"Let's go~"

Qian Dong grabbed the civet cat on his shoulder by the neck, then got on the horse, untied his clothes, put the cat in, patted the horse's back, and rode down to the villa.

The speed of the horse was very fast. Qian Dong drove the horse for a long time until the road became a little muddy and it was not easy to walk, so he slowed down.

When Qian Dong was about ten kilometers away from the villa, he noticed that many people around him were looking at him. He knew why these people were there and didn't want to care about them.

If it was close to the villa, he wouldn't mind cleaning it up. If it was this distance, it wouldn't matter. He didn't care if anyone knew about his itinerary. Besides, an occasional appearance might make those who were interested feel more at ease.

The destination was in a different direction this time. It no longer had to pass through the county capital, and Qian Dong had never walked through here before, so everything was a bit novel.

Qian Dong was not in a hurry this time, but he didn't have any good goals. He simply drove as hard as he could in the wild, and then stopped for a few days every time he reached a town or county.

Everywhere he went on the road, he would taste the local delicacies or take a look at the surrounding places of interest. If there were any activities, he wouldn't mind staying an extra day or two to join in the fun.

Of course, it was not all delicious food and beautiful scenery along the way. There were also many bandits who blocked the road. Qian Dong slaughtered all such people without any courtesy.

In addition, there are occasional battles between martial arts masters, but Qian Dong is not interested in these and has no intention of joining in the fun. With this time and energy, Qian Dong might as well eat more delicious food.

It feels really good to be able to travel as you please without having to think about anything.

As they walked, Qian Dong felt completely relaxed.

Qian Dong was able to start practicing martial arts in his thirties in such a short period of time, even with the blessing of the attribute panel, because he worked hard enough and was motivated enough.

Ever since he resigned, he had no way out. With the attribute panel, he still insisted on practicing martial arts for more than ten hours a day, all because he had enough pressure in his heart.

Practicing martial arts in your thirties is a very risky thing. At that time, Qian Dong needed to race against time to improve, especially when he knew that his body functions would decline as he got older. His urgency at that time was incomprehensible to others.

Visiting the Master everywhere, others called him from Xiaodong, to Master Qian, to Mr. Qian. There is Qian Dong's sweat in it.

He was also thankful that his original efforts made it possible for him to progress so quickly. Otherwise, the last time he met Zhai Yao, he might have been crippled. If he had been crippled, it would have led to the failure of the World War. , he didn't dare to think about what would happen at that time.

"Hey!! Brother, sir, please ask for directions!!!"

Just when Qian Dong was riding on the horse and thinking about whether to speed up so that he could reach the next town, a young voice sounded from behind Qian Dong, causing Qian Dong who was sitting leisurely on the horse to look back.

Qian Dong turned his head and looked behind him. Behind him was a boy about seventeen or eighteen years old, his clothes were a little white from being starched, walking out of a path in the woods.

The young man was carrying a cloth bag and a sword at his waist. However, although the hilt and scabbard looked decent, they were a bit ugly. It looked like they were made by himself, and he didn't know what to make of them. What does the sword look like when you pull out the sword inside.

"Sir, hoo~ sir, hoo~ hoo~ please wait..."

At this time, when the young man saw Qian Dong turning around, he quickened his pace even more. The sweat on his face was covered with a lot of mud due to running. After the sweat slipped away, there were several obvious marks on his face. He was looking at After understanding Qian Dong's appearance, he no longer called him eldest brother, but called him sir. It seems that Qian Dong now looks more like a scholar than a warrior.

At this time, Qian Dong was dressed in Tsing Yi, with a collar and long sleeves. His face was fair and smooth, and he was completely free of the dust of traveling. He looked elegant and elegant, and it seemed that there was no problem in calling him sir.

"what's up?"

Qian Dong pulled the reins, and the horse stopped obediently, lowered its head and began to eat grass. Qian Dong waited for the young man to approach, and then asked.

"Haha, sir, is this road heading towards Weihuo County?"

The young man came to Qian Dong's side, wiped his face, and looked up at Qian Dong. Although his face was wiped with sweat and dust, he looked like a tabby cat, but his eyes were very bright and lively, and Smile brightly too.

"Well, this is the way."

Qian Dong looked at the young man again. He had calluses on his hands, his body was thin, he was not tall, and his face was a little yellow. It seemed that it was caused by long-term malnutrition.

"That's good, that's good. Thank you, sir. Are you going to Weihuo County too?"

The young man breathed a sigh of relief, then asked Qian Dong, and at the same time began to walk forward, walking very fast, as if he was afraid of delaying the journey.

"Well, what are you doing in Taihuo County?"

Qian Dong was a little bored traveling alone. Now he saw that this young man was hard to guard against. He looked like he came from a mountain village, and Qian Dong was also interested in chatting with him.

Qian Dong came all the way, and other people, whether they were on their way, escorting escorts, or transporting supplies, all of them either kept away from strangers or had sad faces, and were very wary of strangers, which made Qian Dong come all the way. It was quite boring to come here.

"Hey, I want to go to the Sword Sect to become a disciple. You don't have to go far to get to the Sword Sect from Weihuo County. The Sword Sect's celebration only happens once every ten years. I have to hurry up, otherwise I won't have the chance if I miss it."

The young man scratched his head and smiled while talking, but his feet did not slow down at all and kept walking forward.

"Are you accepting disciples during the Sword Sect celebration?"

Qian Dong is not in a hurry. He is going to attend the celebration. He just needs to arrive on the day of the celebration. There are still several days to go. There is no rush at all. Looking at the appearance of this young man, he seems to know something. Anyway, it is boring. Then It’s not bad to just have a chat.

"The Sword Sect usually does not accept disciples from outside. They only accept disciples from lower-level sects or branches in various places. They recommend outstanding disciples to the Sword Sect, and then they make selections. Therefore, if you want to join the Sword Sect, the best way is to find a local and sword sect. Just become a disciple of a sect with which the sect is related."

After finishing speaking, the boy took a breath, then took out a kettle from his arms, took a small sip, and smiled at Qian Dong after drinking.

Qian Dong nodded. This time is just a time for martial arts. The people here are not stupid at all.

When the disciples of the Sword Sect reach a certain age and level, if they want to support themselves in old age, as long as they contribute enough, they can leave the Sword Sect and find a place to live in seclusion, or start a sect, and these established sects can also fight. If you act under the banner of Jian Zong, as long as you don't do anything harmful to nature, Jian Zong is also happy to see the results.

It doesn't mean that if you join Sword Sect, you have to work for Sword Sect until death. Moreover, the Sword Sect will not restrict the behavior of its disciples. To join the Sword Sect, you only need to complete the corresponding tasks or make a contribution, and no one will care where you go. That is, those sects send talented disciples to the Sword Sect. You can get certain benefits right away, and then these disciples can go back to help the sect at any time.

However, if the disciples of the sect want to learn any skills or swordsmanship, they need to make corresponding contributions in exchange. How will the contributions come from? You can accept tasks, create exercises, or go out to establish a sect and then recommend talented disciples. There are various ways to increase your contribution.

To use a metaphor to describe Jianzong, that is chain and franchise. Jianzong allows disciples to go out to start businesses. They only need to pay the franchise fee every year. Then they must meet the standards of Jianzong, and if there are difficulties in Jianzong or Jianzong When needed, these sects must respond and support.

The Luohua Sword Sect, the neighbor of Woniu Villa, is like this. If you reach a certain level, you can be registered in the Sword Sect. Even if you have been in decline for a while, as long as someone reaches the standard again, the Sword Sect will immediately send someone to re-register, and then get recommended outstanding disciples. quota, the Luohua Sword Sect is equivalent to becoming a lower-level sect of the Sword Sect.

This model allows the Sword Sect to not worry about not having outstanding disciples, and they do not accept disciples directly. It also gives those lower-level sects more opportunities to recruit disciples. If you want to join the Sword Sect, you can only join the lower-level sect first, and if the local If a powerful or wealthy family wants to become a disciple, it can also bring benefits to the lower-level sects.

"I have been to a local apprenticeship, but their apprenticeship fees are too expensive. Even if I only need to pay a down payment and pay it back over time, I still can't afford the down payment."

When the young man said this, he felt a little depressed. It could be seen from his clothes that this young man was either born in poverty or grew up eating a lot of food.

In this world, martial arts are prosperous. If you have not practiced martial arts since childhood, or have extraordinary talents, it is also very difficult to become a disciple or join a big sect. It is no easier than going to a famous university in modern society.

In this world, even if there is plenty of spiritual energy, martial arts training is not something that ordinary families can support, not to mention that the young man in front of him still comes from a humble background.

"Can I become a disciple now?"

Qian Dong asked, a little curious. He knew something about this world.

People at the bottom are not easy to get along in no matter which world they are in.

"Haha, the Sword Sect Celebration is not actually recruiting disciples. They are recruiting handyman disciples. However, handyman disciples can also learn some basic martial arts. If they are talented, they can still be recruited into the sect. It takes ten years to recruit handyman disciples. Once, I wanted to try my luck.”

The young man was talking and laughing. He didn't care at all about becoming a handyman disciple, and even looked forward to it.

"What's wrong, handyman disciple? Are you sure you will become a formal disciple from a handyman disciple?"

Qian Dong looked at the expression on the young man's face, and seemed to be full of hope for the handyman disciples. He couldn't help but scan the young man with his spiritual thoughts, and then asked.

Unfortunately, when his mind swept over him, he found that the young man had an average physique and was even a little weak. He was not as gifted as Hu Shan. Moreover, due to long-term malnutrition, the young man's energy and spirit were actually relatively weak, which might not give him the foundation to realize his ideals.

"Formal disciple? How dare you think about that? I just hope that I can become a handyman disciple and learn some martial arts. When the time limit for being a handyman disciple is up, I will live in the town outside the Sword Sect and get a wife. When the time comes, I will give birth to a child. If a son is born, he will have the opportunity to be accepted into the Sword Sect and contribute to the Sword Sect. When the time comes, he can also recommend his descendants to enter the Sword Sect's entrance examination, but it will be more complicated."

The smile on the young man's face became brighter, but the words he spoke made Qian Dong silent for a while.

In fact, the young man already knows that he is unlikely to achieve much, but he is willing to make progress. He may be full of hope for the future, but his birth does not allow him to have a brighter future, but he does not give up.

He is also prepared to work hard to give his descendants a slight chance.

In fact, it is not easy for the bottom of every world. If you want to be rich and get ahead, you must work hard. Perhaps it is not the efforts of one generation, but the efforts of several generations before you can see hope.

Qian Dong thought of modern society at this moment. He just had an attribute panel. Otherwise, he might be like the boy in front of him now, working hard for the next generation to have a better starting point, and making money all at once. Dong felt a little more fond of the young man in front of him.

"Haha, that's good. I'm also going to the Sword Sect, so let's go together."

Qian Dong originally wanted to chat and leave. The Sword Sect celebration had not yet started and he could go to the county capital to play around. Now that he met this young man, he gave up his original plan, perhaps because of the young man's words. He was a little touched. In this case, it seemed good to help this young man.

"Really? That would be great."

The boy's eyes lit up, and then he smiled.

He didn't ask Qian Dong why he went to Jian Zong. He didn't think too much. Maybe Qian Dong was a genius disciple of the lower sect of Jian Zong. Maybe Qian Dong was a disciple of Jian Zong. He never thought about asking Qian Dong to carry his shoes. , who grew up eating hundreds of meals, knows that there is no free lunch in the world. He is just happy because he does not have to walk alone in the next journey and can be accompanied by someone.

"How long have you been gone?"

"It's been half a month."

"Are you all traveling alone?"

"Yes."

"Aren't you afraid of danger?"

"Fortunately, I always take the official route, and occasionally take shortcuts, and I don't have any valuables. Even if they search me, they will find nothing on me, and they will say something nice and let me go. "

The smile on the young man's face was as always, and he didn't have any cultivation in him. It was just that in the world of spiritual energy, his patience and physical fitness were better, but this did not affect his hope for the future.

……

One of them rode a horse, the other walked, occasionally exchanging a few words, and then rushed towards Jian Zong.

"Meow~~"

The sun began to set, and the two of them had arrived near a town. However, they did not enter the town. Instead, they came to a nearby ruined temple and planned to camp here.

The boy didn't have money to stay when he went to town, so it would be better to just stay outside. Qian Dong didn't care. He had money, but he didn't intend to give it to the boy. There was no need for it, and the boy might not accept it. , after all, the two met by chance.
