For three days, Ye Jingqiu didn't find the wolves that escaped, and he returned to check the red fruits on the edge of the snake cave, but they were all not ripe.

Of course, Ye Jingqiu didn't know that there was a cycle for the ripening of this red fruit, and there were seven fruits in one season, and only one snake fruit ripened in sequence every twenty-one days.

One season of this tree is three years, that is, it takes twelve years to produce seven fruits. It will take more than 100 days for these seven fruits to ripen one by one.

Ye Jing Qiuwu's internal martial arts, especially this light skill, are also made because of this snake fruit. Ye Jingqiu didn't understand, only when this red fruit still had a long time to ripen, and he had already got one, he should be self-sufficient;

Ye Jingqiu thinks this way because since he heard the Miao Di talk about the method of opening the fate, his comprehension of chance is: following fate is the true meaning of chance.

At this time, he was very satisfied with what he had obtained from this trip, and his heart was full of intentions, seeing that the time was almost up, and there was nothing to dry food and water, so Ye Jingqiu decided to return.

In just one day, Ye Jingqiu arrived at the foot of the mountain, asked for the path, and in front of him was Jinghui City of the Northern Gugeling Empire; Ye Jingqiu rushed to Jinghui City on foot and bought a horse, and as soon as he rode south, he returned to his own general's mansion in Zhendong City in ten days. When I calculated the distance, it was only a little more than a month.

When Ye Jingqiu came back, he first gave the little wolf cub to Xiao Mao'er, and Xiao Mao'er liked it very much, so he took the little wolf cub to find his grandfather Li.

Of course, his grandfather Li Xiaowei is Li Xiaowei, and now he has naturally become the housekeeper of General Ye Jingqiu's mansion. Ye Er's sister-in-law herself is a crop woman, and she is also good at housework, although Ye Jingqiu's general's mansion has no subordinates now, but it is also very clean.

Ye Jingqiu's general's mansion, but there are also guards, a ten-person team, led by a chief. These guards usually have free time, so they naturally take the little ones to play. Xiao Mao'er hugged the wolf cub and looked for his grandfather Li, so he came to find these guards to show off, children are like this, Ye Jingqiu smiled when he saw his nephew's appearance.

When Xiao Mao'er ran away with the little wolf cub in his arms, he said to one of the guards: "Your name is Li Wentong, right? You go to the special guard camp, find Ji Fang, the commander of the third standard and the first commander, and tell him to ask him to approve the head of the sixth army, Ye Wuchang, for three days off." You stopped by and picked up Ye Wuchang back. ”

"Yes! ”

This Ye Wu Chang is naturally Ye Jingqiu's second brother Ye Jingxia. Ye Jingqiu wants to perform the Daigo empowerment teaching method to develop the potential of his second brother and improve his skills.

Ye Jingxia learned that Ye Jingqiu was back, and after receiving the notice, he rushed home.

Ye Jingqiu saw that the second brother was back, so he told the second brother what he thought. Ye Jingxia said: "Third brother, I am in my early thirties now, but I have to let you worry about the third brother!"

When Ye Jingxia said this, he went back to the house and took out a red cloth package, and said to Ye Jingqiu: "Third brother, this is our Ye family's ancestral marksmanship. When it was passed on to his father, his father did not practice. My eldest brother and I didn't make it either. The eldest brother said that I have a little mao'er, which is the root of our old Ye family, so he left this gun spectrum to me.

A few months ago, I didn't have time to tell you that you went far away. You haven't been at home since you were a child, and you haven't practiced our Ye family gun, so you can try it and see if you can succeed when you look back. ”

Ye Jingqiu took the gun score and looked at it, and there were a few quaint words on the cover: Ye's gun style 36.

Ye Jingqiu said in his heart, I haven't learned any subtle moves myself, and with this 36-style marksmanship, I will be able to go to the next level. Ye Jingqiu thought for a while and said, "Second brother, haven't you practiced the thirty-six styles of our Ye family gun?"

"Third brother, I've practiced since I was a child. It's just that it can't be transparent, so it can't be improved, and it's still at the second-order level. ”

Ye Jingqiu said: "Second brother, you make a gun all the way to me to take a look." ”

Ye Jingxia then used a big gun, and the moves were all decent Ye family gun moves, and he finished thirty-six moves in one go. I was afraid that Ye Jingqiu wouldn't look carefully, so I started all over again.

It's just that Ye Jingqiu's vision is already at the level of a great master at this time, and he naturally sees the problem: the second brother's moves, it can be seen that the basic skills are solid, and they have worked hard, but the moves are not connected with each other, and they always give people a feeling of intermittentness. There is only one reason here, that is, the Ye family gun lacks the supporting internal strength!

There is a reason why this Ye family gun lacks the supporting internal strength: the ancestor of the Ye family is also the head of a country, after the country is broken, in order to keep his own marksmanship from being snatched by outsiders, he will keep the gun and the gun trick separately and keep it in the future;

After Ye Jingqiu understood the truth, he gave the gun spectrum to the second brother: "Second brother, I see that you have practiced this once, so you don't need this gun spectrum." ”

"Third brother, did you remember it after reading it twice?"

"Yes, second brother, our Ye family gun only has moves and no internal skills, no wonder you and the eldest brother have not practiced. Let me think about it for a few days and transform it. ”

That night, Ye Jingqiu used the Daigo empowerment method to develop Ye Jingxia's potential and improve his skills. After three days in a row, it finally paid off, and although Ye Jingqiu felt tired, he was also happy, and he found that after performing the Daigo empowerment, he did not enter a period of weakness as the exercise book said, he was just very tired and felt heavy, but he quickly rested.

Three days later. Ye Jingqiu and his second brother got on the horse together, went out of the house and went straight to the barracks. Ye Jingxia went to the third standard and the first commander of the special guard battalion, and Ye Jingqiu went to the Chinese army's big tent to report for leave.

As soon as Ye Jingqiu arrived, Hua Qingping asked happily: "General Ye, Ben Shuai has been waiting for you for several days! I wonder how I got out of this trip?"

"Report to the marshal, this trip has been very profitable, the cultivation of the internal strength and mind method has reached the ninth order, and the Daigo empowerment teaching method has been used to develop the potential and improve the skill of my second brother. My second brother and I can make an inch, and we are both marshals. ”

Hua Qingping was extremely surprised: "Ben Shuai regards you as my successor, and you and I don't have to be polite." Jingqiu, have you really reached the ninth order in your inner strength and mind cultivation?"

Ye Jingqiu was also surprised: Marshal Hua Qingping cultivated him, which many people could see. But Hua Qingping has never confessed directly like today, let alone had such an affectionate title called "Jingqiu".

"Yes, Marshal!"

"Very good, very good! You have been so successful in such a short period of time, and it is very good for me. Hua Qingping said:

"In the autumn, the empire has changed, and the emperor suddenly has no intention of taking the throne and wants to give way to the world. The eldest prince should succeed to the throne, so he was naturally not happy with the emperor giving up the throne to others, and the second and third princes had ambitions. The second prince and the third prince also have support behind them.

At present, the chaos in the ancient Confucian region has been completed, and in the northwest area, outside of my Xiding, Nageling, Northern Qi, Western Qi (i.e., Great Qi), and Dade are relatively calm. Later Zheng and the Yiyu Empire in the Middle Ages had already been involved in the three-kingdom melee with the Great Confucian Empire, and the Tang Empire in the Eastern Empire was about to be involved.

At this time, if the emperor of our Xiding Empire wants to abdicate, it will inevitably cause civil strife in our empire, and then become the leader of the war in the northwest countries. ”

"The marshal knows the general situation of the world well, I don't know what to do?"

"In the autumn, the eastern army of our town supports the eldest prince. This is a balanced policy, do you understand? And now is not the time to give in, I want to risk my life to admonish, but the power of the Zhendong army must not fall into the hands of others; do you now understand what I mean by cultivating you?"

"The last general is under the care of the marshal, and he will do his best to serve!"

"Jingqiu, I will train you to be my successor, this is actually the tradition of the Zhendong Army. The Zhendong Army has not been devastated by war for more than 100 years, just for our Zhendong Army to protect both the country and the people.

The empire also thought about seizing my power from the Zhendong Army, but our Zhendong Army can be said to be obedient to the announcement, and its status is so special, so the successor of our Zhendong Army must be a civil and military all-rounder, wise and brave. ”

Hua Qingping said again: "I am about to enter the imperial capital to meet the emperor, and before leaving, I ask you to take over my responsibility." The name of the emperor of my Xiding Empire is Zeng Tiangu, and he is the one who is called the first emperor of the Middle Ages in the martial arts. ”

"What?" Ye Jingqiu now knows something about the martial arts master, and knows the nicknames of the five masters. However, Ye Jingqiu was even more surprised that such a human emperor, a master of martial arts, why did he throw away his glory and wealth?

"Jingqiu," Hua Qingping smiled bitterly: "According to the practice of the empire, if the older generation of emperors abdicates, the four major towns and armies of the empire will all change their commanders. In order to prevent the tail from falling out, this is also a rule that the empire has set since its founding. ”

Ye Jingqiu wondered in his heart, what kind of rule is this?

"Have you heard of the founding of the country by the five marshals?"

Ye Jingqiu suddenly realized, it turned out that it was the founding of the country that the five marshals set such rules. Ye Jingqiu was in the Xiding Army, and he still knew about the establishment of the country by the five marshals, but this was the first time he had heard of this rule.

"That being the case, the marshal should also be the commander of the Lihua family as the commander of the eastern army of our town, and the last general, Ye Jingqiu, will fully support the new commander. ”

"Alas, the old man has a son and a daughter, and my son Hua Guoming has been helped by Li'e twice with the method of Daigo empowerment, and he is still of medium seniority. In the peaceful years, it was okay to let him be the marshal of the eastern army of this town, and seeing that the chaos of the countries was about to start, let him command nearly 200,000 horses of the eastern army of our town, which not only harmed him, but also mistook the eastern army of our town.

Tiger poison does not eat children, how can I harm my own son? His ability, that is, to be a hereditary prince of Pingdong, enjoy wealth and wealth. ”

"After I leave, you will be appointed as the acting marshal of the Zhendong Army. This Zhendong Army, unless someone from my Hua family, even if the person with his surname is a marshal, he is only called an acting marshal. If my grandson Sicong has a future interest, you will return the power of the Zhendong Army to him, and if it is not, you will choose another acting marshal - the same is true in the other four town armies. ”

Hua Qingping's explanation has the meaning of supporting the orphan.

"Why did the marshal say that? Could it be that there is no danger in going to the imperial capital?"

"Dangerous? It is said that there is no danger, this time, it is just that since then the old death of the imperial capital, and it will not come back. It's just that the emperor of this dynasty is one of the five masters in the world, maybe I and the three princes should be careful. ”

Ye Jingqiu understands that this is tantamount to house arrest in disguise.

On May 1, the 28th year of the Xiding Empire, 24 salutes were fired in the Zhendong Army. Ye Jingqiu, as the acting marshal of the Zhendong Army, led the generals and colonels to send Pingdong Wang Huaqingping into the capital.

When Hua Qingping and his party went far away and couldn't see it, Ye Jingqiu said to the man next to him: "Ming Shuai, the prince has gone far, I'll wait to return to the camp." ”

This man called "Ming Shuai" by Ye Jingqiu is Hua Guoming, the son of Hua Qingping.

According to the usual practice, since Ye Jingqiu served as the acting marshal, Hua Guoming, the heir to the marshal, should be called "Marshal Cheng"; "Cheng Zhi" means to inherit his father's business and lead the Zhendong Army, indicating the relationship between the Zhendong Army and his Hua family, but in fact, he does not care about half of the military affairs.

Because of the above, people naturally call Hua Guoming a handsome. This is also common in the Zhenxi Army, the Zhennan Army and the Zhenbei Army.

Although Hua Guoming's qualifications are average, he also knows his father's arrangement, and he has the intention of entrusting the orphan, and immediately said to Ye Jingqiu:

"Ye Shuai, in the future, the rise and fall of my Hua family's glory and disgrace will drag you down. You are busy with military affairs, so I won't disturb the camp, junior brother. ”

"That being the case, please go slowly!" Ye Jingqiu saluted, and when Hua Guoming's family returned, the generals and colonels hugged Ye Jingqiu back to the camp together.

In terms of personnel arrangements for the Zhendong Army, Hua Qingping did a good job.

In military affairs, there are Sima who join the army, and Ye Jingqiu's main job is to read military newspapers, intelligence, and the clapper for handling major events. So Ye Jingqiu can still find time.

Every time Ye Jingqiu took the time, he pondered about the Ye family's gun. The thirty-six moves of the Ye family gun did not have its internal strength, Ye Jingqiu thought, can you combine the gun move with the Taihe Jue?

When Ye Jingqiu was still a small Wu Chang, he was able to integrate the combination of knife moves, sword moves and gun moves, at this time, his vision was a hundred times better than at the beginning, after pondering every day for a while, he really found the trick, this is not only the luck of the Ye family's gun, but also the luck of Ye Jingqiu:

Since then, the new Ye family gun has been born, and Ye Jingqiu is no longer the freak who was so high in skill that he scared people to death, but his moves were shallow and laughing at the dead.

If you talk about the personal combat power at this time, Ye Jingqiu's comprehensive combat power is high, and only the five masters in the world can compare with it.

Although Ye Jingqiu didn't know this, he knew that from now on, his second brother would definitely be able to make leaps and bounds in cultivating the Ye family's spear.

Immediately, Ye Jingqiu did not slack off and taught this new set of Ye family guns to his second brother.
