Chapter 24-Smart disciple

As usual Yin Yue met her uncle on the weekend.After normal greetings, they went to their training place at the riverside.Wang Wei checked her progress of training by checking few moments and giving some exercises to check her stamina and agility .He could see that she had improved for better more than before.

When Wang Wei was in capital ,he had bought some equipments which would be necessary for training her further.He decided to continue their practice in the evening with the help of those equipments and things.

He continued teaching her another few exercises and basic martial arts movements because still she was not strong enough to practice martial arts totally .Yet they needed to start at least.

At noon, as always, they had their meal in the usual inn.After that,again at their training place,Wang Wei checked the success level of Yin Yue's homeworks.She handed over the documents which contained her work

with anticipation.Firstly he checked the map of magistrate's house which made by Yin Yue.She had followed all the instructions he gave and had done a satisfactory job except for a few shortcomings .

Then Wang Wei checked her information collection.It was the moment he was surprised.All the papers were covered with Yin Yue's neat and beautifully written letters but when reading ,they looked like poems or normal descriptions.

Wang Wei couldn't figure out any special information at first as he expected.He looked at Yin Yue with a questioning look in his eyes.

"miss ,have you mistakenly brought wrong documents as your home work?he asked Yin Yue.

"no uncle, these are the right documents"Yin Yue replied.

Wang Wei looked and read a few documents again but he could only see poems.There was no any news about the magistrate's family members as he asked Yin Yue to find.

"Then miss can you explain...."

when Wang Wei was about to ask Ying Yue to explain the contents of the documents she presented, a thought suddenly came to his mind.

"Miss..perhaps..have you used a code in writing the information ? he asked with disbelief .

"yes uncle"Yin Yue said nodding her head.

"I thought that even by chance, if my documents were discovered by someone, I won't be suspected for anything if I used a method like this."she explained further.

Wang Wei was pleasantly surprised at her explanation.

"The secret methods which use to hide the important information and maintain intelligence services" it was the lesson he intended to teach Yin Yue today but she had surprised him by figuring it out herself.What surprised him the most was how she had hidden the information with her poetry skills.A normal person would never guess those poems were a collection of information about a family.

Wang Wei knew his young miss was intelligent and a fast learner but he didn't guessed that she would be using her intelligence this smartly as a merely nine years old girl.

"Miss, can you tell me the code to recover the information?"

he asked.

"uncle,every third and fourth word indicates the real information "she explained .According to her explanation ,he started reading .He could discover that she had paid attention to every aspect of a person when collecting information about magistrate's family members .

Their general appearance ,approximate height,weight,special marks like birth marks which are visible,special personal traits,education ,habits ,preferred foods,drinks,even the lady's preferred kind of perfume...everything she could find about them were included in her description.After reading those description, Wang Wei was satisfied with her information collecting skills.As a beginner she had done a great job.What he had left to do was to sharpen her skills a little more.

"Because miss has done a great job completing your homeworks ,I have a little present for miss."Wang Wei said with a smile.He handed over a long and slightly heavy parcel to Yin Yue.She unwrapped it with curiosity to discover a wooden sword.It was about three feet in length and was not very heavy.Wang Wei saw Yin Yue's eyes were brighten instantly .

"And I have an another surprise for you,miss"Wang Wei said, arousing Yin Yue's curiosity .
