Chapter 46: The Threshold of the Rigid Body

After repelling the very tricky Min mountain people, Zhang Huang immediately returned to Dongshi Village with the Wang brothers and others, after all, the South Vietnamese Min people participated in the scout war, which was a big disaster for their entire scout team, and if they didn't pay attention to it, they would probably be wiped out here.

What made Zhang Huang feel a little unexpected was that when he returned to the stronghold of Dongshi Village, he found that Li Tong, Chen Zhi, Zang Ba, Tai Shici and other companions who had gone out to hunt enemy scouts had already returned, and several people gathered at the place of the chief Lu Min, and took the first step to inform Lu Min about the encounter with a tricky opponent on the way.

"Unknown people have joined the fray?" After listening to the reports of his subordinates, Lu Min's expression turned a little different.

In the past few days, because he believed in the individual ability and command ability of Zhang Huang, Chen Zhi, Li Tong and others, Lu Min always maintained an attitude of delegating power, and asked Zhang Huang and others to investigate the information of the rebels instead of him, while he himself sat in Dongshi Mountain, responsible for building this small mountain village with a radius of only more than 100 lengths into an iron bucket-like defense. And now, as soon as he heard that Zhang Huang and others had suffered losses at the hands of the enemy, how could Lu Min not be shocked.

"It doesn't look like a citizen of my Han Dynasty, but it looks like an externalized barbarian. His hair was waist-length, he was dressed in animal skins, and the bows and knives he used were shoddy when I peeked at a distance...... But these people are amazing! Shan Fu said in an unprecedentedly stern tone.

Before the words fell, Chen Zhi added next to him, "I won't mention the weapons for the time being, but those people are quite agile...... The intuition is also amazing, it's like a beast, I was obviously well hidden, but I was found by the other party......"

"And poison." Li Tong couldn't help but interrupt Chen Dao's words and said, "These people smeared poison on bows, arrows, and knife edges, which was extremely poisonous, and I saw with my own eyes that the strong poison caused a deer to fall to the ground and die in an instant. ”

Listening to the subordinates recounting their experiences word by word, Uncle Lu Min's expression became more and more solemn, and after a long time, he muttered, "Could it be the Min mountain people?" ”

"Min mountain people?" Zang Ba's face was full of doubts.

Lu Min exhaled slowly and said in a deep voice, "Although I serve as a county lieutenant in Hailing County, Guangling County, I am originally from Shanyin in Huiji County. I once heard that in the south of Huiji County, there lived a group of tribal mountain people who did not obey our Han teachings, and I and other locals disparagmatically called them Minshan monkeys...... Those mountain monkeys are all good at trekking through mountains and rivers, tracking prey, and are natural hunters, and the old and weak women and children all know how to use **, snake venom to configure strong poison, and those who touch it will die...... How could they have anything to do with the rebels? Speaking of this, Lu Min's face showed a look of annoyance.

Tai Shi Ci saw the strangeness and asked curiously, "Has the uncle fought with those people?" ”

Lu Min shook his head and said lightly, "No, but I heard that the county town south of Huiji County once fought with the Min mountain people, sent five hundred people to conquer and suppress, and even set fire to Min Mountain, as a result, none of the five hundred soldiers came back." ”

"What's so strange about that?" Chen Zhi muttered a little unconvinced, after all, in his opinion, the Taishan thief he admired had also done this, so that the hundreds of county soldiers in Taishan County who went to conquer had not returned.

"One day!" Lu Min looked at Chen Zhi and added.

"What?"

"I said only one day! On the night when the 500 county soldiers set fire to the mountain, the Min mountain people took revenge, killed the 500 soldiers in the camp, and piled up the corpses outside the county before sunrise! ”

"......" Chen Zhi opened his mouth, but was speechless.

Glancing at Chen Dao, who was a little stunned, Zang Ba frowned and asked, "Let's not talk about this first, Uncle Lu, what should I do until now?" As far as we know, the so-called Min mountain people have sent at least 200 rebels this time, which is no less than 200 elite soldiers......"

It's no wonder that Zang Ba is so anxious, after all, in just the first round of confrontation, they lost nearly half of their brothers in the twenty accounts, and the other party was unbelievably not a single person was reduced. I have to say that the proportion of casualties between the enemy and the enemy is really too large. What's even worse is that even Zhang Huang, Chen Dao, and Li Tong, the twenty-six tent soldiers, are not completely sure that they can be born in the case of one-on-one encounters with the Min mountain people, after all, the other party's poison is too terrible, and a strong soldier can be killed on the ground in an instant.

"Report this information to General Yang Qi and ask him to decide!" After thinking about it for a long time, Lu Min sighed slightly.

This is the sorrow of being a low-level military attachΓ©, although Lu Min clearly knows that in the face of the strong opponent of the Min mountain people, Dongshi Mountain is no longer a place where he can enter and exit freely like a back garden, but he also has to follow the previous order to defend this place. Because his rank has not reached the point of being a general, it is impossible for him to decide on the implementation of tactics based on his own subjective judgment. The implication is that if Yang Qi, the general of the military field camp, orders him to stay in Dongshi Village, then even if the whole army is finally annihilated, Lu Min will have to act according to the order, which makes the military order as heavy as a mountain.

"Arm." Waving his hand, Lu Min said with some interest, "Set up traps in the area of my Dongshi Village, hoping to delay the time for those mountain monkeys to find me." ”

Chen Zhi and the others did not speak, because they could hear the deep meaning of Lu Min's words. Delay the time for the Min mountain people to find here? And if you find it? I'm afraid it will be a bloody storm.

Who dares to pack a ticket and say that they will definitely be able to escape in the hands of that group of Min mountain people?

Probably realizing something, the soldiers gradually dispersed in a low mood, although the survival was slim, but they still listened to Lu Min's words, and fought for the little time they had to add traps in the vicinity as much as possible. This is the only way they can fight back, although the odds of success are slim.

"Wait, Lu Tou."

Just as everyone was about to retreat, Zhang Huang finally shouted out to stop Lu Min, who was about to leave and go with the soldiers to set up a trap.

"Something?" Lu Min turned his head and looked at Zhang Huang suspiciously, after all, Zhang Huang had been silent since he first started, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"That's the case, when Fang Cai came back, the team I led also met a Min mountain man in your mouth......" After sorting out his thoughts, Zhang Huang said what Fang had just experienced, including that he inexplicably burst out of his body with a layer of transparent armor that seemed to be an illusion, and shot down the poisonous arrow shot by the Min mountain man out of thin air.

"Is that so?" Lu Min's eyes were about to pop out when he heard this, and he looked Zhang Huang up and down in amazement, and muttered, "[Rigid body]? You...... You actually cast [Rigid Body] on your own? ”

"Sure enough, it's [Rigid]?" Zhang Huang muttered in surprise and relief.

Zang Ba and the others next to him heard it clearly, and they were dumbfounded when they heard this, after all, the rigid body is a strong stunt of martial artists, when he was in Taishan County, the captain Ma Yan relied on this stunt to make Xu Xun, the leader of the Taishan Army, fight with his life and be difficult to defeat.

And Tai Shici, who joined the Black Feather Crow halfway, had never seen Ma Yan's power, but when he heard Zhang Huang say that he used his rigid body to shoot down the poisonous arrows of the Min mountain people, he had an idea and shouted in surprise, "Leader, you said that the rigid body can break the poisonous arrows of those Min mountain people?" If this is the case, we only need to master the rigid body, so why be afraid? It's a big deal, a few of us fought those more than 200 people alone after learning the rigid body! ”

Tai Shi Ci's words are also well-founded, after all, if you want to learn the martial arts of rigid body, you must master the prerequisite of qi, and Zhang Huang and the six members of the Black Feather Crow have now gradually comprehended the way to use battle qi, as for who to learn from, isn't there a best teacher in front of you?

Subconsciously, everyone looked at Uncle Lu Min with earnest eyes, after all, when Lu Min first took over their twenty-six tents, he had stood in the tent and let several veterans punch and kick, although those veterans used all their strength, but they couldn't hurt Lu Min at all, but those people were injured in their hands and bones. To say that Lu Min did not use a rigid body at that time, he did not believe that he killed Zhang Huang and others.

Facing the eager and expectant eyes of several loving soldiers, Lu Min's face was suddenly full of wry smiles.

"I'm a rigid body, and I know how to teach it to others, the question is...... You're not up to the standard of learning rigid bodies. ”

"And the standard?"

"What standard?" Li Tong and Chen Zhi asked impatiently. After all, this is related to whether they can survive the poisonous arrows of the Min mountain people, and they can't help but care.

"Don't worry, don't worry, listen to me slowly." To appease the anxious soldiers, Lu Min asked Zhang Huang rhetorically, "Since you said that you have inadvertently displayed a rigid body...... Tell me how you felt at the time. ”

"Feelings?" Zhang Huang frowned and thought about it, and said intermittently, "I was in a hurry at that time...... The poisoned arrow is in front of me, and ...... And then I just squeezed my fist...... I don't know why, I used it. As for the feeling...... It's kind of like a piece of armor on your body......"

Lu Min smiled when he heard this, nodded in affirmation, and said, "Yes, it is this feeling that covers your whole body like armor and resists all threats from all directions. Unscathed, that's what the rigid body intended. So let me ask you, what do you think is the hallucinatory transparent armor made of? ”

"Gas?" Zhang Huang is such a smart person, as soon as he heard Lu Min's question, he immediately thought of the answer.

"Yes, it's the gas!" Lu Min nodded, then pointed to his abdomen and said in a deep voice, "Qi, which originates from the sea of qi and travels through the meridians of the whole body. It is difficult for ordinary people to detect because the qi in their qi sea is too weak. To make it stronger, it requires a process of 'air bleed'. ”

"Induce?" Chen Zhi asked thoughtfully, "What is qi induction?" ”

"I don't know exactly how it is, anyway, my qi at that time was gradually getting stronger, and I can't explain how it became stronger." After speaking, seeing the actions of the love pawns rolling their eyes, Lu Min was also a little embarrassed, and hurriedly skipped this article with a cough and continued, "It's not enough to just 'induce qi', you must learn to 'refine the body' in order to exert a rigid body, and the first step of 'refining the body' is to warm up the 'marrow qi'......"

"Breath?" The crowd was puzzled.

Seeing this, Lu Min smiled and asked, "Do you really think that the qi that travels through the meridians in the body can be used at will?" That's people's 'anger', with one point is weak, with ten points, even your little life can't be saved. Moreover, 'vitality' is all over the countless meridians flowing through the body, sometimes strong and sometimes weak, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and it is impossible to control it at all, how to use it to exert a rigid body? ”

"What does Lu Tou mean?" Zhang Huang vaguely understood.

Glancing around at everyone, Lu Min did not hide his selfishness, and said truthfully, "When 'anger' flows through the meridians in the body, there will be some of it contained in the muscles and bones, and the muscles are not the places where the breath can be nourished, but the bones are hollow, and the qi can exist with the marrow, which is called the marrow qi." The secret of using the rigid body is to instantly cause the myeloid qi to swell and spread, passing through the muscles and bones and directly reaching the outside of the body...... Because it follows the shape of a human bone, the rigid body can be all-encompassing, without any defensive dead ends. ”

"Got it?" Glancing at the stunned beloved soldiers, Lu Min sighed slightly and said, "It's not that I don't teach you privately, it's just that you and others who have just reached the stage of 'qi induction' are still weak in bone marrow, even if I teach them, you can't use them." You haven't reached the standard of learning rigid bodies yet! ”

"......" Chen Zhi, Li Tong and others looked at each other, and their mood was inevitably a little depressed.
