After leaving the Fang clan mansion, Qin Yun did not go back to his residence directly, but went to Muyang Road first.
He used a bribe of fifty taels of silver to bribe the guards and then asked Qin Mingzhu to come out of the elixir hall.
According to the rules of the elixir hall, disciples are not allowed to go out easily at night. If they don't bribe the guards, then they can't get in even by sending a message, let alone asking someone to come.
Qin Mingzhu came out not long after.
Seeing Qin Yun, the girl who didn't know why was shy and happy at the same time.
Under the ambiguous gazes of the two guards, she pulled Qin Yun with her pretty face to hide in a corner where no one was paying attention.
"Brother Qin Yun, why do you want to see me so late?"
The girl's voice was as thin as a mosquito, and her shy and charming look made Qin Yun's heart heat up. He couldn't help but reach out and hold the other person's soft and boneless hand.
"Let's talk outside."
Pulling the girl to the secluded alley where the two often wandered, Qin Yun told the story of the two ancestors who had arranged for him to get married tonight.
After hearing this, Qin Mingzhu stopped and bit her lip, unable to hide the loss and sadness on her face. Her originally bright eyes were covered with a layer of mist.
But she didn't cry, she just lowered her head and said softly: "I know..."
Qin Yun suddenly felt that the softest part of his heart seemed to be stabbed hard, which was very painful.
He couldn't help but put the girl into his arms with both hands, and said softly: "Mingzhu, I just want to tell you that this marriage is not what I want, and I don't think I can meet Mrs. Fang's requirements, so
you..."
"I understand!"
Before Qin Yun finished speaking, his lips were blocked by Qin Mingzhu's slender jade finger.
She raised her head and stared at Qin Yun. There was no loss in her eyes as bright as the stars, but only joy: "I don't ask for anything else, as long as you have me in your heart!"
Qin Yun couldn't help but kiss her fingers. With a little force on his hands, the two of them were closer to each other.
Qin Mingzhu retracted her hand shyly, but unexpectedly Qin Yun lowered his head and kissed her lips.
"Um..."
The girl suddenly opened her eyes wide, uttered a cry and was instantly lost in Qin Yun's hot embrace.
Both of them were kissing for the first time and had no experience at all. Qin Yun, who tasted the soft and fragrant taste, sucked the intoxicating sweetness somewhat roughly. The girl's delicate body gradually changed from stiffness to softness, and began to respond greenly.
This kiss seemed to last forever, and the boy and girl completely forgot about the passage of time.
I don't know how long it took before Qin Yun slowly came back to his senses and reluctantly left those mesmerizing rose lips.
He never knew that a kiss between a man and a woman could be so beautiful and touching that it could completely make his soul lose his mind!
"You... bully me!"
Qin Mingzhu, who woke up at the same time, was so embarrassed that she raised her small fist and hit Qin Yun's chest, but she didn't have much strength.
Qin Yun chuckled, and a stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
"It's very late. I have to go back. It would be terrible if the deacon in the hall discovers me!"
"Then I'll take you back..." Qin Yun couldn't help but licked his lips, and said knowingly: "Let me kiss you again and then leave!"
"No!" Qin Mingzhu was embarrassed.
Although he was somewhat disappointed, Qin Yun did not force himself and took the girl's hand back to the elixir hall.
After this experience, the relationship between the two has undoubtedly taken a big step forward.
He was already very satisfied.
After sending Qin Mingzhu back to the elixir hall, Qin Yun returned to his residence in the manor.
What he didn't expect was that a clan deacon was waiting for him.
The deacon sent Qin Yun a letter from his ancestor.
With some surprise, Qin Yun returned to the room, opened the letter, sat at the desk and read the entire long letter.
The writing on the letter paper was written with strong strokes, and the ink on it was not yet dry, so it was obviously written not long ago.
In the letter, the ancestor told Qin Yun that when Qin Yun saw this letter, he had officially closed the door on life and death, and whether he could come out alive depended on his fate.
The ancestor said that he already knew that Mrs. Fang had agreed to Qin Yun's marriage. He was happy for Qin Yun, and this was the last thing he could do for Qin Yun.
The ancestor also told Qin Yun that the reason why he did this was because the girl named Fang Ruobing had a rare mysterious body, which was most suitable for dual cultivation with a man who practiced Jiuyang Xuan Gong.
There are very few people who know this secret. The ancestor has an old friendship with Mrs. Fang, and this time she sacrificed her last favor to ask for Qin Yun's hand in marriage.
As long as Qin Yun advances to the innate realm, he can then use the opponent's mysterious yin energy to reconcile yin and yang. Not only can he practice the Nine Yang Xuan Gong to the highest level, but he can also greatly shorten the time required to break through to the Huagang realm!
The benefits are difficult to describe in words.
However, the ancestor also warned Qin Yun that although Yin and Yang dual cultivation also belongs to the righteous path of Xuanmen, the real strong ones are always tempered through many tests, rather than relying on shortcuts.
The road is long and far away, the only way is to search up and down!
Only by finding his own path can Qin Yun understand the true meaning of martial arts and swordsmanship.
After reading this long letter, he finally understood his ancestor's good intentions for his own benefit.
While being moved, Qin Yun felt a little uneasy because he could vaguely smell an ominous breath between the lines.
That night, Qin Yun thought a lot and did not sleep well until the gauze lamp on the desk ran out of oil.
This boy, who is only sixteen years old, has matured at a speed that is unimaginable to others.
…
Time passed by silently, and in the blink of an eye, all the new promotion examinations of the Qin clan were over.
A group of children have been ruthlessly demoted. In the next six months, their family rations will be cut by more than half, and their status will no longer be the same. Life in Muyangdao will undoubtedly become difficult.
If they perform poorly in the Tao Hall Competition held in Muyang Dao in September this year, they will be sent back to their place of origin to make room for the next batch of newcomers!
The family does not raise useless people!
The cruel reality made all the newcomers truly understand the family law of survival of the fittest, and they all woke up from their initial confusion.
Except for a few children who completely gave up on themselves, the others became more and more diligent and hardworking, and no one wanted to go back to their hometown in despair.
As a member of the new generation, Qin Yun undoubtedly received too much attention.
Starting from killing Guo Shanfeng's general Qinglang and becoming a disciple of the Foreign Affairs Inner Hall, he defeated the execution hall Qin Jun with a sword during the new promotion examination, and was favored by his ancestor and given the secret book of Xuan Gong!
Immediately afterwards, she made a splash at the birthday banquet of Mrs. Fang of the Fang family. Mrs. Fang personally promised to marry and betrothed to a stunning beauty...
With such a series of good things, how can we not make people envious, how can we not make people jealous!
Qin Yun's name is known to everyone in Muyang Tao!
It is precisely because of this that Qin Yun became increasingly low-key after the new assessment.
Since he was promoted to a disciple of the inner hall, he didn't have to go to work every day. He only had to go to pick up the assigned tasks on time.
The types of tasks and the degree of freedom of choice available to the disciples in the inner hall are also much higher. Qin Yun can choose the ones that suit him.
He spent most of his time on the study of Nine Yang Xuan Gong.
This volume of Jiuyang Xuan Gong written by the ancestor of the Qin family contains nearly 5,000 characters, plus over 10,000 words in the margins. It contains the general outline and the key points of the first three levels of the technique.
If it's just that there are too many characters, that's fine. The problem is that many of the ancient characters are complex and profound. It's difficult to even identify them without explaining their meanings.
In desperation, he had no choice but to turn to Aunt Sun, who was guarding the library.
At the suggestion of Grandma Sun, she went to the library of the main hall and exchanged thirty meritorious deeds for a book of ancient Chinese characters. She compared and studied the secret books one by one, carefully understood the meaning of each word, and finally devoured the entire volume of Nine Yang Xuan Gong. Come down.
For this reason, Qin Yun spent ten days to memorize the entire secret book in his heart.
After re-typing it several times to confirm that it was correct, he burned all the manuscripts according to his ancestor's wishes, including the original secret book of inestimable value.
Although he was very reluctant to part with it, Qin Yun knew that keeping this Xuan Gong secret book with him was too coveted. If it was accidentally stolen, he would be really ashamed of his ancestors.
The ancestor undoubtedly thought of this, so he asked Qin Yun to memorize it and then destroy it.
However, even if he memorized it backwards and forwards, Qin Yun could only memorize it by rote like he was swallowing dates. It does not mean that he has mastered the Nine Yang Xuan Gong.
In fact, this set of exercises and formulas is very profound and difficult to understand. Even though there are marginal notes added by the ancestor, Qin Yun still has to think over and over again before he can understand the meaning of a formula, and it must be completely accurate.
Qin Yun thought about asking the martial arts instructor in the hall for advice, but the instructor was unable to do anything. He told him that at least an elder-level innate expert who practiced the same technique was qualified to give advice.
There are only a handful of such masters in the Qin family, and the amount of family merit that would be expended for a single point of reference is simply beyond what Qin Yun can afford.
To put it bluntly, even if Qin Yun had enough meritorious service, the innate-level clan elders were not something he, a collateral descendant, could meet.
If it were anyone else, I'm afraid they would have to give up the idea of cultivation temporarily and find ways to accumulate merit.
You must know that it is very easy to go crazy when practicing Kung Fu forcefully, and one word difference may lead to a huge error. The ordinary Kung Fu techniques are fine, but advanced Kung Fu techniques cannot be practiced by oneself by relying on a secret book.
If you practice a top-notch skill like Jiuyang Xuan Gong and cannot forcefully transport your true energy, your meridians may be severed and your whole body may be paralyzed, or your body may be burned by internal fire and you may die on the spot!
Therefore, the ancestor specifically stated at the end of the general outline that you should not practice blindly without any confidence or guidance. Everyone's situation is different, and you cannot rely solely on your understanding of the marginalia.
But Qin Yun is not an ordinary person, he has resources that others do not have.
The Heaven-Mending Stone of Heaven and Earth, the great magical power of the Secret Realm of Heaven and Earth!
