in the ancient last days

Another bright morning in Xincheng.

Since the soldiers of Xincheng captured the mutant beasts from outside the city, some subtle changes have taken place in the city.

The potted plants and vegetable leaves in front of the common people's gates, besides attracting the big white goose family to patronize, now welcome a wave of new "customers".

The docile deer boldly bends down to eat grass, and sometimes looks wetly at the owner of the house.

"Please, eat more." The girl covered her red face and said, she couldn't help but lower her voice slowly, the wife is so cute, compared to the domineering goose, she is so obedient—come and eat her One hundred people would like to cook at home!

A ferocious couple of coyotes, a male and a female, are eager to hit the streets on foot.

It was rare for Hong Ping and Du Hu to put aside their estrangement and hug each other's thighs: "Don't, don't, you will scare people when you go out on the street—Master, let's go, let's take you to the back mountain to play!"

Groups of golden monkeys, goats... many mutated animals have become another strange sight in the new city.

Looking down from a high altitude, this scene of people and animals getting along is wonderful and harmonious.

"Maybe they are so anxious because I have to leave." Chu Zhao said silently, looking down at the scenes in the city.

Seeing the soldiers in Xincheng working hard, they persevered in cultivating their tacit understanding with the mutant beasts.

Yang Lingzhi shook his head: "Young Master, you don't have to blame yourself. I believe, whether you decide to leave, Young Master, they will do so. For the sake of the new city, it is their responsibility to work hard to become stronger."

"And why do they believe that they can fight with mutant beasts? It's because of you, Shaojun, you and Master Mao." Yang Lingzhi smiled.

Chu Zhao was taken aback, and the fat man lying on his shoulder meowed in agreement, as if responding to Yang Lingzhi's words.

The reason why everyone believed in these mutant beasts without hesitation was because of Chu Zhao and their young master.Together with Pangpang, he created a miracle in the new city. People who believed in the young masters also believed in these mutant beasts. In time, they would surely become the backbone of the new city and guard their home together with the soldiers of the new city.

"So that's how it is." Muttered, Chu Zhao smiled slowly, his eyes under the eyebrows were gentle.

On the day Shaojun left, the weather was just right, and everyone in Xincheng came out to see him off, watching their Shaojun set off, and he was about to fly away to the unknown north with the snow sculpture.

Behind him stood a group of backbone confidants trained by Xincheng.

"Lingzhi, I will leave the matter of the new city to you." Chu Zhao said, "There is no problem in controlling the general direction of the new city with your ability."

"If it is necessary to cooperate with Cui's people when it is dangerous, Cui Jiabu's ability is very extraordinary."

Yang Lingzhi smiled: "Yes, Lingzhi will wait for the young master to come back, and wish the young master a smooth journey and a safe return!"

"Cousin, don't you really need us to follow you? I'm very skilled in medicine now, I can..." Ye Ling was very reluctant. This seemed to be Chu Zhao's first time traveling alone.

"No need," Chu Zhao turned his head and smiled at him, and said, "The purpose of going to Youzhou this time is for rescue, and also to deceive people, so we can't bring too many people."

"I hope cousin, you can help me protect it together with Second Uncle and the others in Xincheng."

Being called cousin for the first time, Ye Ling was stunned for a while, then stammered: "For example, if this is what you want."

"Yes, yes, cousin," Ye Ling squirmed his lips: "I said some bad things to Ji Shaoxia before... I think I need to apologize to you."

"You tell him this apology when he comes back."

Chu Zhao's eyes slowly scanned around behind him, Uncle A, Ye's father and son, Hong Ping Dahu... Finally, his eyes fell on the princess and his wife: "Father, mother, I'll go now!" gone."

With tears in her eyes, the eldest princess took a deep breath: "Let's go, do what you want to do, don't regret it, we will always be your backing!"

His eyes were a little sore, Chu Zhao took a step back, and turned onto Chayue's back.

Yong Ye: "Young Master, let's set off."

"Let's go." Chu Zhao said in a low voice. Chasing the moon received the order, spread his huge wings, and slowly rose into the sky.

Below, someone from Xincheng suddenly shouted loudly.

"Young Master, have a safe journey!"

"Be sure to come back soon!"

"Young Master—we'll wait for you—"

The enthusiastic shouts, one after another, gradually became smaller as the chasing moon lifted off.Chu Zhao waved his hand downward vigorously, until finally his figure completely turned into a small black dot, which could never be seen again.

***

Chu Zhao and the others flew to Youzhou on a white eagle all the way, passing through the territory of the Nan clan, they paid special attention, and found that someone was counting soldiers at the city gate, and countless slaves were driven out to serve as cannon fodder.

Is this preparing for the attack on the new city?

Seeing the slaves with numb faces and ragged and gray clothes from a high altitude, Chu Zhao frowned tightly: "If they do this, isn't there any rebel army to resist?"

"Yes, why not, but without weapons to contend with the barracks, everything is futile." Regarding these things, Yong Ye and Yong Feng's attitudes are a little indifferent, perhaps because they have seen them a lot in Youzhou.

Chu Zhao narrowed his eyes slowly: "Weapons, these things have always been kept in the garrison camp."

Yong Ye thought about it, and immediately understood what Chu Zhao wanted to do: "Young Master...do you want to?"

Chu Zhao: "They are all here, why not give them a surprise before leaving."

Nan's Weapons Institute.

Several soldiers with long knives were practicing sparring in the open space. Unbeknownst to them, the tent was lifted quietly, and the three of them sneaked in silently.

Chu Zhao waved his hand, and the tent was full of thousands of weapons, all of which disappeared in an instant. Yong Ye and Yong Feng, who saw this scene for the first time, slowly widened their eyes in astonishment.

After weighing the number of cold weapons in the space, Chu Zhao squinted his eyes in a good mood.

"Let's go, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, give our 'good friend' a gift."

The headquarters of the rebel army, where a small-scale rebellion was prepared two days ago, but it was quickly suppressed ruthlessly. The bloody facts told them that without weapons, relying solely on human flesh pads is completely impossible.

Once again, the painful groans of the companions filled the base camp.

The leader Yue Sanwang sat on the stone steps, anxious and tired.

A few more brothers were captured and tortured yesterday, but even so, no information about the location of the rebel army was revealed, and he couldn't do anything while watching this scene.As a leader, this is useless, Zhao Sanwang feels sorry for everyone, sorry for these brothers who abandoned everything to follow him.

He used to be just an ordinary person who made a living by farming. When the end came, the fields were occupied, and he changed from a man who could stand to a slave who could only kneel on the ground.

Not enough to eat, not to wear warm clothes, but also to be enslaved and beaten by those superior people like animals.If it's just like this, Yue Sanwang can accept anything in order to survive. It wasn't until that day, when his beloved died completely, that he finally understood that a person whose spine has been punctured can't stand up no matter what.

For the sake of thousands of people who have suffered like him, Yue Sanwang is determined to make a change——

But the current situation told him bloody, how easy is it to change?

So far, the uprising has failed several times. They do not have powerful weapons and can only be slaughtered. Now that the Nan clan wants to initiate a war with Xincheng, they are the cannon fodder who will bear the brunt. Yue Sanwang no longer knows what will happen next. How should the road go.

Wiping his face and sighing, he got up and prepared to go back to the house.

At this time, a young soldier in gray and black and ragged clothes hurried out from inside.

"Boss, boss, oh my god, go and have a look inside!"

"Oh my god, Grandpa Jade Emperor has appeared!"

Yue Sanwang was shocked, what's going on, could their base be discovered?

Hastily walked to the back room.

"This is--"

Looking at a room full of iron weapons that appeared out of thin air, filling the entire room——

His mouth slowly opened.

At this moment, there is only one thought passing through my mind, could it really be... the apparition of gods?

After traveling for several days, Chu Zhao finally arrived in Youzhou.

Different from the scene in the new city, the climate in Youzhou is harsher, icy cold, and the north wind is blowing coolly. The trees are bare at first glance, and a thin layer of snow covers the vast land.

Get off Zhuiyue's back, stroked its head, and docilely rubbed against Chu Zhao, the fat man in his arms suddenly let out a somewhat unhappy cry, and his ears pricked up.

Chu Zhao also touched it.

"Young Master, this is for you, it belongs to His Highness." Yong Ye said, handing him a mask.

Chu Zhao took it, the delicate silver half face, the pattern on the mask was familiar yet unfamiliar, he slowly clenched it, his fingertips trembling slightly.

That person's breath lingered on it unreservedly, as if it still carried the remaining warmth, spreading to the tip of the heart.

The author has something to say: come, come, (*╯3╰)

Chu Zhao: That’s right, the little fairy is me! (kimbo)

Author: Don't be beautiful, you are about to cry.
