This big thing is to take a good look at the classics in the secret realm of Thunder Cloud Cave. If you can find something useful, try to advance to the dragon and tiger realm.
But if he couldn't find it, Li Boxen decided not to wait any longer. Almost a month ago, the spiritual energy in his body was full and he could advance to a higher level. But because he was afraid of the Demon King's clone, he decided to be fully prepared before taking the next step.
However, many of the things he has to do now are restricted by his realm, and he cannot let go. For example, although he has understood a lot of the art of summoning the Dharmakaya taught to him by Chang Xiu, some joints seem to require a higher level of understanding before he can have a deep understanding.
He wants to raise some armor, wood, and stone in that world, but now he has too much spiritual power in his body. If he stays there for a long time and waits, he may go crazy. If he doesn't wait, time will almost stand still as soon as he comes out of that world, and those things will no longer be able to be raised.
Moreover, perhaps in twenty or thirty days, the army of Sui Wujiu, Duke of Chebei, will arrive. Although Chang Xiu was full of confidence, Li Bochen knew well that he could not place his hopes on others. In case Sui Wujiu turns against him, he will be promoted to Dragon Tiger, and he will be able to use a little more mediation methods.
He was thinking about it now because he just mentioned eating monster meat. When I mentioned this, I remembered how difficult it was when I was practicing in Wuliang City. At that time, there was no profound practice, and there was no guidance from teachers. I had to rely on my own exploration. There were several signs of going crazy, but I managed to survive them all.
On the contrary, after leaving Wuliang City, I encountered many adventures, and my realm advanced by leaps and bounds. In just a few months, I became slack in my practice - and I actually planned to find a "failure-to-miss" method.
To practice this kind of thing is to go against destiny and become a god. Even if everything is fully prepared, there is no guarantee that there will be no mistakes. Otherwise, why would Tao Wenbao not want Tao Dingchen to practice? That's all I'm afraid of.
Naturally, we couldn't discuss these matters with the Meng family, but Mrs. Meng was very good at reading people's eyes, so she didn't ask any more questions.
The three of them drank wine and ate meat slowly. After waiting for less than half an hour, the vegetable soup in the pot was full of fat. At this time, Mrs. Meng served them soup and vegetables to eat. The mushrooms and tofu had absorbed the aroma of the meat in the fat, and after being simmered for so long, they were already smooth and tender. Put the soup into your mouth and eat it in just one sip.
By this time, even though Li Bochen boasted of being a big eater, he was still hiccupping. He quickly got a plate of blanched cabbage dipped in sauce to relieve his tiredness before he could eat another bowl.
When the moon reached its peak, he returned home happily and felt very comfortable. Fang Chu said that Mrs. Meng came here to receive a petition a few days ago. Does what she did tonight count as the same thing? The couple happily agreed, so I guess I hit it off with them.
When I returned to the house, I saw that the lights were all out, and even the room where Fang Junfeng and Xie Yusheng lived was silent. When Li Bochen saw that there was no one guarding the door, he was stunned for a moment - Fang Cheng was very cautious in doing things, so he wouldn't let anyone watch him tonight, would he?
When he thought of this, he saw the door of the reverse room opened, and Fang Yu whispered: "General, are you back?"
He hasn't slept yet. Li Boxen said: "There's something going on outside, so we've been delayed for a while."
After saying this, he suddenly felt a little guilty - he said last night that he was going to see those soldiers today, but he was busy all day today and went to see Lady Meng again at night. Although it was all business, at the end I got drunk and had to eat too much for a while, which was why I was delayed until now.
Fang Bao came over and whispered: "I asked people to guard outside tonight. I think that Fang Junfeng is a tough talker, so why not give him a chance? If he really escapes, he will be captured by the people outside. How arrogant Not so arrogant."
I see. This is indeed a good idea. Li Bochen smiled and said, "That's a good idea. Brother Fang, let's go into the room and talk."
The two entered the room. Li Bochen turned on the talisman lamp and couldn't help but yawned. Only then did he realize that he smelled of alcohol. He quickly shut up, thinking that Fang Yuan must have realized that he was drinking outside. Feeling a little embarrassed for a moment, he said: "Oh, there are too many things going on today. I originally wanted to go to the camp to see them, but I just came back at this time."
After saying this, Fang Yu said seriously: "General, this is what I wanted to tell you."
Li Boxen sighed in his heart and said: "...I know it's my fault. I'll go to the camp early tomorrow morning."
Fang Bao said: "That's what I want to say. Today I went to the camp and talked to them for a while. When I talked about what happened last night, I admire you very much. But someone actually made fun of you, saying that General, you look like He is a martial artist, but he talks and acts like a scholar. I don’t know whether it’s because the martial artist has read too many books, or because the scholar has practiced martial arts too much – this is so outrageous, I made those two people stand for a long time.”
Li Bochen was stunned for a moment, then smiled again and said, "It's not that serious, right?"
Fang Bao sighed and said: "General, I have known you for a long time and know what kind of person you are. If you ask me, you have a good temper and a kind heart. Most of the time, you are not merciless when you should strike. , but they people don’t know.”
"In the past two days, you have been so kind and nice to them. Some people will inevitably think that you are easy to bully. In this world, some people are more willing to accept the soft than the hard. For example, when it comes to going to the camp, I think, It's better that you didn't go today. You have to make them unable to figure out your temperament and see that there is some distance between you and them, so that they will respect you and be afraid of you. Otherwise, it will be a bit troublesome."
Li Boxen didn't expect what he said. He thought for a while before sitting down on the chair and frowning: "Brother Fang, I want to..."
He wanted to say, "I want everyone to know that these soldiers are not mine, but the entire Mengjiatun. Even if there is a city in the future, it will not be mine, but that city's."
There are also words such as "They come from the common people, and they must also want to benefit the common people." But after only saying a few words, he suddenly remembered Pei Jin, the commander-in-chief of the Infinite Army.
Pei Jin was really kind to him, and he was the one who appointed the position of commander of the Benlu Battalion. But now that Li Bochen thinks of this person, his first impression is that he is narrow-minded and easily irritable when things happen. Pei Jin is very kind to the people he likes, but he will use excuses to suppress those he doesn't like. When things go wrong in the war, he often gets angry. As a commander, he cannot stabilize the morale of the army.
At that time, he was leading troops to fight. Once he encountered any situation, he immediately knew what might happen if Pei Jin knew about it afterwards. This can be regarded as "being able to figure out his temperament", so everyone will think of various excuses in advance and save them to deal with his anger.
Fang Chu said that he wanted to make people unable to figure out his own temperament. It makes sense to think so.
Li Bochen thought again that his plan to mingle with his soldiers was actually because he was influenced by where he came from. It seems that the chief officer and the grassroots soldiers share the joys and sorrows, which can really inspire everyone's fighting spirit. But now that I think about it more carefully, I realize that I missed a very important point.
There are spirits in this world.
In fact, no matter what Fang Yu said, whether the person feels unfathomable kindness or power, or whether he is close to everyone, it is just for the sake of military morale.
But the reason why these eighteen people are willing to follow him is largely because his surname is Li. The surname of King Li means Beichen’s blessing. Even if he doesn't know whether he is a spiritual master, he still feels that he is a member of the orthodox. From this point of view, it can be considered that the military morale is available.
As for what they did in the past, it is indeed possible to make them feel that their leader is humane and understands the suffering of the grassroots, but it is best not to go too far.
What he is doing now, from his own point of view and where he comes from, does not deserve those four words. But from Fang Yu's perspective, maybe there's something really wrong here, right?
In this world, practitioners and powerful people are at the top, and everyone takes it for granted. Like those soldiers, if they see that they are so "approachable", I'm afraid some people's first thought is not "he is a good person", but "is there something wrong with him"?
Li Boxen thought in his heart, I came to this world, but I have never really become a person in this world until now. Although I can't see any difference in what I say, do, dress or eat, I still can't agree with some truths in this world. For example, although I don't know what happened to him, now I just think about Emperor Gao, and I don't feel how majestic and unpredictable he is, but just think of him as an emperor.
But many people in the world are afraid even if they think about it.
Li Bochen then said: "Brother Fang, what you said makes sense. I will pay more attention to it in the future. Fortunately, if you want to see them today, it doesn't count as a military order. Then... let it go according to your wishes."
Fang Chu was very happy that Li Bochen listened to his opinion and said with a smile: "General, then go to bed early."
Li Boxen said: "I have to go out tomorrow, so I'll give you a hard time over there. If I don't come back in the evening, don't worry, keep an eye on those two people."
Fang Chu said: "Follow the order!"
After he went out, Li Bochen returned to the east room and saw that the short brown man with torn sleeves was still on the bed. I felt a little sleepy after eating before, but now the drunkenness has gradually subsided, and I feel more sober. He thought for a moment, found his sewing box, and slowly sewed the gap open with the help of the talisman's light.
After sewing, I picked up the clothes and looked at them. I suddenly realized that my stitches seemed denser than Xiaoman's. Alas, this was probably her first time making clothes for others.
He put the short brown down and looked at the helmet aside. During the day, Zhou Pan presented this helmet, but he never had time to take a closer look at it. He just took it wherever he went. I just put it on the table and almost forgot about it. Li Boxen thought to himself, is it because I have too many things going on these days that my memory is not as good as before?
Now that I was holding the helmet in my hand, I realized that the black hairs outside the armor were actually very hard, like steel brushes. He picked up one and looked at it carefully, and felt that it was not iron or steel, but the fur of some animal.
That night, when I looked at the helmet from a distance, I felt that the armor was very bright. Now, if I look closely, I can actually find some scratches on it. A relatively deep one can already see the material inside. Li Boxen raised the talisman lamp and took a closer look, and found that there were extremely fine and dense holes in the scratches, as if they were made of wood.
He pulled out Yaohou and tried to scratch the corner of the helmet with the tip of the knife, but no mark was left at all.
Li Bochen was stunned - what kind of wood is this, so hard? The rotten wood I raised in that realm seemed to be inferior to it. He had only thought that this thing could control the earth energy in the secret realm before, and thought it was a treasure. But now that he took a closer look, he gradually realized that it might be even more unusual.
He looked at it carefully and felt that the helmet looked familiar, so he tried to frown and think about it. It took me a full quarter of an hour to finally remember where I had seen it.
It's not that I've seen this helmet, but I've seen something similar.
When he was in Wuliang City, he once entered Pei Jin's study and saw a portrait of a military commander hanging on the wall. The helmet worn by the general was similar in shape to the one in front of him. Both were covered with a layer of mane. But the general's helmet was more ornate, with gold and silver threads, and his mane was also fiery red, almost hanging down to his shoulders.
In fact, the shape of the armor in the portrait is also very strange. It is somewhat similar to his own black armor, but it is more gorgeous and covered with cloaks and burqas, which makes the person in the painting appear extraordinarily tall and majestic, like a divine general.
He asked curiously at that time, and Pei Jin said that it was the portrait of his first generation ancestor. This "first generation ancestor" refers to an ancestor from the ancient era of the gods.
Li Boxen knew about the "Age of the First Gods". In the past, Ying Ge told him that in the beginning, all things came into being between heaven and earth, and there were many fortunes. Some Yin spirits accidentally merged with fortune and became innate spirits. The Six Emperors, Three Demons, and many other gods, demons, and secret spirits were all born at that time. Different from those who later become spiritual gods through practice, these are called innate spiritual gods.
The Age of the Ancestor God refers to this period. No one can tell how long this period lasted, some say thousands of years, others say tens of thousands of years.
It was only after the Six Emperors established Netherworld that there was a history of trust in the human world. It has been more than seven thousand years since then - could this helmet be such an ancient relic? ?
When Li Bochen thought of this, he became even more curious. He turned the helmet over and over again and tried it on his head again. As soon as this thing is close to my body, I feel refreshed and the sounds around me become extra clear. It is indeed a treasure.
He stood up and walked around on the ground for a few times before sitting back on the bed and thinking about the helmet again. But after thinking for a while, I realized that the helmet was no longer at hand. I quickly stood up and looked around, but I couldn't see it anywhere.
He was so anxious that his forehead was sweating, so he raised his hand to wipe the sweat, and then he realized that the helmet was still on his head. He hurriedly took it down, and was stunned for a while, and he was very sure of one thing -
Today, the reactions of myself and others to this helmet are all wrong.
From the time he walked out of Changzhai to the time he returned home, he had this thing in his hand. But no one took a second look, and no one asked a question. Even I didn't remember until it was late at night and there was nothing to do.
But when I saw Zhu Hou wearing it in the secret realm that night, I was extremely happy. According to my usual temper, I have to play with it carefully once I get it.
When he thought of this, another thought suddenly came to his mind——
Could this thing, like the rotten wood and the armors I planned to make, be "raised" in a certain world?
