Chapter 208: An Invitation from Xuzhou
Gu Shun and the Tartar prefect looked at Xiaobai's jealous little expression, and they were both amused.
"I didn't expect this tiger to stick to you. In the history of our Xianbei tribe, all the strong have the tradition of falconry and beast control, your godfather and I wanted to raise a beast when I was young, but unfortunately I joined the army early, and this wish has not been realized.
Now that I see this tiger so close to Shun'er, it can be regarded as fulfilling my unfulfilled wish, I hope you can become a strong man in the future. ”
As he spoke, the Tartar prefect patted Gu Shun's shoulder, very pleased.
Gu Shun nodded heavily and said, "Godfather, don't worry, I will definitely raise it well." In addition, the auction house that my godfather gave me, I will also run it well. ”
"You can't delay the practice of martial arts, everything still has to be based on your studies." Tuoba Tartar reminded earnestly.
"Got it."
"By the way, Shun'er, the hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren I gave you earlier, how are you practicing, if there are any places or bottlenecks that you don't understand, you need my godfather to explain it to you.
According to my research over the years, I found that the Xianbei exercises are still very different from the Central Plains exercises.
Its pursuit of strength is much less than that of the Central Plains martial arts, on the contrary, it has extremely high requirements for the strength of flesh and blood.
To learn the Xianbei exercises, you must not be in a hurry, you need to gradually improve your basic strength and practice the basic skills. ”
"Godfather, the exercises you gave me have been completed, and I hope my godfather can guide me." Gu Shun hugged Xiaobai and said,
"What, you said that you have become a child and a thousand grandchildren, and you are so fast." When Tuoba Tatar learned this trick back then, it took two years to enter Xiaocheng.
If you want to use the stagnation of force to condense a complete phantom clone outside the body, you need not only enough strength to support the phantom activity, but also the ability to manipulate it accurately.
This is simply difficult for martial artists, especially beginners. Compared to the other exercises in the Giant Spirit Divine Skill, this technique is considered to be the one that requires the highest degree of force manipulation and control.
Beginners don't have much energy to condense, and they have to release the energy outside the body, which is like you just learning numbers, and you are asked to solve a Gaussian equation.
Moreover, the lower limit of this exercise is high, and the upper limit is also difficult to reach.
The upper limit of a hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren is said to be able to reach thousands of phantoms, but for ordinary martial artists, even at the current level of Tuoba Tartar, it can only maintain more than eighty phantoms.
If Gu Shun could condense into a phantom clone now, he would already be far ahead of him back then.
"Okay, godfather, let's test your martial arts today, you try to condense a shadow clone first."
Gu Shun immediately urged the Hundred Sons and Thousand Grandchildren to practice the Exercises, and walked slowly in the house.
I saw that every time Gu Shun took a step, the body left by the previous step was like a freeze frame, staying in place, forming a phantom, following him step by step.
Because there was a lot of furniture in the house where Gu Shun lived, there were not many places to move, so Gu Shun didn't take a few steps and spared a circle.
At this moment, the phantom clones following him have reached more than twenty.
When the Tartar prefect saw this scene, the whole person was stunned.
Gu Shun not only used hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren very perfectly, but the condensed phantom was exactly the same as a real person, and it was impossible to distinguish it from the outside.
What's more, because Gu Shun was holding Xiaobai when he was using Baizi Qiangrande, each of the more than 20 doppelgangers in the house now was holding a little white tiger in his hands.
Xiaobai was also frightened by the scene in front of him, and his mind was looking left and right in a daze, not knowing why there were so many of himself.
Out of the instinct of the protector, Xiao Bai immediately raised his cold hair and threatened the other white tigers.
Almost at the same time, Xiaobai in the hands of the other clones also grinned and threatened, but fortunately, the other clones could only make movements and couldn't make a sound, otherwise the whole room would really be messed up.
"Okay, okay, Shun'er's hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren are no longer under me." The Tartar prefect patted the back of the nearest phantom with an excited expression and praised.
"Thank you godfather for the compliment." Gu Shun's voice was mixed in these clones, if it weren't for the voice, the Tartar prefect really couldn't recognize who was the main body.
The Tartar prefect could feel that every phantom in it was extremely condensed, and a palm smashed on it was the same as the real feel.
Hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren is a method of luring the enemy's eyes, and he can do it to such an extent, even he will have to fight for a while before he can get out.
Moreover, the Tartar prefect had a hunch that these more than twenty phantoms were not Gu Shun's limit. If it weren't for the fact that the room was too small, Gu Shun might have been able to condense a few more phantom clones to come out.
"Shun'er, when did you practice this exercise, you have to practice with the master during the day, and you have to practice hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren at night, it must be very hard."
Tuoba Tartar immediately made up a picture of Gu Shun cultivating every night until dawn, and he was moved.
"I also cultivated recently, and I would like to thank my godfather for the marks he wrote on the exercises, without that, I would not have been able to succeed in cultivating so quickly."
"The future is terrifying, it is impossible to achieve such results without diligent cultivation, godfather is proud of you. In order to reward my Shun'er for practicing so hard, I will simply reward you with all the confiscated Zhang family properties, and everyone will match you well, you just need to be a hands-off shopkeeper. ”
"No need godfather, I just need an auction house, and the rest of the industries should be kept for Jiangnan City to pay taxes."
"Okay, my godfather will keep these properties for you, and on your wedding day, I will give you a bride price."
Tuoba Tartar has always been obsessed with Gu Shun's marriage, and he must not be able to wait to hold his grandson, but he is only six years old now, is it too early.
Gu Shun hurriedly diverted the topic and said, "Godfather, since I have learned a hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren, when will I be given the next move, I will learn it first." ”
"Godfather didn't expect you to learn so quickly, wait for Godfather to give you the exercises next time he comes, and you have a good rest these two nights. You are still young, and you will have time to practice in the future, so you don't have to rush it.
Although you don't want these properties, godfather will give you another gift. ”
After speaking, Tuoba Tatar took out an invitation from his arms and handed it to Gu Shundao:
"Recently, a peasant rebellion broke out in the southern Xinjiang of the Great Qi Dynasty, and the most promising candidate in the imperial court to be elected as the crown prince, Xuzhou Wang Tuoba Jin, is preparing to hold a charity auction of military expenses in Xuzhou, and use the proceeds of the auction to support the army in the southern Xinjiang of the imperial court and suppress the rebellion.
This auction invited the prefects of various states and the Xianbei family to participate, of course, the auction to raise military expenses is just a pretext, his real idea is to take this opportunity to win over these families and local officials, cultivate power, and support him to become the crown prince of Daqi.
This invitation was specially sent by Tuoba Jin to the government office, hoping to let me participate. Originally, I wanted to decline politely, but since Shun'er wants to open an auction house, you always have to see the auction scene.
In order to create momentum for himself, the prince of Tuoba Jin has scavenged a lot of treasures from the capital and the people, and this auction is huge, just when the godfather takes you to a long time, what do you like, but the godfather buys it for you. ”
The invitation, made of vermilion cardboard, was written in thin gold script with the words "Invitation to Tuoba Tartar, the prefect of Jiangnan City, to participate in the Xuzhou auction, etc., and the auction was scheduled for eight days later.
Coincidentally, the time of the Ancient God Cult's operation in Jingzhou was also eight days later.
'The auction was really interesting. Gu Shun thought in his heart.
"Thank you, godfather, I want to go and see it."
"Okay, if you take a carriage from Jiangnan City to Xuzhou, it will take two days at the earliest, let's leave three days in advance, and my godfather will accompany you to participate in this charity auction."
Not long after putting down the invitation, it was raining heavily outside, and the affairs of the Tartar prefect were explained, and he didn't stay long, and after telling Gu Shun to rest early, he left.
More than half an hour later, the carriage stopped in front of the Tatar prefect's mansion, and the little official hurriedly stepped forward with an umbrella and welcomed the Tatar prefect from the carriage.
