Chapter 144: Brother 143’s meeting gift!

Zheng Guoqu stood there, his heart full of doubts and shock. He didn't understand why Meng Tian and Ku Zhu, who suddenly appeared, would call him "junior brother". His eyes wandered between Meng Tian and Ku Zhu, trying to find the answer.

"General Meng, what do you mean by this? Why do you call me junior brother?" Zheng Guoqu finally couldn't help but ask.

Meng Tian and Ku Zhu looked at each other and smiled, and Meng Tian replied: "Our master is Ji Chen, what do you think?"

Zheng Guoqu was shocked when he heard Ku Zhu mention Master Ji Chen, and his eyes showed shock.

Zheng Guoqu's thoughts were interrupted by Meng Tian's voice: "What? You haven't reacted yet?"

Ku Zhu chuckled lightly and nodded: "Junior brother, we are indeed Ji Chen's disciples. Since you are also Master's disciple, we are naturally a family."

Zheng Guoqu was stunned for a moment, and then an expression of sudden realization appeared on his face. He bowed deeply and said respectfully: "I see, I never knew that Master has other disciples. Senior brother...Junior brother Zheng Guoqu pays my respects."

Meng Tian and Ku Zhu looked at each other and smiled, expressing appreciation for Zheng Guoqu's attitude. Ku Zhu said: "Junior brother, looking at your performance just now, Master's teachings are indeed extraordinary. We will have many opportunities to communicate in the future."

Meng Tian continued: "I learned a lot from the discussion just now. We can learn more from each other in the future."

Zheng Guoqu felt extremely honored and excited in his heart. He did not expect that he would have the opportunity to communicate with other disciples of his master. He replied: "Senior brother, I have given you too much praise. I still have many shortcomings. I hope I can learn more from my senior brothers in the future."

When the guards of the Qin army outside heard this, they looked at each other and were very shocked. They did not expect that General Meng Tian and this young man were brothers, and they also studied under Master Ji Chen together.

An older guard whispered to the other guards: "It seems that General Meng's martial arts is so high, not only because of his talent, but also because of the support of the immortal master. It is simply terrifying."

Another guard nodded in agreement: "Indeed, this explains General Meng's amazing combat power. From this point of view, Mr. Zheng Guoqu is no small matter."

Ku Zhu looked around, and then said to Meng Tian and Zheng Guoqu: "Okay, now that the discussion is over, we might as well change places and have a detailed chat."

Meng Tian nodded in agreement: "What a good idea. Let's go to the garden in the courtyard. It has a pleasant environment and is the best place for talking."

The three of them walked out of the reception room together and came to the garden in the courtyard. The garden was filled with the fragrance of flowers and the environment was quiet, suitable for long conversations.

After sitting down, Zheng Guoqu asked with curiosity and awe: "Senior brother, can you tell me more about Master? Since I became a disciple, I have rarely had the opportunity to see Master."

Kuzhu smiled and nodded, and began to tell some past events about Ji Chen. His words were full of respect and nostalgia for his master. Meng Tian occasionally interrupted and added some details. The three of them were chatting and laughing in the garden, as if they had forgotten the time. passage.

In such an atmosphere, Zheng Guoqu felt that his soul was greatly satisfied, and he deeply felt the honor of being Ji Chen's disciple.

For Meng Tian and Ku Zhu, such exchanges also made them feel very precious. They understood that although their paths were different, they were both trying to practice their master's teachings and keep moving forward for a higher goal.

The conversation in the garden gradually deepened, and Zheng Guoqu's respect for Meng Tian and Ku Zhu grew day by day. He listened with interest to the stories and experiences of these two senior brothers, and at the same time he admired their knowledge and abilities.

As the night got darker, Ku Zhu took out a small pill bottle from his arms and handed it to Zheng Guoqu: "As a senior brother, I naturally have to give him a greeting gift. This is the 'Concentration Qi Gathering Pill' I refined. It is useful for regulating the breath." It is very helpful to improve the efficiency of cultivation.”

The elixir bottle was made of exquisite bronze, with delicate patterns carved on the surface. It looked both simple and elegant. He gently opened the bottle cap and saw a few crystal clear elixirs lying quietly inside, emitting a faint light. , it smells like a light medicinal fragrance.

"Thank you, senior brother. I will cherish this gift." Zheng Guoqu said sincerely.

Meng Tian took out a small package from his robe and handed it to Zheng Guoqu: "This is the talisman refined by my brother Meng Yi. Although I am not good at it, this talisman can save lives at certain times."

Zheng Guoqu opened the package and saw several paper talismans inside. Each talisman was painted with complex patterns, which seemed to contain some mysterious power.

One of the talismans has a flame pattern painted on it, and the other has a fluttering cloud.

"These are the 'Fire Talisman' and the 'Floating Cloud Talisman'. The former can emit strong flames to attack the enemy, while the latter can increase the speed and flexibility for a short period of time." Meng Tian explained.

Zheng Guoqu felt his heart heat up when he looked at these precious gifts. He bowed deeply: "Brother, I don't know how to thank you."

Ku Zhu and Meng Tian looked at each other and smiled. Ku Zhu said: "We are from the same sect, so we should help each other. From now on, we can compete together and learn from each other."

"Yes, junior brother, we still have a long road ahead, let's walk on it together." Meng Tian added.

Kuzhu also ordered some snacks and said with a smile: "These are snacks from Xianyang City. Although they are simple, they have a unique flavor."

At this moment, Zheng Guoqu suddenly said: "However, the food is not as delicious as Senior Sister Dong'er's." There was a trace of nostalgia in his words.

Meng Tian and Ku Zhu looked at each other and smiled when they heard this. Ku Zhu asked, "Who is Senior Sister Dong'er?"

A warm smile appeared on Zheng Guoqu's face: "Senior Sister Dong'er is a senior sister from Fairy Mountain. Not only is she highly skilled in cultivation, but her cooking skills are also top-notch."

Meng Tian felt a little curious after hearing this: "Sounds like an amazing senior sister. I hope to meet her one day." As the morning sun gradually warmed up, Meng Tian, ​​Ku Zhu and Zheng Guoqu continued to walk along the busy street, and their conversation became more and more in-depth. .

Kuzhu replied with a smile: "On Fairy Mountain, our life is very simple, but every day is full of practice and learning. Master teaches us not only practice, but also truth and philosophy of life."

Meng Tian added: "Yes, Master always teaches us that strong martial arts is just a means. What really matters is inner cultivation and understanding of the world."

Zheng Guoqu listened, with admiration and yearning shining in his eyes. He quietly made up his mind that he would continue to improve his inner cultivation like his two senior brothers.

Zheng Guoqu looked at it and chose an exquisite jade pendant.The jade pendant is completely translucent and is engraved with a flying phoenix, which is very delicate.

"This jade pendant is very good. It represents ascension and nirvana." Kuzhu said with a smile.

In the afternoon, the sunshine was warm and genial, and the three of them found a quiet teahouse to sit down.The environment of the teahouse is elegant, surrounded by green plants, and the air is filled with the faint fragrance of tea.

Meng Tian ordered a few pots of good tea, and the three of them chatted while drinking tea.

While Meng Tian, ​​Ku Zhu and Zheng Guoqu were enjoying tea and chatting leisurely in the teahouse, a handsome young man walked in.

He is tall and tall, with a handsome face. He is wearing a dark blue robe and a delicate jade belt around his waist, giving him an elegant yet majestic feeling.

After Meng Yi saw Meng Tian, ​​he walked over quickly with a respectful and friendly smile on his face: "Brother, senior brother."

When Meng Tian saw Meng Yi, a happy smile appeared on his face: "Brother, why are you here? What's the matter?"

Meng Yi said respectfully: "Brother, I am here on the orders of King Qin Yingzheng. King Qin invites you and Brother Kuzhu to go to Zhangtai Palace to discuss important matters."

Meng Tian nodded to show that he understood. He turned to Zheng Guoqu and said, "This is my younger brother Meng Yi, who is also your junior brother. He follows Master Ji Chen to practice the talismans and has profound skills."

Meng Yi smiled and returned the greeting: "Senior brother, you're welcome. We are all from the same sect, so there is no need to be so formal."

Meng Tian then said: "We might as well go to Zhangtai Palace together. Since King Qin has summoned us, there must be something important."

Kuzhu and Zheng Guoqu nodded in agreement, and the four of them left the teahouse together and headed towards Zhangtai Palace.

On the way to Zhangtai Palace, Zheng Guoqu was curious about Meng Yi's arrival and asked: "Junior Brother Meng, I heard that you have high attainments in the way of talismans. Can you introduce it to me?"

Meng Yi smiled slightly and began to introduce: "The way of talismans is an ancient mysterious technique. Through special talisman paper and ink, combined with specific spells and ideas, talismans with various magical effects can be made. For example, you can use to defend, attack, or heal.”
