If Mo Hua picked the wrong one, the master wouldn’t punish him.
But if he picked wrongly, it was another story; he might be punished to copy scriptures or draw formations hundreds of times...
Bai Zisheng looked at Mo Hua again and mused in his heart:
"Could Mo Hua be a blood-related junior of Master? Otherwise, why would Master treat him so well?"
Bai Zisheng speculated, then immediately denied it in his mind:
"Impossible. The descendants of Mr. Zhuang couldn’t possibly have such poor spiritual roots as Mo Hua!"
Mo Hua furrowed his brow, "Are you bad-mouthing me again?"
"I haven’t even said anything!"
"You were saying it in your mind."
Bai Zisheng’s mouth fell open, "Mo Hua, have you become a spirit? Can you know what other people are thinking?"
Mo Hua snorted lightly and didn’t speak.
Since his divine sense had grown stronger and he learned calculations, he had developed a vague sense of some things.
Of course, knowing what Bai Zisheng was thinking was mainly because he knew him too well.
Bai Zisheng kept his guard up around strangers, but with acquaintances, especially his junior brother with whom he spent all his time, his thoughts were written all over his face.
Bai Zisheng asked about the serious matter, "So, which cave dwelling do we choose?"
Mo Hua said, "I picked according to the standards of spiritual energy, layout, formations, and the five elements that Master mentioned. These three are all similar, so choose whichever one you like."
Bai Zisheng scratched his head.
Experience more tales on empire
He felt none were particularly good, but if he had to choose, they were all similar.
Mo Hua glanced at Bai Zixi, "Little senior sister, which one do you like?"
Bai Zisheng also looked toward his sister.
After considering for a moment, Bai Zixi lightly pointed her slender finger at a picture of a cave dwelling and said:
"This one."
Mo Hua glanced at it; there was nothing special about this dwelling except for a pond in the yard, a lawn beside the pond, and a big tree on the lawn.
Although the layout was different, it bore some resemblance to their mountain abode in South Mountain of Immortal City where they had studied with Mr. Zhuang, especially the big tree in the courtyard.
Mo Hua then nodded, "Then this one it is."
Mo Hua showed the picture of the dwelling to Mr. Zhuang.
Mr. Zhuang only glanced at it and nodded, "Good."
Mo Hua was delighted in his heart, it seemed that his earlier considerations were correct.
Now that Mr. Zhuang had agreed, the next step was to go to the housing agency worker to rent the cave dwelling.
The housing agency worker was quite surprised upon hearing this.
He hadn’t expected that Mo Hua and the other two were actually serious about renting.
"You really want to rent?" the housing agency worker confirmed again.
Mo Hua nodded, but before he could speak, Bai Zixi’s crisp voice rang out:
"No, we’re not renting."
Not only was the housing agency worker stunned, Mo Hua was too.
Bai Zixi said indifferently:
"We’re buying."
Mo Hua whispered, "Sister apprentice, purchasing would require a lot of Spirit Stones..."
Bai Zixi shook her head, "Not a lot."
She gently patted the storage bag with golden silk and phoenix patterns at her waist and softly said to Mo Hua:
"Before we left, Aunt Xue gave me all the Spirit Stones..."
After saying this, fearing that Mo Hua would worry, she added:
"A lot, a lot..."
Mo Hua was somewhat shocked.
His little sister apprentice was actually a little rich girl...
Immediately after, he felt a bit puzzled, "Can this small Storage Bag hold that much?"
Bai Zixi nodded, "It can hold it."
Mo Hua understood.
This Storage Bag must be an extraordinary Spiritual Artifact.
