Chapter 19: Prodigal Woman

“This entry is great!”

Anle couldn't help but show joy on his face.

This is his first purple entry!

Although Anle has never come into contact with serious classics.

——His [Spirit Tempering Technique] was taught orally by Lin Shanbai.

However, this did not prevent him from seeing the huge potential of [Taoism is self-sufficient].

“The future is promising!”

He decisively chose to inherit.

But soon, Anle's expression froze.

Because he saw that in the entry column, an extra word had appeared at some point——

[Red's Greed: She accompanies you, she listens to your voice, she senses your warmth. ]

She is always watching you.

[But please be careful...]

【Don't let her find out that you can see her! 】

The entry, along with the notes that follow, are all bloody red, revealing a strong ominous meaning.

Anle's heart was beating wildly when he saw it.

A chill rushed from the spine to the top of the head.

"Didn't I choose this term?"

"Why did you inherit it anyway?"

Anle felt very aggrieved and couldn't accept it.

He just deliberately didn't watch "Red Dressed Greed", but he still fell for it.

If you think about it carefully, it makes sense.

The peculiarity of this entry is that it most likely existed before the Anle deduction.

It’s just that he didn’t notice it before.

simply put.

Since Anle traveled through time, it may even be an earlier time.

The strange woman in red was already accompanying him, watching him silently.

And now.

It was only because Anle's brain underwent unknown changes under the stimulation of spiritual power that her existence could be observed.

[Red-clothed man’s greed] is thus revealed.

Thinking of this, Anle's scalp tingled and his face looked grim.

The already damp and cold room felt even more eerie.

Especially when he thought that there was a pair of eyes staring at him all the time.

There was a chilling feeling as if all my privacy was exposed and seen through.

"What bad luck!"

Anle cursed inwardly.

It's like having a bowl of pickled cabbage noodles in front of you.

If you don’t know how to make sauerkraut, most people probably won’t feel anything. They eat it so deliciously that they even drink a few sips of the soup.

But once you know it, your mood will be completely different.

Come to think of it, the original owner was really miserable.

Not only was he hated by Chen Zhuangshi and poisoned by the witch doctor, but he was also haunted by this female ghost.

No wonder he died so early!

But now, everything falls on Anle.

"Looking at the bright side, it can be regarded as finding a hidden danger in advance."

Anle gave full play to his optimistic attitude and comforted himself.

"Wait, my life span..."

He suddenly figured out something.

His pitiful life span might very well be related to this evil spirit.

"hateful!"

Anle was extremely sad and angry, and wished he could chop the evil spirit in red to pieces with a hatchet.

Suddenly, a corner of the blood-red skirt floated into his peripheral vision.

The eerie chill seemed to penetrate into the skin.

Anle immediately looked at the nose with his eyes, and looked at the heart with his nose.

Sit upright like an old monk in meditation.

Once again, I silently chanted: "Demons and ghosts, please leave now... Devil and ghosts, please leave now..."

He is not doing this from the heart, but just... tactically forbearing!

******

The peaceful days passed day by day.

Five days passed in a flash.

At noon.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Anle let out a long breath to calm the spiritual power in his body.

When I opened my eyes, it seemed as if a bright light flashed, illuminating the dim house.

Open the game panel.

【Name: Anle】

【Lifespan: 15/40】

[Realm: Qi Training Level 3]

[Kung Fu: Spiritual Tempering Technique]

Anle looked at the “Third Level of Qi Training” on the panel and smiled with satisfaction.

"Finally, all the refining has been completed. It was not easy..."

The deduction five days ago not only brought about [Red-clothed Man's Greed], but also greatly enhanced his mental strength.

When it comes to refining your spiritual power, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Controlling the feeling of them moving through the meridians is like adding lubricant.

Silky and comfortable.

Finally today, I quickly refined all the original spiritual energy and reached the third level of Qi training.

Anle was very satisfied with this.

But also at this time.

Behind him, the sinister and cold aura of the evil spirit in red was approaching.

The face of the woman in the red dress slowly approached Anle's neck.

The icy cold seeps into the skin and flesh...

Go deep into the bone marrow!

Then, strands of spiritual power emanated from his body.

The woman opened her cherry lips slightly and absorbed all the spiritual power into her mouth.

This process lasted about ten seconds.

When the eerie coldness faded away, Anle did not dare to show any abnormality. He stood up and pushed the door open as usual.

"This loser woman is sucking my spiritual energy again!"

Anle was indignant and felt a little sorry for the spiritual power he had saved up with great difficulty.

These five days together.

Anle has almost figured out the behavior patterns of the woman in the red dress.

She seemed to have no independent consciousness and acted entirely on her remaining instincts.

Most of the time, the woman in red is not aggressive.

Like a harmless decoration, it follows Anle.

Wherever he goes, follow him.

The distance is sometimes far and sometimes near, but it will never exceed ten meters.

But if Anle showed signs of seeing her.

The woman in red will rush towards Anle frantically.

And then……

He went crazy!

In three of the five deductions Anle performed, he failed to control his facial expressions and ended up going crazy.

Other than that, the woman in red is pretty easy to get along with.

And if you look closely, she looks pretty good!

Another point.

The woman in red would absorb some of the spiritual power after practicing in peace, as if she was using it as food.

The quantity is not too large.

That is one tenth of the additional spiritual power each time.

Anle could barely accept it.

"It is said that female ghosts absorb rice spirits, why do you choose to absorb spiritual energy?"

After realizing that her threat was not as great as expected, Anle's attitude became arrogant.

They dared to point fingers at the woman in red and even called her a "spendthrift woman."

Of course, in my heart.

Walking out of the room, Anle went straight to the kitchen.

His stomach was extremely hungry and craved for some food!

Every time after practicing the Spirit Tempering Technique, Anle would feel very hungry.

While this technique refines spiritual power, the spiritual power will also feed back into the practitioner's physical body, subtly transforming muscles and bones.

To strengthen the body, sufficient nutrition is naturally indispensable.

Isn’t it reasonable for Anle to eat two more bowls of rice?

During these five days, it was mostly rainy and we couldn't go out hunting.

Coupled with Anle's increasingly exaggerated appetite, the Linshan Bai family was almost going bankrupt!

Fortunately.

A few days ago, the village chief knew he was in the wrong and sent a batch of food as an apology.
