Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 431 Be famous through the ages, this is the originator of Taoism

Li Yan was sitting on the bow of the boat with a calm expression, fishing.

There was a fish basket beside him, and there were already many fish still jumping in it, and the fishing rod in his hand soon couldn't bear the strength and became bent.

The next moment, the fishing line swished out of the water, and another big fish twisted its body and was hooked onto the boat.

But the moment Li Yan took off the fish and put it in the basket, a shocked old man's voice came from behind: "Yuan Fang, how did you do it?"

Li Yan stood up and saluted: "Old General Liu."

Liu Rengui stared wide-eyed, seeing that after the fish's mouth broke free, the bottom of the fishing line was actually empty, with no hook at all.

He came to the front, looked at the fishing line carefully, picked up the fish he just caught, and took out the fish's mouth: "This fish won't swallow the hook and bait together, right?"

Li Yan laughed: "Then it should have gone directly under the water. I am just some small means of martial arts, which made the old general laugh."

Liu Rengui looked like an old man who also practiced martial arts, so don't lie to me, he stroked his beard and smiled and said, "This method is quite interesting, can Yuan Fang give me some pointers?"

Li Yan nodded: "The old general is strong and healthy, so he can cultivate his true qi, and it's good to use it as a means of prolonging his life."

He briefly explained the principle of zhenqi, and passed to Liu Rengui a basic zhenqi, which circulated in the limbs and bones.

During these days, while teaching Wan'er Qianqiu Jue, he himself is also constantly checking for omissions and filling in gaps, bringing forth new ideas from the old, and summing up a set of basic inner strength cultivation methods.

Before Li Yan left Luoyang, he was taught by people he knew well, but most of them couldn't understand it, which shows that the basic internal strength is not basic enough, it is still in its infancy, and needs to be improved.

And Liu Rengui is worthy of being one of the four famous generals. He circulated Zhou Tian in his body according to the instructions, but he felt something: "Your strength is strange. I used to practice martial arts. I felt a little discomfort, and the pain became more and more severe as I got older. The more obvious it is, only practicing this method is particularly comfortable..."

Li Yandao: "That's because the old general was injured before, and he would feel pain when he was running his strength, but his true energy is more gentle. I have also absorbed a lot of the characteristics of bright energy, which is very suitable for healing old injuries and prolonging life."

Liu Rengui showed a look of shock: "This is an amazing secret. The old man was just a joke just now. How can you pass it on easily? It is absolutely impossible!"

He wasn't pretending to refuse, but really didn't want to practice anymore.

On the one hand, it is unavoidable family opinion, on the other hand, I feel that it is not such a big favor.

Li Yan said solemnly: "Of course, my unique and self-created exercises will not be spread to the outside world at will. That would be a waste of hard work and won't be respected, but I hope that more people can obtain the basic method of cultivating true qi. Let the martial arts practitioners in the world have another choice."

Liu Rengui was stunned: "Is the zhenqi you mentioned just now fundamentally different from strength?"

Li Yan nodded: "Yes, it comes from the energy of the human body, just like strength, but it is a different kind of strength."

Liu Rengui was no longer shocked, but moved: "You...how did you think of this?"

Li Yan explained: "Strength is innate. After the ancestors created various strength methods, there is no need to study other strengths. True Qi needs to be cultivated. Its starting point is lower than that of strength, but It has many unique advantages, and can complement each other with the strength method, so I practice at the same time, integrate into one body, and create my own unique method."

Liu Rengui said sincerely: "If this method is successful, Yuan Fang will be famous for thousands of years, and this is the originator of Taoism!"

Li Yan said with a smile: "The old general needs to help me even more, to train my true qi well, so that I can be more inspired, so that I can succeed!"

Liu Rengui laughed loudly: "Yuan Fang is really good at talking, so the old man has the cheek to imitate your true energy, but this favor must be repaid, and it cannot be repaid with a single word."

Li Yan began to teach patiently, referring to the differences from Wan'er's practice.

Wan'er is young, her body is not yet fully developed, and she has a foundation of consciousness-only energy. It can be said that she is the best at painting paper, and she practiced Qianqiu Jue very smoothly.

After all, Liu Rengui is old, his qi and blood are prematurely aging, and he is very reluctant to practice basic internal strength. After all, true qi requires far less physical fitness than strength, but it is not that he does not pay attention to his body. It is impossible to achieve much. Fortunately, after the adjustment of true qi, the old wounds can be cleared, and after half a month, his complexion has become better.

"It has become a health care product for the elderly. I don't know if it can replace the pill in the future..."

Li Yan thought about the case of Bulaomeng, and wanted to improve the atmosphere of pills, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it was not going to work.

Not to mention that true qi is not something everyone can practice after all, and those wealthy nobles will also develop a style of painting while taking pills and practicing true qi.

In fact, the officers and men on board already felt strange. They saw General Liu and Li Geling sitting on the bow of the boat, looking at the open sea, practicing cross-legged, but they didn't know what they were practicing.

In the days of martial arts, time always passed quickly. Seeing that he was about to reach the peninsula, Li Yan looked to the east: "Was the country there? Since the first battle at Baijiangkou, the people of the Japanese country are afraid of Liu Gong to the extreme. "

Liu Rengui didn't take it seriously: "Then those wild people in the wilderness, what's the use of fearing me? Besides, the battle at Baijiangkou was a complete victory because our Tang ships were strong and strong. It's self-defeating."

At least Silla is still a bad people, and the Japanese are just wild people. Li Yan laughed: "Grand Liu is modest, not all relying on ships and elite soldiers. If it weren't for Duke Liu's strategizing, Baekje has already returned to the country, and the Japanese would be even more arrogant... ...By the way, can my current Tang Dynasty ship go to Dongying Island?"

After Liu Rengui thought for a while, he shook his head and said: "Small ships are fine, but large-scale fleet casualties will increase, and it is even more difficult to guarantee the supply."

Li Yan nodded slightly, not surprised.

In fact, the shipbuilding technology in the Tang Dynasty was relatively good, and the shipbuilding industry was also very prosperous. The most important thing is that in the materials circulated in the Tang Dynasty, written records with the nature of early navigation guides appeared, explaining the relevant voyage dates, routes, The geography, safe waterways, anchorage shelters, dangerous objects that obstruct navigation, etc., have been explained in more detail.

It may not be comprehensive, but the embryonic form appeared. Jia Dan, a geographer who was also a descendant of Jia Xu in history, recorded the route of "Dengzhou Sea to Koryo Bohai Road". Later, Tang people also set off from Wanghai Town, Mingzhou , arrived safely in Wa country in three days with the wind.

This is in stark contrast to Japan's protracted sending of Tang envoys and frequent shipwrecks. After all, the gap in national strength is too great.

However, although Datang's ship level is far stronger than that of Japan, it still does not have the ability to manufacture a large number of ocean-going ships and land on Dongying Island. Due to the limitation of geographical knowledge, it is difficult to understand the situation there.

In this regard, Li Yan can't say that Liangzhou merchants and Jiangnan merchants understand, then the story is too much, and Wu Chengsi will not believe it.

Seeing him pondering, Liu Rengui felt a little strange: "Yuan Fang, why do you care about this? Could it be that you still want to destroy the Japanese kingdom?"

Li Yandao: "I've thought about it, but I know it's not realistic..."

Liu Rengui laughed and said, "Even if it can be destroyed, what's the use?"

Li Yandao: "That's right, my Great Tang set up four towns in Anxi to frighten the countries in the Western Regions and ensure the smooth flow of trade routes. This Japanese country is a barren land, isolated overseas, and its attitude is very obedient. There is no reason to destroy it."

"It's mainly because of the geographical location. If we want to develop, we must fight it out. After the Tang Dynasty took over the Liaodong Peninsula, the Japanese will definitely focus on China, and conflicts will break out sooner or later."

"It's a pity that the island cannot be controlled all the time. Unless the Central Plains Dynasty can maintain its strongest strength, it will definitely find an opportunity to leave, and eventually an independent new regime will evolve."

Liu Rengui heard that his intentions were still unfinished, and he became interested: "In Yuanfang's opinion, how to deal with that kind of wild country that is lonely overseas?"

Li Yandao: "It's actually not difficult. The population share given to the Japanese immigrants every year is that they can lead thousands of ships to attack in the Battle of Baijiangkou. On the premise of disregarding the casualties on the way, the Japanese have at least a chance to reach the Liaodong Peninsula. Just give them a way to go up.”

Thinking of the short and ugly appearance of the Japanese, Liu Rengui was a little disgusted: "What do you want those rough and lowly people to do? There are many Hu people around my Tang Dynasty. Those people are strong and can work better..."

Li Yandao: "It's better to be blocked than to be sparse. The biggest contradiction in this world is not giving a chance at all."

"Now the culture of the Japanese people is very backward. Let them study crazily in Baekje, and give them the opportunity to immigrate to Tang Dynasty. It is almost impossible for those who come to go back."

"This is also why the prince of Baekje lived in Luoyang before, and he didn't want to return to his homeland. He reminded me that the country of Wa and Baekje are closely related. We can use the prince of Baekje as an example to select some talents that my Tang Dynasty needs."

"It's just that if the Wa Kingdom voluntarily asks for Jifu Prefecture, it must not be satisfied. It is necessary to form two clearly differentiated classes in order to better allow talents to flow in. To let the Wa Kingdom people form a concept, emigrating to the Tang Dynasty is the way to stand out."

Liu Rengui was a little surprised, how this young man was so familiar with controlling alien races, and after thinking about it, he couldn't help admiring him: "It's no wonder that the late emperor entrusted Yuan Fang with a great talent as a prime minister!"

Li Yan said with a smile: "Gong Liu praised it absurdly. These are still preliminary ideas. Many details need to be deliberated. It is not so easy to complete. What's more, the premise of everything is to win Silla!"

Liu Rengui was full of energy and full of confidence: "With the support of the inner guards, every step of the way, if the old man can't win this mere Silla, he will be speechless to face His Majesty and the courtiers."

However, half a day later, when the fleet had just arrived at Xiongjin Wharf, Liu Rengui's face darkened, and he found that there were few people who came to greet him.

Guo Yuanzhen, the leader, bowed his hands with three parts of self-blame and seven parts of hatred: "Old General Liu, Li Geling, I am asking you to uphold justice!"
