in the ancient last days

Deep mountains and old forests.

A group of elites from Chujiazhuang searched the forest for a long time before they found a cave hidden deep in the forest, which had been transformed into a place suitable for human habitation.

Dumb: "It's really a good way to hide in the woods, there aren't any zombies."

Hong Ping sneered: "It's easy for you to say, idiot. There is no food or drink here. You think it's safe if there are no zombies? You are a beast in the forest and a vegetarian."

As Chu Zhao's only confidant, the two have always looked down upon each other.

The two stared at each other and kept arguing. When the people in the cave heard the voice, they trembled, "Who?...Who is outside?"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound. The dark cave entrance and the simple door made of piles of grass and wood were pushed open, and the head of an old man slowly poked out from inside, looking at them with fear and suspicion.

Expressing his intention, Father Chu exchanged a bag of rice with the other party for the right to borrow the small wooden boat.

Saying goodbye to the old boatman, everyone came to the river with a small wooden boat. There were more than a dozen people from the Chu family village who came to find Father Ye this time. The wooden boat is not big, it can only take four or five people, and it takes three times to go back and forth. , One person needs to control the boat to pick up and drop off.

In the team, there is a man named Chu Hai who has a little experience in handling boats. He was Chu's father's former school boy, and he was sold to the current Chu family's current family to fish for a living.Originally, Chu Zhao and his party wanted the old fisherman to cross the river with them, but the old fisherman refused to do so. They said that they wanted to stay and take care of their grandson.

Anyway, everyone can only give up.

Rolling up his sleeves, Chu Hai put the boat down the shoal and was about to step up. Behind him, Chu Zhao was standing with a knife in his hand. Seeing the faintly green river water, his heart skipped a beat.

"Wait a moment."

Chu Hai was dragged back by Chu Zhao, and his expression was still a little unhappy. It was getting dark, and the group of them was rushing to cross the river.

"What's the matter, master?"

Chu Zhao ignored Chu Hai, but stared at the river closely, his eyes fluctuating. After thinking for a while, he stepped forward and took out a long and thin wooden rope from his backpack, tied it to the bow of the boat and tied a knot, and then stepped down. kick--

I saw the small wooden boat swaying in a circle and drifting slowly towards the center of the river.

"Master..." Chu Hai disapproved, and Chu Zhao reprimanded him in a low voice.

It was so strange, so strange, the nerves in Chu Zhao's brain were screaming and howling, telling him that there was danger ahead.The pain was so painful that Chu Zhao's eyes flashed red light uncontrollably,

Hell, let him see what's weird about the river.

The guards behind him temporarily fell silent under his signal.

The boat continued to drift.

Slowly driving towards the middle of the river, one, two, three...

"Wow!"

With the sound of the violent tumbling waves of the river, everyone's pupils shrank suddenly, and saw a five-meter-long green-skinned giant crocodile jumping out of the water, biting the wooden boat with a big mouthful.

With a sound of "click", the plank could not be broken, the giant crocodile did not taste the taste of flesh and blood, its eyes turned coldly to the river bank, and it swam quickly in the blink of an eye.

"Back, back!"

Shouting loudly, Chu Changqing quickly backed away with her arms around the eldest princess.

Chu Hai's legs were shaking, and he was frightened by the green-skinned crocodile that was swimming fast. Chu Zhao caught him and threw it back with all his strength. Giant crocodile rapid fire.

Forced to calm down, Hong Ping stood by Chu Zhao's side and tried his best not to run away. Be good, he has never seen such a big fish monster before—"Young Master!"

In astonishment, he saw an arrow just hit the crocodile's eye. Before he could rejoice, he found that the speed of the giant crocodile hadn't slowed down at all.

"Damn it, crocodiles hunt by smell, and shooting eyes is useless." Chu Zhao's body speed exploded, holding a person in one hand, and quickly backed away.

Rows of green trees are in the back of sight, and the mutated green crocodile swims to the edge of the land, only to find that the people in Chujiazhuang have retreated a long way, and several people are still shooting arrows at it, wandering back and forth unwillingly, the giant crocodile It took a while to sink to the surface.

The river was still quiet, but this time no one dared to despise it anymore.

Chu Hai looked at Chu Zhao tremblingly: "Young master, thank you for saving my life!"

If he really got everyone on board, he would be a sinner of the Chu family!He himself will not forgive himself!

Waving his hands, Chu Zhao didn't speak. He looked at Lin Zi with heavy eyes. The worst prediction happened. Not only humans, but also animals began to mutate. The survival of the people of Dazhou became more difficult.

Hong Ping has a bad temper: "Why did that old boatman lie to us just now? He said that there is no danger to reassure us, but what happened?! What kind of heart is there? Damn it, I'm going to kill him!"

Everyone is suffocating in their hearts. We ask you for help in a good manner. If you don't agree, then you don't agree. The other party has been a boatman here for more than ten years. He should be more aware of the situation here, but he just watched helplessly. They died in vain.

A group of people turned back and ran towards the forest, wanting to ask for an explanation.

When they arrived, the grandpa and grandson were cooking, and the hot white rice was just a big bag that Father Chu had just given.

Seeing Chu Zhao and the others go back and forth safely, the old boatman's face turned pale.

The little grandson hugged his thigh, looked at the group of people in fear, and said in a crying voice, "What are you going to do? Don't bully my grandpa!"

Hong Ping dragged the old boatman out by his collar: "Cheat us to death, huh?"

The eldest grandson ran forward desperately, punched and kicked the old boatman: "Let go of my grandpa!!"

The old boatman: "Please, you can kill me, but don't kill my grandson. I can tell you whatever you want."

It turns out that the mutated crocodile at the bottom of the river understands human nature. Earlier, the old boatman took his grandson and passengers across the river, and the rest of the passengers were eaten by it at the bottom of the river, but only the grandpa and grandson were left alive. What does that mean? And metaphor.

If the two of them don't follow suit, they will starve to death in this wild forest. The giant crocodile likes to eat people, and there is no other food in the mountains. If it is not for the fish food that the other party throws up from time to time, it is impossible to survive. .

After listening to the old boatman's explanation, everyone in the Chu family village was cold.

"Crocodiles understand human nature, true or false..."

"How can we live in this world? Animals have become monsters."

Hong Ping snorted coldly, the scar on his left eye was fierce, "Sophistry! Old guy, you are just afraid that you will not be able to survive without that big guy. You said that this ghost crocodile controlled you, but it's not like you can't escape, leave Don’t you have to do the job of killing thousands of swords after you come to this place? I see, you all want to seek shelter from this monster in your heart, bah!”

The old boatman Nuonuo remained silent, hugged his grandson tightly and remained silent. As for what he was thinking deep down in his heart, he didn't know.

Everyone didn't know what to do with the old and the young.

"kill him."

A female voice came from behind.

Facing everyone's eyes, the eldest princess remained unmoved, her beautiful face was cold, she stepped forward a few steps and handed Chu Zhao a long sword.

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooth

At this time, the actions of Chu Zhao and others were no different from demons in his eyes.

Chu Zhao took the sword with an unprecedented expression of bewilderment and bewilderment.

The eldest princess: "Zhao'er, this person has committed a lot of evil. I don't know how many people's blood was soaked in the green pond, and he almost killed us here just now. After we leave, there is no guarantee that the other party will not do mischief again. The only plan now is to kill the other party." .”

"Don't be softhearted, kill him."

"I know you can do it. As the leader of the Chu family in the future, it is a big taboo to be soft-hearted." The eldest princess said, looking at her child coldly. satisfy.

What her child currently lacks is only one thing, the pouring of blood—rationality is greater than emotion, blood on the hands, only in this world can they get a longer life, and they are her truly qualified heirs!

Father Chu frowned and then loosened, loosened and then frowned, and finally he let out a long sigh, turned his face away and said nothing.

The eldest princess' subordinates were all staring at the young master.

Boom, boom, boom.

Chu Zhao's heart was pounding, his blood flowed backwards, and the figures of the old boatman and the boy in front of him gradually became blurred.

whose hands are shaking...

Is it mine.

The eldest princess pressed on step by step.

Crying, begging for mercy, and tense breathing sounded in my ears together, Chu Zhao's eyes gradually became blurred, and the long sword was raised high——

"Give you one last chance, where is the way?"

.....

"Being soft-hearted is a big taboo!"

"I don't think my behavior is soft-hearted, just reasonable use."

"A qualified king never does this!"

"Mother," Chu Zhao said indifferently, "I'm just a small young master, and our family has no throne to inherit."

"Nizi!" The eldest princess turned blue with anger, and was hugged and comforted by Chu's father in a friendly voice, "Okay, okay, he doesn't like it when you keep meddling him like this, does he?"

"Keeping one's life alive is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Don't be angry, ah."

Chu Zhao quickly shuttled through the forest, and when he saw the princess beside him, the veterans of the old department gave him a wink, which was probably equivalent to the modern thumbs-up [great].

The corner of his mouth curled up a little, and he turned his face to the side faster.

When everyone came to the bank of the river, there was indeed a wooden cableway hanging on the river, hanging alone high above the river.

The old boatman hugged his grandson, and said in a feeble voice, "No one has abandoned this bridge for many years. I haven't walked across it for a long time. I don't know whether it is safe or not."

Hong Ping suppressed his face, as if he couldn't help but wanted to scold something, but was stopped: "Okay, it's getting dark, the most urgent thing is to hurry across the river."

The rest nodded in agreement.

So the big guys boarded the bridge cable one by one, and carefully prepared to cross the bridge.

The wooden bridge has been abandoned all the year round, and the creaking sound can be heard when stepping on it, which makes people feel palpitating. Fortunately, the wooden boards are still strong. When the first person crossed the bridge smoothly, people on the other side of the river began to relax.

Under the bridge is a peaceful green pond, and above the bridge is a cloudless sky. Every second is passing by quickly. Everyone dared not delay any longer and stepped up to board the wooden bridge.

Although there was a quarrel just now, Chu Zhao still stood on the right side of the eldest princess, and together with Chu's father protected the eldest princess and moved forward cautiously.

Seven or eight meters below the wooden bridge, the river began to churn, and the eldest princess's heart trembled, and she grabbed Chu Zhao's hand tightly.

"boom!"

The river broke open in an instant!

The giant crocodile broke through the water and stared eerily at the few people crossing the river above them.

One of the guards didn't pay attention, his foot slipped and he stepped on the ground, most of his body just slipped off the bridge and fell straight down.

"Be careful!" Chu Zhao grabbed the man's hand and pulled it up forcefully.

"Young master!" The guard burst into tears, clutching at his life-saving straw.

The giant crocodile below was not reconciled, opened its mouth and jumped up. The guard felt his trousers were cold, but he didn't dare to look, his eyes were full of panic.

Chu Zhao squeezed the guard's one-handed joint so hard that it turned white. After undergoing blood transformation, his physical strength increased greatly. He shouted loudly, and finally lifted the guard up straight with one hand, but he didn't know if he was using too much force. The wooden boards were overwhelmed, and there was a cracking sound.

Chu Zhao was taken aback,

It fell directly from mid-air.

"Do not--!"

Shouting heart-piercingly, the Eldest Princess turned pale, holding on to the wooden rope and looking down, except for the bloody mouth of the mutated crocodile, all she saw was a bottomless cold pool.
