Chapter 7 New Skills

Xu Bai was about to pay, but suddenly he heard the bookstore owner asking, and looked at the bookstore owner with strange eyes.

"Are you sure you want this one? Is there any problem?"

Strange, do you have to confirm in advance before buying a book?

This is not that kind of book, what is there to confirm?

Although he didn't see the title of the book, he was sure that there were no illustrations on it when he flipped through it casually.

That's quite normal!

"Alas, guest, you must take care of your health. You are young and you must know how to be restrained. When I was young..." The bookstore owner sighed as he spoke.

Xu Bai was stunned, and subconsciously glanced at the book on the table, and then his mouth twitched.

There were four words written on the book - the key to strengthening the kidney.

No wonder, no wonder he had such a look...

Xu Bai took a deep breath and asked again: "How much?"

Don't argue, the more you argue about some things, the more unclear they are.

And no one knows him, so what if he has kidney deficiency?

"Thirty cents." The bookstore owner said.

"So expensive?" Xu Bai was stunned.

He finally understood why no one bought books in the bookstore.

This money is enough to eat and drink several times.

Buy books? Even dogs won't buy them.

"It's all this price, otherwise my bookstore wouldn't have no one buying books." The bookstore owner said worriedly.

Xu Bai didn't want to say more, handed over the money, picked up the book and was about to leave.

Before he took two steps, he suddenly stopped again and turned around and said, "Boss, how often do you get books here?"

"Here..." The bookstore owner thought for a while and said, "Once a month, the court attaches great importance to reading. In addition to the first purchase, you can also exchange it for free every month."

The Great Chu Kingdom valued military and literature.

The emperor especially valued the education of the grassroots, so even in a small county, there are bookstores.

"Boss, next time you change all the books in your store, I will come again next month. If there is something I like, money is not a problem." Xu Bai walked closer and stuffed a silver coin.

Since he could find something that could inspire his enlightenment here, Xu Bai would certainly not let it go.

Books were bought once a month and could be exchanged, so he would replace them all with new ones.

The bookstore owner was stunned, then he put them away silently and nodded with a smile.

The two agreed on a time, and when Xu Bai left, he stood at the door and waved.

This was the first time that someone gave him money, and the bookstore owner was in a good mood.

Xu Bai got the "Kidney-Strengthening Secrets", but he didn't want to continue wandering around. He put the book into his package and walked towards home.

Along the way, he was also thinking.

None of the other books triggered the enlightenment progress bar, only the "Kidney-Strengthening Secrets" triggered it. Does it mean that other books have no value to trigger it?

After thinking about it, Xu Bai had only this conclusion.

"Anyway, let's comprehend this book first."

He didn't think about it anymore and walked quickly towards home.

...

After passing through streets, Xu Bai finally stopped in front of a house west of the county town.

This house looks old, but it is the legacy left to him by his uncle.

After rummaging around in his waist, Xu Bai took out the key and opened the door.

"Squeak..."

Accompanied by the sound of the wooden door, Xu Bai pushed the door open, and there was no expected musty smell.

The room was clean and tidy. The original body was also a clean person and often cleaned it.

Xu Bai closed the door familiarly, found a chair to sit down, and couldn't wait to take out the "Kidney Strengthening Secrets".

Although the name is a bit vulgar, it is good to trigger enlightenment.

He has a good kidney, just know it himself.

Besides, it's okay to learn some kidney-tonifying methods.

As for men, there is a saying that when people reach middle age, they have no choice but to soak wolfberries in a thermos.

Although Xu Bai is still young, he still needs to protect his kidneys.

His eyes are fixed on the "Kidney Strengthening Secrets", and the progress bar moves very slowly.

Compared with the prison cell, the progress bar is much slower.

Xu Bai felt bored after staring at it for a long time.

"How about... read it?"

He swore that he was not reading it because he had kidney problems.

It was really boring. Anyway, staring at it would increase, and reading carefully would also increase, so it would be better to kill time.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai flipped through the pages.

He couldn't take his eyes off it after reading it.

He flipped the pages very slowly, and he read it very seriously.

"So it can be done this way."

"Huh? This action can strengthen the kidneys."

"Before going to bed, sleeping in this position can cure kidney yin deficiency?"

Xu Bai couldn't help nodding while reading it, and sighed from time to time.

He was really just curious.

The descriptions here are vivid and reasonable, and they are not as boring as other books.

When reading this book, Xu Bai also had an idea that the kidneys really need to be well protected and less manual work should be done.

Reading is a great way to kill time, especially when you are reading seriously.

Xu Bai even forgot about the progress bar until a line of text appeared in front of him, and then he realized that the progress bar was full.

[You have observed the key to strengthening the kidneys and comprehended the method of beating the kidneys. ]

Xu Bai was stunned. What is the method of beating the kidneys?

Before he could react, a series of information came to his mind, and then the blue panel in front of Xu Bai changed.

[Name: Xu Bai. ]

[Realm: Ninth-grade warrior. ]

[Bone-breaking knife technique (level 1): full level. ]

[Bone-breaking heart technique (level 1): full level. ]

[Beat the kidneys (level 1): full level. ]

[Comprehension: full level. ]

"Both are first-level, but the method of beating the kidneys takes longer than the bone-breaking series. It seems that the first level is also divided into high and low levels." Xu Bai touched his chin and came to a conclusion.

He felt very excited.

It was like meeting a stunning beauty and removing her makeup.

Each time a layer is removed, the excitement point is higher.

There are only two words to explore the golden finger.

—— Exciting.

When the excitement gradually faded, Xu Bai began to pay attention to the new ability.

The kidney-beating method is a bad name, at least Xu Bai thinks so.

But sometimes, the reality is often worse.

The reason is simple, the kidney-beating method is really a kidney-beating method.

Xu Bai stretched out his hand, and the true qi in his body flowed. Then, he beat the position of the left kidney in a way that ordinary people could not understand.

The true qi in the body became stronger, and kept rushing left and right.

"Being able to temporarily increase the true qi content is equivalent to an explosion." Xu Bai retracted his hand and said secretly.

After waiting for a stick of incense, the true qi in the body gradually disappeared.

This is just the case of beating one kidney. If both sides are beaten together, it will be stronger.

Although the name is quite bad, the effect can completely replace the name.

"Oh, I remember the negative effect is to weaken for half an hour."

Being too excited just now, Xu Bai tried it without thinking, and only then did he remember that this skill has a negative effect.

Xu Bai stood up, his steps were unsteady.

Walking to the table, he picked up the bronze mirror on the table, looked at the pale face in the bronze mirror, and put it down silently.

"In short, don't use it lightly."

Half an hour of weakness is one thing, but the most important thing is that he doesn't really want to be considered as having kidney deficiency.
