Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 119 Target Marrow Cleansing
"It's good to have confidence, but you must never underestimate the people of the border army."

Feng Boyuan was afraid that the Shanglu would drift away, so he poured cold water on him.

"The hundreds of generals of the border army have all reached the Great Perfection of Tongmai and have rich combat experience. It will not be easy for you to defeat them."

“I don’t underestimate them.”

Shang Lu said that he had some knowledge of the military system of the State of Ba and knew that there was a hundred generals for every hundred men.

Most of the border army's generals are brave and valiant men who are responsible for leading their soldiers to charge into battle. Even if they have the same skills, they are not comparable to the inland captains and generals.

At least in Feng Boyuan's opinion, although Shang Lu's current cultivation has reached the great success of Tongmai, if he really faces the hundreds of generals of the border army, he will most likely be defeated.

So he was a little surprised and didn't understand where Shang Lu's confidence came from.

Feng Boyuan certainly didn't know that although Shang Lu's current cultivation level had reached the great success of opening the meridians, things like opening the acupoints and opening the meridians were not difficult for him at all.

In a few days, he will be able to open up all the remaining eight extraordinary meridians. By then, his cultivation will be promoted to the perfection of opening meridians.

What's more, Shanglu will not stop at opening up the meridians to perfection.

He had long made up his mind to make a single move and rush into the marrow cleansing state.

According to Shanglu, humans have three marrows, namely brain marrow, spinal cord and bone marrow.

These three marrows are originally transformed from the innate essence, and have the effect of nourishing the brain, nourishing the bones, and producing blood.

After birth, the three marrows are affected by the acquired environment and gradually become weak and decay during the process of birth, aging, illness and death.

The weakness and decline of the three marrows will, in turn, lead to exhaustion of essence, blood, and empty brain, thus affecting health and spiritual practice.

For example, Captain Ma, his cultivation level has not improved but regressed, which has a lot to do with the deficiency of his three marrows.

What one needs to do in the Marrow Washing Realm is to "wash the marrow with blood".

Wash away the weak and decayed marrow and restore vitality to the three marrows.

Lay the foundation for drawing qi into the body and stepping into the innate.

If you want to cleanse your marrow, the key is to have strong blood and sufficient energy!

Marrow can produce blood, but conversely, vigorous blood can also be refined into marrow.

Shanglu now not only has abundant blood and energy in his meridians, but also a large amount of undigested blood and energy is stored in the liver statue!
And on the altar of the spleen statue, the bead shaped like a Tai Chi ball has not yet been completely transformed.

Shanglu has enough blood and energy to allow him to start refining, washing and replacing his marrow immediately after his meridians are opened!
In the cultivation experience left behind by the senior who had reached the Qi Refining Realm, the method of marrow refining and the experience he had summarized were also recorded in detail.

With blood and energy and knowing the method, Shanglu has a great chance of success in his attempt to reach the marrow cleansing realm.

As long as Shang Lu enters the marrow cleansing realm, even if it is just the beginning of marrow cleansing, his strength will be greatly improved!

At that time, no matter how brave and skilled in fighting the hundreds of border troops were, Shang Lu would be able to defeat them one by one with his absolute strength!

Therefore, in Shang Lu's opinion, it is a good thing that the border troops emphasize strength, which can save him a lot of effort.

Feng Boyuan saw that he was full of confidence and seemed to have a way to defeat the border troops. Although he was puzzled, he did not ask any more questions.

The two men soon arrived at the Chengfafang, where a plaque of the County Wei Yamen was hung. Next to it was the armory, and a little further inside was the prison.

It seems that placing the county lieutenant's office here was a serious consideration and not a random arrangement.

The county lieutenant's office is not big, but it is enough for office use.

Several clerks who were assigned to Shang Lu to assist him in handling official documents and miscellaneous affairs were sorting various books and materials in the county lieutenant's office. When they saw Shang Lu and Feng Boyuan coming, they hurriedly put down their work and bowed to greet them.

Shang Lu waved his hand and asked them to continue working.

Feng Boyuan did not stay in the county lieutenant's office for long. He chatted with Shang Lu for a few words, urged him to get started as soon as possible, and then left in a hurry.

Feng Boyuan has been so busy these days that he has been trying his best to squeeze out time to support Shang Lu.

After seeing Feng Boyuan off, Shang Lu also went into work mode.

While he was looking through various documents and materials to understand the situation of the county's yamen runners and militiamen, as well as the strange cases that had occurred in recent days, he ordered someone to summon the leader of the third shift and the hundred commanders of the militiamen.

Several squad leaders and hundreds of local militiamen knew that Shang Lu, the new official, would definitely question them, so they did not go far and waited inside the county government office.

So he quickly came to the county lieutenant's office and respectfully saluted Shang Lu. Unlike the hundred generals of the border army, the hundred generals of the Luoshui County militia were only at the entry level of Tongmai, which was similar to the head of the third squad.

The militia in Luoshui County are also different from the professional border troops. They usually have their own livelihoods and only need to go to the training ground for training several times a month. Then they can gather in time when there is a mission.

Captain Niu also came. Now he didn't dare to call Shang Lu "brother" anymore, but respectfully called him "Sir County Lieutenant".

They were all acquaintances, so Shang Lu didn't exchange pleasantries with them and went straight to business.

He first asked about the patrol and defense situation at Yunhua Mountain, and after listening, he shook his head repeatedly: "Not enough, we need to strengthen it."

Hearing this, the leader of the third squad and the hundreds of local militiamen all looked worried.

Shang Lu knew what they were worried about, and immediately said, "I know you are short of manpower, and I just talked to Feng Wuguan, and he allowed you to recruit more people.

But the people you recruit must be from good families. Don't recruit hooligans who are not good at their work and are good at cheating and bullying the people in the neighborhood!
In addition, when you recruit people, you must screen them carefully and avoid recruiting spies.

You should all know that there are many people and demons who are eyeing the secret realm.

Although the witch officer will screen the people you recruit again, if you recruit a spy, you will definitely be reprimanded. If you are not careful, you may even lose your job!"

"Yes."

Several squad leaders and militiamen responded in unison.

As long as they are allowed to recruit people, whether they are from good families or they do a good job of screening, it will be easy to solve.

The only problem is that I don’t know if Luoshui County can recruit so many martial artists?
It seems that I have to hurry up and go to the martial arts schools in the county. If I go too late, there will be no one to recruit.

Shang Lu gave them a few more instructions and asked them to quickly recruit people to strengthen patrols and defenses on Yunhua Mountain.

After the squad leader and the hundred generals left, Shang Lu did not stay in the county lieutenant's office for long.

He planned to go to Yunhua Mountain in person to check out the patrol and defense situation so that he could have a better idea of ​​the situation. When more manpower is added and adjustments are made, he would be able to do so more effectively.

In addition, we plan to patrol the county to see if there is anything else that needs to be prevented.

All the evil spirits and spies who had previously entered Yunhua Mountain were captured by Qiu Haishan and fed to the dragons.

The evil spirits and spies that came later were not clear about the inside story, but they knew that many evil spirits and spies before them had disappeared because they had coveted the secret realm.

They will definitely learn from their lesson and dare not rashly enter Yunhua Mountain.

But he will not leave easily, but lie dormant in Luoshui County, trying every means to spy on the secret realm and get a piece of the pie.

Therefore, we cannot just guard against Yunhua Mountain, we also have to keep an eye on other places in the county.

This was also the consensus reached after Feng Boyuan discussed with him.

By the way, Shang Lu also wants to go back home.

He was promoted from a clerk to a county lieutenant, which was a great joyful event.

My parents don’t know about this happy event yet, so naturally I have to go back and tell them so that they can be happy too.

At the same time, Shang Lu also wanted to experience the feeling of returning home rich and powerful.

Before leaving, Shang Lu suddenly remembered something.

He stopped and asked the clerk in his yamen:

"Have all the pensions for the yamen runners and local militiamen who died in the battle at Yunhua Mountain been distributed?"

“Not yet.”

The clerk's answer made Shang Lu raise his eyebrows.

It's been so many days, and the pension has not been paid out yet. Could it be that the chief clerk withheld it?
He even dares to withhold this money, isn't he afraid of causing a mutiny?
Shang Lu's face darkened instantly, and he went straight to the chief clerk to ask for an explanation.

He did not go to see the county magistrate.

Because he knew that the county magistrate had no control over matters involving money and grain.
