Yongcheng is a city located in the west of New Tang Dynasty, about three to four hundred miles away from Chang'an. After leaving Yongcheng and walking eastward along the Wei River, you can reach Chang'an, the prosperous capital of Tang Dynasty, in a few days.

A carriage was on the road to Yongcheng, walking leisurely.

Sitting on the edge of the carriage were Yi Hongyan and Mr. Tsing Yi. Yi Hongyan was driving forward with a riding whip, while Mr. Tsing Yi was holding a book in his hand, ignoring the bumps in the carriage and looking attentively. Inside the carriage, there were

Sitting there were three people, Yingping, brother and sister, and Ye Changshan.

It turned out that this group of people left Panxian Village and walked all the way to the northeast, planning to stop at Yongcheng first. After arriving at Yongcheng, they could reach Chang'an in at most two days.

Along the way, Ye Changshan felt novel. After all, he had only been to a small town as far as he could before. So from time to time, he opened the car curtain and looked out the window to experience this unheard of "flowery world".

However, Yingping changed from his usual lively and active nature. He was surprisingly quiet since he got into the car. He spent most of the time in a daze, and sometimes even grinned. Looking at his brother's silly look, Yiyi was a little worried.

Will my brother become a fool once he joins a poor family?

Just when Yiyi was extremely worried, Yingping suddenly patted Ye Changshan and said -

"Hey, Changshan, do you think this humble family really has such great magic power? It attracts people from all over the Central Plains, regardless of gender, old or young, even cutting off their heads to squeeze in."

Ye Changshan couldn't help but feel speechless, thinking, isn't this nonsense? Look at how happy you are. Why do you ask such childish questions?

Although Ye Changshan felt funny in his heart, he still answered seriously and said: "That's natural. Even a country boy like me has heard about the deeds of poor families, let alone those literati and knights."

"Hmm... That's true. After all, the leader of the Han Clan is a genius who is only seen once in a thousand years, maybe even more than once in a thousand years. I think there will only be one like him in the history of the world!"

Ye Changshan ignored the proud Yingping and continued to admire the scenery outside the window.

Seeing that the chat ended with him, Yingping said again: "Hey! Have you heard of it? Some admirers from poor families couldn't get into the family after taking the cold exam five times in a row. Many people are still persevering this year.

, and even ran to take the test.”

"This spirit is also admirable." Ye Changshan responded without looking back.

"Admiration? I think you are stupid. You don't know how much you weigh. You will know how much you are after taking the cold test once. Are you still trying to pass it by chance? You don't want to look at who has passed the cold test!"

"Who?"

"Of course he is one of the most favored people in the world, like me!" Yingping boasted with one hand on his waist and the thumb of the other pointing at himself. Then, he said with a smile: "Hey! Long gown.

,you say

The master of the sect is such a heroic figure, so he definitely wouldn't accept me as his disciple just because of my father's face, right? Hey! I must have some qualities in me that made him think I was a malleable material, so he made an exception and accepted me.

As a disciple, right?"

Traits? I'm afraid you don't have any traits other than your mysterious self-confidence, right?

Ye Changshan said amusedly, but before he could speak, he heard Yiyi say——

"Brother, you are bragging again!"

Although Yiyi is not sensible, as long as she sees Yingping's habitual arrogant smile, she will know that her brother is bragging.

"Go, go, go, what do children know?" Seeing his sister's fault, Yingping couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed, and imitated the uprising father's daily prevarication between them. Then, he found another topic to change the conversation,

road--

"Changshan, who do you think my biological father is?"

How could Ye Changshan know? He could only make a random guess: "I don't know, maybe he is a senior official in Chang'an."

"Well...it's very possible..."

Yingping touched his chin with his hand and thought. Then, his eyes suddenly narrowed into a thin slit, as if he had discovered something extraordinary, and said mysteriously to Ye Changshan -

"Could it be...could it be that my biological father...is the leader of the Han Clan!?"

'hiss--'

The horse pulling the carriage suddenly stopped as if encountering some resistance, and neighed from its mouth. At the same time, the carriage also suddenly stopped. The three people in the carriage were caught off guard by this sudden situation, and they fell on the carriage one after another.

Inside.

After a while, Yi Hongyan pulled up the curtain and said seriously: "What do children know? What nonsense are you talking about here!"

After saying this, he dropped the curtain and went to comfort the frightened horse.

Ye Changshan and the other three were confused and didn't know what happened, so they had to get up and sit down, waiting for the carriage to get back on the road.

At this time, Yingping was also much more awake. He straightened out his somewhat messy clothes and said to Ye Changshan: "It is said that the catastrophe was caused by the sect master leading the Central Plains countries to drive away the barbarians. So...

He is nearly two hundred years old, so it is impossible for him to be..."

"Cough! Cough!"

Yi Hongyan's voice clearing his throat came from outside the curtain. After hearing this, Yingping shut up obediently.

After a while, Yingping suddenly poked his head out of the car and looked up and down at the young man in Tsing Yi who was concentrating on reading a book. The young man didn’t know whether he was looking too seriously and didn’t notice Yingping who just stuck his head out or didn’t look at him at all.

I didn't want to pay attention to him and continued to read the book in my hand.

"This... um... what should I call you?"

Because the young man in green never introduced himself, and his adoptive father never mentioned his identity, Yingping was never sure how to call him.

The young master in Tsing Yi seemed to be too engrossed in watching Yingping's words and did not respond to Yingping's questions.

However, Yingping was thick-skinned, and he didn't take it seriously when faced with the silence of Young Master Tsing Yi. Instead, he said with a smile: "Brother! How about I call you eldest brother? You're not much older than me anyway."

The young man in Tsing Yi still didn't take his eyes off the book in his hand, as if the book in his hand had great appeal.

Yingping finally felt a little embarrassed, but he still didn't want to shut up, and continued shamelessly: "Brother, let me ask you, you are from Chang'an, you must know the situation there better than me. Hehe, this... this poor family

Among them, which senior brother is the most powerful?

Seeing Yingping asking about the poor family, Mr. Qingyi finally responded. He flipped through the book and asked: "What are you referring to?"

"Of course it refers to the cultivation aspect!" Seeing Master Qingyi finally speak, Yingping suddenly got more energy and asked while the iron was hot.

'Cultivation' in the Central Plains generally refers to martial arts practice, and a practitioner refers to a person who practices martial arts. For thousands of years, the Central Plains has been in a chaotic state of disputes between countries and heroes vying for the throne. In this environment, martial arts practice naturally flourishes. Martial arts practice does not

It's just about cultivating the body and practicing some external kung fu, but it's about 'cultivating both internal and external'. What does it mean to cultivate both internal and external? 'External' is easy to understand, it means physique, body,'

Nei' refers to "internal force". Practitioners feel the aura of the sun and the moon between the heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, absorb the essence of heaven and earth, and cultivate the abundant natural energy in the world into the body, sinking in the Dantian, which becomes "internal force".

Practitioners call this "internal power" the "breath of heaven and earth." The internal power cultivated in the "inside" is passed through the body and the "outside" of the body is released. This is what makes a practitioner stronger than ordinary people.

Hearing this question, the young master in Qingyi put down the book in his hand. He propped up his elbows and rested his chin, frowning slightly, as if he was deep in thought. After an all-round comparison, he said solemnly: "If we talk about a poor family,

The most powerful person in cultivation...should still be...well...the third child."

Young Master Tsing Yi's tone showed a trace of uncertainty, but Yingping didn't care so much, and asked curiously: "What is this third senior brother capable of?"

Seeing him asking this question, Young Master Qingyi simply closed the book and introduced this third senior brother with a serious face. He said: "In terms of talent, this third senior brother is indeed a 'natural talent', even at such a young age.

Tianji Dian

He is a strong man in the peak realm. What is even more amazing is that he has only been in martial arts for ten years. This third senior brother started practicing at the age of ten and entered the Kaiyang realm within a year. At the age of fourteen, he defeated Xiaoman, Jingzhe, and Da

Complete the three realms, this practice

His speed was unprecedented, and he entered the Tianji realm at the age of twenty. Then, at the age of twenty-one, he created his own "Yang and Sword Technique" and became unrivaled in the world. In just ten years, he

Thousands of practitioners will be

He has completed a journey that even his disciples have never been able to complete. He is so amazing and talented, which makes people marvel. Today, this third senior brother has achieved great success in the Tianji realm. In time, he will definitely enter the Tianshu realm, become a great master, and be proud of the heroes of the world.

.”

"Twenty years old? Great achievement in Tianji Realm?" Yingping didn't seem to believe his ears.

Practitioners in the Central Plains divide the realms of martial arts into six categories - Kaiyang, Xiaoman, Jingzhe, Daman, Tianji, and Tianshu. The entry-level realm is called the "Kaiyang" realm, followed by the "Xiaoman" realm, and then

The top is the three realms of "Jingzhe", "Daman" and "Tianji".

Duanze is the "Tianshu" realm that all practitioners in the world aspire to. In martial arts, if you get "Kaiyang", you are considered a "practitioner", and "Xiaoman" means a little success. If you reach "

"Jingzhe" can enter the palace and become a guard beside the emperor. If you reach the "Great Man" state,

The world can establish a sect. And the strong people in the "Tianji" realm are very rare. The number of Tianji strong people can even directly determine the strength of a country, which can also see its preciousness. As for "

Tianshu" realm. If you reach this realm, you can be respected as a great master.

.According to legend, there have been no more than a dozen great masters in the Central Plains who have entered the Tianshu realm for thousands of years. Today, there are only three masters in the world: the Master of the Han Clan, the Master of the Caotang Hall, and the Master of the Yunyue Pavilion. Therefore, it is no wonder that Yingping listened.

It would be incredible to say that the third senior brother from a poor family entered Tianji at the age of twenty -

It’s amazing that there really are such talented people in this world!

Yingping was shocked by the deeds of these three senior brothers and could not speak for a long time. Seeing this, Master Qingyi paid no attention to it and picked up the book again to concentrate on reading.

Yingping finally recovered from his surprise. Then he put on the smiling look before, licking his face and asked: "Hey! Brother, look at me... Hey! Can you become the third senior brother in the future?"

What realm?"

After saying that, Yingping's eyes widened and he looked at the young man in green with expectation.

The young master in Tsing Yi did not put down the book in his hand. He just glanced at Yingping sideways, then moved his eyes back to the book and softly uttered two words——

"cannot."

Yingping was startled, and then asked reluctantly: "Then if I forget about food and sleep, and practice hard, can I achieve it?"

The young man in green glanced at him again, then shook his head.

"Then...it doesn't matter if it's later! Thirty years old? Forty years old? Or...fifty is fine!"

The young man in green seemed to be a little impatient. He turned his back to him and went to study by himself.

When Yingping saw this, he didn't feel like asking any more questions. He lowered his head and returned to the carriage and stopped talking.
