C4 Asked

"Mr. Su, wake up. What happened to you? Wake up!" Su Hao suddenly felt someone shaking his body. He finally woke up from his deep meditation.

Su Hao slowly opened his eyes and saw a delicate pink face less than a foot away from him.

"Ah. . . Mr. Su, you're awake. " He suddenly heard a sharp shout in his ear and his face suddenly jumped up.

"Oh, Yin Shi, why are you here so early in the morning?" Su Hao woke up and found that it was Yin Shi who was standing beside him. He asked curiously.

"Ah, Mr. Su, what happened to you? Are you stupid? Early in the morning? It's almost noon. Yuh Jian and I came to ask you to build a snowman. It snowed a lot yesterday. " Yin Shi said with a pout.

" Ah. " Sure enough, Su Hao found that there were still four people standing in the cottage.

"Haha, is Little Su Hao really cultivating? Is he cultivating in a daze?" Ye Chen said with a greedy look on his face.

"Oh, Su Hao, do you have any skills? Our family does have martial arts. My dad had wanted me to become a martial artist since I was a kid, but I had been training for a while, so I couldn't sense the Heaven Earth Essence Qi, so I didn't want to waste any more time. Learning martial arts is really tiring. " Yuh Jian also followed up.

"He is an orphan. Where did he get the cultivation technique from? It's just that he wants to become a martial artist and wants to go crazy. I say Su Hao, you might as well learn some knowledge in the school. In the future, you can even find a good business. Yin Shi's feelings for you were not in vain. " Yao Qin by the side started to speak with a venomous tongue.

"Yao Qin. . . Why are you always against Mr. Su? If you continue to be like this, we won't be able to be friends anymore in the future. " Yin Shi said unhappily.

"Sigh. Miss Yin, I don't know where you have taken a fancy to this guy. Alright. I won't say anything about him. "

"Hehe, no harm at all. " Su Hao smiled bitterly.

"Eh? Who is this young man?" Apart from Yuh Jian, Ye Chen and Yao Qin, And an 11 or 12 year old boy, This young man was wearing a soft white leather jacket, and there was a blue colored leather belt tied around his waist. He should be a young master from a rich family.

"Oh, this is my cousin, Hsu Rann. He lives in Yunchao County City, and he just came to my house to stay for a few days. If it wasn't for my cousin, I wouldn't have been able to come out today. Father definitely won't let me out in such heavy snow. "

"Daddy only agreed to accompany cousin when cousin spoke. Mr. Su, why don't we go to the foot of Dragon Essence Mountain together? The scenery there is very good. Daddy also sent a carriage over and even called Third Uncle Zuo to help us drive the carriage. "

" Mr. Su, you like to practice martial arts. It just so happens that Third Uncle Zuo is one of the few experts in our family. I heard Father say that he has a late stage Martial Warrior cultivation. Today, you can ask him about martial arts. "

"Really? Are there Warrior Stage warriors with us?" "Before Su Hao could finish his words, a sound came from his stomach.

"Haha! Little Su Hao, your stomach is barking!" Ye Chen teased. Everyone in the room started to laugh. Even Hsu Rann, who was a stranger to them, pursed his lips and smiled.

"Haha, it is already noon. No wonder you are so hungry. You guys wait for a while, I will go get something to eat. " Su Hao got up and went to the kitchen to get some food. After that, the six of them went out together. As expected, there was a carriage parked at the door. In front of the carriage sat a middle-aged man in a tight suit who looked to be in his thirties or forties. He looked very energetic and tall.

"This is Third Uncle Zuo? Yin Shi, are you talking about a warrior in the late stage of the Warrior Realm?" Su Hao asked curiously.

" Yes, Third Uncle. This is the Mr. Su I told you about. He wants to learn martial arts wholeheartedly. You can help him answer whatever he asks you later. " Yin Shi said to the middle-aged man.

"Oh, this little guy wants to learn martial arts? Learning martial arts requires suffering. It's not as simple as you think. Since Miss has already said so, then I'll help you. If you have any questions, ask me later. " The Third Uncle looked at Su Hao, then turned his gaze to Yin Shi, his face full of love.

"That kid thanks Third Uncle. " Su Hao quickly bowed.

"Alright, get in the car and leave. The distance from here to Dragon Essence Mountain is about 20 miles. The carriage will take about an hour. " After that, the six of them got on the carriage in succession. Su Hao did not enter the carriage, but sat outside to accompany Third Uncle Zuo. He indeed had many questions about martial arts that he wanted to answer.

It was too difficult to slowly explore by oneself. Besides, Su Hao was only a ten year old child. Today, he finally met a senior who practiced martial arts. How could he miss it?

It had just snowed, and the weather was exceptionally clear today. The sky was dark blue, and occasionally a few small clouds drifted by. The sun illuminated the earth, and the snow on the ground was particularly dazzling. The carriage was walking on the snowy road, making creaking sounds. Fortunately, there were more pedestrians on the road, and the snow had melted quite a bit. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for the carriage to pass.

"Kid, you don't want to enter the carriage? Aren't you afraid of being frozen?" Third Uncle Zuo saw Su Hao sitting quietly beside him and said with satisfaction.

"Third Uncle, I'm not afraid of the cold. If I can't even endure this bit of hardship, how can I practice martial arts? Can you tell me how an ordinary person can become a martial artist?" After calling him Third Uncle, the relationship between the two became closer. Su Hao then asked what he was thinking.

"Hey, kid, it's very difficult for ordinary people to become martial artists. A martial artist must first cultivate the Genuine Qi, then they must have a cultivation method. This cultivation method is not something that can be done with just a few blade techniques or sword techniques. It is a special cultivation method that is required to cultivate the Genuine Qi. It is the foundation of a martial artist's cultivation. "

"Ordinary people simply can't obtain cultivation methods. These cultivation methods are only in the hands of some martial arts sects, gangs, aristocratic families, and martial arts dojos. Every power will not allow their own cultivation methods to wander outside. If you want to cultivate these cultivation methods, you must join these sects, gangs, or aristocratic families. The dojo needs money, and most martial arts schools only learn the lowest level skills "

"I heard from the head of the family that some of the big cities' shops will occasionally auction some cultivation techniques, and the prices are extraordinarily high. It's not something that ordinary people can afford"

"Even if you have obtained some low-level cultivation techniques, if you want to cultivate them, you have to be successful It's also very difficult. As the saying goes, poor scholars are rich in martial arts. With cultivation techniques, you can cultivate the Genuine Qi every day. The lowest realm is called the Martial Disciple. There are a total of nine levels of the Martial Disciple. Every level requires a warrior to spend two to three years to accumulate the Genuine Qi. "

"This way, it will take twenty to thirty years to reach the ninth level. At old age, he will only be a warrior. I, Third Uncle, am a warrior. I don't know how many warriors there are in the world. Those aristocratic families and sects all have Pill Medicines to eat. A small Pill Medicine is equal to four or five days of meditation. But even the cheapest Qi Transformation Pill costs 20 taels of silver. How can ordinary people afford it?"

"Looks like you're not bad. Since you can endure hardship, you might as well learn how to read and write properly. In the future, I can recommend you to the family head and manage a business. Although our Yin Family isn't a big family, we have quite a few businesses. "

When Su Hao heard Third Uncle Zuo's words, he calculated in his heart. A Qi Transformation Pill was equivalent to four to five days of cultivation. A Martial Disciple required two to three years of cultivation. If he kept consuming these Qi Transformation Pills, he would need at least 200 of them. If he were to exchange them for 4000 silver taels, he would need more than 30,000 silver taels to cultivate all the way to the level of a warrior. He had exactly 30,000 silver taels on him.

Therefore, he began to encourage himself in his heart. He felt that he would definitely be able to enter the door of becoming a warrior, but he didn't listen to what Third Uncle Zuo said at all.

"If Mr. Su really wants to learn martial arts, I can help him. Our Hsu family is also a Martial Dao family in the Yunchao County. Every year, we recruit some disciples from the outside world. Although not every disciple has a Pill Medicine to consume, it is still much better than those rogue cultivators. " Young Master Hsu Rann, who was in the carriage, heard their conversation and said.

"Young Master Xu is willing to bring this child into the Hsu family?" Third Uncle said in surprise.

"I see that this little brother has a deep relationship with my cousin. Helping him is also helping my cousin. What do you think, cousin?"

"Ah, cousin, can you bring Mr. Su to County City to practice martial arts?"

"Thank you, Young Master Xu. What do the disciples of the Hsu family need to do?" Su Hao didn't forget the fact that he could obtain cultivation techniques and martial skills if he joined an aristocratic family. He could even get money and Pill Medicines as subsidies, but the aristocratic family must have some requirements for these disciples.

"A disciple of our Hsu family at your age doesn't need to do anything. When he grows up, he will become a guard of the Hsu family and listen to the orders of the higher ups. Those with a high cultivation base can even become an elder. Even if the elder's surname isn't Xu, he still has a lot of power. "

"Oh, I'm still young, I only wish to practice martial arts. I don't want to join any aristocratic family. Please forgive me, Young Master Xu. " Su Hao thought for a while and said.

"It doesn't matter. Hsu family will recruit a lot of disciples every year. I only wanted to help you because I saw that you really wanted to learn martial arts. My talent is limited, so it's very difficult for me to sense the Heaven Earth Essence Qi. I don't practice martial arts, and I don't like to practice martial arts either. I might as well be an ordinary person and live freely. " Hsu Rann sighed with emotion.

When the others heard what Su Hao said, they were all very surprised. The few people in the carriage looked at each other in dismay. They all knew Hsu Rann's family background. He was a direct descendant of the Hsu family of the three great Martial Dao family in Yunchao County. Although he didn't practice martial arts, no one looked down on him. At this moment, even Yao Qin, who usually didn't like Su Hao, didn't retort.

Even the Third Uncle of the Left never thought that Su Hao, such a young child, would be able to withstand such temptation. If Hsu Rann brought him back to the Hsu family now, he would agree without hesitation. However, Su Hao, this ten-year-old child, refused. He couldn't imagine how Su Hao could be so determined.

"Haha, good kid. I didn't expect you to be able to withstand such temptation, but you have given up this opportunity. It will be extremely difficult for you to learn martial arts again. " Third Uncle Zuo said loudly.

"Third Uncle, I heard that when I first started cultivating. . . It was very difficult to sense Heaven Earth Essence Qis, so you can tell me. How should I sense the Heaven Earth Essence Qi? What exactly is this Heaven Earth Essence Qi? " Su Hao was not confused. He quickly asked the question that he had been thinking about. He had been searching for a long time and could not find the answer. At this time, he could ask a true martial artist for guidance. Of course, he would not give up.

"Kid, this question of yours has stumped me. What exactly is a Heaven Earth Essence Qi? I think most of the martial artists don't know. Even the master of a martial master wouldn't be able to explain it. Even martial artists who had a higher cultivation than a martial master might not know that the Heaven Earth Essence Qi was colorless and odorless. It was invisible and intangible, invisible and untouchable. The body could not feel it, nor could it explain what it was. My understanding is that it should be a mass of air that is drifting in every corner of the world, possessing enormous energy"

"As for the perception of the Heaven Earth Essence Qi, it depends on one's aptitude. Martial arts and cultivation techniques are said to allow one's soul to perceive it, but we don't know what the soul is. Everyone who has just started cultivating is meditating, allowing their soul to be empty, and silently using their thoughts to sense it. "

"I remember when I was eight years old, the old patriarch chose ten children to cultivate in the Yin Family. At that time, he would tell us about the Heaven Earth Essence Qi he sensed every ten days. Even so, he would tell us about it every ten days. Only four months later did someone sense the Heaven Earth Essence Qis. At that time, Second Young Master was the first to sense the Hsu families. Later, he went to the Hsu family. He had joined the Tiger Army of Great Wan Empire. Now, his cultivation base was already at the Xiantian realm. "

"Uncle Zuo is talking about Uncle Ze? My grandfather said that Uncle Ze is a genius. " Hsu Rann continued.

" That's right. Second Young Master has extraordinary talent. Even the patriarch couldn't compare with him. It took him five months to sense the Heaven Earth Essence Qi. Initially, I didn't know when I would be able to cross that threshold with my talent. Who knew that a martial master from the Hsu family would come? He was prepared to bring Second Young Master to the Hsu family. This martial master was also a martial arts fanatic. After meeting the old patriarch, he insisted on having a competition. "

"The duel between the two martial masters has caused a huge commotion. They can already separate their Genuine Qi from their bodies. They can drive the surrounding Heaven Earth Essence Qis. While they were competing, I was meditating in my room when I suddenly felt a gentle breeze blowing against my face. Under normal circumstances, wind would not be able to blow into the house. However, the Heaven Earth Essence Qi was different. All the buildings didn't pose any hindrance to them. At that time, I had an idea. I used my heart to feel the gentle breeze. Finally, I discovered that there were many objects that were filled with energy around my body. I could faintly feel that these substances could bring me energy. Thus, I used a cultivation method to draw them into my body, and from then on, I became a martial artist "
