Yamafu Military Affairs

Chapter 135: Rising Tide
"clang!"

The black dragon pounced fiercely, and the white dragon leaped. The black iron spear and the bright silver spear kept hitting and colliding like two long rainbows, the armor-piercing edges and the frost-white blades bit each other, and sparks flew all over the sky.

Qin Huai was strong and Zhang Teng's spear was heavy, and the two men were evenly matched in the fight.

After a few moves, Zhang Teng suddenly seized the moment when the bright silver spear was swung away by the black iron lance, and Wuzhui suddenly jumped up. The horse lance thrust forward, and the armor-piercing spike pierced Qin Huai's side!
Qin Huai was not in a hurry. He turned his hands over, turned the tube into a clamp, and grasped the gun with his right hand and poked. While the bright silver spear knocked the black iron spear that was stabbing towards him crooked, the frost-white spear blade held in his left hand was pushed forward.

not good!

Zhang Teng didn't expect that Qin Huai had seized the opportunity in the gap between the black horse's hooves and sent the tip of the dragon's gall spear to his chest.

Seeing the frosty blade coming down with a whistling sound, Zhang Teng hurriedly grasped the two ends of the lance, exerted force, and quickly retreated the black horse under his crotch.

clang!
Metal clashed with iron, and Zhang Teng dodged the subsequent stab by leaning sideways.

The black iron spear was raised again, and Wuzhui suddenly increased its speed. In just a moment, the armor-piercing edge arrived in front of Qin Huai like a bolt of lightning!
Rhinoceros!

Qin Huai stood up with his back straightened, his strong waist muscles suddenly contracted inward, and the tip of the Longdan spear spit out its tongue like a snake, biting towards Zhang Teng's left hand holding the spear from a tricky angle.

The armor-piercing edge easily cut through Qin Huai's martial arts uniform on his waist, and the tip of the Longdan spear also brushed across the back of Zhang Teng's hand, leaving a few drops of blood.

The Longdan Spear did not use any force, and the Black Iron Spear did not take the opportunity to hit the abdomen horizontally. The two of them stopped fighting after a while.

"Come again!"

Qin Huai saw that Zhang Teng did have something, his eyes sparkled, and he immediately asked to continue.

Zhang Teng was not satisfied either, so he nodded immediately, controlled his muscles to close the bleeding wound, and then rode the horse away again.

The horses neighed and the warriors fought fiercely.

The black iron lance and the bright silver spear were entangled again. Qin Huai tilted his body, raised his left handle, and swept the spear tip across Zhang Teng's helmet. He clasped his wrist and sank his palm, then pushed his wrist towards his left armpit!
Changshan’s thirty-six shots half-covered the moon!

Seeing the bright silver spear blade that drew an arc in front of his eyes and easily dodged the armor-piercing edge, how could Zhang Teng, who had experienced hundreds of battles, not understand Qin Huai's hidden trick? He had no choice but to give up the killing move that he had been accumulating for a long time, leaned back, and narrowly avoided the dragon gall spear that was originally going to pass through his neck.

"Sigh~"

Wuzhui leaped up, Zhang Teng stood up, and the dragon on his spine stretched out. In just a moment, he swung the round black iron dragon spear with unparalleled force and smashed towards Qin Huai.

Split the golden mountain into pieces!
Qin Huai heard the violent wind, frowned, and held his spear horizontally and thrust it upwards!
The horse lance collided with the spear, and the junction suddenly made a heavy, teeth-grinding metal squeezing sound.

Qin Huai's hands trembled, and he almost couldn't bear it. Then he gritted his teeth, took advantage of the stalemate between the two guns, suddenly let go and grabbed forward!
"dismount!"

Qin Huai shouted loudly, veins on his right arm bulged, and he actually managed to grab the black iron spear, preventing it from moving forward an inch.

Zhang Teng's face tensed up, and he secretly took a deep breath and exerted his strength, intending to pull out the spear and escape from the predicament. However, under Qin Huai's iron clamp, the iron spear still could not move.

Looking at the tip of the gun that was already pointing at his throat, Zhang Teng could only sigh and dismount.

"Master Baihu is a master of arts. Teng is ashamed of himself."

Putting aside other things, just looking at Qin Huai's strength, Zhang Teng knew that he would definitely not win today.

The Longdan Spear disappeared out of thin air, and the Black Iron Spear was thrown back to Zhang Teng by Qin Huai.

Qin Huai dismounted and patted Zhang Teng hard, with admiration in his eyes.

"It was a great fight today! You have a good shot and your horse is not bad either. You are a good man!"

Listening to Qin Huai's praise, Zhang Teng felt a little bitter.

As a member of the Zhang family, he had been practicing martial arts since he was six years old, and had fought in battles at the age of fourteen. He had fought in hundreds of battles in Jingnan and Annan. He believed that although his spear skills were not as good as those of the Ming generals, they were still among the best in Jiaozhi. Now he was forced off his horse by an unknown centurion, which was really hard to accept.

Although he was born with defects and his physical strength could not compare with Qin Huai, losing was losing, and he was not someone who could not afford to lose.

Although he was a little depressed, Zhang Teng still gave Qin Huai enough face.

"Zhang Teng, one of the hundred brave guards, is willing to obey your command and will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

"General Zhang, you are too kind to me. You and I are brothers who work for the Minister and the Duke. Why should we be so polite?"

Qin Huai hurriedly helped Zhang Teng up, spoke soft words to comfort him, and waved his hand to order the onlookers to disperse.

Seeing Qin Huai's behavior, Zhang Teng realized that he was indeed not a young man who was arrogant because of his talent, so he felt relieved and started to inquire about Qin Huai's background.

"Master Baihu is so young, yet he is already proficient in both Taoist arts and martial arts. He is truly a natural talent. I wonder where did Master Baihu learn from?"

"My master is the abbot of Qingwei Temple, Dehong. I'm sure Brother Zhang should have heard of him."

When Zhang Teng heard Dehong's name, he suddenly understood why Qin Huai had such strength.

"It turns out that the Captain is also a disciple of Qingwei. It seems that my spear skills are a disgrace to me in today's competition."

"Brother Zhang, don't underestimate yourself. Your two spear techniques are quite impressive. I would like to exchange some ideas with you, but I wonder if you have any concerns about changing techniques?"

Since ancient times, spears and lances have been inseparable, and the force-generating techniques used by most cavalry generals using horse lances are actually the same as spear techniques. So since Qin Huai saw Zhang Teng for the first time, he had already made up his mind.

Level 5 Fighting Essence, Si Tu, Breaking Gold...

What a treasure!

"They are just some military skills. If you are satisfied with them, I will teach you everything I know. However, spears and lances are different after all. I hope you can use these deadly moves for your own benefit."

Zhang Teng didn't have any particulars. When he was on the battlefield, the most important thing was to do everything he could to survive. Therefore, the soldiers were almost unrestrained in their efforts. After all, every extra move they learned increased their chances of survival.

"It's okay, Brother Zhang, just take care of it."

Qin Huai nodded happily and pulled Zhang Teng aside to ask him about spearmanship.

...

"I see. So, if I want to fully unleash the power of this move, I have to find a BMW that shares the same mind as me?"

"Yes, it is precisely because Wuyun has been with me in battle for several years, and the tacit understanding between us is far beyond the reach of other war horses. That is why I was able to hold out for so long under the command of the Captain with only a spear and a horse."

Qin Huai touched his chin, feeling a little worried.

Since the wonderful chemical reaction between [Mastery of All Martial Arts] and the practice of fighting, Qin Huai's weight and density have been increasing. Not only does he consume a lot of food every day, but it is also difficult to find a healthy horse that suits his taste.

Whether it was the Qingcong horse that he rode when he went to Qinghua or the Baixiaowei warhorse that he rode when he was sparring just now, although they were both good horses that could carry Qin Huai on the road, it was a bit difficult to force them to perform the same neat and swift movements as the Wuzhui just now under Qin Huai's crotch. Forget it, I can't force it for the time being, I'll study the foot combat techniques first.

Qin Huai decided not to think about it for the time being. Seeing that it was getting late, he planned to go home first.

"It's getting late. I have to go back and think about it. Brother Zhang, you've been busy all day too. You should stop training and take a rest as soon as possible."

"Yes, Master Baihu. If you have any questions, you can come to me at any time. Zhang Teng is always waiting for you."

Qin Huai nodded, turned around, left the training ground and walked towards the courtyard.

Zhang Teng in the parade ground also touched his scabby left hand, and led the 48 guards back to the camp with an expressionless face.

After returning home, Qin Huai packed up the chicken, fish and mutton he bought from Lu's shop. Just as he was about to fill his stomach, he heard a knock on the door.

"Who?"

"Brother Guangyao, it's me."

A gentle voice sounded, Qin Huai opened the door and saw that it was Taoist Guangyu.

"Brother, do you have any important business to come here?"

"Hahaha, I was hungry, and I smelled the fragrance from my home, so I came here to ask for a meal."

Qin Huai didn't care about the joke and quickly invited Guangyu into the house and added an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks.

Guangyu was not polite and soon he and Qin Huai cleaned up the table full of dishes.

After eating and drinking, Guangyu wiped his mouth, cleared his throat, and started talking about business.

"Today I saw some auras manifesting in the parade grounds at the Three Divisions. On one side was the bloody evil of the army, and on the other side was the aura of heaven and man. I thought you must have made a breakthrough, so I came to take a look to make sure nothing went wrong."

"I am sorry to trouble you, Senior Brother. I am planning to go to Qingwei again tomorrow to ask for advice from Master."

"It's okay. Just call up the weather and let me see."

Guangyu was very curious when he saw Luwu's phantom in the daytime, but due to the angle, he could only see nine tails. So he was not sure what kind of beast this phantom monster was. If it was a nine-tailed fox, that would be interesting. Guangyu was a little worried, and after thinking about it, he decided to go to Qin Huai's house tonight to find out.

Qin Huai obviously didn't know what Guangyu was thinking, but seeing his senior brother staring at him, he couldn't refuse. So he summoned the phantom of Lu Wu, who had a nine-tailed tiger body and a human face with golden pupils.

Guangyu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the Kunlun Mountain God, whose distinctive features made him look like a living being.

"What a great fortune! Although it is only the embryonic form of a celestial being, it really has unlimited potential. Junior brother, your father's foresight is truly admirable!"

It’s no wonder that Guangyu sighed like this. In his opinion, the path Qin Huai chose was too difficult.

Normally, if one wants to cultivate the heavenly qi, one must first strengthen the muscles and bones and practice martial arts. After reaching any level, if the warrior can communicate with heaven and earth and establish a connection, then he can cultivate qi. If not, he can only specialize in military tactics and follow the qi and blood martial arts.

As the physical strength and mind of the weather warriors continue to improve, their weather will gradually grow. Finally, when the warrior reaches the fourth level of Taoism and the strength of mind is up to standard, the weather will grow to its limit, and then it will break through the heavenly barrier (Buddhism and Taoism have different opinions). If successful, they can return to their original nature, remove the dross from the weather, strengthen the connection between heaven and earth, and cultivate the prototype of heavenly weather.

The light after understanding the heaven and earth and the wisdom after breaking through the mental barriers are at this stage. The mind, heart, soul, heaven and earth sympathy and the nature of the weather are all undergoing earth-shaking qualitative changes. With the initial form of the weather of heaven and man, after continuous practice, one can gradually approach the legendary Taoist real person and Buddhist Vajra realm.

The method Qin Huai used was a method of creating meteorology that few people in this era would choose except for the aristocratic families. During the Song Dynasty, almost all warriors who possessed meteorology had celestial meteorology, because there was only one way to summon meteorology at that time. That was to increase the physical strength to the limit, and then use the extremely powerful blood and qi to pry the power of heaven and earth, and then use the clear mind and soul to establish the sympathy between heaven and earth based on this gap. The meteorology summoned in this way naturally has the ability to control the power of heaven and earth, which is the so-called celestial meteorology.

But this method also has its drawbacks, that is, the strength of the warrior's body cannot have obvious weaknesses. If the body is not well balanced, it will easily lead to failure in establishing the connection between heaven and earth, and this life will have no chance of experiencing the weather.

Guangyu had only heard of warriors like Qin Huai who chose the start-up method and eventually succeeded, but had never seen one.

"Show me your skills, brother."

Guangyu suppressed his excitement and took out a purple scroll. Purple light flashed, and in the blink of an eye, everything in the room was coated with an extremely tough film.

Qin Huai nodded, and Lu Wu also shook his tail, and the air in the room suddenly became thick. After a few breaths, the miniature rain cloud floating on the roof struck down green dragon lightning, hitting the film and causing ripples.

“Use all your strength!”

Guangyu spoke in a deep voice, and under the command of Qinhuai Sword, a dragon thunder half a meter high and about a foot wide appeared out of thin air and struck the wine table.

"That's the maximum power, but I can still chop it dozens more times."

Qin Huai shrugged and dispersed Lu Wu's shadow. In Jia Zi Jiu's words, this is insufficient power, but the energy reserve is still okay.

"Very good. Although the power is not good, it won't be a problem when you master the Dao in the future. It just so happens that this weather is good at using mines, which are mild. You can also try to practice the art of thunder and talismans."

Guangyu nodded, and his expression showed that he was very satisfied with Qin Huai's natural demeanor.

"It's very hot these days, there are a lot of mosquitoes, be careful not to catch any strange diseases."

Perhaps realizing that the purpose of this trip had been achieved, Guangyu reminded Qin Huai and then got up to leave.

"Brother, I will remember your teachings. I wonder if Master will be in Qingwei tomorrow?"

"You can come. Senior uncles Deshan and Dewen are here these days. If Master is not here, you can ask the two elders any questions about medicine or numerology."

"Junior brother understands."

Qin Huai nodded, sent Guangyu out the door, and then turned around to clean up the leftovers.

Looking at the many flying insects lying in the dishes and wine bowls, Qin Huai casually condensed a ball of clear water, rinsed them clean and put them into the cupboard.

Qin Huai took out the "Daoist Canon" and planned to study it again before going to bed to see if he could gain anything else.

"Buzz~"

The bloodthirsty black mosquito unique to Jiaozhi appeared from nowhere, flapping its wings and approaching Qin Huai, wanting to drink his blood.

A tiny flash of lightning flashed by, and the huge black mosquitoes fell down continuously, turning into a pile of insect corpses.

Qin Huai, who immersed his mind in the Taoist Canon, did not find a problem. How could an ordinary mosquito survive intact under the dragon thunder that was several thousand degrees?

But this scene is not unique to Qin Huai's family.

That night, black mosquitoes swept across the entire Longyuan.
