The journey of martial arts mainly depends on talent, potential, hard work and persistence. To put it bluntly, it is one's own qualifications and a desire for martial arts, but this does not mean that external things have no effect.
At least for the initial stage, having external help can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
For example, during the basic period of muscle and bone training, those who have the conditions will use various medicinal materials, soak them in water, and bathe with them every day to strengthen their bodies. As for those who do not have the conditions, they will go to the mountains and forests to collect herbs, or
Create conditions for yourself through other means.
During the Qi refining period, warriors will also look for similar things, such as Qi nourishing pills.
The only function of the Qi Nourishing Pill is to make it easier for warriors to gather Qi when refining... The same warrior, without the help of the Qi Nourishing Pill, will take a year to reach the first level of Qi Refining, but if every month
By taking Qi-nourishing pills, he might be able to reach the first level of Qi refining in just seven or eight months, or even shorter.
Don't underestimate this little time, because human life is limited, but martial arts is endless. For a warrior, even a minute or a second of time cannot be easily wasted.
This also shows the importance of Qi-nourishing pills for warriors in the Qi-refining stage.
The method of refining Qi-nourishing pills is not difficult, and most pharmacists can do it, but the materials are a bit troublesome, so the price is not low. Currently, one Qi-nourishing pill on the market costs fifty taels of silver... This is almost a year for a family of three.
If you live frugally, you can use it for two or three years without any problem.
As a martial arts family, the Lin family naturally has no shortage of Qi-nourishing pills. Disciples within the family can each receive ten pills per month, and disciples with other surnames can receive five pills per month. Even the martial arts guards who look after the family and the courtyard can only receive Qi-nourishing pills if they perform well.
Everyone can get one... Add all of these people together, and the Lin family spends a huge amount on Qi Nourishing Pills every month.
From this, we can also see that the Lin family is wealthy and it is not unreasonable for them to dominate Tianhe City.
In short, if you want to get ahead by practicing martial arts and swordsmanship, not everyone can do it. Sometimes external things are also necessary. For example, no matter how talented you are, if you come from a poor family that can’t even afford food,
Here, unless there is a sect or aristocratic family willing to accept you as a disciple, there is basically no hope.
Although it is cruel, the world is always like this. Wherever there are people, there are gaps.
That's why the power of families and sects is so huge in this world. Small families work hard to become a big family, and big families work hard to become a bigger family. Competition and fighting will never stop.
As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
Going a step further, Lin Ze was stunned for a moment when he saw Lin Yao taking out five Qi-nourishing pills and handing them to him, then shook his head and refused, "You can use this for yourself, I don't want it."
Although he and Lin Yao are the sons and daughters of the head of the Lin family, with noble status, and Lin Yao is a little genius, the Lin family has strict rules and treats everyone equally, so even with their status, they can only get
With ten Qi-nourishing pills, it is impossible to open a small stove based on the status of young master and young lady.
Lin Yao is now in the early stage of Qi refining, and Qi-nourishing pills have a great effect on her. Originally, ten pills a month were just right, but now if she gives him five pills at once, her own cultivation speed will slow down, so Lin Ze doesn't want to
.
After all, with his current state of being unable to gather Qi, a few more Qi-nourishing pills would be of no use.
Lin Yao didn't speak, she just handed it over and pouted, her little face full of stubbornness.
Lin Ze smiled bitterly, "Yao'er, don't make trouble!"
When Yao'er doesn't make trouble, she just raises her hand.
This girl's temper was just like that of a cow... Lin Ze was speechless.
When Lin Yao almost handed the five Qi-nourishing Pills to his mouth, Lin Ze knew that he could no longer refuse, so he had no choice but to accept them.
"Hehe." The little girl took back her hand and immediately started to smile.
"You..." Lin Ze shook his head, not knowing what to say for a while, but he soon found a topic and asked, "By the way, Yao'er, how long have I been unconscious?"
"It's been a day. My brother was sent back yesterday evening. After diagnosis and treatment, it was said that... my whole body of true energy has been exhausted, and I can no longer gather it. It is even... that I may never be able to practice again in the future."
Lin Yao said sadly, thinking that her brother usually worked so hard to practice, which took longer than anyone else. In the past two years, he only slept three or four hours a day, and even had very little time to play with her. Now
But when she ended up like this, she couldn't help but feel sad.
Lin Ze was not as pessimistic as her, because he still had another hope - the silver sword, so he temporarily put aside his worries at this moment, and instead started to coax his sister happily.
It wasn't until he told a few modern jokes to make his sister laugh that he continued to ask: "What do your family think about this incident?"
This time, of course, it refers to the attack on him in the dark forest. His intuition told him that this was no accident.
Lin Yao had nothing to do at this time, and she usually liked to hang out with this approachable brother, so when Lin Ze asked, she immediately moved a chair over and told Lin Ze what she knew.
"I went to eavesdrop on the meeting between dad and the elders in the morning. I heard that this matter was probably done by the Lou family... Huh, their Lou family always dislikes us. They robbed a lot of our house last month.
Business." The little girl was very angry when she talked about the Lou family. The other person might be the person who harmed her brother, and she could indeed be angry.
"The Lou family..." Lin Ze closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then nodded slightly.
The Lou family is slightly less powerful than the Lin family in Tianhe City. In order to compete for the position of overlord, conflicts with the Lin family are no longer a matter of a day or two. In the past, they often did things secretly, either destroying the Lin family's business or doing some things.
It is not impossible to say that the Lou family was responsible for the headache that caused the Lin family this time.
After all, with the eyes and ears of the Lou family, it is impossible for the younger generation of the Lin family to go to the dark forest for training without knowing. In fact, the reason why people like them were attacked by the poisonous python, the overlord of the forest, may be the fault of the Lou family.
Damn it! The more Lin Ze thought about it, the angrier he became.
"So what are the arrangements at home?" Lin Ze asked again, suppressing the anger in his heart.
"Of course dad is very angry, and the elders are also very angry, but they also said that because there is no evidence and only speculation, we cannot start a war with the Lou family, otherwise the problem will become more serious, so they put this matter aside for the time being.
It's suppressed." Lin Yao pouted, seeming a little dissatisfied.
But Lin Ze nodded, "As it should be."
Although everyone in the family knew that the Lou family was behind his death, without evidence, the Lin family could do nothing. After all, once they openly broke up, the two sides would only be fighting to the death. And what's more,
The key point is that the Lou family has several connections with the Jin royal family. If the Lin family rashly starts a war without evidence, it will leave something to be said, and then the Lou family can openly ask the Jin royal family to take action.
The Lin family is not afraid of the Lou family, but they have to worry about the Jin royal family.
Although the big family is powerful and has huge resources, the constraints it is subject to are far beyond the imagination of the Lone Ranger. Being unknown is a recipe for death for any big family, unless it is so strong that it ignores everything.
Although Lin Yao is young, she is not an ignorant girl. She also knows this, so even if she is a little dissatisfied, she will not express any opinions on matters against the Lou family. After all, once the two families go to war, death and injury are inevitable.
Yes, she doesn't want anyone in her family to die.
The little girl had a flexible mind and could cry and laugh. She seemed to suddenly think of something interesting and said: "By the way, Grandpa Six is even more angry than dad. In the morning, he was still clamoring to paint a skin and kill him tonight."
The son of the Lou family. Although he was comforted by his father and grandpa, he kept blowing his beard and staring, which is very funny, haha."
While talking, the little girl imitated the Sixth Grandpa in her mouth, blowing her beard and staring, which was very cute.
"Haha." Seeing her like this, Lin Ze also smiled.
The Sixth Grandpa in Lin Yao's mouth is the Sixth Elder of the Lin family. He is a very grumpy but also very cute old man. Usually when he sees Lin Ze, he sighs and shakes his head. He sighs because he is hardworking enough, and shakes his head because he
His talent is mediocre, he spends more time than others, but his cultivation progress is slower than others.
Of course, in fact, Lin Ze's talent is not bad. After all, his fifth level of Qi refining is always ranked first among the younger generation of the Lin family and one of the elite group. If he were an ordinary disciple of the Lin family, it would be enough for him.
People praise him, and if he is a disciple of a different gender, then he is a key talent to be cultivated.
But the problem is that Lin Ze is the son of the head of the Lin family, and may take over the entire Lin family in the future. The strength of the elite group crane tail is far from enough.
As for the Sixth Elder Council being so angry, it was not because of how much they loved him, but because of his status. The future head of the Lin family, who was so dignified, was almost assassinated, and might even lose his cultivation. This was simply a slap in the face of the Lin family.
Shiting and peeing on the Lin family's head is no longer Lin Ze's problem alone.
If word gets out, how will the Lin family have the dignity to establish a foothold in Tianhe City in the future!
"Also, the people who hurt my brother this time were all killed by my sister and brother Lin Chen. Because they didn't leave any survivors alive as evidence to accuse the Lou family, and they didn't protect my brother, my sister and brother Lin Chen were tortured.
They scolded me so much, hehe." When others were scolded, the little girl seemed very happy.
Lin Ze was speechless.
After continuing to chat for a while, Lin Ze didn't want to waste too much of the little girl's training time. At the same time, he also wanted to see what the little silver sword in his body was, so he excused himself to rest and started chasing customers.
Although Lin Yao was a little reluctant to leave, she did not dare to disturb Lin Ze's rest.
After sending the little girl away, Lin Ze immediately closed his eyes and entered a state of inner vision.
In the dantian, a small silver sword lay there quietly.
