  Seeing his worried look, Gong Sun Zan let out a long sigh and said: "Xun Zhen, don't worry, once I'm healed from my injuries, I'll gather several thousand white horse volunteers to accompany you to Qiao County.

  Sun Yu was overjoyed, but after a moment's thought, he felt something was not quite right. To the south of Gongsun Zan was Yuan Shao. If Gongsun Zan were to lead his troops south...Yuan Shao would never allow him to pass through his territory so easily. When the time came, Yan Liang and Wen Chou would come out to block their way, and he wouldn't have enough lives to lose.

  It seems that I still need to strengthen my power, otherwise I won't be able to move freely in this world. However, as for how to strengthen my power, Sun Yu was completely at a loss and could only take things one step at a time.

  In the following days, Sun Yu accompanied Gong Sunzhan to chat and saw her injuries getting better day by day. Seven days later, tens of thousands of White Horse Righteous Army led by Gong Sunzhan's second sister, Gong Sunyue, rushed to Zhuoxian to protect their lord, with Yan Guang and Tian Yu both in the army.

  Everyone felt like they were reborn when they saw each other. Yan Gang and Tian Yu saluted Sun Yu with a fist, their eyes filled with gratitude and deep admiration for his character.

  It was learned from Gongsun Yue that the Wuhuan army had withdrawn north of Youzhou and fled to a place north of the Great Wall. It seems that this time, the Wuhuan were frightened by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and did not dare to come again for a short time.

  Sun Yu felt more and more that martial arts were the foundation of survival in this world, so he forced Zhao Yun to take a small bamboo spear every day and practice spear techniques in the courtyard.

  Poor Zhao Yun didn't know why Sun Yu insisted on her practicing spear, so she gritted her teeth and held the weak and powerless small hands, swinging the bamboo spear. As long as she stopped for a moment, Sun Yu would glare at her fiercely.

  This evil act of forcing the little girl to practice archery quickly spread throughout Gongsun Zan's army, and both Yan Gang and Tian Yu couldn't bear it. The two men repeatedly came to persuade Sun Yu to spare the little girl, but Zhao Yun was Sun Yu's maid, belonging to his private property, and others didn't dare to interfere too much.

  Yan Gang thought Zhao Yun was really pitiful, one day he couldn't help but say to Sun Yu: "Seeking Truth Mr., since you insist on having Zhao Yun practice spear techniques, why not let me teach her? I'm after all a 'Spear General', following me to learn is still better than her waving a bamboo pole around."

  Unexpectedly, Sun Yu immediately refused. He thought Zhao Yun should be at least the level of "Gun God", and there was no reason to follow "Gun General" to practice, lest a good general be trained in reverse. So poor Zhao Yun had to practice his bamboo spear alone, with hardly any rest time every day.

  If there was a crime of child abuse in this world, Sun Yu would have been put behind bars long ago.

  Zhao Yun practiced his spear technique again today and leaned against a tree to rest, feeling sore all over.

  Sun Yu suddenly took a giant hammer and walked into the yard, facing Zhao Yun: "Zilong, take your bamboo spear to stab me! Let's practice together."

  "Ah?" Zhao Yun was shocked, her small white hands shaking wildly in mid-air as she repeatedly said: "I don't want to, Master Zhen is too formidable, I dare not spar with you."

  "Cut the crap! If you can't beat me, you won't be having dinner tonight!" Sun Yu pulled out his trump card.

  Zhao Yun heard that there was no food to eat, and his head drooped down instantly. He said pitifully: "Then let's practice, but... how can I possibly beat Master Xunzhen? Waaah, definitely no dinner tonight."

  "Don't cry, come and attack quickly." Sun Yu felt very sorry for Zhao Yun, but in order to bring out his general skills, he had to pretend to be very fierce.

  Zhao Yun took a glance at Sun Yu, fearfully raised his bamboo spear and thrust it over, but this thrust was soft and weak, completely unorthodox. Sun Yu swung the large hammer in his hand, and Zhao Yun was shaken back five or six steps along with his spear.

  "Sir, my hand hurts so much." Zhao Yun cried: "I really won't fight."

  "Cut the crap and keep fighting." Sun Yu said with a hard heart: "If you can't hit me today, you won't have dinner."

  Zhoa Yun puffed out his chest, raised his spear and stabbed again, but was once more beaten back by Sun Yu.

  After continuing for about two hours, Zhao Yun finally ran out of energy. She threw down her bamboo spear and lay on the ground, bursting into loud sobs.

  Alas, bullying a little loli, the guilt in his heart was real. Sun Yu let out a sigh and said: "Forget it, I've changed my mind, you can eat instead."

  "Really?" Zhao Yun's face was streaming with tears, but upon hearing that there was food to eat, she immediately stopped crying.

  "It's true, oh dear, let's take a break and have some food." Sun Yu put down the large hammer and thought with a mixture of frustration and curiosity: "What method can I use to bring out Zhao Yun's martial arts skills? If she becomes stronger, for example... becoming a 'gun god'... I wouldn't be afraid to travel the world with her. But then again, what kind of martial arts skill will Zhao Yun have? It's really making me curious."

  At this time, a figure suddenly flashed at the gate of the courtyard. An old woman with a spirited appearance walked to the gate of Sun Yu's courtyard and said loudly: "May I ask if someone is home? Zheng Xuan from Beihai has come to visit!" The old woman had white hair and eyebrows, her face was full of wind and frost, but she was in high spirits, with a strong and rugged demeanor. Just by looking at her appearance, one could tell that she was a learned scholar.

  Sun Yuxin was curious, Zheng Xuan? Who is he? I've never heard of him before.

  "Zheng Xuan, styled Kangcheng, was a native of Gaomi in Beihai. He was one of the most renowned Confucian scholars of his time and a master of classical studies during the late Han dynasty. His disciples were all over the country. He was a fellow student and close friend of Lu Zhi, and could be considered as the uncle of Gongsun Zan's teacher. In addition, in the novel 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms', Liu Bei once became his disciple, but this is not recorded in historical records."

  Sun Yu listened to NM01's introduction and thought to himself, "Looks like he's a very impressive person."

  He walked up to the gate and said loudly: "Student Sun Yu, may I ask what brings Teacher Zheng here?"

  Zheng Xuan chuckled and said, "I've been traveling all over the world, passing through Zhuo County, so I thought I'd come visit my old friend Lu Zhi. Unexpectedly, after searching high and low, I couldn't find him. I heard that Lu Zhi's disciple Gongsun Zan is temporarily staying here, so I came to ask about my old friend's news, don't be disturbed."

  "It turned out to be looking for the master." Sun Yu hurriedly smiled and welcomed Zheng Xuan in. In front of outsiders, he didn't dare call Guan Zhong "Bo Gui", but still honestly called her "master".

  Zheng Xuan walked into the courtyard with a hearty laugh, although he was a renowned Confucian scholar of his time, he had no airs about him, just like an energetic and spirited old lady, walking in with a kind face.

  As soon as he entered the yard, Zheng Xuan saw Zhao Yun who was pitifully waving his hand.

  "What is this little girl doing?" Zheng Xuan asked curiously.

  Sun Yu smiled awkwardly: "Our family's little maid, although she has talent, can't use martial arts skills, I'm training her now."

  Zheng Xuan listened to this and curiously sized up Zhao Yun with a glance, looking left and right before shaking his head and laughing: "This woman's bones are fragile, her innate physique is too poor. Even if she has martial skills, it would be hard for her to exert great power - her body can't withstand it."

  Sun Yu heard this and was a bit skeptical, thinking: Although this world is very different from mine, the strengths and weaknesses of famous generals have not deviated much, Zhao Yun must be strong.

  Zheng Xuan saw that he was not convinced and did not say much more, slowly shaking his head as he walked into the house to look for Gongsun Zan.
