To be honest, luck was something that couldn't be seen or touched. Even if one really encountered a bit of bad luck, he would only realize it after suffering a lot. Therefore, Xu Yong's conclusion was that when traveling in Jianghu, one must be cautious, cautious, and cautious. Another thing was not to take oneself too seriously. Don't think that just because one had some martial arts and a good family background, it was amazing.
There would always be someone better than you. The world was just too big, and no one could truly do as they pleased.
"Teacher, do you know how to refine magic weapons?"
Riding on the horse, Junior Leopard asked. After knowing Xu Yong's real purpose of coming to Ningzhou City, he couldn't help but be curious. His teacher was indeed a forging master, but refining magic weapons and forging were two completely different things.
"I only know some ways to forge wizard weapons!" Xu Yong said, "There are many ways to forge wizard weapons. What I know is passed down by the Wu Family. It can be considered a method, but it's not brilliant. If there are suitable materials and Evil Qi, with this method, it is possible to forge a good wizard weapon. However, materials are hard to find, and Evil Qi is also hard to find. I only know the method, but I don't have the chance to forge one. I originally thought that this time my wish would come true.
Unexpectedly … "Speaking of this, Xu Yong stopped, and a bitter smile floated on his face.
"Teacher, don't be discouraged. There will always be a chance!" Junior Leopard comforted him. As for whether there were really other opportunities, only God knew.
Xu Yong obviously heard that Junior Leopard was comforting him, so he didn't pursue it. "Well, don't say so much. Go back to the Wu Family first. Your injury hasn't fully recovered, and you still need some time to recuperate!" Speaking of this, he seemed to think of something and suddenly asked, "Junior Leopard, this time when you go back, what plans do you have?"
Plans?
Junior Leopard was stunned by his question. He didn't understand what he was talking about. ,
"You are now considered a millionaire. Although you are not very rich, you can still buy some property in Qinlingjun City!" Xu Yong said lightly.
After hearing what he said, Junior Leopard suddenly understood.
This time, Xu Yong did not gain anything, but Junior Leopard's harvest was not small.
Because he was injured when he was at the Wen Family, Wen Huayang felt very apologetic. Not only did he provide a large amount of elixirs to heal Junior Leopard's injuries when he was recuperating in the Wen Family, he also gave Junior Leopard 50,000 taels of silver notes before he left.
Junior Leopard didn't dare to accept it, but he didn't expect Xu Yong to help him accept it.
Although he was puzzled, it was not appropriate for him to ask. Now that Xu Yong suddenly said this, Junior Leopard did not know how to answer.
Seeing Junior Leopard's appearance, Xu Yong laughed, "Junior Leopard, you're already 12 years old. Even though you're not that old, you still need to plan for yourself. 50,000 taels of silver isn't much, but it's enough to buy a family business in Qinlingjun City!
Family business?
Junior Leopard had never thought of these things.
In his previous life, he was born under the red flag, grew up under the red flag, and was also a civil servant. The so-called family business was just a house and a car. In this world, he was born in a mountain village. For the past few years, he only wanted to have enough food and clothing. Later on, he learned martial arts. In his heart, he only wanted to practice martial arts well. As for family business, it seemed to be a very distant word!
"Even though you're an Inner Core Disciple of the Wu Family, you only get that much monthly allowance every month. When will you be able to marry a wife? Even if you take on the family's mission, with your current age, it's impossible to take on a mission with a high reward. It's better to buy a family business outside. In the future, you'll have a way out! "
"This —!"
Junior Leopard looked at Xu Yong blankly. He really couldn't react. In the legends, weren't the people of Jianghu living everywhere as their home?
How could he think about buying a family business and living a simple life with just 50,000 taels of silver?
Seeing Junior Leopard's puzzled expression, Xu Yong suddenly laughed. He pointed at Junior Leopard and jokingly scolded, "You little brat, have you read too many stories in teahouses and lost your sense of direction? Are the people of Wulin and Jianghu really like what the storytellers say, running all over the world all day long, eating meat and drinking wine? "
Junior Leopard was a little embarrassed by what he said.
"This world is like a big sea of bitterness. We are all drowning in the sea of bitterness. The difference is that some people are on the ship, while others are floating in the sea. The ship is the influence. Some are big and some are small, so the ship naturally has big and some are small. For example, the current Great Jin Imperial Family is one of the biggest ships in the sea of bitterness. There are also Tian Long Taoism, Mingyi School and those millennium-old families. These are all big ships. Our Wu Family is also a ship. We are all on this ship and have temporarily escaped from the sea of bitterness. But what if one day this ship sinks, or you need to leave this big ship to do your own things? Otherwise, you can only be like those people in Jianghu, drifting with the current and adapting to circumstances. That's not good, it's too risky. Unless your strength can reach the level of the black-robed man that night, the Tendon-Changing Realm. When you reach that level of strength, you won't be able to escape from the sea of bitterness, but at least you'll have the capital to swim in the sea of bitterness. However, how many people in this world can reach the Tendon-Changing Realm? Junior Leopard, listen to me. While you're still young and still have capital, build a ship for yourself. It doesn't need to be too big, as long as it's sturdy! "
"I've learned something!"
"Don't say anything about learning. I'm your teacher. Naturally, I'll tell you some things you should know!" Xu Yong said with a smile, "You're my disciple. For people like us in the martial arts world, once we have some achievements, we'll want to find a suitable successor and pass on what we've learned in our lifetime. It's just like how people want to have sons to pass on their family's incense. The purpose is just to pass on!"
Speaking of this, he sighed lightly, "Junior Leopard, your aptitude is excellent and your temperament is good. When you practice, you're also very hardworking. Your progress is also very obvious. However, I want to ask you something. Do you really think you can break through the Bone-Forging Realm and step into the Tendon-Changing Realm in this lifetime?"
"This?!" Junior Leopard didn't know how to answer.
In his heart, he had never doubted this point. What he got from Xue Wuya was not only benefits, but also incomparable confidence.
Moreover, he still had those few prescriptions of elixirs. It could be said that in his opinion, reaching the Tendon-Changing Realm was simply a matter of course.
"Actually, I also understand what you're thinking. When people in the martial arts world are at your age, they all have all kinds of fantasies. In their imagination, the Tendon-Changing Realm is just a stepping stone. If they're given a chance, they can even practice to the Mysterious Realm. Hehe, thinking back to that time, when I was about the same age as you, I also thought so. However, you see, there are so many people in Jianghu in this world, but how many of them can really reach the Tendon-Changing Realm? Apart from those truly amazing and outstanding people, the real role of the majority of people in the martial arts world is just to pass on! "
"Pass on?!"
"Yes, pass on. It's really too difficult to practice to the Tendon-Changing Realm. Let's not talk about other things. The medicinal soup used for cleansing is not something that ordinary people can get. Even in the Wu's, only those few boys of the Old Wu's have the conditions to use the medicinal soup to cleanse their whole body every once in a while to strengthen their body. Core and Inner Core Disciples like you can at most only get enough medicinal soup when there's an opportunity. However, using medicinal soup to cleanse your body only once or twice won't have any effect. You need to persevere. Therefore, if there's no special opportunity, among your batch of core disciples, the only one who can reach the Tendon-Changing Realm is the Second Young Master!"
Second Young Master!
Junior Leopard thought of the handsome but slightly frail figure, the youth who worshipped Wang She as a disciple.
"Therefore, I don't have high requirements for you. As long as you can break through the Bone-Forging Realm and obtain the title of an Elder, then my bloodline in the Wu's will not be cut off. That's enough!"
Junior Leopard was speechless. After thinking about it carefully, he understood. It was indeed reasonable. There were thousands of people in the Jianghu. How could everyone reach the Tendon-Changing Realm?
Look at a big influence like the Wu's. There was only one Tendon-Changing Realm Elder in charge. After one's cultivation entered the Bone-Forging Realm, one could become an Elder. From this, it could be seen.
Of course, Xu Yong didn't know about Junior Leopard's previous experience. He also didn't know that Junior Leopard had a few kinds of weird elixir prescriptions. If not, he would definitely not say that.
Junior Leopard of course wouldn't tell others about the elixir prescriptions.
"Teacher, what about the External Elixir? If one can practice the External Elixir, even if the body's strength can't reach the requirements of the Tendon-Changing Realm, the cultivation of Internal Qi can also increase, right?!"
"External Elixir?!" Xu Yong looked at Junior Leopard strangely, "Boy, are you still thinking about the First Elder's Fiery Eyes? You have to understand that the materials to refine the External Elixir are much harder to find than the medicinal herbs to wash the body. Moreover, even if you have the right materials, without the right refining method, it's useless. The External Elixir isn't the human body. Refining the External Elixir requires a special cultivation method. This method doesn't exist even in the Wu's. Only the big sects like Tian Long Taoism have it. So, you still have to think about it!"
"I'm just asking, just asking!" Junior Leopard said embarrassedly. But in his heart, he was thinking.
If the Wu's didn't have it, it didn't matter. Tian Long Taoism had it.
Anyway, he had some entanglements with Tian Long Taoism. Not to mention Wang She, there was another Chief, Lei Xu. It seemed that he had enough reasons to go to Tian Long Taoism to find him.
Similarly, this kind of idea could only be suppressed in the depths of his heart. The things involved in the matter between Ma Linglong and Lei Xu were simply beyond his imagination. So, whether to go to Tian Long Taoism to help Ma Linglong or not, this was not something he could decide.
A few days later, the teacher and the disciple returned to the Wu's Main Residence in Qinlingjun City. As soon as they entered the old residence, Xu Yong was invited by the Family Head and several Elders to discuss matters. As for Junior Leopard, he returned to the small courtyard and began to think about everything that Xu Yong had told him.
"What teacher said is really reasonable. This isn't a novel, this is the real world. No matter who, if he wants to live a better life in this world, he needs money. Old Wen is also a straightforward person. He gave me 50,000 taels of silver just because I was slightly injured in his home. Even though it's very generous, it also shows that 50,000 taels of silver is actually nothing in a family like theirs. The Wen's is just a small family that dominates Ningzhou City. So, what kind of strength do those big families have?!"
