"No wonder the wolf guard is so strong! He can fight against many enemies alone."
He has just developed his Qi and blood, yet he can rely on the [Blood Coagulation] effect of the Blood Evil Technique to go head-to-head with these hundred households and not be at a disadvantage?
No wonder those barbarians become as ferocious as tigers as soon as they develop their qi and blood!
“This floor is too slippery!”
Captain Wang was supported by someone, and his face immediately turned red as he shook off the other person's hand.
The others, as if waking up from a dream, rushed forward to congratulate Xia He, and everyone's face showed undisguised envy.
It's amazing that such a talented martial artist could be born from such a small border guard post!
Although everyone has been practicing blood skills for many years, there may not be many who can be stronger than Captain Wang.
Although Captain Wang might not have used his full strength just now, it is clear from this brief confrontation how high Xia He's talent ceiling is.
Talent, talent, this is what many people dream of!
At this moment, Wang Erpang was stunned, and the excitement he had felt before instantly disappeared. He stared at Xia He with wide eyes, his legs went weak, and he almost knelt down to Xia He on the spot!
I was secretly glad that I held on to this extremely strong thigh. It was really worth it!
The noise here spread unhindered to a military tent in the distance. Captain Fan, who was handling military affairs in the tent, got up and rushed over when he heard the news that Xia He had successfully cultivated qi and blood.
"Have you really developed Qi and blood?"
As a strong man in the Bone Refining Realm, Fan Qianhu's eyes were as sharp as a knife. He could tell at a glance that the surging blood and energy in Xia He's body was not fake.
He looked at Xia He with eyes full of surprise and admiration as if he had discovered a rare unpolished jade. Then, he couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Good boy, such a strong character is really extraordinary."
He said several good words in a row, and countless inexplicable meanings flashed in his eyes.
Practicing martial arts for just over a month has already surpassed what most people would gain from eight or ten years of hard work.
The gap between martial arts talent and physique was fully visualized at this moment.
"Thanks to Captain Fan's cultivation."
Ever since I learned that the blood disease in the town was caused by Captain Fan.
After being stared at by him for a few times, Xia He felt goosebumps all over his body.
"Yes, the blood is strong and full of vitality."
"From now on, people of the same realm should not be your match..."
"Recently, I have reached a cooperation agreement with a nearby martial arts school. They will provide me with a large amount of medicinal materials. It looks like you will be able to complete the blood refining before the beginning of next spring?"
Xia He showed surprise at the right time.
"Has our guard station cooperated with the martial arts school?"
"good!"
"They should do their part to resist the barbarians."
"In addition, I will have people from the martial arts school come to the guard post to compete with you and learn martial arts."
Xia He remained silent, his face full of confusion.
The martial arts school was secretly supported by Captain Fan, and was arrogant and domineering on weekdays! Even the town commander dared to beat him up.
They also spread blood diseases everywhere to harm innocent people just to make money.
Now that the barbarians have just attacked, why have they suddenly changed their tempers? Have they become kind?
That afternoon, people from the martial arts school came with donkey carts loaded with large amounts of medicinal herbs and food.
The warehouse manager hurried forward and called on the new recruits in the kitchen camp to work together to start moving the supplies.
Before long, the originally empty warehouse was instantly filled with mountains of items.
The refugees in the town lived a miserable life, often not even having enough food to eat, and some even starved to death.
But they were only the lower-class people. There were also many wealthy people in this town who had fled from other places to escape famine.
Each of the martial arts schools is extremely wealthy.
Wang Erpang told Xia He privately that the martial arts school’s oppression of the people was getting worse and worse, and they even dared to beat the disobedient people to death with their own hands!
What do you rely on? Isn't it our Qianhu Lord?
But since he already had money and food, Xia He would not be so foolish as to stand up and oppose at this time.
For the military households in the garrisons, these benefits are real. After all, the blood-replenishing soup is too expensive, and how can their monthly military pay cover it?
It’s such a great thing!
If we really defeated the barbarians and performed a great deed, who would care about those common people at the bottom of society?
"Brother He, these things...should we take them?"
Wang Erpang was a little hesitant, and always felt a little guilty.
"Take it, why not?"
"The martial arts school extorts money from the people. If we don't use these medicines and food, will others not use them?"
"At least we were able to kill some barbarians when we used it, but it's not certain for others."
"Even if we really want to challenge the martial arts school, it's not now."
The plan after the spring is to get rid of the barbarians.
In the following days, there was only training.
Captain Fan is very ambitious and seems to really want to make a contribution in the army.
Even the military discipline has become much stricter recently, and everyone is training intensively, as if they feel that a war is really coming.
Just because they have the resources, most people don’t complain or feel wronged.
Everyone praised Captain Fan highly in private.
For more than ten days, Xia He practiced martial arts in the military training ground.
He had eaten all the pork that was fought back, and gained another attribute point, which he added to another martial art, "Barbarian Bull Strength", to directly improve his proficiency.
[Skill: Bull Power (Great Mastery)]
[Progress: 0/1000]
[Effect: The power of five bulls, instant strength]
"So not all martial arts can evolve into branches?"
Xia He frowned. He had originally expected that this barbaric power could evolve into different branches.
But now it seems that this is not the case. It depends on the upper limit of the technique.
“It’s a bit of a waste.”
But there is no other way, as he does not have any extra martial arts at the moment.
But now that the qi and blood are ready, combined with the strength of the five bulls from this "Barbarian Bull Power", it should be enough for the time being.
"Now that I've finished eating the meat, I have to go look for more meat. And if I want to accumulate attribute points quickly, the quality of the meat must be good!"
“Is there any big monster in the mountain?”
When practicing martial arts, all you need is resources.
…
The weather is getting colder.
On the day of the winter solstice, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
In the cold winter, Xia He took half a day off after a long absence and prepared to relax.
He bought some meat and rice, brought a piece of sugar cake for his nephew Xiaowen, and hurried home.
When he opened the door, a cold wind blew and snowflakes fluttered down, landing on his shoulders and hair.
He gently shook off the snow flakes on his body, making a slight "rustling" sound.
His daughter-in-law Li Huilan came out to greet him, and Xia He couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
"Wife, didn't I tell you to wait for me at home? It's cold now, and I'm afraid you'll get cold."
Li Huilan's cute little nose was red, and she stared at him with her big eyes.
"He'er, I'm wearing a cotton coat. I'm not cold."
