Daning County.

Chu Ning rode a horse and headed towards Jijia Town.

Officials in this world are all warriors, which has also led to the scarcity of sedan chairs.

Warriors all prefer riding horses to sitting in sedan chairs.

However, before arriving at Jijia Town, Chu Ning tied the horse on the road on one side.

A bay-red horse with a silver saddle is the standard equipment for officials. No one dares to steal this horse.

Naturally, his coming to Jijia Town was not a real return home in fine clothes. Ji Yang's tribesmen would recognize him as long as they saw him.

Originally, his plan was just to use Ji Yang's identity to learn the blood-burning technique at the Blood Fire Camp and then retreat without having to deal with Ji's family.

But now the plan has changed. He has to go to the capital, and he has to patch the last loophole in his identity.

Chu Ning changed into the captain's clothes, entered Jijia Town in regular clothes, and went straight to Ji Yang's uncle's house.

Instead of knocking on the door, Chu Ning chose to climb over the wall and enter.

Following the movement, he found Ji Yuanshan in the backyard, and after making sure that there were no other outsiders in the backyard, he walked in.

"Uncle Ji!"

Ji Yuanshan was by the pond in the backyard, seeming to be thinking about something. He turned around when he heard the voice, and when he saw Chu Ning, there was doubt in his eyes.

"Who are you, your Excellency? It's a bit too much to come into my house uninvited."

Chu Ning smiled slightly: "Uncle doesn't even know his nephew, why should he still knock on the door when he returns to his own home?"

According to the time, Ji Yuanshan had already received the letter he wrote.

"Uncle?"

"Uncle, didn't you receive the letter my nephew wrote in the military camp a few days ago?"

Ji Yuanshan's eyes were deep: "My nephew does not look like you, and my nephew's handwriting is not like that."

When he first received the letter from Junyi, he was excited for a while. It was good news that his nephew was not dead.

But after opening the letter, he noticed something was wrong when he saw the first line of words. His nephew's handwriting was not like this.

So, someone is pretending to be his nephew?

In the past few days, he has been thinking about this question. Why did the other party pretend to be his nephew?

My nephew is just an ordinary warrior soldier in the military camp. What are the benefits of pretending to be his nephew?

The most important thing is how he passed the military camp review?

At the very least, this person must know his nephew's affairs very well, not only about his nephew's affairs in his hometown, but also in the military camp.

"Chun Ning, I didn't expect that your current appearance has changed so much."

Ji Yuanshan suddenly spoke, and Chu Ning smiled again. Ji Yang's uncle was really a smart man, and he thought of his identity so quickly.

"How did uncle guess it?"

Hearing Chu Ning call him "uncle", Ji Yuanshan somewhat understood what his nephew said.

"What I admire most about Chu Ning is that he can give up his face for his own goals. In order to make money, he was willing to put down his face to fetch water and clean the toilets in the school."

"Besides you, I can't think of anyone else who would pretend to be my nephew, and who could even pretend to be my nephew."

Ji Yuanshan thought about it and it seemed that only Chu Ning would do this.

Chu Ning knew about his nephew's past in Daning County. His nephew often wrote to Chu Ning to tell him what happened in the military camp. And most importantly, Chu Ning was being hunted down.

Originally, he didn't know about the existence of Wushuang Sect, but almost everyone in Daning County knew that Chu Ning was wanted by Wushuang Sect. After his inquiries, he also gained some understanding of Wushuang Sect.

For such a huge creature, it would be difficult for Chu Ning to avoid pursuit, but hiding in the military camp was a good way.

"At first, I thought you were just pretending to be my nephew and hiding in the military camp. I didn't expect that even your appearance had changed. No wonder you dared to come back. I'm afraid that if you stand in front of the people at Wushuang Sect, they won't recognize you."

Even I couldn't recognize Chu Ning, let alone those Wushuang disciples who had never seen Chu Ning's appearance and only relied on the portrait.

"Yeah, he's not as handsome as before."

Chu Ning's exclamation made Ji Yuanshan not know what to say. It didn't matter whether he was handsome or not if he could survive.

"You came to me this time because you want me to keep your identity secret so that you can continue to stay in the military camp, right."

"Uncle is really smart."

"I can let you continue to use the identity of my nephew, but in exchange you have to promise me two things."

"Uncle, please speak."

Chu Ning nodded, as it should be.

"First, the Ji family does not have a martial artist yet. I hope you can help train a martial artist. Of course, I will select talented children."

A town named after a surname is enough to show that the Ji family has a big surname. However, if there is no martial artist with such a big surname, not to mention whether there will be instability within the clan, there will be many external forces slowly eroding the interests of the Ji family. .

Ji Yuanshan was originally optimistic about Ji Yang, but unfortunately Ji Yang died.

He is still alive now, and his reputation and strength can still suppress some internal conflicts among the Ji family members, and everyone in the Ji family listens to him.

Once he leaves, the Ji family will have no successors, and the family will slowly collapse.

"no problem."

Chu Ning agreed without much thought. Training a martial artist was not a big deal for him now.

Isn’t it just silver and elixirs?

Wushuangmen sent a wave of fat ones, which was enough.

"What about the second condition."

"Forget it, the second condition is no longer necessary."

Ji Yuanshan suddenly changed his mind. Originally, his second condition was to ask Chu Ning for money, but now he decided not to want it.

The reason for asking Chu Ning for money is to use it to train the children of the family who are talented in martial arts. Practicing martial arts is indeed too expensive.

But when Chu Ning agreed so easily, without even thinking about it, he decided not to mention the condition.

Chu Ning agreed so quickly, not to temporarily appease himself, which means that in Chu Ning's eyes, a martial artist is nothing.

Even eighth-grade or even seventh-grade martial arts masters will not find it easy to train a martial artist. Only strong military commanders will not care about this.

He was not sure whether Chu Ning had reached the realm of a military commander. If so, how many years Chu Ning had been practicing martial arts could only mean that Chu Ning was an extremely talented martial arts genius.

The future growth will be extremely terrifying.

If Chu Ning agreed so easily without becoming a military commander, there was only one possibility. The resources to train a martial artist would be nothing to him.

No matter what the reason is, it proves that Chu Ning has broken away from the county power level and entered a higher level.

Don't mention the second condition, keep this feeling, maybe it will be of great use one day in the future.

With this condition, it would be a pure deal with Chu Ning.

"Then uncle will choose a young man with good qualifications to bring him. I will live at home these days."

Liu Mansion.

"Little sister, brother is here to see you."

Chen Jingwu didn't knock on the door, slapped the door open, and strode in.

The door creaked and shook. When Liu Junshan saw this scene, his eyes almost burst into flames. This guy did it on purpose. He did it every time he came. As long as he came three times, he would have to change the door.

"Brother, why are you here?"

Chen Jingyi looked at her brother. Ever since he was forced by the clan elders to take office in the state capital, he had come to Daning County once every half a month. The last time he came was five days ago.

"What, brother is not welcome?"

"Yes!" Liu Junshan answered.

Chen Jingwu stared at Liu Junshan, and Chen Jingyi watched the two men staring at each other, feeling helpless. Her brother and her husband seemed to be incompatible with each other, and they never liked each other.

"Brother, there must be something wrong with you coming here this time."

Chen Jingyi chose to divert the attention of the two men.

"It's nothing serious. I just met a young man in the state capital today. He studied in Daning County School a few years ago and is now a captain in the army."

"I stayed at Daning County School a few years ago. Wasn't Junshan at Daning County School at that time? What's that person's name?"

"Ji Yang."

"Junshan, do you know this student?"

Liu Junshan shook his head directly: "Ji Yang is indeed one of the many students I led, in the same class as Chu Ning, but with Ji Yang's talent, it is impossible to break through to the realm of a military commander in such a short time, even if he is from the four major sects. Even the leader’s son can’t do it.”

"It's true or false, but I think that although this person has not reached the realm of a military commander, he is already a seventh-level martial artist. I'm afraid he is not far away from becoming a military commander. You can't be mistaken."

"I won't be mistaken. Ji Yang was still a long way from being a martial artist after three years in the school, so he chose to join the army to fight in the hope of using his military exploits in exchange for elixirs to enter the realm of martial arts as soon as possible. Besides, I heard Chu Ning mentioned that Ji Yang has died in the battle at the border."

Seeing Liu Junshan's affirmative expression, Chen Jingwu was a little confused. What happened to Ji Yang?

"Brother, how do you feel about this Ji Yang?" Chen Jingyi asked suddenly.

Chen Jingwu thought for a moment and said, "Don't tell me, this Ji Yang looks familiar to me, and I feel like I've seen him before somewhere, but he said that he and I have never met before."

"Junshan, I want to say something next, but you have to calm down."

Liu Junshan looked at his wife, a little confused. What could make him lose his composure?

"Then Ji Yang is most likely Chu Ning."

Chen Jingyi's words made the two men present stunned at the same time. The next moment Chen Jingwu slapped his thigh: "Little sister, you reminded me, now that I think about it, although the outline is different, the facial features are really similar to Chu Ning."

"The Wushuang Sect is very powerful. It is indeed a good idea for Chu Ning to hide in the military camp, and Chu Ning should be very familiar with Ji Yang's affairs." Chen Jingyi said the reason for her judgment.

"It's Chu Ning who didn't run away. This kid actually told me that he didn't know him and even lied to me." Chen Jingwu said very dissatisfied.

"Then there must be other people around you, brother. In addition, Junshan, I told you to calm down because people from Wushuangmen may have been watching you. If you go to Ji Yang now, it's okay if it's not. If it's Chu Ning, it is very likely that he will be exposed."

Seeing her husband's excitement, Chen Jingyi advised: "If we want to see Chu Ning, we need to find a way that won't expose him."
