Chapter 223 Electric Martial Arts
"I owe you a huge favor." Looking at these things, Uncle Jiu, who knew he couldn't refuse, shook his head and smiled bitterly.
People without principles or with low moral standards can enjoy all these things with peace of mind, but Uncle Jiu is not like that. Instead, these benefits have become a burden and pressure. For this reason, he teaches Yan Xu the Lightning Thunder Fist with even greater care. He really breaks it down and feeds it to him bit by bit, for fear that something might go wrong. He has never been so attentive even to his two apprentices.
However, Wencai and Qiu Sheng did not mean to be jealous. They were simply the ones who did not know how to appreciate what they had. They were extremely afraid of learning and practicing. Otherwise, with a master like Uncle Jiu who never kept anything to himself, they would not be considered as even half-baked.
In fact, Yan Xu was not much better. So far, he was still in a state of half-understanding, because there were too many Taoist terms and allusions in the exercises, just like foreigners reading idioms, the explanation of four words could take up two pages, making foreigners doubt their lives after reading them.
Fortunately, although Yan Xu's mind was still confused, his body had learned it. It was like using a microwave oven. Not knowing the principle did not prevent him from heating food.
After learning the Lightning Thunder Fist, Yan Xu, whose cells already contained weak electric currents, immediately mastered the ability to control static electricity. He no longer needed to touch the fox demon and make her cry.
For example, it can make crackling noises all over like taking off a sweater in winter, but it also does not generate any static electricity.
"This is useless." All the hair on his body stood up, and there was a crackling sound as electric sparks flashed densely. Yan Xu scratched his crotch and couldn't help but complain.
Although it feels terrible to have static electricity triggered when the weather is dry, it would be nice if it could be avoided. But how could Yan Xu be satisfied if he could achieve this with just one magical skill?
Yan Xu was not satisfied, but Uncle Jiu was pleased, because he knew very well that the most difficult part of Lightning Thunder Fist was getting started. Even the eldest senior brother relied on thunder techniques to get started, not talent.
These are two concepts. To get started with thunder magic, one needs to first master the thunder magic, and then take the path of combining magic and martial arts, so it takes longer to get started.
Yan Xu is a natural talent, as he has the ability to generate electricity. It can be said that one foot has already stepped into the threshold and he only needs some guidance, so he was able to get started in a short period of time.
Uncle Jiu's peaceful state of mind affected Yan Xu, and he also calmed down and continued to practice.
After continuous attempts, Yan Xu has mastered some application skills. For example, he can now release electric current steadily to charge his mobile phone, and he can also absorb a certain amount of electric current and store it in his body, and then release it out in one breath. Although the power is not so-so, it is at least a good start.
However, Yan Xu knew very well that direct discharge was the least efficient way of using the energy because most of the energy was wasted. The most efficient way was to create electric current martial arts.
Magnetic field martial arts would naturally be the best, but the problem is that it is unrealistic. Unless he can reach the level of electric current manipulation of Lightning King Shi Jian, it will be possible to complete magnetic field martial arts.
Unfortunately, no matter how talented he is, it will take years of practice to reach Shi Jian's level. After all, this is cultivation, not adding points.
After setting a goal, Yan Xu began to control the electric current to stimulate his muscles, trying to create an electric current martial art.
This is not easy. Electric current is not so easy to control. It will run everywhere if you are not careful, and the stimulated muscles are just like turning on the vibration mode. Even Kato Ying cannot shake as well as him. His fingers are enough to stir the coffee, let alone make milk foam.
So Yan Xu could only try and learn the Lightning Thunder Fist from Uncle Jiu, hoping to find inspiration from it.
In fact, the Lightning Thunder Fist had already solved this problem, but Yan Xu couldn't do it.
This technique originated from Mount Maoshan. It is said to be a combination of martial arts and law. In fact, it is based on the law and supplemented by martial arts. Therefore, there is no problem of electric current out of control. According to Uncle Jiu, people have three treasures: essence, energy and spirit. His essence is full of energy, but his spirit is too scattered, so he cannot control the electric current.
Therefore, the best solution is to practice Taoism. Once you have developed magical powers and concentrated your spiritual consciousness, the problem will naturally be solved.
Because practicing Taoism is not something that can be accomplished in a short period of time, Yan Xu finally followed the instinctive flow, gave up brain control, and let his body function on its own.
Uncle Jiu did not preach or oppose, but helped him to improve. Teaching students in accordance with their aptitude is also teaching.
Knowing that this matter could not be rushed, Yan Xu returned to the modern world after he had started practicing, intending to relax for a while while also making final preparations for the war in the Japanese world.
The time for the opening of the new world is getting closer and closer, and Yan Xu does not intend to wait any longer. He must complete the main island invasion plan before going to the new world, otherwise the new world will involve a lot of his energy. Therefore, even during his rest period, he did not stop transporting supplies to the Japanese world. The quantity is so large that he is afraid of being checked.
Fortunately, many systems were not perfect at that time, let alone big data, even computer office work was not popular. As long as invoices were issued and taxes were paid on time, there would basically be no problem and no one would check. After all, the scale of Yan Xu's tinkering was only about 10,000 or 20,000 people, which was conspicuous in the town, but would not even make a splash in the city or the province.
Not to mention that with the expansion of modern industry, many problems are no longer problems.
When everything was almost ready, Yan Xu, who had entered the Japanese world, began to order the mobilization of troops and supplies in preparation for the expedition.
Under the operation of the cabinet and the four ministries, Yan Xu's orders were executed with the highest efficiency. A large number of ships gathered at the three major docks of Onimaruyama, Komizu Town, and Otomo Castle to prepare for the expedition.
There are the most ships at Otomo Castle Wharf, but they are a smoke screen because the ships here are all old-fashioned ones with human oars and sails. Apart from their disadvantages, there are really no advantages to be found. They also transport farmers and foot soldiers. They seem to be powerful, but in fact they are just for show.
The ships of Omizu Town are much more practical. They are mainly cargo ships responsible for the transportation of materials. However, due to their slow speed, they are also equipped with a number of small and flexible Kohaya ships as auxiliary ships, but they only play a supporting role.
The real main force of the war this time is the new fleet built by the Onimaruyama Shipyard with huge efforts and resources.
Although it was a new fleet, Yan Xu did not make it too complicated. He simply divided the ships into three categories: large battleships, medium-sized frigates, and small destroyers.
The length of large battleships is over fifty meters, and their counterpart is the Atakubune, but unlike the Japanese Atakubune, it does not have as many buildings piled on the upper deck. It is almost like putting a wooden fort on the sea.
To be honest, every time Yan Xu saw the bathtub-like Ataka ship, he was worried that it would capsize.
However, the newly built large battleships did not fully adopt the Western sailing battleship structure.
Western sailing ships are more suitable for ocean voyages, but Japan is just a small world and does not need to consider ocean voyages at all, so they combined the advantages of both and built a slightly short steam sailing ship.
