Refining Yang Outer Chapter Ten White-tailed Rat

I really don't have time these two days. Next week, I will taste books again. If I have some time, I also need to think about it well. First, I will pass on two extra chapters. Next week, even if I spit blood, I will make everyone feel good!

————————————————————————————

The knife has been made!

The long and narrow blade, the sharp edge, a row of sharp serrations on the back of the knife, and a blood groove on each side of the blade.

The knife handle is made of a kind of wood called "curve fir pine" in the local forest, which is strong and tough.

The knife handle has been polished and smooth, coated with a layer of blue pigment.

When Ding Shisan saw this knife, his eyes lit up.

He held the handle of the knife in his hand and waved it hard. A thick piece of wood with an adult's arm broke.

What a sharp knife! What a strength!

Ding Kuishan looked at Ding Shisan a little strangely. He always felt that his son seemed to be different today, but he couldn't tell what was the difference. I just feel that Ding Shisan's skin seems to be whiter and tenderer than before, and it seems that he has grown taller.

But he thought about it and shook his head again. He felt that there was something wrong with his eyes. No matter what, it was impossible for such a big change overnight.

I don't think much about it anymore. I just laughed and said, "This knife is a good knife, but I don't have a scabbard at home. I'll go to Qingyang Town to buy you a beautiful scabbard one."

Ding Shisan smiled indifferently: "The scabbard is not important. As long as the knife is good, it is tied with a hemp rope, which is also a treasure. Otherwise, no matter how beautiful the scabbard is, it is just a decoration.

This is Ding Kuiliang, the third uncle of Ding Shisan, who said that Ding Zhankun, Ding Zhankun, the grandfather of Ding Shisan, asked the two to go to the mansion.

Ding Kuishan answered Ding Kuiliang and said that he would take Ding Shisan to see his father later. Ding Kuiliang left first.

Ding Kuishan roughly cleaned up the iron tools, changed into a dress, took Ding Shisan out of the courtyard door, and walked to the yard where his father Ding Zhankun lived.

Ding Shisan is very fond of the short knife that Ding Kuishan just made for him. This fine iron short knife is not as sharp as the special battle dagger made of special steel in the modern world.

Because there was no scabbard, Ding Shisan found a piece of "Qushan Pine" wood as his short knife handle, cut it into the shape of a scabbard with a short knife, and inserted the short knife into it. He put the whole knife on his body with a rope.

Ding Zhankun's home is in the northwest corner of Dingjiazhuang, about 300 meters away from Ding Shisanjia.

Soon the father and son came to Ding Zhankun's house, and an old man in his fifties sat on the front chair in the front room.

The old man was wearing a gray robe, and the hair on his head and the beard under his jaw were mostly white, but his face was ruddy, energetic, and his eyes were bright.

The old man held a long cigarette bag in his right hand, and a stream of white smoke came out of his mouth. He is Ding Zhankun, the grandfather of Ding Shisan.

On the chair next to him sat a middle-aged man in his thirties. The man was wearing a blue cloth robe, his face was as white as jade, and he had three wisps of long beard. It's Ding Kuishan's eldest brother, Ding Shisan's eldest brother Ding Kulin.

Ding Kuilin usually works in Qingyang Town and seldom goes home. Today, he returned to Dingjiazhuang for some reason.

Seeing Ding Kuishan and his son come in, Ding Zhankun knocked the cigarette bag pot on the edge of a spittoon at the foot of the table and poured out the burned-up ash. Looking at Ding Shisan with a smile, his face was full of kindness:

"Thirteen! Grandpa's good grandson, come to Grandpa.

Ding Shisan sweated in his heart, but he had to pretend to be clever. He ran to Ding Zhankun and shouted, "Good grandpa!" Ding Kuishan and Ding Kuilin greeted him and sat down next to him.

I asked Ding Kuishan a few common words. Ding Zhankun said, "Kuishan, your eldest brother came back to deliver the letter. Three days later, it will be the 60th birthday of Mr. Duan Yunya, the owner of Qingyang Town. Our Dingjiazhuang has always been a subordinate village of the Duan family, and I have to participate on behalf of Dingjiazhuang on this birthday.

"But in addition to Master Duan's birthday, there is another special thing to let Kulin tell you."

Ding Kuilin took over and said, "This is the master's birthday on April 13th, and April 15 two days later, which is the three-year day when Qingyang Sect selects disciples."

Ding Kuishan said with a touching face: "Qingyangzong? Is it the Qingyang Sect in Qingyang Mountain?

Ding Kuilin nodded and said, "Yes! It's the Qingyang Sect. Our Qingyang Town and the surrounding area of 800 miles are the sphere of influence of Qingyang Sect. Qingyangzong is the first sect in Jiangzhou. The masters in the door are like a forest, and the power is huge.

Ding Kuilin continued, "This Qingyang Sect returns to Qingyang Town every three years to select some well-qualified disciples. These disciples must not be more than eight years old and have good potential. If you meet the conditions of Qingyang Sect after testing, you can enter Qingyang Sect to practice. As long as you enter Qingyang Sect, your value will immediately double, because entering Qingyang Sect means at least the level of warrior realm in the future.

Ding Kuilin's face also showed a trace of yearning, "Warrior's realm! That's because there are not many strong people in Qingyang Town! Do you know? Even the Duan family has only three masters of warrior realm. A warrior in Qingyang Town can support a small family alone.

Ding Kuilin continued: "So I want the thirteenth to take the potential test on April 15th. The thirteenth is more powerful than others, and he may be selected by the Qingyang Sect. If the thirteenth enters the Qingyang Sect, he can reach the warrior realm at that time. Even if he is only a junior soldier, our Ding family can also raise his eyebrows and shine in Qingyang Town. It's swhet."

When Ding Shisan heard Ding Kuilin talking about the warrior situation, his heart was moved and he remembered what happened last night. So he asked, "Big uncle! What did you say about the warrior realm just now? What is this warrior realm?

Ding Kuilin saw that Ding Shisan was interested in this and told him in detail.

In the continent where they live, there are many people who practice martial arts, but people who practice martial arts at ordinary times only boil their muscles and bones, increase their strength, and practice external skills. Ordinary martial arts practitioners can only make their bodies stronger, move faster than ordinary people, and stronger than ordinary people. This kind of martial arts practitioner is not qualified to be called a martial artist.

Only when you become a warrior can you truly enter the ranks of warriors. Warriors are the lowest level among warriors, but for ordinary people, they are already superior.

By practicing physical skills diligently, a person can produce an internal strength that can be controlled by himself, even if he becomes a fighter.

The power generated in the body of the warrior is also called war spirit. Different stages of war will show different colors.

The fighting spirit in the warrior's realm is red. On top of the junior warriors, there are also the middle level of the warrior and the high level of the warrior.

From the initial stage to the higher stage, the red color will gradually deepen, light red, crimson and red.

If you can go further at the level of the warrior realm, it will become the warrior realm.

The warrior realm is also divided into warrior junior, warrior intermediate, and warrior senior.

When you reach the warrior level, the fighting spirit will change to orange, from the beginner to the high level, light orange, dark orange, golden orange.

The warrior realm can be called a " division" and become a division realm. The battlefield is also divided into three levels: junior, middle and senior.

When the warrior's realm breaks through to the division's realm, the fighting spirit will change to yellow, from the preliminary level to the higher level, which is light yellow, orange and golden yellow.

It is said that if you can break through the warrior's realm and reach the legendary holy realm, the spirit of war will turn cyan.

The cultivation of warriors is extremely difficult. Among ordinary martial arts practitioners, no more than ten out of every 100 people can successfully become warriors. Nine out of ten, the failure rate is very high.

Among those who become warriors, they can cultivate high-level warriors and thus further become warriors. There are only five or six out of every 100 fighters. If you can't eat the suffering that ordinary people can't do, you can't do what you want.

However, compared with the trained warriors, the success rate is already very high.

If a warrior wants to become a warrior, hard training can no longer work.

If you want to break through from the peak of the warrior to the division, you must have a potential physique, strong perseverance, coupled with high-level combat skills, and various great tonics. With the combination of multiple factors, it is possible to break through the bottleneck and finally become a warrior.

Warriors are the mainstay of the mainland. If a warrior is willing to join any family, the family will definitely try its best to retain it, even if it is just a junior warrior.

No family will refuse a soldier to join. In this world, the overall strength of a family fundamentally depends on the number of warriors that the family has.

Because although the warriors are already very powerful for ordinary people, the number is not quite large for some families with a strong foundation.

The warrior is mainly used as a deterrent to the family, and few things will really let the warriors take action.

For ordinary people, the warrior is the top existence in the world. Those things that go beyond the realm of warriors can only be regarded as legends.

Ding Shisan secretly thought in his heart that it turned out that Wan Lianshan and Tu Tianlei were both strong warriors that night, and Tu Tianlei advanced to the high-level warrior realm, which could definitely be called the top existence. Then the map that even these two top masters are desperately fighting for is even more in the same way.

It was decided to let Ding Shisan participate in the selection test of Qingyangzong. At this time, Ding Zhankun said with a sad face, "Kuishan, Master Duan did sixty years old this time, which is more grand than usual. We have to prepare a birthday gift in Dingjiazhuang, but this gift is too heavy for us to give. The gift is too light and we are afraid of being laughed at. We can only take out some wild game. I can't make up my mind now. I'm still worried about this.

Ding Kuishan didn't have any good idea after listening to it. At this time, Ding Shisan suddenly said:

"Grandpa! Recently, when I caught a small animal in the forest outside the village, I accidentally caught a "white-tailed mouse". If this white-tailed mouse is sent to Mr. Duan as a birthday gift, there will definitely be no problem.

"What?"

"Is it really a white-tailed mouse?"

Ding Zhankun, Ding Kuilin and Ding Kuishan stood up in surprise. Ding Zhankun grabbed Ding Shisan's hand and asked nervously:

"Thirteen! Are you sure you caught a white-tailed rat?

Ding Kuilin was so excited that he couldn't help rubbing his hands and said, "Ah! White-tailed rat! If it's really a white-tailed mouse, it's a good gift. As soon as you take it out, you can compare all the gifts. Our Dingjiazhuang will definitely be in the limelight.

Ding Zhankun was also excited, but he quickly calmed down and muttered:

"It shouldn't be! This white-tailed mouse is only found in the depths of Qingyang Mountain. How can it appear near here?

Ding Shisan said, "I don't quite understand, but I can confirm that it is indeed a white-tailed rat. It may also be that a young mouse got lost and bumped into it here randomly.

Ding Zhankun shook his head slightly and said, "No, this white-tailed rat is the best at tracking and looking. It has an extremely sensitive sense of smell and will not get lost easily. If it's true, there must be other reasons for it to come nearby.

Ding Shisan returned home. The day the white-tailed mouse was caught, he raised in a cage. He knew the preciousness of this thing and naturally would not hurt it easily.

Ding Shisan went to the cage and returned to the mansion, and gently put the cage in the hall.
