Simultaneous Transmigration: Both Start in a Near-Death State
Chapter 8 Becoming Guo Jing's Apprentice
Before long, a man and a woman came to Li Keyangguo.
The man was tall and robust, with broad shoulders and a thick back.
He was dressed in coarse cloth shorts, simple and unadorned. Just standing there, he gave people a sense of uprightness, composure, and gravitas.
The woman looked to be under thirty, with stunning beauty and fair skin.
She was dressed in a light green dress, with her long hair tied up in a bun. She looked the two of them over, and when she saw Yang Guo, she frowned slightly.
He really looks like Yang Kang.
The woman sighed inwardly.
The man also noticed Yang Guo.
Upon seeing that face that resembled Kangdi's, the man was filled with excitement.
"You two must be Master Guo and Chief Huang, right?"
Li Ke stood in front of Yang Guo, bowed respectfully, and then asked.
Upon hearing this, Guo Jing immediately replied, "I am Guo Jing."
He pointed to Huang Rong: "This is my wife, Huang Rong."
Guo Jing asked, "You must be Li Ke, the young brother who sent me and Rong'er a message, right?"
Li Ke nodded: "That is indeed me."
He then pushed Yang Guo in front of Guo Jing and Huang Rong: "He is Yang Guo."
Upon hearing this, Guo Jing quickly asked, "Is your mother Mu Nianci?"
Yang Guo nodded.
Guo Jing grew increasingly agitated. He said, "Guo'er, your father and I are sworn brothers. Come back to Peach Blossom Island with me, and from now on, I will take care of you!"
Guo Jing already felt guilty for not being able to take good care of Yang Kang before, and now that he has found Yang Kang's son, he only wants to make it up to Yang Guo.
Huang Rong frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.
She was wary of Yang Guo.
There was nothing they could do; Yang Guo's father had indirectly died at Huang Rong's hands.
This is an unchangeable fact.
Not to mention, she was also worried that Yang Guo might turn into someone like Yang Kang in the future.
Upon hearing Guo Jing's words, Yang Guo immediately shook his head: "I asked my elder brother to bring you here not so that you would take care of me."
"I only want to know one thing today."
Guo Jing asked in confusion, "What is it?"
Huang Rong's heart skipped a beat.
"How exactly did my father, Yang Kang, die?"
Yang Guo asked.
Guo Jing's face stiffened.
He wanted to speak, but couldn't bring himself to say it.
Guo Jing was afraid that Yang Guo would hate Huang Rong.
Guo Jing could only say in the end, "This is a long story. I will tell you everything when you grow up."
Seeing this, Yang Guo said, "Actually, even if you didn't say it, I knew this matter must be related to Aunt Guo."
Yang Guo then said, "Uncle Guo, don't worry."
"I know what kind of person my father, Yang Kang, was."
"I know him..."
"Please tell me exactly how my father died."
"The sooner I knew, the sooner I would have accepted it."
Upon hearing this, Guo Jing couldn't help but look at his wife.
Huang Rong nodded.
Seeing this, Guo Jing had no choice but to tell Yang Guo the details of Yang Kang's death.
Yang Guo closed his eyes after hearing this.
In fact, Li Ke had previously hinted to him, both openly and subtly, that Yang Kang was not a good person.
But hearing what Guo Jing said with his own ears still made him feel a little uncomfortable.
No wonder my mother never told me who my father was.
Oh, I see.
Yang Guo opened his eyes and suddenly knelt down.
Guo Jing and Huang Rong were startled.
Guo Jing reached out to help Yang Guo up.
Yang Guo kowtowed and said, "I will bear the sins of my father, and I will repay them."
Guo Jing helped Yang Guo up and said, "Child, this has nothing to do with you. You are you, and your father is your father."
Looking at Yang Guo in front of him, Guo Jing sighed in his heart, "Brother Kang, if you could be as responsible as Guo'er, how could you have ended up like that?"
Seeing her Jing-gege's expression, Huang Rong knew that he was very satisfied with Yang Guo.
She really didn't want Guo Jing to get involved with Yang Kang.
But she knew that once Guo Jing made a decision, it would be difficult for her to change it.
Guo Jing said again, "Guo'er, let's go back to Peach Blossom Island with Uncle Guo."
Huang Rong sighed inwardly, "I knew it."
"No, Uncle Guo."
"I made an appointment with my older brother."
We're going to Xiangyang.
Yang Guo said.
Guo Jing asked in confusion, "To Xiangyang?"
Yang Guo nodded: "Yes, to Xiangyang."
"My elder brother said that the Mongols are wolves in sheep's clothing and covet the Song Dynasty. They will definitely attack Xiangyang again."
"Once Xiangyang falls, our Great Song Dynasty will be in grave danger."
"So I'm going to Xiangyang to join the army."
"My father failed the Song Dynasty, and I cannot fail the Song Dynasty."
As Yang Guo spoke, he stepped back and stood behind Li Ke.
Guo Jing and Huang Rong looked at the two men; one was so shocked that he couldn't speak, while the other vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
Guo Jing quickly said, "You are all too young. Besides, the Mongols haven't attacked Xiangyang yet, so there's no need to rush."
Li Ke suddenly started practicing boxing, and Yang Guo followed suit.
Guo Jing was puzzled.
The two completed a set of punches in sync, after which Li Ke confidently declared, "Yang Guo and I practiced martial arts, so we're different from ordinary people."
Guo Jing was very anxious: "Your skills are just fancy moves. Not to mention on the battlefield, individual martial prowess can only make you invincible for a short time. If you are not careful, not only you, but even Xiang Yu would be surrounded and killed."
Li Ke and Yang Guo, however, paid no heed to the consequences.
Yang Guo said, "Uncle Guo, I now know how my father died. If you have nothing else to do, you may leave now."
"Don't worry, Uncle Guo."
I'll visit you when I have time in the future.
Li Ke and Yang Guo turned and left.
Guo Jing became even more anxious.
He quickly looked at his wife.
Huang Rong wanted to tell them to go, but she knew she couldn't do that.
Huang Rong had no choice but to pick up the dog-beating stick and give a slight signal.
Guo Jing understood instantly.
He leaped and landed in front of the two men in an instant, saying, "If you want to join the army, you'll have to get past me first."
"If you defeat me, I will let you join the army."
Li Ke and Yang Guo exchanged a glance.
Li Ke remained confident: "I know the fame of Master Guo, but Yang Guo and I are not made of clay either."
"That's right, that's right! My older brother is number one in the world, and I'm number two!"
Yang Guo was also full of confidence.
Seeing this, Guo Jing was even more determined to stop them.
If we don't stop them, we're just sending them to their deaths.
Guo Jing roared, "Come here!"
Li Ke bowed respectfully and said, "Excuse me."
Yang Guo also said, "I apologize."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Ke and Yang Guo, one on the left and one on the right, dodged and attacked Guo Jing.
One man swung a punch at Guo Jing's head, while another kicked at his lower body.
If it were an ordinary person, they would really find it difficult to withstand such an attack.
After all, two fists can't beat four hands.
But who is Guo Jing?
boom!
Li Ke and Yang Guo were sent flying, crashing heavily to the ground.
He was covered in dust and dirt, looking quite disheveled.
Guo Jing walked up to the two men and asked, "There are people beyond people, and heavens beyond heavens."
"With your martial arts skills, let alone joining the army, you probably won't even be able to leave Jiaxing Prefecture."
"I've only just started practicing this set of boxing techniques. Wait for me to practice some more. Before long, I'll be able to master it."
"Yes, yes, we've only just started practicing, that's why we lost."
"Uncle Guo, don't worry, we'll practice until we're ready before we go."
Guo Jing looked at the two of them, feeling extremely troubled.
This set of boxing moves looks good but is useless? You want to keep practicing? You could practice it your whole life and still not be able to fight.
Guo Jing then looked at his wife.
Huang Rong shook her head, indicating that she had no other options.
She actually knew what to do, but she didn't want to say it.
Guo Jing turned around and saw the two of them supporting each other as they struggled to their feet.
Goodbye, Uncle Guo.
Yang Guo greeted them, then helped Li Ke walk towards Jiaxing City.
Guo Jing watched the two figures disappear into the distance, feeling very anxious.
Seeing the two walking further and further away, Guo Jing finally came up with an idea.
He used his lightness skill to land in front of the two.
Yang Guo said in a helpless tone, "Uncle Guo, what are you doing? We already said we'd practice our fists first before we go, are you going to stop us?"
Guo Jing shook his head and said, "I will teach you martial arts."
Seeing this, Huang Rong felt even more strongly that Li Ke and Yang Guo had ulterior motives.
Could they be deliberately trying to provoke Jing-gege into teaching them martial arts?
Huang Rong smiled disdainfully, "Alright, then I'll play along."
