Uncle Liu was a bit confused.
That long knife, he could reluctantly understand, maybe it was made of some special material inside, worth some money, but that blood-stained white cloth didn't seem like anything good, why would he want it?
He had originally planned to dispose of that thing, just take it and burn it.
"Keep it if you want."
Chen An didn't say much, directly stuffed twenty silver coins over as the money for purchasing these two items.
Of course, Uncle Liu initially didn't want the silver coins.
On the one hand, to please Chen An, on the other hand, it really wasn't worth much.
As he had said, these things were just scraps bought alongside antiques, to be disposed of in normal circumstances, totally worthless.
But since Chen An insisted on giving it, he happily accepted.
In his eyes, two seemingly worthless items exchanged for twenty silver coins, that was quite a profit.
A moment later, Chen An walked away with the wrapped package.
Actually, he didn't need to pay, but on one hand, he didn't have the habit of taking things for free, and on the other hand, it was also to boost Uncle Liu's motivation.
Taking advantage of others once or twice was fine, but over time, even if others didn't dare to say anything overtly, it would greatly damage motivation.
Might as well, he didn't lack this bit of money, better just give it directly.
Back at home, Chen An eagerly opened the package, revealing the two items inside.
First was the blood-stained white cloth, the bloodstains on it were bright and vivid, as if they had just been stained on, quite special.
As for the long knife, it looked ordinary, just rusted all over, as if it had been left for a long time and rusted like that.
Chen An placed his hand on the white cloth, and immediately there was a change.
The bloodstains on the cloth slowly began to fade, gradually becoming faint, until they completely disappeared.
A look of disappointment appeared on Chen An's face.
He looked at the energy bar in the projection column, there was indeed a change, but this change could only be considered barely acceptable, just a slight improvement.
He had lost ten silver coins!
Chen An set down the white cloth and looked at the other item.
Compared to the white cloth, this rusty long knife looked just like an ordinary object, nothing special about it.
Hopefully, there would be a pleasant surprise this time.
With this thought in mind, Chen An placed his hand on it, and then a smile appeared on his face.
A warm flow surged from his palm, slowly spreading throughout his body, being absorbed by some unknown presence.
There was a sensation!
Chen An watched as the energy bar began to change, the energy slowly increasing until it was full.
The charging on the projection column immediately changed to available.
Perfect.
With a smile on his face, Chen An had this thought.
At this point, Chen An could still feel a wave of heat rising from the long knife in front of him, it seemed that it hadn't been fully absorbed, but there was no movement on his body.
At once, he understood.
It seemed that this energy bar had a limit to the amount of energy it could store, once it was full, it couldn't continue to charge.
Better to use up the current energy first.
Without much hesitation, Chen An began to try.
"Do you want to simulate?".
The prompt in front of him continued to display, but Chen An ignored it.
Nonsense, if it wasn't for the simulation why would I tap on you.
"Simulation has ended."
"Evaluation: Your life is ordinary."
"You have gained 15 source points"
A bunch of subtitles flashed before his eyes, but Chen An directly ignored them.
He skipped the previous introduction part, and directly looked at the final result.
By now, he was quite familiar with the function of this simulation.
The specific scenario of the simulation didn't really matter, as he couldn't control it, it was completely random.
So by now, Chen An had treated it as a lottery, just to see how lucky he could get this time and how many source points he could draw.
This situation might change after he could directly control it in the future, but at the current stage, there was nothing to do.
"Fifteen points, not bad."
Chen An nodded, quite satisfied with this result.
His requirements weren't high, as long as it didn't fall below the lower limit.
If your expectations aren't high, you won't easily be disappointed.
Name: Chen An
Attributes: Strength (4.1), Body (4), Spirit (2.4)
Source Energy: 18
Inheritance: Bright Body Decision (Second Layer), Five Tiger Knife Method (Mastered), Tiger Leopard Horizontal Training (Partially Mastered), Haisha Fist (Mastered), Yang Family Spear (Introductory)
Projection: Charging in progress
The familiar template interface reappeared.
However, compared to before, there were some differences, as there were now specific levels behind each martial art.
This change came with a thought change before Chen An, at least on the surface, it looked more detailed.
Sitting at the bedside, Chen An stared at the Bright Body Decision column, pondering whether to continue to enhance it.
The benefits of enhancing the Bright Body Decision were obvious, as it could increase the number of meridians.
The more meridians, the better the speed Chen An could refine and transform internal energy, and the speed of becoming stronger would also increase.
But Chen An had his own concerns.
Although theoretically speaking, the enhancement of internal energy was relatively concealed, as long as he didn't actively show it, it was usually difficult for others to notice.
But that was just a theory.
In case the enhancement was too obvious, and the changes were too clear, he might be discovered by Bai Qing, and then he wouldn't be able to explain.
How could he explain it, that he had extraordinary talent, and in less than half a month had achieved mastery of internal energy, comparable to Song Wang?
Only a fool would believe such a story.
So, to avoid this embarrassing situation, Chen An thought it'd be better to go a bit slower.
As the saying goes, "caution drives the boat for ten thousand years," sometimes going a little slower might be for the best.
After all, on the surface, he had Bai Qing's protection, and currently, there was no danger. When it was necessary, he could still enhance it.
Plan settled.
Thinking of this, Chen An got up and took out a medicine gourd from the side.
With Chen An's movements, there was a sound coming from the medicine gourd.
Bai Qing had given Chen An ten small Yuan Dan pills, but so far he had only used three, and there were still seven left.
According to Bai Qing's estimate, once Chen An used up these ten small Yuan Dan pills, he would probably be able to make a breakthrough and try to open up his meridians.
But Chen An had already reached this point, so he no longer needed them.
Of course, this didn't mean that these Yuan Dan pills were useless to him, just that they didn't have the same effect as before.
The most in need of these small Yuan Dan pills should be those who had just started trying to refine internal energy but had not officially opened up their meridians yet.
Chen An had passed this stage.
After thinking for a moment, Chen An collected these pills.
In any case, they were useful resources, and judging from Bai Qing's previous expressions, they should be quite valuable.
Even if he didn't need them now, when necessary, it would still be a substantial wealth if he sold them.
