The process of bringing back the people outside the city went smoothly. Not only the group that Su Hanshan met before, but also the three groups of people who had escaped and hid somewhere before, also returned to the city one after another.
It can be seen that they were not too far away from the city.
This is a matter of course.
The area near Dongping City has been cleaned up by previous city lords, and there are not many traces of living corpses, but it is hard to tell if it is a little further away.
What’s more important is that there is still more than a month until the autumn harvest.
These people had originally planned to take their own food reserves and rely on bark, grass, roots, wild vegetables, small animals and the like outside the city to survive in a group outside for a while, and then try to harvest some food.
In this way, we can avoid the hard labor and food provided by Chen Wanchuan, and avoid the hundreds of people who stir up trouble, tease and insult in the city every day, and barely survive.
As for their longer-term plans, they are not so clear.
They didn’t think deeply about the probability of being captured if they hid nearby.
It is a helpless choice. If you still want to consider the long term, it can only be called a fool's dream.
In the past two days, Su Hanshan watched the situation in the city and the status of those who escaped, and felt that he was quite brave.
He has seen the people who fled from the Chu Dynasty. In comparison, these groups of people in Dongping City are not actually that miserable.
While these people still had some money to survive, they foresaw what might happen if they continued to be squeezed by Chen Wanchuan, so they decisively grabbed this little money and decided to flee.
This is very different from the situation in the Chu Dynasty where the people of the nine counties of King Liang were completely desperate and had no capital at all, so they began to flee.
It feels like they have experienced these decades of chaos and chaos and living corpses.
Instead of suffering alive and being completely squeezed to death, they were more willing to take a gamble on whether they would be caught and killed first after escaping, or whether they could survive until the next city lord took over.
In the same situation of helplessness and a little bit of luck, these people have a lot more subjective enthusiasm than ordinary people who encounter major disasters by chance.
Even though many people had lost their bets, before Su Hanshan arrived, the number of people preparing to flee did not decrease, but rather increased.
“What a tough guy!”
Su Hanshan sat in the city lord’s mansion and flipped through several documents that compiled statistics on recent developments in the city.
There are still some remaining officials in the City Lord's Mansion, who were retained by Chen Wanchuan to assist in the collection of grain. Recently, a group of officials have been added from the city.
The first person Su Hanshan woke up that day was named Liu Jiazi, and he was among this group of supplementary personnel.
This man was very dedicated in his work. Not only did he count the household registrations in the city, he also made an inquiry and estimate of the existing surplus grain in the city.
Su Hanshan thought with his toes, knowing how much water the results of this food inquiry would bring to a city lord who had just arrived and violently ascended the throne.
But he didn't care.
"Anyway, according to the results of your inquiry, if all hard work is stopped, the surplus grain in the city can barely last until the autumn harvest. After the autumn harvest, can it last longer?"
Liu Jiazi He said respectfully: "Exactly, but this year's harvest The harvest is much worse than in previous years. Food alone may not be able to sustain the next round of grain maturity. It is still necessary to find some edible branches, leaves and stems while the surrounding mountains and forests are not dry, dry them and store them at home. "
Dongping City is a typical small town with few people and self-sufficiency.
When encountering difficulties, they would not even think about discussing business, exchanging food, etc. with places like Juma City.
After all, the risk of traveling long distances is too great for them, and over the decades, they have become somewhat out of touch, and it is difficult to figure out what is there in the city that can guarantee a certain amount of food in exchange. .
Su Hanshan did not give them any advice for the time being, and nodded: "Then tell them clearly to stop all hard work."
Liu Jiazi showed joy on his face and continued: "After the autumn harvest, the city lord The government also has to collect grain, which was the detailed rules of previous city lords.”
Su Hanshan took it over, glanced at it, and put it down casually: "We'll talk about it then."
"I asked you to interrogate Chen Wanchuan's men, what happened?"
Chen Wanchuan's men , looks brave, more than 20 people can escort more than 100 people, and run rampant in the city.
However, in the past fifty years, local martial arts have been very common, and among the surviving people, there are many who practice martial arts and enter the palace.
As long as there is no Chen Wanchuan to dominate the scene, big players like Liu Jiazi and others take the lead, selecting people with steel knives in their hands, and those on the opposite side are all tied up with water-soaked hemp ropes. If there is any movement, they will chop it off with one knife, and they are not afraid of those The prisoners can turn the world upside down.
“All the stubborn people have been killed, and there are still 302 people left. However, Chen Wanchuan sent several teams of cavalry out to capture the fleeing people, and there are still two teams that have not returned and are missing.”
Liu Jiazi said, "These prisoners who are willing to answer don't know anything about Chen Wanchuan's corpse transformation. However, we have already asked almost everything about their cultivation concepts. We should be able to complete it tonight and submit it to the city lord."
Liu Jiazi was a little confused about this. Those people came from Juma. Among the city troops, the concepts of cultivation are basically the same, and there is nothing particularly surprising.
The specific details of the boxing techniques practiced by Chen Wanchuan have not been handed down at all.
Su Hanshan can even kill Chen Wanchuan. Recently, he has wanted to get rid of all the types of ideas circulating in Dongping City. He still wants those captive ideas. He doesn’t know what kind of fetish he is. .
"Well, you can continue to work."
Su Hanshan picked up a book on the table and said slowly, "As long as you can do things well and you have the people you want to help, you can Make arrangements, but don’t go too far. Even if you want to get some benefits, you have to wait for Dongping City to calm down."
Liu Jiazi quickly bent down, cupped his hands and said, "I understand."
< br>
Did they understand that Su Hanshan would go and see it by himself?
Anyway, Su Hanshan is in this world for half a year. At least during the period before the autumn harvest, he will always be in the city, so he has plenty of time.
After Liu Jiazi and others left, Su Hanshan made himself a pot of tea and slowly finished reading the book in his hand.
Su Hanshan has already read through several sets of ideas circulating in Dongping City, including those kept by wealthy families and previous generations of city lords.
The most exquisite one is the volume in his hand, "Thunder, Fire and Breeze Open the Gate of Heaven".
It is necessary to visualize the thunder clouds above and the sea of fire below, with one's thoughts suspended in them, and the breeze surrounding the body, unobstructed by thunder and fire.
Until the breeze becomes stronger, tries to extinguish the sea of fire, strikes the thunder clouds, and enters the heavenly gate above the thunder clouds, a round of training is completed. This cycle repeats to temper the spirit.
In the patterns of classic books, there is a complete set of logic in the way of depicting thunder clouds, firelight, and strong winds. Different angles, how many strokes there will be, and what kind of details are outlined are all very orderly.
Although the perspective patterns that can be recorded in books are limited, once you understand this set of expression logic, when you visualize it in your mind, you can visualize the entire scene from any subtle angle. Every good visualization method should have such internal logic, so that the things and scenes visualized can be vivid and perfect, and have a better effect of tempering the spirit.
From the perspective of exercising mental strength alone, the effect of this volume of "Thunder, Fire and Clear Wind Opens the Heavenly Gate" is almost as good as that of "Moonlight Bodhisattva Mantra".
But this Thunder Fire Qingfeng Opens Heavenly Gate, only in terms of inner cultivation, it has the style of superior exercises, but in terms of use, it is very poor.
There is no need to compare it with the Moonlight Bodhisattva Mantra. If you look at the local martial arts, you will find that the part about regulating the body and using it for combat is only half as good as other superficial skills books.
Su Hanshan still remembers that when Chen Wanchuan was boxing, his boxing techniques and mental strength were highly unified, and even his movements could enhance his mental strength on the spot.
It can be seen that in this world, the method of visualization refers not only to visualizing in the brain, but also to "visualizing" with the physical body.
Su Hanshan wanted to use the martial arts characteristics of this world to figure out the ultimate realm of the Thirty-Three Sections of the Ladder. Naturally, he had to do some research and screening before he could officially start.
“Zhao Lizong’s big hand seal, Marshal Meng’s Yinfu knife, and even the master’s skills of playing with colorful flags and spears in Kuanggu Hall, all have some skills that rely solely on expression, movement, gestures, light and shadow, stance, and color. A method that can confuse other people's minds..."
Su Hanshan thought, "Mahamudra is based on the three secrets of body, speech and mind, and can evolve into various phases, Yin Fu Dao Tian Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, Thunder, Shanze, including the Eight Magic Gates, you can pick out some parts that have similar attributes to Tianmen Guanyin."
"There are no other good techniques for the time being, so I will try it myself. Try."
When he was thinking about something, he walked around as usual, left the study, and went to the courtyard arranged for Wang Xiangqian and the children.
Wang Xiangqian is practicing boxing. His moves are simple and vigorous, and there are many imitations of swords, shields, sledgehammers, and holding a horse's neck.
This set of boxing techniques is called "Horse King Crash and Beat", and the visual method is called "Eight-foot Long Xiang". It is obviously a martial art spread in the military.
Her skills were handed over to Su Hanshan last night. The coordination of spirit and boxing skills was good, but the training effect was not as good as Tianmen Guansi.
Wang Qianqian was born as a refugee. He only came into contact with this set of exercises when he was a teenager. In his early twenties, he has already developed a combat power equivalent to that of Qi Hai Xiaocheng. His aptitude and perseverance are actually among the best. select.
If the elderly people in Wangjia Village live two or three more years, they may be able to see a successor who is better than his predecessor.
It's a pity that in troubled times, too many opportunities have collided, but there are also too many opportunities that have been interrupted without good development as soon as they collided.
Several children are also practicing boxing with her. It can be seen that their skills are very solid, but they lack a little understanding, and there is no charm in their fists and feet.
“City Lord!”
After Wang Xiangqian collected his power, he found Su Hanshan and quickly clasped his fists.
Su Hanshan said: "I agreed before that I would exchange a set of martial arts with you. Now that you and I have nothing to do, I will teach you this set of martial arts."
While he was speaking, he put a palm on Wang Qianqian's shoulder, and introduced a mellow power into Wang Qianqian's meridians, following the internal power route of the Seven-wheel Brahma Self-Ding Seal.
Zhao Lizong was attacked by Li Qiumian, and his kung fu was sucked away by Tachaer. He was unable to fully display his kung fu and died.
In fact, when it comes to the perfection of the foundation of the martial arts, the chief master of Kuanggu Hall is by no means inferior to anyone in that world.
Using the modified "Seven Wheels of Brahma Self-Defying Seal" as internal strength and "Three Loss and Three Destruction Mahamudra" as moves, it is also very suitable for warriors in this world.
“Remember this feeling in your body, and then follow me.”
Su Hanshan retracted his hand and practiced the Mahamudra at a speed that could be seen clearly.
Wang Xiangqian had never learned internal skills before. The energy introduced into her body was, after all, external energy. It could only maintain the normal movement route for half a quarter of an hour, and then it would gradually dissipate.
But half a quarter of an hour was enough for her to learn Mahamudra once with her inner strength.
Su Hanshan practiced slowly. During this process, he also carefully reviewed this set of exercises and carefully selected the essence of Mahamudra that was suitable for use in conjunction with the Tianmen concept.
The three words Mahamudra do not originally mean human hands. Mahamudra represents supremacy, hands represent practice, and Mahamudra represents unity with the Buddha's heart.
Mahamudra represents the pursuit of the supreme practice of practice until the state of perfect harmony with the hearts of all Buddhas.
However, people’s ten fingers are connected to the heart, and the fingers are the most flexible and can affect the meridians of the whole body. Therefore, when implemented in martial arts practice, Mahamudra is indeed inseparable from the operation of the ten fingers of both hands.
When Su Hanshan was in a wheelchair for several years, he not only strengthened his mind, but also trained the ten fingers of his arms to an extremely fine level. Both the Golden Eye Technique and Pure Yang Palm focused on the nourishment and use of the palms and fingers.
The foundation has been laid so well. Now I have the idea of practicing Mahamudra, and I can understand everything.
With this set of big hand seals, when he reached the back, there was even a faint scent of sandalwood floating in the entire yard. When people smelled it, they felt solemn and clear in body and mind.
This is an aura created by his thoughts, movements, and skills. If placed in the world of the Southern Song Dynasty, it would already be an expression of the pinnacle of Mahamudra.
In the following days, Su Hanshan walked around the city every morning and evening. During the few hours when the sun was shining, he practiced in the city lord's mansion, exploring the potential of the Mahamudra and Yin Fu Dao, without using his internal strength. Next, practice using mudra and Tianmen contemplation method.
It is really a great pleasure to not have to cut off the foundation!
Su Hanshan's recent practice has been very effective. He has the ability to perfectly control himself and can formally explore the omens of the extreme realm of the ladder.
When a baby is born, there are thirty-three vertebrae in the spine, but during the growth process, some bones will fuse, leaving only twenty-six vertebrae.
This is how the twenty-six sections of the ladder realm are divided.
The so-called Ladder to the Ultimate Realm, thirty-three sections, nominally, is to restore the spine to thirty-three sections.
But in fact, the focus of this extreme realm is not to split bones.
Rather, through the process of restoring the spine, we need to discover the best state of our own development potential, and then "create" new hidden meridians.
There are countless hidden meridians in the human body. Not to mention the realm of heavenly ladder, even if you reach the realm of Xuantai, you may not be able to fully control it. More importantly, there is no need to control it, because there are many of them The meridians are inconvenient to use.
But if you can step into the ultimate realm of heavenly ladder, you can create a large number of usable and efficient hidden meridians according to the warrior's instinctive needs.
The strength of one's induction and the degree of subdivision of infuriating energy can reach a super-limit state that can even be slightly higher than one's own subjective will.
This kind of original need is the product of the various congenital and acquired conditions of the warrior. It must be deeply felt and strengthened to a full state before starting to restore the spine in order to achieve success. .
Su Hanshan practiced every day, pursuing that state, and before he knew it, a month had passed.
The autumn harvest is coming soon, and Dongping City has finally become more joyful recently.
However, before the autumn harvest, a group of people broke into Dongping City.
