Tomb Raider: The man is in the Nine Gates, but the system insists it's the Primordial Era.

On the road in front of the platform.

The area was crowded with stall owners selling all sorts of items.

Do you sell any martial arts secrets or techniques?

Antiques and collectibles.

Watch with a leather strap.

Beautiful rare birds.

Earth turtle, earth eel, and earth pork.

But most of them were used to deceive passengers traveling by train to Beiping.

Having lived two lives, Su Mu, who understands people's hearts, walked up to the stall whose name was specially marked by the system.

The stall in front of me sells all kinds of books.

The stall owner is arranging the books on his stall, placing different types of books in different locations.

As Su Mu was thinking, his eyes suddenly lit up when he saw a certain book.

"Shopkeeper Su also enjoys reading?"

The girl, arm in arm with Er Yuehong, followed Zhang Qishan and the others.

The maid bent down, preparing to find some ancient books and poems that Er Yuehong couldn't buy in Changsha.

Zhang Qishan wasn't very interested in this.

Qi Tiezui casually asked, "Boss, how much are these books?"

The stall owner looked up at the group of people who had suddenly come to his stall, and grinned, "That depends on what kind of book you want to buy. Martial arts manuals like these are more expensive, while folk arts here are only sold at high prices."

"How much is this one?" Su Mu asked, pointing to one of the books that had been reproduced countless times.

The stall owner pursed his lips: "This one is the most expensive. I also have an illustration here, priced at 100 coins."

"100 coins can buy ten catties of rice!"

The crowd shook their heads.

Suddenly, everyone took a closer look at the book Su Mu had pointed to. The girls blushed, while the boys looked puzzled.

The words "Jin Ping Mei" are printed on the top of the hardcover book.

"I want this one, and this one too."

Su Mu then pointed to the book of divine fighting techniques.

"Haha, little boss, you have a good eye. Here's what we'll do: I'll sell both of them together for 150 coins."

"make a deal."

"I don't have any change, here you go."

"I...I...did I sell it too cheaply...?"

"..."

Seeing the few people in front of the stall still hesitating over a hundred coins, complaining about the stall owner's expensive price, I looked down at the silver coin in my hand with a big head engraved on it, and saw a few black lines hanging on my forehead.

People who can easily pull out a lot of money actually complain that the items at his stall are too expensive?

After receiving the goods.

At the same time, Qi Tiezui and Er Yuehong both smiled.

Zhang Qishan doesn't usually go to the market to buy things himself, so he naturally doesn't know that wealth shouldn't be flaunted and that every penny saved is a penny earned.

However, Er Yuehong, Qi Tiezui, and others were experts in this field.

Without knowing how to manage finances, how could they have achieved their current wealth and status?

Despite their aloof and superior demeanor in Changsha, they actually have to handle mundane tasks like calculating income and expenditure ledgers every day.

Being a hands-off manager is easy, but managing a large family business is not so simple.

However, everyone looked at Su Mu with strange expressions, unaware that Su Mu had a fondness for reading erotic books, and even made the move of buying such books in front of everyone.

The item has arrived.

Su Mu casually flipped through the forbidden book in front of everyone, then handed it to them: "Do you want this book?"

The crowd shook their heads.

Even if some people had such thoughts, who would dare to accept it in front of everyone?

Su Mu nodded, casually tossed the forbidden book aside, and instead kept the Divine Strike Manual, which was worth only 50 coins, close to his body.

"I see. Manager Su, you didn't know that? Although the art of divine fighting isn't often written and sold, every street performer knows it. What's there to collect?"

The girl covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

The others all shook their heads.

Su Mu strode forward, too lazy to bother with this group of people.

From the beginning of the policy of isolation, local Chinese folk culture has suffered severe suppression.

After the opening of sea and land transportation, as well as air and rail stations, the intrusion of foreign cultures became severe.

In addition, the number of swindlers in China who use traditional culture to cheat and deceive others in order to make a living is constantly increasing.

This has led many people to mistakenly believe that certain traditional knowledge and skills accumulated over thousands of years are merely tricks to deceive the ignorant and foolish masses.

However, from the perspective of an outsider, Su Mu witnessed a unique scene unlike anything he saw from everyone around him.

During this period, many older people still possessed genuine skills and abilities.

Whether they are astrologists or itinerant craftsmen, their skills and abilities are extremely strong and very real.

The only difference between Su Mu and these people with special inherited abilities is that he possesses a 'misalignment judgment' system.

The "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Secret Technique" truly exists.

Zhang Sanlianzi's lineage of tomb raiders rose to prominence thanks to this book, which was later passed down to Hu Bayi, who also learned all the skills.

The "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Secret Technique" fell into Su Mu's hands, and the Misalignment System determined the "Sixteen Hexagrams of the Heavenly Cycle," completing the missing parts.

The "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing" and "Yunji Qiqian" were originally common, widely available ancient scriptures.

However, when it fell into Su Mu's hands, the Misalignment System judged it as the "most original and true version" and restored its proper function.

The so-called divine intervention.

These are the performance techniques commonly used by folk craftsmen when they travel around the country, such as "hard qigong," "climbing a mountain of knives," "going into a frying pan," and "holding a red-hot branding iron."

But this book is different.

The staff of the Crescent Hotel, who were welcoming everyone, simply chuckled and shook their heads.

Born in Beiping, they had seen their share of ups and downs. When they saw Su Mu and the others being curious about the roadside stalls, they couldn't say it outright, but they all thought to themselves that Su Mu and the others were ultimately just local people from a remote corner of the countryside.

He had only just entered Beiping, the site of the Forbidden City throughout history, when he looked at the surrounding things with a curious and delighted expression, like a country bumpkin.

"Gentlemen, the car is right by the roadside, please get in."

The staff from the Crescent Moon Hotel opened the car doors for everyone, got in, and acted as drivers.

Su Mu and Huo Xian'er entered the back of one of the cars. Qi Tiezui looked around and then sat in the passenger seat of Su Mu's car.

Because Zhang Qishan had already gotten into the passenger seat of the first car, while Er Yuehong and his wife Ya Tou were sitting in the back.

Following closely behind were Zhang's personal guards.

After getting on the bus.

Su Mu took out the book on divine techniques he had bought and began to read it.

Bored, Huo Xian'er glanced sideways and curiously looked around as well.

【Meishan Divine Strike】

【Maoshan Divine Strike】

[Six Ren Divine Strategy]

【Huaguang Divine Strike】

Shaolin martial arts

Su Mu quickly skipped over the unfamiliar and obscure contents of the table of contents that were completely foreign to Huo Xian'er beside him.

If Su Mu hadn't seen the term "Three Saints Divine Strike"...

Perhaps he really needs to study the preceding content carefully.

After all, hard qigong is still a kind of skill.

It is said that when heaven and earth were first separated, yin and yang were divided, and the Dao gave birth to primordial energy, which nurtured all gods. Since ancient times, evil spirits have proliferated in the world, and demonic influences have caused chaos, harming and killing, corrupting the Dharma and destroying truth...

Upon seeing this tedious content, Huo Xian'er shook her head and returned to her seat.

This thing looks like a scam written by some educated people.

Su Mu actually took it seriously?

Su Mu didn't pay attention to the emotional changes of the people around him; he simply continued to flip through the pages and observe them carefully.

[The Supreme Lord, out of compassion for all living beings, transmitted the teachings to the gods to establish spiritual communication. Using the human body as the altar, the mind as the contract, talismans as the bridge, and seals as the guide, he respectfully invites the righteous deities of the Three Realms to descend to the mortal realm, possess human bodies, borrow true spirits, display divine power, subdue evil spirits, protect the Dao, and save all living beings.]

The wonder of divine strikes lies not in brute force, but in spiritual possession and the manifestation of divine power...
