After losing Wind Following Sword, it was possible for Shaotian to deal with the bandits by himself. However, if he had to bring three more people with him, then it would be a bit tiring. Helpless, they all had to go their separate ways. Shaotian would return to Mount Hua to continue his studies and see if he could learn any superior martial arts. After learning so much, they would head back to the justice courts with hopes of learning the Six Passages Divine Sword. As for Remnant Dream, she would wander between betraying the Tang Sect and continuing to stay in the Tang Sect.

As for Sikong Lan, he turned around and returned to Luoyang City without a second thought.

There were a lot of people on Commerce Street, but Si Kong Lan didn't have a clear goal for the moment. She started to look at the surrounding items, other than the equipment provided by the players, there were also many famous paintings, books, and other items from different dynasties, as well as many vases and vases.

The game announcement said that in order to meet the different needs of different people, some people did not come to "Jianghu" just for the sake of leveling up, but rather came here to experience the ancient life, to try out all kinds of foods, to read all kinds of famous paintings, antiques and other precious items. Furthermore, all the famous paintings and antiques in the game were all imitated from the real world.

Apparently, Si Kong Lan only came to shop because she was interested. If she wanted him to go train by himself, he wouldn't be able to do anything else besides killing the dogs and cats. It would be better to wait until he learnt some martial arts. Thoughtful Mist was like a broken pot that had fallen from the sky. He made up his mind that he would never train by himself.

When he walked into a painting shop, a bizarre feeling attracted Sikong Lan to take a look inside. After hesitating for a moment, he turned around and entered the painting shop and looked at the dazzling painting. Sikong Lan felt his head grow two times bigger and immediately felt dizzy.

"Aiyo, I can tell that you are a noble just by looking at you. The paintings in this store are the most numerous in Luoyang City. Take a look." The boss had a crafty smile on his face as he pulled at his own sleeve. It was clear that he was not going to let Sikong Lan leave.

"I... I have a headache and I can't stand it. " Si Kong frowned and smiled apologetically, "Let's talk about it in the future. Let's talk about it in the future."

Si Kong Lan frowned and said, "Do you have any more neat paintings here? It just had a few words written on it and it was clean. "

"Yes. "Yes, wait a moment." As the boss spoke, he walked into the back hall. Si Kong Lan could only shake her head and sigh as she glanced at the various paintings in the surroundings. Unknowingly, Sikong Lan had lost the feeling of dizziness. In any case, he felt that it was getting more and more interesting, so he started to carefully examine the painting before him.

When he saw Sikong Lan, he was stunned for a moment. Unlike the time when he went in to look for a painting, Sikong Lan seemed to be in high spirits and his eyes were sharp. The boss didn't dare to look straight into Sikong Lan's eyes and lowered his head, saying, "What do you think of Li Bai's' Heroes'?" As he spoke, he passed the calligraphy and paintings to Sikong Lan.

Si Kong Lan took the calligraphy and painting and opened it to take a look. It was not bad: other than the blank space in the middle where a poem was written neatly, the rest of the calligraphy and painting were clean. It gave people a pleasant feeling. Si Kong Lan immediately nodded her head and decided to buy the painting, "Boss, how much is this painting?"

"It's too expensive. Ten taels of silver." Si Kong Lan threw the calligraphy and paintings back into the hands of her boss and turned around to admire the other calligraphy and paintings. The meaning behind her words was clear. If her boss insists on bidding at 50 taels of silver, she will immediately leave.

"About this, thirty liang, you see …" As a businessman, the boss naturally knew how to observe customers' behavior, but the person in front of him was something he couldn't understand. He felt like he was being covered by a weird layer of gauze, "I have to feed other people too, 30 silver coins right?"

When he turned around to leave, he saw a picture of a carp hanging in the corner, as if there were hundreds or thousands of carp roaming about. But suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and a system notification popped up. I'll offer seventy silver taels and these two paintings will all belong to me. How about it? "

The shop owner thought he had misheard and blinked his eyes. He then said with a beaming smile, "No problem. No problem. You can take it." As for the Carp Diagram, it had been placed for more than two months now, and no one had come to ask for its value. Moreover, the price of the two calligraphy and paintings had been close to ten silver, but now the two calligraphy and paintings worth twenty-five silver had been sold for seventy silver, making the boss happy to sell them for forty-five silver.

After Si Kong Lan took the two sets of calligraphy and paintings, she immediately went to the inn to get a room with the 'Carp Diagram' on the table. As for that 'Heroic Assassin', it had long been thrown into the storage bracelet. Si Kong Lan was carefully looking at the 'Carp Diagram' in front of her. She felt that it was a little strange, but she was unable to pinpoint exactly why.

When he first saw the "Carp Diagram", he heard a system prompt: Player Thoughtless Mist Spiritual Altar flashes, permanently increasing Comprehension by 10 points. Looking at the attributes bar that displayed "Comprehension 81, Innate Ability 36, Six Records 07, Fortune 87, Movement Skill 61", Si Kong Lan felt that this "Carp Carp Diagram" must have some secret. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to suddenly increase his Comprehension by 10 points, which was why he bought this painting.

However, when he looked at the item screen and saw the words "Carp Diagram", there was no other indication. Si Kong Lan looked at the drawing and sighed. He put the drawing away in his storage space and left the room. As soon as he went downstairs, he saw a beggar begging, while the waiter came to chase him away with a broom.

"Wait!" Si Kong Lan raised her hand to stop the waiter, "Bring some good dishes and two jugs of liquor … If you don't mind, I'll treat you. "

"Little brother, is that you?" The beggar looked at Sikong Lan and said with a smile, "Good, the old man can also go drink on the table today." Then, he sat down in an empty seat at the side.

Si Kong Lan also sat down and poured a cup of wine for the beggar. The beggar in front of him was the beggar that day in the Wutong Village who asked for food from Sikong Lan. The one that Sikong Lan called 'robbing elder' was an NPC beggar. In fact, Si Kong Lan didn't know why she invited him. However, since she had invited him to sit, she should just treat it as an rude apology from the last time.

"Little brother, nowadays, there aren't many people who know how to respect their elders." The beggar laughed as he received the wine from Sikong Lan and gulped it down. "Today, this old man is very happy. Haha."

Sikong Lan laughed, and poured another cup of wine for the beggar, and smiled: "Why are you here? Aren't you in Wutong Village? "

"Hur hur, that place is deserted." The beggar drank another cup of wine, but unfortunately, he did not feel satisfied, so he just picked up the entire pot of liquor and started drinking, "However, the folk style is not bad, it's simple … … "Help!"

This old beggar was most likely drunk, and his speech had started to sound muddled. As he watched the waiter begin to serve the dishes, Sikong Lan also stopped drinking and picked up the chopsticks to taste them. After the first mouthful entered his throat, it felt like incense, almost identical to the taste of the real world.

Seeing that there were more dishes in front of him, the beggar did not stand on ceremony with Sikong Lan. He picked up his chopsticks and started wolfing down the food. Sikong Lan was stunned once again. She smiled bitterly and asked the waiter to serve more dishes. Taking this opportunity, Si Kong Lan recalled the scene when she obtained the "Carp Diagram". She could only vaguely remember taking a glance at it before she suddenly felt that there were a lot of carp rolling in the waves, just like a group of wild horses running on the prairie. In the end, the system prompted her that her perception would permanently increase by 10, then everything would disappear.

The beggar looked at Sikong Lan and said with a smile, "Little brother seems to be in trouble?"

"Hur hur, that's right. I was troubled by a question." Si Kong Lan looked at the beggar's clear eyes and suddenly felt that this beggar in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person, but he couldn't tell what was different. Seeing the beggar's smiling yet not smiling face, Si Kong Lan also laughed.

"Little brother, sometimes it's yours, it can't be forced even if it isn't yours." The beggar said as he placed the last piece of meat into his mouth. Then, he picked up the remaining pot of liquor and stood up to bid farewell to Sikong Lan.

Si Kong Lan just stared at the beggar blankly. She carefully thought about what the beggar had said: "If it's yours, it's yours. If it's not yours, then she can't force it." Indeed, didn't he have never been so persistent before? Why did his personality change so much after entering the game? Could this be the real me?

Si Kong Lan turned around and looked at the smiling beggar. She stood up and bowed, "Thank you for your enlightenment, senior. This silver ingot is from my heart. I hope that senior can get me some wine to drink on your way." The beggar laughed heartily, took the silver ingot and left. The system's voice echoed in Si Kong Lan's ears: Player's Comprehension has permanently increased by 5 points after being demoted by Hong Qi Gong.

Looking at the disappearing back of the beggar, Sikong Lan smiled. It was a warm smile. Today, his Comprehension had increased by 15 points. Now, his Comprehension had increased to 86 points. When he sat down again, the gloominess in his heart had already been swept away. He ate some food and left the inn.

Looking at the remaining eight taels of silver and the twenty taels of silver left on him, Sikong Lan's bitter smile appeared before him once more. But this time he had decided what to do. This was because Si Kong Lan realized that he had fallen for this game called 'paste'. He had never liked it before. He had decided to become a successful Heroic Assassin!

Log off, rest … Seeing his four roommates come off the line one after another, Sikong Lan's smile became even more obvious. It seemed like he had achieved his goal for being a lowly person.

"What are you laughing at? Third Bro? " The boss looked at Sikong Lan who was lying on the bed and asking, "Hehe, let me tell you a piece of good news. I received a mission from the Hua Shan Sect to go into seclusion! Wait for me to come out. It will definitely be a hundred times better than what I have now! "

"I've also received a mission." Second Brother Suifeng's smile was also very thick. "If I do well, I might be able to get Shaolin's' Marrow Washing Scripture ', haha!" When that time comes, I'll be able to train to the bone root of the highest under the heavens, and then I'll be able to live for ten thousand years. "

"So, we all accepted the sect's mission?" "I've also received a mission from our Duan Clan, but I don't know what the reward is exactly, and I don't think it's anything lousy. According to my knowledge, I'm the only one who joined the Duan Clan, so all the missions would definitely be on me."

"There's no hope for third brother and me." The fifth brother, Heaven's Edge's Remnant Dream said dejectedly, "I'm planning on betraying the sect, damn it!" What lousy Tang Sect, waste my time! "

"Haha …" Looking at the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, Si Kong Lan had no choice but to say what had happened to him. The result was a series of screams, followed by curses, laments, and other kinds of emotions. Other than Si Kong Lan, who was still smiling, the other four people all went crazy …

"If it's yours, then it's yours. If it's not yours, then it can't be forced either." Si Kong Lan took out Hong Qi Gongzi's teachings and gave it to the four of them without changing a single bit. Following which, a wave of angry curses rang out...
