Chapter 45 045 [Pretending to be God]

“…Who would have thought that when I was on the verge of death, a white-haired immortal suddenly appeared in my dream and placed an elixir in my mouth.

The immortal said that this pill has the power to bring the dead back to life, and so I really came back to life."

As he spoke, Chen Sheng ripped open the clothes on his chest, revealing a hideous wound where the flesh had grown back mostly, but there was still a small hole.

"The immortal also said that the elixir contains the strength of nine oxen and two tigers, so I really have such strength."

Chen Sheng raised his foot and stomped hard. With a "crack", a big crack appeared on the courtyard wall under his feet. Ten layers of blue bricks were cracked by his foot.

This caused several exclamations from the women and children who were hiding in the house and watching.

Although the rural folks were not very knowledgeable, they knew that when the bricks were bonded together with cement, they would become one piece. When demolishing a wall, even if you swung a hammer from the side, it would take a lot of force to knock off a piece.

This guy was a skinny farmer yesterday, but today he can actually break a ten-layer brick wall with one foot. Did he really take some magic pill?

"The immortals also said that the elixir contains the secrets of controlling lightning and thunder, and the secrets of refining pills and drawing talismans.

Although I, Zhang Shou, cannot use such profound magic now, I used the ability given by the immortal to kill all the Wuhuan soldiers and avenge the deaths of my tribesmen.

Our Zhangjiabao has suffered such a great disaster today, and the entire clan has been wiped out. In the future, we must be more united and work together to stand firm.

From now on, I, Zhang Shou, will be here to ensure that you are safe and have enough food and clothing.

I will definitely not enjoy this divine fate alone."

Chen Sheng had a purpose for acting so mysteriously here.

Zhangjiabao, as the name suggests, is the place where the Zhang clan lives.

Previously, the Wuhuan people plundered and killed all the descendants of the fort owner, and now there is no one in charge of the fort.

As an ordinary farmer in the fort, Zhang Shou was a distant relative of the fort owner's family within five generations. Although he had no blood advantage, he had no popularity in the past.

But relying on today's life-saving grace and the military strength shown, as long as we make some efforts, we can successfully capture Zhangjiabao.

With the territory and manpower, it will be much easier to develop in the future.

As for pretending to have help from ghosts and gods, one reason is that the villagers are ignorant, and the story of help from gods is more in line with their values; the other reason is for future career awakening.

As long as someone believes this story, Chen Sheng's future awakening of Taoist professions will become much easier.

Gululu——

The adjutant's head was thrown into the yard.

Chen Sheng also jumped down, lifted the wooden plug and opened the gate.

"My fellow tribesmen, the fort is now safe. You can go and see that the streets are full of dead Wuhuan soldiers.

I've been frightened today. You should go back first and collect the bodies of your family members."

Women and children were skeptical about what Chen Sheng said.

The reason for this is the force he just displayed.

The reason for their disbelief was that there were simply too many Wuhuan people invading the fort, and the women and children instinctively felt that it was unrealistic for one person to kill an entire cavalry unit.

But the fact that the main courtyard had been bustling for so long without any Wuhuan coming to investigate still gave them courage. Some brave men peeked out onto the main street to investigate, and when they found that all the Wuhuan were indeed dead, they immediately ran back and kowtowed to Chen Sheng.

He thanked me profusely at first, but then he started crying.

Infected by the emotion, the women and children immediately burst into tears and cried for half an hour before they supported each other and left.

Compared to shedding tears, they obviously had more important things to do as most of their relatives had died at the hands of the Wuhuan people.

Chen Sheng also left the main courtyard and took Zhang Gui and Zhang Dong to live in the courtyard closest to the gate of the fort.

He did not forget that a group of cavalry had left the fort before, and these people could return at any time.

Living at the gate makes it more convenient for him to guard the door.

In the following days, Chen Sheng organized people to repair and raise the walls of the fortress, and sealed the original gate with blue bricks to prevent the return of the Wuhuan people.

On the one hand, he also performed some common Taoist duties such as prescribing medicine, chanting scriptures, comforting the living, and saving the souls of the dead, in order to awaken Taoist-related professions on the panel.

After more than ten days, the Wuhuan people did not wait for him, so he, who had the talent of two oxen and one tiger, started to practice "Hand Combat Martial Arts Classic" again, and he cultivated a trace of weak qi and blood again.

But after several attempts, Chen Sheng found that the idea of ​​re-entering the profession of "Martial Apprentice" in this world seemed impossible.

Perhaps due to the different times, concepts such as martial arts apprentices, martial arts masters, and martial arts grandmasters do not exist in the current Yanhan Dynasty society.

No matter whether they were from the wealthy families of Yan and Han, the common people, or those from other races, in their perception, becoming soldiers and generals fighting on the battlefield was the ultimate destination for all those who practiced martial arts.

Huben is a nickname for elite soldiers. The reason why Chen Sheng awakened the [Hu Ben] profession when he killed the Wuhuan people was based on this kind of group cognition.

Just like in the Ming Dynasty world, the reason why Chen Sheng was able to practice martial arts alone and still work as a "martial artist" was entirely because his two younger brothers recognized his martial arts based on the values ​​​​formed in the era they lived in.

Obtaining a profession on the panel also requires certain external conditions. What kind of soil a world has will determine what kind of profession it can nurture.

Fortunately, after Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty restored the country, people became superstitious about prophecies and divinations, and liked magic and sorcery from immortals. Taoism also evolved from a doctrine into a real religion under the influence of Buddhism. Otherwise, Chen Sheng would not have had the confidence to awaken the Taoist profession in the future.

If we speculate based on the original idea of ​​the warrior's career change, the future career advancement path of the Huben should be related to the military branch or military position.

What made Chen Sheng feel a little regretful was that the talents and skills of the Hu Ben profession were all biased towards combat rather than training.

Without the talent support of the [Martial Apprentice] profession, relying solely on the training experience of the previous life, the speed of martial arts training in this life will be slower.

But it doesn't matter if it's slower. With the time flow rate ratio of 1:150 between Daxia and Yanhan, Chen Sheng has plenty of time to develop slowly in this world.

Time flies and several days have passed.

One day, Chen Sheng was practicing martial arts in the yard with his upper body naked, braving the cold wind.

He was seen holding a two-foot-thick wooden stake in his hands, his eyes tightly closed, controlling his qi and blood, combining his mind and intention, intention and qi, qi and strength, and concentrating all his body's strength between his arms.

The whole person suddenly moved from stillness to movement, and rubbed his arms on the wooden stake. The outermost layer of dry bark on the stake suddenly cracked and scattered.

Afterwards, Chen Sheng continued to use the muscles of his arms to rub the dry tree trunk in his arms back and forth, and clumps of light yellow wood fibers were stirred down from the old elm tree that had been dried in the shade for many years.

"The secrets of dragon-catching hand-to-hand combat are hidden, and the true meaning is revealed through thousands of kneadings and pinchings. Practice until you are able to fall eighteen times when your clothes touch you, and a mere touch of your flesh is a disaster."
