Chapter 64

Su Wen walked back to the Jubaizhai, considering whether to put the Yang Water up for auction as well. He had recovered 24 drops of Yang Water from the Jiangning Public Security Bureau. If he auctioned a few drops, he thought it would likely have a good effect.

"We'll see how it goes!"

He didn't make a decision right away; some things had to be done step by step. Jubaizhai was supposed to become a place where people begged to enter, and that couldn't be achieved just by putting things up for auction. The key was to have something worth selling, and the Jubaizhai store was crucial.

At home.

Su Wen saw Yi Xue drinking tea again and smiled, saying, "Honey, I'm back."

Yi Xue gave Su Wen a cold look and ignored him. Seeing that this method was ineffective, Su Wen didn't get discouraged. After all, talking didn't break any laws, and maybe once Yi Xue got used to it, she wouldn't like it if he stopped calling her that one day.

They sat idly for a while, and Su Wen found it boring. He looked at the sky, which was getting dark, and muttered, "Honey, shouldn't you start cooking?"

Yi Xue glared at Su Wen, "Don't call me honey."

Su Wen was a bit embarrassed and didn't say anything.

"I only agreed to make your breakfast, not dinner. If you want to eat, make it yourself." Yi Xue calmly continued drinking her tea, clearly not planning to cook for him.

"Fine, I'll make it. Do you think I can't cook?" Su Wen was a bit depressed but couldn't help muttering, "Once I marry you, I'll make you cook and take care of the kids, and serve me at night."

Yi Xue, hearing this, threw her cup at him.

"Damn, trying to kill me!"

Su Wen was startled and ran far away, but he still got wet.

Seeing Yi Xue's fierce look, he sighed, "Alright, I'm rich now, let's go eat out."

After Su Wen left, Yi Xue's face turned red.

On the street.

A few beggars saw Su Wen and were extremely excited.

"Little Brother Su, out for a stroll again?"

"Little Brother Su, need any help?"

"Little Brother Su, you're getting more handsome, worthy of being our benefactor."

Su Wen didn't care much, grabbed a handful of coins and paper money, and threw them into the beggars' bowls, saying, "Here, don't be shy, I have plenty of money."

The beggars were used to this and were all very excited.

After giving alms, Su Wen asked casually, "Where's the old beggar?"

One beggar, hearing Su Wen's question, whispered, "The boss went for a spa, I saw it with my own eyes."

Su Wen was stunned. The old beggar was living quite well, even having money for a spa, something Su Wen himself hadn't experienced.

"Tell him to come to Jubaizhai tomorrow, I need to talk to him."

"Sure thing!"

After Su Wen left, he started wandering aimlessly around Jiangning.

On the way, he kept searching for natural treasures, but true treasures were rare, especially in the city. According to Su Wen's guess, there should be many natural treasures in the mountains or the sea, especially the sea, which was largely unexplored.

He planned to check it out when he had time.

Unconsciously, he arrived at an ancient and elegant courtyard.

Su Wen was surprised, remembering that there was such a place in Jiangning. It seemed to have been the residence of a high official from a previous dynasty, which later fell into disuse and was now a cultural research center under the Cultural Bureau, essentially a cultural relic.

"Places like this are most likely to have treasures." Su Wen muttered to himself, "Unfortunately, I can only search for level one items now, but there are still many treasures among them. I hope they don't disappoint me."

A map of the courtyard appeared in front of him, with many light points scattered on it.

"Zoom in!"

"Damn, antiques... more antiques!"

"Why isn't there anything else? I know there are many antiques underground, but what use are antiques to me?"

While complaining, Su Wen suddenly saw a strange item.

It was a book.

A very ordinary book, probably not a hundred years old. That wasn't the key. He carefully looked at the cover and saw four large characters.

Shaolin Luohan Quan!

This book was actually a martial arts manual, or a secret martial arts technique.

Su Wen was stunned. This was the first time he had found such a recovery item. It was like discovering a new continent, and he was incredibly excited. If martial arts manuals were considered treasures, his future path wouldn't be lonely.

A high master's cave?

Ancient lost techniques?

Long-lost divine abilities?

Heaven! He was really going to get rich!

Thinking about this, Su Wen's mouth watered.

He could get some martial arts rewards by completing system tasks, but finding martial arts manuals himself was much more satisfying. If he got lucky and found a high master's cave, he could get countless martial arts manuals in no time and might even become a supreme expert overnight.

After being excited for a while, he found a problem.

He couldn't recover this Shaolin Luohan Quan at all.

But he didn't get discouraged. As long as his vitality increased a bit more, recovering this Shaolin Luohan Quan wouldn't be a problem. He didn't doubt that the manual was fake; it was definitely genuine.

"I'll leave it here for now and come back to collect it later." Su Wen decided.

After leaving, he returned directly to his residence.

Yi Xue was nowhere to be found, and Chu Fei hadn't come back. He lay on the bed, feeling very comfortable.

At that moment.

Xiao Tian's voice came, "Master, good news, the progress of Side Mission 1 has increased."

Su Wen was extremely surprised.

He hadn't done anything, so how could the progress of Side Mission 1 increase?

Impossible!

It was too strange. Could someone be doing good deeds in his name?

What a good person!

Su Wen carefully looked at the data.

Side Mission 1: Benevolent Recycler. Task Description: Accumulate 300 good deeds. Note: Each good deed cannot be done for a reward. Task Reward: Basic Memory Technique.

Current Progress: 189/300, 191/300, 196/300... 211/300... 221/300... 239/300...

In a blink.

301/300.

It was clearly completed!

Su Wen was completely stunned. Had he done something earth-shattering?

Strange, too strange. The progress had suddenly skyrocketed for no reason, which was unscientific!

"Xiao Tian, can you explain this to me?"

"Master, I think... I guess it's like this, it must be!"

"Like what?"

"Didn't Master donate 100,000 yuan to the earthquake-stricken area and then donate more to some mountainous areas? Now, most of that money has been used effectively, helping many people. For each person helped, it's like you did a good deed for them, so the progress of Side Mission 1 has increased dramatically."

"Is that so?"

"It should be correct, otherwise it can't be explained."

"Damn, if that's true, Xiao Tian, I want to kill you. You didn't tell me this earlier." Su Wen shouted to the sky, "If I had known completing Side Mission 1 was so easy, I wouldn't have had to help old ladies cross the road every day or help beggars. I'm so wronged!"

Xiao Tian remained silent, completely ignoring him.

After roaring for a while, Su Wen felt much better.

"What's the current progress of Side Mission 1?"

"322/300, Master has completed Side Mission 1 and received the reward, Basic Memory Technique."

"Then what are you waiting for? Give me the reward!"

"Master, the Basic Memory Technique is actually a targeted development of the brain. When you receive the reward, you might experience a brief period of unconsciousness."

"Fine, unconsciousness is fine. I was already planning to sleep."

Su Wen didn't care.

Indeed, as Xiao Tian said, he fell into a deep sleep and didn't wake up until morning.
