Chapter 159 Ji Cheng and Wu Qianning
Zhou Zhilu couldn't help but recall the content recorded by Emperor Wu, which mentioned that after ambushing Concubine Wu's team, people did not find Concubine Wu's body afterwards, and the general Ji Cheng who was in charge of the ambush mission also disappeared with her.
Zhou Zhilu looked at the crystal coffin in the center of the formation. The corpse lying in the coffin was none other than Concubine Wu!
"Could it be... that you are Ji Cheng, the general of the Zhou Dynasty?" Zhou Zhilu asked in disbelief.
A general of the Zhou Dynasty? Ji Cheng?
Upon hearing this, Jing Zhan and the others looked at the disgusting monster. They didn't know who Ji Cheng was, but they knew Zhou Chao well. That was more than three hundred years ago. If he was a general then, he must be at least four or five hundred years old.
The only people known to the world today who can live to four or five hundred years old are those at the ninth level. Could it be that the other party is a ninth-level expert?
Jing Zhan shook his head suddenly, dispelling the wild thoughts in his head. If it was really the ninth level, he and others would have died long ago.
"Ji Cheng... such a familiar name... how do you know my name?" The monster was stunned and murmured blankly. He didn't expect that after three or four hundred years, someone could still call out his name.
"It's really Ji Cheng? I happened to see what the late emperor wrote about you. You were the one who killed Concubine Wu... right?" Zhou Zhilu raised his eyebrows and said slowly.
As soon as these words came out, nearly a hundred eyes of various kinds on Ji Cheng's body suddenly glared at Zhou Zhilu and roared, "Nonsense! I didn't kill her! She is the person I love most in my life, how could I kill her!"
Jing Zhan and the others around him were all puzzled upon hearing this. According to historical records, wasn't Concubine Wu ambushed by a hostile nation while on a diplomatic mission to Fuhai Kingdom? How could it be that this Zhou Dynasty general had killed her?
"If you didn't kill her, then how did she die? It's clearly written in the late emperor's book!" Zhou Zhilu questioned, but he was actually happy in his heart. He was originally worried about how to spread the things about Concubine Wu in Emperor Wu's book and convince everyone. Now, Ji Cheng's existence is really the most suitable person to tell the truth.
"Song Hao... he knows nothing! He only has to cover the rear and doesn't have to face anything. The one who was truly deceived is me, me!"
Song Hao... This was the first time Zhou Zhilu heard the real name of Emperor Wu.
Jing Zhan immediately shouted, "Don't insult the late emperor!"
Ji Cheng ignored him, his eyes lost in memories, and he slowly said, "Miss Wu... she was a star-like figure."
…
At the end of the Zhou Dynasty, there were wars and chaos. If you ask where the most people were, the most populous place would undoubtedly be the medical clinic.
Whether it was the epidemics that broke out everywhere during the war years or the soldiers who were injured fighting on the front lines, doctors at that time were as valuable as gold.
In a small border town, a group of soldiers in cloth armor were queuing up for treatment. One of the teenagers covered the knife wound on his arm and bit his lip to endure the pain.
When it was his turn, he saw that the person treating him was a young girl, so he said worriedly: "Can you do it? If not, let's get another old doctor."
The girl rolled her eyes at him and snatched his arm away. The boy gasped in pain and was about to curse when he saw the girl carefully and skillfully treating the wound on her arm.
"I didn't realize you were quite good at it." The young man said with a pout.
"I want to be a great doctor. Treating this wound is nothing." The girl said without raising her head.
"Great doctor? You're a girl...hiss!" The boy was speaking when he suddenly felt a pain in his arm. He gasped and glared at the girl.
The girl's face was filled with determination. She looked up and said, "What's wrong with you, girl? Just wait and see. I won't give up even if I die!"
The young man was stunned for a moment, until the people in line behind him pushed him away, then he reacted and shouted: “Then I am the one who will become the general, you just watch.
"Hey! Don't push me! My name is Ji Cheng, what's your name?" The boy was pushed back by the crowd, and he jumped and shouted to the girl in front of the crowd.
"Wu Qianning."
…
As time went by, the decline of the Zhou Dynasty gave other countries the opportunity to swallow up this rich land, and wars became more frequent.
The more frequent the wars, the easier it was for soldiers to achieve military merit. Countless young talents emerged, and Ji Cheng was one of them.
But at that time, no one could compare to one doctor, Wu Qianning, who was known as the Fairy Saint Doctor.
Ever since Wu Qianning tasted hundreds of herbs, risked her life to go deep into many epidemics, big and small, and treated countless patients, her good name has spread everywhere in the world.
Her reputation instantly reached its peak when she made all her medical skills available to the world free of charge. Medical clinics from all over the country began to learn Wu Qianning's medical formulas. For a time, the entire Zhou Dynasty reduced its mortality rate by nearly half because of her existence.
As for Ji Cheng, he would go to the local Wu's Clinic every time after the war to see if she was there, but most of the time he would return disappointed.
Until one day during a break, he happened to see Wu Qianning coming to the clinic for inspection. In a panic, he drew his knife and slashed his arm. Covering the wound, he ran to the clinic and asked Wu Qianning to come and see him.
Looking at Wu Qianning who was treating her wound, Ji Cheng asked, "Miss Wu, do you still remember me?"
Wu Qianning said without even looking up, "You've grown taller. Have you become a general?"
Ji Cheng didn't expect that the other party actually still remembered him, and said excitedly: "I'm almost there. I'm already a thousand-man captain. If I have two more, I'll be a vanguard general!"
