On the 28th, heavy rain fell.
Summer weather can change in an instant.
Unlike spring and winter, it is mostly drizzling.
During the summer months, when it rains, it's often a torrential downpour.
The continuous heavy rains have made the weather not only muggy but also somewhat humid.
afternoon.
Outside, the rain was pouring down, but inside, it was cool and refreshing.
Moreover, compared to the outside, the main house of Chu Qinghe was surprisingly refreshing because the charcoal placed inside absorbed moisture.
In this pleasantly warm environment, Yaoyue and Shuimu Yinji sat facing each other, each holding a chess piece. Lin Shiyin was still immersed in cultivation, hoping to improve her cultivation level as soon as possible. Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan had a bowl of mung beans in front of them. They used their true energy to peel the skins of the mung beans without damaging the inside, thus practicing their precision in using true energy and internal force.
Chu Qinghe, however, sat in an old man's rocking chair, swaying gently with the creaking of the chair, sipping his wine and enjoying the sudden storm outside the window in his slightly tipsy state.
It's hard to imagine that even people like Yaoyue and Shuimu Yinji would behave like ordinary women, huddled indoors during the sweltering summer heat and torrential rain, finding ways to pass the time.
Stirring up trouble and living a life of luxury may be exciting, but a peaceful and tranquil life is more comforting.
That's life!
Compared to fighting and killing, it's naturally much more comfortable to be relaxed and leisurely.
A moment later, the gaze shifted from outside the window to inside the room, focusing on the jellyfish Yin Ji and Yao Yue.
Looking at the two women who were getting along so well, Chu Qinghe couldn't help but smile.
Therefore, a strong body is essential for a good family atmosphere.
There are many ways to foster relationships in the world.
But the most direct approach is undoubtedly to be honest with each other.
Just like Yaoyue and Shuimu Yinji.
After several candid conversations, they gradually became familiar with each other.
Add to that the obedient attitude of the jellyfish princess and her constant coaxing of her with "Big Sister" all the time.
Because of her status as the "elder sister," Yaoyue would occasionally offer guidance on the battles of Shuimu Yinji's side.
Sometimes, when Yaoyue washes Chu Qinghe's hair at night, Shuimu Yinji would use the "Divine Water Technique" to make Yaoyue's hair more moisturized.
After more than half a month, there was no trace of awkwardness between the two women.
After thinking it over, Chu Qinghe turned his head back to look out the window, gradually entering a state of mental blankness.
at the same time.
Yushui City.
Amidst the torrential rain, in a small wine shop in the east of the city, a room the size of Chu Qinghe's main house, dozens of people were crammed inside.
The room was filled with a complex odor, a mixture of alcohol, sweat, and other distinctive smells.
If members of the Green Snake Gang and the Iron Sword Sect were here, they would probably be able to identify these people at a glance.
It turned out to be a petty thief in Yushui City who specialized in theft and burglary.
Every profession has its own way of doing things, and every profession has its own way of doing things.
Even beggars can gather together to survive, let alone thieves who make a living with their skills.
In any town, every industry has its own small groups.
The same applies to thieves.
This room, for example, is now filled with thieves from all over Yushui City.
Basically, aside from working, these thieves' favorite thing to do is gather in this house.
After all, they are all in the same industry. They pretend not to know each other in public, but behind closed doors, they not only speak politely, but they are all talented people.
From time to time, they can also exchange intelligence and information, which makes it easier for these thieves to select targets.
At this moment, a man was sitting in the far corner of the room.
The man looked to be in his thirties, slightly thin, and of average appearance, but his eyes were bright and gave him a shrewd and clever look.
Smelling the room's ambiance and listening to the surrounding whispers, the man wore a look of enjoyment on his face.
It felt as relaxing as being at home.
"Sure enough, this den of thieves is much more comfortable than Hua Manlou's house!"
After taking a sip of wine, the man couldn't help but smile with satisfaction as he looked at the obviously shifty-eyed men around him.
"Hey, third brother, any news lately?"
"Yes, there are. I heard that three merchant caravans from the Great Song Dynasty just arrived today and are staying in the city. I just don't know how much profit they can make."
"You've settled in? Where are you staying? It's not in the west of the city, is it?"
"Definitely not. If they were staying in the west of the city, what would I say? They're all staying in the north of the city, and it seems they only paid for one night's stay."
"Thank goodness, if it were in the west of the city, this deal would probably have fallen through again."
"Sigh, I don't know why, but the Green Snake Gang and the Iron Sword Sect don't allow us to go to the west side of the city. Last year, Liu Sanshou didn't listen to their advice and went to steal something from a house in the west side of the city. He was caught and died a terrible death."
"I think I heard it's because of Chu Qinghe from the west of the city."
"Chu Qinghe? That pretty boy?"
"Shh, are you tired of living? Keep your voice down."
...
However, just as the group at the table was whispering among themselves, the man in the corner couldn't help but turn his head to look at them.
After thinking for a moment, the man chuckled and picked up the wine jug on the table, walking toward the group of people who had been whispering earlier.
Half an hour later, as the man came out of the house, he raised his right hand and found that he had several money pouches in his hand.
