Antique Appraisal Livestream: My Friend, You Really Shouldn't Wear That!

After transmigrating into the owner of an antique shop, Ning Fan gets a visit from a local gang boss from the start, who storms in to wreck the place. A family heirloom saber is thrust right at his forehead, while tens of thousands watch the spectacle online. The System activates, and he gains God-Tier Appraisal: this isn't some divine weapon at all, but a saber used by eunuchs during the Ming and Qing dynasties to castrate people. The word "Mighty" engraved on it is really a badge of honor for having cut off thousands of men. The boss throws up until he's dehydrated on the spot, and the stream's popularity explodes.

He hangs up a sign promising "ten times your money back if I'm wrong." A beautiful woman brings in a "jade leaf" and asks him to identify its origin. It's Dushan jade, worth at most two cups of milk tea. A nationally renowned master checks his verdict live and confirms it on the spot.

A scar-faced man kicks down the door with a hundred thousand in cash and shows off a black bell. Ning Fan's expression changes: it's a soul-summoning bell, a magical tool used by corpse-driving practitioners in western Hunan. After three rings, the scar-faced man stares blankly and starts hopping mechanically to the sound. Tens of thousands of viewers feel chills down their spines through their screens. A jade pendant blessed at a temple in someone's home even turns red-hot against their skin.

After seeing off his two "customers," Ning Fan looks down and sees black lines crawling up along his veins. System notification: The grave-robbing curse has been activated.

Hey, buddy, you really shouldn't wear that. It could get you killed.
