On the fourth day, Ji Wuchen went to the bamboo forest to the south of Zhu Lane. From afar, he saw Zhao Zheng dancing his sword in the bamboo forest. Although he was still using the basic sword techniques such as picking, thrusting, cutting, and chopping, he was no longer as stiff and weak as he was on the first day. Combined with the basic sword movements, he actually looked more like it, and his control of strength was just right.
It had to be said that Zhao Zheng was definitely an excellent person with wisdom on the path of martial arts. If he focused on martial arts, although he might not be able to reach the Celestial Realm in the long run, it was probably only a matter of time before he became a grandmaster.
To Ji Wuchen's surprise, there was another boy sitting on a bluestone near him. Judging from his figure and appearance, he was much younger than Zhao Zheng, but his eyebrows were very similar.
This made him think of another famous figure-Chang 'an Jun Chengjiao.
According to historical records, Cheng Jiao's birth was unknown. He might have been born in the State of Zhao as the son of Lady Zhao, or he might have been born in the State of Qin as the son of the Princess of Han who had married into the State of Qin. He was young and intelligent, with a sharp mind. At a young age, his intelligence was outstanding, and the King of Qin liked him very much. He was conferred the title of Lord of Chang 'an early on.
If this young man was Cheng Jiao, then he must be Lady Zhao's son. He had once heard from Zhao Zheng that one of the purposes of practicing martial arts was to protect his younger brother.
"Teacher!"
While his thoughts were running wild, he had already arrived at the bamboo forest. He only regained his senses when he heard Zhao Zheng's shout. Ji Wuchen smiled and nodded." You've worked hard to practice the basic sword technique so smoothly in three days.”
"I don't dare to slack off on Teacher's orders.”
Ji Wuchen nodded and grabbed Zhao Zheng's arm. He injected a tiny stream of Genuine Qi into Zhao Zheng's body. When he felt the indistinct Genuine Qi in Zhao Zheng's body, he smiled." Very good. It seems that you have mastered the method of luck. If you practice more, you will definitely improve."”
"Disciple will follow Teacher's teachings!"
As soon as Zhao Zheng finished speaking, he pointed at the boy who stood up a little cautiously and said,"Teacher, this is my younger brother, Cheng Jiao. He's nine years old this year, two years younger than me.”
When Cheng Jiao heard Zhao Zheng's words, she put her hands together and bowed like a little adult."Cheng Jiao greets Teacher."
"You and I have only just met. Why are you calling me teacher?" Ji Wuchen smiled.”
Cheng Jiao replied," As the saying goes, an elder is a teacher. Since the teacher is my brother's teacher, he is an elder. Since he is an elder, he must also be my teacher.”
Ji Wuchen praised in his heart. Compared to Zhao Zheng's calmness and introspection, Cheng Jiao's intelligence and wisdom were more likable. However, if he was to be a king, Zhao Zheng was more suitable.
"You're worth teaching. Not bad."
"Thank you for your praise, teacher."
"Teacher, are you willing to return to the State of Qin with me?”
Ji Wuchen was about to sit down on the bluestone when he heard Zhao Zheng's question. He was stunned." What's going on?"”
"Teacher also knows that the reason why I was bullied by the Zhao people was because I was the son of a hostage of the Qin country. Now that my father has ascended the throne of the Qin country, he has sent someone to pick me up.”
Ji Wuchen didn't nod immediately. Instead, he asked,""Will the State of Zhao let them pass?"
Zhao Zheng shook his head," I don't know. The person who came to pick me up this time is General Wang Jian. He is quite intelligent and has brought a lot of money and jewelry. The nobles of Zhao will take care of him, so it shouldn't be a problem.”
Ji Wuchen nodded." Because you offended the son of a high official of the State of Zhao, I naturally can't stay in the State of Zhao. It's fine if I follow you back to the State of Qin. However, not everyone in the State of Zhao is evil and snobbish. Even if the King of Zhao lets me go, I'm afraid the journey will not be smooth.”
"I think so too. So, I hope teacher will take care of me along the way. Teacher's martial arts are strong. If I can return to the Qin country safely, I will definitely ask for teacher's merit in front of my father.”
Ji Wuchen smiled indifferently." Since you've acknowledged me as your master, I'll naturally protect you!”
Zhao Zheng cupped his hands and bowed. After pondering for a moment, he said,"Teacher, I still have one more thing that I don't know if I can do it.”
"Tell me!"
? Suddenly, Zhao Zheng's eyes turned extremely cold and cold-blooded." Before I leave, I want to kill Feng Chong.”
"Must we kill him?"
"I have to die. All these years, he has bullied me, insulted my father, and even my ancestors. I have lived an ignoble life until now because I want to find a chance to kill him. However, every time he comes, he brings many noble children with him. Sometimes, he even brings guards from the residence. With my strength, I can't do it.”
"Sure, when do you want to make a move?”
"He will soon know that I am leaving, so he will definitely not let go of this only opportunity to humiliate me. Perhaps tomorrow, perhaps the day after tomorrow, in short, it will be very soon.”
"I know. If he comes, tell Cheng Jiao to come to Jingyi Pavilion to inform me.”
"Thank you, teacher!"
