It is true that sword fighting is not the mainstream in this world. Warriors still rely on their internal energy to fight. However, even for a martial artist at the master level, it is impossible to rely solely on internal energy in a fight. He will eventually have to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy.

In so many battles, Xiu Yiyin never caused any substantial trouble to Ji Zhao... To use the moba game as an example, he was beaten to zero kills, zero towers, and zero dragons for several consecutive times.

This is incredible... You must know that Xiu Yiyin is the Blood Lotus Sword Master who was cultivated by the Yishan Sect with great effort. He is very talented and can learn lessons after each defeat. Logically speaking, he should have grown after losing a few times... However, we don't know whether he has grown or not. The only thing that is certain is that he did not cause any trouble to Ji Zhao.

Ji Zhao's rich combat experience cannot be explained by common sense.

Xiu Yiyin looked at Ji Zhao and spoke slowly: "No wonder everyone says that you are the reincarnation of Wei Huo."

Ji Zhao was almost tired of hearing this, and smiled nonchalantly: "Do you believe it?"

"I don't believe it." Xiu Yiyin said, "But reality forces me to believe it."

"Reality?"

"To be precise, it was you." Xiu Yiyin said, "You forced me to believe it."

"I said I wasn't."

"But every one of your swords claims to be one."

"Have you ever seen Lord Wu'an fight with swords?"

"If Lord Wu'an were to fight with swords, he would look like you."

Ji Zhao did not respond. He had said enough. Whether others believed it or not was their business. So what? Wei Huo was the reincarnation of Wei Huo. After all, he was a perfect minister in the feudal era and a moral role model. He was not the reincarnation of Sima Yi.

Xiu Yiyin's face remained expressionless: "I'm leaving."

Ji Zhao said, "Why don't you stay a few more days? Considering the value of the Tianguan Rumeng Order, I won't complain if you stay with me for a few more days."

Xiu Yiyin sneered, "You know very well whether our fight is meaningful or not... See you later."

After saying this, he turned around and walked out.

The warrior of Yishan Sect was not as free-spirited as Xiu Yiyin, and said to Ji Zhao: "Thanks for the hospitality of Luohe Pavilion these days. My sword master does not like trivial matters. When the time comes, please inform your elders that the Yishan Sect has left the pavilion."

Ji Zhao nodded and said, "Take care."

The warriors of the Yishan School inexplicably felt a certain awe towards this junior Ji Zhao, and it was unclear whether they truly believed that he was the reincarnation of Wei Huo.

The two left Mount Daizong and went directly to Wangzhou.

Ji Zhao was also summoned by Liu Hanying because of this matter shortly afterwards.

"Minghui." Liu Hanying said, "At the beginning of this year, you and three fellow disciples went to Fengbo City to welcome new students. At that time, the master said that if it was appropriate, you could use this trip to offset the summer school... But, you met the brother of the Taoist Dong on the way, and thus left the main group. If you count it strictly, this mission was not completed."

This didn't sound so nice, but it was the truth. Bad luck was not an excuse for failure, so Ji Zhao asked, "Master, do you have any summer school tasks for me?"

"I guess so." Liu Hanying nodded gently. "I heard from Master Feng that you drew three fortune lots. Fortune lots are the most basic lot, but they are surprisingly accurate. It is better to believe it than not. Moreover, the previous few examples cannot be ignored. If you are asked to go on a mission, I am afraid you will encounter something ominous again."

Liu Hanying paused for a moment, picked up the tea on the chopping board and took a sip, then smiled and said:

"It's not appropriate to keep you in the Pavilion. After all, your previous mission was indeed not completed. So I plan to take you to Taixuan City in Wangzhou during the summer school this year to participate in the martial arts conference with me... In addition, your Master Mo also wants to go to Taixuan City for some reasons. In this way, without a leading master, it will be difficult to distribute the disciples in the Pavilion. So, I plan to take a few more to Taixuan City to make the tasks of other masters lighter. There are about two places. I have already decided on one of them, Guqu. For the remaining place, I plan to pick a disciple with outstanding comprehension from those who are willing to do so to see if they can learn something by then."

Martial artists, after all, are a group of people who speak with their fists. At a martial arts conference, it is naturally impossible to select a martial arts leader by sitting down and talking. Although things like seniority are certainly inevitable, in the end, everything still has to be decided by force. It can be imagined that there must have been several high-intensity battles in Taixuan City at that time. For disciples with high comprehension, the showdown between these top martial artists of the time is no less than a feast for gluttony.

Ji Zhao said: "In my opinion, the disciple with the highest level of understanding in the pavilion should be Brother Nan."

There is absolutely no need to add 'except me' at this time. Ji Zhao's high comprehension is recognized by everyone in Luohe Pavilion. With Liu Hanying's level of cultivation and eyesight, how could he not see it?

"Master naturally knows." Liu Hanying smiled, but there was a little regret in his tone, "Nanxue, he has excellent aptitude and comprehension, both of which are rare talents in the world. However, he is not like Minghui, who has the belief that he must accomplish things. Instead, he has a taste of not having desires and not seeking anything. He is not so active in cultivation. I am afraid he may not have the idea of ​​going to Taixuan City, so Master specially called you here to say so many words today... Go back today and ask him if he wants to go to Taixuan City. If he doesn't want to go, Master will choose one from Caige and Dangkou to take with him."

"I understand."

......

As Liu Hanying expected, Nan Xue had no interest in this matter at all, and Ji Zhao did not tell him that opportunities are rare. This kid was so unlucky in the first half of his life, and he probably wouldn't want others to ask him to do this and that in the name of doing good for him in the second half of his life.

Liu Hanying turned around and called Lu Dangkou and Fu Caige, questioned them separately, and finally decided that Fu Caige would accompany them to Taixuan City.

Ji Zhao was a little surprised by this result. He originally thought that Lu Dangkou would follow, but he didn't expect it to be Fu Caige... To be honest, this person also had a bit of a weird aura, and Ji Zhao vaguely felt that she came to spy on him and Ji Tan for no reason. In short... it was scary.

Volume 5: The Escape of Man: Chapter 60: Gift

"Second sister."

On March 13, Ji Zhao came to the female disciples' dormitory and asked a female disciple to go in and call Ji Tan out.

"What's going on? You'd better be in trouble." Ji Tan came out yawning, sleepy, with loose clothes and some frizzy hair on his head. "If I become ugly because I don't get enough sleep, it will be the loss of the whole world. After all, my beauty will be diminished every moment I breathe."

It was afternoon, and Ji Tan had the habit of taking a nap - this habit had been mostly eliminated by Ji Bei. As a result, when she went out, Ji Tan's old illness relapsed, and he turned into a lazy dog ​​comparable to Yun Xiao. Except for studying at Ci Du Lu every day, he just stayed in bed the rest of the time and never put on makeup. But he looked like a god-given person. Even without makeup, he was still elegant and beautiful like a fairy... If she could keep quiet, this feeling would probably last longer.

Ji Zhao stretched out his hand to smooth down her frizzy hair and said with a smile, "Can't I come to see you if I have nothing to do?"

"...Is it true that you would say such a stupid thing?" Ji Tan slapped Ji Zhao's hand away, and was really surprised. "Who is the person who wants to squat when he goes to the toilet?"

"...It wasn't me." Ji Zhao knew that his hard work in practicing had become a joke in Luohe Pavilion, but he still had to deny it decisively. "At that time, I was thinking about how to improve my practice."

"...You are really thinking about cultivation." This time it was Ji Tan's turn to be speechless. She scratched her head, "Really, I don't know what to say to you... So, what's the matter?"

Ji Zhao took out a pair of gloves made of white gauze from his arms and said, "Here you go."

"Hmm...?" Ji Tan was stunned, and subconsciously took the thin gloves, "For me...?"

"Yeah." Ji Zhao said, "Last time at Ci Du Lu, your hands were quite cold. I wanted to ask why you didn't wear gloves, but I didn't say it out loud. I thought there must be a reason. Later, I asked Master Qiu, and he said that it would be inconvenient to sort the medicinal materials, and it would also be inconvenient to feel the pulse and give acupuncture. So I asked Senior Brother Lu if there were any tailors with better skills in Wuling City. Senior Brother Lu recommended one to me... These gloves are made of silk spit out by snow silkworms in the Great Snow Mountain. Legend has it that Feng Ji wore clothes made of this silk. They are very warm, have a silky texture, and have almost no effect on the touch. Second sister, try them on."

"Ah...hmm."

Ji Tan didn't know if he hadn't woken up yet. For a moment, he had completely lost his usual cleverness and looked dazed. After listening to Ji Zhao's words, he subconsciously put on the gloves. It was not until he felt the touch himself that he came back to his senses. His eyes, bright and affectionate like autumn water, were filled with moving colors.

"Yes, you are thoughtful." Ji Tan wanted to suppress the smile on her lips, but such a simple action became extremely difficult at this moment. She couldn't suppress it anyway, so she simply stopped hiding it and smiled brightly, "Second sister, I like it very much."

"Yeah......"

Ji Zhao originally wanted to say that we shouldn't be too happy too soon, and at least try the warmth function and touch first, but seeing Ji Tan so happy, he didn't say anything more and smiled, "As long as you like it, Second Sister."

Ji Tan was delighted, and as her beautiful eyes moved, a few words surged into her heart. Just as she was about to say them, she heard Han Gongqiu's drawn-out voice from the side.

"Little Ji Zhao." Han Gongqiu used her ability, which was called in ancient music as 'suddenly appearing in any place in Luohe Pavilion'. She stretched out her voice, put her hand on Ji Zhao's shoulder in Ji Tan's eyes of 'what are you doing, old woman', and leaned over slightly, looking pitiful. "Girl, I do this and that in Ci Du Lu every day. It's super hard, and my hands are super cold~~"

"Really?" Ji Zhao smiled gently, "Then Master Qiu, drink more hot water."

"......Although it is a very reasonable suggestion, I don't know why, now I am super angry."

"Master Qiu." Fu Caige pushed the door open and walked out. Her expression was calm, but her movements were quick. She stretched out her hand and pulled Han Gongqiu's hand off Ji Zhao's shoulder, and even moved her body a little further away. "I have a question about my cultivation that I would like to ask you."

"Eh?" Han Gongqiu was stunned. "Now? Wait a minute, girl, I'm still with————"

"I can't wait even a moment. Please come with me." Fu Caige looked calm and walked away pulling Han Gongqiu.

Ji Zhao and Ji Tan were the only ones left in the field. Ji Tan opened her mouth and wanted to say what she had just said, but was interrupted by Han Gongqiu. The atmosphere was gone. She thought of what she wanted to say just now and felt so embarrassed that she didn't have the courage to say it out loud.

Immediately, Ji Tan seemed to recall something and asked, "The snow silkworms of the Great Snow Mountain... The Great Snow Mountain, the sacred place of the Ning people?"

Ji Zhao nodded: "Otherwise there is no other snowy mountain."

"This... isn't cheap." Ji Tan reached out and touched the white gauze gloves. It felt silky and one could tell at a glance that the material was extraordinary.

Ji Zhao said: "With this title, if we sell it at a low price, it will be laughed at."

Ji Tan rolled his eyes at Ji Zhao and lowered his voice a little: "Where did you get the money? Did you get it from that..."

When talking about Lie Lian, Ji Tan paused for a moment, as if thinking about how to address this unmarried sister-in-law. After a breath, he said in a casual tone, "Did you get it from Miss Lie?"

Ji Zhao replied, "I taught Miss Fu martial arts and earned it from her sister."

Ji Tan thought of Fu Xieshi's appearance and felt relieved. However, she soon remembered another thing and asked suspiciously, "Then, who else are you going to give it to? You won't prepare many gifts for many people like last time, right?"

Ji Zhao smiled helplessly: "No... only you, second sister, have it. I'm only giving it to you."

"......This, this is more like it." Ji Tan nodded as if she was satisfied, but then she felt that her previous joyful reaction was too much. She coughed immediately, and her brain worked quickly, trying to make up for it. Her mind has always been very smart. After a moment, she put on the attitude of a sister and taught Ji Zhao a lesson, "Of course, I don't care about this, but for women, the uniqueness of gifts is very important. Don't do it like a wholesale business and give away a lot of gifts at once. Others will feel uncomfortable. When you give gifts to other girls in the future, such as Miss Lielian, you must remember this."

Ji Zhao smiled and said, "What if I want to give one more to my second sister?"

"If it's me..." Ji Tan blushed and coughed, "That's okay... After all, I'm your second sister, we're family, family!"

Volume 5: Escape 1: Chapter 61: Departure

As the days passed, some battle reports from the front line would occasionally be sent back, reporting a defeat here, a victory there, someone having made great contributions, how many enemies had been killed, etc. Overall, the front was in a slightly advantageous position.

However, the biggest reason for this small advantage is not that Yanren played well, nor that Ningren played badly, but simply because Ningren’s spiritual leader, the Phoenix Fengji, was in seclusion.

This man is the most powerful fighter in the world and the real number one in the world. Once he comes out, even if he doesn't take action, just standing there will be enough to cause a devastating blow to the war situation in Yan State.

Regarding this point, we can see from Ji Zhao's side. Many people think that Ji Zhao can be made into the reincarnation of Wei Huo to motivate the three armies. Wei Huo will definitely not lose to Feng Ji?, but the motivation of the two to the army is not on the same level.

First of all, Wei Huo was a figure from the previous dynasty. No matter how much of a moral role model he was as a minister, that was a thing of the previous dynasty. It has been more than a hundred years since then, and no one has seen him, not to mention that Ji Zhao was a reincarnation—and it was fucking fake.

Although his deeds are still being praised in various parts of Shenzhou, when it comes to influence, how can they compare to Feng Ji in the eyes of Ningren? It should be noted that the Ningren quickly transformed from a savage tribe into a great country, and this entire process was led by Feng Ji?. He is the soul figure and the most indispensable core.

Moreover, Ji Zhao would be easily destroyed. Once he was exposed, all the morale he had previously gained would have to be vomited out double. And Feng Ji? ..... He had failed too many times. He was not as invincible as Wei Huo. However, his title was the Phoenix.

Reborn in the flames of despair... this is the Phoenix.

As the war intensified, many shady creatures saw a chance and crawled out of their dark nests... These people can be collectively called practitioners of evil skills.

People who practice magic often have character problems. As far as this world is concerned, magic cannot be considered a taboo and can be suppressed by various drugs or even drinking. However, there are many explanations for evil skills.

Most creators of evil skills believe in this: humans are the essence of all things in the universe, and therefore, humans are the best material for cultivation... In fact, this idea cannot be said to be completely wrong, because in the "setting" of this world, killing as a means can really assist in cultivation.

For those who have no status, qualifications, or money, evil skills are the only chance to turn things around. At this time of change, many ambitious people are trying their best to climb up. For a time, all kinds of evil skills are plaguing the Central Plains.

Under such circumstances, the calls for a martial arts conference are getting louder and louder, and people are eagerly hoping that a wise and brave martial arts leader will emerge to suppress this evil trend.

Driven by this wave, May arrived.

The three disciples Ji Zhao, Gu Qu and Fu Caige packed their luggage early and waited under the sculpture of Wei Huo.

"I can't wait any longer..."

Gu Qu was very excited. Ever since she was told that she would be taken to Taixuan City, she had been having this reaction. Even after so much time had passed, she showed no sign of cooling down.

"No matter how excited we are, we can't fly to Taixuan City." Ji Zhao leaned against the sculpture, still thinking about how to modify Zhao Hongyue's running route. The more changes you make to this technique, the more difficult it becomes. Ji Zhao actually had several successful experiences, adding one or even two new public characteristics to Zhao Hongyue's practice formula. However, this caused Zhao Hongyue's four dimensions to decline to varying degrees, and the two internal breaths also caused a certain conflict, so he had to give up... However, after more than two months of hard work, Ji Zhao felt that he was only one step away from success. As long as there was a slight opportunity or a burst of inspiration, he could complete the modification.

This feeling was like going back to junior high school and facing the final question on a math test. It was so subtle that Ji Zhao lost his appetite and thought about it all day long.

However, Gu Qu was quite good at searching for keywords, and he only listened to what she was interested in: "Flying... Speaking of flying, according to legend, didn't Cang Gu Jue Jian raise a roc? Legend has it that the roc was seven feet tall and had a wingspan of more than twenty feet. Cang Gu Jue Jian could stand on its back and travel to Shenzhou in a few days. If the Pavilion Master also has one, wouldn't we be able to reach Taixuan City in a few days?"

There are all kinds of strange animal legends circulating in this world. It is hard to tell the truth from the false rumors. Ji Zhaoqing knows that this is a game world, and he has seen many unreasonable things. Now he really can't say "this is just a rumor", who knows if it really exists.

Therefore, he followed the other party's brain waves and said casually: "Even if there is such a big roc, it can't carry the five of us."

"No, no." Gu Qu shook his head and said, "The ancients said that yin alone cannot produce life, yang alone cannot grow, all things carry yin and embrace yang. If there is one big peng bird, there will definitely be a second one. By then, there will be two of us, which will just be enough for us to stand. As for the Pavilion Master, he has such a high level of cultivation, so let him run below, maybe he will be faster than us."

Boom!

As soon as Gu Qu finished speaking, he was hit hard on the head. He cried out "ouch", turned around and shouted angrily, "Who?!"

"I." Mo Yu was the same as always, with long black hair fluttering and a cold face, without any extra expression, "Running down there... I think you want to go to the underworld."

"Master Mo..." Seeing that it was Mo Yu, Gu Qu's momentum immediately disappeared. She laughed awkwardly and rubbed her hands, "You know, I'm just talking..."

"You can only talk." Mo Yu knew Gu Qu's character, so she didn't argue with her. She just said briefly, "Use your brain before you say stupid things in the future. If you really don't have a brain, at least observe your surroundings first... With your cultivation level, you should be able to lead a team without any problems. But your brain is full of confusion, and you need others to look after you instead."

Gu Qu, who was caught talking nonsense, didn't dare to talk back and could only nod and agree.

"What's wrong? You're scolding people so early in the morning."

At this moment, Liu Hanying's gentle voice sounded beside her, and she walked slowly towards him in a white robe, making people feel like spring breeze.

Mo Yu didn't say anything, but stared at Gu Qu with cold eyes.

Gu Qu whispered, "Pavilion Master...don't ask anymore, it's my fault."

"Always careless." Liu Hanying smiled and reached out to touch Gu Qu's head. With his intelligence, he could guess the general idea just by guessing.

"Have you brought everything?"

Mo Yu's cold voice sounded, and his eyes swept across Gu Qu and Fu Cai Ge, but he was a little evasive when he came to Ji Zhao.

"Don't get halfway there and say you forgot to bring something. I'll think it's your head you forgot to bring... Let's go."

Volume 5: Escape Part 1: Chapter 62: Past Events (Part 1)

Ji Zhao has always felt that compared to disciples from other sects, the most important special skill that Luohe disciples should master is map running.

Since joining Luohe Pavilion, he has made several long journeys, some of which were across states. The farthest trip was when he even followed Han Gongqiu across half of China to Wangbei City in the north.

Of course, Ji Zhao's situation is special. Normally, other Luohe disciples would not travel all over the country like Ji Zhao, but it is undeniable that they still travel far more often than the disciples of the orthodox sects... The time for disciples to practice is also greatly compressed. Therefore, the disciples sent by other sects to Luohe Pavilion to learn skills are often not the real core of the sect's future in terms of "military force".

For example, if Xiu Yiyin was sent to Luohe Pavilion, he would definitely not be able to reach the current level.

However, Luohe Pavilion's strength lies in its acceptance of all comers. There are many martial arts, a wide range of choices, and it is much more lenient in teaching martial arts. Except for the legendary "Wei Huo Secret Teachings" which no one knows whether it actually exists, the rest are given to people to practice when they are suitable. For example, a top-level martial art like Zhao Hongyue, no one in a serious sect could learn it, and it was impossible to let Ji Zhao, a beginner, practice it, even if he had a relationship with Ji Bei.

But it's normal for people to eat with a bowl in hand and curse when they put it down. Ji Zhao sometimes felt that the summer and winter schools had affected his progress in cultivation.

"Brother Ji, Brother Ji."
