Chapter 1, I, who am so handsome.

In Zhao Family Village, there are three thousand valiant warriors from Jingchu, and they come equipped with their own armor and weapons

In his slender figure and handsome appearance, several village beauties used to flock around him. Now, in his current state, even Cuihua from the village is unwilling to pay him any attention

How unfortunate

Zhao Shuang once had the intention of relocating his entire family to Peixian

Once his cultivation improves, the sword energy will become more refined, and his cultivation will naturally rise, leading to a reduction in body weight

Of course, provided that you do not stand opposite him

The main force of the 50,000 Wei troops consists of the martial soldiers

Shuang'er, you have arrived

In this era, whether among the various feudal states or the local nobles, the system of primogeniture is universally practiced.

More than thirty years ago, Bai Qi, the Marquis of Wu'an of the Qin State, captured the capital of Ying, declaring the final outcome of this battlefield

Following such a general, one enjoys wealth, meat, and women

Recently, the three states of Han, Wei, and Chu have sent envoys to seek to win over our clan. In particular, the state of Chu aims to take advantage of this season to reclaim the southern region.

Guiguzi slowly recited this fragment of bamboo slip, his face showing both joy and a hint of worry

In this era, the issue of personnel is a significant concern

The decline of the six states is not due to ineffective military forces or poor warfare, but rather the fault lies in bribing Qin. Bribing Qin while depleting one's own strength is the path to destruction

Zhao Laosi was somewhat narrow-minded, and he smiled faintly

Interesting

The rise and fall of nations has given birth to countless heroes in the realm of military strategy. After a century of the Zhao family, we have finally produced a prodigy of exceptional talent. Even if you desire him, I would be reluctant to part with him

Although Zhao Shuang did not understand why Zhao Laosi would ask him such a question, he immediately shook his head

With the spear thrust down, blood flows profusely, yet what is reaped is laughter and joy

On that rainy day, Zhao Shuang witnessed with his own eyes how this man, with bare hands, slaughtered nearly dozens of sword-wielding assassins from the Luo Wang, including two first-class experts, who had joined forces to hunt him down.

A talented individual, if not nurtured, will ultimately find it difficult to achieve greatness. Such a talented person, following you, Zhao Laosi, can only learn some military strategies and cunning tactics

Wu Qi, the defender of Xihe, once achieved a great victory against the 500,000 troops of the Qin state with an army of 50,000 from Wei in the battle of Yinjin

Unlike the typical web killer, this man is not weary of a life of killing; rather, he claims to have attained a higher realm and no longer wishes to be a slave to the sword, thus he has abandoned it.

The Seven Warring States engaged in continuous warfare for hundreds of years, with the smoke of battle still lingering across the land. Everyone learned to navigate their own path to survival amidst the surging waves of conflict

I understand your meaning

The rushing water flows eastward, nourishing a vast valley.

Zhao Shuang, how did you end up here? The clan leader is calling for you

Zhao Laosi smiled, with a hint of pride still on his face

At the summit of the cliff, the clouds are ethereal

What does the term "Guigu Xiong" mean

Zhao Shuang gazed up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, lamenting in his heart

Shortly after Zhao Shuang left, Zhao Laosi slightly opened his mouth

Until a few years ago, Zhao Shuang inadvertently saved a swordsman

However, Zhao Shuang quickly regretted it

I have a matter that I would like to ask for your opinion on

Along the banks of the Han River, in the region of Yongchu, due to its location at the intersection of the four states of Qin, Han, Wei, and Chu, it has long been a battlefield for confrontations among these nations

After this battle, the State of Qin was on the brink of destruction.

Zhao Shuang, though a child of a concubine, is highly valued by this clan leader

Zhao Shuang sat under the tree, propping her chin on her hand, watching with some boredom as the strong members of her tribe joyfully ran off in search of prey in the distance

According to this old fellow, this set of sword techniques was derived from his accidental acquisition of fragments of ancient secret arts while on a mission.

The Confucian scholar Xun Kuang once owed me a favor. I would like him to come to my valley for three months to teach my two inept disciples some poetry and literature

Time flies, and Zhao Shuang still remembers hearing the elders of the clan speak of the scenes where they followed the military leader Bai Qi, who was invincible in battle.

He has not practiced himself yet

What is the matter

Dong!

No!

This old fellow passed a set of sword techniques to Zhao Shuang, and after practicing them, Zhao Shuang gained forty pounds in a year

Joking aside, opposing Brother Zheng at this time will surely lead to being recorded in the little black book, and what good outcome can one expect from that

Dong!

Originally, if it were just like this, Zhao Shuang would lead a boring life of practicing martial arts and writing, contemplating whether in the future to cling to Brother Zheng or Brother Bang

The Han River is a magical river

Guiguzi smiled as he looked at Zhao Laosi, who also smiled faintly in return

These old fellows always like to stand in such high places to talk to people

What a pity!

With just a few words, I have captured the essence of my style. Unfortunately, I first recruited Gai Nie and then Wei Zhuang. Otherwise, I would have wanted to gather them under my command and teach them.

Old Zhao! I ask you, next time you arrange to meet someone, could you find a flat place? Look at my current condition, can I withstand your antics?

The ancient bell tolls resonate through the valley, the sound is melodious

Although the State of Qin is in danger, its foundation has not been lost, and closing its borders is sufficient for self-defense. The six states, though numerous, each harbor their own ulterior motives. Relying on our geographical advantages, we are capable of standing independently; why should we entangle ourselves in the disputes of the feudal lords? How many times has the strategy of alliance ever succeeded?

For over a hundred years, the two powerful vassal states of Qin and Chu engaged in fierce confrontations around the areas of Hanzhong, Yong, and Nanyang along the banks of the Han River

Zhao Shuang complained, although there was a significant disparity in their statuses, the clan leader of the Zhao family did not mind

The road is lined with phoenix trees, attracting the phoenix to perch.

Bai Qi once said, the bravery of these three thousand armored soldiers is no less than that of the troops guarding the western river under my command

The valleys are lush and green, the forests are dense and thick, and on a flat piece of mountainous land along the Han River, houses are being built.

This elderly man claims to be a top-tier swordsman in the organization known as the Luo Network, and wishes to withdraw from it, thus he is pursued and hunted down

Zhao Shuang, swaying her plump body, climbed up with great difficulty, unable to suppress her inner complaints.

For the nobility, hunting is merely a pastime; however, for the mountain dwellers in the humble regions, hunting is an essential means of survival

At the very least, this is the case for Zhao Shuang

Zhao Shuang saved this critically injured master, and he agreed to take Zhao Shuang as his disciple

Zhao Family Village is a large village in the region of Yongchu, possessing its own armed forces, somewhat akin to mercenaries

How is Guigu Xiong?

Dong!

The arrows flew swiftly, startling a chorus of bird calls and beast roars

The reason Zhao Shuang gained weight is that when practicing this sword technique, the vital energy fills the limbs and bones. When the body can no longer accommodate the excess vital energy, the physical capacity will expand until it reaches a limit

This is also a very dull era

Zheng Ge's thighs are thick, yet he is difficult to approach. In contrast, Bang Ge is much easier to approach.

Why?

Regardless of the world, it is a society that values appearances

The rise and fall of hegemony saw the Qin and Chu states interacting with each other. Over the past century, the Zhao Shuang clan has been numerous, with some being subjects of Qin and others of Chu

Especially for a force like Zhaojiacun, which exists on the fringes of various nations, those who have survived without being completely consumed and drained by the competing powers are all monsters

Zhao Laosi nodded and waved his hand to signal him to step back

Since the new king of the Qin state ascended to the throne, external power was held by Lü Buwei while internal strife existed between Huayang and Zhao Ji. Within the Qin state, various factions were engaged in fierce competition, and the new king's position was far from secure. At this critical juncture, all the states were watching closely, eager to seize a piece of the Qin state's wealth.

The patriarch of the Zhao family is an old man with white hair and beard, said to be a descendant of King Huiwen of Qin, and he is quite advanced in age

The State of Qin completely eliminated the threat posed by the State of Chu, transitioning from a state of conflict between the two nations to a strategic offensive.

An old man approached from the side, dressed in a long robe of black and white, holding a bamboo slip in his hand

These three thousand valiant warriors from Jingchu, who have succeeded one another through generations, once followed the Marquis of Wu'an, Bai Qi, in the conquest of Yingdu.

From this point onward, the vast territory extending from Longxi in the west to Jingdi in the east was entirely under the control of the Qin state, and the Zhao Shuang lineage was completely transformed into Qin people

This sword technique is something you chose to practice yourself; now that it has become this way, who can be blamed?

Generals like Wu Anjun are not only favored by emperors, but also admired by ordinary soldiers alike

Such an army is naturally an object of contention for various forces seeking to win it over

This is an era of great upheaval and grandeur

The fourth in the ranking of the Zhao clan, his real name is known by very few people now
