In the morning, Qingfeng reminded Lin Ze: "Young Sect Master, according to your agreement with the Sect Master, you will be returning to the Imperial Master's Mansion tomorrow. I hope you can make preparations in advance to avoid being driven by the old Taoist to fly to Chang'an again."
Lin Ze looked at the cold and windy weather, and then remembered that he almost didn't freeze to death last time, and said quickly: "This time we ride into Chang'an, so we won't waste the elder's energy."
Xu Fu is now the second biggest "thigh" held by Lin Ze. Lin Ze definitely cannot refuse, of course, mainly because he cannot refuse.
So Lin Ze found Hu Hai and handed over all the military affairs of the Sirius Army.
Seeing Lin Ze explaining all the follow-up matters to him, Hu Hai couldn't help but asked doubtfully: "Lin Ze, aren't you only going for one day? Why are you so careful when talking so much?"
Lin Ze shook his head: "Next, the Heavenly Wolf Army will be handed over to the young master. I will stay in Chang'an for a while to sort out the martial arts."
Hu Hai was stunned: "But you take care of it well, why did you suddenly hand it over to me? Besides, haven't you been practicing in the military, and I don't think you have been affected in any way."
Lin Ze smiled slightly: "Sir, actually I am also thinking about you. After all, you are the commander-in-chief of the army. Now that I have completed the preliminary integration of the army, and the whole army still has some resentment towards me, it is you who
When we have full control of the Sirius Army."
Hu Hai was puzzled: "But why do I want to fully control the Sirius Army? I can do it with you."
Lin Ze said nothing, just looked up at the sky.
Hu Hai remembered that Lin Ze had done the same thing a few days ago, and he understood what he was worried about, and said angrily: "Father, you don't know that."
"Sir, be careful," Lin Ze signaled Hu Hai not to continue talking. It's good that everyone knows some things well. Emperor Qin gave the Sirius Army to Hu Hai, not to Lin Ze.
Lin Ze can train this army well, and he can also have the command of this army, but he will occupy this army no matter what. This is the bottom line.
Since Duke Huan of Qi lost his military power, leading to the incident at Sand Dune Palace, all the monarchs have tightly held on to their military power and will not let it go easily.
Looking at the Qin Dynasty, there are 200,000 forbidden troops, hundreds of thousands of local troops, and the five major frontier military offices. No general dares to say that the army belongs to his family. Unless he is impatient.
After bidding farewell to Hu Hai, Lin Ze took the four elders of Fang Xiandao and rode directly back to the Imperial Master's Mansion in Chang'an City.
However, as soon as Lin Ze entered Chang'an this time, he felt something was wrong. There seemed to be fewer pedestrians on the road, and the walking became a little hurried. However, Lin Ze suppressed this doubt in his heart and went to see Xu Fu first.
Xu Fu calculated Lin Ze's numerology first as usual. This time Lin Ze's numerology line persisted for a while longer than last time before it was broken, which made Xu Fu very annoyed and helpless.
Lin Ze waited for Xu Fu to finish his busy work, and then asked: "Teacher, my disciple is about to reach the middle grade. I wonder if the teacher can give him any warning?"
Xu Fu stretched out his hand, casually explored the situation inside Lin Ze's body, and said seriously: "It's too early, be pragmatic and based on the basics, and advance slowly."
Lin Ze continued to ask: "Disciple heard that there is an extreme promotion method, does the teacher know about it?"
Xu Fu nodded: "I know a little bit."
Lin Ze pretended not to understand and asked: "Teacher, what is the limit?"
Xu Fu replied casually: "Practice to the extreme, that's the limit."
Lin Ze asked for a long time, but Xu Fu, an old and cunning old man, didn't even have any real words, so he had to ask directly:
"Disciple heard that the third level of martial arts has the power of one hundred thousand kilograms of energy and blood, but the disciple possesses the top level of heaven-level skills, and the upper limit is only sixty thousand kilograms. I wonder if the teacher has any other methods?"
Xu Fu took a deep look at Lin Ze and said, "Don't even think about one hundred thousand catties. Except for those with extraordinary talents and saints, I have never heard of anyone who can achieve the power of one hundred thousand catties of energy and blood."
Lin Ze immediately asked: "Then what does the teacher think the disciple should do to reach his own limit, or where does the teacher think the disciple's limit is?"
Xu Fu looked at Lin Ze with a half-smile, and Lin Ze looked at him pretending not to know anything.
After looking at each other for three breaths, Xu Fu suddenly said: "Wait for me here for a moment," and then turned around and disappeared.
Lin Ze was bored and silently counted how many seconds it would take for Xu Fu to come back: "123." As soon as the third beat fell, Xu Fu returned to him.
Xu Fu casually handed a small bottle to Lin Ze: "Inside are the lotus seeds of the sixth-grade earth treasure Tongtian Blood Lotus. There are three of them. Take them back and take them after you reach the point where you can no longer improve. It should be enough to give you 80,000 kilograms of strength."
Lin Ze quickly took it with a smile and carefully kept it in his arms. This is a good thing.
Then he asked cautiously: "The disciple still has a Marrow Cleansing Pill and a Tongtian Pill, plus the lotus seeds of the Tongtian Snow Lotus, I wonder if we can go one step further?"
Xu Fu glanced at Lin Ze in surprise: "I didn't expect you to have such a good thing, but Tongtian Pill and Tongtian Blood Lotus, don't you think the names are a bit similar?"
Lin Ze felt a little confused: "Are these two the same thing?"
"The Taoist Tongtian Pill is made from Tongtian Blood Lotus as the main medicine. So, do you think it is useful to take it repeatedly? But the Marrow Cleansing Pill is a good thing, and it can bring you one step closer."
Lin Ze hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Disciple heard that the legendary saint's essence and blood can make people break through the limit of one hundred thousand kilograms. I wonder if the teacher knows about this?"
"There is such a saying in the legend, but do you know what the essence and blood of the saint represent?"
Lin Ze tried to say: "Disciples heard that there are Taoist sages in Taoism, Confucian sages in Confucianism, and Buddhas in Buddhism. They are all legendary saints. The essence and blood of the saints are naturally their essence and blood."
Xu Fu shook his head: "You are right, but you are also wrong. The three of them can be considered saints, but there are more than just the three of them."
Lin Ze asked curiously: "Are there other saints? Are there many saints?"
Xu Fu replied: "All warriors who have broken through to the ninth level of martial arts immortality can be called saints. The saint's essence and blood you mentioned are the essence and blood of the strongest martial arts. If you have the ability to get their essence and blood
, do you still need to care about the third-grade limit?”
Lin Ze was at a loss for words and asked unwillingly: "Didn't the saint pass down such good things?"
Xu Fu shook his head, wondering why the child suddenly became stupid: "Do you think you would feed ants your own essence and blood? To a saint, how are we different from ants?"
Lin Ze thought that was not necessarily the case, maybe there was such a person.
"Can the ninth level of martial arts really lead to immortality?" Lin Ze finally asked the question he was most concerned about.
"I don't know." Xu Fu replied, "But as far as I know, they have definitely existed much longer than the average eighth-grade people. According to records, they have all lived for at least tens of thousands of years."
For tens of thousands of years, Lin Ze was amazed in his heart.
Lin Ze asked carefully about some key points that need to be paid attention to when breaking through to the middle level.
Xu Fu also explained to him patiently, but Xu Fu was talking about the mind breakthrough method, and gave Lin Ze two related secret methods.
Lin Ze left the Imperial Master's Mansion with his harvest again.
By the way, Lin Ze is still far away from the fourth rank. Why did he ask Xu Fu about these things? Firstly, he will soon follow Hu Hai to the Baiyue Land and will not be able to return to Chang'an in a short time. Secondly, the last time he treated Xu Fu
I don't quite believe what he said, so I wanted to test it out.
It's just that the amount of information this time exceeded Lin Ze's imagination.
After Lin Ze took leave from the Imperial Prefecture, he returned to the Lin Mansion. When he saw Huang Banban, he first briefly talked about the affairs of the general camp.
At the end of the sentence, he casually asked: "I think Chang'an City seems to be a bit depressed. I wonder what happened?"
Huang Banban's face tightened, and he dismissed the others, and then said: "Many people have disappeared in Chang'an City recently, and some people have seen many bloodthirsty monsters outside the city. No matter how Tingwei Mansion and Chang'an Mansion track them down,
, and I didn’t find out who was behind it.”
When Lin Ze heard this, his expression changed slightly: "Are there any other rumors?"
Huang Banban shook his head: "There is no specific conclusion so far. This matter is unusual. Lin Ze, don't pry too much."
Lin Ze nodded. Not only is it deep, but there are things in Chang'an City that Tingwei Mansion and Chang'an Mansion can't jointly find out? All fools know that things are unusual. Lin Ze will not put himself in trouble just because of his curiosity.
