Chapter 9: Literature and Martial Arts
The third day.
With a grimace on his face, Qin Hao took the soup handed over by his maid, gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, held his breath and pinched his nose, and drank the soup in big gulps as if he was ready to die.
After taking the decoction, Qin Hao immediately started to use the internal energy method passed down from his family. After running it for several days, he felt that the internal energy in his body had increased significantly, and he immediately showed a satisfied smile.
The decoction that Qin Hao drank just now is a necessary medicine for building the foundation of martial arts in the early stage. Although he does not know the specific value, looking at the careful look of the little maid for fear of spilling a drop, he knows that it is definitely worth a lot of money.
This kind of foundation-building medicine, even in a large family like the Qin family, only direct descendants are eligible to enjoy it, which shows the value contained in it.
The scholar lived in poverty for ten years, and the martial artist spent one year earning a hundred taels of gold.
Martial arts must be practiced from an early age, and the money spent on internal and external martial arts is simply not something that ordinary people can afford.
Poor people cannot afford to practice internal martial arts. Because they have no money to buy medicinal materials to assist in practicing martial arts, they can only practice external martial arts at most, but it is difficult to reach the top in this way.
The cost of studying is much lower than practicing martial arts, so for the poor, studying is the first choice.
After consuming all the medicinal power in his body, Qin Hao checked his attributes and found that his strength value had increased by 1 point, and his current strength level was 6.
Qin Hao's eyes suddenly became hot when he looked at the soup bowl in his hand, but he also knew that martial arts were gained through practice, and it was impossible to become a truly strong man by taking drugs.
Qin Hao stood up, looked at the little maid beside him, and called out: "Sister Yun'er, take me to the practice ground."
A trace of helplessness flashed across Yoon'er's face. She was just a maid, and the young master called her sister. How could she be a maid? If other young masters heard this, they would scold her.
Although I have told the young master many times, it seems to be of no use at all. The young master seems to be used to it.
Yoona sighed: "Master, please come with me!"
As the first family in Xianyang, the Qin Mansion covers a very large area. Anyway, Qin Hao has not finished visiting the Qin Mansion yet.
After walking behind Yun'er for about fifteen minutes, Qin Hao finally arrived at the martial arts training ground dedicated to the Qin family's disciples.
Qin Hao was dazzled by the eighteen weapons on the training ground, including stone locks of all sizes.
Just after stretching his body, Qin Hao noticed something moving to the east of the martial arts training ground. He walked over and saw that it was Qin Hu, the son of his fourth uncle Qin Jian.
At this time, Qin Hu was holding a long knife, and he was wielding a set of Qin family's sword skills with style. The soup on the stone table was still warm. It was obvious that Qin Hu had just finished drinking the foundation-building soup and immediately Just go in and practice. “Fourth brother, you have good sword skills.” Qin Hao praised while applauding.
As soon as Qin Hu saw that the person coming was Qin Hao, he immediately put away his sword, went up to meet him and said with a smile: "It turns out he is the fifth brother."
Although Qin Hao is the legitimate son of the family, he is not the eldest son. He has four older brothers. The eldest son of Qin is Qin Long, the son of his third uncle Qin Gong. The second oldest son is Qin Tian, the son of his third uncle. The third oldest son is deceased. Qin Zheng, the son of the second uncle Qin Liang, and Qin Hu, the son of the fourth uncle, are the fourth uncle. Although his father Qin Wen is the eldest among the uncles, Qin Hao is the youngest, ranking fifth.
“Fourth brother has already mastered the family swordsmanship to a minor level at a young age. Among all the brothers, fourth brother has the highest martial arts talent!” Qin Hao said with a smile, but he did not mean to flatter him in the slightest.
At only 12 years old, Qin Hu has already mastered the Qin Family Swordsmanship, a set of swordsmanship suitable for battlefield combat. He is indeed a gifted person.
"What the hell, this achievement is far behind that of the fifth brother. I heard that the fifth brother cultivated his internal strength for the first time. I am impressed by the talent of the fourth brother." Qin Hu said seriously, his eyes full of There is envy and admiration, but of course there is also a trace of unwillingness.
I think it took Qin Hu a day to cultivate his internal power, but Qin Hao only used it once. The difference could not be clearer.
"Internal strength only represents internal strength. Battlefield battles rely on external strength. Only strong external strength is truly powerful, so fourth brother does not need to belittle oneself." Qin Hao said with a smile. Qin Hu nodded thoughtfully after hearing this.
Seeing this, Qin Hao pointed to the soup on the stone table and said with a half-smile: "Why is the bowl of soup that Fourth Brother drinks from a small bowl? Is there anyone who dares to deduct Fourth Brother's monthly salary? He must have a good talk with his father. , so unseemly.”
When Qin Hu heard this, he shook his head and waved his hands at Qin Hao and said, "No, no!"
“Oh? Fourth brother, do you have anything to hide?”
Qin Hu was silent for a while, and then said helplessly: "Hey, the foundation-building decoction is very valuable. Even as the fourth brother, I can't drink it every day. But at this critical moment when I am practicing martial arts, the daily supply of the decoction is basically impossible." It’s not enough, so I have to pay for it myself.”
Qin Hao was silent for a while after hearing this. Even if he is a family, there is still a difference in treatment. Although Qin Hu is the son of his fourth uncle, compared to himself, the legitimate son of the young master of the family, the treatment gap is still very big.
“Fourth brother, don’t worry. The decoctions you will use for practicing in the future will be packed with me.” Qin Hao said with a smile.
"real?"
Qin Hu said in surprise, but then he remembered something and his mood suddenly dropped.
"The manager in charge of the warehouse, Sun Guanshi, belongs to Third Uncle. No one can go there unless he has the order from Third Uncle. I have discussed it with him several times, but Sun Guanshi ignored me!"
As soon as Qin Hao heard this, an idea suddenly came to his mind. He had always wanted to test his third uncle, but he had no chance, and now the opportunity came.
