After sleeping in the inn for a night, the two of them got up at dawn the next day. Qiao Feng picked up the map and left the inn with Exemplary Lee to lead the horses.
At this moment, Li Shishi saw twenty people sitting and lying at the entrance of the inn. They were all yellow and skinny, and a few of them were so hungry that they were skin and bones.
"Where did you guys come from? Why are you all so hungry?”Li Shishi asked.
"We are disciples of Beggar's Sect. We were originally farmers from Beijing, but after Beijing was conquered by the Liao Dynasty, we became refugees and begged everywhere for a living. When we came to Xiongzhou City, we heard that Beggar's Sect was good and supported the suffering people, so we joined Beggar's Sect.”One of them said weakly.
"It's okay. I'll help you!”Li Shishi said and walked towards the inn. Qiao Feng followed.
It turned out that Li Shishi was going to the bank. She took out 200 taels of silver and exchanged it for 20 ingots of silver.
"What are you doing?" Qiao Feng asked.
"Give alms to these Beggar's Sect disciples. How pitiful are they if they don't have enough to eat!”Li Shishi said.
"Yes, but this can only save 20 people. There are still more people waiting for us to save. The main thing is to fight against the Liao Dynasty. Only by recovering the lost land can these people live a good life!”Qiao Feng helped Li Shishi carry most of the money and said.
Then, they walked out of the money house and distributed the silver to the twenty Beggar's Sect disciples at the entrance of the inn. Each of them had ten taels of silver.
At this moment, Qiao Feng led Li Shishi to the backyard of the inn to get on the horse. The two of them got on the horse and galloped towards the Imperial Army camp according to the direction marked on the map.
When they arrived at the Imperial Army barracks, the guards led them to the General's Manor and found the Imperial Army leader, Li Huanming.
"Lord Li, I'm Qiao Feng, the leader of Beggar's Sect. I'm here to look for you mainly to fight against the Liao Dynasty together. I heard that the Liao Dynasty plans to send 50,000 elite soldiers to attack Xiongzhou City in a month and a half.”Qiao Feng said.
"Hehe, we are also stepping up our preparations to defeat the enemy! "It's just that our Imperial Army is gathered from all over the country, and the teams are uneven. I want to train them well, but the current head instructor is old. We lack a head instructor now!”Li Huanming said.
"This Qiao does know a bit of martial arts. If you don't mind, this Qiao is willing to temporarily be the head instructor.”Qiao Feng said.
"What do you know? You can't be the chief instructor just because you want to. You have to have strong martial arts skills. You said you're the leader of Beggar's Sect, so you have to know some martial arts.”Li Huanming questioned.
"I know the Dog Beating Stick Technique and the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.”Qiao Feng replied.
"Then let's go out. Show me what you've got!”Li Huanming said.
With that said, they walked out of the General's Estate. Qiao Feng first used the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and struck a tree in front of the General's Estate that was about ten feet tall and had a thick mouth, breaking it in half.
"En, not bad. In any case, there is only one and a half months before the Liao Dynasty comes to attack Xiongzhou City. You can be the temporary chief instructor for now. I will take a look at the soldiers for one and a half months. If it is possible, I will promote you to the official chief instructor and your monthly salary will be one thousand taels of silver.”
"Alright, when do I take over?”Qiao Feng asked.
"Tomorrow. As the Sect Master of Beggar's Sect, you should have some matters to deal with. Go back and deal with them today. Tomorrow, come and teach the Imperial Army martial arts. I'll arrange a room for you to stay in.”Li Huanming said to Qiao Feng.
Then, Qiao Feng led Li Shishi out of the Imperial Army camp and came to Beggar's Sect's Black Tortoise Sect.
"I've contacted Governor Wang Yunzhi and Imperial Army Leader Li Huanming in the past two days. Li Huanming asked me to be the temporary head instructor and take up the post tomorrow.”Qiao Feng asked Ma Tenghua.
"Sigh, the main thing is to replenish some soldiers and horses. Originally, Beggar's Sect had more than 5,000 people who could fight, but more than 2,000 people died in the previous battle. There are still about 3,000 people left. Moreover, we don't have much silver left, so we need to replenish it.”Ma Tenghua reported.
" See if you can survive this war with the Liao Dynasty. The key is the Imperial Army. You know that I want to lead them to hold off the 50,000 soldiers of the Liao Dynasty. After this war, I'll go to the Beggar's Sect's headquarters and the relatively wealthy Azure Dragon Tribe to see if I can get some silver and mobilize some soldiers to support Xiongzhou.”Qiao Feng said to Ma Tenghua.
"We can only do this. We will fight the Liao soldiers in a month and a half. Let's get through it first. I hope that the leader can get more silver and men to support our Black Tortoise Tribe!”Ma Tenghua said.
"Yes, I will try my best to coordinate and support your Black Turtle Tribe!”Qiao Feng said.
Then, Qiao Feng brought Exemplary Lee back to the inn.
After making tea, Teacher Li said to Qiao Feng,"Today is the first day of June. Brother Qiao, let's do it!”
"Hehe, I've been quite busy these two days. I've forgotten about this!”Qiao Feng said with a smile.
Li Shishi took out a pill from the wooden bucket and ate it. Then, the two of them started to do it.
"Brother Qiao, can you do that a few more times today?”Li Shishi said affectionately.
"Okay, I haven't done that for a few days. How about three times today?”Qiao Feng said.
"Okay, Shishi likes Brother Qiao.”Teacher Li said gently.
The two of them did it for more than two hours before lying on the bed.
"This time, in the battle with the Liao army, is the chance of victory high?”Li Shishi asked.
"I'm not sure either. Time is still a bit too short. According to what they said, the Imperial Army is too weak. I'm afraid that this month and a half of training will have very little effect!”Qiao Feng sighed.
"Sigh, I can only try my best. I hope I can win when the time comes!”Li Shishi said.
"Hopefully. What should we do now?”Qiao Feng asked.
"That can't be used for cultivation, but it can be used for martial arts, right?”Li Shishi asked.
"Sure." Qiao Feng replied.
"Then Big Brother Qiao, teach me a few more moves!”Li Shishi said.
"Alright, I'll teach you a few more moves of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.”Qiao Feng said.
Then, the two of them got up and Qiao Feng taught Li Shishi the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.
This was the fourth, fifth, and sixth move of the technique, Hidden Dragon, Shocking Hundred Miles, or Leap in the Abyss. In about an hour, Li Shishi had learned these three moves. Qiao Feng asked Li Shishi to perform the first six moves together.
"Hmm, your comprehension is quite high, and your movements are quite good. However, this Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms mainly depends on the cultivation of internal energy. I'll teach you some internal energy mental cultivation methods.”Qiao Feng said.
Then, he taught her some inner energy techniques. She closed her eyes and began to cultivate according to Qiao Feng's instructions.
After an hour, Exemplary Lee finished her cultivation and was sweating profusely.
Ms. Lee wiped her sweat with a towel. The two of them held hands and did it again.
They did it for another two hours. It was already very late.
"Go to sleep. We have to get up early to go to the military camp tomorrow!”Qiao Feng said.
"Didn't Big Brother Qiao say that he wanted to do it three times?”Li Shishi said coquettishly.
"Next time. We still have something to do tomorrow, so let's sleep early.”Qiao Feng blew out the oil lamp.
