Chapter 3 Escape

Zhen Man left, even if Di Jiu wanted to cheer up, but when he thought of Zhen Man's beautiful face and the words "I'm sorry" when she left, he no longer had any fighting spirit.

If it weren't for Qu Xiaoshu, maybe Di Jiu would have continued to be so decadent.

After becoming a prodigal in Pearl City, Qu Xiaoshu became Di Jiu's only friend. Qu Xiaoshu has martial arts roots, but he doesn't like to practice martial arts. He and Di Jiu, who has no martial arts roots, wander around the Pearl City all day long. Although Di Jiu didn't intend to be a bully, in fact no one in Pearl City dared to offend Di Jiu. Under normal circumstances, whenever they see Di Jiu and Qu Xiaoshu arriving, everyone will quickly get out of the way.

Until one day two years later, when eighteen-year-old Di Jiu and Qu Xiaoshu were drunk in a restaurant, he saw Zhen Man who had returned to Pearl City to visit relatives. Next to Zhen Man, there was a man wearing a white coat and a back A handsome young man holding a long sword.

Eighteen-year-old Zhen Man is even more beautiful and refined than two years ago. Standing in the streets of Pearl City, her ethereal figure makes the entire Pearl City lose its color because of her. From her expressionless eyes, Di Jiu knew that Zhen Man no longer had half a shadow of him in her heart.

She and the young man in white stood together like a couple. All this made Di Jiu feel a little sore. Even though he knew that he and Zhen Man would never get together again, seeing this scene now, he realized that he had never let go.

"Haha, what's so great... Ah Jiu... If you have martial roots, a hundred Zhen Man can't keep up with you... Come, let's drink..."

The drunken Qu Xiaoshu half-closed his eyes, picked up another glass of wine, drank it all, and curled his tongue before saying.

Di Jiu didn't drink. He thought of his purpose of studying medicine. At the beginning, he studied medicine because he was worried that he would not be able to test his martial arts skills at the age of sixteen, so he had to start from the medical field to find his martial arts roots. Why did he forget all about his original determination after testing that he had no Wugen?

Not only that, he also spent two years wandering around the Pearl City doing nothing. Although his father never said anything to him, how could he not know his father's disappointment?

In this case, why did he study medicine for four years in the first place? Xiaoshu was right. If he had martial arts roots, he Di Jiu wouldn't be any worse than Zhen Man.

Looking at Zhen Man walking away, Di Jiu stood up, drank all the wine in the cup, raised his hand and smashed the cup in his hand against the wall.

From today on, that passionate boy will never be seen again.

"What's the matter?" Qu Xiaoshu raised his head and asked in a daze. As for the waiter in the hotel outside, even if Di Jiu demolished the house, he would not dare to come in and talk nonsense.

Di Jiu took a deep breath and said, "Xiaoshu, I will never go out to drink again. I will continue to do my own thing."

Qu Xiaoshu was already snoring and didn't hear Di Jiu's words clearly at all.

…

Di Jiu kept his promise and began his endless medical research again.

In Jiguo, there is no one who can be his teacher, which does not matter to Di Jiu.

Another three years have passed. During these three years, Di Jiu has tried countless medicinal materials and tried countless prescriptions. Although he did not find a way to open martial arts roots in the past three years, he did obtain three prescriptions to help warriors practice.

Each of these prescriptions was enough to drive the martial arts practitioners crazy, but Di Jiu did not take out any of them.

In the past few days, Di Jiu has been frantically digging for medicine in Jibei Mountain, because he has found a new recipe that may unlock Wugen. The main medicinal material of the new recipe is Tibetan hemp.

A stone? Di Jiu bent down and picked up the gray stone from the dirt he dug up.

He obviously dug along the rhizome of the Tibetan hemp, but instead of digging out the Tibetan hemp, he dug out a stone.

He was about to throw the stone away, but the cold feeling in his hands made Di Jiu feel that the stone seemed different from ordinary stones.

Maybe this is an ice jade stone. How much the ice jade stone is worth, Di Jiu really doesn't care. Although everyone in Pearl City knew that Di Jiu was useless, at least he was not short of money.

His father Di Shan was the founding hero of Ji State, and he was a brother to the king of Ji State, King Mingyi. Four of his five brothers died for the country, and one died protecting the third prince. Both sisters married into the Mingyi royal family. It can be said that in the entire Ji State, his Di family is extremely wealthy.

With such a background, how could he, Di Jiu, be short of money?

"If it were really ice jade, today would be worth the day..." Di Jiu smiled mockingly and wiped the dirt from the stone in his hand. He didn't care about money, but at least he didn't get nothing from this day.

Before Di Jiu could put the stone into his pocket, a terrifying cracking sound sounded in the sky. Di Jiu raised his head in shock. He was horrified to see a black crack appear in the blue sky.

A ray of light golden lightning struck from the black crack and directly hit the top of his head. When it was over, Di Jiu closed his eyes subconsciously, his face a little pale.

It was as if a bucket of ice water with electric current was poured over the top of his head. Di Jiu's whole body felt cool and had a numbing feeling.

fine? Di Jiu raised his head, and the black crack in the sky in the distance was still there. He subconsciously looked at the gray stone in his hand, and then he was shocked to find that there was a thin golden thread in the middle of the original gray stone.

Isn't this the pale golden lightning that I just saw? The shape is exactly the same, how come it shrunk and ended up among this stone? He clearly remembered that when he first got the stone, there were no golden filaments in the middle. No, I still have my own hands...

A trace of black dirt seeped out of his wrists and arms, and then he felt a change in his whole body that he couldn't describe, and his brain seemed to become extremely clear. Di Jiu always knew that he was very smart. He was sure that before this, his brain was definitely not as clear as it is now.

This gray stone is definitely a good thing, and the light golden filament inside this stone is not simple either. It seemed that the golden streak just now did not fall on him, but on the stone, and was absorbed by the stone.

Di Jiu had no intention of continuing to dig up medicinal materials at this moment. He couldn't wait to take the gray stone back to his father to see what it was. At the same time, he also wanted to tell King Mingyi about the appearance of a black crack here. He could not contribute on the battlefield like his brothers, so being able to report the appearance of a void crack here could be regarded as a contribution to the country.

Once King Mingyi asked him to make a request, what should he ask for? Yes, he should leave Jiguo and visit the Luyuan Empire.

"Ajiu, run away..." Di Jiu was still in the midst of lust when an anxious voice came from his ears.

"Xiaoshu, what's going on? Why do you have to run away so fast?" Di Jiu looked at his friend Qu Xiaoshu who was rushing towards him in surprise and asked in complete confusion. His father, Di Shan, was the most powerful general in the country of Ji, with one person inferior to ten thousand people. Why would he, Di Jiu, have to run away?
