As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.

Anle's idea was to get acquainted with the new neighbors, which might come in handy in the future.

Observe their character again to avoid being murdered.

By the way, check out the terrain and roads nearby so that if something happens, you can escape in time.

"This is what I call taking precautions before things happen and being prepared!"

Anle Congxin is very sensible and strong.

After all, it was his first time here, so it was always a good idea to make more preparations.

As soon as I walked out of the door, a muffled sound of "bang" suddenly came from the small courtyard opposite.

A plume of black smoke rose into the sky.

Then there was a burst of panic, interspersed with exclamations, the sound of bottles breaking, and finally the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, as if someone had fallen to the ground.

Anle stood at the door of the hospital, hesitating whether to go in and help.

The door to the next door was pushed open.

A fiery figure burst out.

Anle thought he wanted to put out the fire, but he didn't expect that the man didn't stop at all when passing by the door, and ran over at a trot.

However, wait until you notice the existence of happiness.

He took two more steps back and asked.

"Brother, are you new here?"

This man is of medium height, neither fat nor thin, and looks quite strong.

He has a strong aura of gangsterism and some scars on his body. He may be doing a job of licking blood from knife edges. He doesn't look like a good person.

An Le was a little wary and responded.

"Exactly, I'm in Xia Anshan."

"My name is Ma Laoliu, and I live next door to you."

The man glanced at the small courtyard where black smoke was still rising, and spoke in a relaxed tone.

"Brother An, you don't need to worry about her. It's probably that the alchemy furnace has exploded again."

"You'll get used to it in two days."

Fryer?

Or an alchemist?

Hearing this, Anle became curious and wanted to talk more.

Ma Laoliu glanced at him: "Little brother, your house..."

He hesitated to speak and quickly changed his words.

"I'm going to make a lot of money today. Let's talk another day."

After saying that, he turned around and left, his back slightly hurried.

Anle wanted to ask what the way to "make big money" was, but since they had just met, he just thought about it in his mind.

"Also, he just said about my house..."

"Is...is there any problem?"

****

Next.

Anle went shopping nearby again.

I basically memorized the main passages around me, as well as some nearby shops.

This is a residential area southwest of Akabane Manor, and is generally populated by relatively capable casual cultivators and wealthy mortals.

Just having money doesn't necessarily mean you can live there, you have to have the connections.

Further outside, there are more messy and dilapidated shantytowns.

Living conditions are even worse, and conflicts break out from time to time.

Better than cheap.

It's always safer than being in the wild.

From this point of view, Lu Ming is still very reliable.

Otherwise, Anle, a foreigner, would not be able to find such a high-quality residence.

Another family next door to Anle is a middle-aged couple, who seem quite friendly.

*****

After wandering around for a while, Anle returned to the door.

I found that the courtyard door on the opposite side was wide open, and a burning smell of medicine filled the air, as if it was being ventilated.

There are also spiritual fluctuations that have been caused by the cleansing technique.

Anle looked inside.

A man in a black robe, wrapped up tightly, was cleaning up the mess in the yard.

She could barely identify her as a woman. Her black hair was very long, thick and messy, almost covering her entire face.

There are many stains on the robe.

It looks very sloppy and has a bad image.

Seeing that she was busy, An Le was too embarrassed to disturb her and silently returned to her room.

Sitting on the bed, he opened the panel.

[Name: Anle]

【Lifespan:15/61】

[Realm: Sixth Level of Qi Training]

[Kung Fu: Spirit Tempering Kung Fu]

[Skills: Body Holding Technique (Master), Spiritual Beast Cultivation (Beginner), Ziyun Knife Technique (Proficient), Hunting (Proficient), Herbal Medicine Identification (Master), Cooking (Beginner)]

[Existing entries:

Blood Color: "The Greed of Red" and "The Man Abandoned by Heaven"

Purple: "Taoism is self-contained" and "Demon Spirit's Gift"

Blue: "Spiritual Cavity", "Melting Furnace", "Bright Realm" and "Natural Beauty"

Green: "Beast Intuition", "Scorching Heart", "Turtle Breath"...

White: "kidney energy is abundant" and "liver and spleen are harmonious"...]

During this period of time, there were some entries obtained from Anle's deduction, but they were all miscellaneous and the quality was not too high.

He suspected that this might be due to the conservation of luck.

The good luck in obtaining [Demon Spirit's Gift] must be offset by the bad luck in the next few deductions.

Of course, this is just a joke.

Luck is a very mysterious thing and no one can explain it clearly.

It is worth mentioning that.

[The Realm of Empty Ming] This entry seems a bit illusory.

Anle estimates that it does not take effect all the time.

Only when he is forced into a desperate situation and under tremendous pressure can he enter that mysterious situation again.

In addition, Anle also learned a technique - the technique of body fixation.

Wan Yinhua relied on this move to cause Anle a lot of trouble.

She happened to have a book recording this technique in her storage bag.

Anle simply learned it casually and quickly achieved "mastery" during the deduction process.

[Spirit Beast Cultivation] is a skill he accidentally unlocked while reading the "Spirit Beast Cultivation Overview".

Compared with the entry column, the skill column seems a bit empty.

"It's time to learn a new offensive technique."

Anle whispered to himself.

Although Ziyun's sword technique is not weak, it has obvious flaws and can only be used for close combat.
