"... But seeing you like this now, I believe it!"
The beautiful landlady looked expectant:
"I'm also getting a bit impatient."
"..."
Ding Ling had no words to respond.
Was the landlady going to the game just because she could develop again?
However, seeing her flat chest, Ding Ling understood.
The landlady was beautiful, but when it came to figure, she could really be bros with Ding Ling.
"What are you looking at?"
The beautiful landlady turned slightly, her face flushed with anger, glaring:
"Just wait, in a few days, I'll show you a brand new Ouyang Lingling!"
Perhaps it was because both of their names had 'Ling' in them.
Although Ouyang Lingling rejected Ding Ling, they had a pretty good relationship, almost like friends.
"When will I see you again after you leave?"
"Mountains and rivers are long, if fate wills it, we'll meet again someday."
The two chatted and laughed for a while.
Ouyang Lingling extended an invitation to Ding Ling: "I have properties all over the country, wherever you go, I can rent a house to you. I can continue to be your landlady, what do you think?"
Ding Ling didn't think much of it.
Though Ouyang Lingling could be trusted.
But at this time, Ding Ling wouldn't casually place his personal safety in the hands of an outsider.
Before he had enough strength to protect himself,
Ding Ling wouldn't let anyone discover or find him.
He left his residence, and on the same day, with his luggage, went to the black market for cars, rented a black car, and headed to the outskirts of the neighboring city.
Traveling on the road.
Upon reaching his destination,
The black car driver, seeing no one around, and noticing that Ding Ling looked decent, tried to extort some money from him, but got roughed up by Ding Ling instead, left without asking for money, and fled.
Ding Ling saved a bit of money, touched his face, even wearing a mask, he still seemed easy to bully?
What was the black car driver thinking!
"This place is rural. It's unlikely anyone will find me here, right?"
He had previously contacted the landlord from a public phone in a secretive place.
The landlord said he would arrive at four in the afternoon.
Ding Ling checked his watch.
It was three thirty.
He waited at the agreed location, at the entrance of the village.
After half an hour.
A man arrived punctually.
He glanced at Ding Ling, seeing him covered tightly with a hat and mask, found it a bit odd, but since he hadn't lived here for years, renting out the house to make some money was just fine, he didn't think much, didn't even sign a contract with Ding Ling, and Ding Ling to appreciate this point, rented the house here.
The man showed Ding Ling the house, took the money, and left.
Ding Ling glanced around the house.
It was very dirty.
This is how places were when unoccupied for long periods.
But it had appliances, furniture, and such, saving him the trouble of buying them.
When renting a house, he usually rents one with appliances, otherwise, buying them is troublesome.
The village is located at the foot of the mountain, and it's not big.
Only a few dozen households.
And most of them are vacant, young people have all gone to the city, leaving only the elderly and some left-behind children.
The children are also very young.
Around five or six years old, the age of playing with mud.
Seeing a new person in the village, they were particularly curious, occasionally observing Ding Ling secretly, pointing and giggling with clear, melodious laughter.
Ding Ling didn't mind; he too had been this age, knowing children are the most innocent.
After cleaning the house,
he went out to chat proactively with the village elders, learned about the local circumstances, and under the enthusiastic guidance of an elder, visited the hot spring in the mountains and even cleaned the well and other areas.
He would have to rely on the well water for cooking and boiling water in the future.
Busy inside and out.
It took several hours.
Only when the children's playful noises quieted down did Ding Ling enter his room, securely closed the door, took out his gaming helmet, and prepared to enter the game.
What reassured him was the gaming helmet could be used anywhere.
Internet access wasn't even necessary.
Thinking of the internet,
Ding Ling turned over and got up again.
He began to use his phone, connecting to Uncle Zhang's WIFI next door, and started to surf the net.
He had removed his SIM card and bought a second-hand phone a while ago to avoid being found. His preparations were comprehensive.
This time, his online goal was to learn some new knowledge.
He searched for archery courses and others.
A while later.
[Basic Archery Full Level]
[Projection Technique Full Level]
[Rapid Shooting Technique Full Level]
[Continuous Shooting Technique Full Level]
...
Different archery skills surged in his mind.
Ding Ling, who originally didn't understand archery, instantly became a Master of Archery at that moment!
He had a very clear sense.
With his current power, if paired with a good bow, he could easily kill a Second-class General!
"Very good."
Ding Ling was very satisfied.
If archery skills in the real world were already this impressive, he couldn't imagine the situation if he trained to full level the archery skills of Huang Zhong and others in the Three Kingdoms World?
"Continue."
Ding Ling searched online again for other knowledge points.
It was due to his actions in the Three Kingdoms World that made him realize that skills in the real world could also be useful at critical moments.
This time, he actively tried to learn all he could!
Some time later.
[Forging Defense Weapons Skill Full Level]
[Forging Attack Weapons Skill Full Level]
[Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse Making Skill Full Level]
...
Ding Ling had studied too many knowledge points in the sea of knowledge on the internet.
And since these were basic skills,
after a single read through,
the library would instantly condense into a book, allowing Ding Ling's skills in that aspect to reach full level immediately.
This naturally made Ding Ling become a:
[Master of Forging!]
[Master Carpenter!]
[Master Smith!]
[Master Bamboo Weaver!]
[Master of Agriculture!]
[Planting Master!]
[Master of Cultivating Crops!]
...
He gained dozens of useful skills.
The books condensed from the knowledge points were stacked up on one of the bookshelves, numbering in the hundreds.
"Very good."
Ding Ling nodded to himself, very satisfied.
Perhaps because modern times focus more on the manufacturing of nuclear bombs and advanced weapons.
Thus, forging skills in that aspect can't be found on the internet or in bookstores.
However, ancient skills and some modern basic skills can be found in network bookstores without hesitation.
Of course.
Some truly top-notch skills that can be passed down generations can't be found online.
For example, Ding Ling had always wanted to learn Xingyi Fist, Yong Chun Fist, and other genuine fist techniques.
But they were not available online.
"Okay, now I can enter the Game World."
Ding Ling put on the gaming helmet.
Chose to enter the Game World.
With the familiar sensation of the world spinning around.
The next moment.
He found himself back at the Player Plaza again.
At a glance.
A sea of people.
Various discussions flooded into his ears like a surging torrent.
Ding Ling shook his head, choosing not to listen or focus.
Instead, he opened his Character Panel.
Sure enough.
This time, the Character Panel was different again.
