First of all, among the seven fates, Zhao Huai felt that the most useless ones were of course the two fates of character.
They were obtained from a great Confucian calligraphy book and a famous painting handed down from ancient times.
[Dance, Write and Ink] and [Introduction to Painting].
The first one can make his writing beautiful, and he can be proficient in running script, regular script, and cursive script, just like what a calligrapher writes. The other one can give him the talent of painting, and he can draw what he likes.
But he doesn't need to write well, nor does he need to rely on painting to support his family. If he had been an artist in his previous life, it would be of little use at present.
Zhao Huai never raised useless fates. He would let them go to the bottom of the box to eat ashes without even thinking about it. He could use them to upgrade other fates.
Then there are three yellow horoscopes, namely: [Expert in Appreciating Treasures] [Eight-faced Exquisite] [Doctor of Classics].
[Treasure Appraisal Expert] The name is easy to understand, and it is a destiny that improves his ability to identify treasures. He can tell the authenticity and flaws of treasures at a glance, which sounds quite suitable for him who runs a pawn shop.
But to be honest, this destiny is not satisfactory to Zhao Huai.
Because of the existence of copper coins, Zhao Huai does not need to know the authenticity of the collection. He only needs to know whether this item should be collected.
And [Eight-faced Exquisiteness] is a social type of destiny, which can make him eloquent, smooth in dealing with things, possessing a sharp tongue, and being considerate in dealing with others.
[Doctor of Classics] is born out of a pile of ancient classics. It allows people to master a vast knowledge of scriptures, easily understand various obscure classics theories, learn the practice of eight-legged essays, and gain the ability to have a photographic memory and write The articles that came out were like those of the great Confucians of the time, and they were completely at the pinnacle of Confucian classics.
The question is, what does it do to him?
Zhao Huai was following the path of cultivating immortals, moving forward without hesitation, and not sacrificing his life to the emperor's family. If a scholar got it, it would be fine.
Candidates in previous lives would have been so excited that they couldn't sleep if they got it.
Fortunately, the last two Xuanpin horoscopes can still give Zhao Huai some comfort. Looking down, the horoscope information came into view.
[Bone Refining Jade (Low Xuan Grade)]: Absorb this destiny, allowing your bones to transform and become as hard as spiritual jade.
[Transparent Heart of the Sword (Medium Xuanpin)]: The mind is like a clear state, liberating the upper limit of the swordsmanship learned. The swordsmanship has been separated from the fixed sword moves, and the swordsmanship can change at will.
Zhao Huai is still very satisfied with these two fates.
The former is carved from a hundred-year-old jade dragon bone carving, which can further strengthen his defense methods. Ling jade is one of the materials for making magic weapons. After turning into jade, it can withstand extremely strong impacts and has a stronger life-saving ability.
[Vajra Body] can only guarantee that the iron-skinned Vajra is indestructible, and [Refining Bones and Transforming into Jade] can just make up for the shortcomings.
Copper skin and jade bones complement each other.
The latter was obtained from an ancient sword sacrificed to ancestors. It was originally a magic weapon. As a hundred years passed, its power was greatly reduced and it became a symbol.
This fate can not only help him learn swordsmanship and master swordsmanship, but more importantly, break through the upper limit.
Every sword technique has an upper limit, or shortcomings and disadvantages. These form the shackles of the sword technique, and [Sword Heart Transparency] can break the upper limit and make a sword technique more powerful than before. In Kendo Go further up.
And through these seven fates, Zhao Huai got a rule.
The higher the value of an object, the rarer the destiny you get. High-value objects can open up high-level and useful destiny, as well as low-level and useless destiny. However, low-value objects can only open up low-level destiny and cannot. Leap level.
For example, the earth-grade destiny he obtained [Good Luck at the Head] was obtained through the mysterious ring of an unknown monk. The value of the treasures inside was completely worthy of an earth-grade.
On the other hand, Mr. Huang's fakes, as well as some sparse and ordinary things, have very limited value and can only show low-level character.
Zhao Huai was looking at a cart of antique treasures, picking through them, putting them down and picking them up again, one after another. A long time passed, at least half an hour passed.
Of course Mr. Huang would not stand there, but lay in the sedan with a leisurely expression, waiting slowly. There was an extra pipe in his hand, and he was smoking comfortably, with white smoke rising from time to time.
Zhao Huai checked the fortune and found Mr. Huang.
"That's pretty much it. Could you please tell me when the money will be settled?"
"As long as the shopkeeper wants, it can be done now."
Mr. Huang sat up with a smile and took a look at the items Zhao Huai selected.
His smile full of joy suddenly froze, but soon returned, but the smile was not as strong as before, and instead looked a little forced.
Because he saw that the things Zhao Huai took away were not many, but they were all the best in this batch!
And they are all genuine!
He clearly and carefully forged a large number of fakes. How did he do it without choosing any of them? Even if he has good eyesight, he can't be so exaggerated. Isn't this one a loss?
This is so wrong.
Mr. Huang was obviously extremely depressed.
He immediately thought firmly that after the sale was over, he must not let the shopkeeper simply take away these things.
Zhao Huai could obviously see the subtle changes in Mr. Huang's face, but he naturally pretended not to notice and squinted at the middle-aged man next to him.
On the other hand, the middle-aged guard on the side looked much more relaxed.
Zhao Huai secretly wondered why this person cared about the whereabouts of these relics? Could it be that there is some special connection with them?
In other words, these relics were not discovered by Mr. Huang, but by this middle-aged guard?
Zhao Huai thought for a moment and tentatively said:
"Mr. Huang, how did you get these relics from the old dynasty? That is, the person who passed them through your hands before. If I were accused of taking your things, it would be bad. Do you understand what I mean? .”
After hearing this, Mr. Huang's eyes flashed with a hint of vigilance, and he said with a comforting smile:
"Don't worry, shopkeeper, these were all sold to me by down-and-out princes and nobles after they were expelled from their titles. These Great Yan nobles were demoted to common people, and I was able to collect them now. So shopkeeper, don't worry, they are absolutely safe."
Zhao Huai nodded after hearing this. What Mr. Huang said sounded reasonable.
After the fall of Great Yan, the huge royal family fell apart and completely lost its previous privileges.
They live in the world and have no ability to support themselves. Many of them can only sell their jewelry secretly to exchange for family wealth.
But he didn't fully believe it. How could the princes and nobles obtain these national treasures? They were all locked in the emperor's private treasury.
Master Huang saw the expression on Zhao Huai's face and said doubtfully:
"I see that the shopkeeper is quite sympathetic to Dayan. Why is that?"
Zhao Huai sighed slightly and said with emotion: "Things have changed. Dayan has been in power for a hundred years. Zhao was born under the rule of Dayan after all. His grandfather once served as an official in Dayan. Even if three years have passed, it is difficult to let go. Ah. Although the Great Flame was like a thin mountain, there were still people who stood up and turned the tide."
"Any of Dayan's loyal ministers, Dayan's generals, and Dayan's soldiers did not sacrifice their lives for their country and died on the battlefield. It would be too callous to say that it is useless."
"Perhaps Dayan has many shortcomings, but after all, it is the old dynasty and old kindness, and we cannot forget them all."
