Walking side by side with Tai Shici, Guan Yu's expression was very strange, both shocked and confused. His eyes seemed to have a little more sparkle. In short, they were quite complicated. When he spoke, his tone was low and he could not hide the shock.
"That's right, General Guan has noticed it!"
Taishi Ci did not mean to hide it at all, and said calmly: "Just a year ago, all the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army began to practice Qi refining, and the results can only be said to be average!"
"Wha, what, all the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army have started practicing Qi refining?"
With Guan Yu's character, he couldn't help but his face suddenly changed and he took a deep breath. He looked at Tai Shi Ci as if he were a fool, and his tone was trembling: "Do you know how serious the consequences of doing this are?
"
Although his background was not too high, he did not come from an ordinary family. Otherwise, he would not have been able to learn the method of refining qi. In his prime, he became a world-famous peerless warrior.
Without a high-level Qi refining method, even with his physical talent, no matter how hard he worked, he would still be at the level of a third-rate general, even inferior to many lesser-known Yellow Turban generals.
At least, although all the Yellow Turban generals came from poor backgrounds, they basically had to teach the secret Qi refining methods of Taiping Dao, but there were some depths and some shallowness.
However, even Taiping Taoist leader Jiao, who calls himself General Tiangong, has no intention of actively spreading the secret Qi refining methods taught within the Yellow Turbans.
Therefore, Guan Yu had a very deep understanding of the importance of Qi refining method.
The method of refining qi is the core foundation of every family. The level of the method of refining qi is the expression of the strength of the family. The children of the clan who have practiced the method of refining qi are the core strength of a family.
Each of those famous aristocratic families has one or more Qi-refining methods that reach the level of first-class or even higher generals. The level of Qi-refining methods in the hands of local powerful families can only be regarded as second- or third-rate.
Unless a military general is exceptionally gifted, he or she will only be a second-rate general at the highest level.
In the current troubled times where heroes are vying for the throne, the gap between first-rate military generals and second-rate generals is the gap between the strength and power of the families behind them.
Therefore, the Qi refining method for cultivating killing generals, like knowledge and technology, is a core resource that is firmly controlled by aristocratic families and must not be spread.
Anyone who dares to do such a thing will be the public enemy of the world. All the aristocratic families in the world, including local powerful people and so-called poor families, will unite to strangle him without mercy!
Now, I heard that the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were spreading the Qi-refining method to train generals in the field of killing, and they were simply trying to annihilate themselves from the world. Such behavior was extremely crazy in Guan Yu's eyes.
At this time, Guan Yu's mind was buzzing, and a strong thought flashed through his mind: Should he turn around and leave? He, his eldest brother Liu Bei, and others must not get too close to the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, otherwise they will definitely be in trouble in the future.
But in the end, he was so proud and arrogant that he gave up such cowardly thoughts, but still looked at Taishi Ci who had a calm face next to him, and said with difficulty: "Ziyi, your department is promoting the method of refining qi in the army, is it possible?
Aren’t you afraid of causing strong reactions from the outside world?”
"General Guan has a good idea, but we Qingzhou Yellow Turbans also have our own considerations!"
Taishi Ci turned his head and said helplessly: "Even if we, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, don't do anything, how could aristocratic families anywhere accept us?"
this……
Guan Yu was speechless for a moment, Tai Shici's question went straight to the core. Even if the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans did nothing, just because of their status as Yellow Turbans, they could not be expected to be let go by the wealthy families.
"Since everything is the same, why should we care about the outside world's opinions?"
Taishi Ci smiled softly, revealing two rows of shining white teeth, and said arrogantly: "No matter who is displeased with the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, come and kill them if you have the ability. We will see the truth on the battlefield. The rest is nonsense and there is no need to talk more!"
Hearing this, Guan Yu didn't feel insulted, he just looked at each other and smiled bitterly with Mi Zhu next to him. The Qingzhou Yellow Turbans are really domineering. I wonder if their strength can support their arrogance?
…
"Oh, what Liu Shijun wants is to invite the Yellow Turban Army to attack Yuan Shu together!"
In the main hall of the palace of the leader of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, Lei Hu personally received Guan Yu who was visiting for important matters. After hearing the other party's intention, he curiously asked: "General Guan, isn't Liu Shijun afraid of attracting criticism?"
Yuan Shu, a fool like him, didn't know what he was thinking. Before the heroes could decide the outcome of the melee, he actually played the trick of proclaiming himself emperor.
Even if he gets He's Bi, there is no need to commit suicide like this. Originally, everyone was a prince. Now that you have become emperor, where will you kill a bunch of princes?
Of course, the late Han Dynasty in this world was unusual. Even immortals appeared. Obviously, the Heshi Bi as a symbol of the emperor's throne would not be simple. If this thing falls into the hands of Yuan Shao or Cao Cao, or even falls into the hands of Liu Bei, it may appear.
Lei Hu had to consider whether it was necessary to take direct action against the surprising and shocking changes.
If it were Yuan Shu, there wouldn't be such a worry. Although this guy is a direct descendant of the Yuan family, unfortunately his abilities are very average. His good cards have been beaten to pieces, and he doesn't have any powerful characters that he can use.
Just a general, Ji Ling, heard that his martial arts skills were only at the bottom of the first-class military generals. It really didn't matter, and it was very easy to deal with him.
However, Liu Bei's actions surprised him very much. You must know that the reputation of the Yellow Turban Army is very bad. It can be said that it is not in the eyes of the princes at all. It is the existence of the big families behind the princes that everyone wants to fight.
Liu Bei actually invited the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army to jointly deal with Yuan Shu. Regardless of the inside story, once the news spreads, Liu Bei's reputation will definitely be affected. This is certain.
It's not that I'm worried about Liu Bei's conspiracy. The Qingzhou Yellow Turbans are already strong enough to ignore them. If they really get angry, Liu Bei's group will definitely not be able to withstand the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army's retaliation. Even if Zhang is involved, the result will be the same.
After more than three years of silent accumulation, the strength of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army has reached a level that is absolutely unimaginable to the natives. Even when compared with the generals alone, their combat power is not inferior to that of any princely force.
Taishi Ci has firmly entered the ranks of peerless warriors. Even Guan Hai and Wu Anguo have reached the top level and are not far from the threshold of peerless warriors.
Even if you are surrounded by them, there will be no benefits. Unless you are a fierce man like Lu Bu, there will definitely be no good results if you are surrounded by Taishi Ci and other three Yellow Turban generals.
At the same time, because all the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army have practiced the method of refining Qi, a group of extremely talented martial arts masters have emerged. However, the time is too short and it will take about ten years for them to fully grow up, so it is not expected for the time being.
superior.
However, under the guidance of Lei Hu, Tai Shici and others, the strength of the third- and fourth-rate generals in the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army has grown by leaps and bounds in the past three years, and nearly a hundred of them have become second-rate generals in one fell swoop.
It can only be said that the Taiping Taoism advocated a great contribution in cultivating a large number of poor disciples who practiced the unique Qi refining method of the Yellow Turban Army. However, when the Yellow Turban raised the flag, these Yellow Turbans who had considerable martial arts talents had not yet arrived.
The backbone has completely grown up, otherwise the Yellow Turban Army's original momentum and strength would be completely different.
Of course, Lei Hu popularized the method of refining Qi without any selfish motives. The temporary martial arts training camp established in the form of rotation training was also very effective. With the guidance of Lei Hu and the peerless warriors, as long as the body was not completely broken, there was still a possibility of progress, and he was willing to work hard.
If so, it can be easily upgraded.
Among them, Lei Hu’s guidance contribution is not small.
His understanding of the human body has reached an astonishing level, and coupled with his own realm and strength, he can easily guide a group of yellow turban generals who are at the third or fourth level in strength.
That's right, three years of training has allowed Lei Hu to completely recover.
Although he didn't have any top-level Qi refining methods for reference, he didn't force Taishi Ci to volunteer. However, the realm of earthly immortals was the realm of earthly immortals. In terms of realm alone, Taishici was far behind, and he had to be at least one level higher.
It's just that he has always shown himself in front of others with his wisdom and tricks, and there is no need to use his own methods to scare others, so he has never been known to others.
In other words, as the chaos in the late Han Dynasty became more and more serious, the struggle for hegemony among the princes in various places had reached a crazy stage where people's brains are like dogs' brains, and it has become difficult to unite together against a certain powerful force.
Besides, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban could not attract too much attention from the great princes. Lei Hu believed that the Qingzhou Yellow Turban had accumulated enough, and it was time to show off its sharp claws and let the princes of the world see it.
Unexpectedly, someone gave him a pillow just as he fell asleep. Liu Bei, who had become the lord of Xuzhou, actually sent Guan Yu with a message and solemnly invited the Qingzhou Yellow Turban to besiege Yuan Shu, who claimed to be emperor.
This is a good opportunity to show his face. Yuan Shu is not strong and has a bad reputation. As long as he doesn't go on a killing spree like Cao Cao did in Xuzhou, or shouts slogans like "Heaven is dead and Huang Tian is here to stand", there is basically nothing he can do about it.
There will be too many side effects.
Of course, even if there are sequelae, Lei Hu doesn't care much, unless the aristocratic families collectively attack, and they have to send out the powerful characters they have at their disposal.
By killing Zhang Jiao before, the last powerful force of the Han Dynasty to intimidate the world was almost lost. If he wants to do it again this time, what he will lose is the power of the aristocratic family itself.
Guan Yu didn't know that Lei Hu had already thought a lot in just a short moment. He felt embarrassed at this moment, but he had to explain it carefully, otherwise his eldest brother Liu Bei would be really worried if the Qingzhou Yellow Turban stood by and watched.
That's right, in addition to worrying about possible changes within Xuzhou, Liu Daer'er is actually most worried about the possible actions of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans.
If the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army takes advantage of the moment when he sends troops to attack Xuzhou, they may not be able to withstand such a violent blow.
After seeing Taishi Ci's strength, Guan Yu was convinced at this time!
