In the third week of November, Xu Ran still stayed in the novice village and worked part-time to earn game currency. According to Yun Zhongyue's experience outside Ping'an Town, combined with the situation that the personal information of "Blowing Snow" at that time showed that he still had the advanced technique of "Running Thunder Thorn", Xu Ran decided that when he left the novice village, he would have to learn to master at least one advanced technique of cold weapons, in case of emergency.

This week, every time Xu Ran logged in to the game, he still went to the spiritual thorn practice room first, practiced the spirit thorn, and after practicing the spirit thorn, he no longer went to herd sheep, but went to the blacksmith shop twice a day to strike iron, so as to speed up the efficiency of earning game currency. On Tuesday afternoon, when Xu Ran logged on to the dream game, his personal information changed again: mental power 12 (originally 11); Strength: 15; Stamina: 15; HP: 120. In this situation, every time Xu Ran entered the practice room, he could have two chances to launch a spirit thorn; Of course, he would not let go of such a rare opportunity to practice sending out spiritual stabs; Every time you enter the dream game, you will first enter the spiritual stabbing practice room, and practice until the mental power value is reduced from 12 to 10 and then go to the iron. This week, the preparation time for Xu Ran's first spiritual thorn is about 10 seconds at the fastest, and the time interval between the second launch of the spiritual thorn and the first spiritual thorn is about three minutes at the beginning, and it only takes 1 minute by the weekend. Xu Ran's iron-striking work is now easy to deal with, although he is iron-striking twice a day, and he doesn't feel tired after the game.

This week, Xu Ran made a profit of 42 silver coins, and practiced the spirit thorn to pay 28 copper coins, as of Sunday (that is, November 22), Xu Ran's personal game currency total: 21 gold coins, 3 silver coins and 3 copper coins. The decoration project Xu Ran had at hand was delivered this Friday, and the relevant delivery materials were also sorted out on Saturday and Sunday; I no longer need to go to work in Wang Jie's decoration company next week, which is an official resignation. On Sunday night, Wang Jie called all the employees of the company and gave Xu Ran a farewell dinner. The people in the company were reluctant to give up on Xu Ran's departure; In particular, several female comrades said to Xu Ran: "If you are not satisfied with the development outside, then return to the company, and everyone will continue to be colleagues." ”

After Xu Ran's video became famous on the Internet, some people also did a doxing search for Xu Ran; Xu Ran usually behaves and seems unassuming, and he is full of righteous indignation when he sees Lu Lu that day, when he is not the same as when he usually treats people and things, some people who know him feel like him but dare not confirm it, and when he asks him, he says no; Their colleagues in the decoration company believed that it must be him, especially a few colleagues who witnessed it at the time and the last time he used force, Xu Ran's style in the video was obviously the same as that time. But since he doesn't want to admit it, everyone won't go out and talk nonsense to the media.

At the cocktail party, a few female colleagues praised him for this, saying that he did a good job; He also forced him to talk about what happened at that time and when he went to the police station later, Xu Ran told everyone a summary, and at the same time hoped that everyone would not go out and talk about it everywhere, he didn't want himself to become famous because of this incident. For the four strong men who were so neat that day, Xu Ran thought about it afterwards and felt that the movements were particularly clean and neat. The reason for this is of course related to himself and learning advanced martial arts, but Xu Ran feels that it should also have a lot to do with the improvement of his spiritual strength. At that time, I was just using my body's intuition to do it, and the purpose was to defeat all those strong men; In hindsight, I thought about the reaction of my brain at that time, it was very quick and decisive, and my judgment of the situation around me was quite accurate and meticulous; In the process of knocking down several people on the other side and knocking them down, the parts of each move and the effect produced seem to have been predicted in advance according to the actual situation at the time; And the final result is the same as my prediction.

Just like in the hands-on process, every action and the results that can be produced by yourself have been given an optimized plan in advance in the brain at any time and in combination with the changes in the situation on the spot, and you only need to follow your intuition and implement the optimization plan in accordance with it. The last time he was in the hotel, when he beat the three men who borrowed wine to find trouble, but he didn't have it, the last time his own ability, although he also won the three men, but the result of the victory, the brain was not very clear, when he hit the opponent, he also needed to decide whether he needed to hit the second or even the third time according to the opponent's confrontation state; And this time, when he hit his opponent, his brain had clearly judged whether he needed to bother to make up for the second move, and how to make up for it, and the next second move. Xu Ran felt that in this case, it should be his brain thinking and more agile; The CPU similar to the brain is accelerated, and the computing speed is naturally accelerated; Therefore, it is more efficient to deal with things.

Xu Ran talked about this phenomenon and thoughts with Kong Xiuying in QQ's private chat; Kong Xiuying thinks that if he just has a quick brain and can't keep up with his body movements, he may not have such a precise effect; Kong Xiuying also watched the video at that time, and Kong Xiuying thought that Xu Ran's body movements and reactions were also very agile and coordinated; I don't know if it's due to the increase in mental power, which also increases the reaction speed of the nervous system. Two days ago, Xu Ran also discovered a phenomenon that his hearing has also improved; At that time, he was in the dormitory, cutting his nails, and occasionally found that the nail fragments cut off and the sound made when they hit the ground were very clear to him, and he really hadn't noticed that the nail fragments could still make such a clear sound after they landed; Not only did he hear the sound, but he could immediately see the nail fragments that had fallen to the ground; This shows that his ability to accurately locate according to his voice is also very strong.

In the first few days of the week, Xu Ran learned a little bit on the Internet, the knowledge of jewelry antiques, and also learned some knowledge of jade jewelry, he had never cared about these things before, after these few days of learning and understanding, he really learned a lot of conceptual knowledge, which is considered to have some knowledge of jade jewelry; On Saturday and Sunday mornings, Xu Ran went to the city's antique markets and visited a few shops, all of which were antique shops such as jewelry and jade.

Xu Ran chose to go to the antique shop to hunt for treasures because he found that many modern jade jewelry are not natural, but artificially processed and synthesized through the Internet these days. For this kind of jade material, Xu Ran instinctively felt that the possibility of being able to increase his spiritual power was very slim; Therefore, he thought that if he focused on antiques, the chances of success would be greater, at least the ancients would not be counterfeit in terms of materials. After patronizing a few antique shops, Xu Ran found that he obviously didn't understand the price of the goods inside; Some things that he thought should be very high-end were not sold at a high price, and some things that he thought were in poor condition were sold at prices that he could not imagine; However, the reason here, Xu Ran can understand it if he thinks about it, after all, there is still in it, and the value of the cultural relics themselves is inside, and they can't be priced just by looking at their condition.

Although Xu Ran didn't know how much the real value of these antiques should be worth, he didn't bother about it, because what he cared about was not the historical value of these cultural relics, what he cared about was whether it had the practical value of increasing the value of spiritual power, if it had this function, it would be a priceless treasure for Xu Ran, as long as he could afford it, he would definitely buy it; And the practical value of this aspect will certainly not be clear to the store; So he believes that it is impossible for the store to take advantage of this to dominate himself. Now the key is to see if you can find such an item.
