Chapter 307 Qin Mansion
"Yes, what's the problem? No, why are you so clear about the seniority of the Qin family? You are also a child of the Qin family, right?" Qin Xingbao nodded when he heard the words, followed by a surprised expression.

"I'm sorry, my name is Qin Ziling, and I also came to Wuzhou to participate in the Qin family's ancestor worship ceremony." Qin Ziling looked at Qin Xingbao with a smile on his face and said.

Qin Xingbao looked at Qin Ziling who was smiling, his expression froze all of a sudden, his bearded face flushed unconsciously, after a while, Qin Xingbao cupped his hands at Qin Ziling and said, "Xingbao has seen Uncle Clan."

"Excuse me." Qin Ziling smiled and waved his hands, and then said, "Since you have been to Wuzhou, then you must know how the Qin Mansion left?"

"Yes, Uncle Clan can go with me." Qin Xingbao quickly returned to normal, grinning.

"That's just right, I'm just about to ask someone for directions." Qin Ziling said.

"Hey, Uncle Clan and I are predestined, and we met by such a coincidence. By the way, Uncle Clan, how old are you?" After the initial embarrassment was gone, Qin Xingbao soon became cheerful and talkative again. .

"26 years old." Qin Ziling replied, shook the reins, and drove the horse into the city.

Seeing this, Qin Xingbao hurriedly chased after him, riding side by side with Qin Ziling, and said, "Uncle Clan is so young, I'm already 32 years old. I don't know what cultivation Uncle Clan is now?"

The last time Qin Ziling just fought against injustice, those bad guys were swept away by Qin Xingbao like an autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves. Qin Ziling just threw a few people with brute force, and had no chance to show his bones, so Qin Xingbao didn't know what he was Cultivation.

"Bone refining late stage." Qin Ziling replied.

Hearing this, Qin Xingbao swayed slightly on the horse's back, and then said with admiration and envy: "Then you are much better than me, I'm only in the middle stage of bone refining, you will definitely become the key child of the family this time, even The core children are not necessarily."

"You are also very powerful. At the age of 32, you are already a great martial artist in the mid-stage of bone refining." Qin Ziling said.

Qin Ziling's words were not perfunctory to Qin Xingbao.

At that time, Cui Shanhe was very powerful, but he only became a great bone refining master at the age of 29. Now Qin Xingbao is already a great bone refining master at the age of 32. Obviously, the root bone talent is not bad for Cui Shanhe.

"In Qingjun Prefecture, like me, martial arts talent is relatively strong, but in Wuzhou, it is not enough. I don't know if I can squeeze into the ranks of key children this time. If I can squeeze in, then I hope to be a Martial Dao Grandmaster, otherwise, with my family background, it would be very difficult to become a Martial Dao Grandmaster." Qin Xingbao said, with a look of worrying about gains and losses.

Qin Ziling was not too surprised when he heard the words, like Cui Shanhe is very powerful in Qinghe County, but if he hadn't met him, with the Cui family's family background, unless there is a great opportunity, it is basically impossible to become a martial arts master.

With the innate conditions such as root talent, the competition is the acquisition of resources and cultivation.

Even because the entry threshold for martial arts is relatively low, acquired resources and cultivation are even more important.

"What are key disciples, core disciples?" Qin Ziling asked.

"The core disciples are the ones that the Qin family values ​​and nurtures the most. They can even eat some fifth-grade exotic beast flesh and blood every now and then, and of course there are many other excellent resources to improve their cultivation.

However, the core disciples are generally selected from the direct disciples of the Patriarch's line, and the disciples of other branch branches will be selected into the core disciples unless they are particularly outstanding and definitely hopeful for the realm of a master.

The key disciples are selected from among all the descendants of the Qin family who are exceptionally talented.Like Uncle Clan, you are only 26 years old and you are already a great martial artist in the late stage of bone refining. There must be some key students. As for whether you can be selected as core students, it is hard to say. "Qin Xingbao explained.

"So there are so many things to pay attention to!" Qin Ziling said.

"That's for sure. Even if the Qin family in Wuzhou has a big business, they can't afford to be squandered at will. They must use good resources on promising children, so as to ensure the long-term prosperity of the family." Qin Xingbao said.

Qin Ziling nodded approvingly.

A few years ago, he personally took the time to select and eliminate troops in Yunluo Lake, in fact, in order to use good resources on promising subordinates.

"By the way, where does the clan uncle live? Which branch does he belong to?" Qin Xingbao quickly asked again.

"My family is in Xiyun Prefecture. My great-grandfather and the grandfather of the current patriarch are half-brothers." Qin Ziling replied.

"Then you are considered a branch of the Patriarch's lineage. Even if you are not a direct descendant of the Patriarch's lineage, you are much closer than me. With your aptitude and talent, if you work hard, you may really have a chance to be selected as the core children.

If he can be selected as a core disciple, he will be able to eat the flesh and blood of a fifth-rank alien beast every now and then, then the uncle of the clan must be expected to be a master.Once you become a martial arts master, you are the elder of the family, and that is the real position and weight. "

Qin Xingbao was shocked at first when he heard the words, and then his face was full of envy. When he even talked about the fifth-rank strange beast, his eyes were shining and he swallowed his saliva.

"Could the key disciples read the internal exercises?" Qin Ziling smiled noncommittally, and then asked.

Now he doesn't lack the flesh and blood of fifth-grade exotic beasts, but what he lacks are skills.

As long as the key students are qualified to read the exercises in the part of viscera refining, it is enough for him.

If you really want to get a core disciple, not only will you have to expose your strength and secrets more, but you will definitely have greater responsibilities to the Qin family in Wuzhou in the future.

Qin Ziling's understanding of the Qin family is still very limited, and he hasn't even met the members of the Qin family who are really in power. Naturally, he doesn't want to get too involved in the affairs of the Qin family.

"Of course, the key students are all candidates for martial arts masters. How can they become martial arts masters if they are not allowed to read the visceral exercises? However, it is said that the key students who have cultivated to the late stage of bone refining can only read one Practicing internal organs." Qin Xingbao replied.

"Really? Can't you look through the second door?" Qin Ziling frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Last time, Qin Tianchou was anxious to finish the matter within two months and rush back, so he rushed to Nanding Prefecture, which was occupied by the rebels, without staying in the Qin family for long. Qin Ziling didn't have time to ask about many things in detail.

"It should be possible, but there must be conditions. The cultivation of children at each level in the family has certain standards. If they exceed the standards, they need to be exchanged for credit or other things, and it is impossible to give them for free. Like I am 29 years old. I made a breakthrough and became a great bone refiner. At that time, I reported to the Qin family in Wuzhou and was approved as a first-class child. The family gave me some cultivation resources and guidance according to this standard.

By the way, after the key children, they are divided into first, second and second grades. After the second grade, the family generally doesn't pay too much attention, and needs to find a way out by itself.Of course, if it is a direct descendant of the main line, no matter how poor the talent is, the family will pay attention to and cultivate it, so that they will have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime. "Qin Xingbao replied.

Qin Ziling nodded to express his understanding when he heard the words, but he was thinking in his heart: "No wonder my great-great-grandfather moved to Xiyun Prefecture back then. It seems that he belonged to the kind of collateral children with poor talents. Qin Tianchou is the current patriarch's son. Nephew, so even if you don't have any natural talent, you still have a detached status in the family, and you have great martial artists and great qi masters to guard you when you go out and do things."

"Hey, Uncle Clan, you said that you are a branch of the main branch, why don't you know about this?" Qin Xingbao realized later.

"Our family has been passed down in a single line since our great-grandfather. My grandfather and father passed away when I was a child. If the Qin family in Wuzhou hadn't continued to revise the genealogy, I would not even know that the ancestral temple of my Qin family is in Wuzhou." Qin Ziling replied.

"So, the uncle of the family has never received the support of the Qin family's clan in Wuzhou before this, and he has cultivated to the current level by his own ability!" Qin Xingbao was surprised at first when he heard the words, and then he was in awe.

For Qin Xingbao, Qin Ziling started from scratch, but he was sheltered under the big tree of the Qin family in Wuzhou, and with their help, he was able to get to where he is today.

Qin Ziling smiled noncommittally.

The two entered the city while chatting.

Qin Xingbao is a talkative person, and he admires Qin Ziling, the clan uncle, so he kept talking along the way, which made Qin Ziling know a lot about the Qin family in Wuzhou.

But the more he got to know Qin Ziling, the more he was surprised by the power of the Qin family.

While talking, the two rode a strange beast horse through the wide roads and streets.

Most of the people encountered along the way are ordinary people, but the number of warriors and qi refiners is much more than that of other states and counties.

Even the masters that are rare to meet in other states and counties, along the way, Qin Ziling discovered several with his keen five senses.

Soon, the two came to a mansion on a strange beast horse.

It is more appropriate to say that it is a mansion, rather than a city.

The 20-meter-wide moat and tens-of-meter-high walls protect the palaces, courtyards, and gardens inside.

The mansion covers an area of ​​[-] mu, and there are eight suspension bridges hanging over the river, leading to eight gates and exits.

From time to time, pedestrians and carriages enter and exit through the gate.

"This is the Qin Mansion! Outside the state city, the Qin family built another city, named Qin City, which is even bigger than this one. It is also the ancestral home of the Qin family. The ancestor worship ceremony will be held in Qin City in a month's time." Qin Xingbao stood by the moat and pointed to the city within the city across the river.

Before Qin Xingbao finished speaking, Qin Ziling felt two surges of powerful Qi and blood rushing from far and near behind him.

Then, he saw a young man riding a silver dragon horse onto the suspension bridge.

Silver dragon horse, a fourth-grade exotic animal horse, silver in color, with a dragon head and a horse body, but the horse's hooves are in the form of dragon claws, and when it falls, clouds of smoke are produced from the hooves.

The young man on horseback was dressed in white, with a pair of slender and sharp black eyes under his straight eyebrows, his face was expressionless, as cold as if carved out of marble.

When the pedestrians on the suspension bridge and the guards at the gate saw the man coming on horseback, they all stepped aside and bowed in salute.
