Chapter 718: Marriage between close relatives
"This kid can enter the dark energy, and it's not all borrowed from your old light!"
Qin Feng was afraid that Zhang Hu would say the wrong thing, so he hurriedly bowed his waist with a smile and said, "When you came out yesterday, I felt like a real dragon pressing the top, and when I returned home, Huzi broke through. ”
Qin Feng was originally born as a small person, and he has been asking for food for so many years, so it is nothing to lower his figure, and his smiling appearance is not much different from the shopkeeper in the wine shop here.
"Huh? Let him say it himself......"
Lu Fenglei glanced at Qin Feng, although Qin Feng's state had also touched the threshold of Mingjin, but he was already in his twenties at this time, and his qualifications were far from this person named Zhang Hu.
"I don't know how to break through!"
After being touched by Qin Feng, Zheng Hu said angrily: "When you came out yesterday, I felt a force pressing me and almost fell to my knees. ”
As early as last night, Qin Feng taught Zhang Hu how to speak, and after he said this, Lu Fenglei nodded slightly, he also remembered that this kid seemed to resist yesterday.
Those who practice martial arts must first have a heart of martial arts, and must not be afraid of difficulties, power, and survival in adversity, so as to get the heart of a martial artist.
Like Qin Feng's performance of being frightened yesterday, in Lu Fenglei's eyes, it is rotten wood that cannot be carved, even if he has good qualifications, he can't go further in the martial arts.
On the contrary, Zhang Hu is a very good kid, and the stubbornness of the countrymen has been used by him in martial arts, if he can maintain it, his future achievements are limitless.
Thinking of this, Lu Fenglei couldn't help but feel a little moved by the idea of accepting apprentices, because he had never seen anyone who broke through to Mingjin at the age of thirteen or fourteen. Even among the five major clans with deep heritage, they are extremely rare.
"Little one, who else is there in your house?" Lu Fenglei changed his previous arrogant demeanor and asked with a pleasant face.
"I ...... I have a younger sister at home, and a grandfather......"
Hearing Lu Fenglei ask about the situation at home, Zhang Hu couldn't help but panic. He knew that this person in front of him had a lot of connections with his grandfather, for fear that he would see something.
"Oh? What about your parents? ”
Lu Fenglei raised his eyebrows, in fact, he didn't suspect anything, but if he really wanted to accept apprentices, he always had to find out the apprentice's family background, and at the same time, he had to look at the character of this family.
"This senior, my cousin and sister-in-law went to the mountains to hunt for more than ten years, but they couldn't come out, leaving this pair of children."
Seeing Zhang Hu's demeanor, something was wrong. Qin Feng hurriedly interjected: "My uncle raised these two children by himself, and his health has not been very good.
Fortunately, Huzi is angry, see if he can go to the town's martial arts hall as a teacher in the future? and save yourself from suffering in this bitter place......"
"Both parents died, and you grew up with your grandfather?"
After hearing Qin Feng's words, Lu Fenglei's heart suddenly moved, and after thinking for a while, he turned back to Qian Yuandan, who had already come out of the courtyard, and said, "Young master, can you wait a moment." Shall I do something and go into the mountains again? ”
Although Lu Fenglei is the leader of this trip, Qian Yuandan is one of the future heads of the Qian family. In front of Qian Yuandan, Lu Fenglei has never dared to make a mistake, and he will ask for his opinion no matter what happens.
"Lu Lao, please take it, even if you don't go into the mountains today!"
Qian Yuandan smiled and waved his hand, he knew that Lu Fenglei was actually a bodyguard to him. But in the same way, in normal times, Qian Yuandan also gave Lu Fenglei enough respect.
According to the rules of the Qian family, after the person who is qualified to take over the position of the head of the Qian family reaches the year of the weak crown, he must walk the rivers and lakes to increase his experience. And the Qian family has someone who scores and judges these future heirs.
In order to ensure the safety of these heirs, the Qian family will send a master of chemical strength to follow, and Lu Fenglei is now exercising this duty.
"Thank you, young master!"
Lu Fenglei hugged his fists at Qian Yuandan, looked at Zhang Hu with his eyes, and said, "Little guy, your grandfather is not here, call him over, I have something to talk to him about......
"I ...... My grandfather is not here, you ...... What are you doing? Zhang Hu was still young, and when he heard Lu Fenglei mention his grandfather, he suddenly became nervous.
"Not there? What's going on? Don't you have a sister? ”
Hearing Zhang Hu's words, Lu Fenglei frowned, in this space, it is difficult to worship a famous teacher, but if you want to accept a good apprentice, it also takes coincidence.
Generally speaking, if the apprenticeship is successful, the apprentice's family needs to give the master a large thank you gift every year, and this fee will depend on the master's cultivation and reputation in the rivers and lakes.
But if the master chooses the apprentice, the matter will be reversed, because in this case, the master will choose his descendant disciples, and what he teaches will be the secret of the unpassed on.
Therefore, for such apprentices, the master should not only carefully teach his martial arts, but also manage his food and drink, and even when he encounters an apprentice from a relatively poor family, he will also give a helping hand to his family to relieve the disciple's worries.
Lu Fenglei wanted to see Zhang Hu's grandfather, and he just wanted to leave a sum of money, and then take Zhang Hu out of the city, but Zhang Hu's grandfather was not there, which made Lu Fenglei a little embarrassed.
"Senior, my uncle is tired and sick, and his health has not been very good, he went to the mountains yesterday to collect medicine, maybe we can meet it when we go into the mountains."
Qin Feng didn't know what Lu Dao Lu Fenglei was thinking, for fear that he would think of Uncle Zhang because of the surname Zhang, so he hurriedly explained.
"This lord, that's true, I was there when Uncle Zhang entered the mountain yesterday." As soon as Qin Feng's words fell, Yao Er also spoke beside him.
"Oh, I see?"
Lu Fenglei nodded slightly, and said: "I have some medicine here to strengthen the foundation of Peiyuan, go back and leave a few for your grandfather, the general weakness and fatigue can be cured......"
In fact, Qin Feng and Zhang Hu are thinking too much, in addition to the five major clans in this place, there are also a lot of people with the surname Zhang, just in this small mountain village, in addition to Zhang Hu's family, there are two families with the surname Zhang.
So where can Lu Fenglei think of an old opponent for more than ten years because of a surname, and he would actually hide in this ravine?
"Why don't you thank this senior?"
Qin Feng slapped Zhang Hu on the head who was stunned there, he had already seen it. Lu Fenglei took a fancy to Zhang Hu's qualifications and moved his mind to accept apprentices.
"Bold!" Seeing Qin Feng teach Zhang Hu a lesson, Lu Fenglei was suddenly unhappy, and looked at Qin Feng with one look, and a trace of murderous intent overflowed from his body.
"Oops......" Looking at Lu Fenglei's eyes, Qin Feng stumbled under his feet. I almost fell to the ground.
"Is he something you can teach?"
Lu Fenglei thought that he had punished Qin Feng a little, but where did he know that Qin Feng was pretending, that is, he was facing it head-on, and he was afraid that he would be able to retreat if he was not defeated by Lu Fenglei.
"Yes, that's what my predecessor said." Qin Feng hunched his waist and smiled: "The senior is so good to my cousin, don't you ...... I don't know what you think? ”
"I want to take him as an apprentice!"
Seeing that Qin Feng was also Zhang Hu's elder, Lu Fenglei said straight to the point: "Let's go to the mountain first, and wait until we get out of the mountain." I told his grandfather to follow me to the mountains to learn art! ”
"I don't want to, I don't want to leave here......" As soon as he heard Lu Fenglei's words, Zhang Hu suddenly became anxious, he was still a child, he couldn't hold his breath in his heart, and he screamed loudly on the spot.
"You kid knows a fart!"
Qin Feng slapped Zhang Hu's head again and said, "Seniors can look at you." It's your kid's blessing, isn't it fragrant and spicy after following your predecessors? ”
This time, Qin Feng taught Zhang Hu a lesson. Lu Fenglei didn't speak, because he was already a little unhappy in his heart, with his own cultivation and identity, if he released the wind to accept apprentices, I don't know how many people in Lu Dao would squeeze through the door of his home, but this stupid boy was actually not happy.
"Lu Laogong participates in the creation. It is your blessing to take you as an apprentice. ”
Qian Yuandan, who had been watching coldly from the side, opened his mouth and said, in fact, these descendants of the Qian family, the masters they worship are all masters of chemical strength.
Qian Yuandan wanted to worship under Lu Fenglei in his early years, but because Lu Fenglei's kung fu was too yin and did not conform to his character. That's it.
"Let's talk about this later, young master, we can go into the mountain......"
Lu Fenglei flicked his sleeves, with his identity, he naturally wouldn't ask for a child, he just wanted to wait until he went out of the mountain to see the child's grandfather and took the person away.
"Okay, congratulations to Lu Lao!"
Qian Yuan Dan smiled, although he couldn't see Zhang Hu's cultivation realm, but he could make Lu Laotie want to accept apprentices, and his qualifications must be very good.
Lu Fenglei walked to the place where the materials were placed, put the original two loads of things on one load, pointed at Qin Feng and said, "Hey, you pick up that burden ......"
"I ...... I'll pick ...... "Qin Feng didn't expect that there would be such benefits with good qualifications, and he dared to feel sorry for Lu Fenglei, who was already feeling sorry for his apprentice."
However, this load of things was nothing to Qin Feng, so he stepped forward quickly with his head down, carried the load on his shoulder, and gave Zhang Hu a look at the same time.
"Xin'er, are you ready?" Qian Yuandan walked to the front of a room with lights on, and said, "Otherwise, don't go into the mountain, I will handle the ...... of the things you explain."
"Cousin, I'd better go with you!" At the sound of the young lady yesterday, the door opened from the inside, and the maid named Cuckoo walked behind the young lady with a package.
Unlike yesterday, when they wore a skirt, the two women today wore a long coat and trousers, and they also had leggings tied on their calves, which looked very neat.
However, on the young lady's head, as before, she wore a cloak to hide her face.
"Cousin, I won't trouble you!" The young lady named Xin'er was still holding a sheathed sword in her hand, and Qin Feng really had a bit of kung fu when she saw her action with the sword.
Unlike the ancient wisdom of virtue, this space advocates martial arts, even women have been practicing martial arts since childhood, of course, under normal circumstances, they still will not go out to show their heads.
Young Master Ning, who is majestic in the town, is at best an errand runner here, and after seeing everyone coming out, he opened his mouth and said to Yao Er: "Yao Er, let's go, the matter is done, and the young master will be rewarded!" ”
"Hey, let's go!" Yao Er agreed, walked quickly to Qin Feng, and said in a low voice, "Brother He, do you want me to help you share a little?" ”
"Where did all that nonsense come from?"
Young Master Ning glared at Yao Er and said, "Seeing that he is strong, if he can't even pick up this little thing, how can he be worthy of the reward given by the young master?" ”
Yesterday he threw out two stones of grain, and Young Master Ning would still feel distressed.
Originally, Young Master Ning pondered waiting for Qian Yuandan and the others to leave, and then asking for the food stamps back. But seeing that Lu Fenglei had the intention of accepting apprentices, his wishful thinking suddenly turned yellow.
"It's okay, Second Brother Yao, I can do it!" Qin Feng smiled gratefully at Yao Er, and walked out of the courtyard first with the burden.
By this time it was already dawn and the sun was rising from the top of the mountain. The whole mountain village is bathed in sunlight.
There are a few clouds floating in the clear blue sky, which seem to be connected with the mountain in the distance, and it looks magnificent, and the white clouds on the mountainside set it off like a fairyland.
"Damn, what the hell is this place? There's no such good air outside! ”
Taking a deep breath, Qin Feng only felt comfortable, if he hadn't used the Breath Gathering Technique, I am afraid that the true qi in his body would be active.
The small mountain village was originally built against the mountain, and the mountain road is out of the yard. Since Qin Feng couldn't walk fast with things, after starting the trip, Qin Feng walked behind the most.
The few people in front of Qin Feng were all members of the Qian family, and they were more or less carrying some things, and they were about ten meters away from Qian Yuandan and the others in the front.
"Big brothers, haven't you had breakfast yet?"
Qin Feng carried the burden and still had the strength to take out a few pieces of air-dried meat from a package he had brought. said: "Do you want to eat some of the big brothers who made it at home?" ”
"Huh? You're a funny kid! ”
As the saying goes, there are seven officials in front of the prime minister's door. These subordinates of the Qian family are certainly subordinates in front of Qian Yuandan, but when they go outside, they are on an equal footing with Young Master Ning.
A few people who hadn't even looked at Qin Feng saw Qin Feng take out the food, and their eyes when they looked at Qin Feng suddenly softened a little.
"A few big brothers, it's not easy to go out. Big brothers, let's make a little bit, I still have ...... here after eating" Qin Feng handed a few pieces of air-dried meat to a few people, and a smell of meat came to his nose.
"It tastes good, boy, and I have a heart."
Wake up early in the morning. These subordinates only cared about serving Qian Yuandan, and they really hadn't eaten breakfast yet, so they were not polite at the moment, so they took the meat and ate it.
The people who practice martial arts have a lot of food, and the few catties of meat that Qin Feng brought were eaten by a few people in a few moments, but it was these catties of meat that made them change their attitude towards Qin Feng.
"You're thin and weak, you can't see that this strength is quite strong." One person looked at Qin Feng and said with a smile: "If you are bored to say something, my brothers will pick a way for you......"
"Don't bother a few big brothers, the countrymen are used to walking mountain roads, this is nothing." Qin Feng said with a smile: "I haven't asked a few big brothers for their surnames, I don't know what to call them?" ”
"Honorable name? Are you still dragging the text? ”
The man who spoke before laughed and said, "We are all surnamed Qian, my name is Qian Yi, they are called Qian 2, Qian 3 and Qian 4, and when the master does not perform a certain position, they are all called by numbers......"
As the saying goes, if you take someone else's soft hand, eat someone else's short mouth, and just eat Qin Feng's air-dried meat, these people chatted with Qin Feng with a pleasant face.
It turned out that these people had been assigned to serve Qian Yuandan since they were children, and none of them had their own names, and they would only be named after Qian Yuandan opened his door, which was also a reward.
"A few big brothers, why did our young master come out with a female dependent?" Qin Feng continued to get close to a few people, and he was ashamed to classify himself into the Qian family.
"What, our young master, what is your identity?"
After hearing Qin Feng's words, Qian Yi couldn't help frowning, and scolded: "Boy, our trip is to hire you to pick up something, if you know that you are using the identity of the Qian family outside to cheat, be careful of your little life!" ”
The Qian family's cultivation of heirs is not just for them to go to the rivers and lakes.
In the Qian family, there is also an institution that specializes in judging the performance of heirs, and they must be scored from each person's behavior and style evaluation, and even the performance of his subordinates is also within this scoring system.
Therefore, if there is a desire to compete for the heir of the Qian family, His Majesty is very strict, like Qian and a few people outside except for their arrogant attitude, they dare not do those things that bully the market and dominate the market.
"Yes, yes, Brother Qian taught ......"
Qin Feng stumbled under his feet, and said with a frightened face: "Brother Qian, don't I also admire the majesty of several big brothers?" Is there a way for me to follow a few big brothers to serve the young master? ”
Qin Feng's panicked look. It made Qian Yi a little embarrassed, looked at Qin Feng and said, "We have all lived in the Qian family since we were children, so you can think of this idea."
But if your kung fu cultivation can be compared to Lu Lao, maybe you will still have a chance......"
According to Qian Yi, the location of the Qian family's ancestral house is already similar to the palace. There are thousands of people in it alone, and in order to ensure the safety of the family, all the subordinates are basically born to the family.
The so-called family birth is somewhat similar to the rules of the Qing Dynasty in the outside world, that is, the children born to the master's family, the children of domestic slaves, and then continue to serve the next generation.
Although the reputation is a little unpleasant, it is a great blessing to be able to be a subordinate of the five major clans. If you are lucky, you can still release Lu to manage the place, then it is a strong party.
"I see? Hey, it's a pity I don't have this chance......" After hearing Qian Yi's explanation, Qin Feng sighed, revealing a dejected look.
"Not necessarily!" Qian Yi turned his head to look at Qin Feng and said.
"Brother Qian, how do you say that?"
Qin Feng pretended to be overjoyed. said: "If the eldest brothers are willing to bring the younger brothers, the younger brothers will have to repay the eldest brothers for being cattle and horses in the future......"
"We?" Qian Yi smiled self-deprecatingly. said: "We don't have that much face. ”
Pointing to the people walking in front, Qian Yi lowered his voice and said, "Did you see Lu Ye?" If he really accepts your cousin as a disciple, you will have the opportunity to join the Qian family's guards, and maybe you can get ahead one day......"
"Huh? And such a good thing? When I go back, I must persuade Huzi. ”
Qin Feng smiled a little exaggeratedly: "Ha Luha, if you can enter the Qian family." Wouldn't we all be able to walk sideways? When the time comes, the eldest brothers must bring the younger brothers! ”
"Sideways? Beware of bones being torn off! Qian Yi snorted coldly when he heard this, and said: "Boy, you can't learn to be a man with your tail between your legs, even if you enter the Qian family, you won't live long......"
Maybe it's Qin Feng's sycophancy. Unconsciously, a lot of words came out of the mouths of Qian Yi and others, and some of them were outsiders who didn't know the privacy of the Qian family at all.
Whether it is the Qian family, the five major clans have their own armed forces, which are called guards in the major clans, in fact, they can also be called armies.
Unlike the armies outside, the armies of the five major clans are all composed of masters who have reached the level of kung fu, although the number is only five thousand, but if it is against ordinary people, these five thousand people are enough to kill the army of 300,000.
The five major clans invested all their financial resources and energy into the army of five thousand people indefinitely, and according to their agreement, each family could only maintain an army of so many people.
In fact, even without this agreement, it would not be easy for the five major families to maintain an army of five thousand Ming Jin masters.
You must know that in the current outside world, if there is a person who has a bright energy cultivation, he can be called a generation of grandmasters, even before liberation, there are only a handful of people who can enter the dark energy.
Even if this space is at its peak martial arts, it is extremely difficult to recruit so many people, and there are several families in the five major clans, and they can't even reach this number.
However, the strength of this armed force is more just for deterrence, and no family will easily use these forces, because it means the arrival of war.
What really determines the ranking of the five major clans is the Council of Elders composed of all the masters of Transformation outside the military system, and the number and cultivation of the masters of Transformation in the clan is the standard for measuring the strength of this family.
In the battle of the royal capital of that year, the masters of the various clans were almost killed and wounded, that is, in the past few decades, some more appeared, and each of the masters of the transformation has a lofty position in these clans.
Therefore, if Lu Feng Lei Ken opened his mouth, arranging Qin Feng to the guard team would only be a matter of one sentence, and the Qian family in charge of the guard team would definitely give him this face.
As for the identity of the woman with the cloak, she was also quietly revealed by Qin Feng.
It turns out that the five major clans are not as harmonious as outsiders imagine, and some families are even incompatible, but there are those who have poor relationships, and naturally there are also those who have good relationships, such as the Qian family has a good relationship with the Zhao family, and has always maintained the tradition of intermarriage.
This woman's name is Zhao Xin'er, the daughter of the current head of the Zhao family, and she was assigned to Qian Yuandan as her wife when she was just born, and Zhao Xin'er's mother is Qian Yuandan's aunt.
Influenced by the influence of close relatives in ancient times, there is no rule in this space that aunts and cousins cannot get married.
Of course, whether the children born after marriage are more idiots is not enough for outsiders -
