"Hey, I have the same idea. I wonder if my uncle can take me with him?" Qin Xingbao was overjoyed when he heard this, and then said with a hint of shyness on his face.
Qin Ziling looked at Qin Xingbao and couldn't help but smile.
This guy looked like a bearded man with a rugged look, but he actually knew what he was doing. After all he had said so much, he was just waiting for his words.
"Aren't you afraid that I will take you to the pit?" Qin Ziling asked deliberately.
"Hehe, my uncle is young and has practiced from scratch to the late stage of bone refining. He must have his own way of doing things. How can he lead me into a pit? Besides, if you want to seek opportunities and benefits, how can you not take risks? !" Qin Xingbao replied.
"Haha!" Qin Ziling couldn't help laughing when he saw that Qin Xingbao seemed to be a fool, but he was like a bright light in his heart, and said: "Okay, since you are not afraid that I will take you to the pit, wait until this ancestor worship ceremony After that, we’ll find something to do together.”
"Thank you, Uncle Clan. But the two of us are still a bit weak, so we'd better make an appointment with some more people then." Qin Xingbao said.
Qin Ziling was slightly startled, but thinking that it was his first time to go out, with more people, he would be able to learn more, so he nodded and said: "That's okay, we'll see when the time comes."
While the two were talking, "The entourage of the head of the mighty courtyard came forward on a blood cloud horse and said to Qin Ziling: "Master Ling, the head of the courtyard invites you to come over. . "
"Okay." Qin Ziling nodded, shook the reins, and rode the clouded leopard horse to follow the entourage of the head of the courtyard to a luxurious carriage.
"Come up and talk." The car curtain rolled open, revealing Qin Zitang's thin, cold face with no expression.
"Yes, head of the courtyard." Qin Ziling slightly arched his hands, then handed the reins to the entourage, and boarded the carriage himself.
Qin Ziling boarded the carriage, saluted Qin Zitang, and sat down opposite her.
After Qin Ziling sat down, a waitress accompanying the car handed Qin Ziling a box.
"This contains your monthly report for this month. Two 'Liuhe Bone Transforming Pills' and a secret bone refining medicine made from the flesh and blood of the strange beast. The strange beast is a fourth-grade mid-level alien beast, and its flesh and blood are the most powerful. It is suitable for bone refining by great martial artists who practice the Cold Iron Kung Fu." Qin Zitang said lightly.
Qin Ziling was slightly startled, with a look of surprise on his face.
He had forgotten that a month had passed and he could get his monthly routine again. At the same time, he was also surprised that Qin Zitang, the cold head of the hospital, would go out of his way to give it to him.
"This kind of monthly payment can only be received by key disciples for one year. After one year, if there is no big progress, you have to rely on merit points to redeem it. If there is big progress, the family will continue to provide it for another year, and then you have to rely on yourself. Earn, unless you successfully break through and become a martial arts master, then there will be another clan elder salary." Qin Zitang saw that Qin Ziling's expression was a little subtle, and he obviously misunderstood what he meant.
"Thank you, Chief." Naturally, Qin Ziling would not point out that his subtle expression was because he had forgotten about this incident and the surprise of her actions, so he quickly thanked her.
"I heard that you have been staying in the Sutra Pavilion recently, reading books. Have you encountered any confusion in your practice?" Qin Zitang waved his hand and asked with a calm expression.
A look of surprise flashed across Qin Ziling's eyes when he heard this, but he quickly said: "Thank you for your concern, Head of the Academy. I don't have any confusion about my practice at the moment."
"In that case, go ahead." Qin Zitang couldn't see any change in his expression after hearing this, but said in a cold tone.
"Yes!" Qin Ziling cupped his hands slightly, then stood up and got out of the carriage.
After getting off the carriage, he got back on his clouded leopard horse and watched the carriage leave. Qin Ziling's eyes were a little subtle.
"Uncle, the key disciples are different! Unlike our 'Yingwu Academy' which has many disciples, the head of the academy doesn't have much free time to care about us." Qin Xingbao rode forward and said to Qin Ziling with an envious look on his face.
A few days ago, he failed to win the spot for a key disciple, and ended up being a first-class disciple. However, because he had a big breakthrough this time, he could receive the monthly payment for another year.
"Tell me about the Head of the Mighty Academy.
Qin Ziling said.
Qin Xingbao couldn't help but open his mouth slightly when he heard this, and after a while he smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle, you are a disciple of the 'Weiwu Academy'.
Why are you asking me in turn? "
"Nonsense, it's not like you don't know that it was my first time to come to the Qin Family in Wuzhou, and I didn't know anything about the Qin Family before. After I came here, I stayed in the Sutra Pavilion every day, so how did I know about the head of the courtyard? On the contrary You must have been interacting with other tribesmen these days, so you should know something about the head of our courtyard,” Qin Ziling said.
"Well, I don't know the specifics. I only know a few bits and pieces of information. It is said that the strength of the head of the Weiwu Academy is at an upper-middle level among many elders of the clan. He seems to practice the 'Qinglong Xuanmu Kung', and he is good at dealing with people. Things are very cold, and many clan members are a little afraid of her.
As for why she stayed in the clan and never married outside, I don't know. " Qin Xingbao said.
Qin Ziling glanced at Qin Xingbao speechlessly, as if he had said it but not said it.
With his eyesight, couldn't he tell that Qin Zitang practiced "Qinglong Xuanmu Kung" and that she was cold-hearted? Qin Xingbao still needed to tell her?
At the beginning of Shenshi, Qin Ziling saw a majestic and towering mountain range stretching for hundreds of miles from a distance, like a giant dragon lying prone on the earth.
The first peak is thousands of feet high, rising from the ground like a dragon's head rising straight into the sky.
The city of Qin was built on this mountain. The city wall was more than twenty feet high, covering an extremely large area. It rose from the ground and overlooked the vast plain at the foot of the mountain.
The tall city walls are all made of huge granite piles. They stretch for dozens of miles in a semicircle, surrounding the entire city in front of the mountain. Within the city, the roads crisscrossed each other and were spacious enough to accommodate more than ten horses riding side by side. On both sides of the road,
The houses are lined up one after another.
There is a simple, magnificent and solemn ancestral temple built in the innermost part of the city, on the flattened hilltop, like a king looking down at the world.
Outside the city are vast stretches of fertile land, home to many market towns and villages.
"Uncle Clan, that is Qin City, and that mountain is called Qianlong Mountain. It is said that our ancestors of the Qin family have the blood of the Dragon Clan. There used to be giant dragons living here. There are even rumors that Qianlong Mountain was the body of the dragon after its death. "Qin Xingbao pointed to the mountains and city in the distance and said with pride on his face.
"Really?" Qin Ziling asked subconsciously, but gently pressed his chest with his hand.
There are patterns there.
Qin Ziling still clearly remembers that when he was covered in iron and broke the limit, there seemed to be shackles and seals in his body being opened, and then he saw a body of muscles wrapped like a giant dragon, an extremely tall and majestic giant standing on the earth.
The earth is desolate and desolate, the sky is covered with dark clouds, and there is lightning and thunder.
This giant seemed to hold up the entire world!
Perhaps, his body really does have a trace of the blood of ancient great men and dragons.
"It's just a rumor, who knows!" Qin Xingbao was stunned for a moment, then replied.
Qin Ziling smiled when he heard this.
While talking, the two followed the team into Qin City.
In this Qin family's ancestor worship ceremony, not only the Qin family from Wuzhou, but also others who became masters, moved out of the sect, found a place outside to establish their roots, and gradually developed into a branch of a powerful force. Now the Qin family in Wuzhou is The Qincheng Ancestral Temple held an ancestor worship ceremony, and they all brought people to participate in the worship ceremony.
In addition to the Qin clan members participating in the ancestor worship ceremony, there are also some people with foreign surnames who will come to watch the ceremony.
Therefore, the city is very lively today, with flags and signs everywhere.
But what Qin Ziling focused on was not that, but the many powerful auras he sensed in the Qin family's ancestral land.
These powerful auras filled the air throughout Qincheng, and even though Qin Ziling relied on his advanced cultivation, he still felt a little numb.
"No wonder the Qin family in Wuzhou can be passed down from generation to generation and remain standing despite the changes of dynasties. This heritage is really powerful!" Qin Ziling secretly sighed in his heart, and suddenly seemed to feel something in his heart, looking towards the back hill where the ancestral temple is located.
There was an aura over there that Qin Ziling couldn't explain, which was kind but frightening.
This aura is vague and very weak. If it weren't for his powerful soul, he would definitely not be able to sense it.
"I wonder what is hidden behind the ancestral temple?" Qin Ziling thought to himself, but had no intention of exploring it.
After all, that is where the Qin family's ancestral temple is located. Qin Ziling still has the blood of the Qin family and the soul of the Qin family. Moreover, since he came to the Qin family in Wuzhou, the Qin family has treated him well.
On the second day, the ancestor worship ceremony officially began.
Looking up at the ancestral temple in the city, I feel that it is very simple, magnificent and solemn.
After climbing the 999 steps, I stood in front of the ancestral temple and looked at the extremely wide square. Flags were flying on both sides. People stood in awe. The ancestral temple towered into the clouds. There was a giant tripod in front of it. Inside the ancestral temple, there were many Even though Qin Ziling was an orphan in his previous life and had never participated in any ancestor worship scenes, in such a scene and atmosphere, his whole person could not help but become solemn.
The entire process of the ancestor worship ceremony includes many ritual rules such as "burning incense", "offering tribute", "offering wine", "reading blessings", "offering sacrifices" and so on. It is grand and solemn, starting in the morning and not ending until Shen Zheng.
After the ancestor worship is over, there is a banquet.
The banquet was placed from the square in front of the ancestral temple to the broad avenue under the stairs. I don't know how many tables were placed.
As a key disciple of the Qin family, Qin Ziling's seat is relatively high.
He saw that sitting on the top seat were his great-uncle Qin Longyuan and clan leader Qin Zaixin whom he had seen on the first day he came, as well as his great-uncle who was sitting on the fifth floor of the Sutra Pavilion, and some older clan elders. Qin Xingjun, the genius of the Qin family, was also present.
But what Qin Ziling really paid attention to was a middle-aged Taoist nun sitting next to the clan leader, accompanied by Qin Longyuan.
The Taoist nun couldn't tell her specific age, but Qin Ziling's sharp senses could vaguely sense the vicissitudes of years of experience in her body. This was not the aura that a middle-aged woman should have.
Moreover, the Taoist nun's aura gave Qin Ziling an unfathomable feeling. He just paid her a little attention and she seemed to notice it. Qin Ziling immediately tried his best to restrain his aura.
"Auntie, I saw that uncle Ming's lineage has descendants who have continued it, and they were also found this time. It's just that uncle Ming's lineage is not prosperous, and it has only been passed down for five generations. Fortunately, his descendants are quite impressive, and they are only two years old. At the age of sixteen, you are already in the advanced stage of bone refining." Qin Longyuan whispered to the middle-aged Taoist nun beside him when he came to the table.
"Oh, it's rare to see that there is an outstanding person from Ming Ming's lineage." The middle-aged Taoist nun said with a calm expression, and there were not many fluctuations.
