"If you don't leave quickly, you will die soon." Zhong Yan's expression was indifferent. He didn't like this man and even had a natural hostility towards him.

He didn't know the specific reason and didn't want to find out.

For people you don't like, just stay away from them.

No, no one would get close to him except his sister.

"Do you know what's going on with you?" Mu Jinning noticed that the spiritual power in his body was being lost, and he quickly practiced his skills to try to reverse it.

I found that I couldn't control it at all. It was too weird, so I had to stand up and move away.

He stopped and stared at Zhong Yan until he could no longer feel the devouring power.

Zhong Yan replied unhappily, "I don't know."

Mu Jinning felt that he knew it, but seeing that he seemed to be rejecting and wary of her, she did not ask any more questions.

He dared to conclude that this young man had a big secret.

And the thief who left from him.

He turned and left, his steps hurried.

Most of the first-level spiritual power that he had cultivated with great difficulty was swallowed up by him.

In just a short while, it had swallowed most of it. It was really terrifying.

Why does he have such a strong devouring power? Is it because of some treasure?

He didn't consider the physical condition for the time being. This was just a lower plane. It would be fine if he had only one special physique, but how could there be so many?

Even in Fengming Continent, there are very few people with special physiques.

……

Since he had left the house, Zhong Ran had nowhere to go, so he simply went to the street again to buy some more medicinal herbs.

Anyway, she doesn't have much else now, but she has enough money.

However, it is broad daylight now, so it is not convenient to send it to the side door of Prince Ning’s Mansion.

Moreover, the Ning Wang Mansion was robbed last night, and I think the situation must have gotten out of hand by now. I'm afraid the security will be increased, so it's not advisable to go there anymore.

I'm going to be going out often anyway, so I might as well rent a small courtyard for myself to avoid being seen.

However, she didn't know where to find a yard to rent.

Walking aimlessly on the street, all I could hear was the discussion about the Marquis' Mansion.

However, the discussion has risen to a new level. Or rather, it is no longer about the theft, but about everything about her.

When he was born, his mother died and he was besieged by misfortune. When he grew up, he returned home and wanted to marry into the Ning Wang Mansion. He tortured and killed guards and servants, and beat his parents and sister.

Anyway, all the comments were negative. Judging from the tone of those people, if they knew she was standing in front of them, they would probably pounce on her to eat her flesh and drink her blood.

She frowned slightly. Why did the wind direction suddenly change like this?

But soon, she figured it out.

Considering how Chen's mother and daughter wished her death immediately, I'm afraid it was them who sent someone to spread the news, right?

She curled her lips in boredom and ignored him, but continued walking, trying to find a way to rent a yard.

He casually grabbed a middle-aged woman and politely asked, "Auntie, do you know where I can rent a separate yard?"

The middle-aged woman was dressed in ordinary clothes and had a cloth wrapped on her head. When she heard her question, she looked her up and down curiously.

"Miss, you want to rent a yard? Why don't you just buy it? I know there's a yard for sale, but I don't know if it's for rent."

Zhong Ran didn't want to stay here for a long time. She would definitely leave, so there was no need to buy a yard.

Renting for a period of time was just a transitional period. Once she had gained a certain amount of strength, she would leave.

"Then do you know how to find a yard for rent?"

Seeing that she still wanted to rent a house, the woman said, "Go to the brokerage firm and ask."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

A pawnshop? What kind of place is that?

She had only heard of the mercenary industry. In the previous world, people went to the mercenary industry to find anything they wanted. She had never heard of the brokerage industry.

But I think it should be a place similar to a mercenary company, right?

Then, she stopped another young man and asked, "Big brother, do you know how to get to the dental clinic?"

The young man looked at her carefully. The girl was thin and had a veil on her face, but her exposed skin was fair and tender, and her eyes were watery, bright and clear. She was obviously a beauty at first glance.

The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and a warm smile appeared on his face.

"What does a girl want from a pawnbroker? Are you looking for a job, a boyfriend, or a place to live?"

Zhong Ran nodded: "I want to rent a yard."

"Girl, you've found the right person. My family just happens to have a vacant yard. It was left by my grandmother, and I've been reluctant to sell it. I wanted to rent it out, but I haven't found a suitable tenant yet."

The young man smiled and said, "I think the girl is just right. If you don't mind, would you like to come with me to take a look?"

Zhong Ran's face showed joy: "In that case, I'll trouble you, big brother."

"Haha, no trouble."

The young man smiled and gestured for invitation: "Miss, please come this way."

Zhong Ran nodded slightly and walked forward.

The young man followed her, glancing at her from time to time: "What's your name, young lady? How many people are you planning to live with you when you rent the yard?"

"Because it was left by my grandmother, we don't want it to be destroyed."

Zhong Ran said calmly, "I'm alone and only come here occasionally to stay. Don't worry, big brother."

The smile on the young man's face became more eager: "What's the girl's name?"

"Li Ran." She called out a name casually.

"It's Miss Li. Nice to meet you. My name is Jiang Zihong. We can be friends in the future."

Zhong Ran just nodded slightly and didn't say anything else.

Jiang Zihong talked to her about some random topics again, and Zhong Ran just responded with a few random words every time.

Soon they walked into a quiet street, Jiang Zihong came to a yard and raised his hand to knock on the door.

"There are people cleaning here, so you can check in whenever you want."

Zhong Ran didn't say anything and looked around. It was quiet here, just right for her.

The door opened quickly, and the person who opened it was a short middle-aged man with half a bald head but sharp eyes.

Jiang Zihong quickly said, "Uncle He, this lady wants to rent a yard. I'll bring her over to have a look."

The middle-aged man nodded slightly and stepped back to let them in.

Zhong Ran's eyes swept over the middle-aged man. Although he was short, he was full of murderous aura.

Even if he tried to hide it, he could only hide it from ordinary people, but not from her.

She glanced at Jiang Zihong, who was looking at her with a smile on his face, and followed him in without saying a word.

The gate behind him was closed, and two men came out of the house.

The two men were of much more normal build, and when they saw her, smiles appeared on their faces.

"Hey, Zihong, you're amazing. You brought another one so quickly."

Jiang Zihong smiled and said, "Don't look at her veil, look closely at her skin and eyes, she is definitely a beauty, she will definitely fetch a good price."

At this point, he no longer cared about Zhong Ran and started chatting with the man with a smile.
