Chapter 20: Family Records

Jiang Chen took the martial arts scroll in his father's Jiang Yuan's hand, and suddenly an extremely cold aura hit his whole body from the scroll, his body couldn't help but tremble, and a trace of frost was faintly visible on his entire arm. Seeing this, Jiang Chen immediately activated the martial arts resistance in his body. When the power of Wu Yuan filled the whole body, the cold meaning of the arm dissipated.

"It's so cold. Jiang Chen exclaimed, looking at the scroll in his hand with some horror.

Jiang Yuan and Qin Lan looked at Jiang Chen, and when they saw Jiang Chen so shocked by the martial arts, they couldn't help but smile bitterly. Jiang Yuan said at this time: "The family inheritance method is divided into three stages, and each stage has a different power. It is estimated that with your current strength, if you want to cultivate to the realm of Dacheng, it will take at least a hundred years. ”

Jiang Chen glared, it would take a hundred years to cultivate a single exercise to the fullest? This is too long, right?

"Of course, that's just my father's preliminary estimate, as for when you will be able to cultivate to the fullest, everything depends on you. If you work hard and add talent, you should have achieved something in thirty or fifty years. "Jiang Yuan didn't mean to hit Jiang Chen, it was indeed because it was difficult for the family to inherit the martial arts and martial arts. With his thirty years of cultivation, he hadn't even crossed the first level. It can be seen how difficult it is for the Jiang family to inherit the martial arts and martial arts.

Jiang Chen was helpless, how could some exercises and martial arts be cultivated, he would have to cultivate for thirty or fifty years at every turn, and by that time, the daylily would really be cold.

"Okay, the martial arts have been handed over to you, so let's go and practice now. Well, first cultivate the martial arts to convert the martial source into ice attributes, and then practice the martial arts. Of course, the cultivation of martial arts is much easier than the exercises, and it is estimated that after a year and a half of trials, you can reach the realm of perfection. Jiang Yuan pondered for a moment and said.

Jiang Chen nodded, and wanted to turn around and leave, but at this time, he was stopped by Jiang Yuan: "Come back, behind the god platform, there is an ice room, and there is a thousand-year-old ice in the ice room, and if you convert the attribute martial arts on it, the speed will be very fast." ”

"Ice room?" Jiang Chen frowned, there was still such a place in the house, how could he not know?

"This ice chamber was left by the ancestors of the past generations, and few people know about it. In other words, only those who practice the inheritance of martial arts and martial arts, the thousand-year-old ice in the ice room will have a different effect. Jiang Yuan explained, and then he walked to the left of the shrine, where there was a welcoming pine.

Jiang Chen and Qin Lan followed and walked over, only to see Jiang Yuan standing there, his sleeve robe waving, a gentle energy passed by, and with a rumbling sound, the welcoming pine suddenly turned. And the Shentai also shook violently at this moment, and disappeared in an instant, and what appeared in front of me was the Daomen, ancient wood carvings, quite ancient.

With the disappearance of the Shentai, an extremely cold breath suddenly came to his face, Jiang Chen's body shook, standing outside the door, he could also feel the cold in the ice room, and this cold breath was very strong, I believe that people with a slightly weaker physique would not dare to get too close.

"Is it cold for a thousand years? It's really cold enough, with the word thousand years. The corners of Jiang Chen's mouth opened and he smirked.

"Jiang Chen, go in, remember, you can't use martial arts to resist the cold, otherwise it will be slower to convert. Jiang Yuan waved his hand and said. Jiang Chen nodded again, no longer hesitated, took a step, pushed the door and entered the ice room. After Jiang Chen stepped into the ice room, the door of the ice room creaked and closed.

"Big brother, when do you think Jiang Chen will be able to complete the refining?" Looking at Jiang Chen's disappearing figure in front of him, Qin Lan turned his head and asked with a smile.

Jiang Yuan pondered for a moment, and then said: "The Jiang family has been passed down from generation to generation, and the time for each family master to refine the family's inherited exercises is different, and the faster the refining speed, the higher the cultivation achievements in the future. It is recorded in the family annals that the thirteenth generation head of the Jiang family with the fastest refining speed took only one hour to convert the martial source in his body into an ice attribute. That family master Jiang Xuan in the end, he achieved a strong martial venerable, and it was a nine-stage martial venerable, if it weren't for some opponents, I believe that breaking through martial venerable would not be a problem. ”

"Nine-stage Martial Venerable, it's really powerful, if the third brother and I can cultivate, it would be great. Qin Lan smiled.

"Of course, since then, there has never been a generation of family heads who can reach that height, otherwise, our Jiang family would not have to be down-and-out in Qingshan Town. Jiang Yuan smiled wistfully, he really hoped that Jiang Chen could have good results, but it all depended on Jiang Chen himself. As for the refining speed, he didn't dare to make a conclusion.

"Then why didn't the big brother put a little pressure on Jiang Chen? In this way, didn't it make Jiang Chen more motivated to change attributes?" Qin Lan put his hands behind his back, looked at the closed wooden door of the ice room, and said suspiciously.

"If you put too much pressure on that kid, I'm afraid it will backfire, so it's better to go with the flow. Whether he can break the record set by the ancestor Jiang Xuan can only wait and see. Jiang Yuan shook his head and said, "If Jiang Chen's refining speed is slower than mine, then I don't plan to tell him about the family." After all, the affairs of that family have not been completed for generations, and the burden is too heavy, and I am afraid that Jiang Chen will not be able to bear it. ”

"Big brother really doesn't plan to tell Jiang Chen about the family?" Qin Lan frowned and asked.

"Look at it, maybe Jiang Chen's achievements will be higher than mine in the future, and he will be able to fulfill the last wish of the Jiang family branch that has not been fulfilled for generations. Jiang Yuan sighed, the burden of the family was too heavy, as Jiang Chen's father, he didn't want Jiang Chen to fall into the shame of the family. If Jiang Chen can live his life peacefully, he will be very happy, and he must be happier than now.

"By the way, big brother, the materials for crafting, etc., Qin Xiao has already purchased them, and it is estimated that the day after tomorrow, he will be able to open the furnace to create weapons and armor. However, with our current financial resources, we are not enough to complete the share we need. The two were silent for a while, and Qin Lan said with a frown.

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan frowned: "In terms of money, the eldest brother will think of a way, the source of materials, etc., and the third brother needs you to come out in person." If there is a problem with the price, the eldest brother thinks that he should first build a batch of high-quality weapons and armor, and then sell them, so that the cycle of making profits should be able to support the source of materials, and maybe it will not affect the progress. ”

Qin Lan nodded, and suddenly said angrily: "Damn, if it weren't for the stubbornness of those old families of the Qin clan, I think the action would have started a long time ago, let alone be embarrassed by the problem of materials and money." ... When they get the chance, they will make their old guys look good. ”

"Forget it, third brother, you are the patriarch of the Qin clan, everything must be based on the interests of the family, you help the eldest brother, it is already difficult, some things can be avoided, don't hurt the harmony between the clansmen. Jiang Yuan patted Qin Lan on the shoulder and persuaded him. Qin Lan gritted his teeth fiercely and fell silent...

A small town in the green hills, in the woods of the green hills, somewhere.

Rustling...

The sound of leaves filled, and I saw a burst of conversation in the trees in the distance. As the conversation got closer and closer, it was clearly visible that there were more than a dozen figures there, and walking in front of these people was a familiar face, the head of the Zhang family, Zhang Wuliang.

Next to Zhang Wuliang is an old man who is over half a hundred years old, and this person is the messenger, Lao Qi. Behind the two of them, a group of people were all elders of the Zhang family.

"Old gentleman, where is that cave? Haven't you arrived yet?" Zhang Wuliang held a sharp sword in his hand, brandished and chopped off some branches and leaves that stood in the way, and then turned his head to the old man and asked.

"My lord, the cave is on the cliff of the mountain not far ahead..."The old man smiled respectfully, stretched out his hand and pointed in a distant direction, and replied.

Zhang Wuliang and others, through the gap between the branches and leaves, can vaguely see a continuous mountain in the distance. Seeing this, Zhang Wuliang, who wanted to be anxious, ordered: "Everyone speed up the pace, don't grind anymore, whoever dares to hesitate, the family law will deal with it." ”

Hearing this, the Zhang family and the others did not dare to hesitate, the light flashed under their feet, and they galloped forward desperately.

Looking at the crowd and others speeding up their pace, Zhang Wuliang hesitated. There was a smell of uneasiness in his heart, which was gradually spreading throughout his body, and the closer he got to the mountains, the richer it became, and he was a little struggling to press.

"Qian'er, it's better that something doesn't happen. Zhang Wuliang comforted himself and quickened his pace.

Moment...

"My lord, this is it, at that time, the little one saw the waste of the Jiang family, sneaking down from above. At the foot of the mountain, the old man brushed aside a trace of branches and leaves, pointed to the steep mountain wall in front of him, and said.

The Zhang family and the others looked at it, and the mountain wall in front of them, except for the dense trees, there was no cave as the old man said. Seeing this, Zhang Wuliang snorted coldly: "Old man, what about the cave you are talking about? Why don't you see it? Do you want to play with us?"

Zhang Wuliang's words, with a strong killing intent, the old man's legs and feet couldn't help but tremble: "My lord, please take a closer look at a tree on the left side of the mountain wall." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Wuliang approached and took a closer look, on the steep mountain wall, there was a dense tree, and next to the old tree roots, there was really a cave.

"How do I go up?" Zhang Wuliang turned his head and asked.

"Adult, please come with the little one. The old man said, took Zhang Wuliang and the others, walked dozens of meters to the left of the front, came to a tree, looked away, and tied a vine to the tree: "My lord, grab this vine, you can climb up." ”

Zhang Wuliang nodded, and immediately untied the vines tied to the tree, pulled twice, determined the position, and after determining the stability, he said, "Old man, you climb up first to explore the way." ”

When the old man heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and replied in fear: "Adult, that's all the little one knows, there's nothing to do, the little one should go back first." ”

"If I tell you to go up, you will go up, otherwise, believe it or not, I will kill you with a sword?" Zhang Wuliang said coldly, he didn't want to take risks for this kind of dangerous thing, and he didn't want his people to take risks, so he had to let the old man explore the way.

The old man trembled, did not dare to refuse, and grabbed the vine in fear and climbed up. Then, Zhang Wuliang waved his hand, and the elders of the Zhang family understood, grabbed the vines, and climbed towards the cave on the mountain wall, and the last one was Zhang Wuliang.
