sleepwalking

Chapter 798

Zhang Xu looked at it, and suddenly there was ecstasy in his heart.

Because the ancient covenant was actually mentioned in the book.

The Jaffrey family actually once had an ancient covenant.

Zhang Xu took the book and read it carefully.

As mentioned above, when the princess of the elves married into Jafrey's family, she brought an ancient covenant with her.

The Jaffrey family is a family with the blood of the gods.

The princess from the Elf tribe married and she still reached a high level.

The description of the ancient covenant is very detailed.

Except for the human race, almost all other races have had ancient covenants.

And when these races passed on the ancient covenant, they also avoided humans.

According to what is written in the book.

Whether it is elves, orcs, or goblins, they are all races that cannot have the blood of the gods.

Without the blood of the gods, it is naturally impossible to sign the ancient covenant.

Therefore, they got the covenant of the ancients, so they can only try their best to keep it well, so as not to let the people get it.

Yes, only the human race with the blood of the gods can sign the ancient covenant and command hundreds of races.

Keeping the ancient covenant in rotation is to avoid the human race, and it is also the defense of other races against the human race.

They naturally don't want the ancient covenant to fall into the hands of someone with the blood of the gods, sign it, and then enslave them.

At that time, the princess of the elves brought an ancient covenant to marry and almost caused a war.

Be it the orcs or the goblins, they are all dispatched, wanting to seize the ancient covenant, so as not to be obtained by the Jaffrey family.

A sword master of the Jaffrey family came forward and swore that no one in the Jaffrey family would sign the ancient covenant.

Things calmed down.

Zhang Xu did the math, and this happened about 1 years ago.

Immediately, Zhang Xu sighed: After all, the matter has passed for a long time, and I don't know whose hands the ancient covenant fell into.

Seeing Zhang Xu sighing, Wright asked Zhang Xu.

Zhang Xu thought about it and told Wright the truth.

Wright was surprised.

Zhang Xu went on to say, "I want to get the ancient covenant, and I want to collect it so that races including the human race will not be enslaved. The ancient covenant is safest in my hands."

Lai Te nodded, "Zhang Xu, don't you have a lot of background? For example, some kind of servant of a god?"

Zhang Xu smiled, "You can think so. It's hard to tell you my identity. I didn't hide it from you on purpose. I'll see if I have a chance to tell you later."

Wright patted Zhang Xu on the shoulder, "Okay. I'll talk about it later."

Zhang Xu looked through other books and found that there was no useful information, so he was about to leave.

Wright led Zhang Xu out of the secret room, and went back to the bedroom on the third floor lightly.

Zhang Xu took off his clothes, covered himself with a light duvet, and fell asleep.

The next day, Zhang Xu was awakened by the bright light outside.

When I opened the curtains, I saw that the snow stopped and the sun came out.

The sun shines on the snow, shining white light everywhere, which is a bit dazzling.

The room is also bright.

Zhang Xu got dressed and was about to go out when he heard a knock on the door.

I opened the door and saw breakfast brought by a maid.

The maid spoke, "Master Zhang Xu, in our castle, the master and the guests eat breakfast in their own rooms."

Zhang Xu nodded, "Let's put it down. I'll ask you to clean up after I finish eating."

"Yes." The maid put the breakfast on the table, turned and left.

Zhang Xu took a look, hot milk, bread, bacon, cheese, mashed potatoes, vegetable and fruit salad, very rich.

Zhang Xu was also polite, and started to eat.

After finishing eating, I rang the bell, and the maid came in and cleared away the remaining food and tableware.

While he was thinking about it, the door was pushed open again, and Wright walked in, "Zhang Xu, father said he would take us hunting in the mountains. Let's go together. It's fun."

Zhang Xu smiled: Let's put aside the matter of the ancient covenant and have fun for a few days.Can't live up to Wright's kindness.

Zhang Xu put on short clothes, suitable for horse riding, archery, and hunting, and went down with Wright.

To Zhang Xu's surprise, Lucy, who was only a little over ten years old, followed him.

Lucy was wearing a riding suit, which should be made of sheepskin, tanned into golden yellow, cut and sewn well, and looked very beautiful.

The girl is at a carefree age, and the light blue eyes contain innocence, liveliness, and a smile, which makes people feel very comfortable.

Earl Jaffrey wore a black warrior uniform.

Looks very spiritual too.

When they arrived at the square inside the gate of the castle, someone immediately brought the horses.

Lucy's mount is a filly, which looks very docile and not very tall.

Lord Jaffrey's mount is a unicorn with snow-white fur.

For Zhang Xu, Wright prepared maroon horses, tall and strong.

Earl Jaffrey also brought five guards.

A group of people got on their mounts, the gate of the castle opened, the drawbridge was lowered, and everyone left the castle like a gust of wind.

Out of the castle to the east is a mountain.

Although it is snowing, you can still see some evergreen plants halfway up the mountain.

Although Lucy is small, he is very good at riding, and he is not behind at all.

The horse's hooves landed on the snow, splashing a lot of snow.

In just over 20 minutes, everyone arrived at the foot of the mountain.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, everyone dismounted and led the horses for a walk in the woods.

Earl Jaffrey was very excited and introduced the prey in the woods to Zhang Xu.

A large part of this mountain range is also the territory of Earl Jaffrey.

In other seasons, Earl Jaffrey did not object to the common people in the territory coming here to pick fruits, mushrooms, and wild vegetables.

Just no hunting.

Therefore, the prey in the mountains is very rich.

Before going far, I saw a gray rabbit bouncing around.

Earl Jaffrey looked at Wright, "Wright, you haven't forgotten the archery I taught you, have you? Come, this rabbit, I'll give it to you."

Wright laughed, set up a bow and arrow, and shot at the rabbit.

Sure enough, it hit the rabbit directly on the back.

The rabbit struggled a bit, but died.

Immediately, a guard came forward, picked up the rabbit, and hung it on Wright's horse.

Zhang Xu knows that this is the rule, whoever kills the prey will be hung on his horse. In the end, whoever kills the most prey will be seen.

When I came down, I met some small prey, pheasants, rabbits, roe deer, and foxes.

Even Lucy shot a rabbit.

The harvest is quite rich.

Just when everyone was smiling, they heard a burst of heavy footsteps.

Earl Jaffrey and Wright looked at each other with vigilance and worry in their eyes.

Logically, there shouldn't be such a large beast this season.

From the sound, it might be a huge bear.

At this time, they should be hibernating.

The guards stepped forward and protected Zhang Xu and the other four.

The footsteps approached, and the snow on the branches was shaken so that it "rusted" and fell.

Finally, the thing showed its shape.
