Country and Beauty

Ran Min looked at the big wooden barrel that was steaming hot, and was completely confused in his heart. Using the faint light in the room, Ran Min was able to make out some clues. This was not an ordinary wooden barrel used for bathing, its bottom seemed to be made of iron, and the part that was buried underground seemed to be a stove for cooking. He stood at the door and did not enter the house. Suddenly, he felt a strong cold Qi from the house. Ran Min looked at the big bearded man who had a harmless smile, and his heart unknowingly shivered. Although Ran Min did not know that this was killing intent, he truly felt danger.

"You're at the door, and yet you're still shrinking? What, are you afraid that I'll eat you?" The big bearded man stared at Ran Min and said coldly.

As he breathed in, Ran Min took a deep breath and walked in calmly.

The bearded man's eyes were about to tear open, but suddenly he moved. A blade suddenly appeared in his hand. The blade was short, only a foot long, only slightly longer than the dagger, it was about the same as Xie Fei's 33rd style bayonet. A cold light rushed towards Ran Min. Ran Min was shocked, and hurriedly retreated. It was just that his speed was too slow in the big bearded man's eyes. Ran Min only felt his vision blur, and before he could do anything else to dodge. At this moment, Big Beard withdrew.

Ran Min suddenly felt a cold chill all over his body. Looking down, all the clothes on his body were gone, the leather armor was unusually hard, although the blade could cut through, it required a lot of strength, at the moment, Ran Min did not feel the pain of the blade on his body at all. If he wanted to cut the leather armor, he only had a bit of strength, and with a good blade, under the right method, many people could do it. However, to use a knife to cut through the leather armor without harming anyone was not something that an ordinary person could do. Furthermore, there were also the clothes that were attached to him. If anything, it would be a bloody scene. When Ran Min saw that Big Beard actually used his blade to cut off all of his clothes in the blink of an eye and didn't even get injured, not only was he not afraid, he started to ponder instead.

Only now did Ran Min realize that the shattered pieces of the armor were all cut in half by the blade. The sewn parts of the armor were not a straight line, but were instead irregular.

Big Beard blinked and said, "How many slashes did I make?"

Ran Min did not see how many slashes the big bearded man had made, but the five irregular lines on the armor were not cut by a single slash, adding the clothes on his body, he would need at least ten slashes. Ran Min thought for a while and said: "Probably more than ten moves!"

Big Beard said in surprise, "I didn't expect a kid like you to have such eyes! However, what you said is not true. I have only unleashed a total of fifteen slashes! "

Ran Min had heard from Xie Fei that there were no shortcuts to learning martial arts, and there were no differences between the high and the low. Only if the user was different, would the power be different. The three most crucial aspects were speed, strength and accuracy. This bearded man's blade was fast enough and accurate enough, so his strength was naturally not small.

Ran Min said in all seriousness: "I want to learn the technique from you!"

Big Beard turned around, revealing an unnoticeable smile on his face. He shook his head and said, "Didn't you acknowledge the Emperor as your teacher already?"

Ran Min said: "The Emperor is busy with work everyday, how can he have the time to teach me how to use martial arts?"

Big Beard said, "You have a natural ability to sense danger. Just now, I was only letting out a little bit of killing intent, even a battle-hardened warrior might not be able to sense it, but you can, and you also have the power to call out ordinary people. If you can use your natural ability to sense danger skillfully, as long as you can use that kind of power well, you will be in an invincible situation."

In other words, it was impossible for a six year old to walk twenty miles on foot, much less run twenty miles in full. However, Ran Min was able to, a person who had never killed before, who had never come into contact with killing intent, could actually feel it immediately. This was already a natural ability.

Ran Min could not help but be taken aback. After a while, he finally replied in a serious tone, "Thank you for your guidance. I understand!"

"Hehe, you still have a long road ahead of you. However, to be able to achieve such an achievement at such a young age, it is sufficient to prove your talent! Let's do as we want. After a few more years, it will take at most ten years. I'm afraid even I am not your opponent now! " The bearded man chuckled.

Ran Min scratched his head and could not help but smile. He said: "If I have the skill, I can ride my horse and gallop across the battlefield, and help my Great Qin split the land."

Big Beard said, "If you want me to call you Kung Fu, it's not impossible. You have to learn how to endure first. This is the first lesson you've learned so far! In the future, we do not need to use the etiquette of master and disciple to treat each other, just remember to call me Zuobao! "

Xie Fei had also tried it before, if he wanted to learn how to beat people, he needed to learn how to take a beating first. Seems like what they said made sense, and Ran Min saw that the barrel was steaming hot, and before he even went in, he felt a wave of heat wave rushing towards him. Ran Min timidly asked: "Can I try the water temperature in this wooden bucket first?"

Zuobao laughed: "Of course!"

Ran Min was also worried that the water would be too hot, but seeing that Zuobao was not concerned about it, he calmed down. Ran Min slowly climbed onto the barrel and jumped into it with a normal sound, "Ah!" A miserable scream came out, and Ran Min was instantly burned unconscious by the hot water in the wooden barrel.

Zuobao smiled: "Brat, I really let you off this time. These precious medicinal ingredients, are all things that I have accumulated my entire life." Inside the wooden barrel was actually a huge vat made from purple sand. Floating in the water were the common ginseng, deer antler, and winter insect and summer herbs, of course, most of them were unknown black objects. The water inside the wooden barrel was pitch-black, like ink.

If Xie Fei was here, he would definitely understand that this was actually a plot that had only just appeared in the Wuxia novels. Borrowing hot water and Chinese medicine to go about this task and increase his power, this was simply the best shortcut to practice martial arts. In fact, although this was easy for the human body, it wasn't as exaggerated as in the Wuxia novels. However, it had the function of relieving fatigue, speeding up the circulation of blood, and increasing the vitality of the various tissues and organs of the human body. If it was really as magical as the Wuxia novels described, then this was simply a machine that could be used to create a wuxia expert. Once the pot was boiled, an expert would appear out of nowhere. If that was the case, would anyone still be able to practice kung fu?

After half an hour of cooking, Ran Min finally woke up in the morning with Zuobao finding him a new set of clothes. After Ran Min put it on, he felt that his limbs and bones were all covered with an indescribable sense of comfort. He stretched, actually moaning.

Ran Min was slightly thin, but this type of slim figure revealed a wild and explosive strength. At the same time, he was also the kind of person who was gentle on the outside but tough on the inside.

Ran Min walked out of the house, and saw that Zuobao was standing in an open area outside the house. Beside the open ground, there was a weapon rack with a large horizontal blade placed on top of it.

Zuobao turned around and said: "Since you have decided to learn from me, although I can disregard the title of horned teacher and disciple, riding is a compulsory course. "Regardless of blade technique, horse technique, or archery, you must have sufficient strength. If you do not have strength, then everything will be in vain!"

Ran Min saw that there was a small metal bow on the weapon rack, and it was only slightly bigger than the Gan crossbow. Ran Min was a little curious, and Zuobao said, "This is a shadow bow that the imperial guards used to equip, and it requires a stone's worth of strength to pull. You are still too young to pull it!"

Ran Min stretched out his hand and gently pulled twice, feeling that the pull was a little heavy. He placed a copper ring on his finger and lightly pulled on it, only to see that the bowstring did not budge at all.

What a strong bow! He sank his Qi into his Dantian and used all the strength in his body to see the shadow spread out.

But it had only opened once, and Ran Min already felt a burst of shortness of breath …

Ran Min was a little disappointed. His father was able to shoot five arrows consecutively with a stone bow when he was ten years old, but he couldn't even open his bow.

Zuobao said: "Heh heh, you barely managed to open your bow once now, which is considered rare among those of the same age. However, after you draw the bow, your hands become unsteady and your arms tremble. Not to mention shooting the enemy, he probably wouldn't even have the strength to draw his bow once! Everything should be done step by step; don't be impatient. At your age, I'm afraid I can't compare with you in terms of strength. "

Ran Min said: "Zuobao, do you think that the heavier the bow, the better the power of the arrow!"

"Strength is no longer a force, but an application! Just like a tiger, its strength was much greater than others. Moreover, it had sharp claws. However, a smart person could easily kill a tiger. When unstoppable, you can use wits! " The Zuobao said: "General Zhangsun Yan used four stone strong arch s (one stone equals four averages, one stone equals thirty kilograms, and the four stone bows requires three hundred and sixty kilograms of pulling force) but I can easily shoot him to death before he even has the chance to draw his bow! The broken blade in my hand is not as long as the spear in the North Palace, and not even a tenth of the blade in General Du's hand. But, if I were to fight against the General of the Northern Palace, I can only use three blades at most, and I can take the life of the General of the North Palace. General Du is slightly better, but he won't be able to endure more than ten rounds. "

Ran Min and Du Ceng were both generals of the Qin Army's army, and Zhangsun Yan was even more so known as the Arrow God of the Qin Army's army. However, in front of the Zuobao, they did not seem to be able to resist at all!

Ran Min said: "What if you fight with my foster father?!"

Zuobao's gaze immediately became profound, and his eyes became a little dim. The Zuobao's real name was Zhu Fu. He was originally a solo thief who lived in the Northwest region of the Wu Xia Empire, but with his skills and bravery, when Xie Fei first came to the Qin Province, he actually came to the Duke of Qin Palace to steal from it. However, what made him disappointed was that in the entire huge palace, there was not a single valuable item that caught his eye. Even the treasury of an average family was richer than the palace. As he was feeling disappointed, he was discovered by the patrolling Luan Guards. Just as he was about to jump over the wall and escape after sustaining over ten injuries, he was struck down by Xie Fei.

Originally, he hated Xie Fei's methods of secretly attacking and injuring others, but after Xie Fei had shown benevolence in the Qin State, it had benefited the people. Destiny had seen countless amounts of corrupt officials in his life, but he had never seen an official like Xie Fei who valued the commoners so highly. When he was being captured, Zhu Ge Laisan was gradually moved by Xie Fei's actions, and he also had thoughts of abandoning the darkness and going into the light. Although his horse and archery skills were at the peak of perfection, he was not someone who could stand on the battlefield. At best, he was only a vanguard. Therefore, even though he joined the army, he didn't achieve anything in the battlefield. Instead, he quietly became a teacher among the imperial guards and imperial guards, just like the leopard Lin Chong, becoming the head of the Imperial Guard.

Although his archery and horse riding skills were both peerless, his true strength was still in his blade techniques. It was quick, accurate, and ruthless. There wasn't a single trick to it, and it was all deadly moves. He was the Blessing that the people of the martial arts world called the Northwest Blade King. It had been seven years since he appeared in the martial arts world, and gradually, he no longer taught the soldiers his own blade techniques.

However, no matter if they were in the imperial guards or the imperial guards, no one dared to underestimate Zhu Ge Fu. Even the grand general Zhangsun Yan had to speak respectfully when he saw him: "Zuobao!"

The Zuobao said: "The Emperor's martial arts and mine are the same path, winning by coincidence, unlike the Northern Palace general and General Du who relied on brute force to win, this kind of opponent is the most terrifying. Your strength is usually much greater than that of an ordinary person, but I do not wish for you to walk the path of Iron Head, like Overlord, Lu Bu, including the current Northern Palace General and General Du. Although Overlord was brave, he could not be like, who could fight seventy to seventy percent of the army. In terms of strength, Zhao Zilong was far inferior to Overlord, but he could fight for even longer periods of time. Your strength is also the same as Zhao Zilong's. Although you are larger than ordinary people, you are definitely not born with God Power. "

Ran Min's comprehension ability was not bad, he said: "Zuobao means that I should be learning the ways of fighting for a long time?"

Zuobao said: "Of course, to be able to battle for a long time, one's will needs to be as hard as iron. To be able to run twenty kilometers at such a young age, for a long time, you can also be like Zhao Zilong, able to take the enemy's head in."

"Arrows are the same, even people who use heavy bows cannot shoot for long periods of time. For killing enemies at a distance of 500 steps is no different from killing them at a distance of 100 steps. If a person can kill a person at a distance of 300 steps, he can open his bow 10 times in a row. If he uses a light bow, he can open it 20 times.
