I practiced magic in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 35 Come and chop me down if you are a brother

Two days later, Shuijing Villa.

It was the season between spring and summer, and the Jingxin Lake was filled with rippling waves.

On the lakeside, there was an old man in a straw raincoat, holding a bamboo pole and fishing.

Not far behind him, there was a neatly built house with soaring eaves, golden windows and doors, and red beams and painted buildings. With the beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains in front of it, it was truly a perfect place to live in seclusion.

With the arrival of one person, the peaceful atmosphere was instantly broken.

The old man suddenly opened his eyes. On the water, a float made of goose feathers swayed gently, and then a beast jumped out of the lake.

This beast has a tiger head, red hair, sword-like horns, a dragon body and four legs. Its eyes are clear and deep, and lively and full of spirit.

"As soon as Bai Ze appeared, I knew it was you, Feng Xiao."

Seeing that it was impossible to catch any fish, Sima Zheng had no choice but to stand up and pick up the empty fish basket.

Guo Jia smiled, stepped forward, bowed, and performed the disciple's salute to Sima Zheng: "Spring fishing by the lake, the water is in a good mood."

At this moment, the divine beast Bai Ze poked its head over and rubbed its horns gently towards Guo Jia, appearing very intimate.

Seeing this, Sima Zheng laughed out loud and said, "It seems that Bai Ze still likes you very much. But it's no wonder. After all, it is an intelligent beast. It is reasonable for it to like extremely smart people."

Return to the house and sit around the fire.

At this time, Sima Zheng carefully looked at Guo Jia for a few times, and then asked, "Have you just returned from Luoyang?"

"Yes."

Guo Jia responded with a chuckle, but then he suddenly started coughing. He had to pick up the gourd at his waist, pull out the cork and drink it all in one gulp, using the medicinal wine in the gourd to suppress his illness.

Sima Zheng frowned upon seeing this: "You fought with someone again? You must know that Liexin has too much Yang energy. Although it can temporarily suppress the Yin evil energy in your body, drinking too much will not help. Be careful not to shorten your life."

Guo Jia looked calm, took another sip of the medicinal wine in the gourd, and said calmly: "This is the necessary price to complete the "Xuan Yin Sha Qi Chapter."

Sima Zheng sighed: "There are hundreds of mysterious skills and wonderful methods in the world. With your talent and understanding, you can choose other options. Why do you have to force yourself to this point?"

"Master once said that only the Starry Divine Canon can help Jia achieve his ambition. Therefore, Jia must practice the Mysterious Yin Evil Spirit Chapter."

"Alas, you are born weak and sickly, but you always force yourself to practice forbidden techniques. You and your master are really exactly the same."

Guo Jia drank a few more sips of the medicinal wine and smiled without saying anything.

At this moment, the bronze crow on the roof suddenly turned, and then a breeze blew across the lake, penetrated the curtains, and went straight into the house. Right in front of Sima Zheng and Guo Jia, the invisible wind turned from virtual to real and rolled into a human figure.

Although he couldn't see the visitor's face clearly, Guo Jia couldn't mistake the aura on his body, and he quickly stood up and saluted: "Master."

The dragon colt came riding the wind, sat down in front of the two people with indifferent eyes, then looked at Guo Jia and nodded slightly: "Did you meet that person during this trip to Luoyang?"

Guo Jia nodded: "It's fate that we met unexpectedly."

Tian Si asked again: "How do you feel?"

Guo Jia thought for a moment, then replied: "He is talented, but lazy by nature, so he is not up to the task for the time being."

Obviously, the person Guo Jia was talking about was Wang Jing.

In fact, his trip to Luoyang was originally ordered by his master to find Wang Jing and see if he was worthy of his service.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived at Hulao Pass, Guo Jia was at the place where Overlord was keeping his troops, and by chance he got to know Wang Jing, which saved him a lot of effort.

Tian Si was not surprised by Guo Jia's assessment: "He has been granted the destiny of Wei Wu. If nothing unexpected happens, he will become the ruler of Yuzhou in the future. However, the destiny of a fake dragon has a time limit. Once the luck is gone, whether he can keep this foundation depends on his own luck."

"Master, I understand what you mean. Wang Yuanxu is not completely useless. At least, he despises the imperial power and the noble families, so he does not value his family background. This is rare for him, who was born in a noble family."

"Well, although you have accepted me as your master, I will not interfere with who you want to assist in the future."

…………

Luoyang, the official residence of the Yin of Henan.

Wang Jing was practicing martial arts in the backyard. He ate five golden fire dates in a row, chewing and swallowing the pits.

The digestive system strengthened by the Niwa Holy Flame instantly refines the jujube meat containing the two Qi of gold and fire into pure innate Geng gold Qi and innate Ding fire Qi.

Geng is metal and yang, strong and solid.

Ding fire is yin, gentle and long-lasting.

Such yang metal and yin fire are just right to be used as the nourishment for the practice of "Golden Armor Yuan Gong".

The strands of Gengjin Qi were slowly refined by the Yuanqi Dinghuo and continuously integrated into the bones, causing sometimes severe pain and sometimes itching, which was unbearable.

But the more you do this, the more you cannot be distracted. Otherwise, once you stop practicing, all your previous efforts will be wasted and you will have wasted your money in vain.

Wang Jing directly activated the avatar hosting mode, blocked his five senses, ignored the severe pain and itching, and repeatedly refined the 206 bones in his body with the highest efficiency and the most perfect path.

Three hours later, the first level of Golden Armor Yuan Gong, Frosty Edge and Iron Bones, was completed!
As soon as Wu Bone was formed, Wang Jing suddenly felt a strange force running through his body's eight extraordinary meridians. His bones made crackling sounds and began to adjust themselves to the most suitable state for exerting force.

Wang Jing bent down and picked up a pebble from the edge of the pond, placed it in the palm of his left hand, then clenched his right fist, swung it out suddenly, and smashed the pebble into pieces with one punch.

He raised his left hand, and broken stone chips fell from his fingertips like quicksand.

Looking closely, he found that his hands were intact. Instead, there was a faint gray light lingering on them, as thin as frost, but giving people a feeling of hardness and sharpness, as if they were indestructible.

"The energy protects my body, and my body is as strong as iron. The effect is so immediate. The money I spent on the golden thread fire dates was not wasted."

Wang Jing then wanted to further test Fengshuang Tiegu's specific defensive capabilities and defense mechanisms, so he ordered someone to call Wang Ling over.

"Second brother, are you looking for me?"

"Well, come and help my second brother."

"Just give me your orders, brother."

"Okay, come and cut me."

"what?"

Wang Ling stood there in a daze upon hearing the voice, with a forehead full of question marks.

Is second brother sick again?

What kind of weird habit is this?
Wang Ling, feeling nervous, asked hesitantly, "Second brother, are you... sure?"

Wang Jing, who was in high spirits, was getting a little impatient at the moment, so he laughed and scolded unhappily: "Stop talking nonsense, come and chop me if you are a brother!"

"Second brother, you said this yourself, don't blame me if anything goes wrong."

After saying that, Wang Ling drew his sword, and his eyes suddenly became sharp. He moved like a rabbit and stabbed Wang Jing's left shoulder with his sword, looking eager to try.

But he still deliberately held back to avoid any accidents.

However, when Wang Ling stabbed him with the sword, Wang Jing did not move at all, allowing the tip of the sword to pierce his left shoulder.

Hey~
"Ok?"

The tip of the sword seemed to be striking iron. It was clearly piercing flesh and blood, but it made a crisp sound of gold and jade colliding. Wang Ling couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise, revealing an expression of disbelief: "Copper skin and iron bones? It's only been a few days, and you have already mastered the first level of the Golden Armor Yuan Gong?"

The difficulty of practicing "Golden Armor Yuan Gong" is not high, otherwise it would not have become the standard for military generals above the rank of colonel in the Yanhan Dynasty.

Although this technique requires a large amount of krypton gold, that is the third and fourth levels, and the expenses for the first two levels are barely acceptable.

But even so, if you want to practice to the first level, it will take at least "months". Usually it takes about half a year to a year to get a glimpse of the key.

However, Wang Jing once again broke Wang Ling's cognition with his actual actions. It only took him a day and a half to successfully get in quietly.

Wang Jing laughed triumphantly: "Hahahaha, come on, come on, Yanyun, have you not eaten? You don't even have the strength to chop people, how can you follow me to fight on the battlefield in the future?"

"Brother, don't underestimate me! Look at the sword!"

Wang Ling, who had just been holding back for fear of hurting Wang Jing, no longer held back. With a leap, he already mastered the Eight Styles of True Sword.

Wang Ling was seen to be agile, and he could use the eight sword moves of stabbing, chopping, lifting, hanging, clouding, tapping, collapsing and intercepting in various ways and in any combination.

Wang Ling is a man of integrity and sincerity, so his swordsmanship is just like his personality, upright, upright and heroic. His moves are not very varied, but his foundation is very solid. "Haha, great swordsmanship, but it's a pity that it can't hurt me."

Wang Jing was unarmed, and he swung his fists to fight against Wang Ling's sword. Every punch he threw out was powerful and heavy, with a gray light lingering between his fingers. Seemingly as thin as a cicada's wing, it was able to keep the sword forged from fine steel at a distance of one inch, preventing it from advancing an inch.

This is exactly the defensive effect of the Golden Armor Yuan Gong. Once the martial bone is forged, an invisible air shield will be formed on the surface of the body, protecting the whole body without any blind spots.

Dang~
Wang Ling slashed Wang Jing's forehead with his sword, but Wang Jing was fine. Instead, Wang Ling was knocked back several steps. He was extremely surprised: "Second brother, your Iron Head Skill is really powerful!"

"Damn it, you don't hit someone in the face. I think you deserve to be punished again."

"Ah, brother, I was wrong!"

Wang Jing and Wang Ling practiced against each other for half an hour, and gradually figured out the characteristics of the Golden Armor Yuan Gong.

In general, the protective capabilities of the gas mask are very comprehensive, but it is not without shortcomings. After many tests, Wang Jing finally confirmed the defense mechanism of the "Golden Armor".

The first is that the gas mask consumes physical strength and energy, so it is usually closed. When encountering a crisis, it will automatically open with the hair standing up to resist the enemy's attack. Of course, it can also be opened actively if necessary.

The second is that the gas shield cannot resist the erosion of thought energy, nor can it block non-physical attacks such as poison.

But even so, the Golden Armor Yuan Gong is still very practical, and apart from being expensive, it has no other disadvantages.

Furthermore, being expensive is not actually a disadvantage of this technique.

After personally experiencing the power of the Golden Armor Yuan Gong, Wang Ling was naturally very jealous, so he looked at Wang Jing eagerly: "Second brother, how many times have you forged your Frost Blade Iron Bones? The hardness is almost catching up with the finest iron, right?"

"It's already six forgings."

Wang Jing moved his fingers. The incarnation's training efficiency was extremely high. It was stimulating muscle strength, vibrating bone marrow, and activating cells almost every moment.

And every burst of strength is like a blacksmith swinging a hammer, striking the sword blank, and forging the sword bone.

With each additional "forging", the martial bones will become more solid, and as the density increases, the strength will also increase accordingly.

After carefully studying the principle of "Golden Armor Yuan Gong" in tempering bones, Wang Jing tried to use Danyu Holy Flame to "bake" them over a slow fire, and found that the forging effect of Wu Gu seemed to be better. Not only was the efficiency improved, but the defensive effect was also good, and it even gave Wu Gu a slight resistance to thought energy.

Wang Jing was greatly encouraged by this, and immediately began to conduct various experiments on his martial bones, hoping to summarize the rules and further enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of bone strengthening.

Anyway, with the powerful recovery ability brought by Niwa Holy Flame, even if you are injured, you can recover quickly.

At this time, Wang Ling didn't know that Wang Jing had turned into a hardcore cultivator who used his own body for experiments, and was still asking him about some of the difficulties in practicing the "Golden Armor Yuan Gong".

It was obvious that he was very interested in this technique.

Wang Jing did not keep his knowledge to himself and taught Wang Ling all the skills he had summarized. After all, he was hoping that Wang Ling could become his right-hand man in the future.

In this way, Wang Jing stayed at home for seven full days, and only after he had practiced the Frost Edge Iron Bone to the highest level of twenty-five forgings did he finally remember to go out.

It's been almost ten days since I took office as the captain of the Tunqi camp, but I still don't even know which direction the gate of the Tunqi camp faces. This is a bit unreasonable.

Riding on Jueying, Wang Jing called Wang Ling and Xu Lan, and brought more than a dozen personal guards who had taken the Xuanlong Bone Strengthening Pill, and then paraded through the city and arrived at the base of Tunqi Battalion, one of the five battalions of the Northern Army.

As an important military force guarding the royal capital of Luoyang, Wang Jing had high expectations before coming. After all, it was a part of the central army, and the cavalry battalion was a heavy cavalry. Just thinking about it, he felt that it would definitely be a grand event.

As a result, when he arrived at the gate of Tunqiying, Wang Jing's heart sank before anyone even entered.

There were two soldiers on duty standing on both sides of the camp gate.

It is not quite accurate to say "standing". The two soldiers were actually leaning crookedly against the camp gate, covering their eyes with their helmets, dozing off in broad daylight, and one of them was even snoring.

Wang Jing was very skeptical as to how much combat effectiveness these soldiers could maintain since they had neither military bearing nor military posture.

"Yanyun, go up and wake them both up."

"Yes."

Without saying a word, Wang Ling stepped forward and knocked on the two men's helmets, making them clank loudly: "Hey, wake up! Don't sleep anymore!"

After being woken up, the soldier seemed very unhappy. He rubbed his eyes and began to curse: "Where did this unruly person come from? Do you know where this place is? You trespassed into the Fifth Battalion of the Northern Army and you shall be executed according to the law!"

"Open your dog eyes and see clearly, what is this?"

Wang Jing was so angry that his eyebrows almost stood up. He laughed angrily and took out the official seal and tiger talisman: "Where are the cavalry Sima and the cavalry commander? I want to report for duty!"

"Ah, you are the new cavalry captain?"

"Why, doesn't it look like it?"

The soldiers guarding the gate were terrified and immediately knelt down to beg for mercy: "We were blind and did not recognize the great man. Please forgive us, Captain."

Wang Jing was too lazy to talk nonsense with the two soldiers and walked straight into the camp. What he saw could only be described in three words: dirty, messy, and poor.

Even in the corner of the camp, Wang Jing saw that the place was now full of various goods. This scene really made Wang Jing's eyes twitch.

Are you using the military camp as a warehouse?
How dignified!

Just when Wang Jing was about to lose his temper, a bearded man who was eight feet tall and as strong as a bear came towards him in a hurry: "Your humble servant greets the captain."

The man's clothes were disheveled, and he had obviously just climbed out of bed, revealing a large patch of thick chest hair.

And that face looked like a hairy-faced baboon.

After taking a look at the other person's burly figure, Wang Jing asked unhappily, "Are you the Tunqi Sima?"

The other party was embarrassed: "Um...Sir, I am the Cavalry Commander."

"Are you Tunqi Cheng!?"

Wang Jing opened his eyes wide, a little bit unbelievable.

The Tunqi Cheng was a subordinate of the Tunqi Xiaowei, with a salary of 600 dan, assisting the Xiaowei and being in charge of documents.

Just by looking at his duties, you can tell that he is a serious civil servant.

As a result, the man in front of you is eight feet tall, fat and strong, and looks so powerful. You say you are a civil servant?

Later, Wang Jing also learned that this man's name was Yang Ye, and he came from the Hongnong Yang family, but only a side branch.

Although he looks tall and strong, he is actually timid and cowardly.

"Where is the military roster? I want to report in."

Wang Jing did not try to be evasive, but went straight to the point.

As the captain of the cavalry, he must first find out how many available soldiers he has and how many military supplies he has, after all, Dong Zhuo is coming soon.

If you don't seize the time, how can you change your fate?

"This……"

Yang Ye smiled awkwardly at first, but then, realizing that he could no longer fool Wang Jing, he had to tell Wang Jing the truth: "Captain, to be honest, the list is now in the hands of the Cavalry Commander."

"What about the others?"

"This...I really don't know."

After saying that, Yang Ye lowered his head again. It was obvious that he didn't want to offend anyone now. After all, both parties were powerful and he couldn't afford to offend either of them.

"Okay, okay, you're going to do this with me, ok?"

Wang Jing laughed out of anger. He knew that Yang Ye was trying to shirk responsibility. Of course, what he said might be the truth. Unfortunately, Wang Jing didn't have time to argue with a bunch of bugs or play office politics.

He gave an order directly to Yang Ye: "You are the Cavalry Commander, right? Remember what I said! The five battalions of the Northern Army are the troops that protect the capital. The Cavalry Commander did not show up for duty. He should be executed according to the law. Considering that this is his first offense, he is allowed to make meritorious contributions while serving his sentence. If he commits the same offense again, he will be punished for multiple crimes."

It is obvious that Wang Jing intends to put a big hat on the other party first. If the other party is knowledgeable and sensible, then Wang Jing can pretend that nothing happened.

But if the other party is ungrateful, Wang Jing will not be polite and will directly "punish him for multiple crimes" and deal with him with lightning speed.

Yang Ye was sweating profusely after hearing this. He did not dare to write anything. Instead, he persuaded Wang Jing to think twice in a earnest tone: "Captain, you can't do this."

"Why, are you going to disobey orders too?"

"How dare I? But, Captain, you don't know that the Cavalry Commander's surname is Dong Li, from the Dong family of Hejian. He is the nephew of the General of the Cavalry and the grandson of the Empress Dowager. If we are so ruthless, I'm afraid it will be difficult to end it peacefully."
