Chapter 115: The Haunted Police Station
Chapter 115: The Haunted Police Station
Skill: Wall penetration lv1 (1/30), mana consumption: 5
The spell named Earth Escape Technique - Youth Version by Tan Wenjie came from the No. 1 Mao in the World.
Gained from loot.
It can only penetrate a mud wall no thicker than 20 centimeters at a time.
Not to mention 20 centimeters, even if it was a 40 centimeters thick mud wall, if there were no steel bars, Tan Wenjie would never have learned this useless skill.
What he was thinking about was the little bit of "insight" he gained after completely learning a skill.
The hidden passive skill gained through skills is his ultimate goal. He now has only a "vague understanding of the Samadhi of Fire" and can light a cigarette without using a lighter.
The art of walking through walls is the most likely way to comprehend a skill that is somewhat related to "earth escape". As long as the appearance and temperament do not become earthy, it is not a loss.
Maybe next time it will be a small insight like “invincible in the world” or “invincible in the sky” that is not worth mentioning.
……
early morning.
The back door of the Tan Mansion.
A middle-aged man wearing a gray cloth with two patches on his knees and shoulders raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"Come on, come on, stop knocking!"
The back door creaked open, and a little maidservant with a scent of powder opened the door. She smelled the sour odor and immediately took two steps back, covering her mouth and nose.
The middle-aged man subconsciously looked at the little maid.
She is definitely a top-notch beauty in the village, but now she can only do the menial job of serving in the Tan Mansion. Even for this job, others cannot get a place in line.
Let’s not talk about how high the wages are. Now that it’s hot in the summer, the Tan family has already arranged for tailors to come to the maids and servants to take measurements and make clothes. It is said that they are two sets of “work clothes”.
The materials are of extremely high quality, and ordinary people are reluctant to buy them during festivals.
Not only that, the designs of the small skirts and clothes are also very beautiful. I heard that they are imitated from the school uniforms of female students in Shanghai. You may not have been to Shanghai, but knowing that they look good is enough.
Moreover, the food in the Tan family is all delicacies from land and sea. Not only do ordinary maids and old women have to eat meat for every meal, but I heard that the most comfortable life is the personal maids. They don't like to eat meat and fish, and prefer to eat delicate food the most.
It’s not that they have the right to be extravagant, but Mr. Tan, who knows how to enjoy life, would give the food that he couldn’t finish during each meal to the servants.
All kinds of fresh sea crabs, wild game and wild game, I heard that each meal costs several dollars.
There are many benefits provided by the mansion, such as rouge, powder, gold and silver jewelry. If you can please Mr. Tan, you will be rewarded greatly.
The little maid covered her mouth and nose and said, "Come in, follow me."
"Hey!" The middle-aged man nodded, bent over and entered the Tan Mansion through the back door.
As he entered the backyard of the house, he couldn't help but gasp. He didn't see much when he was standing outside the door just now. When he came in, he found that the floor was paved with patterned tiles and there was a small garden in front.
"Miss, is this the garden of your mansion?" the middle-aged man asked in a low voice.
"I'm not a lady, I'm a maid in this mansion." The little maid raised her chin, revealing a goose neck that seemed more delicate than that of the rich ladies in the village to the middle-aged man.
The skin is delicate and the flesh is as tender as green onions. Juice will come out with a light pinch.
The middle-aged man smiled apologetically, but muttered in his heart: "Looking at your arrogant attitude, I thought you were a young lady."
Then the maid said, "That's not a garden. The master said it was Feng Shui. I don't understand it, but there are many flowers and plants like this in the mansion."
They walked forward from the backyard and walked around the high wall covered with flowers and willows for several minutes. They had no idea how big the Tan Mansion was and they could never reach the end.
Suddenly, I heard a "boom" in front.
The middle-aged man turned his head and heard the voice of the little maidservant: "A new house is being built in the front, and a three-in-three-out house is being built over there. The master said that we little maidservants will be accommodated there in the future."
Hiss, three in and three out?
Let the maid live here!
His eyes widened. He had never heard of it.
"Haha." The little maid looked down on the other person for being naive, yet at the same time she felt smug.
Who else could know how much money Tan Baiwan's family spends every day?
Just the food and drink cost more than ten dollars, and the incense and candles consumed by the deities Guan Erye, Zhao Yuanshuai, Zhong Kui, etc. enshrined in the shrine in the backyard cost another ten dollars every day.
Not to mention other miscellaneous things, which cost dozens of dollars a day, and these are just basic needs.
The money spent in the Tan Mansion in one day is enough for three generations of an ordinary family to spend for one or two years, and they can even eat delicious food during the holidays.
Suddenly a fragrance spread.
The middle-aged man knew that he must have arrived. As soon as he turned the corner, he saw the huge kitchen. It was just time to finish breakfast and the cooks were already busy.
Several people were busy washing fruits and vegetables, chopping meat, kneading dough, and steaming rice.
The little maid pointed to the swill bucket at the corner and said, "That's it. You can't come at this time again. You have to come at five o'clock in the morning."
"I understand." The middle-aged man nodded repeatedly.
Suddenly, his ears moved, and he heard a few cooks chatting: "Didn't they say they were hiring again?"
"Why, who do you want to stuff in here?"
"My daughter-in-law is from the north and she knows how to cook noodles."
The middle-aged man was thinking, but suddenly he heard the little maid ask: "Do you know the night incense seller?"
"I know her, I know her!" He nodded repeatedly. Just as he was wondering, he heard the little maid speak.
She said, "Just yesterday, the master got really angry and kicked out all those people who were traitors and stole things. Some of them paid compensation and some were sent to the police station. They were in a hurry to catch them, and many things were not explained clearly."
The middle-aged man didn't think so in his heart, and thought to himself that maybe you disliked the dirt and smell and didn't want to talk to someone who was so smelly.
But he said with a smile on his face: "Leave it to me. Take me to a place now, and I will ask him to come to your house tonight or tomorrow. He will definitely not let you down." The little maid nodded slightly. That was what she thought.
Although she was not yet a personal maid, she also wanted to be close to Master Tan. It would be best if she could climb onto his bed, but she was afraid that she would have no chance if she got involved with Yexiang and泔水.
"Come with me. Let me tell you first. Yexiang has been pouring here these days. We will move to another place after the house over there is built."
The little maid pointed and said, "From now on, the mansion will use the flush toilet bought from the foreigners in Shanghai. It will also be convenient for you to empty the night incense."
After listening to her long story, the middle-aged man was confused. How come rich people have so many tricks when it comes to pooping?
"Sister, I just heard that our house is hiring?" the middle-aged man asked with a smile.
"Recruiting is not my business, and some things require the master's approval." She shook her head without thinking.
"My wife is honest and can endure hardships. I am not just doing this for the convenience of my family. You always hang around swill and night incense with your fragrant body, which makes the fragrance stink. Let my wife come in and help you, right?"
The little maid frowned and thought about it, then said, "I can ask for you, but if she is a sneaky and cunning person with dirty hands, our master will not let you off!"
"Thank you, sister. Thank you, sister!"
After leaving with the swill, the man immediately trotted home and told his wife the good news.
"Can I really work for Tan Baiwan's family?"
"What, you know that too?" The man looked at his wife in confusion, then he suddenly realized.
The mouths of these bitches are as loose as a pair of pants without a belt. No matter how tiring the work at hand is, their mouths will never be idle.
"You go there and do your job well, but don't be lazy or try to be cunning."
"Do not worry."
He carefully reminded his wife to listen to the maid, then he quickly went out to take care of Ye Xiang's matter.
Unexpectedly, my wife was hired the next day.
"What does it smell like?"
The middle-aged man saw his wife coming in with something wrapped in paper and a smile on her face. He thought to himself, "Did you steal something?"
"What do you mean by stealing?" His wife gave him a sidelong look. "This is the food that we can't finish eating at home."
She opened the oil paper package and found half a roast chicken inside.
"The gods in the mansion's shrine receive daily tributes from us servants. When I first went there, I could only take half a roast chicken, but the cook in charge of the kitchen took back half a pig's face."
The man lowered his head and sniffed, and sure enough, he smelled the scent of incense and paper ash on the roast chicken.
But he didn't care about those things. What was there to be dissatisfied about as long as he had meat to eat?
"The food that gods eat is really delicious." The man sighed. He might not be willing to eat it during festivals.
But the wife said, "Those personal maids live better than the gods. They spend a lot of money every day."
The man nodded: "Only Tan Baiwan would dare to live like this."
……
"How did you make money again?"
Tan Wenjie sat on the chair, ignoring Xiaohong who was sticking to him like an octopus to suck his Yang energy.
Haha, this little bit of yang energy is nothing compared to Bai Rourou. He won't feel weak in the knees even if Xiaohong holds him and sucks him, but that might not be the case when holding Bai Rourou.
At this time, Xiaohong's greater function is to serve as a personal air conditioner. The summer weather is hot and it has not rained in recent days. Fortunately, the female ghost Xiaohong helps to cool down.
With Niu Ma Xiaohong in charge of the accounts, it was very easy for Tan Wenjie to check the accounts every time. He could get all the information he wanted with just a glance.
In a world without God, reincarnation is more important than hard work.
In a world with gods, god's blessing is more important than reincarnation and more important than hard work.
His money really was spent more and more. Renovating his house, helping Zhang Susu rebuild the Zixia Temple, etc., were all extremely expensive projects, but Mr. Tan was able to afford them all.
Because there are three gods of wealth enshrined in the house, not to mention Zhong Kui, General Black Tiger likes Tan Wenjie very much and provides him with +2 wealth every day.
"Contact Shanghai more often and ask Zhang Dadan to help me run the errand."
He didn't mind going to Shanghai to make money, but flush toilets were only available in big cities and were not popular.
Running water, air conditioning and other modern things have to be installed slowly.
Then we just need to wait for Zhuge Kongping to help modify the generator, and we can enter a new era of enjoyment in January.
He flipped through the account book and forcibly pulled Xiaohong off his body.
The time is up and the energy has finally accumulated to 30/34.
Under Xiaohong's confused and puzzled gaze, Tan Wenjie left quickly, leaving only a hasty sentence: "Don't work too hard, there are not so many accounts to settle for you."
Xiao Hong: "Let me calculate the cost of building a new yard!"
We can’t let Mr. Tan down.
Now that he has reached level 5, Tan Wenjie went to the study by himself and immediately opened the [Secret Realm].
Among them, the secret realms marked as accessible at level 1 include "Folk Horror World Chapter" and "Zombies".
The secret realm that can be entered at level 5 is: "The First Commandment"!
"Ok?"
How come a new world is refreshed? Oh, yes, one must be refreshed every month.
"The Haunted Cop Shop"?
Thank you for what is the purpose of living in this world? 500 rewards
