Chapter 5 The eighth disciple, Qin Hao
Because he was looking for a dental shop, it took less than an hour for Su Chen to find a suitable place, a courtyard room.
The house was in a good location and relatively independent, but the price was a little expensive, costing one and a half taels a month. The other party did not agree to rent it short-term, so Su Chen could only rent it for half a year.
He paid three taels of silver at once, which made Su Chen feel a little distressed.
But fortunately, I finally have a place to stay in the outer city.
Later, Su Chen took the time to buy some daily necessities and brought the things he had packed earlier into the new house.
He didn't go back to his old house for fear of being discovered by the Blackwater Gang, so he packed it up in advance and stored it in an inn.
In the afternoon, Su Chen came to the martial arts gym.
As soon as he entered the martial arts hall, he found that everyone was gathered together. When he got closer, he realized that someone had mastered the Iron Wire Fist.
"I remember his name is Qin Hao. He has mastered the Iron Wire Fist less than half a month after he started. He is so talented!"
"I also started half a month ago, but I haven't touched the threshold yet."
"It's incomparable. He's so talented."
Everyone was talking to each other, their voices full of envy.
Su Chen, who was standing in the crowd, looked at Qin Hao who was surrounded in front of him and entered the inner courtyard, his eyes flickering.
From the conversations between these people, Su Chen also roughly knew how difficult it was to practice Iron Wire Fist.
The difficulty of practicing Iron Wire Fist varies from person to person. Those with talent can master it in ten days and a half.
Those without talent may not achieve anything in a year and a half.
Once practiced, a tiny blood line will condense on both arms.
Qin Hao's talent was obviously extremely high, and he had mastered the Iron Wire Fist into the 'iron wire' form within half a month.
Even among the many disciples recruited by Hong Ming, he is still the best. No wonder he is highly regarded by Hong Ming.
Thinking like this, Su Chen lowered his head and glanced at his arm. A blood line as thin as an iron wire was looming.
If Hong Ming knew that Su Chen had mastered the 'Iron Wire' in just thirty minutes, I'm afraid it would not be Qin Hao but Su Chen who would be the most famous.
"What are you looking at? Take the time to practice, maybe you can get started quickly like Junior Brother Qin!"
At this time, Li Mo came over and shouted loudly to everyone.
The students quickly dispersed and practiced individually.
In the afternoon, the martial arts gym became Qin Hao's personal show, and Hong Ming expressed his respect for Qin Hao without hesitation.
He threatened that as long as Qin Hao could stabilize his bloodline within a month, he would accept Qin Hao as his official disciple.
There are many registered disciples in the entire Hong Family Martial Arts Hall, and if you include those who have left, there are at least hundreds of them.
But there are only seven official disciples, and the last one is Li Mo who he accepted two years ago.
This promise made Qin Hao, a young boy, extremely excited and became even more diligent in practicing martial arts.
I heard from others that Qin Hao was the concubine of a merchant and his status was not high.
It took a lot of effort to come to the martial arts gym. Now that I have the opportunity to become a martial arts disciple, I naturally don't dare to relax at all.
Perhaps stimulated by Qin Hao, everyone's passion seemed to be ignited.
Each one is like a beast in heat, practicing like a wolf or a tiger.
However, compared to everyone's diligent cultivation, Su Chen's attitude was a bit lazy.
It's not that Su Chen doesn't want to practice, it's that the effect of practice is too poor and it's better to cheat.
So after practicing on his own for a period of time, Su Chen gave up practicing.
Anyway, the purpose of his coming to the martial arts hall today was not to practice.
"Junior Brother Su, what happened to your practice?"
At this time, Li Mo, who saw Su Chen stopped practicing, came to him and asked doubtfully.
Seeing that Su Chen was not practicing, he guessed that the other party must have encountered a problem, so he asked.
"Senior Brother Li, I'm fine." Su Chen shook his head.
"Is it because of Qin Hao?"
Su Chen was stunned when he heard this. Li Mo raised his eyes slightly and said to himself: "Since I joined the martial arts gym, this is the first time I see my master so happy."
Hearing this, Su Chen asked: "Senior brother, is Qin Hao's talent very strong?"
"Strong! You haven't practiced boxing yet, and you don't know how difficult it is to practice. Qin Hao can practice it in half a month. With his talent and strength, he is probably the strongest among you, even if he is a formal disciple. No one can compare to it.”
Li Mo praised, not noticing the change in Su Chen's expression at all.
"Brother, apart from Qin Hao, what is the shortest record?"
"It should be Senior Brother. I heard that he succeeded in practicing in just one month."
"Senior brother, what does it take to master Iron Wire Fist?" Su Chen asked curiously.
Li Mo was silent for a while. He wanted to tell Su Chen not to aim too high, but when he thought about the performance of his disciples in the afternoon, it was hard to dampen Su Chen's enthusiasm.
Then he said: "According to what Master said, when practicing Iron Thread Fist, as long as a blood line appears on your hand, you have taken the first step successfully.
Only when the blood line is completely stabilized can you really get started.
Then it changes from light red to red, which is regarded as entering the house. Turning from red to dark red is considered a great success.
Finally, complete conversion to black is achieved. "
After a pause, he continued: "However, each of these four stages is difficult. Ordinary people may not be able to get started in several years. Even if they get started, they may not be able to practice to perfection."
Speaking of this, he thought of Qin Hao.
You know, he only started playing more than two months ago, but Qin Hao was a month and a half earlier than him, which is enough to show how talented Qin Hao is.
"Okay, don't ask so many questions. Your task now is to learn how to stand quickly, and then I can teach you boxing skills."
Seeing Su Chen's silence, Li Mo thought he had been hit, and left after saying a few words of relief.
"One month?"
Su Chen murmured, thoughtfully.
"If I hadn't cheated, I wouldn't have asked Master Hong after a while. After all, I would have been able to gain resources, but now it seems that there is no need to rush."
He shook his head to clear the thoughts from his mind. Then he left the martial arts hall when no one was around.
Li Mo, who had been instructing everyone, finally took a moment to rest. Suddenly, when he glanced out of the corner of his eye, Su Chen was nowhere to be seen.
He opened his mouth, and then held back a sentence: "This kid!"
In the following time, Su Chen's life became two points and one line.
Home and teahouse.
Except for meal time, Su Chen basically stayed in the teahouse.
"Sir, here are the peanuts and tea you asked for."
The waiter has become accustomed to Su Chen's presence. He comes every morning and goes back at night, sitting there all day long.
Order a plate of peanuts, then hold a book in your hand, dipped in tea from time to time, and seem to be copying on the table.
For ten days in a row, the waiter had gotten to know Su Chen.
Facing the waiter's gaze, Su Chen didn't care, his eyes fell on the book, studying the words of this world.
The writing of Daqian is somewhat similar to that of the Tang Dynasty, but not the same.
The original person has never read a book, so he basically cannot read.
So Su Chen took advantage of this time to go to the bookstore and buy some literacy books, and started studying on his own.
With a reserve of knowledge from the previous world, Su Chen learned everything about Da Gan's writing.
At the same time, he was studying and observing every move on the other side.
There, is the gang location of the Blackwater Gang.
