Zhou Chen returned home and practiced until midnight again. Seeing that he still had no results, he fell asleep.
Another day passed, and Zhou Chen still didn't give up. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, no matter how deeply he mastered the Pure Yang Art, he still had no sense of energy.
After two days, although he has not been sentenced to death, he has already understood in his heart that this is probably not a simple problem of talent. In all likelihood, it is really impossible to develop internal strength in the real world.
Although there are often rumors of qigong masters in China, the so-called qigong should be essentially different from internal strength, and it is more likely due to physical fitness.
After trying for three days without success, Zhou Chen stopped insisting. Since the internal skills were not good enough, he started practicing external skills.
Now his physical fitness is estimated to be top-notch across the world, and he has rich combat experience in the world of Langya Bang. Although he has never seen the so-called top soldier king in the real world, if there is a real fight, he feels
You may not be bad yourself.
In the world of Langya Bang, he not only learned internal skills, he also learned a lot of martial arts moves, and his boxing and kicking skills were not bad.
There is no internal strength to support him, but with his current physical fitness and skill, it is absolutely no problem for him to fight twenty or thirty people at a time without using hot weapons.
In modern society, with sound laws and omnipotent eyes, it may not be possible to use force to suppress chaos, but with force at hand, it can play a big role in many cases.
You don't have to be a hero, just protecting yourself can show the value of force.
With decades of experience in martial arts training, his physical fitness is not bad, but after all, his body has not been properly trained. Some simple moves are naturally easy to master, but those complex moves and routines cannot be mastered in three or four days.
Yes, it takes time to practice slowly.
After staying at home for a few days, Zhou Chen made an appointment with Li Luo to go to the city early in the morning, and first went to his studio to spend a while.
Li Luo is a person who can sit still very well. When Zhou Chen was busy in the studio and assigned tasks, she would sit alone in the office reading and surfing the Internet without disturbing Zhou Chen at all.
At lunch time, Zhou Chen took Li Luo to the mall for dinner.
"Zhou Chen, my dad asked you to come to our house in the evening and tell you something."
"Uncle Li, do you want to see me if you have something to do?"
"Well, I heard my dad mention that it seems to be related to antiques."
"Okay, I know. When we go back in the afternoon, we will go directly to your house."
Zhou Chen was not surprised to hear that it was because of the antiques. When he went to Li's house last time, he saw Li Ruiyang's antiques, and he knew that Li Ruiyang was a good and playful antique player.
I just don’t know if Li Ruiyang got another antique and wanted him to appraise it, or if it was for other reasons.
"After I finish eating, shall we go shopping or go to the movies? Or sit in a cafe?"
Li Luo thought for a while and replied: "Let's go to the movies. A lot of new movies will be released during the National Day. We can go and watch them."
"Okay, then I'll buy the tickets on my phone now."
Now it happens to be the National Day, which is a movie explosion period. There are a lot of good movies released at this time every year.
And when it comes to watching movies, Zhou Chen really has a novel feeling. Living in the world of Langya Bang for nearly eighty years made him feel unfamiliar with the use of electronic products when he first came back.
Even the electronic products I use frequently feel strange, not to mention the movie theaters I only go to a few times a year.
Li Luo is not a talkative person, he is a very quiet person. Some people may not like this personality, but Zhou Chen thinks it is very good.
He has lived for too long and has seen too much noise and noise in the world, so he would feel good if his partner is a quiet person in the future.
He has been with Li Luo for a long time, and he also found that although Li Luo talks little, he is not a lack of emotion or a very indifferent person. He is more of a social fear and doesn't like to communicate with unfamiliar people. Every time
No matter what he asked, Li Luo could talk to him patiently.
Zhou Chen has lived in so many worlds, and the most indispensable thing is dealing with people, so even though Li Luo is more difficult to get along with than ordinary people, it is not a problem at all for him.
After the meal, the two walked around the mall, bought some drinks, and then went to the cinema upstairs together.
They chose a comedy. After the movie was played, the movie hall burst into laughter. However, in the second half, the laughter gradually decreased. At the end, some people could even be heard sobbing.
The core of comedy is often tragedy, and the same is true for this movie. It is funny in the early stage, but touching and sad in the later stage.
Zhou Chen didn't hide his emotions either. He laughed when he felt funny and kept silent when he felt sad.
In this regard, Li Luo next to him is quite in sync with him. Li Luo has a higher point of laughter and a higher point of sadness. Unlike ordinary emotional women, Li Luo will not shed tears easily.
After watching the movie, Zhou Chen and Li Luo walked around the mall for a while. Li Luo bought some small accessories such as headbands in the jewelry store, and then they headed back home.
Before going to Li's house, Zhou Chen went to the fruit shop to buy some fruit. When he arrived at Li's house, Li Ruiyang had already gotten home from get off work.
"Xiao Zhou, you're here, come in quickly."
Li Ruiyang greeted Zhou Chen very warmly. He is now more and more optimistic about Zhou Chen. He feels that this young man has a good temperament for him and has a promising future.
"Uncle, aunt, excuse me." Zhou Chen greeted with a smile.
Zhu Xiuqin chuckled and said: "No bother, no bother, you kid, didn't I tell you last time, don't bring anything with you, just look at it, it's a waste of money again."
"Auntie, this is what it should be. It's just some fruit, not a good thing."
Zhou Chen put down the fruit with a smile, and at Li Ruiyang's invitation, he came to sit on the sofa, while Zhu Xiuqin took Li Luo to the kitchen to cook.
"Xiao Zhou, you came to my place last time and looked at my collection. Afterwards, I asked a teacher for advice. Guess what? Several people said the same thing as you. I was really shocked."
When it comes to eye punching, Li Ruiyang is really upset. Although he also knows that his level is not high, he bought so many fakes and is completely regarded as a cheat by others.
Zhou Chen comforted him: "Uncle, in fact, this is not all your fault. This era is no different than ten or twenty years ago. If you want to receive good things, you must not only rely on your eyesight, but also need to see more.
Luck, you must be unlucky."
Although he knew Zhou Chen meant to comfort him, Li Ruiyang felt somewhat comfortable. After all, he was more than twenty years older than Zhou Chen, and as a result, he was not as discerning as Zhou Chen. It was really difficult to save face.
"Xiao Zhou, you are right. It is really difficult to receive good things now. Otherwise, I would not have been deceived so many times. I have to be more cautious when buying things in the future."
Zhou Chen echoed: "Yes, it's better to be cautious, it's better to be cautious."
After chatting for a while, Li Ruiyang finally got down to business.
"Xiao Zhou, I asked Luoluo to call you over today. Actually, I have something to ask your opinion on."
"Uncle, if you have any questions, you can ask directly. You're welcome."
"It's like this. A friend of mine who plays antiques told me that at the end of next month, Jinling will hold a small private auction. The auction will be all antiques. I will go there to participate. If you are interested,
If so, I will go with my uncle then."
"Private antiques auction?"
Zhou Chen was very surprised. He had experienced many such things in other worlds, especially in the world under the Zhengyang Sect. He had dealt with the Tufu Zi countless times. For such a private antique auction, naturally,
It won't be unfamiliar.
"Uncle, the items at the auction you mentioned are probably from raw materials, right?"
Li Ruiyang was obviously stunned: "A pitfall? I haven't heard this from my friends. Xiao Zhou, do you mean there is something wrong with the things at the auction?"
Zhou Chen shook his head and said: "Although I have rarely participated in the buying and selling of antiques, I also know that there are many ways to do it. Private auctions are definitely not public. I guess the goods in them must be stolen.
And it’s not necessarily true.”
"That's quite interesting."
Unexpectedly, Li Ruiyang actually laughed: "Xiao Zhou, to tell you the truth, I have never participated in an auction of this nature. If it is like what you said, wouldn't this auction rely on eyesight?"
"It's hard for me to say this. After all, I'm not familiar with the situation in Jinling, and the safety of this kind of private auction is also questionable."
"Xiao Zhou, you can rest assured. My friend is not a simple person. Although he is not like this in Jinling, he is not bullied by anyone. Since he told me, it means that the auction is not a big problem.
."
Li Ruiyang obviously has great confidence in his friends and feels that there will be no problem with safety.
Zhou Chen said: "If that's the case, then I'm really interested. If it's convenient for you, I'll go with you to learn more."
"Haha, great, it's settled then. I'll introduce you to some friends in the industry then."
Li Ruiyang was very happy. He had seen Zhou Chen's level. He could identify so many of his collections in a short period of time. This was not something ordinary people could do. He was an absolute professional.
"Thank you very much, uncle."
Zhou Chen responded with a smile. Although Li Ruiyang's level is not good, it does not mean that his friends are not good. What's more, even if Li Ruiyang's friends are not good, it is definitely not easy to be friends with Li Ruiyang. Just treat it as a friendship.
The connections are also worth visiting.
"Lao Li, Xiao Zhou, don't talk anymore, the food is ready, come and eat quickly." Zhu Xiuqin brought the dishes to the table and called to Li Ruiyang and Zhou Chen.
Li Ruiyang laughed and said: "Xiao Zhou, you have nothing to do today, how about we two drink a few cups?"
Li Luo said: "Dad, Zhou Chen drove here."
