in the ancient last days

The furnishings in the room are simple, only a layered animal skin is draped on a wooden chair, and the eldest princess is wearing a red dress, stroking the long sword intently under the candlelight.

The slender blade of the sword was as fierce as the snow-white light reflected by the wolf's teeth, and her movements were gentle, as if she was caressing her lover.

This is what Chu Zhao saw when he walked in.

"Zhao'er is here?" The eldest princess smiled all over her face, obviously very happy to see her son.

Chu Zhao: "Is this sword just brought up?"

The eldest princess: "That's right, it is made by Tie Ying's method of iron smelting, poured with red water, and the blade is so sharp that it can be broken by blowing hair. It is a good sword that kills people without blood."

Chu Zhao drank tea silently, not understanding the other party's obsessive expression as if he saw some treasure.He thinks that his short crossbow and dagger work well together, one for long-distance attack and the other for melee combat. If he really wants to make him as happy as the eldest princess, he needs at least a banqui snake hand/spear.

One shot explodes a zombie head, handsome.

In front, after touching for a while reluctantly, the eldest princess finally handed him the sword: "Take it."

Chu Zhao was surprised, and it was really given to him, so he quickly refused: "Mother, I don't need it, you can use this sword."

The eldest princess: "Although your short dagger is good for melee combat, it is too dangerous after all. The bow and arrow will always be used up one day. Mother is for your own good. Think about your second uncle and Ji Daxia, how they look like when they use swords? If you can Learning them for half a point is enough for you to suffer endlessly."

Dare to let him steal the teacher.

It seems that Ji Zhen's swordsmanship is really strong in everyone's eyes. Chu Zhao laughed, thought for a while, and still refused: "No need, have you forgotten my spells?"

As he spoke, he flipped his palm, and the teacup in his palm disappeared immediately, and when Chu Zhao pinched his fingers, the exquisite teacup appeared out of thin air.

The eldest princess was dumbfounded, and in the end she could only shake her head and laugh, and stopped persuading him, but brought up another matter.

Smiling, he said, "Now that Zhuangzi has almost settled down, when are you going to think about the important things in your life?"

"Pfft..." Chu Zhao almost spit out a mouthful of water.

The eldest princess continued nagging, and by the way, she pulled out a bunch of portraits of women for him.

"At your age, your father and I are pregnant with you. If I were in the capital before, I wouldn't tell you these things. At that time, few people dared to enter the muddy water of our family, but now you don't know about Zhuangzi's territory and benefits. See, such a good place, how many people can’t come across it.”

Although the doomsday disaster is coming, some powerful families will not be easily knocked down.

Their forces are intertwined in the Great Zhou, and some have even been rooted for hundreds of years. action.

According to the eldest princess, these aristocratic daughters must have disdained the Chu family when she was imprisoned, but now that the disaster of corpses is flooding, it is the time when everyone is watching and helping each other. She feels that these well-educated, upright and beautiful families The noble ladies may not have thoughts about the Chu family.

Besides, Chu Zhao crawled out of her stomach, how bad could it be?

Taking a step back, she carefully looked up and down Chu Zhao's handsome face. The eldest princess smiled with satisfaction, as if she could already see the appearance of those reserved noble girls being fascinated by her children.

Chu Zhao immediately shook his head and refused. How old is he? He was a high school student who was still in school in his previous life, but now he is regarded as an old leftover man by his mother?

The eldest princess advised him.

Chu Zhao pretended not to hear.

The attitude is firm, and feudal arranged marriages are not accepted anyway.

The person on the opposite side suddenly became anxious, and he didn't want this or that, when did Chu Zhao's vision become so high?

He couldn't choose what to say for a while: "You don't still think about that child Jing Ling, do you? It's impossible for you!"

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Even the sound of the needle falling on the ground was audible, and the eldest princess seemed to know that she had said something wrong, so she immediately fell silent.

Chu Zhao has not heard this name for a long time, his body stiffened, and after a while, he put down the teacup and said slowly: "No, it's not because of him... If... I meet a suitable one in the future, I will Accepted."

The eldest princess breathed a sigh of relief, as long as she wasn't thinking about the one in the capital.Seeing that Chu Zhao's complexion was not good, he changed the subject as if nothing had happened: "Then what do you like, my mother will help you find out."

Chu Zhao: "Whatever."

After thinking for a while, he touched the teacup and said, "Be nice."

If it is someone he likes, he will try his best to love the other party, but if it is only because of a suitable reason, he has very simple requirements for the other party, only one: don't cling to others, and don't interfere in his private affairs.

This topic made Chu Zhao feel as if getting off the seat was like a needle point, so he got up in a hurry: "Mom, I have something to deal with, so I will leave first, and I will come to find you another day."

He walked straight, not paying attention to the environment and almost ran into someone.

The shimmering light poured from the branches of the forest, and a few wisps of shimmering light rendered the wooden corridor golden yellow. It turned out that Ji Zhen was standing by the veranda, staring at the little bird on the big tree.

After he returned with his followers and the Chu family, he was placed in the mansion. Because he saved Uncle Ye, he was honored as a guest of honor by everyone in the Chu family village, and now he lives in a courtyard not far from Chu Zhao.

"Chirp!" The little yellow ball on the branch shook its wings and yelled down, its small eyes like black beans were clear and bright.Originally, it rolled on the tree with Wowo in its mouth, but when it saw Chu Zhao under the tree, it immediately flew down with its small wings.

Chu Zhao didn't look at the road, and just bumped into Ji Zhen's chest.

"Excuse me, are you alright?"

Something, soft, Chu Zhao subconsciously touched forward, his wrist was grabbed, and a muffled groan sounded, and he found that Ji Zhen's breathing was a bit rough.

He couldn't see the expression under the mask of the other party, and Chu Zhao didn't know if the other party was injured, so he wanted to help him take another look, but the other party took a step back.

"It's okay." The voice was hoarse.

....You don't look like you're okay.

Chu Zhao rubbed his fingertips, but he hadn't recovered from the softness just now. Could it be that the other party was wearing several layers of clothes?

Li Li apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention when I was walking just now."

Ji Zhen's chest hurts from being bumped, it's a very sensitive place, and seeing the tall young man staring at it thoughtfully, Ji Zhen's fingertips trembled, her eyes wet with shame.

A large area of ​​skin near the base of the ear also turned crimson.

Chu Zhao looked at the other party, and the more he looked at it, the more weird he felt: "Have we met somewhere?"

Ji Zhen: "No!"

"?" Such a big reaction?

Staring at the suspicious eyes above her head, Ji Zhen took a step back and said in a hoarse voice: "This is the first time I met Shaojun in Changzhou."

Chu Zhao nodded. With the temperament and voice of the other party, it is impossible for him not to be impressed if he has seen it.

But... "It seems that Mr. Ji has been wearing this mask since we met. Is there any inconvenience?"

Ji Zhen took a deep breath: "It's disfigured."

"..." Chu Zhao said, "Sorry."

"It's ok."

The white-clothed swordsman was still standing one meter away from him, as if he was some kind of frightening scourge.

It seems a little too much to poke people's sore spots.

Chu Zhao was a little embarrassed, turned around and waved to the little yellow ball on the tree, and walked away in a desperate manner.

The little yellow ball was round and smelt of grass, and shrank into Chu Zhao's arms, staring at him like black gemstones, staring at him without blinking.

Chu Zhao sighed.

After walking far away, I couldn't help but hugged the other party and met its eyes: "I just said something wrong?"

"Chichi." Little Yellow Ball tilted her head, her face full of ignorance and innocence.
