"Uncle, do you want to find your own place to live, or purchase a house provided by the Feihong Gang? I can offer you an inside opportunity."
Lin Zheyu looked at Han Mo’s father and said with a smile.
He didn’t plan to stay long in Bafang City, and rather than buying a house, he chose to rent a small courtyard to live in.
"We’ll find our own place to reside."
"For now, we’ll look for a temporary place to stay, and plan further once Tianshu joins the city guards," Uncle said.
"Alright, I’ll go with you; I also plan to temporarily rent a place to stay."
Lin Zheyu picked up his package, and the group went to the place for renting and selling houses.
With the chaos caused by invading forces, a large population flooded into Bafang City, making the housing market for renting and selling explode.
Prices changed daily, and in just over a year, they tripled.
Lin Zheyu and Han Mo’s brother’s family each rented a small courtyard, costing 980 coins per month.
The price was shockingly high, more than what an ordinary person’s monthly inco could cover.
But for Lin Zheyu, it was nothing.
"From now on, the Han family will rely on you two brothers as the backbone. If you encounter any unsolvable issues, you can co to ."
"Don’t worry about troubling Mr. Lin; just think you can solve things on your own."
"I might not stay in Bafang City for long, so while I’m still here, familiarize yourself with the place and settle down as quickly as possible."
Lin Zheyu advised Han Tianshu and Han Tianmin.
Both were 16 and 15 years old, already at the age of adulthood.
With good family teachings from their brother Han Mo, the two brothers were very sensible and reliable in handling matters.
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Lin, for your care and guidance along the way." Han Tianshu and Han Tianmin sincerely thanked him.
"Alright, you two go ahead."
"Tianmin, rember to study the Poison Canon whenever you have ti. Write down any parts you don’t understand, and I’ll explain them to you every two days."
Lin Zheyu said to Han Tianmin.
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Lin." Han Tianmin nodded in agreent.
"Alright, you can go back now; I need to tidy up the house a bit." Lin Zheyu said.
After they left, Lin Zheyu entered the rented small courtyard.
This small courtyard was newly built, with everything being brand new.
The courtyard was planted with so flowers and plants, blooming white flowers that emitted a faint fragrance.
After placing his laundry inside the house, Lin Zheyu took so silver taels and went out.
The dicinal materials for the Blood-Nourishing and Bone-Strengthening Soup he bought before had all been used up and needed to be replenished.
Before leaving, he practiced the Turtle Breath Skill, controlling the muscles on his face for a subtle adjustnt.
In just a mont, the once-handso young man’s face bore a few subtle wrinkles, transforming into a middle-aged appearance in his forties.
His facial shape also changed slightly, becoming more square.
A faint domineering aura emanated, changing Lin Zheyu’s entire temperant so much that even familiar people would not recognize him.
He seed like a completely different person.
This ability was learned once Lin Zheyu cultivated the Turtle Breath Skill to the Third-Layer Perfection.
Though not as magical as novels describe, where one could freely change their appearance, Lin Zheyu could only make subtle adjustnts to his face.
But that was already enough.
With these subtle adjustnts and a change in gaze and temperant, even the most familiar people would only think the two looked very similar and wouldn’t suspect they were the sa person.
Lin Zheyu looked into a bronze mirror, seeing the image of a man in his forties reflected back.
The man gave a domineering and reckless impression with his facial expression, completely different from the aura Lin Zheyu usually exuded.
"With this appearance, even in front of Jia Yanrong and the others, they won’t recognize , right?" Lin Zheyu remarked to himself while observing his reflection in the bronze mirror.
After confirming everything was fine, Lin Zheyu leapt lightly on his tiptoes, flipping over the backyard wall.
Walking out of the alley, there was a wide street.
Bafang City was quite different from Songyi City, much larger than Songyi City.
The layout of Bafang City was also different; the main roads often had passing caravans, so the roads were built very wide.
There were many markets and shops of all kinds, and the economy was exceedingly prosperous.
Walking on the street, it was bustling, with no hint of impending warfare or foreign invasion.
These things seed distant from the common people here.
They still enthusiastically hawked their goods, children played gas and acted out various roles.
Won and girls lingered in various perfu, fabric, and jewelry stores.
"There are more martial arts schools here than I imagined!" Lin Zheyu noted in surprise.
Along the way, he noticed many martial arts schools, which were extrely rare in Songyi City.
In Songyi City, most people practiced martial arts handed down through family cultivation techniques or by specially seeking a master to teach them.
So joined factions to earn cultivation techniques.
Lin Zheyu had stayed in Songyi City for so long and hadn’t seen any famous martial arts schools.
Most of them just taught rudintary martial arts, and business wasn’t very good.
This was related to Songyi City’s economy.
In Songyi City, most common people were poor, poor yet stable, with no possibility of sudden wealth, so they simply couldn’t afford to practice martial arts.
Those with money for cultivation had their own inherited cultivation techniques.
anwhile, Bafang City had many passing rchants, and so ordinary people got lucky and suddenly beca wealthy, developing an interest in martial arts, leading to the growth of many martial arts schools.
"The martial arts atmosphere in Bafang City is strong; I wonder if I can find a cultivation technique that allows one to reach the Qi Blood Dragon Realm," Lin Zheyu mused to himself.
If a Qi Blood Dragon Realm technique wasn’t available, sothing that reached Qi Blood Six Transformations would suffice.
If he could find it, he wouldn’t mind staying in Bafang City a bit longer, improving his strength before heading to the Central Plains Region.
Lin Zheyu didn’t imdiately go looking for cultivation techniques; he wandered around, planning to first buy the dicinal materials and enhance his strength first.
