Chapter Ninety-Nine: In the Spring Breeze, both the master and apprentice were smiling
Chu Chou took Zhao Zhishui, who had recovered from his injuries and had already entered the peak realm of the six grades and was completely stable, and walked to the territory of the West Pole Empire without hurry.
Among the four places, except for the Northern Wilderness, which has been completely stabilized, and then the general trend of the West Pole has gradually been mastered by the West Pole Empire, and in the past two years, the West Pole Empire is preparing to start completely suppressing those rebellious sects and dynasties.
In contrast, the Western Pole is much clearer than the Southern Barbarian and Eastern Regions.
The West Pole Empire has seen more than 2,000 years, has a profound heritage, has faced many winds and rains, and has also experienced many stormy waves, and now it is still standing, standing at the top of many dynasties in the West Pole.
Moreover, the West Pole Empire is the one that has the best relationship with the local superpower among the four empires.
Since the first generation of the Son of Heaven of the West Pole Empire, the West Pole Buddhism was established as the state religion, when the first generation of the ancestor of the West Pole Empire established the imperial dynasty, he encountered a sneak attack by the demon master, but the demon master who cultivated to be the peak of the Eight Grades of the Great Master realm did not succeed, and was intercepted by a hidden monk of the West Pole Buddhism. Although the purpose of the hidden monk was not only to save the Son of Heaven, but also for many other reasons, since then, the West Pole Buddhism has been called Buddhism by the West Pole Empire.
Of course, the West Pole Buddhism has been established for thousands of years, and has always been at the peak of the world's power, and when the West Pole Empire was founded, the West Pole Buddhism was still a well-deserved overlord of the West Pole. Therefore, the West Pole Empire did not suffer at all, but because this matter was not officially rejected by the West Pole Buddhism, the successive generations of the West Pole Empire have earned a lot of real and virtual money, and the accumulation and polishing of generation after generation finally made the West Pole Dynasty of the past become the West Pole Empire, and then continued to develop and prosper, achieving the current situation comparable to the prosperity of the East Pole Empire.
The West Pole Empire has seventy-two states, divided into upper, middle and lower levels, with jurisdiction over more than 1,300 counties, and countless subordinate counties and towns, with a huge number and rich officials, second only to the East Pole Empire.
Parrot State is an upper-middle-level state in the West Antarctic Empire, with a relatively dense population and a vast area. There was once a great poet who wrote in this place, "The parrot flies west to Longshan, and the tree of Fangzhou is green." The famous sentence was spread all over the world, making Parrot State famous for a while.
Xishan County, which is subordinate to Parrot State, is a small county town, located in the northeast of Parrot State, there are nineteen counties under Parrot State, and Xishan County can rank among the top five in terms of comprehensiveness, and the population is the first in Parrot State!
There are thirteen counties under Xishan County, among which there is a county seat called Nanhe County, which has a large number of people and is extremely dense, and the population of Nanhe County can be compared to some sparsely populated county seats.
There are two larger rivers in Nanhe County that flow through the suburbs of the county, from ancient times to the present, these two rivers have almost never flooded, nor have they dried up, regardless of whether the wind is in tune or not, whether the rain is smooth or not, it does not affect the quiet flow of these two rivers. It is also these two vital rivers that allow those who were born and raised in the local area to live here for generations, and the farmers can have a good harvest every year, and the grain harvest of Nanhe County accounts for most of Xishan County every year, and it is a well-known grain county in Parrot Prefecture, although the population of Nanhe County is increasing, but it does not affect the normal life of the people growing in this fertile land.
Chu Chou and Zhao Zhishui walked slowly on the ridge next to a field.
Chu Chou's appearance is still the same, his expression is calm, and he is slightly sad and lonely, which is also mixed with free and easy relief, and mixed with deep nostalgia and memories. As for Zhao Zhishui, she has almost changed her appearance, her body has completely grown up, like the willow tree that continues to bloom willow buds, she is seventeen years old this year, her height is slightly taller than most women, even if she is standing in front of Chu Chou, who is more than half a head taller than her, her figure still looks tall, and her face is getting longer and more captivating, different from the childish feeling of a little child when she was a child, although she has not yet fully grown up, but sometimes the calm and calm demeanor on her face is more profound than many people in her thirties and forties, which is very similar to Chu Chou todayγ
Although Chu Chou makes her smile more every day, more often than not, she maintains a flat demeanor, but once she laughs, once she is happy, she is almost exactly the same as when she was a child, the corners of her mouth are upturned, her lips are slightly open, revealing a pair of dazzling little tiger teeth, and a pair of small dimples like pear vortices are revealed on her smiling face, and her big eyes are especially vivid and lively when she laughs. But compared to when she was a child, her smile is obviously not so much.
In May, the wheat seedlings began to stretch their bodies, the green seedlings faced the spring rains, growing vigorously, in the soft spring breeze, in the murmur of the swallows, in the hard watering of the croppers, slowly growing up, slowly maturing, and slowly moving towards the golden and bright season that belongs to it.
The pair of masters and apprentices walked indifferently and leisurely on the ridge next to the wheat field, and after walking this difficult road, they came to the path next to the ridge.
It was morning and it had just rained, so the trail was damp, with wheat fields on one side and naturally growing flowers on the other, which were covered with dew or the traces of last night's spring rain.
The air in the early morning after the spring rain is exceptionally fresh and intoxicating, and people can get drunk in this full spring color when they take a breath, which makes people unable to extricate themselves.
Zhao Zhishui followed behind Chu Chou, and neither of them spoke, as if they were tasting spring. However, this time, it was Chu Chou who took the lead in breaking the silence.
"It was here that I encountered one of the most dangerous attacks of my life for the first time. Of course, there were many assassinations after that, but this first attack is a very vivid reminder to me. Chu Chou smiled, "It's clear as if it happened yesterday." β
However, Chu Chou did not continue, although Zhao Zhishui was a little curious, but seeing that the master did not mean to continue, he did not ask again.
"Aren't you a little curious?Why do I remember this attack so clearly?" Chu Chou turned his back to Zhao Zhishui and continued to say as he walked, "Because of that time when I fought with people, the enemy's technique was flower petals, petals by petals, which looked extremely soft, but it was more unforgettable than a sharp sword. β
"Yes, the petals condensed by that person's practice are lilacs. Chu Chou stood up as he spoke, and Zhao Zhishui also stopped.
Chu Chou folded his hands on his sleeves, turned around, and looked at the charming scenery in the distance and near with Zhao Zhishui, "At that time, I didn't have the thought of my life being threatened in my heart, not at all, at that time, in my heart, there were only the white lilacs." β
Zhao Zhishui turned her head to Chu Chou and said, "Master, aren't you in pain?"
Chu Chou grinned, smiling like the spring breeze that had just passed.
"At that time, I didn't feel any pain at all, but I remembered someone in my heart. In fact, the reason why I remember that dangerous fight so clearly is not because it was the first time my life was threatened, but because the exercises of the person who fought with me are still fresh in my memory. In this life, I have encountered a time when someone condensed the exercise, which is white cloves. β
At that time, Chu Chou was covered in blood from the white cloves that the man had condensed with exercises, and his bones were visible, but Chu Chou did not howl, but he had a smile of surprise and memories on his face, and at that time, he smiled brightly. When the man saw Chu Chou smiling so happily and so brightly in this situation, he was immediately scared away, thinking that Chu Chou had some back hand and some hole cards.
Zhao Zhishui looked at Master's smiling face because she evoked some kind of memory, she also smiled, and stood by the wheat field with Master, standing in the spring breeze.
In the slightly intoxicating spring breeze, the corners of the clothes of the master and apprentice were slightly raised, thinking of different people in their hearts, but with the same smile on their faces. At this moment, for both of them, time seems to have lost its meaning.
