Chapter 27: The Past of the Chu Family

Chu Ze had insomnia, lying on the bed tossing and turning and unable to sleep, his first friend who came to Datang, found his goal in life, and joined the army. Brother Chu Qing is busy with bean sprouts every day, full of energy, with a smile on his face all day long, the girl is carefree and plays happily every day, and the people around her have their own things to do. And what about yourself, basking in the sun every day and doing nothing, where is your life?

After coming to Datang for so long, Chu Ze always had an attitude of witnessing history, but he never thought of joining it, and he had to get by, he never worked hard, making bean sprouts, writing poems, and making wine, all of which were forced by the situation, and he never took the initiative to do anything, in his previous life, he fought on the battlefield and shrouded in horse leather, why is he so decadent now? I have dreamed of returning to the ancient battlefield countless times, riding a white horse, a spear, and a white robe. How high-spirited he is, but now, he has crossed over to the Tang Dynasty, why has he become the way he is now? Chu Ze thought about it a lot, and didn't fall asleep until dawn in the east, this night's moonlight was as cold as ice, shining on his body, straight to the bottom of his heart!

On the second day, Chu Ze woke up as soon as he was young, came to the courtyard and practiced boxing, and then sat at the door in a daze, staring blankly into the distance. Chu Mu passed by a few times, but Chu Ze didn't react, and his current appearance frightened Chu Mu.

"Ze'er, what's wrong with you?"

"Ze'er?"

"Ze'er!"

Chu Mu shouted eagerly on the side, and it wasn't until the third sound that Chu Ze reacted, shook his body, looked at the anxious Chu Mu standing on the side and said, "Ah, mother? What's wrong? ”

"Ze'er, I saw you fascinated just now, but is there anything wrong?"

Chu Mu was worried in her heart, and she couldn't help but speak faster, and her eyes were full of worry and looked at Chu Ze.

Chu Ze's heart warmed and said, "Mother, the child is fine, it's just that some things can't be written for a while, so I'm a little distracted, don't worry about mother." ”

"Ze'er, because I can't think about something, talk to my mother, and my mother will consult with you in detail."

Seeing that Chu's mother looked at herself with concern, Chu Ze thought about it and said what was hidden in his heart, "Mother, the child has been thinking, what are people living for?" My brother works hard every day, but he enjoys it. The child's friend Cheng Chuliang is also going to the barracks to join the army today, but the child has nothing to do every day, like a headless fly, unable to find a direction. ”

Mother Chu looked at the frustrated Chu Ze, smiled slightly, and touched Chu Ze's head with her hand, "Ze'er, come with your mother." After Mother Chu finished speaking, she took Chu Ze's hand and entered the door.

Chu Mu took out a blue package from the box, put it in front of Chu Ze and said, "Ze'er, kneel." ”

Chu Ze knelt on the ground as he said, but there was a lot of confusion in his eyes.

When the package was opened, there were several tablets inside. "Ze'er, do you know who these tablets are?" Chu Mu looked at Chu Zedao, her voice mixed with memories.

"The child doesn't know, please let the mother know!"

"Ze'er, this tablet is the ancestor of our Chu family, now that you have grown up and sensible, you should know some things, today my mother will tell you about the past of the Chu family."

Chu Ze didn't understand what else happened to the Chu family, and looked at Chu's mother in confusion.

Chu's mother looked at Chu Ze and said, "This tablet belongs to your great-grandfather, the old lady was the general under the account of Chen Qingzhi, the famous 'white-robed general' in the Southern Liang Army, and followed General Chen to fight in the south and the north, "This second tablet is your grandfather's, the old man was the general of the account of Wu Jianzhang, one of the nine elders of the former Sui Kai Dynasty, and the official was the general of Zuo Wuhou, and was implicated in the incident of scolding Yang Guang in the Golden Palace of Wu Jianzhang, the king of loyalty and filial piety, and our Chu family was almost beheaded in that incident, Your father relied on the protection of the old man's former men to escape to this level! ”

Mother Chu paused, looked at Chu Ze, eased her emotions for a moment, and then said, "This third piece is your father's tablet, after your father fled to Guanzhong, he thought that revenge was hopeless, and he was depressed, and he drank and got drunk all day long. Until the world was in turmoil, and the righteous people in the world rose up against the Sui one after another, your father joined the army, and later won the appreciation of the King of Qin, and followed His Royal Highness the King of Qin to fight in the south and the north, but he was just a villain on the battlefield. ”

After Mother Chu said this, she thought of her deceased husband, her eyes turned red, and she snorted in a low voice and said, "I think our Chu family was also a famous general, but it was only in your generation that it reached such a point, when your brother was young, your father also wanted to teach your brother martial arts, and in the future, he would join the army to repay the Li family's kindness to your father, but your brother had no talent and had to give up, your father pinned his hopes on you, but before you grew up, so..."

Chu Mu couldn't go on, she sobbed quietly, Chu Ze stood up, wiped the tears from her cheeks for Chu Mu and said, "Mother, don't be sad and sad, it's all over." ”

Mother Chu sorted out her emotions, looked at Chu Ze and said, "When Ze'er grows up, my mother also thought about telling you this, but at that time, you were bent on studying and gaining fame, so you had to do it." My mother said this for you today for nothing else, but today I listened to what you asked, and my mother recently watched you get up early every day to play that boxing technique, and she didn't pay much attention to the county study and study, so she decided to tell you this, you have also grown up, and it is time for you to know some things. ”

After Chu Mu said this, she looked at Chu Ze from the side, as if she was waiting for Chu Ze to make a decision!

Chu Ze lowered his head and thought in his heart: "It turns out that I am still a famous general!" Looking at the earnest gaze of Chu Mu beside him, and thinking of his dream in his previous life, Chu Ze finally made a decision in his heart at this moment, I will be Datang Chu Ze in the future, since I can never go back, I will break out of this Datang world! The passing of the Chu family is shocked by me, Chu Ze! The former glory of the Chu family, I, Chu Ze, will regain it! ”

Raising his head, he looked at Mother Chu firmly, "Mother, the child knows what to do, but in this family?" ”

"Ze'er has decided, go on with your heart! Things at home, Ze'er doesn't have to worry about it, everything is still your brother, my mother is waiting for my son's return at home! ”

After saying that, Chu Mu took out another package from the box and said, "Ze'er, this is the armor that your father wore when he was alive, and it is called the silver armor of the night that was passed down by your grandfather. What is recorded in this book is the ancestral marksmanship of our Chu family, which is said to have evolved from the Seven Snake Disc Gun, and is now handed over to you. ”

Chu Ze hurriedly stepped forward to take it, and was about to speak, but Chu Mu opened his mouth first.

"The spear used by your father before his death is called Gentian Bright Silver Spear, which is also handed down by the ancestors of our Chu family, under the mother's bed, you can also take it out, and I hope that Ze'er can make contributions in the future and not insult the blood of my Chu family!"

Chu Ze knelt down again, kowtowed three times at the tablet, stood up, and said with a firm gaze: "The child must go all out to reshock my Chu family's former majesty, live up to his mother's high hopes, and live up to his father's spirit in the sky!" ”

Chu Mu nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's good that Ze'er can have this heart!" ”

Holding the gentian bright silver spear in his hand, Chu Ze felt a chill, the body of the spear was made of mixed iron and steel, one zhang and one foot three, and the head of the spear was in the shape of a gilded tiger's head. Chu Ze had to sigh that the ancient skills were exquisite, it seemed that it would take some effort to create such spears in later generations, not to mention that in ancient times when productivity was seriously insufficient, in the change of feudal social dynasties, many valuable technologies, because of improper preservation, have long been extinguished in the long river of history!

I tried to put the armor on my body, it just fitted, the armor was made of small iron rings, forming a long coat with a hood, covering the outside of the close-fitting clothing, all the weight was borne by the shoulders, I tried to do a few movements, and it was not as heavy as Chu Ze imagined, Chu Ze didn't dare to wear this dress to Chang'an City now, and then took off the armor and cleaned it up.
