"Then, Senior, can I ask what you would like to see the Valley Master for?"
Dan Xing asked cautiously, his attitude also changing.
"Don't worry, I have no ill intentions. I just want to make a deal with him to speed up my cultivation." Ning Zhishui said.
Dan Xing finally felt relieved and told Ning Zhishui the answers to these questions.
In the yard outside the door, my aunt and second brother were scratching their heads.
I can't hear any serious conversation, but I can occasionally hear Ning Zhishui's thoughts.
The thoughts were disjointed and it was quite lonely to listen to them.
This is worse than not being able to hear!
"Aunt, what is the Tower of the Dead?" Ning Chengfeng asked.
"You ask me, who should I ask?" My aunt rolled her eyes.
But she has made up her mind that she will go and ask her senior in person later!
"But why do I feel like my little sister... is quite real?" Ning Chengfeng was a little unsure, "Could she really be the reincarnation of some powerful being?"
"How could our tiny Huying City and the tiny Ning family possibly accommodate such a powerful person?" My aunt sneered, not believing it at all. "This girl must have secretly read some idle books, so she can make up such nonsense, and it sounds so real."
"That's true. My little sister has a cute face, but she's actually the worst person." Ning Chengfeng complained, "I was tricked by her too many times when I was a kid."
The two of them were talking "bad words" together when the door creaked open.
"Zhishui." Auntie stood up, "My bracelet..."
"I've finished reading it. Thank you, auntie. Please keep it." Ning Zhishui handed over the bracelet.
Just as my aunt was about to speak, someone knocked on the door. The person knocked with great force, making the door bang so loudly that it seemed like it was going to fall apart.
"Aunt Fang is here again." Ning Chengfeng frowned. "She's the only one who knocks on the door like she's trying to tear it down."
"Go and open it. She just saw me come in with her own eyes. It would be inappropriate not to open it." said my aunt.
Ning Chengfeng hummed and went to open the door, "Aunt Fang."
"Oh, Chengfeng, we're out of our spiritual tea. Can I lend you some? I don't want to ask, but we have guests at home. I can't afford to be inhospitable, can I?" Aunt Fang's voice boomed. "I'll only borrow it for a few days. I'll return it to you tomorrow after we buy some new ones."
Ning Chengfeng forced a smile, "But we don't have much left at home..."
This family borrows things every other day and never returns them.
She always says she will pay it back another day, but forgets about it after she finishes saying it. If you ask her for it back, she will find all kinds of excuses to put you off.
If you don't lend it to her, this person will tell everyone that your family is unfriendly, as if you have bullied her too much.
In order to keep things peaceful, the Ning family would often hold their noses and suffer losses, but no one was happy about it.
"It's okay. Let us borrow it first. You don't have any guests at home, do you?" Aunt Fang's main characteristic is her thick skin.
"Who said I don't have guests?" Ning Zhishui walked towards the door. "It's fine to help others, but you have to take care of yourself first. Otherwise, if you starve yourself to death and overeat others, what's the point?"
Aunt Fang rolled her eyes at Ning Zhishui and said, "Hey, Zhishui, you're still a child. You shouldn't get involved in this kind of thing."
"Why don't I go ask Uncle Chen Qing and see what he says," Ning Zhishui said. "Maybe he knows your family is in trouble and would be willing to lend a hand."
Aunt Fang's son is about to marry the daughter of the Chen family. Her family is clearly marrying up, and they definitely don't want to be looked down upon by the Chen family.
Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Aunt Fang's expression changed. "Oh, what does this have to do with others... Then forget it today, I'll come visit you another day."
She laughed dryly, glared at Ning Zhishui, and left.
My second brother and my aunt were both stunned.
The Niu family wants to marry into the Chen family?
How come they don’t know this!
Ning Zhishui sniffed, "What's that smell? It stinks."
"Aunt Fang brought it here. She's probably making something new." Ning Chengfeng fanned the air with his hands.
Sauce!
Ning Zhishui suddenly remembered it.
[There was this incident. It seemed like Aunt Fang had just come to borrow our spiritual tea when her kitchen exploded!]
[It must have happened today. I remember there was a foul smell that day as well.]
[Her grandson stole an explosive talisman from somewhere and then, as a trick, stuck it inside the pot in the kitchen...]
Ning Zhishui couldn't remember small things, but she could still remember outrageous small things.
The incident of the neighbor blowing up the kitchen made the Ning family laugh for almost a year.
My second brother and my aunt looked at each other with suspicion.
Is this true or false?
Don't be too outrageous!
Niu Xiaoqiang stole the explosive talisman and then stuck it in the pot in his kitchen... How is this possible!
Although the boy is usually a bit naughty, how could he do such harm to his family? This doesn't make sense!
"Zhishui, you..."
"Bang!"
A loud noise came from next door, and because it was too close, the ground of Ning's house also shook.
Many people in the surrounding area were alarmed and opened their doors to watch.
"What happened? What exploded?!"
"There's an earthquake? Do we have to move?"
"What kind of earthquake is this? It's clearly the Niu family causing the noise. Look at that black smoke."
"What is this Niu family doing? Seriously."
"Serves you right. The family is not a good one anyway."
The discussions outside were quite loud, accompanied by screams and cries from next door, making it quite lively.
However, the Ning family was quiet.
Ning Zhishui raised his eyebrows with an expression that said, "As expected."
And my aunt and second brother...
The two looked at each other, and then couldn't help swallowing.
Really, really!
This is actually true!
"Fengzi, go check next door. What happened?" Auntie rolled her eyes and urged, "Why are you making such a big noise? Is everyone okay?"
Let’s go and see what caused the explosion and whether it is really related to Niu Xiaoqiang.
"Oh, I'll go right away."
Ning Chengfeng understood what she meant, agreed, and ran out.
[No one was hurt, but Niu Xiaoqiang was beaten up by his entire family.]
[Speaking of which, his kitchen exploded. Is he going to be extorting money from me again? I don't think Aunt Fang will dare come to my house again for a while. I don't know whose family is going to be in trouble.]
[By the way, it seems like something bad will happen to Lake Reflection City soon. When that happens, I’ll have to persuade the whole family to move...]
How can I convince them?
Ning Zhishui was thinking so hard that his head was spinning.
The more familiar someone is, the more difficult it is to accept the identity change of people around you.
She only needs to say a few words and Dan Xing will believe it obediently.
But if I tell the same thing to my family, they won’t believe it and will think I’m crazy.
By then, let alone successfully persuading them, I'm afraid it would be a blessing if they didn't lock themselves in a dark room.
I have to find a way to tell them about my second life in a way they can accept.
But what method should be used?
