Chapter 20 The Zhong family proposes marriage (Part 1)
Under the influence of Zhong Lingxi and other beauties, the enthusiasm of the male disciples of Qingyun Sect for practicing martial arts has obviously increased much more than in previous years, which makes Ou Ye Changfeng feel a little gratified. Of course, if there were not several private fights that occurred every now and then,
, thus causing an injury accident, that would be even more perfect.
"Huh! These brats don't know where the world is, and they spend their days fighting for women!" The leader Ou Ye Changfeng was very helpless. He originally left the girls in the Qingyun Sect mainly for the convenience of management. After all, at that time
Zhong Lingxi, Li Xintian, and Fifth Xiaoxiao are not very old. They are in the same sect and can take care of each other, but it is unbelievable that the three of them will become more and more beautiful as they grow older.
Especially Zhong Lingxi, a 20-year-old girl, naturally attracted the attention of the disciples in the sect, and was even vaguely rated as "one of the three beauties of Luo Yun Kingdom" by some of the disciples in the Jianghu! However, it made the Qingyun Sect, who had been silent in the Jianghu for many years,
, has once again become the focus of criticism in the world. Although the development of a sect does require reputation and influence in the world, Ouye Changfeng knows that the real influence comes from deep foundation and strength, not from the women within the sect.
The beauty of my disciple!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but frowned. As the head of the Qingyun Sect, he knew that the world was dangerous. Sometimes women were too beautiful, and without corresponding strength to support them, it was not a good thing!
“Junior brother, Lingxi is getting older, it’s time to plan a good home for her!”
When Ou Yezi heard what his senior brother said, he raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "She is still young. This matter is not urgent, right?"
"For other women, there is indeed no rush, but for her, getting married as soon as possible is not a bad thing." He looked at his junior brother with a deep look. He knew Ou Yezi's temper. Among the three saints in Yunxiao,
, In terms of martial arts, he is on par with Chen Chuantuo, but in terms of temperament and ability to protect the calf, Ou Yezi is undoubtedly the most powerful.
Although he never talked about this female apprentice for a long time, he actually loved her as the apple of his eye. Although he had never openly rejected anyone's marriage to Zhong Lingxi, he was more interested in her than anyone else in private.
.
"Humph, senior brother, I tell you not to worry about my apprentice! Take care of your good apprentice Li Xintian. I think this little girl will be able to live a good life in a few years! What? You don't
Find one for her?" Ou Yezi said coldly.
Speaking of Li Xintian, Ouye Changfeng's expression obviously softened a lot. The girl had been learning the exercises from him since she was nine years old. Over the years, he found that Li Xintian's talent was extremely powerful, and what was even more rare was that she was born with a pure mind.
This also makes it difficult for Li Xintian to have mental bottlenecks and be troubled by inner demons on the path of spiritual practice.
Of course, this does not mean that inner demons will never arise, but that it is extremely difficult to generate inner demons. Correspondingly, if inner demons arise, it will also be extremely difficult to eliminate them.
In the past five years, Li Xintian's inner strength has steadily improved from the beginning of the Mang Realm. In fact, according to her qualifications, she could have entered the Xiaxia Realm two years ago. You know, if she can enter the Xiaxia Realm before she is thirteen years old,
After entering the realm of chivalrous people, she will become a genius comparable to Helian Haixin.
But Ouye Changfeng did not waste the girl's talent prematurely, but focused on solidifying her foundation. Since two years ago, Li Xintian has changed his daily training program, no longer focusing on improving internal energy, but more on
It’s about the improvement of state of mind and martial arts.
As for the direction of her practice in the past few years, it is naturally the most powerful swordsmanship of the Qingyun Sect. After all, it was once the sword sect branch of the Yunxiao Sect, and its foundation is far beyond that of ordinary second-rate sects. Even some first-rate sects in the world are far behind it.
.Besides, Li Xintian has practiced with Li Chengqian and Li Chengtao since he was a child, so he naturally has some understanding of the art of swordsmanship.
And after more than five years of training, the girl has also seen some clues. The Sword Sect is actually divided into many schools. Some focus on the practice of swordsmanship, some focus on the study of sword moves, and some focus on internal skills.
The direction of Jin Yujian.
For example, Ou Yezi's sword practice focuses on the sword's intention, and the emphasis is on the sword wielder's understanding of the sword's intention. Even in the most advanced realms, every plant and tree in his hands can exert extraordinary combat power.
Another example is Ou Ye Changfeng, as the leader of the Qingyun Sect, his sword intention, sword moves, sword control skills, etc. are extremely powerful, but when it comes to his first practice, it is concentration and sword moves.
He practiced swordsmanship at a young age and has read all the swordsmanship in the world. He can be regarded as the master of swordsmanship in the world. Unfortunately, the swordsmanship school has a level gap with other schools in the same sect in the early stage. Others are already at the level of a chivalrous person, but he is still a half-step swordsman.
Therefore, Ou Ye Changfeng in his youth could only be the first disciple of the Sword Sect (the oldest one, or the earliest to start), not the first person of the Sword Sect (the strongest one).
Later, Ou Ye Changfeng continued to learn from others' strengths and steadily improved his cultivation step by step, and then slowly caught up with the cultivation levels of other brothers in the sect. Since then, Ou Ye Changfeng, who has rich experience in sword moves, has made rapid progress in strength.
, an existence that can be said to be invincible at the same level, and slowly became the number one person in the Sword Sect.
Until Yunxiao Sect split into Qingyun Sect and Xiaoyuan Academy, Ou Ye Changfeng at that time was already on par with Chen Chuantuo, the first Qi Sect at that time, or just slightly inferior. But now, many years later, the two of them have
It's hard to say who has a higher level.
…
While Ou Ye Changfeng and Ou Yezi were bickering with each other in the Qingyun Palace, an inner disciple walked in. He first saluted the leader, then solemnly raised his hands to Ou Yezi and said: "Palm
Door, the Zhong family is here again!"
Hearing this, Ou Yezi snorted: "This Zhong Rui has a dog-skinned personality!" Obviously, he was very tired of this brat who pestered his precious apprentice all day long.
When the young male disciple who just came to report saw his elder saying this, he immediately raised his hands and said, "Great Elder, do you need me to send them away?"
It's not that he is so enthusiastic, but mainly because as a member of the Qingyun Sect, anyone who has ideas for his Junior Sister Zhong is a potential target.
The jealousy among the brothers within the sect is an internal conflict. If a wild boy from outside were to abduct Junior Sister Zhong, wouldn’t it be a great shame and humiliation for them? If this spread to the world,
What do your peers from other sects think?
“I heard that the great beauty Zhong Lingxi of the Qingyun Sect was married by that so-and-so!”
“What! Married to someone from another sect? What do the male disciples of the Qingyun Sect do for a living? They can’t even look down on a junior sister! Are they all pretty ugly?”
“No, no, it’s not ugly either. Maybe it’s because the skills are not good enough and the internal energy is not as strong as Qi Bong. Zheng Tianguang is just playing swordsmanship!”
…”
Think about these conversations, spread throughout the world, how can other male disciples in the sect get involved in the world? Therefore, regarding internal factors, there may only be a few crazy people who act more radically and often have private fights.
Something like that. But if this matter was disclosed to the outside world, all the male disciples of the Qingyun Sect would not stand idly by.
Ou Ye Changfeng waved his hand and said calmly: "This Zhong Rui is a member of the Lingxi tribe. When the tribe comes to visit, how can we, the Qingyun sect, keep the person outside the door? What's more, they just came to have a look and didn't say anything.
Something else.”
At this point, he said to this inner disciple: "Xin Yuan, please take this person to the foot of Qingling Peak."
Whenever the leader speaks, the young man named Xinyuan is always reluctant, but he accepts the order and goes.
“Why do you still need to bring me Qingling Peak? Let Lingxi meet at the door soon?” Ou Yezi muttered with some dissatisfaction.
"No matter what, they are members of your beloved disciple clan. You can make the decision for Lingxi, but you have to take care of the Qingyun Sect's face!" the old man said slowly.
Ou Yezi said nothing, but turned around and left the hall.
Ouyang Changfeng smiled bitterly. He knew very well the temperament of his junior disciple. If he didn't like to see this person, no matter who said it, he wouldn't know it. But it doesn't matter. I believe that for this little thing, Zhong Lingxi should be the one.
Can handle it well.
…………Dividing line…………
Zhong Rui brought the things he bought from Xiaohe Town, followed by a hired servant, dragging ten carriages. The carriages contained various valuable calligraphy, paintings and ornaments, plus several boxes of yellow and white things, which he exchanged
It took half of Xiaohe Town’s ticket number to redeem such a large amount!
He had secretly calculated before coming here that the total cost this time had exceeded one hundred thousand taels!
For an average family, this is an astronomical figure. Even for a smaller force, it is equivalent to a year's income. Looking at the Qingyun Sect disciples standing outside the gate, he naturally read the look in their eyes.
hostility.
Over the past five years, Zhong Rui has gradually grown from an iron-coated captain in charge of intelligence and internal affairs to the head of a trading company. The hardships involved are naturally incomprehensible to outsiders. Compared with the accumulation of material wealth, these few
Nian Zhongrui himself has also grown a lot, but this growth is not mainly reflected in martial arts, but in the control of human nature.
“Dear senior fellow apprentices, it’s really rude of Zhong to come to visit us without prior notice!” As he said this, he bowed.
It's just that he only slightly bowed his hands in this bow. It looked like he was bowing, but in fact he didn't bow at all.
"Haha, Your Excellency has traveled thousands of miles to visit the sisters in my family in Qingyun. Haha, this brother-sister relationship is enviable! Why is it so unreasonable? It's you! Master, doesn't he always teach us that we are guests from afar!
"At this time, a young man appeared outside the gate.
He first said a few words to Zhong Rui, and then scolded the people at the door with a side face.
“Ah! It’s Senior Brother Guo! I’ve seen Senior Brother Guo!” The people at the door saluted immediately when they saw the person coming.
Zhong Rui looked at the young man named Guo in front of him and narrowed his eyes slightly. Although the other person spoke politely, he actually had bad intentions! The other party kept saying that the relationship between him and Zhong Lingxi was "brother and sister", which was invisible.
He put himself on the line, if he really agreed, it would be easy for others to bring up marriage in the future.
“Haha, this brother is joking. I don’t know what to call him yet?” Zhong Rui smiled and asked.
“You’re welcome, I am the inner disciple of the Qingyun Sect, Guo Xinyuan!” The young man replied in a deep voice. This person was the inner disciple who had just come from the Qingyun Palace.
Zhong Rui raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a grin: "Oh? Inner disciple? Haha, I have met Guo Shaoxia!"
There are specific rules for addressing each other in the martial arts world. Inner sect disciples are almost considered an elite force for ordinary sects. Sects of different sizes have different numbers of inner sect disciples and different strengths.
In general third-rate sects, warriors who can reach the Mang realm can be counted as inner disciples, and those who have reached the knight realm can become elders in the sect. As for the number, there are generally ten elders and about three or four inner disciples.
ten people.
As for the second-rate sect, it is slightly stronger. Most of the inner disciples are at the realm of Mang. There are a few half-step knights or knights. The elders in the sect must at least be at the realm of knights. In terms of number, the elders are in the second-rate sect.
There are about ten people, and there are about fifty inner disciples.
The first-class sect is already a very powerful force in the world. Most of the inner disciples have reached the half-step chivalrous realm, and some have reached the chivalrous realm. The elders in the sect must at least reach the great chivalrous realm. Therefore, many elders of the first-class sects are actually
They all have the strength to establish a sect, because generally the leader of a third-rate sect has a martial arts cultivation level of Dacheng Realm. In terms of number of people, there are about 20 elders and about 70 inner disciples.
…
There are also unified names for the inner disciples of various sects in the world. Those who have reached the level of chivalrous people are naturally called "xiaozhe", while the inner disciples who have not reached the level of chivalrous people are called "young men".
"Xia". It can be regarded as a courtesy. After all, if you can become an inner disciple of a sect, who doesn't want to advance to the realm of Xia?
Of course, this is a term used in martial arts circles, and it is indistinguishable to ordinary people. After all, without martial arts cultivation, it is natural that one cannot feel the opponent's strength level. Therefore, in the secular world, the word "young hero" is used instead.
There are more people who practice martial arts at a young age and will become young heroes.
When Guo Xinyuan heard this, he snorted in his heart. Zhong Rui naturally realized that his inner strength was at the level of a half-step knight, and he had reached the final stage of entering the knight realm, so he said "Young Master"
"Xia" has somewhat unfriendly connotations.
“Haha, Mr. Zhong, please!” After saying that, the young man ignored this hateful young man and turned around and walked towards Qingling Peak.
Zhong Rui smiled slightly, then cupped his hands to the two Qingyun Sect disciples standing at the door and said: "These things are gifts I brought to the Qingyun Sect. Please ask someone to take them back to the back mountain."
Having said that, he no longer looked at the two people in front of him. He stepped into the gate of Qingyun Sect, followed Guo Xinyuan, and walked towards Qingling Peak calmly.
