Chapter 48: Ice Soul Silver Needle
Tea shop at the foot of Penglai Mountain.
The players just now didn't leave. They seemed to be chatting casually, but they were actually paying attention to the movements on the mountain path.
With a loud crash.
As soon as Qin Mo appeared at the end of the mountain path, ten Youyun Iron Cavalrymen reacted first. They quickly gathered and lined up neatly outside the teahouse with neat military appearance.
Only then did the player notice Qin Mo.
"If we go down the mountain so soon, we will probably be turned away." He breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, they saw Zhao Yun following behind Qin Mo...
…How embarrassing…
Qin Mo simply ignored everyone and quickly disappeared at the end of the official road under the protection of the Youyun Iron Cavalry.
…
As the number one internet celebrity in the Three Kingdoms and a top-tier traffic star, the news that Zhao Yun was conquered by Qin Mo spread quickly among the player circle like wings.
Du Shihao and other "lords" were drooling with envy.
Ordinary players, however, didn’t feel anything. They were even happy that Zhao Yun came out of seclusion earlier. What did it matter who he served under?
Just because of Qin Mo's dark history of killing Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, some players joked that Qin Mo was going to take over Liu Bei's legacy and become the king of Shu Han's legacy.
As a result, Liaodong once again became a check-in destination for star-chasers.
…
Qin Mo didn't care about these things. Three days later, he returned to the Jiedushi Mansion in Xiangping County.
The next day , he announced the appointment and dismissal of new generals of the Liaodong Army.
Taishi Ci, the former Central Guard General, was transferred to be the General of the Front Army, responsible for forming a 5,000-strong front army.
Zhao Yun was appointed as the Central Guard General.
Taishi Ci and Zhao Yun were both powerful generals of the time. In comparison, Taishi Ci's ability to lead troops and fight was even better than Zhao Yun's, so he was responsible for commanding the vanguard.
Zhao Yun, who does not have much experience in major battles, is more suitable for commanding the Youyun Cavalry.
The 5,000-man vanguard troops will be drawn from the local garrisons in the five counties of Liaoxi, Changli, Xuantu, Liaodong and Lelang, and then reorganized with the other three armies to ensure that the overall combat effectiveness is not reduced.
As for Daifang County, Qin Mo let Zhou Cang deal with it.
Speaking of Zhou Cang, after he became the prefect of Daifang County, his mind became active. Together with Gongsun Du, the prefect of Lelang County, he presented twelve hundred-year-old ginsengs as a gift.
They are all top-grade Korean ginseng.
Qin Mo not only accepted it with a smile, but also shamelessly gave orders to the two governors, asking the two counties to immediately organize experienced ginseng collectors to go into the mountains and collect century-old ginseng specifically for him.
Ginseng is a treasure.
Not to mention how much of a high price this nearly "endangered" creature could be sold for in reality; even for cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, ginseng is a great tonic.
It can greatly replenish qi and blood.
Even in the Three Kingdoms subcontinent, there are only a limited number of 100-year-old ginsengs. Once dug, they are gone. Qin Mo has the advantage of time and place, so there is no reason for other players to get there first.
He also has a big appetite and is planning to monopolize century-old ginseng.
In addition to Korean ginseng, Qin Mo also thought of a place where ginseng is produced in abundance - Changbai Mountain. Unfortunately, it is also under the rule of Goguryeo at this time.
Qin Mo originally intended to fight against Goguryeo, and now he has even more reason.
…
Time quickly entered October.
Taishi Ci's vanguard troops have been formed and are currently stationed in Lelang County.
Thanks to the efforts of Deng Mao and the two county magistrates, order has basically been restored in the three newly pacified counties, and they are slowly recovering according to the previous development model of the three Liaodong counties.
On the outskirts of Xiangping County, there is the Youyun Cavalry Camp.
On the central military training ground, two brave generals, each riding a white horse, were fighting fiercely with spears.
But it was Qin Mo and Zhao Yun.
Qin Mo rode a white dragon horse, held a dragon spear, and used the White Bird Facing the Phoenix spear technique; Zhao Yun also rode a white horse, held a bright silver spear, but used the Seven-Probe Coiled Snake Spear.
The wild horses neighed and the spears flew.
But the bright silver spear in Zhao Yun's hand shook violently, and one turned into seven, coordinating with each other, like seven white snakes coiled together, breathing out murderous aura, and as powerful as a rainbow.
Qin Mo was overwhelmed and defeated due to a mistake.
"Give up, give up." Qin Mo put away the gun with a smile.
The Bainiaochaofeng spear technique is indeed exquisite. Even with Zhao Yun, a first-class sparring partner, and Qin Mo's own comprehension, he has only just begun to understand the basics.
It’s not that easy to practice.
Zhao Yun put away his gun and said in admiration: "The commander has made rapid progress."
This is by no means flattery.
It took Zhao Yun more than a year to learn the White Bird Facing the Phoenix spear technique, but Qin Mo only practiced it for more than a month.
He can only be described as a genius.
But Qin Mo still took the easy way out. He had a foundation in "Basic Gunmanship" and experience in swordsmanship. In addition, he had strong soul power and physical fitness, so he could naturally learn anything quickly.
"Let's stop here today. You go and deal with the strangers outside the camp." Qin Mo got off the horse, put away the Dragon Spear, and handed the White Dragon Horse to his personal guards.
Ever since Zhao Yun took charge of the Youyun Iron Cavalry, there have been enthusiastic fans gathering outside the military camp every day, hoping to catch a glimpse of Zhao Yun, including many little female fans.
In order to connect with the players, Qin Mo naturally wanted to satisfy everyone's wishes and specifically instructed Zhao Yun to hold a "fan meeting" every week.
Zhao Yun was also named the image ambassador of Liaodong, in the name of enhancing Liaodong's soft power.
Zhao Yun smiled bitterly and said, "General, can I not go?" When he thought of those overly enthusiastic foreigners, he would rather go into battle and kill the enemies. They were really too difficult to deal with.
“No way!”
Qin Mo was ruthless. He waved his hand and walked away.
“…”
Zhao Yun asked the heavens speechlessly, always feeling that a pearl was thrown into the dark.
…
Just when Zhao Yun was in dire straits, Qin Mo had already returned to the Jiedushi Mansion.
backyard.
In the past two months, Qin Mo specially set up a quiet room, not for any other reason but to practice magic.
As a former Tribulation Crossing master, he had naturally already mastered the basic spells by heart. It was not difficult to learn them, but the difficult part was to use them skillfully again.
After all, I have changed my body.
Qin Mo, who is in the early stage of Qi Refining
This is also why cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage like to use talismans in battle.
Talismans are equivalent to storing magic power in advance in the form of arrays. When using them, you only need to stimulate them with your soul to exert the same power as basic spells.
It is indeed a must-have item for monks when they go out.
The problem is that there is no industry for talisman paper, talisman pen, or talisman ink in the Three Kingdoms subcontinent at present, and Qin Mo is unwilling to follow Zhang Jiao's example and tinker with these things on his own.
So it was delayed.
Besides, since he decided to take the path of dual cultivation of magic and body, he didn't like to fight with talismans. Compared with talismans, physical cultivators prefer to attach spells to weapons, and the killing effect is equally amazing.
Just like Qin Mo is now.
The Black Snake Sword shook, a red light flashed, and a ball of flame appeared, turning the Black Snake Sword into a flaming sword that could last for ten breaths.
This is fire magic.
Because of his limited magic power, Qin Mo currently only focuses on practicing five spells, including fire magic, spirit armor magic, sky eye magic, wind magic and ice magic.
Basically, they are all within the five elements of magic.
Spirit Armor Technique is a protective spell. Although it cannot block physical attacks, it can resist spell attacks. Therefore, it is listed as one of the basic spells that must be practiced by cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage.
The Sky Eye Technique is an auxiliary spell that can be used to detect the cultivation level of others.
Gale Technique is a low-level wind spell and is also a prerequisite for learning Wind Escape Technique. By using it, the movement speed can be increased to a certain extent.
The final ice spell, like the fire spell, is known as one of the most lethal offensive spells.
After a cast of fire magic, Qin Mo's magic power was drained. Without spirit stones, he could only meditate to restore his magic power, which was a pain in the ass.
When it comes to the passion for fighting, it has to be the physical cultivators.
After recovering his magic power, Qin Mo clenched his right hand, and a small ball of ice appeared in his palm. Under the control of soul power, it slowly compressed into an ice soul silver needle as thin as a hair.
A faint light flickered.
Just like Qin Mo's cold eyes...
