The stronger his martial arts cultivation is, the faster his physical fitness increases. Huang An's digestion speed of alien meat porridge also increases correspondingly.
He still has about five kilograms of exotic animal meat left, which can only last for ten days at most.
As for the remaining two body-building techniques, mantis and fox, even without the aid of exotic animal meat, Huang An can confidently practice them all within ten days.
After all, throughout the five internal organs stage, a fully integrated body-training method alone can gradually push a warrior's energy and blood power to a relatively good stage.
Huang An practiced the turtle character body-building method the most, and on the day after it was completed, it had pushed his martial arts realm to the late stage of the five internal organs realm.
At that time, his physical strength was considered adequate and he could start preparing to break through the Six Fu realm.
Later, Huang An gradually learned all the remaining five body-building techniques in the Zhao Family Martial Arts School. Although these body-building techniques have certain differences, their ultimate main purpose is to continue to enhance the practitioner's Qi and blood.
Huang An assisted with precious medicine and exotic animal meat to speed up the process.
As he practices more body-building techniques, his Qi and blood will be stronger, his physical condition will be better, his martial arts foundation will be more stable, and his internal illnesses will become milder.
And the super strong power of Qi and blood, in turn, fed Huang An into practicing new body-building techniques.
It's like rolling a snowball, getting bigger and bigger until it reaches the limit of the snowball.
And Huang An is now vaguely aware of the existence of this limit. It is estimated that after he has learned the remaining two body-building methods and continues to practice new body-building methods, it will have no effect.
Unless he can get the meat of exotic beasts again and break the limits of his body.
No wonder the senior sister said at the beginning that the limit of a warrior is the nine body-building techniques. Huang An initially thought it was due to the warrior's different physical talent or lack of understanding.
Now it seems that it is not worthwhile to continue practicing.
Huang An took advantage of the time he was wearing the automatic cleaning suit to think about it.
But suddenly, a big doubt popped up in my mind.
"Then since practicing the nine types is useless, why create the thirty-six types?"
Huang An paused, frowned and thought for a while, but to no avail.
After putting on protective clothing, I walked aside and cleaned up the garbage.
There must be a certain secret hidden in it, but Huang An knows that he is not qualified to know the secret now.
What I should consider most now is where to prepare to serve as a soldier.
Senior Sister Zhao Yan provided Huang An with a lot of useful information.
Huang An now has two options to choose from. The first is to report to the Feng'an City Lord's Mansion as a five-viscera realm warrior and a former disciple of the Zhao Family Martial Arts School.
Waiting for the arrangements from the city lord's palace, the unified and later ones will go to Youzhou together under the organization of the Feng'an City government.
However, after the autumn harvest, the city lord's palace will organize manpower to join the army in Youzhou with them.
After all, the harvest is a major event, and the military service in the Ming Dynasty is similar to the military service in the ancient dynasties that Huang An has learned about.
Military service will not be organized until farmers have finished their work in the fields.
Now that the new year has just passed, there are still more than eight months until the autumn harvest.
This is too long!
Huang An was quite helpless about this, and he was actually a little hesitant about this choice.
However, Huang An also had to say that the certificate given to him by his master saved him a lot of trouble.
Even if he is expelled from the martial arts gym, he is still considered a martial artist with a clean slate, and he can still continue to do things in Zhao Dun's name.
The second way is to leave Feng'an City and go directly to Youzhou to join the army.
The route is very simple, Huang An asked about it.
He needs to go out from the west gate of Feng'an City, follow the official road between the east bank of Bailong River and the foot of Yunshan Mountain, go all the way north, pass through Fen County, and then transfer to Youzhou City to report to the commander's residence.
However, this road is difficult and full of dangers.
This method saves time and can directly enter the army. If you perform meritorious service, you may be able to obtain the advanced skills of the Six Fu Realm very quickly.
Both situations have their own advantages and disadvantages.
Senior Sister Zhao originally suggested that Huang An report to the city lord's palace and wait for the other warriors to go to Youzhou together.
Huang An thought for a long time and decided to check the situation first. Although his body had recovered a lot, the time left for him was still not enough for him to wait for more than eight months in vain.
However, the risk factor of going directly to Youzhou is too great.
When Huang An inquired about the route, everyone in the know swore that there were thieves acting as alien mountain people blocking the road, stealing money and killing people at every turn.
There were also many bandits in the Ming Dynasty.
Some people even have the guts to say that those Ming thieves are actually soldiers and bandits, pretending to be frontier troops. These people are even more ruthless, and they will almost die if they encounter them.
The more he inquired, the more frightened Huang An became. He actually had the urge to wait for the Lord of Feng'an City to organize the manpower to go to Youzhou in the fall.
However, how could Huang An know that life would be unsatisfactory nine times out of ten, and he would soon have to flee Feng'an City.
Joining the army is too important to be rash.
Huang An realized that he needed to find out more information and find a foolproof strategy to be more stable. It would be best to ask his two senior sisters for their opinions.
Therefore, Huang An set a goal for himself. In the next few days, when he went to Feng'an City to buy Guiyuan Tang and arrange the medicinal materials for Wu Zang Tang, he would find people, especially those with military background, to inquire about Youzhou.
The situation of the city.
Of course, before that, Huang An needs to prepare a handy weapon for himself.
A cold weapon, not a pistol.
Pistols are firearms and are prohibited weapons by Ming Dynasty. No individual is allowed to possess firearms.
Although others might not recognize him when he pulled out a pistol, as long as he kills someone with a pistol, it will definitely be classified as a type of firearm.
Huang An needs a cold weapon that can be handy without revealing his identity.
This matter was given the highest priority by Huang An.
But first, Huang An needs to determine the type of weapon.
After multiple considerations, I referred to the historical data from my hometown, the introduction of weapons, and the comments of some netizens with great imagination.
Based on what he heard while practicing martial arts in the martial arts hall and chatting with old veteran Li, Huang An decided to choose an alloy iron spear as his weapon.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Huang An acted cautiously and chose the iron gun as a protective weapon, not out of pure interest, but because of his own considerations.
Everyone often says that the sword is the king of weapons.
But for Huang An, the sword is too useless for him.
In Huang An's hometown, swords were just ordinary weapons a long time ago, no different from swords, guns and clubs.
But later, the sword was given the concept of a ritual instrument and an accessory, and was hung on the waist of literati.
Therefore, it has symbolic meaning. Big figures with high status, especially literati, are equipped with swords!
Later, he also got the title of King of One Hundred Soldiers.
Its symbolic significance is greater than its practical significance.
In Huang An's hometown, during the long era of cold weapon war, it makes sense that the broadsword could replace the sword and become the standard weapon in the army.
Even swords are modified when used in the military.
The swords in the hands of the sergeants are different from the ordinary swords that ordinary people think of.
The first swords in the army were one and a half meters long and were used on chariots. Later, swords were replaced by weapons such as broadswords.
Even the sword used by Qi Jiguang to deal with Japanese pirates was a modified epee.
Looking through history, among the fierce generals who have actual combat experience and are famous in the army, among those fierce generals who rush to the front and personally enter the enemy camp, which one is the one who wields the sword?
Furthermore, in the Ming Dynasty, swords also served as ritual objects and decorations, so they were naturally more valuable than iron spears. They were more likely to be coveted by others and more likely to bring harm to the owner.
The iron gun Huang An needs, its material and style all determine that it will not make people want to rob it.
One inch long, one inch strong, suitable for wherever you place it.
For a warrior like Huang An, who is at the first level of martial arts, weapons such as spears, broadswords, and long sticks are all excellent weapons.
Among them, the iron gun is the simplest and easiest to master, and you can kill the enemy just by picking it up.
The spear is almost the first choice of all Wu Zang realm warriors before joining the army.
Warriors in the five internal organs realm and the six internal organs realm spend almost all their energy and time on body training methods to increase the power of qi and blood.
The practice of weapon skills will inevitably be ignored.
Of course, those warriors who are temporarily or permanently trapped in the late Six Fu realm due to various reasons will choose to specialize in a weapon as a weapon for self-protection.
Even Huang An, who has the meat of exotic animals and enough precious medicine to maintain his practice, has not practiced the relevant weaponry yet.
He is busy improving his energy and blood strength, so how can he take care of the practice of cold weapons?
If you want to use weapons such as knives, hammers, and axes smoothly and possess combat effectiveness, you must undergo a relatively long period of hard training.
There is no need for a spear, it is simpler than a spear, it is extremely easy to get started and it is extremely fast to get started.
Although it is difficult to master it, it is definitely enough to be used as a protective weapon to kill enemies in the army.
Making an iron gun is easy, Huang An can make it himself, but how can he have so much time?
He directly placed an order for customization at Goudong Mall in his hometown, and asked the merchant to make the iron gun old.
The barrel of this iron gun is not made of wood, nor is it a hollow steel pipe, but a solid steel alloy.
The entire spear is made entirely of alloy steel and weighs up to thirty kilograms.
If this kind of all-alloy spear were in a normal army or among normal soldiers, it would certainly attract the attention of others.
However, there are countless warriors in the Ming army, and the strength of these warriors is different from ordinary people. Even the warriors who are new to martial arts use weapons made entirely of iron.
And in order to avoid exposing one's own secrets and cover up the extraordinary material of the iron gun itself.
Huang An not only secretly added money to let the merchants do the work, but also asked the merchants to remove the fancy decorations and patterns, and even the materials for forging the iron guns were also required.
It is best not to use high-quality steel for the outer layer of the iron gun. Just use ordinary ones, the kind that will leave a mark when smashed.
When the time comes, the tattered appearance of the spear will not only conceal its own secrets, but also confuse the opponent.
Of course, the gun tip must be sharp enough not to break, and not too tough.
The quality of steel in Huang An's hometown far exceeds that of the Ming Dynasty, at least judging from the weapons Huang An is currently exposed to.
Even if it is a weapon used for collection and training, its material is still very good in the entire Ming Dynasty.
Huang An was practicing martial arts in the martial arts hall. In the yard next to the martial arts training ground, there was a yard where weapons were placed.
Huang An also specially tested the material of the weapon inside, and it was indeed not as good as the dagger he kept with him.
