Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

There is not much to say about Beigui's ability to practice Qi. The main component is the group of guys who came to Chang'an to pick up Princess Qinghe for her wedding. This group of people has strong and weak strength, but there are also top experts. They flee from Kandahar every winter. Visiting the princess in Chang'an is simply a must-have.

Not only Liu Tong knew this, but Liu Bei and Chen Xi also knew it. In fact, even Cao Cao just treated it as if he didn't know, had no way, couldn't persuade him, couldn't persuade him at all, and couldn't persuade him at all.

Therefore, as long as it did not affect the smooth operation of Kandahar, Cao Cao always had a resigned attitude towards these Beigui generals who came to see Liu Tong. After all, after so many years, Cao Cao almost understood what the princess meant to the Kushan Empire.

Especially Liu Tong, a princess with the most noble status in the Han family for four hundred years, what kind of attraction does it have to the grass dog of the Dayue clan? To put it too much, the grass dog of the Dayue clan really wants to see the princess. At any cost.

The backbone of the Da Yuezhi under Lao Cao has been able to continuously give birth to Qi Chenggang in recent years, because if the Qi Chenggang is scheduled during the Chinese New Year, there is a certain probability that they can be scheduled to go to Chang'an.

In addition, if you are very strong, can fight well, and can kill among the top five hundred brothers, the probability will be even greater. Therefore, the Beigui brothers under Lao Cao have been prosperous in recent years. Visualize, without any external support, relying on passion, maintaining a promotion rate of Qi training that is higher than the world average.

If you really want to calculate it in proportion, Bei Gui's Qi-cultivating ratio is actually very outrageous. Anyway, Liu Tong alone has seen more than two thousand different Qi-cultivating gangs. These guys, even if Liu Tong says so I don’t pay attention to it, but I also know that this is almost my core crop.

Therefore, it was said that there was a martial arts performance or something, and Liu Tong would naturally ask a few questions.

Hearing Liu Tong's words, Liu Bei and Chen Xi looked at each other, and then Liu Bei nodded without thinking, "Of course it is possible. The actual number of people who can practice Qi into a Gang is about 30,000, and Beigui's backbone is , is also our important strength.”

In Liu Bei's view, those Da Yuezhi who practiced Qi and became Gang are considered very pure elites. They have been moving forward with a certain belief in the mountains for more than a hundred years. They are both moved and miserable. Now that they have joined the Han Dynasty, although they cannot be given Their wishes all came true, but this little thing of seeing the princess must still be fulfilled when it can be realized.

"Speaking of which, are there actually so many people who have become powerful by practicing Qi?" Cookie frowned and asked with a bit of surprise, "Isn't it said that in the early years, the ratio of practicing Qi to becoming powerful was not one in ten thousand? ? The inner energy is almost one in a million."

"The great contribution here is because of your heaven and earth essence rice. There is basically no threshold for condensing the inner qi to the point of practicing qi into a gang. The threshold for practicing martial arts is to get started and the inner qi is separated from the body. Other The threshold is not too difficult," Chen Xi looked at Cookie and explained.

"Nowadays, it is almost one in three thousand to practice Qi to become a gang. If the inner Qi is separated from the body, it is almost one in hundreds of thousands. The former mainly relies on the essence of heaven and earth, rice and the increasing number of various internal Qi separations. It's not clear about the latter," Chen Xi thought for a while and said.

Although the summary of martial arts by Lu Bu and others is also very important, if you want to say the credit, it has to go to the cookie. The Heaven and Earth Jingqi Rice is of great help in increasing the number of Qi Qi Chenggang. In the early days when the scale was small, it was That's all, until now, this thing is the main driving force behind the success of Qi training.

Even meat that is rich in the essence of heaven and earth cannot compare with this thing in this regard.

This is also the reason why the Han Dynasty quickly caught up with the rate of Kushan in the past without the contemplation of gods and Buddhas, and once again reached the status of having the most Qi and Chenggang among the three major empires in the world.

There is a saying that the rapid recovery of the essence of heaven and earth at that time allowed the visualization of gods and Buddhas to far surpass the efficiency of the Han Dynasty and Rome in the birth of Qi Chenggang, and even once made Kushan's Qi Chenggang one of the three major The most in the empire, but in the face of such cheating things as heaven and earth essence rice, the visualization of gods and Buddhas is really lacking in stamina, at least it really can't keep up.

"Oh oh oh, I remember that I also made things like Chinese cabbage and sophora japonica that are rich in the essence of heaven and earth." Cookie puffed up his chest when he heard this. This kind of great cause of the empire can be achieved by himself. Providing important assistance also means proving value to some extent.

Although Cookie has always thought that he was awesome, he could still produce such amazing results by just making a random gadget. Even with Cookie's character, he had to admire himself.

"Forget about the Chinese cabbage, just keep feeding the cows." Chen Xi waved his hand and said, "We have done a comparison and found that after eating the Chinese cabbage, which is rich in the essence of heaven and earth, it does not have much of a boost to Qi training. , I feel like humans can’t digest this stuff well, so I suggest feeding it to cows.”

"Ah?" Cookie was stunned, and then said seriously, "Zichuan, let me ask a question. Is this a controlled experiment, or is it because you want to eat beef?"

"Bullshit, of course it's a controlled experiment. I want to eat it, but I can't find a suitable cow myself. Who are you looking down on? The more than 20 large pastures in northern Xinjiang will naturally appear after being stocked for a year. A batch of beef cattle rich in the essence of heaven and earth." Seeing Cookie's questioning look, Chen Xi retorted on the spot, "Who am I looking down on? I can do it myself."

However, Chen Xi's words were not empty talk. When the cattle and sheep of the large ranch were raised on the grassland in summer, some of them would naturally possess internal energy. There was no special reason. They just ate something on the grassland and then gained internal energy.

As for the war horses, after sending Bole to the ranch, the horses must have the characteristics of a leader, and Bole's amazing operation. Basically, every year, several war horses with internal energy can be produced and sent back to Chang'an as a result. What is an excellent horse herder, what is a famous horse breeder through the ages, this is it, he can really give you war horses with internal energy in batches.

Although there are only a few horses a year, but the trickle has always been there, this is the ability, so the matter of Lu Hu was just over. As an important strategic resource, the previous point is not a loss, it should be called a necessary investment.

"Yes, you have so many cattle and sheep in the Northern Xinjiang Ranch. Even if you don't have the ones I have, you still have food to eat. I'm just curious about who did this control experiment. It's so generous?" Cookie asked curiously. No one should waste food rich in the essence of heaven and earth.

"I did it." Si Niang raised her hand and said, "I discovered this problem when I was eating cabbage, so I fed the cabbage I sent to the cow, and then the cow quickly gained internal energy."

"Did you only do a control once?" Cookie turned his head and looked at Chen Xi and asked.

"In fact, more than that, I have done it many times. I now suspect that the essence of heaven and earth contained in cabbage is all in the fiber, and we can't absorb it, so let's feed it to the cow. Feeding cows is good. Cows have the essence of heaven and earth, and we just eat cows. Although there will be losses, the losses are not great. After all, cows have internal energy, so we don't need to feed them cabbage. They will grow by eating other things." Chen Xi explained. The first person to do this experiment was Si Niang, and the rest were all controls done by Chen Xi.

"Then I'll do a control when I go back." Cookie trusted Chen Xi's ability, but he doubted Chen Xi's thinking in some aspects. Moreover, he could do this kind of control experiment. He could make a dozen control groups for comparison, and the results would be more convincing.

As for feeding cows with cabbage rich in heaven and earth essence, Cookie's wife had done it before, and Hua Xiong's son had done it when he wanted to eat beef. Even Huatai's cows were raised by Huatai himself.

"That's fine." Chen Xi nodded, and didn't think there was anything wrong with Cookie's idea. After all, he was not a professional. If Cookie wanted to do this kind of professional control, he might even work with the bigwigs in the animal husbandry industry. By then, the results would be more accurate, and he might even publish a technical paper to specifically prove how to feed cows with cabbage rich in heaven and earth essence so that cows can obtain internal energy faster.

"Speaking of which, haven't there been any new crops rich in heaven and earth essence in recent years? This thing is indeed the fastest and most effective way to promote internal energy cultivation. Although it can't see any effect on internal energy leaving the body, long-term use can help people achieve internal energy condensation and promote the characteristics of training into qi. It is still very obvious." Chen Xi turned his head to ask Cookie.

Chen Xi has made great contributions to the progress of the Han Dynasty in recent years, but Cookie has also made a significant contribution to the advancement of the country's overall strength, especially the heaven and earth essence rice, which greatly improved the rate of internal energy condensation of the Han army, but the output is still too small. If there are more, it can be popularized to the entire Han Dynasty, then it is only a matter of time before the Han people have internal energy.

"It's not that there are none, but they can only be planted on a small scale, and the management is very complicated. At present, the more mature products are Chinese cabbage and rice. These two can now gather the essence of heaven and earth to the core, and then the other parts are no longer exposed, effectively reducing the probability of being gnawed by other animals." Cookie said with a bit of fatigue. He is also working hard, but he also has to talk about the output. If there is no output, it's all nonsense.

"It's okay if there is. This kind of thing depends on luck." Chen Xi was helpless about this. Special crops with the essence of heaven and earth without special protection methods are easily gnawed by wild beasts. It is extremely difficult to plant. In the early years, crops with the essence of heaven and earth have not been produced on a large scale because the labor cost is too high. It takes a very amazing amount of manpower just to drive away birds, beasts, fish and insects.

In recent years, rice and Chinese cabbage with the essence of heaven and earth have begun to appear on the market. To put it bluntly, it is because Cookie can be regarded as a product that has improved how to self-enclose the essence of heaven and earth, so that wild animals cannot detect the essence contained in these plants, and can successfully live to maturity.

Although it is inevitable that there will be pests far higher than normal levels, the labor cost has generally decreased by 70 to 80 percent compared to the past. It is a mature product that Chen Xi can accept, which is why the number of people who have practiced Qi and become Gang has exploded in recent years.

"I already have wheat and millet similar to rice, and it is estimated that they can be used for sowing in two or three years." Cookie thought for a while and said.

In recent years, Cookie has mainly been engaged in wheat and millet. There is no way. Rice is not Cookie's staple food. It is also an accidental product for him to make heaven and earth essence rice. Cookie can eat rice occasionally, but he can't stand it every day. However, his wife always makes him eat rice rich in heaven and earth essence after cooking it. Even if he doesn't want to eat it, she will stare at him to finish it.

Earlier, when Huatai was still there, Ji Xue scooped a bowl for Cookie, and then Cookie was doing all kinds of things at home, and Huatai climbed over the wall to eat the meal for Cookie.

As for whether this behavior was a bit shameless, Huatai said that the cookie was his uncle. His uncle didn't want to eat it, so he helped him eat it. This is filial piety!

In short, Huatai's ability to grow into a thick-skinned and thick-bodied person was really dependent on eating these high-energy things, and he also learned farming because when he got older, he felt that Cookie's bowl of rice was really not enough for him, even if Cookie worked hard to make him eat. My wife filled her plate with rice, but it was not enough for a young man like Hua Tai.

After Huatai left, Ji Xue discovered that her husband's appetite had plummeted. He used to eat a large bowl from a sea bowl, but now he could only eat one bowl from a small bowl. Ji Xue was so frightened that she thought her husband was sick, so she dragged Qu Qi went to find Zhang Zhongjing and finally determined that Cookie didn't like rice at all. Most of the pot of rice he steamed every day ended up in Huatai's stomach.

After Huatai finished eating the cookies, he climbed over the wall back to his home and walked through the main entrance. He asked Ji Xue to call her aunt, and then Ji Xue shoveled all the remaining rice in the pot to Huatai.

In other words, in the past, Huatai actually ate the rest of the pot of rice that Ji Xue steamed, except for the small bowl he ate. The cookies were eaten only once every ten days and a half, and the rest was eaten by Huatai. When ordering, it's all rice or big meat buns brought by Huatai.

This can also be understood why Hua Xiong came back and found that his son seemed to have been raised. However, with his strength, he beat Huatai, hugged and threw him, and Huatai could still run around without any trouble. He is typically rough-skinned and thick-bodied. This is terrible. In fact, more than 1,500 kilograms of rice and meat rich in the essence of heaven and earth are piled up every year, as well as various other things grown in cookies.

Martial arts are something that can be learned through practice, and even more so by eating. The amount Huatai eats can fully support Huatai's three fellow practitioners. Even Huatai doesn't have this consciousness. God’s logic will naturally follow this path.

This was when Hua Xiong hit Hua Tai hard, but Hua Tai just screamed and was not beaten on the bed.

But after Ji Xue realized this later, she would stare at the cookie every time she ate, and let the cookie finish before leaving. This made Cookie very painful. Although he was a southerner, he was from the south of Sichuan. Man, what is grown over there these days is millet, and what Cookie eats all the time is millet.

"Oh, that's it. That's good. If there is only rice, there will indeed be some other problems. It's good to have these now." Chen Xi nodded and said, "But there's no need to rush this, as long as it can be solved in the future." , promotion will also take some time, and it will be after the Kuishang is wiped out. "

"It's hard for me to think that I still need to eat rice for several years." Cookie sighed and said, even though it is rich in the essence of heaven and earth, for Cookie, this food is like taking medicine. If it's too much, it just doesn't feel good.

"Some of them are good to eat, not to mention rice that is rich in the essence of heaven and earth." Chen Xi said angrily, "Speaking of which, if I eat this again, I seem to have to advance to practice Qi and become a gang. It's not easy. Ah, it’s been so many years. If I didn’t get sick back then, I should have practiced Qi and become a gangster by the time I was sixteen.”

When Liu Bei heard this, he glanced sideways at Chen Xi. If Liu Bei did not break through the separation of inner energy from the body because Liu Bei had his own considerations and was preparing to suppress his own inner energy and wait for a certain moment to directly break through to the completion of inner energy separation, then Chen Xi The failure to achieve the goal of practicing Qi is entirely due to laziness.

Feeling Liu Bei's gaze, Chen Xi smiled briefly, stopped the discussion, and turned to the content related to the martial arts performance in order to finalize certain details with Liu Tong and others.

"Speaking of which, there is one thing I want to confirm." Liu Tong raised his hand, then looked at Chen Xi and asked, "It's about Masinde and Fulward."

"About the two of them? Tell me." Chen Xi nodded calmly.

"We should be able to capture Fuwode. He has been in the Tibetan area and is also a threat to us. Although you have surrounded Yizhou, Hanzhong, and the Yanbian area of ​​​​Xinzhou, you have also conquered Masinde. "We have suppressed Fulward, but he has been squatting in Zangzhou and has a lot of influence on us." Liu Tong looked at Chen Xi and asked strangely.

"It can be taken, but we haven't found the right time yet." Chen Xi nodded and said, "Although Masinde has turned to us, you also know that he is actually semi-neutral, just because of the Kushan Empire's We cooperate with certain behaviors, and the most obvious point is that his and Rangarajan's talents cannot be used by Kong Ming."

Liu Tong nodded. She had heard this before. This was also the key to Masinde and Rangarajan being considered neutral, not allies.

As for why these two people were counted as defecting to the Han Dynasty in this case, it was because of Liu Tong. Liu Tong’s spiritual talent has always been linked to Langarajan and provided Langarajan with the use of spirit. Supported by talent and relying on Rangarajan's special mental talent, many stuck technologies in the Han Dynasty quickly broke through barriers and entered a stage of rapid development.

This is also the most direct manifestation of the opponent being neutral but close to the Han Dynasty.

As for Masinde, Langarajan had given a guarantee, so Chen Xi did not impose special restrictions on Masinde. In addition, Masinde did help Chen Xi deal with part of the staff shortage, and Chen Xi also Just let it slide in that regard.

But in fact, both of them are neutral in nature and will not take the initiative to take action against Kushan. This was the condition negotiated with the two of them at that time.

In other words, it's okay to give information, but if you ask me to take action personally, that's not okay.

This is also the reason why Fuward can still linger in Zangzhou. Otherwise, if Masinde took action personally, Fuward would have fallen long ago.

"In other words, we can only rely on ourselves?" Liu Tong frowned and said, "If we don't solve the trouble in Zangzhou, the other party will rush down from Yizhou and destroy the viaduct. The subsequent expedition will definitely have problems."

The idea of ​​going through Hanzhong and heading straight to Chang'an is basically impossible to achieve now, because the defense of this road is very good. Since Fuward appeared in Zangzhou, the Han Dynasty has strengthened its defense. After all, if foreign troops broke into the vicinity of Chang'an, to be honest, it would really make them lose face.

Thinking about why the Huns were hated by the Han Dynasty in the past, to put it bluntly, wasn't it because the Huns could break into the vicinity of Chang'an to show off their face? Now if the Kushans break into the vicinity of the Han Dynasty's capital, the Han Dynasty's face will also be slapped a few times, the kind of embarrassment to the grandmother's house.

Therefore, after learning that Fu Ward went to Zangzhou, the Han Dynasty deliberately strengthened the defense from Hanzhong to Chang'an while blocking Zangzhou to prevent Fu Ward from doing such a thing that would go down in history.

"This will be solved later, and Fu Ward may not stay in Zangzhou all the time. The purpose of his implementation of the Zangzhou strategy was to contain the Han Dynasty's military strength. This purpose had bought a lot of time and room for maneuver for Kushan before, but now it is not meaningful anymore. Fu Ward still stayed in Zangzhou because of his soldiers." Chen Xi said expressionlessly.

If Fu Ward wanted to run away, as a strong man with extreme internal energy, he could not stop him. If the other party wanted to return to Kushan from the Himalayas, there was actually no way to stop him. Unless Masinde took action personally, it would only be a matter of time before Fu Ward wanted to return to Kushan.

"Do you mean that Fu Ward might run away?" Liu Tong frowned. This was not good news. If the other party ran away like this, then they would have nothing to gain.

"Masinde probably meant to let Fuward leave and return to Kushan, and then he would take other people to surrender to the Han Dynasty, and the two sides would part ways peacefully." Chen Xi said with a bit of calmness.

For this era, Chen Xi has never been able to figure out some things, such as Masinde's behavioral logic. In Chen Xi's view, it has come to this point, and things should be done to the extreme, but Masinde's current situation is obviously to let Fuward return to Kushan.

Although one more Fuward can't change anything, Chen Xi is somewhat displeased with this behavior, just because of Masinde's value. Even if Chen Xi is not satisfied with this behavior, he will not say anything, but dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction.

"Forget it, let him go, let him fulfill his last obsession." Chen Xi said with a bit of dissatisfaction. After all, people are nostalgic, and it is normal for Masinde to behave like this.

I got up late, and I will write the whole extra chapter at noon in a while.
