Fox Demon: Heaven rewards diligence; I will eventually achieve divine mastery of martial arts.

It's just a common, low-quality martial art, nothing of value, nothing to worry about.

The two chatted as they walked, and soon returned to the village.

As soon as I entered the village, I saw a group of people making a ruckus as they headed up the mountain.

"Fifth Aunt, where are you all going?"

Lin Yu found it strange and called out to one of them, asking curiously.

"Hey, what could be wrong? Old Wang said there are a lot of animals in the mountains lately, they've all come out, so everyone's rushing up the mountain to set traps."

A middle-aged woman spoke with a smile.

"Who wouldn't want to eat some meat in the dead of winter? Oh well, I have to get back to work."

After saying that, the other party quickly followed the main group and headed up the mountain.

Watching the departing figures, Lin Yu asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Where did all these animals come from in this kind of weather?"

In my previous life, as a corporate slave living in a steel jungle, I didn't really know much about things in the mountains and forests.

Logically speaking, even if there were animals involved, it shouldn't be this large, right?

The news they heard from Uncle Li and Aunt Wu sounded like a huge amount of prey was waiting for them to pick up.

'Could it be some kind of disaster?'

As Lin Yu pondered, he suddenly remembered the popular science he had learned in his previous life.

Animals generally have much more acute intuition than humans; they can sense disasters like earthquakes and floods before they strike.

"Hurry up, let's try to move out tomorrow."

Regardless of whether the matter was true or false, Lin Yu had made up his mind to leave this small village as soon as possible.

If there were an earthquake or something, the old houses in the village wouldn't be able to withstand it.

Back home, Lin Yu handed the manual of the Mighty Bull Technique directly to Feng Qi and said, "Try to pack everything up tonight, and we'll move out tomorrow."

Are you in a hurry?

Feng Qi took the manual, glanced at Lin Yu, and said.

"Hmm, it's strange that so many animals are out and about in the dead of winter."

"We'll have to move eventually, so there's no harm in moving sooner."

Feng Qi nodded upon hearing this, without saying anything more.

Back in his room, Lin Yu didn't have much stuff, just two sets of clothes to change into, one of which he had burned earlier.

The remaining items were the dagger and longsword obtained from the Black Tiger Gang.

After tidying up briefly, I found a bundle and put everything away. Looking at the dilapidated roof, I felt a mix of emotions.

From the initial panic of arriving, to the despair of having nowhere to turn, to the hope for the future now.

I've only been in this world for a short time, but it feels like it's been much longer than my previous life.

This feeling is really hard to describe.

Especially now, this place is my first "home" in this world, and I'm a little reluctant to leave tomorrow.

If it weren't for safety concerns, perhaps living a peaceful and stable life here wouldn't be such a bad thing.

I'll find a way to make some money then, settle down as a wealthy man, and enjoy the comfortable life of the countryside.

This would have been the dream of countless people in their past lives.

As he pondered, he found himself completely unable to fall asleep, despite his original plan to rest early.

Lin Yu simply got up from under the covers and went to the yard to start practicing standing meditation.

The cold wind howled.

Under the cold wind, Lin Yu felt his chaotic thoughts calm down considerably.

[You have diligently practiced the Mighty Bull Kung Fu and gained some insights; proficiency +3!]

[You have diligently practiced the Mighty Bull Kung Fu and gained some insights; proficiency +3!]

In the main house.

Feng Qi sat on the bed, holding the Mighty Bull Technique and flipping through it.

Suddenly, she stopped what she was doing and looked into the courtyard through the wooden door, as if she could see the scene outside clearly.

"fraud."

A cold, clear voice echoed in the room.

The voice was soft, and there was no discernible emotional fluctuation.

Through her research, Fengqi figured out something.

This so-called Mighty Bull Kung Fu has absolutely no magical effects.

It's just some standing meditation or similar exercises that can only be considered physical exercise.

Following this method of cultivation, at best one will only gain more strength and a more robust physique, but it's impossible to reach Lin Yu's level.

Especially in such a short period of training.

As for martial arts prodigies, that's utter nonsense.

It's like someone telling you that they can gain 100 pounds in half a month by binge eating.

However, for some reason, Feng Qi did not feel angry at Lin Yu's behavior.

Instead, they became even more curious, both about Lin Yu as a person and the secrets he held.

. . . . . .

The next morning.

Lin Yu had already packed everything up early on.

Before long, Feng Qi appeared in the courtyard.

Compared to Lin Yu, she had far fewer possessions, only a small box in her arms.

"Is this all you brought?"

Lin Yu looked at Feng Qi speechlessly and said.

"Ah."

Feng Qi nodded naturally.

As expected of a wealthy heiress, she exudes such generosity.

Lin Yu gave a thumbs up, too lazy to offer any further advice.

If you don't want to bring it, then don't. It's not that valuable anyway.

"Let's go."

Lin Yu called out, and he and Feng Qi walked out of the courtyard one after the other.

The village was still covered in snow. Lin Yu looked at everything familiar and was filled with emotion.

When we reached the village entrance, we ran into Uncle Li again.

"Wow, what are you doing with all those bags and packages? Moving?"

Uncle Li spoke curiously.

"I'm going to stay with relatives. It's been a bit cold lately, so I'm going to visit them in town."

Lin Yu spoke with a smile, without going into too much detail.

"Oh, that."

"By the way, Uncle Li, the animals in the mountains have been behaving strangely lately, so please be extra careful."

"Hey, what could possibly be wrong? I've lived here for over ten years."

Lin Yu nodded and said with a smile, "That would be great. If you need any help in the future, you can come to town to find me."

Since it was all just his own speculation, he couldn't say too much. Giving him a heads-up was just a precaution.

So that if something really happens, you can react faster than others.

After all, the Mighty Bull Kung Fu was taught to him by the other party, so one should be grateful.

After saying goodbye, the two headed towards the town along the mountain road.

Around noon, the two finally arrived in the town.

Do not know why.

This wasn't his first time visiting the town.

This time, however, as soon as he entered the city gate, Lin Yu felt a strange sense of warmth and security.

Lin Yu could only attribute this to the fact that he had now settled down here.
