The newcomer was none other than Lei Zhenzi.
Lei Zhenzi had a strange appearance with a pair of wings under his ribs. At first, Ji Chang was scared out of his wits. Lei Zhenzi immediately told Ji Chang his identity. How could Ji Chang believe him?
When Ji Chang went to Zhaoge City, he accepted the newborn Lei Zhenzi as the hundredth disciple, but Lei Zhenzi was taken by Yun Zhongzi to the mountain to cultivate.
Ji Chang went to Zhaoge City to be convicted and imprisoned in the Denglong Prison. Today, he escaped with the opportunity of Kua Guan. It had only been seven years. Lei Zhenzi was tall and strong, and his appearance … was quite powerful. How could he look like a seven-year-old?
However, Lei Zhenzi said that he looked like this after eating two immortal apricots. He didn't explain much and just carried Ji Chang on his back. They passed through the clouds and fog, passed through five passes, and landed on the Golden Chicken Ridge.
Lei Zhenzi saved his father and went back to find Yun Zhongzi obediently. After all, he was only seven years old and was quite obedient.
Ji Chang was also found by the ministers of Xiqi, and they returned to Xiqi together. After entering Xiqi, there was the story of King Wen spitting his son.
Yang Jian saved Ji Chang once and entered the Three Strategies of Breaking the Shang in the forest, which shocked Ji Chang and left a deep impression on him.
After that, Yang Jian traveled around the vassal states around Xiqi, doing charity and saving some mortals with the Immortal Method, accumulating his reputation.
Half a year later, Yang Jian couldn't remember how many people he had saved. He only knew that his portrait was enshrined in many places, and he also sensed a bit of the power of incense.
After that, he entered the territory of Xiqi and found a beautiful place to live in seclusion.
He was now in charge of the List of Deification. The Heavenly Dao sensed it, and the matter of deification changed.
Yang Jian just waited here, treating the mountain people when he had nothing to do, and thinking about how to break through.
Where was the limit of the Yunzhu State? How to break through?
If he couldn't figure it out, Yang Jian's Eight Nine Mysteries would be stuck in a bottleneck and couldn't make any progress.
After staying in the mountain for another half a year, Yang Jian thought hard but couldn't come up with a solution. He decided to go sightseeing and relax, waiting for the 'Flash of Inspiration'.
Comprehending the Dao was also about accumulating strength.
Yang Jian calmed himself down and started studying the mystic arts, studying the ancient star map given by the Fuxi Celestial Emperor, studying the secrets of his own body and studying the Dao rhythm of Genesis that even the sages were jealous of.
Gradually, Yang Jian seemed to have touched something, as if he only needed one more step to break through the limits of the Yunzhu stage.
But just how many cultivators were stumped by this step? How much of their lifespan was exhausted?
Countless people failed to attain immortality, and countless Golden Immortals failed to attain Daira. They were just half a step short …
Yang Jian was lying on the treetop, basking in the sun and resting with his eyes closed.
When it came to cultivation, one couldn't force it. Even if one tried, one wouldn't get it.
He relaxed his mind and continued to comprehend the nature of heaven and earth, searching for an opportunity to break through.
On a whim, he built a few straw huts beside the Wei River and took in some children from the mountain villagers. He taught them how to read and write and cultivate their character.
A few months later, the sound of reading came from the straw hut. Yang Jian sat leisurely on the rocking chair outside the hut and felt much calmer.
It was impossible for him to fish. He wasn't Jiang Ziya.
Anyway, he just had to wait for Ji Chang to find him. He could just wait slowly.
Looking at the Wei River flowing east, the surging water seemed endless. Yang Jian suddenly had a feeling. He deduced the accompanying array formation of the 36 Sea-Calming Divine Pearls and immediately gained something.
In that case, he would not waste his time.
"Teacher." A delicate girl ran out of the straw hut. "I've already read it ten times!"
Yang Jian waved his hand. "Read it ten more times! After reading it ten times, copy it three times. As the saying goes, the meaning of a book will be revealed after reading it a hundred times. When you understand the essence of this poem, you will be able to learn and use it. "
"Oh!" The girl agreed obediently and ran back with her pigtail swaying.
The sound of reading came from the straw hut again. More than ten children shook their heads and read some simple poems that Yang Jian had written casually.
The days passed slowly. Yang Jian would occasionally write a few letters to Meishan, telling his family not to worry and telling Xinke about the pain of missing each other.
It was spring again. The sun was warm, and the sound of reading came from the straw hut again.
Yang Jian sat in front of the door and was taking an afternoon nap. A figure walked along the Wei River and saw Yang Jian lying in front of the straw hut from afar. He was inexplicably excited.
Who else could it be but Ji Chang?
After Ji Chang returned to the Zhou Nation, he immediately followed Yang Jian's instructions. He promoted agriculture and encouraged fertility. At the same time, he reorganized the army and practiced every day. He also made friends with the feudal lords and kept sending gifts to Zhaoge City. He did not rebel immediately.
He moved the capital east to the Wei River and built a bier. He recruited talents everywhere and became more and more famous among the feudal lords. The people trusted him more and more, and the fate of the Zhou Nation flourished.
Ji Fa also worked hard to learn the art of war and governance. He prepared to avenge his elder brother every day. However, Ji Chang did not allow him to use his weapons, so Ji Fa could only endure it for now.
One day, Ji Chang dreamed that when he was praying at the bier, the bier caught fire. He was trapped on the bier and could not move. Suddenly, a silver-armored general appeared and released a white dog. The white dog opened its mouth and bit his robe, pulling him down from the bier.
After Ji Chang woke up, he immediately divined and knew that a sage was waiting for him to invite him. He followed the divination and went east along the Wei River.
When he arrived at a village, Ji Chang asked who was the hero here. The villagers only said that there was a young immortal in the mountains who taught the children how to read and write. He could also cure all kinds of diseases and was quite effective.
Ji Chang could not help but think of Yang Jian. He became spirited and left his troops behind to find the few thatched cottages mentioned by the villagers.
From afar, Ji Chang saw Yang Jian who was lying down and sunbathing. He could not help but burst into tears and shouted, "Ji Chang of Xiqi greets you!"
"Hmm?"
Yang Jian opened his eyes and thought that the old man was finally here. He smiled and swept the bed to welcome him.
"Benefactor, I did not expect to see you again today!" Ji Chang bowed to the ground again.
Yang Jian did not mention anything else. He helped Ji Chang to sit down and announced that the class was over. He asked the children to go back first.
However, Yang Jian's favorite girl stayed behind. She smartly went to the side room to make some tea and brought it to Yang Jian and the Marquis of the West. She said obediently, "Teacher, please have some tea."
Yang Jian chuckled. He felt that the girl's spiritual root was not bad and she was quite smart. He asked, "Since this lord has found this place today, it is about time for me to leave. I intend to take you as my disciple and teach you Dao techniques. Are you willing to leave with me? "
The girl blinked and tilted her head. She did not seem to understand what Yang Jian was talking about.
Yang Jian stretched out his hand and pointed to the front. The Wei River was instantly cut off and huge waves surged. Yang Jian turned his hand and pressed down. The huge waves calmed down and the Wei River surged again as if nothing had happened.
Yang Jian ignored the dumbfounded Marquis of the West Ji Chang and looked at the girl. "I am a cultivator of Dao. I have the method to become an immortal and can help you become an immortal. Are you willing to take me as your teacher? "
"Then my mother … what about her?"
"Ha." Yang Jian smiled and squinted his eyes. "Have you heard of the saying, when a man achieves Dao, his fowls and dogs follow him to heaven?"
The girl blinked and knelt down. "Teacher."
"From today onwards, you have to call me Teacher."
Yang Jian released the snoring Celestial Hound and gave it a few instructions. He placed the little girl on the back of Celestial Hound and went straight to the village to find the little girl's family.
Seeing the white dog, Ji Chang no longer hesitated. He knew that this was the Virtuous Sage he was looking for. He grabbed Yang Jian's hand and refused to let go.
"Last time, I heard about the strategy of governing the country and bringing peace to the country. Ji Chang followed it accordingly and really allowed the people under his rule to have ample food and clothing and a strong army. Benefactor, please come back with me. I will worship benefactor as a doctor!"
"To tell you the truth, I left the mountain under orders to help Western Zhou fight against Zhou of Shang," said Yang Jian. "Emperor Xin is cruel and tyrannical. He goes against the law and does not deserve to be called the Human Emperor. Since Marquis of the West Ji has invited me, I should help you. "
Ji Chang was overjoyed and refused to let go of Yang Jian's arm.
Yang Jian wondered if he should use a transformation technique to make himself older. If he was being held by Ji Chang, outsiders would think that he was Ji Chang's long-lost grandson …
Immediately, Yang Jian waved his hand and the straw huts turned into specks of starlight and disappeared. Ji Chang was not surprised and pulled Yang Jian to the village at the foot of the mountain.
On the way, Yang Jian asked about the changes in Xiqi. Ji Chang kept answering, and Yang Jian gradually became more confident.
Whoever was on the side of the Heaven and Earth was destined to be the winner.
However, there was still a long way to go for the Zhou Nation of Xiqi to rise. Yang Jian advised Ji Chang not to be anxious and said that a general would come to Chaoge City to help in a few years. At that time, Xiqi would directly face the Shang army.
Ji Chang hurriedly asked, "Sir, what should we do in the next few years?"
Yang Jian smiled and summed it up in a few sentences. In general, it was conscripting soldiers, accumulating food, seizing territory, and forging the entire Zhou Kingdom into an iron plate.
Of course, he had to be more profound to make Ji Chang admire him more.
Ji Chang didn't want to wait a moment longer. He returned to the village and met up with a few civil officials who accompanied him. He directly issued an imperial order to appoint Yang Jian as the Imperial Physician. He then pulled Yang Jian along with him.
Although the officials were dissatisfied, they did not dare to say anything. After listening to Yang Jian and Ji Chang's conversation, they were surprised by Yang Jian's knowledge and thoughts. They all thought that he might really be a paragon, although he looked so young …
Soon, the Celestial Dog chased after them with the girl. The tears on the girl's face had yet to dry, and she was carrying a small package on her back.
"Woof! Woof! "
The Celestial Hound was reporting that it had already marked the parents of the little girl. Yang Jian had already sent a jade talisman to the Meishan Mountains. In a few days, there would be people coming to pick up the parents of the little girl and bring them to the Meishan Mountains.
"Since you've already become my disciple, forget your previous name." Yang Jian looked at the girl's delicate and flawless face and felt a little mischievous.
The girl said, "Master, please give me a name."
"In the future, your Dao name will be Zi Xia."
"Yes, Master."
Zi Xia?
The girl muttered softly. Her face was flushed, and she was quite satisfied with the name.
Yang Jian said, "I will be in the human world for more than twenty years. You will cultivate by my side. When I return to the mountain, I will bring you to meet Grandmaster."
Ji Chang, who was at the side, looked at Yang Jian with more and more respect. He was not stingy with his rewards for the girl named Zi Xia.
Yang Jian suddenly thought of something that would happen thousands of years later. A playful smile appeared on his lips …
Zi Xia.
