Suddenly discovering his Rebirth, Lu Qing realized he might be in a world with extraordinary powers.
Lu Qing's heart was filled with both joy and alarm.
The joy stemmed from his inherent Chinese aspiration for a life of chivalry, upholding justice, and wandering the world with a sword.
The alarm, however, came from the realization that a world capable of concentrating immense power into individuals, giving rise to powerful beings, would also be far more dangerous than an ordinary world.
As the saying goes, 'chivalry can lead to defying prohibitions'; once people wield great power, they easily disregard rules.
The anger of the strong leading to the regret of the weak was likely a common occurrence.
And he, at present, was a weakling, utterly defenseless.
If he were to accidentally encounter an evil person who knew how to Cultivate, he feared he could be easily eliminated.
Thinking of these things, a sense of crisis involuntarily arose in Lu Qing's heart.
Some of his original plans needed to be changed.
Lu Qing fell into deep thought again, pondering slowly in his mind.
Early the next morning, Lu Qing cooked a pot of river shrimp porridge, then woke Xiao Yan, and the siblings ate the porridge together.
"Brother, the shrimp porridge is so delicious!"
The little one slurped noisily, looked up, a grain of porridge still on her face, and happily said to Lu Qing.
"Good, good, drink slowly, don't choke."
Lu Qing reached out and helped her remove the grain of porridge from her mouth.
"Brother, are we going fishing again today?" Xiao Yan asked.
"No fishing today. After we finish eating, we'll go to Grandpa Chen's place."
Now that their immediate food needs were resolved, Lu Qing didn't plan to go fishing for the next two days.
Furthermore, he had caught quite a few fish from the small fishing spot yesterday, and it would likely take some time for the fish population to recover.
As for the other two fishing spots, his simple fishing rod probably couldn't handle them.
Until he could make a better fishing rod, Lu Qing didn't intend to fish at those two spots.
There was no other way; their family was too poor, and every bit of resource was precious, leaving no room for him to waste it casually.
"We're going to Grandpa Chen's?" Xiao Yan's eyes lit up.
The little one had been sleeping all day yesterday and didn't know that Dr. Chen and Zhang Daye had visited.
"Yes, do you want to go?" Lu Qing asked.
Generally, children naturally feared doctors, and Lu Qing wasn't sure if Xiao Yan would feel the same way.
"Yes~" The little one said earnestly, "Grandpa Chen is so kind. He cured Brother's illness, and Xiao Yan hasn't thanked him yet."
Lu Qing smiled: "Right, let's go thank Grandpa Chen together."
After finishing the porridge, Lu Qing locked the door and took Xiao Yan out.
Dr. Chen didn't live in the village but on the mountainside of a small hill behind the village.
Lu Qing walked with Xiao Yan on the road, and from a distance, he saw an independent small courtyard vaguely appearing on the mountainside, looking quite like a beautiful Concept.
Upon reaching the mountainside, Lu Qing saw a figure moving in front of the courtyard. He was about to speak but suddenly closed his mouth.
At the same time, he pulled Xiao Yan and made a shushing gesture to her.
Because he saw that Dr. Chen, at that moment, seemed not to be suitable for disturbance.
Dr. Chen was practicing a Move.
Lu Qing didn't recognize the Move. In his opinion, it looked somewhat like the Tai Chi practiced by old men in parks in his previous life.
The Moves were slow and gentle.
But after a few glances, Lu Qing noticed a difference.
Dr. Chen's Moves looked soft, but in reality, each Move seemed to carry a strong wind, flowing smoothly and beautifully.
Just as Lu Qing was getting somewhat engrossed, a line of text suddenly popped up in his vision.
“Cultivation Technique detected. Do you want to simulate it?”
Hmm?
Lu Qing's pupils suddenly contracted.
His ability actually had such a function?!
Looking at Dr. Chen, who was still deeply immersed in his practice, Lu Qing forcibly calmed his rapidly beating heart and silently chose yes in his mind.
“Simulation initiated. Current progress: 1%, 2%, 3%…”
Watching the progress bar silently jumping in his vision, Lu Qing's heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate again.
He hadn't expected that his ability actually had the function of simulating others' Cultivation Techniques.
Just yesterday, he was still troubled by not being able to access the Cultivation methods of this world.
This was truly like getting a pillow when one was sleepy.
Lu Qing stared intently at Dr. Chen's movements, while also paying attention to the Cultivation Technique's simulation progress.
“48%, 49%, 50%”
When the Cultivation Technique simulation reached fifty percent, Lu Qing found that it stopped, and the text disappeared.
Looking opposite, it turned out that Dr. Chen had already finished his practice.
Lu Qing secretly thought it a pity.
If he had come a little earlier, perhaps he could have simulated Dr. Chen's entire set of Moves one hundred percent.
Being stuck at half the progress made him quite uncomfortable.
However, Lu Qing only regretted it for a moment before adjusting his mindset.
Coming here this time and discovering another function of his ability was already a significant gain.
As for Dr. Chen's Cultivation Technique, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future, so there was no need to rush.
After Dr. Chen finished his set of Moves and completed his practice, he looked at Lu Qing and Xiao Yan.
In reality, he had known Lu Qing and Xiao Yan were there for a while.
It was just that his morning practice was a habit, so he didn't stop.
"You're here. Have you had breakfast yet?" Dr. Chen asked gently.
"Yes, we have," Lu Qing respectfully replied.
Xiao Yan stepped forward and took the Old Doctor's hand: "Grandpa Chen, thank you for curing Brother's illness."
"Haha, little one, you should be thanking yourself. If you hadn't cried so much that day, I wouldn't have gone into the house to investigate."
The Old Doctor stroked Xiao Yan's head, feeling a bit emotional.
That day, he was strolling in the village and happened to hear Xiao Yan's crying. Unable to bear it, he went into the house to check the situation, only then discovering how seriously ill Lu Qing was.
"Why should I thank Xiao Yan? Grandpa Chen cured Brother's illness," the little one asked, somewhat puzzled.
"That wasn't entirely my credit. Your brother's recovery was also due to his good fortune," the Old Doctor sighed.
Yesterday, after returning home, he checked some medical books again, but still couldn't find any record of Lu Qing's illness.
In the end, he could only attribute it to Lu Qing's good luck and good fortune.
Xiao Yan didn't understand the Old Doctor's words and could only nod in confusion.
Only then did Lu Qing realize that there was such a reason behind Dr. Chen treating his illness.
He looked at Xiao Yan with doting eyes and bowed deeply to the Old Doctor again: "Thank you, Grandpa Chen, for saving my life."
"You… sigh, never mind, never mind."
Dr. Chen finally waved his hand, no longer explaining.
Because he knew that even if he explained further, Lu Qing and Xiao Yan would still believe that he had cured the illness.
Since that was the case, why bother explaining more.
"Grandpa Chen, what were you doing just now? Were you practicing a Move?" At this moment, Xiao Yan innocently asked.
Lu Qing also looked at the Old Doctor.
