Chapter 65 Diners
The next morning, He Yiming got up. He washed it for a while, and his depressed look suddenly became much less and he looked a little energetic.
It was certainly to cover up the eyes of people, but since I asked yesterday, and what's even better is that the seventh master also went to say hello. If he didn't use it for a while, that would be stupid.
However, since you plan to be a diner for a few days, you must be more energetic in dressing up. If you still look so down and out, it will be a bit suspicious.
After finishing the organization, he left the room, went to the front desk to check out, and walked along the avenue.
A few miles away, for a practitioner, it doesn’t take much time at all.
However, under He Yiming's deliberate control, he arrived at Xujiabao an hour later.
When he first saw Xujiabao, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional. This century-old family of others is indeed not something that the current He family can easily surpass.
The entire Xujiabao covers an area of hundreds of acres, and a huge wall is built against the mountain. The city wall is about five meters high, all of which are made of huge rocks. From a distance, it looks like an ancient giant beast lying on the ground, making people feel unbreakable.
He Yiming once saw the city walls in the county town, but compared with Xujiabao in front of him, it was much inferior.
He sighed in his heart, in Taicang County, the power of the government is indeed much inferior to that of the aristocratic families.
Third brother and the others once said that although the Cheng family set up their family in the county town, there were several villages outside the city. It is said that in their place of making their fortune, it was also a place where they were very strict in defense and difficult to attack.
Whenever he saw more Xu and Cheng's trump cards, He Yiming was amazed. No wonder the He family obviously surpassed Cheng's. The peak combat power of the Xu Er family was only ranked last among the three major families. This is not unreasonable.
He suddenly thought of something that the He family did not raise diners, not just because of financial resources. I am afraid that those skilled diners will choose to join the Xu family after seeing the momentum of Xujiabao. This may be the real reason why grandpa is unwilling to attract diners.
He Yiming looked up and looked for a while, and finally walked towards the castle gate.
He just arrived at the castle gate and was immediately pulled down by a man. This man was in his thirties and was wearing a long gown, which was obviously different from those who were entering and leaving the fortress. He clasped his fists to He Yiming and said with a smile on his face: "Brothers look very handsome. I wonder what it is to come to Xujiabao."
He Yiming returned a bow and said with a reluctant smile: "I am Xia Xiaoqin, a native of Taichong County. I heard that Xujiabao is famous, so I want to come here to surrender and make a living."
What he said was very simple, and he explained his origin and purpose clearly in just a few words.
There was no surprise on the man's face. He seemed to have known about this for a long time and said, "So that's it. I, Xu Yuchang, is one of the officials in the Waibao. Please follow me with Brother Xiao."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
He Yiming hesitated for a moment, then followed. Since there is a word Yu in this person's name, it is clearly the same as Xu Yucai and others. However, seeing that he is over thirty years old, his cultivation level is only about five levels, and he is only one of the foreign bank managers. When I came here today, I probably got the news from Xu Family Town before, so I specially welcomed him.
No matter from which perspective, this person's status will not be very high in the Xu family.
This made He Yiming feel moved again.
The Xu family is really prosperous, and the three generations of children in Hejiazhuang have less than ten, and not one of them is over thirty years old.
After entering the castle, the first thing He Yiming saw was the cultivated farmland. He was slightly stunned and immediately understood why the castle occupied such a wide area. It turned out that there was also his own arable land in the castle, although it might not be able to satisfy everyone's food.
But if you encounter a war, just close the castle gate, you can hold on for a long time without asking for anything else.
From this point of view, the ancestors of the Cheng family have worked hard for the foundation in the family.
In the middle of the farmland is a road that can accommodate eight horses in parallel. After passing through this road, it is a continuous residential area.
Xu Yuchang took He Yiming to a wide courtyard and said, "Brother Xiao, welcome you to our Xujiabao, but there is another rule for our Xujiabao to recruit diners. I wonder if you have heard of it."
He Yiming nodded slowly and said, "Before coming here, I have already inquired about it. Diners in Xujiabao need at least three levels of internal strength."
When saying this, He Yiming was also quite sighing.
Although the servants in Hejiazhuang were also cultivated by Mr. He from scratch, among them, the highest internal strength among them was only three levels, and most of them were below three levels.
In Xujiabao, even the worst diners need at least three levels of internal strength, and the gap is really big.
Xu Yuchang smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, Xu family diners, at least the third level of internal strength. However, if Brother Xiao's internal strength can reach the fifth level, he is qualified to enter the Xu family's inner fort. If he makes contributions in the fort, he can even enter the library to learn the combat skills in the fort."
He Yiming focused his head, and there seemed to be a strange burning breath in his eyes, but there was no fluctuation in his heart.
Xu Yuchang looked at the other party calmly. He received many wandering cultivators, most of whom could not meet the requirements of the third level of internal strength. Even if he barely achieved it, his own strength was only ordinary.
But this is also very normal. How could a truly capable practitioner come to the remote Taicang County? Most of the practitioners who are able to come here willingly are older but have accomplished nothing, just coming with the mentality of eating and waiting for death.
Of course, there are also some practitioners with the fourth and fifth levels of internal strength coming, but their purpose is the Xu family's library. However, they do not know that unless they are truly accepted by the family, the part disclosed in the library is just the most common combat skills.
He Yiming took a deep breath, took a few steps back, clasped his fists at Xu Yuchang, then made a mistake in his palms, and began to practice boxing.
What he used was the water-based combat skills Mian Palm.
This set of combat skills is widely circulated among all practitioners. As long as a practitioner who practices the water-based internal strength technique, he will probably know a few tricks of Mian Palm Kung Fu.
When He Yiming used his palm, Xu Yuchang's brows frowned slightly. In his heart, his evaluation of the man in front of him suddenly became much lower.
However, after a moment, his eyes lit up, and with a little surprise, his original contempt was swept away.
Although He Yiming suppressed his internal strength cultivation to the fourth level, the muffin palm he used was incomparable to ordinary people.
Even if it is just to use the most basic routine in Mian Palm, it still has a feeling of endlessness, as if it is endless.
Xu Yuchang's heart suddenly felt a sense of stunning.
With his strength and status in Xujia Fort, he really cannot access too high people and things, but he grew up in the fort and was attracted by the eyes and could still distinguish the quality of combat skills and skills.
After seeing He Yiming's flowing palm, he had already made a self-righteous judgment in his heart.
This person's internal strength cultivation may not be very high, but he is a veteran with rich combat experience and has a certain understanding of the combat skills of Mianzhang. At least, he has mastered the boxing intention of this combat skills.
But this is something that many practitioners will never realize in their lifetime.
Such a person can be considered a talent in Taicang County.
With a stick of incense, He Yiming had finished the first routine of Mian Palm. He held his palm and stood up, looking at Xu Yuchang quietly.
To be honest, he was also a little nervous because he didn't know what the specific standard was, so when he used the Mian Palm, he deliberately took out some real skills.
Xu Yuchang nodded slightly, stretched out a palm, and said, "Brother Xiao, please."
He Yiming was speechless immediately. It turned out that this person had been watching a while ago, but he couldn't even tell the fourth level of internal strength he was using.
But this cannot be blamed for him. In fact, it is not a simple matter to be able to see the opponent's strength through a set of boxing practices. This not only requires extraordinary eyesight and strength, but also requires rich experience.
When He Yiming was in Xujia Town, he inferred his internal strength cultivation after hearing the old man's voice. That was definitely a very special case and could not be popularized to everyone.
He stretched out his palm flatly, and He Yiming mobilized his internal strength at the same time, and the internal strength of both sides was about to stop at once.
A smile appeared on Xu Yuchang's face and said, "Brother Xiao, congratulations, your internal strength has been cultivated for four levels, and the use of the Mian Palm has reached an extremely high level, which has fully met the standards of the Xu family diners."
He Yiming smiled with relief, his expression fell into the other party's eyes, and there was no doubt.
The subsequent things became much simpler. Since they were recognized by Xu Yuchang, they could get a house of about 20 square meters in the outer castle, and they could go to a fixed place for three meals a day, and there was also a ounce of silver every month. This treatment was already top in Taicang County.
After Xu Yuchang confirmed his strength, he found out indirectly where He Yiming's "hometown" was located.
Of course, He Yiming understood his intention and reported a place name in Taichong County. With the strength of Xujiabao, it would take at least one month to find out if Xiao Qin was there.
However, by that time, He Yiming probably had left long ago.
