Section 6: The division of warriors
"What, you're just a third-rate martial artist!"
In the woods, a teenager made a startled sound. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man's "hehe" laughter sounded, "Young master, third-rate and second-rate first-class, in fact, ordinary martial artists put gold on their faces, compared to real masters, everyone just doesn't enter the stream!"
These two were none other than Lu Gu and Fang Yan, and the two were talking to each other while hurrying.
Fang Yan saw Lu Gu's martial arts, he was shocked, he must claim to be his subordinate, after the two talked a few times, Lu Gu gradually understood Fang Yan's thoughts, but he no longer resisted the other party's title.
After the identity of the two was confirmed, they became much closer when they talked, especially Fang Yan, all the actions along the way were only Lu Gu Ma's head, he was an old man on the rivers and lakes, and he was mostly out in his life, and in the past two days, whether it was camping or foraging, Fang Yan had arranged it properly.
Lugu couldn't be more satisfied.
Lu Gu learned about various things in the Northern Qi Dynasty from Fang Yan's mouth, and he was especially interested in martial artists.
Martial arts are a kind of cultivation system, which is almost completely unrelated to those immortal cultivators of the Cloud Snatching Sect.
The cultivation of martial artists is actually a process of continuous improvement of physical strength.
Fang Yan was not talkative, but he answered all of Lu Gu's questions thoroughly.
Regarding Lu Gu's mention, the warriors of the Northern Qi Kingdom.
That's how Fang Yan described it.
"In the Northern Qi Kingdom, martial arts practice is nothing more than tempering the meridians, veins, flesh, skin, and bones, and the body is like a container, the stronger the container, the greater the power it can hold, so the martial artist is walking on a path of constantly improving his body and strength. Legend has it that the martial arts powerhouses in ancient times cultivated martial arts to the extreme, and could break mountains and rivers with one punch, break rivers with one kick, and even destroy a forest with one breath. β
Lu Guwen's change of color, this is simply sensational.
If this is the energy of a true martial arts cultivator, it is by no means weaker than those immortal cultivators who claim to be superior.
"However, that's all the legendary realm!" Fang Yan said with a smile, "Realistically speaking, in the current Northern Qi Kingdom, martial artists are divided into ordinary martial artists and inbound martial artists. β
"I want to hear about it!" Lugu said hurriedly.
Fang Yan stared at the former strangely, but he didn't think too much about it, maybe the young master didn't know anything about the situation of the martial artists of the Northern Qi Kingdom because he came from the Western Xia Kingdom.
"Ordinary martial artists are actually ordinary martial arts practitioners, and in the eyes of truly skilled martial artists, martial arts practitioners are not qualified to be called martial artists because they have not yet started. In their eyes, only martial artists who have entered the country can be called martial arts cultivators. It is a pity that although the Northern Qi Kingdom is still martial arts, and almost all men, women and children practice martial arts, it is a pity that most of them have limited talents, and they have only stayed at a relatively shallow level for many years. These people have ordinary qualifications and account for the vast majority of martial artists, so they are called ordinary martial artists. In addition, most people have limited resources, and most of the martial arts they practice are inferior martial arts, except for strengthening the body, they can't practice anything famous at all, and the slightly more sophisticated intermediate martial arts, the essence of their martial arts has become difficult to understand, and it is difficult to practice results without the guidance and guidance of masters. As a result, ordinary martial artists can only remain ordinary!"
Speaking of this, Fang Yan's tone was full of heaviness and unwillingness, because he himself was a typical example of an ordinary martial artist, he had cultivated the Wind Sword Technique alone for more than ten years, and had participated in more than 100 battles in the rivers and lakes, except for the improvement in the sword technique, there was no improvement in strength and body at all.
"In this way, the so-called ordinary martial artists are actually not in the stream!" Lu Gu sighed.
"The young master is right. Fang Yan smiled bitterly, "In the eyes of a true master, we are naturally out of the stream." However, if you don't enter the stream, you can't enter the stream, watermelons are also divided into three, six, nine and so on, not to mention the large number of martial arts practitioners, in order to distinguish the martial arts between each other, they are divided into three stages, which are first-class martial artists, second-rate martial artists and third-rate martial artists. β
"On the basis of the division?"
"It's simple - strength, record. β
Fang Yan gave an example, and the selection criteria of the Northern Qi army can illustrate this problem.
Third-rate warriors, generally known as samurai, were eligible to enter the Northern Qi army as an ordinary soldier. The condition is that the body strength reaches the flesh is small, the muscles and veins are strong, the skin and flesh are strong, and the bones are thick, referred to as the skin and flesh are thick, and the strength can reach the strength of half a cow (about 300 catties).
Such a person can be regarded as successful in martial arts, and he can fight against jackals, tigers and leopards alone with weapons in his hand, and dozens of ordinary strong men and other idle men cannot enter the body of third-rate martial artists.
Second-rate martial artists, generally known as martial artists, can serve as a team leader in the army, and their standards are that the flesh is complete, the skin and flesh are tough and film-formed, the muscles and bones are hard like iron, and the recovery of muscles and veins is amazing, even if it is hit hard, it will slowly recover, and the strength is enough to have the power of 1 ox (about six or seven hundred catties), and can use the horn bow This heavy weapon of about five stones.
When an ordinary martial artist reaches such a realm, he can be called a good hand, and he can be regarded as the elite of ordinary martial artists, and he will not be able to reach it in his lifetime without a lot of hard work. In terms of pure physical strength, one martial artist is worth several samurai, and if you are more powerful, you can fight ten at a time. On the rivers and lakes, as long as you can easily defeat 1-3 samurai, and you can easily deal with the siege of more than a dozen samurai, and you will not fall behind, you are a samurai.
First-class martial artists are called great martial artists, they are the best of ordinary martial artists, they can serve as captains in the army, and they hold the power of life and death of hundreds of soldiers.
The strength of first-class martial artists is much better than the previous two, they have already refined the meridians, veins, flesh, skin, and bones of their bodies, and their physical fitness has improved a lot, and their strength is 1 to several times that of second-rate martial artists. The body has reached the pinnacle of physical cultivation, it can be called a humanoid weapon, almost invulnerable, tearing copper and iron vessels with bare hands, and carrying a heavy bow of more than ten stones, it can easily shoot martial artists and samurai.
In terms of martial arts, they know their bodies well, and once they get their hands on all kinds of low-level martial arts and blades, they are also quickly perfected and bypassed.
Great martial artists are also rare in the rivers and lakes, and they belong to the masters of ordinary martial artists, they have a certain ability to dominate and teach, so first-class martial artists are qualified to serve as captains in the army.
"Strength, body!" Lu Gu's previous life traveler, except for watching some martial arts novels and movies, didn't know what martial arts were at all, but after listening to Fang Yan's words, he was thoughtful.
"So, what is an inbound martial artist?"
"I don't know very well!After all, I haven't seen the strength of an incoming martial artist with my own eyes!" Fang Yan showed a hint of astringency on his face,
"But I heard that the original martial arts master (the master's surname is Du, he is a martial artist) said that the meaning of entry is to obtain a new kind of power that completely surpasses his original ability on the basis of physical strength, and that power contains the great power between heaven and earth, once it is obtained by a martial artist, as long as he keeps cultivating, sooner or later he will soar into the sky and become a real martial arts powerhouse!"
"Entry, new power!" Lugu said in thought.
"Hearing you say that, I seem to understand a little!"
"The young master naturally understands, your Tai Chi Fist is infinitely mysterious, and if you cultivate to the depths, you will definitely be able to break through the mirror and become a real martial artist!" Fang Yan said with envy. Although his martial arts attainments are not deep, his eyesight is not shallow, and he seems to have determined how profound a martial art Taijiquan is.
Lugu saw his intentions, but he didn't break it.
"How many inbound martial artists are there in the Northern Qi Kingdom?" Lu Gu pondered for a moment and asked.
"According to official statistics a few years ago, there are sixty or seventy people on the register, counting those who don't want to be known, probably not more than a hundred!" Fang Yan recalled.
"Less than a hundred, so much?" Lugu was taken aback.
"This is already a lot, the three small countries south of my Northern Qi, Heifeng, Daqiu, and Changde, each country is full of less than ten inbound martial artists, and the three countries together are not as much as half of my Northern Qi!"
"So weak, not to be bullied to death by you!" Lugu muttered casually.
"What the young master said is right, they are all vassals of our Northern Qi, and they have to pay half of the tax revenue of the year as a protection fee every year!" Fang Yan's tone carried a little pride in the strength of Northern Qi.
"It's just the law of the jungle, it's the same between countries, and it's the same between people!" Lu Gu said silently. Once upon a time, my previous life was not an ordinary and weak existence, and for a small bonus, I dared to take the risk of accompanying the company boss to mess around, and as a result, I gave my life.
crossed over, and was played by a female cultivator in a daze.
It's all because I don't have the strength, so I'm being bullied.
In this life, since there are martial arts and immortal cultivation methods, I must not miss it, I want to become stronger, I want to control my own destiny, and I want the whole world to tremble for my strength.
Lugu swore secretly in his heart.
"Brother Fang Yan, you continue to talk to me about martial arts. For example, the Wind Sword Technique you cultivated!" After going through some things, Lu Gu finally came to his senses and had his first goal in life, which was to become strong.
However, at present, the cultivation of immortals is still far away, and if you want to make your condition better, it is better to practice martial arts.
Tai Chi is a faΓ§ade, and in the final analysis, Lu Gu is actually still a rookie.
So, it's not a big deal to ask someone for advice, as long as you don't show your feet!
"My Tempest Sword Technique is just an inferior martial arts ......" Fang Yan said slowly, he had spent more than ten years on this martial art, and he had already become too familiar with it anymore, and Lu Gu listened very carefully to some of the key points in his sword technique.
Tomorrow, I'll give this Tempest Knife a try.
