Cultivating immortals, starting from immortality, bright moon toast together

In terms of the transformation of the exercises, the progress went smoothly, which made Lu Yuan feel very good.

However, in addition to transferring to cultivation, he also took some time and instructed his few cheap named disciples to continue his old business.

Originally, because his cultivation had reached the limit of the Qi Replenishing Heart Sutra, his demand for Replenishing Spirit Pills was greatly reduced, and he only prepared Replenishing Spirit Pills that could complete the Qi Replenishing Heart Sutra.

Later, because there was not much money in his hand, he did not continue to spend money to buy century-old medicinal herbs.

But now that he had obtained the Chiyang Divine Skill, Lu Yuan needed to practice the Miracle Scriptures, and suddenly added two more.

In this case, if you want to improve your strength quickly, you naturally need to prepare more tonic elixirs.

As for money.

Although the 500,000 taels of military pay have been used in bits and pieces in the past few months, more than 200,000 taels have been used piecemeal, but half of them are still left in their hands.

Tens of thousands of taels of silver were drawn from it and used to buy a hundred years of elixir, a breeze thing.

What the?

Is this considered embezzlement of military salaries?

The whole army is mine, and General Ben takes some silver from his own house, is this considered greed?

In this way, Lu Yuan’s named disciples who had rested for most of the year began to travel everywhere in the south and north of the world for the needs of their own masters.

And now, after more than half a year, Dayue has also become more turbulent, and there are military disasters everywhere. It is conceivable that the risks they will take on this trip are much greater than before.

But the master has a life, and he must obey.

In the face of Lu Yuan, who has now gone further and been promoted to general, the thoughts and minds of these apprentices who dare to resist are smaller than ever.

Even with Zhou Qing’s return, in the face of this legitimate family disciple, these apprentices who were now only named disciples felt more pressure.

Now that they are all rubbing their hands, they want to make meritorious contributions and strive to become the second personal disciple of the master?

After all, as long as you become a personal disciple, the benefits on the bright side are first-class martial arts inheritance, as well as the rank of captain of the sixth grade.

Taken together, these two things are enough to make anyone crazy and fight for their lives.

However, Lu Yuan didn’t care much about what these disciples thought.

There are apprentices who are invested in true feelings, and one Zhou Qing is enough.

The others came a few, Lu Yuan was really afraid that watching the apprentices die one by one in the future, his state of mind would not be able to stand it.

So maybe those named disciples made merit, and he would give a personal disciple the title, reward the Qi Replenishing Heart Sutra that had been eliminated, and promote him to captain.

But to say that they really treat them as mantle disciples is purely overthinking.

However, with these substantial benefits, I think these disciples will not care too much, does the teacher really regard himself as an apprentice, really as his own person?

Feelings this thing.

Those who care care are very concerned, but those who do not care are also worthless.

Compared with this kind of idealistic thing, the substantive benefit is more moving.

……

After ordering the purchase of medicinal materials for a hundred years, Lu Yuan really began to forget about foreign objects and shrunk up to practice.

Now that the army has Zhou Qing watching, there are several named disciples of the practice spirit pill to deal with, there is no worries and miscellaneous things, and the speed of practice is naturally fast.

However, in just two months, Lu Yuan completed the transfer of the first six meridians of the Chiyang Divine Skill and stepped into the second-rate realm of this skill.

At this time, the time had also come to September of the fourth year of Hirodo.

At the beginning of the month, Lu Yuan was still in retreat as usual, and after the practice, he picked up the news from all sides that Zhou Qing had sorted out and began to read.

Then after watching for a while, the person froze.

“Western Shu hooked up with the Zhou state, led the Zhou army into Xichuan, and then cooperated with the Zhou army to fight an ambush in Xuanwu Mansion. Now that the imperial court has lost 50,000 soldiers, the remnants have retreated to Anyue Mansion to hold on? ”

Lu Yuan read the above news, and his heart was a little shaken.

The marquis of Wu’an of the imperial court, in March this year, arrived in Dongting County with an army of 50,000 Pingnan.

Then he did not care about the rebels in the county, but led the army to fight against the Western Shu army.

Listening to Zhou Qing later, this Wu’an Marquis Bai Mengyang contacted the martial arts group in Xichuan County to rise up, and set off a rebellion in the Western Shu Kingdom, shaking the military heart of the frontline army of the Western Shu State.

Later, not long after Zhou Qing returned to Shaoyang Mansion, in mid-July, Lu Yuan’s side received a good news from the imperial court.

It is said that Wu Anhou led his army to defeat the pseudo-Shu rebel thieves, beheaded 30,000 people, and now he has led his army to attack Xichuan, even down several cities, and besieged Jiangfu City.

Then another month later, half a month ago, he received news from his side.

Wu’an Hou personally put on armor, led his army to attack the city, directly beheaded the first-class family master of the Linjiang clan, and attacked the city of Linjiangfu.

Without this obstacle, the imperial court army was able to enter Xichuan directly, and converged with the Xichuan County Qunhao, who was being beaten by the Xishu army who was returning to suppress the rebellion.

Then these land snakes were collected, and the imperial court army was greatly strengthened, and the soldiers and horses directly expanded to 100,000 people. And the land of the nine prefectures of the fallen Xichuan County was also recovered from the four prefectures.

Now the county is still controlled by Western Shu, and only the land of the five provinces remains. And the remaining soldiers and horses in Li Xiong’s hands, after successive losses, were less than 50,000.

No matter how you look at it, this Xishu traitor who has been making trouble for four years and has been founding the country for one year will not be able to jump for long.

Even if they collapse a little, the imperial court will give a little strength, and it may be that by the end of this year, Wu’an Marquis will be able to lead troops to attack and destroy the Shu thieves.

Add a thick ink to your resume of destroying the country.

But under such a good situation, there was such a turn.

In just half a month, the army of Shu Annihilation suffered a heavy setback, losing more than half of its troops, and the original good situation suddenly ceased to exist, and Xichuan County showed faint signs of losing it.

“The imperial court lost 50,000 troops, and even heard that Wu’an Marquis was also united by Li Xiong with two innate grandmasters of the Zhou Kingdom, and the siege was severely damaged.

Although he escaped by luck in the end, he was also seriously injured and it was difficult to do it in a short time.

More than half of the soldiers were lost, and the boss was seriously injured.

No matter how you look at it, this wave of the imperial court’s army of exterminating Shu is very hanging. ”

Lu Yuan looked at the message in his hand, and his brows couldn’t help but wrinkle.

He is now standing on the ship of the Great Yue Imperial Court, which capsized, and for him, although it will not sink with him, it is more or less a big loss.

After all, there are 15,000 soldiers and horses in hand?

Such a large force, as well as the resources that can be mobilized in today’s position, is not something that can be given up.

“But for now, even if the Pingshu army is completely destroyed, with the foundation of Dayue, it will not perish for a while, and it will be no problem to hold out for a few more years and decades.”

Just last month, when Wu Anhou led his army to attack Xichuan.

Liang Guo, who had been fighting with Dayue for nearly four years and had used nearly a million troops before and after, finally couldn’t support it.

Then after seeing that Dayue had almost calmed down the civil unrest, and the northern battlefield on his side could not achieve a breakthrough, he finally chose to retreat.

Now in the past January, it is estimated that most of the 400,000 Liang soldiers in northern Xinjiang have retreated.

They fought for four years and were tired of fighting.

At this time, even if he gets the news of Xichuan’s abnormality, it is unlikely that he will wave his troops south.

Otherwise, if it continues, I am afraid that within the Liang State, a large-scale rebellion will break out like the Yue State.

Without the threat of the Northern Liang State, the 300,000 troops stationed in Northern Xinjiang only needed to leave more than 100,000 garrisons in the frontier, and the remaining half could be vacated.

With more than 100,000 troops present, even if Western Shu attracts the Zhou Kingdom, it is unlikely that Dayue will retake Western Shu, but it is not much problem to keep the existing territory.

However, this is only for the time being.

If Zhou Guo is like Liang Guo, he will fight on Dayue and fight for another two or three years.

So no matter how strong the foundation of Dayue is, it can’t support such consumption, and it is bound to collapse.

“So now look at the Zhou Kingdom in the north, I just want to take Xichuan County, and then take it when I see good.” There is still a bigger plan, and I want to swallow Dayue in one bite. ”

Thinking about this, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but secretly shake his head, not optimistic about the future of Dayue in his heart.

Think about it too.

If he were the lord of the Zhou Kingdom, after seeing the frequent internal rebellions in Dayue and such a weak appearance externally, I was afraid that he would not be able to help it, and wanted to try to come up and take a bite.

Can bite, naturally the best, can directly swallow the big more than half of the river.

If you can’t bite, you can also take the Xichuan County that has already eaten and exit satisfied.

No matter how you look at it, Zhou Guo will have nothing to lose.

“There is also the situation in Dongting County, and even the situation in other counties of Dayue, I am afraid that it will be unstable.”

Lu Yuan thought of something else.

In the past few months, perhaps the Pingshu army has made successive successes, giving the imperial court great confidence.

Therefore, the news channel between Xichuan County and the outside world, which was originally blocked by Western Shu, was also reopened by the imperial court.

So the various situations in Nishikawa County were finally known to the outside world.

This approach, in the case of smooth sailing and successive victories in the imperial court, is naturally excellent.

The news of the victory in the war reached the rear, which could effectively boost the self-confidence of the domestic people and also hit the military morale of those rebels.

And that’s exactly what happened.

With the successive victories of the Pingshu army, the rebellions in Dongting County have died down a lot.

Some of the Miao rebels who were controlled by the Five Poisons Sect saw that the imperial court actually had the atmosphere of revival. Some timid tribes have begun to collect troops and go home, re-hiding in cottages, and becoming their own good citizens.

And the military leaders who gradually emerged in Dongting County also changed their previous domineering nature, and once again accepted the orders of the imperial court county government.

All this can be done on the premise that the imperial court has always achieved great victories.

Now Wu’an Hou was defeated, and the Pingshu army was lost by more than half.

This news can no longer be hidden, and after reaching the rear, the situation that has begun to gradually stabilize will definitely have twists and turns again.

This side of Dongting County is definitely going to become more chaotic.

The Miao people may be more arrogant, and careerists in some places will even be unable to resist standing up and learning from Li Xiong to claim the emperor’s rebellion.

Even other county capitals in the imperial court will emerge careerists like the Five Poisons Sect and stand up and rebel.

“It’s hard for the country.”

Thinking of these thousands of thoughts, Lu Yuan also had a headache.

But in the face of these problems, he can’t do anything.

In the end, Lu Yuan is just a first-class master, and at the same time he has mastered a miscellaneous general of 15,000 troops.

This power may be strong enough to affect the situation in one county and one province at the local level.

But if it is placed under the world, between countries, then it is nothing.

Not to mention the three kingdoms of Zhou, Liang, and Yue, then each has hundreds of thousands of troops.

Even the Five Poisons Sect in Dongting County, the hundreds of thousands of Miao rebels possessed by the other side, were not something Lu Yuan could deal with.

“So the strength is still not enough.”

After realizing his weakness again, Lu Yuan took a deep breath, suppressed these agitations in his heart, put down the news, returned to the quiet room, and continued to practice in retreat.

Since no matter how much he struggled, he couldn’t bother to care about these bad things.

The sky is falling, and there are tall people on top.

In this great Yue, there are naturally Emperor Hongdao, and those nobles to trouble.

He is just a local petty official, just a worker, what can he do for the boss’s worries?

……

With a clear understanding of himself, Lu Yuan continued to be an ascetic.

Now that he has completed the six meridians, he will continue to work hard to complete the remaining six canons within two months.

Then you can try to change to the more difficult scriptures.

And in addition to the transfer of exercises, the practice of Chiyang palm method, chiyang fingering method, and chiyang sword method cannot be left behind.

In the past two months, in addition to transferring the spiritual method, Lu Yuan has also set aside two hours a day to practice these three external moves.

After actual learning, the progress is also quite gratifying.

After all, his realm is here, especially since he has also practiced the Flowing Cloud Palm before, so there is a certain foundation in the palm technique.

Therefore, this time, Lu Yuan specially picked the Chiyang palm method to practice, and then relied on the experience base to quickly get started with this first-class palm method.

In just two months.

Although he didn’t dare to say that he had mastered the technique, some of the basic moves of this master’s palm method had also been learned.

I dare not say how powerful, but now that the six meridians that have completed the transformation, the moves they cooperate with have been able to be used completely and smoothly.

However, the deeper the Chiyang palm method, the deeper the learning is complicated, and the more meridians that are coordinated, the more knowledge and skills need to be mastered, and it is not as easy to practice as it is now.

It may take a longer time to practice this set of palm techniques than to practice the Chiyang Heart Method, and it is normal to practice for three or five years or even longer.

And if you want to complete the cultivation, the remaining two fingering techniques and sword techniques, then the time may be counted in ten years.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan’s other specialties are not available, that is, he can live.

This time is no problem for him, just stay up slowly.

As long as he has the goal of continuing to rise and advance, Lu Yuan’s mentality is quite flat in terms of improving his strength.

After all, he originally wanted to recruit troops and train the army, that is, to rob the exercises of those first-class sects.

Now that everything is in hand, there is naturally no hurry.

Of course.

If he finished practicing the Chiyang Divine Skill and saw the limit of the realm again, he would naturally prepare again and look for an opportunity to break through the innate.

But at that time, let him go to the Innate Sect, this is not dare.

Innate Grandmaster and first-class master, the gap between this is still very large.

Lu Yuan just wanted to improve the realm, and did not want to find death.

“So it is estimated that at that time, I should only choose to slowly study and create my own and rely on time to boil out an innate exercise, right?”

Thinking so in my heart, people are not depressed.

Still that sentence, now he is a very Buddha.

……

Here Lu Yuan is practicing in the Buddhist system, experiencing the transformation of the exercises every day, feeling the strength of the new Chiyang internal force, and spending every day in pleasure.

But he’s having a good time.

But the people in the outside world are very unhappy.

After receiving the news of the crushing defeat of the Pingshu army, the imperial court waited for half a month to determine that the Liang people did not make a comeback, but really retired.

Immediately, he dispatched 150,000 troops from Northern Xinjiang and quickly drove to Xichuan County to assist the Pingshu army, which had already been severely damaged.

At the same time, in other counties and places, there were also many careerists who saw the decline of the imperial court and could not help but stand up and rebel.

But these guys, the strongest are just ordinary first-class forces, and they do not have the kind of top-notch first-class or even innate strength to participate.

Therefore, when the rebellion emerged, it was mobilized by the county governments in various places and directly suppressed and extinguished.

Later, the imperial court may have seen its weakness, and slowly changed its original national policy.

According to the latest news from the Jingshi division.

It is reported that the Emperor Hongdao had sent official envoys to Linhai County, where Jingshi was located, to visit the local innate sect Baifeng Temple, and it was rumored that he planned to invite the innate grandmaster of this temple, the holy monk Jihui, to the capital to preach Buddhism.

But that’s just plain sight.

Secretly, rumors are circulating in the official face and rivers and lakes that the imperial court may want to canonize the Jihui Holy Monk as a protector of the country, and then use the power of the other party, and even the White Phoenix Temple behind the other party, to help the imperial court stabilize the increasingly chaotic world today.

If this matter can be accomplished, it may be that in the next step, the envoys of the imperial court will go to the Liuyang Sect of Yuzhang County, the Nanhai Sect of Nanhai County, and other innate sects.

In the end, maybe the imperial court will have several more national teachers.

In times of crisis, instead of saving the country with virtuous ministers, he turned to the reckless and monks of the rivers and lakes and made them a national master.

This operation, there is really a bit of a country that is about to die, and there will be a demon atmosphere.

Where can Dayue go in the end, let’s see.

Lu Yuan only sighed twice when he was drinking tea at leisure for these news, and then ignored them.

Regardless of whether its imperial court is a group of demons dancing, no matter how chaotic this world is, as long as Shaoyang Mansion is stable and the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands are stable, it is that the sky has turned upside down, and they will not do their own business.

However, he sat and watched the world rise and fall, and my self-indulgent days in the world only lasted three more months and had to come to an end.

Mid-month.

Just as the New Year was approaching, after more than three months of hard practice, Lu Yuan finally completed the transfer of the 12 canonical canons of the Chiyang Heart Method, and even transformed a strange sutra, successfully cultivating this mental method to a first-class realm.

At this point, although there were still two strange scriptures left that had not been converted, with this skill alone, he had once again reached the first-class realm.

But it was also at this time, without waiting for Lu Yuan to rejoice in order to make a major breakthrough in his spiritual cultivation, a bad news came.

“The Seven Star Gate of Luyang Mansion plotted against the rebellion, and now it has raised 30,000 troops and has captured the city of Luyang Mansion. At this time, he led his army to the north, and his troops approached Hengyang Fucheng.

Lord Junshou has already sent an order asking you to immediately lead your troops to Hengyang Mansion to suppress this rebellion. ”

In the barracks outside the city, the prefect Cui Changqing personally rushed over, pulled out Lu Yuan, who was leisurely in retreat, and said with a solemn face.
