"Since you like it, then be bold and chase it. Zhou Ping smiled and said, "Don't let down other girls, understand?"

Zhang Xiaoyue blushed and nodded, no longer having the previous arrogance.

After a few people chatted for a while, Zhang Xiaoyue and Zhang Hanzhong returned to the town, and now the two of them have a lot of industries in the city, and they can't leave people.

As the sun set, Zhou Ping and Chu Ci cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks together, and after cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, the two walked to the back mountain together and came to Cheng Ying's tomb.

Although two years have passed, because Zhou Ping and Chu Ci often come to take care of it, Cheng Ying's tomb looks very neat, and the surrounding weeds are cleaned up very cleanly.

The two put the prepared meal in front of Cheng Ying's grave, and then sat side by side on the bluestone slab, watching the sunset in the distance.

Today's fifteenth, worship the souls of the dead, see the sunset, and watch the heavens, the earth, mountains and rivers.

Zhou Ping gently pressed his palm on Cheng Ying's tombstone and whispered, "Cheng Ying, the sun has set again......

When the sun sets, it rises again, but if a person dies, there is nothing......

Chu Ci didn't say a word, just sat quietly by Zhou Ping's side, no matter what happened in the future, as long as she could stay by Zhou Ping's side, it was enough.

Five days later, a man came to Zhou Ping's cabin, and Chu Ci, who was preparing dinner at this time, seemed to be aware of this man's existence, but she chose to turn a blind eye and was still busy in front of the fire.

The man did not rush to call the door, but stood outside the courtyard gate without arrogance, like a sculpture.

In the evening, after Zhou Ping sent the students home, he came to the door of the house from the path again, and saw the man standing at the door, Zhou Ping was also stunned, he stopped and was silent for a moment, and then said in a deep voice, "Come in." ”

The man who had been keeping his head down slowly raised his head to reveal his true face, this person was none other than the shadow lord who had served Li Chunhao all his life! Of course, strictly speaking, he was now Li Si's person.

"Thank you. The shadow's voice was a little hoarse, and he followed Zhou Ping into the fence gate, Chu Ci didn't say much, but looked at the shadow with a little unkind eyes.

"You may be seated. Zhou Ping waved his hand and motioned for the shadow to sit down, the latter didn't expect Zhou Ping to be so polite to him, and after nodding to Chu Ci in a friendly manner, the shadow sat on the stone chair, looking a little restrained.

You must know that Shadow is one of the few remaining double Xuan Realm immortal cultivators in the Tang Dynasty, and the man who can make him so restrained, I am afraid that there will be no second one among the injured realm immortal cultivators in the whole world.

Chu Ci didn't want to see this man, because when she was arrested by Li Chunhao and put under house arrest, it was the shadow who did it himself, and there was a lot of grievances between the two, and this guy named Shadow had become Li Si's subordinate, and he had to follow Li Si to protect him on weekdays.

Putting a cup of hot tea in front of the shadow, Chu Ci sat quietly beside Zhou Ping, at this moment, Chu Ci chose to be silent very wisely, and the men's affairs were solved by their men, and it was enough for him to stand firmly beside Zhou Ping.

Zhou Ping took a sip of the tea in the cup and asked in a deep voice, "Did Li Si ask you to come to me?"

The shadow bowed slightly, and replied softly, "On the orders of Your Majesty, I came to ask General Zhou to go out of the mountain to resist the enemy!"

"Out of the mountain to resist the enemy?" Zhou Ping's brows instantly tightened, and he asked with a cold face, "Where is the enemy?"

"General Zhou didn't know, just half a month ago, the five major royal clans of the beast clan united again, and began to invade the surrounding human territory with the Ten Thousand Beast Forest as the center, not only my Tang Dynasty, but even many vassal puppets were violated to varying degrees. ”

The shadow lowered his head and said, "Now that General Chu Li is urgently in command of the expedition, Chang'an Xianyuan is ready to form a Chang'an student army again to fight the enemy together, Your Majesty means that you want to ask General Zhou to go out of the mountain to train those student troops for a period of time and then put them into the battlefield, General Zhou once led the student army to fight outside the Ten Thousand Beast Forest, and he has made great achievements, and there is no one in the entire Tang Dynasty who is more suitable for training these students than General Zhou." ”

Zhou Ping's face changed, and then he asked, "You said that it was General Chu Li who was in charge, and what about Lu Qingdu? Why wasn't he in charge?"

Hearing this, the shadow was silent for a long time, and finally said, "After General Zhou left Chang'an City, Marshal Lu Qingdu disappeared, and only left a letter for His Majesty, asking His Majesty not to look for him. ”

Zhou Ping's eyes trembled, no matter how stupid he was, he knew the reason why Lu Qingdu left, Cheng Ying was the only disciple of Lu Qingdu, Lu Qingdu regarded Cheng Ying as his own, Cheng Ying's death hit him too hard, and he couldn't accept it for a while, so he wanted to go out for a walk......

"Why didn't you send me a message earlier?" Zhou Ping said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty originally didn't want to disturb General Zhou's retreat, so he didn't inform General Zhou at the first time, but now the five royal clans of the beast clan are all dispatched, this Cheng Terran is in danger of survival, there are very few people who can provoke the human race, and you are qualified to become a student army instructor, General Zhou, who else in the entire Tang Dynasty is qualified to be qualified for this position?"

The shadow's words are not gratuitous praise, but an interpretation of the fact that Zhou Pingnai was the most dazzling new star on the battlefield against the beast clan back then, and he was the owner of the first merit, wanting to shock the arrogant students of Chang'an Immortal Academy, who else could he be!

Zhou Ping closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, and the shadow, the double Xuan Realm immortal cultivator, sat quietly in place and waited, and after a long time, Zhou Ping finally slowly spoke, "I know about this matter, you go back and tell Li En...... Your Majesty, I will return to Chang'an City within three days, and I will arrive in half a month at most. ”

"The rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible, now that the beast clan is attacking the human race, I, Zhou Ping, as a member of the human race, will definitely do my part, I will definitely bring out this class of student army!"

Hearing Zhou Ping's words, the shadow finally breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, at this time, Li Si directly sent a message to Zhou Ping to convey the news in place, but this way is difficult to show the importance that the Tang Dynasty attaches to Zhou Ping.

Before the shadow came, he was also worried that Zhou Ping was used to living a life of seclusion and reluctance to go out of the mountain, you know, the current Zhou Ping is no longer a simple general, to a certain extent, Zhou Ping has become the spiritual totem of the Tang Dynasty, Zhou Ping, Li Si, these two men have completely become the peerless heroes in the hearts of the people of the Tang Dynasty at this time, no matter whether Zhou Ping participates in the war or not, as long as Zhou Ping can appear, the people's hearts can be determined!

But fortunately, everything was resolved smoothly, and Zhou Ping decided to go out of the mountain, and it was not in vain that he came to visit in person.

"You go back first. Zhou Ping said in a deep voice, "Now that the situation is tense, Li Si's side definitely needs manpower, you go back to assist him, and I will return after solving the matter here." ”

Seeing this, the shadow didn't want to say anything more, the task of his trip had been completed, as long as Zhou Ping chose to return to Chang'an City.

After the shadow left, Chu Ci took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice, "You really decided?"

"My father-in-law has already taken command of the expedition, Li Si has just succeeded to the throne, there is a shortage of soldiers and major generals around him, and the five major royal clans of the beast clan are eyeing the territory of our human race in the Ten Thousand Beast Forest......"

Zhou Ping squeezed Chu Ci's hand lightly, and said apologetically, "I have to go back, they are still fighting, I have to stand with them." ”

In fact, he has always felt guilty about Chu Ci, when he decided to stay in Wuyin Mountain, Chu Ci stayed with him to live a life of rough tea and light food, and now he has decided to put on his armor again and return to the battlefield, according to Chu Ci's temper, he will definitely go with him.

"I know what you're thinking. Chu Ci looked at Zhou Ping affectionately, and said softly, "You are my man, I will follow you wherever you go, and you will never want to get rid of me in your life......"

"There used to be Cheng Ying with you, but now that she is gone, then I will fight on the battlefield with you!"

Hearing this, Rao is Zhou Ping was no longer willing and could no longer refute her, the two looked at each other, and they were speechless.

From now on, I will accompany you on every road, with her share......
