C168 Teaching

Zhang Jingxuan didn't say a word to these people about the attack on the road. He only solemnly reminded everyone to be on guard at all times. He also asked Lee Huanqing about Li Dingguo's mother, Sun Wangyi, and Liu Xuekui's children. He found out that they were all very good. He slowly started to get used to the life in the stronghold. He only felt his feelings for them. It was a concern and also a heavy responsibility. When he thought about the many starving people who were still sleeping outside Xi'an Prefecture City, he could not help but feel disappointed and frustrated.

At this moment, Kuan Jiangjing suddenly rushed in. He braked in front of Zhang Jingxuan and smiled at him. He tilted his head slightly, turned around, and left. He didn't even say a word, but Zhang Jingxuan still felt an inexplicable warmth.

He followed Kuan Jiangjing out and saw that they were heading towards the back of the mountain. Zhang Jingxuan knew in his heart that his trip was probably not in vain. Finally, he could meet Lee Yuming and Mr. Lee.

The two of them travelled very quickly. In a short while, they arrived at the back of the mountain. They saw that the mountain behind the mountain was extremely steep. The mountain only had rocks, and its walls were as tall as a thousand Ren. It was dazzling. The entire piece of rock was extremely smooth, as if it had been cut by a knife or an axe. Even people with high martial arts would use gecko skills to travel around the wall. Even so, it was impossible to reach the height of a thousand zhang in a single breath. The marvelous work of nature was truly breathtaking.

Kuan Jiangjing arrived at the edge of the cliff and did not stop. He only turned his head and smiled at Zhang Jingxuan. Then he jumped down the cliff. Zhang Jingxuan was slightly stunned, but he was not surprised. Was seventh elder brother testing his courage? Ha, interesting.

In any case, whatever seventh elder brother did, he would just follow suit. Anyway, he believed that seventh elder brother would never harm him.

Kuan Jiangjing's body was like floating cotton. After falling down two meters, he reached out his hand and grabbed an inconspicuous dry branch on the cliff. With a light swing, he disappeared from his sight.

Zhang Jingxuan did not have the slightest fear when facing the ten thousand feet high cliff. He immediately followed the calabash and jumped down. In midair, he found that Kuan Jiangjing had already jumped into a cave about forty to fifty feet away from the top of the cliff.

The cave was slightly dented in the wall. If he didn't jump in the air like this, he wouldn't be able to see it if he stood at the top of the cliff.

The moment he reached out his hand to grab the withered branch, Zhang Jingxuan realized that it wasn't a natural thing. It was artificially created, no different from ordinary withered branches. However, the strength of the branch was many times stronger, so he didn't have to worry about breaking it.

With a flip of his body, Zhang Jingxuan landed in the cave. When he landed, he found that seventh elder brother was looking at him with a smile that was not a smile.

"Eighth Brother, you have to be careful in the future. Don't be careless. If I had plotted against you just now, you would have fallen off the cliff. Don't believe that the things in those novels are all lies. Falling down to... People would really die at the bottom of the cliff, not when they met a peerless master or picked up a martial arts secret manual. You have to remember this! "

Seeing Kuan Jiangjing's serious expression, Zhang Jingxuan couldn't help but laugh.

"Haha, alright, alright. I remember now. Thank you, seventh elder brother, for your teachings!"

He answered absent-mindedly while looking around. The cave he was in was not small. It was a huge project to build such a large scale on such a cliff.

The cave entrance was not very big, but it had its own secrets.

The road that extended inwards was paved with limestone. The surrounding walls were brightly lit, and the arched roof was about two people tall. The cave was wide enough for eight people to walk side by side.

The ventilation in the cave was also done very well. There was no moisture or moldy smell at all. It was just that there was a trace of coldness, because the cave was inevitably in the belly of the mountain.

It was unknown how deep the cave was. After walking for about fifty to sixty meters, there were three forks in the road, which were a little narrower than the main road. If they walked further, they did not know how many forks in the road would be.

Kuan Jiangjing led Zhang Jingxuan to the middle of the road. They walked another fifty to sixty meters. There were stone rooms on both sides of the road, and some people could vaguely feel that there were people inside. Kuan Jiangjing didn't say anything, and Zhang Jingxuan didn't ask anything.

They didn't go too far, and they arrived in front of a stone room that looked no different from the one in front of them. Kuan Jiangjing pushed open the door and entered. Zhang Jingxuan followed him in, and finally saw the person he wanted to see the most when he came back to the village.

Lee Yuming's expression was still not good, and he looked a little grey, but he seemed to be in good spirits.

However, the moment they saw each other, Lee Yuming looked especially solemn and serious.

He frowned slightly and looked at Zhang Jingxuan, pondering silently. This naturally caused Zhang Jingxuan to feel restless. At this moment, Kuan Jiangjing was hugging his arms and did not help. He just stood there habitually. He did not know where his mind had wandered to.

Seeing Mr. Lee like this, Zhang Jingxuan's stomach was full of words, but he couldn't say it out loud. He felt very uncomfortable holding it in.

At this time, Lee Yuming finally smiled. The ice and snow melted, and the stone room felt like a spring breeze. Zhang Jingxuan suddenly felt a huge weight in his heart fall to the ground. Only now did he realize that even his breathing had become uneven. He raised his hand and patted his chest.

Lee Yuming walked over and raised his right hand in the air. He gently patted Zhang Jingxuan's head and said:

"This is my first and last time patting your head. This was usually a gesture to express the affection of the elders towards the younger generation, although it was friendly. This is my first and last time slapping you on the head. So from now on, I won't treat you like this anymore. It's only because... You have grown up and are no longer a child.

Since you are no longer a child, there are many things that you have to think twice before doing. Your courage and motivation can bring you many merits and glory, but at the same time, it can also bring you harm or even death.

You have to know that wandering the Jianghu is equivalent to wandering on a steel wire. If you are not careful, you may end up in eternal damnation. Only by protecting yourself first can you seek the next breakthrough.

Luck will not only favor one person forever. It will also occasionally bless your opponent. You must remember this point!

Furthermore, the responsibility you are shouldering is getting bigger and bigger. It is impossible for you to do everything by yourself. There are many things that you must learn to assign to the people around you. Trust them, encourage them, and treat them as part of you."

At this moment, Zhang Jingxuan finally understood why Lee Yuming, Mr. Lee, would treat him with such a stern face in the beginning.

Because of his curiosity and carelessness, he often liked to walk on the edge of danger. Putting himself in an unsafe situation, for example, the battle below the city was just a little bit away from causing a huge disaster. Of course, this couldn't be hidden from Mr. Lee, which was why he said such words to him in a serious manner.

Shame and gratitude. Zhang Jingxuan's eyes turned slightly red for a moment, and he couldn't help but extend his hand and scratch his head in embarrassment.

In front of Lee Yuming, Zhang Jingxuan unknowingly seemed to have returned to his childhood and revealed his childish side.
