Chapter 4: Steamed buns made with heart

"This is the Grand Canal. It is really a great project."

Shibi Khan opened his mouth wide. Even though he looked like a Turkic Khan, he looked like a bumpkin at the moment.

They are in Yong'an County, which has entered the jurisdiction of Jiannan Road, but is still close to the border. However, due to the blockage of a mountain range, the wind and sand cannot invade every plant and tree here. Instead, a mountain separates the desert of death and the jungle of vitality.

The magnificent scenery.

Yong'an County is the first county after this jungle, and it can also be said to be one of the ends of the Grand Canal.

"Can you keep a low profile? It's hard to say whether those killers will catch up again." Zuo Zhou handed over two buns to Shibi Khan.

"The main reason is that it's too shocking."

Zuo Zhou looked at the rippling river water. This was just a tributary within a tributary. It was only two or three feet wide. It was difficult for you to associate it with the word "great".

Shibi Khan looked at the doubts on Zuo Zhou's face, and his tone was full of yearning, "You don't understand, you don't understand the admiration of the Qin Emperor from all countries. How many kings can stop fighting and stop fighting when the situation is overwhelming? No.

People think he is stupid, even if we are enemies, but this does not affect our respect for him!"

Zuo Zhou turned his head silently, his eyes falling on the river, but he thought of the changes in the current situation over the years.

In the year when these exiles were born, Emperor Qin Zhengge ascended the throne and started a ten-year conquest. Countless countries fell under the iron heel of the Qin Dynasty.

However, just when everyone thought that the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, Turks, Qing, etc. states would be destroyed by Qin within three years, Emperor Qin ordered the withdrawal of troops and stopped the ten-year conquest.

That year, Zuo Zhou was exactly ten years old.

No one knows the reason, and no one cares about the reason. All countries are afraid that too much exploration will anger the 'evil dragon' again, and all they want is to hope that he will die young and quickly. Only in this way can they

Can sleep well!

Now six years have passed. During these six years, Emperor Qin's temper seems to have been particularly gentle. He emphasized culture and education, built roads and rivers, and carried out infrastructure construction.

Even if there are occasional frictions on the border, Emperor Qin will choose peace talks first and then judge according to law. It seems that he is unwilling to start a war lightly.

"Tell me, why would someone want to assassinate the Turkic mission?"

Zuo Zhou's words made Shibi Khan stunned for a moment, and then like a frightened mouse, he glanced left and right and put his index finger on his lips, "Please lower your voice, can you, a commoner, talk about national affairs?"

Zuo Zhou(;¬_¬)

"Forget it, get ready to get on the boat." Zuo Zhou said and walked towards the dock ahead. Several men carrying large bags were unloading the goods up and down.

"Oh wait, it's getting dark now. We don't need to be in such a hurry. I haven't had a good night's sleep in the past few days." Shibi Khan said and touched his belly, and he actually felt very good about the situation.

Called twice, "Hungry!"

"I gave you a bun, did it go into the dog's belly?"

Khan tilted his head pitifully, and saw on the steps not far away, a noble man in blue clothes, surrounded by his servants, throwing buns into a pile of beggars.

Zuo Zhou's face turned red. Fortunately, there was no trace of dirt on his face. "Ahem, in a remote country, everyone uses copper coins. It's a bit conspicuous for me to take out the broken silver. Besides, these buns are freshly baked, so they are not dirty."

Shibi Khan did not make trouble unreasonably, but just nodded, "I know, but this bun is really not hungry. It is small, has plain filling, and contains a lot of air. It almost burned me."

This is a bit embarrassing. After all, it is used to give alms to beggars. Can you expect others to put more care into making it?

"Okay, then let's rent a boat and park it in the front section of the river tonight, so that all the sailors are on the boat and we don't have to worry about anyone leaking the news."

Zuo Zhou compromised. After all, it was the Turkic Khan in front of him. He was really wronged. He would have to walk around without food.

"Listen to you, Guard Zuo is really thoughtful!"

Zuo Zhou ignored him and went to rent a boat. Although the money was very small, the purchasing power in this small county and town was very strong. The small amount of silver as big as a fingernail made the boat owner happy. In the evening, he even prepared a reception with good wine and food.

them.

This made Shibi Khan extremely happy. He was so moved that he was moved to tears while eating white rice and chicken drumsticks. Zuo Zhou sat on the bed and turned around without even looking!

As soon as people calm down, they start to think, should they practice the magic of cassock subduing demons?

In Zuo Zhou's three opportunities, he drew the third-grade archery technique of Continuous Arrows, the third-grade internal power of Taoist health-preserving skills, and the incomplete sword and sword move eleven.

This third-grade archery is a super powerful attack method. It can fire two arrows in succession. When the back arrow catches up with the front arrow, the power can be transmitted together, thus bursting out with unprecedented power. The one where he killed the viper before

That's what the arrow is.

It's a pity that this continuous archery technique has no supporting internal strength, and it has no true meaning of martial arts, so it can only be classified into the third level.

As for Taoist health-preserving skills, this is too much to complain about. Although it is said to be an internal skill, it cannot cultivate any internal power at all!

As the name suggests, the effect of Taoist health-preserving skills is to maintain health. All the internal energy gained through cultivation is used to nourish the meridians, internal organs, muscles, bones, skin and even hair.

Now Zuo Zhou is deliberately dressing dirty to make himself look more masculine in the army. If you clean and dress carefully, you will find that he is also a pretty boy. Anyone who looks at him will have a sense of belonging.

.

However, in this world, being handsome cannot protect you. On the contrary, it may become a disaster. Therefore, except for Zuo Old Man, basically no one has seen Zuo Zhou's beautiful appearance.

If Taoist health-preserving skills have any advantage, it is that they can be practiced from an infant, which can be described as an alternative ‘unique skill’ that lays the foundation.

The reason why it is classified into the third grade is because except for the exiles who have their own memories, which baby can practice the exercises on their own? Therefore, the idea of ​​laying the foundation from the infant stage is nonsense to the indigenous people of this world.

There is a huge difference between practicing in infancy and practicing in adolescence. After all, from birth, the human body will be affected by the environment, and the internal organs will be contaminated by various filthy things. If you practice Taoist health-preserving skills at this time, it will not

Moisturize the internal organs, but detoxify first. I don’t know how many years it will take until the detoxification is completed. Who will learn this kind of exercise without internal strength at that time?

So now Zuo Zhou's physical foundation has been laid, but he urgently needs a kind of martial arts with internal strength. It would be better if it is a unique skill. However, Kasaya Demon Subduing Kung Fu does not have internal strength.

Then Zuo Zhou has two options: directly sacrifice the cassock to subdue the demons and continue the lottery, and bet on whether the skills he gets afterward will bring internal strength. Or, wait a little longer. After all, Buddhist martial arts are very common and can be regarded as the martial arts of various factions.

It's relatively easy to get, and the cassock demon subduing skill seems to be quite practical, so I'm a bit reluctant to part with it.

Similar to sacrificial items, sacrifice of skills also requires a price. All the skills that are sacrificed can no longer be practiced to a superb state. If you cannot practice to a superb state, you will not be able to display the artistic conception contained in the unique skills. If

It's good if the moves are subtle, but if the power mainly relies on artistic conception, then this unique skill will be useless.

Of course, there is no way out. If you can practice a certain kind of martial arts to perfection first, then you can sacrifice at will.

As for the last move of Sword Eleven on Zuo Zhou's body...

Boom!

"..."

Zuo Zhou's meditation was interrupted. He opened his eyes and looked at Shibi Khan with a confused look on his face, "Are you... dead? Not a word!"

My chicken legs... At the beginning, Khan collapsed on the ground, the chicken wings from the corners of his mouth slid down the oil stains, and his eyes moved downwards.

"Okay, I know you're not dead, so... is the food poisonous? But I ate it too!" Zuo Zhou glanced at the food again and listened attentively. There were several sailors bragging and farting outside, and they came in at one o'clock to rob.

It doesn't even mean anything.

"It doesn't look like them, so it's those two buns!!!"
