It is a very troublesome process to go from the realm of boxing to the spiritual realm.
If you want to refine your own pure spiritual thing, it will take anywhere from three to more than ten years. During this period, you have to practice it every day without interruption. If you miss it once, it may take more. Make up for several days of hard work.
Some warriors have already begun to age before they can temper a pure spiritual object, and their physical strength and spirit begin to decline. As a result, the effect of tempering becomes worse, the time required is extended, and they will not be able to move for the rest of their lives. Entering the realm where the soul enters the body.
Even if you have good qualifications and work hard, it only takes two or three years to master a pure spiritual object. During this period, the spiritual object needs to be carried with you in case it is destroyed during a battle with someone. , which is equivalent to wasting your efforts.
Masters of all ages have wanted to solve this problem and created many auxiliary means. The most famous result is the Twenty-Four Holy Spirits created during the reign of Emperor Taizong of the Wude Dynasty.
That period was a legend created by the collection of ancient and modern classics, the wisdom of the world, and decades of hard work, from troubled times to prosperous times. It was a model of civility and the pinnacle of martial arts.
As long as you have practiced one of the twenty-four sets of exercises, reached the state of channeling the spirit of the fist, and then obtained the corresponding Holy Spirit, you can rely on the infusion of the spirit of the fist in about three to ten months. From the Holy Spirit, a divine soul of his own was split.
Su Hanshan already has some understanding of the three martial arts realms in this world.
The combat power of the internally refined soul is basically equivalent to that of the Qihai realm, and the psychic power of the fist spirit corresponds to about the first to twentieth section of the ladder.
The soul entering the body corresponds to the level of the peak of the ladder and above.
In other words, if you have a Holy Spirit, you can have a combat power close to the peak of the ladder within ten months.
This is really amazing.
Su Hanshan's own cultivation speed is not much faster than this. The basic advantages of pure Yang instinct and Qi Sea extreme realm are difficult to share with others.
But the twenty-four Holy Spirits can be reused.
It is conceivable that in the most prosperous period of the Wude Dynasty, there were endless generals and the majesty of all nations coming to court, and the twenty-four holy spirits were indispensable.
However, from the middle to the end of the Takeru Dynasty, bloody internal fights among generals, civil servants, eunuchs, and the royal family were so frequent that the Twenty-Four Holy Spirits disappeared long before the world was transformed into corpses.
The Holy Spirit Golden Chanzi obtained by Juma City was also a coincidence. A few years ago, the daughter of the city lord accidentally broke a small jade Buddha that was passed down from their ancestors in the temple, and it was a treasure that was discovered from it.
The Lord of Juma City is a monk who has returned to secular life, and he practices the exercises in their temple that correspond to the Golden Chanzi. Obtaining this treasure will benefit him a lot, and of course he will not hesitate to cultivate his confidants. .
Sun Xingzu and the others were promoted to the realm where the soul enters the body through Jin Chanzi.
Although Su Hanshan can't get this Holy Spirit now, he has also got the "Jin Chanzi Martial Arts", which can be used for detailed reference.
"I have another question."
After Su Hanshan asked them to recite the martial arts scripture silently, he asked again, "As long as you don't fall asleep during the twelve hours of the winter solstice, there should be no signs of corpse transformation. "
"Chen Wanchuan has traces of being transformed into a corpse for a long time, and there are some puzzling behaviors. It seems that he wants to perform some kind of sacrifice. He was also a general of Juma City at the beginning. Do you know what happened? What's going on ?"
Sun Xingzu said: "For ordinary people, as long as they can't sleep for the twelve hours of the winter solstice, they can barely survive it."
"But for the strength. For an experienced warrior, if he fights with a powerful enemy and his soul is severely injured, and he is still seriously injured until the winter solstice, there is a certain possibility of contracting the corpse transformation even if he can't sleep."
"No one can explain the origin of the corpse transformation so far. No one can understand why there is such a difference."
Sun Xingzu thought for a while, "As for the related sacrifices, I don't know. I've never heard of him, I don't know what he is like The thing is, it may be because no warrior can survive for more than a year after contracting the signs of corpse transformation, so they just put their hope in some deception. "
The corpse transformation in this world is not so much a kind of corpse transformation. Viruses that tamper with the body and cause people to lose consciousness.
It is better to say that it affects the soul first, and then reflects on the body.
When Su Hanshan was studying the living corpses, he had some vague guesses and didn't seem too surprised.
"You came to blackmail me and attacked me. Just answering these questions is not enough to atone for your sins."
Su Hanshan said, "I ordered all of your subordinates to help with harvesting in the following days. You can do it every day There is some wild vegetable soup to satisfy your hunger. After the autumn harvest, I will arrange your place."
While speaking, Su Hanshan put down the book in his hand, raised his hand, and sucked up the iron that monk Benzhi used before. Great.
He broke off a section of the stick as thick as his arm with his bare hands, placed it on the table, and with his palm like a knife, he chopped a few times carefully.
Icy blue light enveloped his palm, and he easily chopped the iron block into steel nails as thick as the tips of chopsticks, which were slightly sunk into the table.
bite! ! !
Su Hanshan swiped his palm, and all the steel nails flew out with a trembling sound. The sound of popping into the flesh was heard continuously, and they penetrated into various acupuncture points on the three people's bodies.
This is the method he just thought of. It is easy for these three people to solve it by just using zhenqi to tap the acupuncture points.
But he used the Hidden Word Technique to store the true energy inside these steel nails, and then penetrated these people's acupuncture points, and the effect could be extended a lot.
For at least a whole day, the three of them are not allowed to move. When the day is about to pass, they can replenish their energy.
"Liu Jiazi, please escort them to do their work."
Liu Jiazi next to him had a strange expression, and Wang Xiangqian also showed a look of laughter.
It turns out that when those steel nails were driven in, most of them were inserted into other places in the body, but some acupuncture points on the head should not be inserted too deep.
The three bare heads are now decorated with a few long steel nails, giving them a strange appearance.
When Liu Jiazi and his men escorted the three people away, Wang Xiangqian still stayed in the lobby, showing some hesitation.
Su Hanshan flipped through the book and said casually: "What's wrong with you?"
Wang Xiangqian said: "City Lord, we want to live in the city, but there are no seed fields, so it's not like that. I think First find a job at the City Lord’s Mansion and get some copper coins so that you can buy seeds.”
For this month, Wang Xiangqian and others lived in the City Lord’s Mansion, with food and drink, and they only needed to practice martial arts every day. In fact, I felt quite unsure.
However, Su Hanshan practiced there every day, and also questioned her about her daily entry, so the days passed like this.
When she found an opportunity today, she wanted to take the opportunity to talk about herself.
"I can understand your mood. You want to have your own savings and your own channels to earn savings. This is what you rely on in life, instead of living in a strange place for no reason and being supported by a group of people you meet by chance. ”
Su Hanshan said with a smile, "But if you want to become a part of this city, you don't necessarily have to do farming, or become an attendant or clerk in the city lord's palace."
"I asked you to practice martial arts. Because this city is missing some places, When you master your martial arts, you will be able to fill these positions more smoothly."
Wang Xiangqian realized something: "Is the city lord talking about the soldiers guarding the city?"
" Soldiers can also be cultivated, but I don’t care about your Hope is more than that." Su Hanshan said, "If people want to live a stable life, enclosing a piece of land to be self-sufficient is certainly a good way, but in such a closed small environment, the ability to resist risks is really poor. ”
“After all, people need communication to grow stronger, and the same is true between cities.”
When Su Hanshan was in Cangshui County, he first just wanted to let people After the business of Songhe Martial Arts School can improve, I want to make the entire hometown of Cangshui County more stable.
But after returning from the Divine Power Banquet, he took the initiative to intervene in the affairs of surrounding counties.
This is a change in mentality and an understanding brought by experience.
Su Hanshan recalled what he saw when he went out to wander every morning and evening during this period.
“Tens of thousands of people in the city gathered together. Even the surrounding empty houses have not been repaired. There are few shops and almost no fun. They all live like beggars. I don’t like it very much.”
“Obviously they are very diligent It’s hard work, it can even be said to be hard work, why can I only live like this?”
Su Hanshan’s tone was obviously displeased, “What’s even more funny is that I turned forward. , I found that even the city lords and big households in this small place are quite nice. Too bad, if you want to vent your anger on the culprit, there is no place to look for it, so you have to attack the environment first.”
“There are not rich cities or prosperous places in this world, as long as there are various cities. If they can be connected and things can circulate, more opportunities will be discovered. If a place suffers from farmland disasters such as heavy rains and droughts, other places can also provide support. If there are no disasters, then everyone can Can live a better life ”
"I hope that in the future, you can become a pioneer in attacking the environment, destroy the zombies or other things that block the road, use resources well, and make the place where people live more comfortable."
Wang Xiangqian was stunned for a while: "It doesn't sound like something I can do at all."
"Haha, I just hope You just became one of them, and I didn’t ask you to go now.”
Su Hanshan laughed twice and said, “I originally thought that after the autumn harvest, I would take a group of you to reject it. Let’s take a look at Ma Cheng and see if we can gain anything.”
For example, see more martial arts in this world and help Dongping City find some businesses with which we can cooperate.
"But Juma City has actually been occupied by barbarians. The situation must change. You can only be more patient and continue practicing to prepare."
Su Hanshan patted Wang Qianqian on the shoulder, "Don't underestimate it. "Myself."
"Your body and spirit have been well trained, and your meridians are strong and wide, so after being exposed to my martial arts, your internal strength suddenly increased." You have advanced so fast that you have reached Qi Sea level 12 or above.”
“With the cultivation of internal soul refining and the cultivation of Qi breathing, your current combat power should be close to the Qi sea level... That is to say, the master who has internally refined his soul, the martial arts that I have continuously transformed for you will become the source of learning for many people in the future."
Wang Xiangqian was said to be at a loss.
It always felt like the things Su Hanshan said had nothing to do with her life in the past twenty years.
However, if it can really make yourself and everyone else live a better life, you may not not be able to give it a try.
In that case, my younger brothers and sisters will not experience so many painful things like me in the future, right?
"I will work hard."
Wang Qianqian's eyes wandered for a moment, then he came back to his senses and said seriously, "I will go back and continue practicing."
Su Hanshan watched her go to the nearby yard to practice martial arts, and picked up the teacup with a thoughtful look on her face.
Was it too early to say these words just now?
It seems a bit.
Maybe I got too much news from Sun Xingzu and the others, which caused too many thoughts to come to my mind, so I said some of the things I had thought about before.
Su Hanshan laughed.
But among the news, apart from the Holy Spirit, barbarians, etc., there was another point that particularly concerned him.
The people in Jiangdong have long wanted to form an alliance with others and open up roads on land. They even want to contact the small towns along the way, doing things that are considered "absolutely unnecessary" by the canal cities.
Whether those people are doing it for their own long-term ambitions or something else, they are at least more interesting than people like Chen Wanchuan and Sun Xingzu.
Made Su Hanshan want to meet him.
There are now more than two thousand horses in Dongping City, and the living corpses nearby have been cleaned up. It is possible to send some people out to explore.
So, when the people in Dongping City were busy working on the autumn harvest, some people rode out of the city.
In less than two days, Su Hanshan received the news.
A spy was in the southeast. When he climbed the mountain and looked into the distance, he saw large areas of smoke, which should be only thirty or forty miles apart.
That night, Su Hanshan left the city.
His speed is far faster than the cavalry. With one casual step, his figure is twenty feet away.
It's only a few dozen miles, even if there are mountains and rivers separating it, it won't take much time.
And there is mist at night. Even if there is still smoke rising in the distance, it is not easy for ordinary people's eyesight to distinguish it, but Su Hanshan can see it and judge the direction.
When he passed through a dense forest, he saw a large tent under the hillside in front of him on the left.
Between the tents, an iron pot was set up, and dead branches picked up from nearby were burning brightly inside.
There are also some iron pots with hot water boiling in them, and there are circles of soldiers guarding them.
If those camps were full of people, a rough estimate would suggest that there should be four to five thousand people here.
As Su Hanshan walked towards the camp, he slowed down a bit and was quickly discovered.
“Hey, it’s a living person!”
The soldiers guarding the edges of the camps looked up. Some of them were holding bowls of hot water in one hand and pressing the handle of the knife with the other. Although their hands were not He let go of the weapon, but smiled on his face.
"What a skill. I dare to walk alone in the woods in the middle of the night and come here cleanly. I don’t know where I am from. Are you passing by or are you looking for us?"
Su Hanshan clasped his fists and said: "I heard that there are strong men in the east of the Yangtze River, clearing out the living corpses, opening up roads, heading north, are you all there?"
As he spoke, his eyes swept across the crowd, and suddenly he realized that all the soldiers in front of him were there. , turned out to be all in their forties or fifties, not a single young person.
