Chapter 45: Discovery and Dating
In the next three days, Li Ming refused Xunfu's invitation three times. However, he also wrote down the "Thirty-six Strategies" silently, half-literate and half-white, and directly sent someone to send it to Xunfu.
Thinking that "Tiger Power Attack Gun" also suited the other party's appetite, the next day Xun sent back two volumes of silk books, but inside were the Chinese version of "Thirty-six Strategies" and the vernacular version. The latter has a lot of detailed explanations, and it is obvious that Xun Qi also has the meaning of imparting experience.
Regarding this vernacular "Thirty-six Strategies", after Zhang Mo read it, Li Ming's status in his heart was directly raised to the level of worship, and his loyalty naturally did not need to be said, and it directly exploded.
"Do you need it? It's just thirty-six stratagems! Li Ming enjoyed his lunch, and his food had nothing to do with him.
"The lord doesn't know how difficult it is for children of poor families like me to learn the art of war! Even if you surrender your identity to others as a scholar, you won't be able to browse this art of war! Zhang Mo also picked up a piece of meat, put it in his mouth and said slowly.
What kind of soldiers did the generals bring, it was obvious that the soldiers and generals under Li Ming's command were all damaged by him.
After thinking about it, Zhang Mo continued: "Lord, after many days of reading, the intelligence and dominance of his subordinates have increased by two points each!" ”
Li Ming was stunned for a moment, then immediately opened the subordinate interface, and sure enough, he found that Zhang Mo's attributes had changed:
Zhang Mo LV11, experience 8120/10000, HP1250/1250, MP300/300. Brawn: 60, Dexterity: 65, Intelligence: 60, Domination (79), Charisma (72).
"You seem to be reading books these days, right? Didn't practice martial arts? Li Ming couldn't help asking.
"My subordinates are indeed reading books, and they are also training soldiers at other times, so I really don't have much time to practice martial arts!" Zhang Mo replied.
The level has been increased by 1 level, so there are 2 more free attribute points, which should be added to the Domination. In this way, Zhang Mo's intelligence and domination have indeed automatically increased by two points...... Could it be that it has something to do with reading?
Zhang Mo obviously realized this, so he reported it. This information is very useful to Li Ming, after all, whether it is dominance or intelligence, Li Ming is very lacking! But before this, I didn't know how to improve, and I couldn't spend the extra free genus on dominance and intelligence, right?
"Okay, I'll take the time to read well......" Li Ming was a little distressed, he spent almost all of his three days on cooking and martial arts, and it was rare to have a little time, and he would also go to the medical hall to find a medical craftsman to learn to distinguish medicinal materials and dispense medicines.
Cooking is increased to LV5, dispensing is increased to LV7, Gale Breaker is raised to LV6, Tiger Strike is raised to LV5, Qi Healing is increased to LV2, Bow is raised to LV5, and the key is to increase the Hybrid Formula to LV3!
Learn new prescriptions: Ginseng Eiyang Pill (restores 200 HP), Vitality Pill (restores 50 MP).
The biggest problem is that the cost of ginseng Rong Yang Pill is not low, a small amount of configuration is fine, and a large amount of it will definitely go bankrupt! Fortunately, the first batch of hemostatic drugs has been handed over to Xin Bi for sale, and he has also been entrusted to continue to help purchase medicinal materials.
As for the vitality agent, it was Li Ming who figured it out by himself, and it was mainly a medicine or he identified it himself, and the name of this flavor medicine was 'Epimedium Weed', which was not something that could be put on the table.
When the archery is LV5, a new bow skill is derived: random shooting LV1, which needs to be equipped with a bow and arrow, which consumes 10 arrows to shoot rapidly at the specified odd or plural targets, causing 50% damage per branch and a hit rate of 10%. Consumes 10 MP points and has a cooldown of 20 seconds.
Li Ming calculated, 10 arrows shoot almost one arrow per second, this speed is actually very good!
At the end of lunch, Zhang Mo naturally said goodbye and left, Li Ming opened the attribute interface and looked at it, at this moment, the force had increased to 64 points, and the holding of the Five Tiger Soul Breaking Gun reached 74 points. It should be considered the level of a second-rate general, right?
Agility has increased to 64 points, and it seems that it can be used in a short period of time! Looking at the intelligence and dominance that were less than 60 points, especially the annoying 54 points of charm, Li Ming felt that before he officially set out on the expedition, maybe he really had to arm his brain with knowledge!
During this time, Zhang Mo asked several times about what he didn't understand in the Analects, and Li Ming slowly read some of it. Reading in sentences is not a problem, and a book can barely be read. At this moment, the "Analects" has not been emasculated like later generations, and if you look closely, there are indeed many principles for living in the world, and it is also appropriate as an enlightenment reading.
The really hard thing to bite is probably the fragment of Sun Tzu's Art of War. It's only the first five chapters, but Li Ming's head is big, and in comparison, "The Book of Songs" or "On Salt and Iron" is relatively easy to read.
After gnawing for a long time, that is, reading it hastily, Li Ming felt that he was really not the material for reading! Since graduating from college, or even after going to college, I feel that I haven't really been able to put my mind on studying!
"General, there's a maid outside the camp, I've brought you this!" Some soldiers came directly to the tent and denied a thing.
"Okay, what else did she say?" Li Ming took it, but it was a trick, so he asked.
"Just say, you'll know what you're looking in!" The pro-soldier thought back to the later report.
Li Ming motioned for his soldiers to leave, then turned around and returned to the camp, and opened the bag to find a note inside. Caihou paper has been around for a while, and it's not strange to have a note, but this thing is a real aristocratic thing, and ordinary people can't afford to use it at all, and the key paper quality is very brittle, and it is difficult to store it for a long time.
When I opened the note, there was only one sentence on it: "The Friendship of Youxu, the Riverside Ferry"
Li Ming, a friend of Youxu, knew that in simple terms, it was the period from 18 o'clock to 18:59 in the afternoon. Look at the time, there are less than four hours to arrive, according to the content, it should be at the ferry outside Yingyang City (later Yingyang Town) to meet.
The handwriting is very delicate, which means that it should be from a woman's hand, this bag should have been collected by the owner before, and even Li Ming could smell a faint body fragrance.
"I really don't know, which family is deeply resentful, admires her prestige, and wants to see but can't see it, so she did this kind of action!" Li Ming smiled, and then sniffed the bag deeply, the taste was really sweet.
Anyway, as long as it's not a dinosaur. At six o'clock in the afternoon, the sun did not go down, but there was a sense of 'people about after dusk', which was romantic!
"Come on, order three hundred soldiers, and come with me!" Although Li Ming is very interested in going to the appointment, he definitely doesn't want to suddenly find out that it is a scam when he is dating.
Although, his position and ability are not worth playing this hand with others. Of course, if it was true, it would naturally be a bit abrupt, so Li Ming just asked them to follow from afar, and did not follow him.
Seeing that the time had come, Li Ming came directly to the ferry outside the city, and there was no one here. The city is traditionally closed after an hour, but most of the people in the vicinity no longer enter or leave the city.
"You're here?" At the ferry, a woman in a brocade dress asked shyly.
"Although you are also very cute, please invite your master out!" Li Ming sniffed it from afar, and then smiled.
