For a Jianghu sect, the elders and elders who are high-end combat power are the foundation of the sect; the growth of other sect disciples is an important factor in determining the rise and fall of the sect.
For a Jianghu sect, the more high-end combat power is naturally the better, but the growth of the new generation of disciples is also very important. If a sect's young disciples have been unable to grow up quickly, then the future prospects of this sect are very worrying. In order to avoid the crisis of being ungrounded, any sect will spare no effort to select talented disciples from all over the place, and then bring them into the mountain gate for key training.
For example, the old poison at the beginning, for the inheritance of the Poison Sect, he also spared no effort to cultivate Qin Lang, hoping that one day Qin Lang could revive the Poison Sect.
As a prestigious branch of the Taoist sect, the Qingcheng sect is naturally unwilling to lag behind in cultivating disciples. However, as far as Qin Lang knows, the standard of material living has been greatly improved, and the degree of hardship and hard work of many people has been greatly reduced. Therefore, although the Qingcheng School will select a lot of martial arts seedlings every year, most of these people cannot persevere. They are all sent down the mountain after learning a little ostentation. There are really very few young people who can truly become inner disciples of the Qingcheng School.
This kind of problem is not only encountered by the Qingcheng faction, almost any sect has encountered the same problem. It's not so much that people nowadays can't bear hardships, it's better to say that the current "martial arts education" is no longer suitable for the development of the times. There is an old saying in China called "teaching students according to their aptitude", which means that different people need different education methods, rather than adopting the same education method for everyone.
Whether it is selecting disciples or training disciples, today's Jianghu sects almost maintain the old rules and methods of hundreds of years ago. It is natural that these methods are used to seduce those former disciples who are simple-minded and have low material desires, but It will not work at all if it is used on these people now. Nowadays, if you let him start practicing martial arts, he will only stick to his horse for two or three years, which is simply impossible! They would rather learn some taekwondo and karate tricks than spend two years on horseback riding.
If it hadn't been forced by the old poison at the beginning, Qin Lang would not have spent so long practicing Fulong Zhuang, but now Qin Lang understands that it was not wrong to spend time practicing Fulong Zhuang.
In short, the Qingcheng sect, like other Jianghu sects, has encountered troublesome problems. The current disciples basically can't endure hardships, so they can't practice kung fu to a high level. On the contrary, the military, such as the Dragon Snake Troop and the Shadow Troop, have kept pace with the times in the way they train soldiers, and have studied some methods that can quickly improve the combat effectiveness of soldiers.
All in all, there is one point: the Qingcheng faction needs methods or materials to quickly improve the kung fu realm of disciples!
Some materials must have been obtained from the Shinto sect.
For example, some elixirs and pills.
Shinto sect's kindness and power, Qin Lang finally understood what their "enhance" was. As long as he understands this point, Qin Lang will have a way to lure people from the Qingcheng faction to take the bait, but this matter still needs time to plan. Qin Lang has accumulated a lot of pills in his hands, but he didn't intend to let the people of Qingcheng faction share them easily.
One day later, Qin Lang approached Master Shui Jing again.
"I said, Mr. Qin, what are you doing today? If it's still about yesterday's incident, forgive me for being helpless." Shui Jingren can be regarded as an old trickster, and he blocked Qin Lang's mouth as soon as he came up.
"No, two different things."
Qin Lang took a sip of tea before saying, "I'm in urgent need of money recently, so I'm going to sell some of the sect's belongings, but there is no suitable place. Daoist, you are well-informed, you should know the trading workshop of our fellow Jianghu in Pingchuan Province, right? Of course, I’m talking about high-end trading venues, not online auction channels.”
Today's quacks have already opened up online trading places, such as the poison and antidote of the Poison Sect, hidden weapons of the Tang Sect, firearms, etc., can be traded on some secret websites, and the transaction speed is very fast. fast.
However, if it is a particularly valuable thing, it still needs to be traded in a special place. For example, things like panacea, elixir, or things like natural materials and earthly treasures.
When Qin Lang said this, Master Shui Jing immediately understood, nodded and said: "There is indeed such a trading market, but the time has not yet come... Well, we have to wait for three days. As for the specific location, I will inform you later. You. It’s just a statement in advance that you can’t go with us when the time comes.”
"Understood." Qin Lang nodded, he knew that the Qingcheng faction didn't want to get a reputation for colluding with the remnants of the Poison Sect.
"By the way, Pindao is a little curious. I don't know what Mr. Qin is going to sell? If the price is right, our Qingcheng faction can also give it priority."
"I'm sorry, you will know when the time comes." Qin Lang made a fool of himself.
Seeing that Qin Lang refused to reveal the news, Master Shui Jing could only give up, but his curiosity was aroused by Qin Lang. As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Although the Poison Sect has declined, the Poison Sect is also a "Zongzi generation" after all, and some good things must have been handed down. Consider getting these things yourselves. But in this way, the budget for this transaction will be greatly increased. Fortunately, the Qingcheng faction has gained a lot in tourism, feng shui, fortune-telling, sesame oil money and many other industries over the years. It can be said that they are very rich. It should be no problem to spend some money to buy a few elixir and treasures . Many departments of the country may be audited, but there is no such thing as auditing in religion, and they can spend whatever they want.
Two days later, Qin Lang received a message from Master Shui Jing: Mount Emei, Xianfeng Temple.
This is the location of the Exchange City. At that time, some heroes and famous masters in Pingchuan Province will gather at Xianfeng Temple to trade and trade various rare items.
The location of the trading market is changing every time, so it is difficult for outsiders to know the mystery. If it is not told by the real person Shui Jing, Qin Lang will not know the specific location of this secret market.
After receiving the news, Qin Lang rushed to the foot of Mount Emei overnight, because he didn't want to attract attention, so this time he came alone, and he also put on a changeable facial makeup, disguised as a sloppy boy. In addition, Qin Lang also dyed Huolingxue Fox's hair, making it look like a very ordinary stray dog, which complements Qin Lang, a scruffy boy.
