Chapter 33: The Three Verses
We solved a small trouble, and now we have a big one.
This is Zhou Huan's words, and Princess Pingyang actually agrees with it now.
After conquering Chuzhou City, Princess Pingyang found that more troubles were coming, including personnel, money, grain and grass, and local gentry...... All of this gave Princess Pingyang a headache.
Princess Pingyang, who grew up in the deep palace, has only dealt with some small problems of the palace maids around her at most, how can she ever encounter so many things? Although many of them can be solved by her subordinates, she naturally understands the consequences if she is completely decentralized.
Sometimes, even if it's wrong, it's up to you to decide.
I really want to leave, just like Zhou Huan said.
After occupying Chuzhou City, Zhou Huan gave Princess Pingyang a proposal to run.
But not the run of three thousand, but the rapid retreat of several dozen.
The biggest problem in the troubled times lies in the chaos of order, when the time comes, there will be wolf smoke everywhere, enemies everywhere, and a mixed team of 3,000 people will be attacked like fat when they go there, and now the only way to survive is to fight a time difference, taking advantage of the news of the civil strife in the Northern Dynasty has not yet spread, a dozen or so people rode fast horses, brought enough gold and silver, and quickly fled to the Southern Dynasty.
This is Zhou Huan's private proposal to the princess, the number of people can't be more, more than thirty people will slow down the speed and attract the attention of all levels at the same time.
This is the only way for the princess to take the initiative to get out, and she can only hope for the arrangement of fate if she stays where she is. But it is not easy to wait, at most within ten days the news of chaos spreads, and the warlords in various places will take the initiative to cut off the traffic, and they will not be able to walk at that time. ”
It's a pity that Princess Pingyang didn't plan to escape alone.
She was the leader of these 3,000 people, many of whom were willing to follow her to the Northern Wei Dynasty, and if she wanted to leave these people behind and flee, she would rather die here.
"Princess, please use tea. ”
The maid beside her whispered, this girl has been with Princess Pingyang for ten years, the two are like sisters, and they are willing to come to the Northern Wei Dynasty with Princess Pingyang.
"Xiaoqian, go out for a walk with me. ”
After saying this, Princess Pingyang took Xiao Qian and a monk beside her and walked out.
Another place.
"Zhou Hanlin, I didn't expect your swordsmanship to be good, much more rules than us. ”
In the courtyard of the bluestone slab, a large group of men gathered in a group, watching the battle between Zhou Huan and an officer.
The battle is not fierce, mainly based on comparisons, Zhou Huan uses wooden swords, soldiers use wooden knives, Zhou Huan fights with him, while telling what is the upper style, what is the lower style, and at the same time how to use the muscles to better use the knife and sword.
Articles in troubled times are not worth much, and the real hard currency is strength. After Zhou Huan killed Helian Chunshui that day, many soldiers looked at Zhou Huan with envy, and some even asked Zhou Huan privately what swordsmanship he had learned.
Zhou Huan was not hypocritical, but took advantage of this opportunity to get acquainted with those soldiers. The exchange of cold weapons proficient has stuffed a lot of modern fighting knowledge into Zhou Huan's mind, such as kendo, swordsmanship, gunnery and other things that have been sorted out by modern systems, which are simple and effective, and they are also very reasonable.
In this era of information blockage, the sword and gun skills taught in the army are just a few times that come and go, and those who have unique skills treasure the stunts as treasures, and don't even think about it if they want to be taught.
It's easy to say if it's in the calm Southern Dynasty, but now in the turbulent Northern Dynasty, that soldier doesn't want to work hard to improve his skills, and how many stunts are invincible on the battlefield?
"It's not as good as you, my strength is not good, it's more just empty talk. ”
Zhou Huan took the towel from a soldier's hand and wiped the beads of sweat off his face.
"Zhou Hanlin, what genre are you from, do you have any name?"
Someone on the side asked, his face full of courtesy.
"There is no genre, and everyone knows that I am Hanlin, and I have browsed countless Taoist classics in the royal family, and among them I have found some military books and atlases that have been circulated since ancient times, and after summarizing them, there is what you are learning now. ”
"Summarization?"
The doorman heard the voice of Princess Pingyang, and she asked softly.
"Is it swordsmanship?"
"No, it's a martial arts classic, and I'll name it the Three Points True Scripture. ”
At this time, those soldiers talked about Zhou Huan's knowledge, and in the past few days, Zhou Huan not only showed swordsmanship, but also spearmanship, knife skills, and even some unpopular skills.
"Three points of the true scripture? Does it represent one of the three points of the world's martial arts, or does it account for three points out of ten?"
It was the Taoist next to Princess Pingyang who spoke, and he was in high spirits He was a sacrificial wine taught by the Southern Heavenly Master, and his swordsmanship was excellent - it was a pity that there were no martial arts secrets in this era as Zhou Huan imagined, as for the Jiuyin True Scripture, Jiuyang Divine Skill and other things, it was like the era of ancient China, hand-to-hand combat with real swords and guns.
"Sun Daochang said wrong, the three-point true scripture is because it is divided into three volumes, I have collected some of the martial arts experience I have sorted out in this true scripture, the upper volume is a skill class, that is, a variety of swordsmanship, spearmanship, boxing, etc., just the experience of the predecessors, not worth mentioning. ”
"What about the middle book?"
"Some True Qi breathing methods, people's flesh is very fragile, no matter how much you practice polishing, there are limits, and breathing methods are an attempt to break through the limits. ”
After Zhou Huan's words were finished, Zhang Daochang's face had become very serious, and he saluted Zhou Huan deeply and said, "Zhou Hanlin, please give me advice." ”
"It's not about teaching or not teaching, it's just a little personal experience. Zhang Zhenren doesn't have to be polite, when the matter is understood, I will talk to Zhang Zhenren more. ”
Zhang Zhenren is a Taoist who voluntarily went to the Northland, and admires this person Zhou Huan very much, he is a bit similar to Qiu Chuji, more of a compassionate heart, hoping to make Hu people do less killing (about the real Qiu Chuji in history, you can take a look at some popular science).
"The poor monk also has some experience in martial arts, and I don't know if I can participate in it. ”
It was another monk who spoke, and his words made Zhou Huan nod.
In this era, monks will also wear Zen sticks and swords when they go out, and their fighting ability is very strong, and this big monk is even more of a fighting master, Zhou Huan estimates that he may not be able to beat this big monk.
No one present asked what the next volume of the Three Points Sutra was about, although Zhou Huan didn't think about whether the Three Points Sutra was written or not, and the reason why he released this gimmick was to make himself look more unpredictable.
When he was in Black Africa, Zhou Huan saw how to pretend to be a ghost, or how to pretend to be a ghost on a meager level, which can make a person quickly have many fans.
Princess Pingyang looked at Zhou Huan like this, looking at the confidence on his face.
Only talent lives up to people, maybe it's such a person.
"Three points of truth?"
When Princess Pingyang and the others returned to their residence, the whole person was still thinking about the four words Zhou Huan said.
In this era, there are very few literate people, and there are not many people who dare to write books and pass on them, and there are even fewer people who dare to add the words of the true scriptures to the books, which is something that even today's prime ministers or Confucians dare not do, and Zhou Huan actually dares to do this!
"Zhang Zhenren, look at Zhou Hanlin'......"
"Please call Zhou Hanlin Mr. Zhou in the future, his talent is enough to be called this title. ”
Blinking, Princess Pingyang nodded, waiting for Zhang Zhenren's explanation.
"It's easy to say simple things complicated, I have a lot of martial arts ancestral seventy-two styles, thirty-six paths, etc., in fact, in the final analysis, it is just a dozen or so times that come and go, and finally expand to many routines. Some of the things that Mr. Zhou told are heirlooms in some families, and they are very simple, and they can be finished in a few clicks, which is really powerful. ”
