Chapter 22: The Tooth Row

  In the Purple Mansion, Pan Hao's divine soul sat upright on a red lotus, solemn and majestic, with both hands pinching a strange seal. Behind his divine soul, a miniature version of the Heavenly River rose up, with the faint sound of flowing water emerging from it. The water flow was calm and peaceful, containing the breath of nourishment and life. This was Pan Hao borrowing the power of the divine way. A person's virtue is like clear water! In the guest room, a noble red lotus slowly bloomed, lifting Pan Hao and Xiwen up.

  A long river appeared vaguely around the Honglian, floating and sinking, but it could make people feel a strong power.

  The spiritual energy within a radius of ten miles was frantically gathered, and the entire room became hazy. The spiritual energy flowed like water waves, rolling and surging. Pan Hao, who was sleeping on the bed, absorbed it! Xianyun, who was beside him, didn't understand the cultivation method, but she also absorbed a lot of spiritual energy through her breathing.

  Pan Hao's originally empty dantian suddenly appeared a mist, the mist grew at an extremely fast speed, filling the dantian, slowly condensing into spiritual energy, transforming into water droplets falling down, more and more water droplets, vaguely visible was a white sacred lotus flower slowly taking shape in his dantian!

  The lotus flower seems to be rooted in the dantian, becoming clearer and more substantial! Ah! The sacred white lotus bud opens, emitting radiant light that fills with holy elegance, as if it can eliminate all impurities from the body, cleansing the mind and body, making one pure and spotless, achieving a flawless physique.

  The white lotus flower blooms with eighteen petals, swaying gently with the flow of spiritual energy, vitality overflowing, full of life and vigor!

  A ray of sunlight passed through the gap at the window and shone in. Pan Hao slowly opened his eyes, unaware that a night had already passed! The white lotus flower in his dantian had reached second grade, and he had recovered his previous cultivation. After all, this body's own cultivation had already reached second grade, as long as he re-refined the spiritual energy into true energy, with the help of the divine position. Now, with a single leap, he had restored the realm of true energy.

  "Hmm." Xianwen let out a soft humming noise through her nose. She yawned and opened her blurry eyes.

  "Did you sleep well last night?" Pan Hao asked with a smile on his face.

  "It's comfortable." The little girl's cheeks flushed red, seeing Pan Hao with a smile on his face suddenly seemed like a little wife, lowering her head and softly replied.

  "Who's the big shot, little kid!" Pan Hao chuckled and rubbed Xiwen's little head. Last night, Pan Hao cultivated, and the spiritual energy around him enveloped both of them, benefiting even Xiwen who didn't cultivate.

  "Who said I'm small?" The little girl's face fell at once, she pouted her mouth and stuck out her chest, wearing a white undergarment.

  Pan Hao looked up and was instantly delighted. The little girl's body had not started developing at all, and her chest was flat as a board.

  "Bad guy, bad guy!" The little girl saw Pan Hao's face with a smile that was not hidden at all, and suddenly gritted her teeth, the cute little tiger teeth grinding and making a "kaka" sound.

  She rushed up and sat on Pan Hao's body, rolling around and hitting him.

  Half a minute later, the two finally ended the war, and in the end, it was Xiao Ya who pouted her small mouth and shouted that she was hungry, ending the battle.

  Pan Hao saw that the little girl didn't have much gloom in her heart, and suddenly felt a sense of relief. After all, the death of a close relative is an unprecedented blow to a young girl.

  But being able to hold on for so many days, she's a strong little girl after all.

  "Get up! I'll take you to eat something delicious!" Pan Hao's eyes were filled with a smile as he picked up the little girl from his chest and gently scratched her small nose.

  Pan Hao got out of bed and prepared to put on his usual clothes.

  Here, similar to ancient Huaxia, people generally wear undergarments when sleeping. Undergarments are also called zhongdan, which is a basic garment that must be worn.

  "I'm here to help you!" After last night and just now, Xiwen and Pan Hao's unfamiliarity had already disappeared. Suddenly, she ran over eagerly, picked up the clothes and helped Pan Hao put them on. Then, she looked him up and down, her eyes narrowing into crescent moons, a satisfied expression on her face as she nodded in approval.

  After a while, the washing was done, and the door opened. A white Confucian robe was worn on Pan Hao's body, covering his sharp aura. It made Pan Hao look even more gentle and refined, like a worldly gentleman. In his occasional glances, he revealed a faint scholarly air.

  Next to her, Xiwen wore a pink dress wrapped in fiery red fox fur. After being nourished by spiritual energy and true energy, her face had greatly improved. Delicate features, skin as white as snow. Looking mischievous and lovely, making people involuntarily feel affectionate.

  "Waiter, bring us a few signature dishes!" Pan Hao took Xiwen downstairs and found a seat near the window.

  Pan Haoran looked around and saw that there were already many people eating in the inn, and the cries of vendors on the street outside came one after another. A lively scene.

  "Coming!" The shopkeeper yelled, and a moment later, steaming hot dishes were served.

  "Waiter, is there a dental clinic nearby?" Pan Hao asked, stopping the waiter.

  "There's a reputable dental clinic on West Street!" The shop assistant pointed west and said succinctly in response to Pan Hao's inquiry.

  "Ah, thank you little brother!" Pan Hao smiled slightly and handed over a few pieces of broken silver as a reward to the young servant.

  "Thank you, young master!" The shop assistant was overjoyed. To think that working here for a whole year would only earn him a little more than ten taels of silver. This was equivalent to a full month's wages!

  "Little girl, after dinner, let's go see the yard!" Pan Hao said to Xiwen who was eating with relish.

  "Mmm!" The little girl nodded her head with sparkling eyes, and her cute appearance made Pan Hao pinch her small nose.

  "Bad egg!" The little girl pouted her small mouth and wrinkled up her nose. A crisp, pleasant sound of discontent arose.

  Pan Hao couldn't help but smile, as if there was a little loli by his side, which wasn't bad at all.

  ……

  "It's here!" After dinner, Pan Hao took Xiwen to the front of the tooth line. The tooth line is also called a tooth person, which is an intermediary agent in various businesses in ancient times. Wanting to buy a courtyard and finding it here was naturally the most suitable.

  "This young master, I don't know if you want to sell land or buy land?" A stout middle-aged man with a smile on his face came up.

  "Well, I'd like to find a courtyard in the suburbs, and finally have a quiet and elegant one!" Pan Hao went straight to the point! He clearly stated his requirements for the courtyard.

  "This young master, there is a courtyard that meets your requirements, but..." The shopkeeper suddenly hesitated.

  "It's haunted there, and several disbelieving families have been scared out of their wits by a few people!" The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment before revealing the reason.

  "Oh?" Pan Hao's eyes flickered with a hint of confusion, and suddenly there was a ghost appearing here.

  "So, young master, if you don't mind changing your requirements, there is a pretty good courtyard in the east of the city, which is decorated with luxury and elegance, and it's quite classical!" The shopkeeper advised.

  "I wonder if the shopkeeper can take us to see that one in the suburbs first?"

  "What?"

  "I am Pan, a man who reads the books of saints and sages. How could I be afraid of those ghosts and monsters?" Pan Hao said calmly.
