Tian Yu and Ma Dai have long been familiar with each other, and the two of them picked out two of the war horses and jumped on them. Ma Chao couldn't wait to lead them to the barracks to see if the soldiers they had chosen were to their liking.

Before leaving, Shi Xin instructed that there was only one day to prepare for them, and one day later he would lead the army back to Qingzhou.

Just as he was about to turn around and enter the city, he suddenly saw Zhou Tai and Zhang Ning coming together, but the old monk Puci was missing.

The two approached each other, only to hear Zhang Ning mutter, "That old monk doesn't know what An's heart is, and he always pulls you to talk about some inexplicable Buddhism, which makes my head big when I hear it." It's not polite to be a man, and he didn't even say goodbye, and he didn't even see the last side of the lord. ”

Zhou Tai pulled his face and reprimanded: "Ning'er, you are becoming more and more presumptuous, and you are so rude to your elders. Also, what kind of stupid words are you talking about when you see the last time you see your lord?"

Zhang Ning rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue, "I said something wrong, and I didn't meet the lord in the end." Don't be surprised. ”

Shi Xin would have the same knowledge as her, and when she looked at Zhou Tai, she felt that the whole person was different.

"Youping, you ......"

Without waiting for Zhou Tai to answer, Zhang Ning had already rushed to say: "Congratulations to the lord, there is another eighth-class general under the seat." ”

"Really?"

Shi Xin looked at Zhou Tai with shiny eyes.

Zhou Tai scratched his head, "Yes...... It is the credit of Puci's predecessors. He studied Buddhism with me and instructed me in all kinds of external exercises. In particular, my predecessors gave me a high evaluation of the Great Compassion Palm that I created, and I personally pointed out the shortcomings in it. My lord, please see ......"

Zhou Tai's eloquence is not good, but fortunately, he has strong hands-on ability, and after speaking, he closed his mouth, sacrificed violent fist gloves, and punched the ground with his right hand.

Shi Xin saw that this was the Vajra boxing method, which was no different from usual. Unexpectedly, Zhou Tai hit halfway, turned his fist into a palm, and the fist wind turned into palm power, and he hit it with a bang.

Then, when the right hand turns into a fist, the left hand becomes a claw, and halfway through, it turns into a fist.

The hands are constantly changing, the voice is loud, and the attack and defense are in a good way with one fist and one palm, and the coordination is seamless. Not only that, but there are also some fingering techniques that combine rigidity and softness, and actions such as flicking, flicking, throwing, and whisking are endless, which is dazzling.

Although most of the moves are derived from the Vajra Fist Method, the Arhat Fist Method, and the Great Compassion Palm, there are basically no traces of the original moves, and they have suddenly become a new external move.

What surprised Shi Xin even more was that Zhou Tai's footsteps were sometimes separated, sometimes closed, jumping and sideways, obviously walking a magical footwork.

"The Puci seniors said that my Great Compassion Palm was created according to the Vajra Fist and Arhat Fist Method, and it happened to be used as a tandem move of these two fist techniques, combining the three external skills into one. We studied it for a long time, and then added the Guanyin fingering taught by our predecessors in the middle, and finally it evolved into this. Before leaving, the senior also taught me a special footwork, called the Demon Step, the lord should have seen it, right?"

Shi Xin nodded and said, "See, what is the reputation of this demon step?"

"The demons in Buddhism refer to evil spirits and gods that take people's lives and hinder good deeds. This kind of demon can refer to all the evil people who are against the Buddha, or it can be the inner demon, and it can also refer to all evil thoughts. The purpose of the Demon Suppression Step is to avoid all these demons and deal a heavy blow. Like this......"

After Zhou Tai finished speaking, he kicked out with his right foot, and suddenly stepped straight down to the right, bent his knees and half knelt. At the same time, the violent fist glove of the right hand emitted a brilliant golden light, intertwined with the original black qi and red flames, and a compassionate palm power was emitted, as if the Buddha had descended to subdue demons and demons.

With a "wave", a blasting sound suddenly sounded in the air, and Zhou Tai's palm power actually left his body, forming a palm print in the air that was exactly the same as the violent fist gloves, and pushed forward.

The palm print, with its burning, Dharma, its own strength and true qi, slowly flew in the air, becoming bigger and bigger, reaching its peak after being half a foot away from the body, and then gradually weakening.

Zhou Tai still did not stop, the sound of explosions came and went, all kinds of palm prints, fist prints, and finger prints were sent out by him, floating all over his body, not dispersed for a while, and it was spectacular.

When Zhou Tai showed his strength, Shi Xin used Tianyantong to check his latest attributes: eighth-rank zero weight, qualification 94, attack 140, defense 190. Newly acquired an external skill, Guanyin fingering, a footwork, subduing the demon step. Gain a new common talent, "Demon Circle".

Ordinary talent "Demon Circle": The range of one and a half zhang covered by the Demon Trap forms a special formation called the Demon Circle. The use of Buddhism's external skills in the demon circle increases the attack by one percent and the defense by two percent. In addition, the Demon Circle can inflict real damage on summoned objects or non-human objects.

Shi Xin has always been greedy for the old man's exercises, and seeing that Zhou Tai had stopped showing it, he picked up the lord's shelf and asked: "Youping, your demon subduing steps is good, if you teach someone in need in my army, such as me...... Don't get me wrong, it's not me, it's people like me, who will definitely raise the strength of our army to a higher level. ”

Zhou Tai said seriously: "Lord Mingjian." It's not that you're stingy, but in fact, Guanyin Finger and Fu Demon Step can only be practiced if you are proficient in Buddhism and a pure defensive pulse master. Puci's predecessor also said that this is almost his ability to press the bottom of the box......"

Hearing this, Shi Xin's face collapsed: This old monk, no wonder he slipped away so fast, it turned out that he was out of stock.

“...... When the seniors left, they left a sentence, let us try our best to break through the eighth rank, and after being promoted to the ninth rank, if we have the fate to meet, we will share the results of this return to Tianzhu. ”

Shi Xin suddenly became toothless and blind, and Lian Zhucang asked, "What kind of achievement? If you want to be promoted to the ninth rank of cultivation, it must be very powerful, right? Huh? What is the fate of encountering, where is this old man hiding?"

The old-timers did not explain. Let's just say that when we have risen to the ninth level and have studied the Dharma to a certain level, we naturally know where to find him. ”

"Hmph, this old man is always mysterious...... "Ask for a demon TXT."

When the three of them entered the city, they were greeted by three people, and the middle one was Zhao Yun.

The person on the left looks a few years older than Zhao Yun, he is majestic, magnificent, and sharp-eyed, and he looks like a person who has been in a high position for a long time. It's just that his expression looks a little lonely.

The man on the right has gray temples, but the hair in the rest of the place is black and shiny, the cheeks are thin, the skin is slightly dark, and the eyes are embarrassed. has a frosty face, and has the same lonely look as the person on the left.

As soon as Zhao Yun saw Shi Xin, he immediately introduced the two of them: "Lord, this is my second senior brother Zhang Ren, and this is the veteran Yan Yan." They did not hesitate to rush thousands of miles from Chengdu to Yecheng in order to surrender to our army. ”

Shi Xin had already guessed the identities of the two, and with the most amiable smile on his face, he excitedly shook the hands of the two and said: "The two great names are like thunder, I waited day and night in Yecheng, and finally looked forward to the two of them. ”

The two thought to themselves: Humanitarian Shi Xin is a young man, and when he sees it today, he is so young.

"Huh, what about the Fa Zheng and the Fa Xiao Zhi? Why don't you see him?"

Shi Xin had already received information that it was not only these two people who escaped from Chengdu that day, but also Fa Zheng.

Zhang Ren said abruptly: "Originally, we came out together, Mr. Xiaozhi had an appointment with Liu Xuande earlier, and he parted ways with us halfway and went to Xuzhou. ”

"That's a pity. ”

"Come, let's talk as we go......"

Shi Xin led the way in front, Zhang Ren was once the commander of the first army in Yizhou, even if he didn't have a relationship with Zhao Yun, he should pay attention to it. He brought Zhuge Liang and others over and introduced them to each other, and the governor's mansion laughed for a while.

Zhang Yan and the others also officially worshiped Shi Xin as the main father.

After gossiping for a while, Shi Xin brought up the conversation, "Fa Xiao went to Xuzhou directly, I'm afraid it will be empty, Liu Bei is dead." ”

Zhang Ren was taken aback, "Dead?" Although I have heard that Liu Xuande is ill, he is at the peak of his life, how can he say that he will die if he dies. ”

Shi Xin laughed, "It was five days ago, it is estimated that you are still on the way to Yecheng, and it has spread throughout the Han Dynasty at this moment." As soon as Liu Bei dies, the alliance between our two armies is estimated to collapse, and a major war is inevitable. ”

After speaking, I briefly introduced Liu Wu's secret report.

Yan Yan clenched his fists, and his voice was like a bell, "We are new to join, and the lord must send us to fight." Don't look at Yan Yan is old, the heart of going into battle to kill the enemy is much more eager than that of young people, as long as he is idle, he is uncomfortable. ”

Shi Xin smiled slightly, like a mirror in his heart, the more he said this, the more it proved that he was not convinced of old age.

"Well, General Yan's courage is commendable, and he is really a role model for young people. ”

The topic easily led to Zhang Lu, and Shi Xin was full of curiosity about the leader of the Zhengyi Sect and the new master of Yizhou.

Zhang Ren recalled the old things, and still had lingering palpitations: "On the day of the breaking of the city, Zhang Lu summoned the heavenly soldiers again. At that time, there was a shortage of soldiers, but I had already taken care of it. Where are soldiers descending from the sky, these gold-armored soldiers have actually been hiding behind them for a long time. Zhang Lu gave an order, and the soldiers in the front row scattered to the left and right, thus revealing themselves. ”

"As for Zhang Lu's arrangement, he just wants to create an illusion and cause panic among our soldiers, so that their morale will be low. As for the combat effectiveness of the Heavenly Soldiers, that is true. The golden armor can barely cut in, and their golden veins are also full of lethality, according to my estimates, they are at least at the level of a fifth- or sixth-rank vein master. The most terrifying thing is that the blood they shed is also golden, and after flowing for a while, the golden armor and wounds will heal automatically, and there is simply no way to start. I dare to say it, with these 3,000 heavenly soldiers, there are 50,000 troops. ”

Hearing this, everyone in the audience gasped. Especially Shi Xin, he knew that Zhang Ren and Yan Yan were both pragmatic people, and it was impossible to say big things. Although the north and Yizhou are far apart, they do not dare to exaggerate when they have not encountered.

Such an army reminded everyone of Sima Yi's corpse soldiers.

"Yunlu, you can talk about the corpse soldiers. We've seen each other from afar, but we haven't officially fought each other yet. ”

At this time, Ma Yunlu was also in front of the palace, and she was the only one who had seen the strength of the corpse soldiers.

Ma Yunlu was not stage frightened, and arched his hand: "My lord, the appearance of the corpse soldier is very different from the heavenly soldier, it is simply a demon from hell. There was a strong smell of blood all over his body, some of them lacked arms, some of them lacked eyeballs, in short, it was terrifying. But the same thing as the heavenly soldiers, they are not afraid of knives and guns, they are not afraid, and the wounds will heal quickly. ”

After that, she was already in tears, and choked up: "Many good men in my Ma family died at the hands of these demons, please ...... Please avenge our hatred. ”

"Yunlu rest assured, sooner or later there will be that day. ”

Ma Yunlu bowed back. The corner of his eyes casually glanced forward, and saw that Zhao Yun was also frowning with thick eyebrows, looking indignant, and his heart was secretly promised, and two red clouds rose on his face.

Shi Xin saw it in his eyes and was happy in his heart, Ma Yunlu was tall, good-looking, and a woman who did not let her eyebrows go, not the little daughter who was in a coy manner, but indeed a good match for Zhao Yun. It's hard to say that he, the master, wants to be a matchmaker and help the two pull and pull the relationship.

After a while, the group disagreed.
