"The man riding the silver dragon horse just now is of the same generation as me. His name is Qin Xingjun, but he is the youngest martial arts master and clan elder of our Qin family. So don't talk about me. Even those who are senior to him must address him respectfully. The clan elder cannot call him by his first name, let alone treat him as a junior." Qin Xingbao watched a horse and a man enter the city gate, and said to Qin Ziling in a low voice.
"How old is he this year?" Qin Ziling asked.
"He became a martial arts master two years ago. It is said that he was twenty-three years old that year, so he should be twenty-five years old now!" Qin Xingbao replied.
"Becoming a martial arts master at the age of twenty-three, tsk tsk, that's awesome!" Qin Ziling admired sincerely.
"Yes, if nothing unexpected happens, the middle master is definitely fine, but it's hard to say for the great master. There have been many martial arts masters younger than him in the history of Wuzhou, but they either died halfway or were stuck in the heart. This level. If you can really become a Grandmaster, that would be incredible!" Qin Xingbao said...
"Haha, the middle grandmaster and the grand master are far away from us. Let's go to the Qin Mansion first." Qin Ziling said with a smile.
"Hehe, yes, yes." Qin Xingbao smiled, and then followed Qin Ziling on horseback onto the suspension bridge.
Qin Ziling carried the identity letter issued to him by Qin Tianchou, and he handed the identity letter to the guard.
After reading the identity letter, the guard did not dare to neglect, and immediately politely led Qin Ziling to the waiting hall, and then ordered someone to report it quickly.
Soon, an old man who looked like a steward came in a carriage to greet Qin Ziling.
"Uncle Clan, I'll leave first. I live in the Yingwu Courtyard. After you have made arrangements, you must remember to come to me." Seeing the steward coming to greet Qin Ziling, Qin Xingbao said to Qin Ziling.
Once the children of other tribes are rated as B-level, the Wuzhou Qin family will prepare a house for them in the Qin Mansion as a residence for them to practice life in Wuzhou.
The courtyards composed of these houses were named "Kongwu Courtyard", "Yingwu Courtyard" and "Weiwu Courtyard" respectively.
The three major courtyards correspond to the second-class, first-class and key disciples. As for the core disciples, they usually have an independently named mansion directly.
Qin Xingbao broke through and became a great bone refining martial artist at the age of twenty-nine. He was rated as a first-class disciple by the Qin family in Wuzhou, so he had his own house in the Qin family.
"I will go find you." Qin Ziling smiled and nodded.
Qin Ziling quite liked this talkative and chivalrous nephew.
Qin Ziling rode a clouded leopard horse and drove along a straight and spacious road with the carriage until they arrived at a large house covering an area of 100 acres.
Qin Ziling got off his horse and followed the steward through the winding corridors and gardens before arriving at a courtyard with a quiet environment and full of greenery.
"Wait a moment, I will go in and report." When they arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, the steward bowed and said.
"No need to report, come in." A majestic voice came from the yard.
So the steward took Qin Ziling in.
The purpose of entering is to lay out a quiet garden courtyard.
In the middle of the courtyard, under a big tree, a gray-haired old man was lying on a wicker chair, while a young woman gently rocked the chair for him.
Sitting next to the gray-haired old man was a man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties.
Sitting there casually, this man gave off the impression of a Yuan Ting Yue Zhi, and the energy and blood in his body was as surging as the sea, unfathomable.
As soon as Qin Ziling walked in, the man raised his head and looked at Qin Ziling.
Two sharp gazes shot out, like lightning and swords, as if they could penetrate people's souls and see them clearly from the outside to the inside.
At the same time, there was a majestic momentum pressing towards Qin Ziling like a mountain or a sea.
"Junior Qin Ziling has met great uncle and the head of the family." Qin Ziling bowed to the end and seemed not to be affected.
Before arriving at the courtyard, the steward had already told Qin Ziling that the identities of the two people in the courtyard were Qin Zaixin, the current head of the family, and Qin Longyuan, the father of the family.
"Be calm in the face of the strong,
There is no fear or panic at all, which shows that you must be a resolute and calm person. This cannot be achieved by eating the flesh and blood of exotic animals or elixirs.
Yes, it seems that your reaching the late stage of bone refining at the age of twenty-six is definitely not a fluke or a mere chance. It has a lot to do with your own innate character. "The man with a majestic demeanor and surging energy put away his momentum and nodded with approval.
"I don't dare to praise you as the head of the family." Qin Ziling said again.
This majestic man is Qin Zaixin, the current head of the Qin family, two generations senior to Qin Ziling.
"Child, come here and let me take a good look." At this time, the white-haired old man lying on the wicker chair slowly sat up, waved to Qin Ziling, and said.
"Yes." Qin Ziling replied respectfully, and then quickly approached the white-haired old man, who was Qin Longyuan.
Qin Longyuan was said to be at the level of a martial arts master, but because of his old age, his energy and blood had declined severely, his face was full of wrinkles, and his eyes were a little cloudy.
After Qin Ziling approached, Qin Longyuan stared at Qin Ziling's face for a long time, and then said with emotion: "Your face shape is really similar to your great-great-grandfather. He was as handsome as you at that time. Speaking of which, this difference is eighty Eight years. When people get older, it is easy to think of people and things in their youth.
I still remember that when I was a child, I liked to follow your great-great-grandfather. He is a generation above me, but only five years older. At that time, my great-great-grandfather and I were weak and often bullied by several brothers. It was your great-great-grandfather who stepped in to help me fight against injustice.
It's a pity that he has no cultivation talent and his nature is relatively strong. At that time, our lineage was just a collateral branch and his status in the Qin family was average. He had no cultivation talent. Naturally, the family could not spend efforts to cultivate him, so he chose to leave. Going to Xiyunzhou, I want to carve out a world on my own there.
Unexpectedly, this trip will separate the yin and yang of life and death. However, I am going to join him soon. God is still open-minded and allowed me to see you before I left. When I got underground, I happened to give your great-great-grandfather the good news, telling him that one of his descendants had an outstanding descendant. "
"Father, this is fine. Why are you saying these unlucky words?" Qin Zaixin said quickly.
"Yes, yes, great-uncle has a rosy face and surging energy and blood. He will definitely live a long life...a thousand years old." Qin Ziling echoed.
But when I talked about longevity, I suddenly thought that this great-granduncle was only five years older than my great-great-grandfather, and should be over a hundred years old now, so I quickly changed my mind.
"Haha, you kid, you have to pick out all the nice things to say in the book. Unless we, the martial arts practitioners, can successfully refine our marrow, turn nature into nature, and extend our lifespan by a hundred years, even if we become a great master, we will live to be one hundred and fifty-six years old." He was as strong as the sky at the age of ten. Great uncle is already one hundred and two years old this year. Even though his body still looks very strong and he still has some strength left, he doesn't have a few years left in his life." Qin Longyuan said with an open-minded smile. .
Then, Qin Longyuan took Qin Ziling to reminisce and chat about some past events between him and Qin Ziling's great-grandfather.
Then, Qin Longyuan seemed a little tired and ordered his servants to take Qin Ziling down.
"I like this kid Ziling better. Can you see if you can arrange a core disciple status for him?" Qin Longyuan said to Qin Zaixin after Qin Ziling went down.
"I am in the late stage of bone refining at the age of twenty-six. This talent is indeed relatively high. But you also know that in order to cultivate Xingjun and several other descendants of our lineage, a lot of high-quality resources have been spent over the years. Several other branches have already had their opinions." Qin Zaixin frowned.
"After all, they are still not willing to let you sit in this position. However, your cultivation as a master is indeed not enough to convince everyone. If your aunt hadn't supported you wholeheartedly, you wouldn't have been able to sit in the position of the head of the family twenty years ago. But after all, your aunt is an external force. If our lineage wants to secure its position as the head of the family, we still have to rely on ourselves.
Moreover, your great-aunt has been stagnant in the realm of Grand Master for a long time, and it is estimated that she will try to induce thunder to temper her body in the next few years. If she succeeds, everything will be fine. If she fails, our Qin family will probably face internal and external troubles, so Xingjun and them, no matter how opposed by those branches, you have to increase your efforts to cultivate them. As for Zi Ling, try your best to see him. "Qin Longyuan said.
