Kan Ling heard what Kou Zhong meant and said: "According to convention, these Sui troops will be incorporated into the 'death camp' and used as consumables in the next war! Kou Zhong, do you want to get rid of these Sui troops prisoners?" It’s not impossible to recruit people, but you have to be careful that these Sui troops will rebel and even escape from battle!”
Kou Zhong certainly understood the meaning of Kan Ling. These Sui troops had no sense of belonging to the Jianghuai Army. Moreover, most of them came from Luoyang and Guanzhong areas and worked for Yang Guang in the war. Now they have become prisoners. As long as they get the opportunity, they will naturally think first. How to escape back.
However, since Kou Zhong raised it, he certainly had a solution, and this solution lies with Qin Shubao.
"I?"
Qin Shubao stared at Kou Zhong in surprise, but thinking that some of his old troops among these prisoners could save them from death, it was considered worthy of them, so Qin Shubao agreed wholeheartedly.
"Brother Qin, does Brother Lin have any other messages for you to convey?" Xu Ziling asked.
Qin Shubao thought for a while and said: "It's true. Master Lin asked you two to go to Yangzhou as soon as possible and send that account book to Yang Guang. In addition, the 'Haisha Gang' and 'Jukun Gang' in the southeast region can If you can’t be subdued, it depends on the abilities of you two!”
The account book records the arms transactions between the Li Clan, the Yuwen Clan and the Dongming Clan. It was given to Yang Guang in order to use it to attack the Li Clan and the Yuwen Clan. However, how to meet Hunjun in person made Kou Zhong puzzled. .
Qin Shubao said: "Master Lin said that you should go to Yangzhou on your own. When you get there, someone will arrange for you to meet Yang Guang!"
"good!"
Kou Zhong was overjoyed and said.
Early on the next morning, Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling handed over all preparations for the establishment of the 'Shuanglong Camp' to Qin Shubao. After leaving Tongcheng, they did not go directly to Yangzhou. Instead, they went to Liyang City to pick up Fang Susu. Then go to Yangzhou.
Since then, the two dragons entered the sea and stirred up the situation in the whole world.
At this point, Lin Sumo's layout for the Jianghuai and Southeast regions has basically taken shape. Once Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling conquer the Haisha Gang and the Jukun Gang, the Jianghuai and Southeast regions will be connected.
Although the rebels of Li Zitong and Shen Faxing are still active in the southeastern region, as long as the Jianghuai Army frees up its hands on the western front, Li Zitong and Shen Faxing will not be able to stand still for a few days.
For a while, Lin Sumo was free, so he returned to 'Panlong Castle'. The mission time limit given by the 'Conquest System' was five years, and now one year and three months have passed.
Although Lin Sumo used the "Secret of Immortality" to repair the damage caused by the previous mission, the goal of this mission is to 'comprehend the realm of enlightenment', which corresponds to the realm above the 'Shattered Void'. However, to this day, Lin Sumo still couldn't find any clue.
Therefore, Lin Sumo decided to take advantage of this free time to study the "Secret of Immortality". This "Secret of Immortality" is a technique created by Guangchengzi after he attained enlightenment. After practicing it to the extreme, it points directly to the realm of 'shattered void'.
The original historical trajectory did not explain how to practice the complete "Secret of Immortality", but according to Lin Sumo's own speculation, the seven patterns of the "Secret of Immortality" should correspond to the 'Five Elements' and 'Yin and Yang'.
The 'Five Elements' correspond to the five internal organs, and the 'heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys' of a person correspond in turn to the 'Fire, Wood, Earth, Metal, and Water' of the Five Elements. The process of cultivating the first five diagrams is the process of strengthening the five qi in the chest. , As for whether cultivating to the extreme will lead to the state of "Five Qi Chaoyuan", Lin Sumo himself doesn't know.
In the blink of an eye, three months later, Lin Sumo used the innate yin and yang true qi as the foundation to sort out the meridians throughout the body, and finally produced the qi of the five elements among the internal organs, and based on the principle of the generation and restraint of the five elements, a cycle was formed, so that the five qi were The meridians between the five internal organs circulate in an endless cycle!
However, even after the five qi were refined, Lin Sumo still didn't feel anything special, and his cultivation had not improved much.
Lin Sumo deduced it many times, but in the end it could only be attributed to the fact that the quality of the 'Five Qi' he practiced was too low, and it was far from meeting the requirements of 'Five Qi Chaoyuan'. We have no choice but to continue cultivating the Qi of the Five Elements and strengthen the origin of the Five Qi, in order to move from quantitative change to qualitative change.
On the other hand, it is solved from the source of "The Secret of Immortality". "The Secret of Immortality" comes from "The Illustrated Book of the God of War" and was created by Guangchengzi after he understood the "Illustrated Book of the God of War". Strictly speaking, "The Secret of Immortality" The exercises are only suitable for Guangchengzi's way. Later generations of practitioners, including Lin Sumo, all followed Guangchengzi's way, not their own way.
Therefore, if Lin Sumo wants to take a further step in his martial arts cultivation, understand his own martial arts, and reach the 'realm of enlightenment', he ultimately needs to understand the "Illustrated Book of the God of War".
At present, the information coming from Xiangyu Mountain is that only the world of "Clouds and Rain" is integrated with the world of the Tang Dynasty. The world of "Shattered Void" has not yet emerged. If you want to find Jingyan Palace, go down to the underground palace to understand "God of War" Catalog", we still have to wait until the battle in Jingyan Palace begins.
However, Lin Sumo knew that there was another place to gain insights into the "Illustration of the God of War", and that was Chuan Ying's thick-backed sword. Before Chuan Ying could break through the realm of heaven and man and enter the 'Shattered Void', he put himself in the God of War. The martial arts acquired in the temple were injected into this thick-backed sword in the form of spiritual imprint.
Lin Sumo only needs to get the thick-backed sword to get a glimpse of the martial arts essence of the "Illustration of the God of War" through the spiritual imprint of Chuanying on it. Although it is not as direct as seeing the forty-nine reliefs in the "Illustration of the God of War" with one's own eyes, it can still draw parallels.
Thinking of this, Lin Sumo knew that the trip to Nanming was inevitable. News came from the Baling Gang that in three days, Shangguan Ying, the leader of the 'Wujiao Gang', would appear at Baotianlan in Yuezhou Prefecture. Moon Tower'.
Lin Sumeruo remembered well, this should be the beginning of the second stage of the "Rain and Cloud" plane world. At this time, the thick-backed sword should still be in Han Tiande's mansion in Wuchang Prefecture.
"Master Lin! An urgent message has arrived from Xiangyu Mountain!"
As soon as Lin Sumo came out of seclusion, Hou Luan walked over quickly and handed a volume of letter paper to Lin Sumo.
Lin Sumo opened it and took a look, but didn't feel too upset. He had previously ordered Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling to give the Dongming Sect's account book to Yang Guang. The purpose was to intensify the conflict between Yang Guang and Yu Wenhua and force Yu Wenhua to Regicide.
Sure enough, the inertia of history still pushed the trajectory in this direction. After Yu Wenhuaji killed Yang Guang, he proclaimed Qin Wang Hao as emperor and claimed to be the prime minister with overall military and political power.
At this moment, Li Zitong had already prepared his troops in Jiangbei and was preparing to attack Jiangdu. Upon seeing this, Yu Wenhuaji appointed Chen Leng, the left-guard general, as the governor of Jiangdu. He coerced Yang Hao and led one hundred thousand Sui troops to flee towards Guanzhong.
With the death of Yang Guang, there will be a period of chaos in Guanzhong and the Central Plains area. Heroes from all over the country will join forces. In addition, the generals of the Sui army who originally belonged to the Sui Dynasty will also segregate themselves and occupy the land as kings. The war will intensify.
But this is the best opportunity for Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. The more chaotic the world is, the longer time will be bought for them.
Lin Sumo waved his right hand gently, and the letter in his hand immediately turned into ashes. Then Lin Sumo turned to Hou Luan and asked, "Is there any news about Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling?"
Hou Luan said: "There was great chaos in Yangzhou. Young Master Zhong and Young Master Ling disappeared after escaping from Yangzhou!"
Lin Sumo nodded and said: "Continue to pay attention to the news of the two of them. I will go to Nanming later. If there is anything urgent, you can come to Wuchang Mansion to find me!"
Hou Luan quickly agreed, and then went to arrange carriages and horses for Lin Sumo.
Qin Ke is still driving. After this year, Qin Ke has passed the age of sixteen, has grown up, is tall and burly, and already looks like an adult.
Based on Qin Ke's physique, Lin Sumo taught him a page in the "Secret of Immortality" about cultivating the 'Earth Element' Qi. Qin Ke's body shape was also affected by this 'Earth Element' Qi. Getting stronger and taller.
At nightfall on the third day, the carriage slowly drove into the boundary of Wuchang Prefecture and walked along the river bank. In the distance, only a few fishing fires were seen on the river.
"Master Lin, we may be lost!"
Qin Ke saw the darkness ahead and couldn't tell the direction, so he couldn't help but said with a wry smile. And in this remote place with no shops, even if you want to ask for directions, you can't find anyone.
Hearing this, Lin Sumo put down the scroll in his hand and said with a smile: "It seems I have to change my charioteer. You have gone in the wrong direction three times along the way!"
Qin Ke said with a smile: "Master Lin, let's solve the problem at hand first. If you want to change, you can get the Wuchang Mansion first. Now this person is blind and can't find his direction. It's hard for him to rush into the Yangtze River!"
"Don't worry, here comes the guy who doesn't ask for directions!" Lin Sumo said with a smile.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Sumo finished speaking, Qin Ke heard the sound of horse hoofbeats. Then in the thick black mist, a young man was seen riding a gray horse slowly forward, holding a lantern in his hand. There was also an injured and unconscious young man on the horse's back.
Such a coincidence?
When Lin Sumo saw these two people riding, he immediately guessed their identities.
Qin Ke was overjoyed and quickly got out of the car and stopped in front of the two people.
The young man was concentrating on his way, but unexpectedly, a black shadow suddenly fell in front of the horse, startling him and almost falling off the horse.
The young man quickly reined in the horse, and then a voice sounded, saying: "Don't be afraid, little brother, I just want to ask for directions!"
Hearing this, the young man looked carefully and realized that the black figure in front of him was also a young man of similar age to himself, but his figure was much taller and burlier than himself.
The young man breathed a sigh of relief, got off his horse, and asked, "I wonder what the elder brother wants to ask?"
Qin Ke smiled and said: "Little brother, I don't know how to get to Wuchang Mansion?"
The young man looked at the direction of the carriage behind Qin Ke and said with a smile: "Brother is going in the wrong direction. If we go further, we will reach the boundary of Ezhou!"
Qin Ke scratched his head when he heard this and said with a smile: "My husband and I are from out of town. We are going to Wuchang Mansion. We don't know the way. Can you give us some directions?"
The young man thought for a while and said, "I'm going to the Dongshan Village ahead to find a miracle doctor to save people. If you're not in a hurry, just come with me. I just want to go back to Wuchang Mansion!"
Qin Ke nodded happily and said, "That's great!" It was more convenient to have someone lead the way than to find the way by himself, so Qin Ke naturally agreed in a hurry.
