression was full of frustration, "Interview? what chance."
"Not necessarily, really, sister Qi, not necessarily."
The petite girl began to regret that she had told Sister Qi all the information she had inquired about, and quickly comforted her: "Interviews are actually quite important, haven't similar things happened in the past? If you do well in the interview, you will finally get the chance.”
Sister Qi said with a wry smile: "Xiao Ling, you are too young to understand the ways of the world. How can there be any good interview results, let me tell you, those people are all opportunities obtained by going through the back door and relying on connections."
Xiao Ling was stunned, feeling unbelievable, "Isn't it?"
"I've specifically inquired about it, and it's really true."
Sister Qi's face was full of frustration. After a while, she didn't know what she thought of, and her tone suddenly became extremely firm, and she said firmly: "I have to find another way. No matter what, no matter how much it costs, I will Get the real qualification."
"Sister Qi is so courageous, what are you going to do?" Xiao Ling wondered.
Sister Qi suddenly showed a smile on her face, "There is always a way, there must be a way."
real world? Qualifications to step into the real world
To step into the real world, you also need qualifications? How did it get involved with the interview test
Xiao Mu finally understood what the two women were talking about, but eventually became even more confused.
Has the system of the Tang Dynasty ruins changed
Xiao Mu still clearly remembers that when he stepped into the real world, he got the opportunity by participating in the real power seed mission.
And from the conversation between Sister Qi and Xiao Ling, it seems that there are some other paths to enter the real world now? No longer the only way to go is to join the True Power Seed quest
"Xiao Ling, do you know anyone in the Real Realm Affairs Office?"
Then, sister Qi suddenly looked expectantly at Xiaoling again.
Reality Affairs Office
Xiao Mu found it strange that there was such a strange department in the Tang Dynasty ruins.
The so-called Real Realm Affairs Office should be related to stepping into the Real Realm, right
It seems that with the deep mutation of the world, the world has undergone tremendous changes.
At least it seems that the difficulty for mutants to step into the real world should be reduced now.
Xiao Ling didn't have much confidence, "I know someone. I have a friend whose friend works in the Real Realm Affairs Office. But, sister Qi, his position is very low, so I'm afraid he can't help you much."
"No, you don't understand, no matter how low your position is, you can still help."
Sister Qi's thoughts were obviously different from Xiao Ling's, and she smiled with relief, "Xiao Ling, help me to contact that friend's friend, ask him to help me get in touch with the management line, and tell that friend, as long as he can Help me get in touch with the steward, no matter what the price is, I will pay it."
"Sister, you are really persistent!"
Xiao Ling was shocked by Sister Qi's actions, and said with admiration, "Sister, don't worry, I will help you contact that friend's friend."
Sister Qi couldn't wait to start urging Xiao Ling to contact that friend's friend immediately.
Xiao Ling took out her mobile phone and sent a few messages, looked at Xiao Mu while waiting, and said with a sweet smile: "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting, you want to rent a house, did sister Qi tell you the price of renting a house? One energy per day fruit."
Sister Qi rushed to answer, "I told him."
"What do you think? Is the rent reasonable?" Xiao Ling smiled sweetly at Sister Qi, then looked at Xiao Mu.
Xiao Mu smiled, "If I say the rent is unreasonable, what will you do? Will you lower the rent for me?"
Xiao Ling was stunned, then blushed, and whispered timidly and courageously: "One day... one energy fruit a day, not many."
Xiao Mu laughed again, "No one would think that the rent for renting a house is low, how much can you lower it for me?"
"This... this..." Xiao Ling fell into hesitation, and actually started to think.
"Hey! Do you want to show some shame? One energy fruit a day is too high? Do you know how many energy fruits a day are in similar rooms in other places?" Sister Qi suddenly asked Xiao Mu in a cold tone.
Seeing Xiao Ling being bullied by Xiao Mu, she couldn't bear it anymore.
