Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 439 Frustrated Again
When Qin Zhiyong entered the city gate, he happened to meet Lian Jin leading someone out of the city.Seeing their hurried appearance, Zhao Mu must have guessed that Zhu Ji was in Zou Yan's convoy.

One hundred secrets and one sparse.

It has to be said that Zhao Mu's vigilance is very strong.

Qin Zhiyong didn't stop Lian Jin, nor did he intend to help Zou Yan.Zou Yan's spiritual realm is higher than his own, and he practiced Taijiquan and Taijijian.

It would be a big joke if he couldn't even protect Zhu Ji and Zhao Pan.

…………

Zou Yan and the others were soon overtaken by Lian Jin.

Lian Jin rode on horseback and stood in front of Zou Yan's convoy: "Mr. Zou Yan, Miss Qinqing, my Lord Marquis has an order to invite you back."

There was a trace of panic in Qin Qing's eyes, sitting in the carriage, he said to Zou Yan: "Teacher, what should we do now?"

Zhu Ji and Wang Zizheng were in the carriage behind.

As long as Lian Jin searches, it will definitely be exposed.

Zou Yan calmly said: "Don't worry. Lian Jin is quite capable, but he alone can't stop us. Let's go out and meet Lian Jin for a while."

Zou Yan's self-confidence made Qin Qing calm down.

Qin Qing and Zou Yan got out of the carriage.

Qin Qing stared at Lian Jin and said, "Lian Jin, you are so courageous. My teacher came to give lectures in Zhao State, even the King of Zhao would treat him with courtesy. How dare you stop us from leaving?"

Lian Jin was neither humble nor overbearing, and said: "Lian Jin dare not. But I have to obey Lord Hou's order. I also hope Miss Qinqing and Mr. Zou Yan don't make things difficult for me."

Qin Qing said coldly: "Can Zhao Mu, Marquis of Julu, cover the sky with one hand and do whatever he wants?"

Lian Jin said: "Please Mr. Zou Yan and Miss Qin Qing come back to the city with me. If you have anything to say, you can talk about it when you see Lord Hou."

Zou Yan said with a smile: "Is it just for the old man and Qin Qing to go back to the city? No problem. The old man will go back with you to meet Juluhou. The old man also wants to know if Zhao Mu has anything else to discuss with the old man."

Lian Jin said: "It's not just Mr. Zou Yan and Miss Qinqing, it's all of you."

Zou Yan shook his head and said, "That's not acceptable. The old man is going to other vassal states to give lectures and promote Taoism. If everyone goes back, it will take a lot of time."

Lian Jin said: "Then Lian Jin will be offended."

Qin Qing said coldly: "Lian Jin, do you dare to do it?"

Qin Qing has only practiced boxing in the past few days, and she has almost no combat power.And she practiced boxing, not to kill people, but purely to strengthen her body.

The light in Zou Yan's eyes flashed, and he said: "Lian Jin, if you rely on your sword skills and want to bully me, an old man, I'm afraid you will be disappointed."

Zou Yan took a few steps forward, and he was less than ten steps away from Lian Jin.

Zhu Ji and Zhao Pan sat in the carriage behind, their hearts were in their throats, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.

If Mr. Zou Yan can't resist Lian Jin, it will be over.

Lian Jin jumped off his horse and attacked Zou Yan.

He wanted to subdue Zou Yan in one fell swoop.

In the past, Lian Jin looked down on those who were educated.I feel that they are all weaklings with no power to restrain the chicken.No matter how good your knowledge is, you can't stop the long sword in your hand.

But after meeting Qin Zhiyong, Lian Jin didn't think so.

The world is too big to be a frog in a well.No one knows when a strong man with extraordinary martial arts suddenly appeared.

Before Qin Zhiyong came to Zhao country, he was just an unknown person. Who knew he was a world-class powerhouse?
Zou Yan is the founder of Yin Yang School, Lian Jin dare not take him lightly.

When the spiritual realm has reached Zou Yan's level, any knowledge can be mastered quickly.Boxing and swordsmanship are actually not such a complicated knowledge.

Zou Yan saw the right moment, and grabbed Lian Jin's long sword.

A swordsman, without a sword in his hand, will lose at least [-]% of his combat power.

Lian Jin was shocked back a few steps by Zou Yan's ingenuity, with a look of incredulity on his face.

"Impossible." Lian Jin said.

After practicing health-preserving skills, Lian Jin's strength has increased a lot, but he didn't expect that even Zou Yan's move could not be caught.

Zou Yan said: "Nothing is impossible. Lian Jin, with your swordsmanship, you are no match for this old man. Get out of the way."

Zou Yan stuck the long sword in the ground, turned around and took Qin Qing into the carriage.

Lian Jin and the twenty swordsmen under his command watched Zou Yan and the others leave without haste.

A swordsman said: "Young Master, Mr. Zou Yan has left, how can we explain to Lord Hou when we go back?"

Lian Jin was a little dejected, and said, "How do I know how to explain? Tell the truth. I didn't expect Zou Yan's martial arts to be so strong. Even if we fight together, we won't be his opponent."

When a person encounters the first blow, he may be able to overcome difficulties and regain confidence, but when he is hit one after another, he will doubt himself and deny himself.

Lian Jin was defeated by Qin Zhiyong with one move before, but now he was frustrated again, and Zou Yan took away his long sword with one move.He suffered a great blow psychologically and began to doubt life.

Could it be that he is really that bad?
…………

Sitting in the carriage, Qin Qing breathed a sigh of relief: "Teacher, you are too powerful. Young Master Hongying Lian Jin is a master of swordsmanship. I didn't expect you to take his long sword away with one move. In my opinion, even Jin is just a dude who doesn't live up to his name."

Zou Yan said: "Qin Qing, don't underestimate any master of swordsmanship. Lian Jin's strength is very strong. If he makes another move, the old man will not be able to resist. Hey, although the old man's state of mind is high, he is old and weak after all. , not as powerful as young people."

Zou Yan is old.

No matter how high his spiritual realm is, it is impossible to truly rejuvenate his body.At most, it will live a few decades longer.

Zou Yan and Xunzi are different from Qin Zhiyong.

Qin Zhiyong began to consciously cultivate his mind and body. He was not yet 30 years old, and soon reached the state of "entering concentration".After that, Qin Zhiyong continued to absorb knowledge and exercise his body, allowing his physical fitness to break through the peak of the human body.With the continuous improvement of mood, the body cells regained their vitality again, breaking through the life span limit of ordinary people.

Xunzi and Zou Yan are getting old. They didn't exercise their bodies when they were young. Although their mental state is high, they are old and frail. It is impossible to maintain strong physical fitness.

The power of the mind cannot prevent their bodies from aging.Because they have passed the best time to practice.

Zou Yan took a look at Qin Qing and said: "Qin Qing, you are still young, if you practice Tai Chi well, maybe you can live an extra one or two hundred years in the future, just like Qin Zhiyong. I have no chance in this life .”

…………

Lian Jin returned to Juluhou's mansion in desperation, knelt on the ground on one knee, and pleaded guilty to Zhao Mu.

Zhao Mu was angry, and kicked Lian Jin: "It's useless. You can't beat Qin Zhiyong, but you can't beat a 80-[-]-year-old old man, it really insults your status as a master of swordsmanship."

Lian Jin lowered his head and said: "Master Hou, Zou Yan is not simple. His martial arts are much stronger than his subordinates. In front of him, his subordinates can't catch a single move. Please ask Master Hou to let his subordinates bring more people. Go, when the time comes, the subordinates will definitely bring Zou Yan and the others back."

Zhao Mu said, "How many more people do you want?"

Lian Jin said: "You need 1000 subordinates."

1000 people?

Lian Jin wanted to take the army to arrest him.

However, in order to capture strong men like Qin Zhiyong and Zou Yan, the only way to do so is to use the army, and the capture may not be successful.
