"Third brother, what have you been busy with lately?"

On this day, Chen Xiong returned home from school, and rushed to the courtyard where Chen Ying lived as soon as possible, and when he saw Chen Ying, he hurriedly leaned over and asked, "Why don't you come to the academy to see me?" ”

"You kid isn't studying in the academy, what's there to see?"

Chen Ying sat on the chair and didn't get up, and said with a smile: "I've been building a manor recently, and I'm very busy!" ”

"Build a manor?"

Chen Xiong's eyes lit up, and he shouted, "Where is it, why didn't I hear the wind?" ”

"On the edge of the edge of the Great Snow Mountain, in an inconspicuous valley!"

Chen Ying said with a smile: "There are a lot of jackals, tigers and leopards there, you kid has passed, I'm afraid it's not dangerous!" ”

"Afraid of what?"

Chen Xiong's face was still a little chubby, full of pride: "I am now an acquired master who has penetrated the twelve serious ones!" ”

As he spoke, he turned his palm into a knife and swung it in the air, and suddenly a fierce energy roared.

However, it dissipated clean after only half a foot away from the body, and it was obvious that the cultivation in the acquired realm was insufficient, and it still needed to be improved.

"It's still a little close, but it's enough to walk outside!"

With a smile, Chen Ying said leisurely: "You kid is almost fifteen, have you thought about any plans for the future?" ”

"Listen to my mother, you want me to go to my uncle's house to continue cultivating!"

Chen Xiong pouted and said, "But I don't want to go!" ”

"Why?"

"My father will be at home all year round, and I can always ask my father for advice!"

"I'm afraid that my father can't look down on your kid's strength!"

"So I have to continue to work hard, and my little uncle also said that I am poor in heart now, and I must walk more outside!"

"If you kid don't have any good places to go, then come to my manor, anyway, there will be no shortage of opportunities to fight!"

"Okay, I'm afraid my mother won't agree then!"

"Then you go to your father's to ask for permission, and you will definitely succeed!"

Sending away the half-grown young man Chen Xiong, Chen Ying squinted his eyes and continued to rest.

It's been a busy time lately, and now that the Vale Manor is on track, all it takes is to go over from time to time to glance and point out what is not being built right.

Of course, as an organ manor, many organs need to be arranged by Chen Ying personally, and there is not much leisure effort.

After dinner, after leaving the main courtyard, he did not return to the small courtyard where he lived, but went directly to the public library.

Now, he didn't need to cover it up with the help of the maid's reading, he went directly to the library, found the books he hadn't read and looked at them one by one.

I didn't seek to understand too much, I memorized the content of the book firmly first, and then slowly pondered it later.

By the time the lights were about to go out, he had memorized almost a hundred books, and his memory was terrifyingly strong.

But in the eyes of the guards guarding the library, his behavior had the meaning of being vassally elegant, and he didn't look down on him at all.

Chen Ying naturally felt the disapproval of the guards in the library building, but he didn't care much about it, and left with Shi Shiran, the maid who had changed Li's mother.

There are a lot of books in the public library, especially the miscellaneous books on the first and second floors, which are very helpful for him to broaden his horizons and enhance his knowledge and experience.

Chen Ying's plan to build a manor was also found in the public library.

He planned to memorize all the books in the public library building, and write them down silently when he had time and free time in the future, as one of the foundations of the manor.

As for the high-end martial arts books on the third floor of the public library building, he is not qualified to read them at will at the moment, but it will not be a problem until he is eighteen years old.

The so-called high-end martial arts books here are all in the inner boxing lineage, and there are some peculiar outer martial arts, and there is no true qi or internal force cultivation method.

Even after entering the era of true qi, the family and Gaomen still firmly control the mainstream resources of society!

For example, the method of true qi cultivation, the commoners, small landlords and squires outside may be desperate, but in the hands of the high gate and the family, they have a rich collection, and there are all kinds of cultivation methods.

Even in the world of Zhongwu, the family and Gaomen can still occupy a considerable position.

Of course, at that time, the treasures of heaven and earth will emerge in an endless stream, which will give the low-level civilians, as well as small landlords and Haoqiang, many opportunities to get ahead.

Not to mention anything else, the cultivation method of the inner family boxing that can be robbed of the head outside is the collection of the public library in the Zhenbei Gongfu, as long as a certain amount of merit is made, the medium-grade inner family boxing cultivation method is easy to obtain.

It is a high-level inner fist cultivation method, which is not out of reach for the guards in the mansion.

Chen Ying didn't have the idea of changing such a pattern, and he didn't have such strength at this time.

What can be done at present is to work hard to accumulate enough foundation, and wait until the possible day to suddenly explode and become a strong person who can control his own destiny. globe

It's a pity that right now, he can't enter the other two secret library buildings in the mansion, he really wants to see the advanced internal strength cultivation method, can he cultivate the inner fist and true qi at the same time?

Up to now, he only knows that his second brother Chen Wu is practicing the high-end internal martial arts "Shaking Mountain Gong", as for his cheap father Chen Longcheng, what kind of exercises he is practicing, it is not clear.

His mind fluctuated slightly, and he slowly returned to the small courtyard where he lived in the night......

I got up early the next morning, and instead of going to the housewife to have dinner as usual, I went straight out of the mansion to the valley manor under construction.

This is one of the benefits of being able to walk freely after reaching the age of 15.

There is no need to respect the housewife of the mansion too much, and there is no need to be cautious in everything as before, as long as you can get by on face.

At the age of fifteen, he can be regarded as a semi-adult in the Zhenbei Mansion, and he already has the ability and strength, and he has some control over his own freedom.

Chen Ying's performance is not domineering, anyway, it was just a mediocre little transparency in the past, and without him, it would not affect the mood of the housewife of the mansion at all.

At the moment, he is still a little transparent in the mansion, but he can enter and leave the mansion freely.

Of course, you have to go home honestly every evening, after all, you are not really an adult, and you are not allowed to spend the night outside.

Chen Ying is not dissatisfied, the rules of the public mansion are chains, but they are also a powerful protection, at least they can protect themselves from external threats until they become adults.

Out of the city, hurry up and rush to the valley manor......

By the time we got to the place, it was already busy.

"Third Young Master, you're here!"

A retired small leader of the border army who was in charge of the construction of the manor, Baba ran over to say hello, and at the same time did not forget to report the construction information of the manor.

According to the drawings, the manor was already two-thirds of the building completed by this time.

I have to say that the hired cadres of the young people in the north are very powerful, and Chen Ying only paid a little money and food, they were in full swing cutting trees and digging stones, and there was no sign of laziness at all.

"Not bad, keep up the good work!"

Looking at the manor that was about to take shape, Chen Ying deliberately walked around, nodded with satisfaction and smiled: "Once the manor is completed, you can establish a foothold here!" ”

After all, it is the edge of the Great Snow Mountain, and there are still fierce beasts in the mountains from time to time, if there is no solid building defense, how can ordinary people dare to live here?

The so-called manor is actually just a nice way to put it......

In real terms, this newly built manor is actually a small fortress, and its military use is greater than that of people's livelihood.

As he said, in this deserted valley, there is no such a seemingly reliable military building, and it is not expected to attract ordinary people to settle down and live.

The retired small leader of the border army, who was in charge of supervising the work and the security work, nodded again and again, and talked about a dangerous incident that happened yesterday while agreeing.

In the nearby mountains and forests, a leopard appeared at some point, and the mountains and forests on the valley showed traces yesterday.

"It's fast, it's agile and flexible, I'm afraid it's more powerful than ordinary leopards!"

Speaking of this, Zhang San, a retired leader of the border army who was in charge of supervising the work, said with a serious face: "I asked myself if my strength was okay, and it was not a problem to deal with ordinary leopards, but just by glancing at the leopard that showed traces, I couldn't help but panic and weak, and I didn't dare to make any rash moves!" ”

"Be careful, there's nothing wrong with that!"

Chen Ying nodded in appreciation, and said leisurely: "Do you have any bows and arrows in your hands, using that to deter that leopard should have some effect!" ”

"I have some way to get my hands on old bows and arrows that are already used in the army!"

Zhang San didn't shy away from it, and said with a wry smile: "It's just that this needs some money......

"I'm out!"

Chen Ying didn't hesitate, and said directly: "How much can you get?" ”

In fact, he can bring a few good bows from the mansion, even if they are good things in the army, he just thinks there is no need to alarm the princess and the cheap father.

"Five to ten is not a problem!"

Zhang San's eyes flashed, and he smiled: "A bow and arrow with five arrows, a total of five taels of silver!" ”

"Give you fifty taels, buy as much as you want!"

Chen Ying was not stingy, and after giving the silver, he said directly: "If you can hit that leopard, I will buy it at five times the price of the usual leopard!" ”

Zhang San's eyes brightened, and he said directly: "Does the third young master have any specific requirements?" ”

"It's better if I can catch the whole leopard, if not, whether it's muscles, bones, blood or fur, I want it!"

Chen Ying smiled and said: "The price is still the same price, but it depends on the completeness of the leopard, and there are also aspects that can be used up and down!" ”

"That's fair!"

Zhang San said with a smile: "At the moment, the brothers who oversee the work can't move, and they don't have such means and strength, I have to go to other places to invite some retired border army experts to come over!" ”

Chen Ying left satisfied, Zhang San still has some ability, and knows that even if he wants to make extra money, he can't affect the construction of the manor, which is very good.

When leaving the valley where the manor was located, Chen Ying looked back at the lush valley and the mountains connected to the valley, as if he felt an indescribable vitality, as if the entire Great Snow Mountain was about to wake up, and the beasts living here were probably also affected......
