Strange And Troubled Times: Eternal Life Begins From Marrying A Wife

Chapter 11 Renting a House

"Ah, I caught a cold this morning by accident!"

Asan nodded slightly.

"Asan, why don't you take a day off tomorrow and let me do your work for the day!"

"Just give me five coins!"

Zhang Han looked at Asan lying on the bed with anticipation.

"Pah, I just caught a cold, it doesn't mean I can't work!"

Asan glared at Zhang Han fiercely.

Hearing the conversation between Zhang Han and Asan, Qin Feng's eyes lit up.

It was because of the heavy chores that he didn't have time to cultivate.

If he could hand over these chores to Zhang Han.

Then he would definitely be able to cultivate the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique to Great Accomplishment within ten days.

"Zhang Han!"

Qin Feng quickly came to Zhang Han's side.

"Afeng, what's up?"

Zhang Han looked at Qin Feng with a puzzled expression.

"Zhang Han, I have something to do these days, can you help me with my chores?"

Qin Feng spoke up.

"Five coins a day!"

Zhang Han excitedly held up five fingers.

"Deal!"

Qin Feng nodded slightly.

The monthly salary for the chores at Eternal Peace Medicine Manor was only one hundred coins.

Five coins was the market price for disciples helping each other with chores.

"Drip, drip"

Soon, there was a sound of knocking on bamboo poles outside the gate.

"Oh no..."

"This is Dark Beggar Anomaly coming!"

"Wasn't it Drum Maker Anomaly before?"

"Why did Dark Beggar Anomaly come again after just a few days?"

"..."

The faces of many disciples changed slightly.

They could tell from the sound that it was the footsteps of Dark Beggar Anomaly.

This Dark Beggar Anomaly was also a low-level Anomaly.

It appeared every night.

But Dark Beggar Anomaly required copper coins.

Every time it appeared, a broken bowl had to be prepared, and ten coins had to be placed in the bowl.

Otherwise, Dark Beggar Anomaly would rush into the room and kill everyone inside.

Qin Feng stood up, took out a bowl from the ground, and put ten coins in it.

"Drip, drip!"

The sound of knocking on bamboo poles quickly arrived at the door.

Liu Bao, Zhang Han, and many other disciples looked nervously at the door.

Fortunately, the sound of dripping gradually faded away.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Qin Feng, you're amazing!"

"If it weren't for you, we might have been killed by Dark Beggar Anomaly!"

"Weren't they all Drum Maker Anomaly? Why did it change to Dark Beggar Anomaly?"

"..."

The faces of many disciples were filled with gratitude.

Fortunately, Qin Feng reacted very quickly, otherwise they would have been killed by the suddenly appearing Dark Beggar Anomaly.

"This time, one coin each for the ten coins!"

Qin Feng reached out his hand.

Liu Bao and many other disciples had unpleasant expressions on their faces.

But one by one, they took out one coin from their bodies.

After all, this Dark Beggar Anomaly appeared suddenly.

The next day.

Qin Feng got up early in the morning.

He planned to rent a house in Eternal Peace County, practice in the house during the day, and sleep in the dormitory at night.

Nowadays, there are Anomalies everywhere in Great Wei.

Most of the common people live in houses with more than ten people, resisting the Anomalies together.

In Eternal Peace County, you only need about fifty coins to rent a simple house.

"Dad, I'm here to bring you clothes!"

At this moment, a pleasant voice came over.

Qin Feng looked up and saw Hu Qingya, dressed plainly, running over with a few sets of clothes.

Just as Hu Qingya took a few steps, she saw Qin Feng standing there washing up.

"Hello, thank you for saving me that day!"

Hu Qingya blushed and greeted Qin Feng.

"No problem!"

Qin Feng seemed to pay no attention at all.

"Qin Feng, what are you doing?"

At this moment, Hu Qingfu hurriedly walked over.

He first glared fiercely at Qin Feng, then pulled Hu Qingya aside.

"Qingya, I've told you before, don't talk to these lowly people!"

Hu Qingfu had always relied on Hu Qingya.

He hoped that Hu Qingya could marry a martial artist.

That way, their family wouldn't have to live in such poverty.

He wouldn't have to work as a servant in the Eternal Peace Medicine Manor.

"It was him who saved me that day!"

Before Hu Qingya could finish her sentence, she was pulled away by Hu Qingfu.

Qin Feng finished washing up and walked outside.

Instead of going directly to rent a house, Qin Feng found a clothing store.

He spent 35 wen to buy a coarse cloth garment.

The reason for buying a coarse cloth garment was that wearing the servant's clothes from the Eternal Peace Medicine Manor was too conspicuous and inconvenient for doing anything.

After changing into the coarse cloth garment, Qin Feng headed towards the western part of the city.

The western part of the city was where the poor people lived.

The houses there were very cheap.

It only cost a little over 50 wen to rent for a month.

After about ten minutes, Qin Feng spent 52 wen and rented a house in the western part of the city.

The house was very dilapidated.

But it had a large courtyard.

In the courtyard, there was a stone table and several stone stools.

"This place is perfect for cultivation!"

"I will strive to cultivate the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique to Great Accomplishment as soon as possible!"

After saying this, Qin Feng began practicing the White Tiger Fist Technique in the courtyard.

Once, twice.

Qin Feng tirelessly practiced the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique in the courtyard.

In the blink of an eye, five hours had passed.

During these five hours, Qin Feng only ate a few cakes for lunch, spending the rest of the time practicing.

[Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique: Basic Accomplishment: 112/500 - Form as fist, intention as spirit, qi as force, fierce attack]

"Increased by more than thirty!"

"As long as I continue to work hard for another ten days, I will be able to cultivate the technique to Great Accomplishment!"

Qin Feng was very excited.

If he continued to cultivate at this speed, he would be able to reach Great Accomplishment in the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique before his next trip up the mountain to gather herbs.

"It's getting late, I should go back first!"

Qin Feng took off the ordinary cloth garment, put on the servant's uniform, and then headed towards the Eternal Peace Medicine Manor.

Eternal Peace Medicine Manor.

The dormitory.

Qin Feng had just returned to the dormitory when he heard some unexpected news.

"Have you heard? Liu Cheng is planning to recruit a hundred servants to work in the mountains!"

"And he's paying ten wen a day!"

"Working for ten days is equivalent to a month's salary!"

"That's great, I happen to need money, why don't we all go together!"

"..."

Many servants were discussing Liu Cheng's recruitment of servants.

These servants were very excited.

Clearly, they wanted to help Liu Cheng and work in the mountains.

"Liu Cheng is recruiting!"

Qin Feng immediately fell into deep thought.

Liu Cheng was not a good person.

Moreover, in the camp at Soft Wind Mountain, Liu Cheng had killed at least thirty servants for no reason.

He was recruiting so many servants to work in the mountains.

He definitely didn't have good intentions.

These servants wanted Liu Cheng's high salary.

But Liu Cheng probably wanted their lives.

"A Feng, why don't we go too!"

Zhang Han seemed very tempted, as if he wanted to go and work for Liu Cheng.

"Old Zhang, you promised me that you would help me for ten days!"

"If you don't work, you'll have to return the money to me!"

Qin Feng extended his right hand.

"Who said I won't work anymore!"

Zhang Han quickly covered his money pouch.

Although Zhang Han really wanted to go and work for Liu Cheng, Qin Feng had given him money.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Soon, the sound of drums came from outside.

"It's the Drum Maker Anomaly again!"

Qin Feng's eyes were filled with doubt.

Yesterday, it was the Dark Beggar Anomaly who came.

But today, it was the Drum Maker Anomaly.
