New Ficus growing root from it's upper branches

Hi.

I'm completely new to Bonsai trees but have always been interested in them.
Recently, I was given a ficus which I noticed is growing a long root from
one of it's upper branches. It consists of one thin root which then splits
into about 5 more roots, and they're running along the soil. Should I leave
it 'dig in' or not?

Thanks for any advice
