Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

"Are you Chu Ze?" the golden-armored cavalryman asked in a muffled voice, his voice as rough as a broken gong.

"It's me." Chu Ze answered calmly, without any fear in his tone.

"Humph, a country bumpkin dares to call himself Chu Ze? You really don't know how high the heavens are and how deep the earth is!" The golden-armored cavalry sneered, "Hand Liu Ruyan over quickly if you know what's good for you. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Chu Ze sneered in his heart. This golden-armored cavalryman was obviously coming for Liu Ruyan. Although he had lost his memory and power from his previous life, the pride in his bones had not diminished at all.

"General," Chu Ze said calmly, "Ruyan is my fiancée, why should I hand her over to you?"

"Fiancée?" The golden-armored cavalryman laughed as if he had heard a joke. "Just you? A poor boy, you think you are worthy of the eldest lady of the Liu family? Don't be a toad wanting to eat swan meat!"

When Liu Ruyan heard this, her face turned even paler and her body trembled slightly. Chu Ze held her hand tightly and gave her a reassuring look.

"General, you are joking," Chu Ze still maintained a calm tone, "Ruyan and I are in love with each other, how can the general control that?"

"Love each other? Bullshit!" the golden-armored cavalry roared, "The Liu family has already betrothed her to this general. Who do you think you are? How dare you snatch my woman from me?"

"Oh? Really?" Chu Ze raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a hint of sarcasm. "Why haven't I heard of this? Ruyan, tell me, is this true?"

Liu Ruyan mustered up her courage, poked her head out from behind Chu Ze, and said firmly: "No! I have never promised to marry anyone! I only want to marry Brother Chu Ze!"

Upon hearing this, the golden-armored cavalryman's face suddenly turned livid. He glared at Liu Ruyan fiercely, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Bitch! If you don't accept my toast, you'll be punished!" The golden-armored cavalryman roared, drew the saber from his waist, pointed at Chu Ze, "Today, I will kill you first, and then take Liu Ruyan away!"

After saying that, the golden armored cavalryman squeezed his horse's belly, and the warhorse neighed and rushed towards Chu Ze. A cold light flashed in Chu Ze's eyes. Although he did not have the strength of his previous life, it was more than enough to deal with these ordinary soldiers.

Just when the warhorse was about to hit Chu Ze, he dodged the horse's impact and grabbed the golden-armored cavalryman's arm and twisted it hard. With a "crack", the golden-armored cavalryman's arm was twisted off.

"Ah!" The golden-armored cavalryman let out a scream and fell off his horse.

Seeing this, the other cavalrymen drew their weapons and rushed towards Chu Ze. Chu Ze sneered and rushed forward with his bare hands.

Although he had lost the power of his previous life, Chu Ze's fighting skills were deeply engraved in his bones. He was agile and fierce, and every punch and kick carried great power, like a tiger descending from the mountain, unstoppable.

In an instant, several cavalrymen were knocked to the ground by Chu Ze, wailing incessantly.

The remaining cavalrymen saw that the situation was not good, and they all pulled the reins, not daring to move forward. They looked at Chu Ze in horror, as if they were looking at a demon from hell.

Chu Ze dusted himself off, walked up to the golden-armored cavalryman, looked down at him with contempt in his eyes.

"You dare to act wild with just this little ability?" Chu Ze sneered, "Go back and tell your master that Liu Ruyan is my woman, and no one can take her away!"

The golden-armored cavalryman covered his broken arm, his face pale, his eyes filled with fear. He struggled to get up, not daring to say another word, and fled in a panic with the rest of the cavalry.

The dust settled, and the small mountain village returned to peace. Liu Ruyan walked to Chu Ze, her eyes full of admiration and love. "Brother Chu Ze, you are so awesome!" Liu Ruyan said excitedly, with little stars twinkling in her eyes.

Chu Ze looked at Liu Ruyan, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He reached out his hand, gently stroked Liu Ruyan's cheek, and said softly: "Silly girl, I will definitely protect you."

Liu Ruyan snuggled in Chu Ze's arms, feeling his warmth and strength, and her heart was filled with a sense of security.

At this moment, a melodious flute sound came from afar, breaking the warm atmosphere between the two. The flute sound was desolate and melodious, with a hint of sadness, as if telling some unknown story.

Chu Ze and Liu Ruyan looked up at the same time, and saw a man in white standing on a mountain in the distance, playing a jade flute in his hand.

The man in white has a slender figure, handsome face, and extraordinary temperament, like a banished immortal.

"Who is he?" Liu Ruyan asked curiously.

Chu Ze looked at the man in white and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if he had seen him somewhere.

At this moment, the man in white stopped playing, turned around and left, his figure gradually disappearing among the mountains.

The sound of the flute also disappeared, leaving only a faint lingering sound echoing in the valley.

Chu Ze looked at the direction where the man in white disappeared, his heart filled with confusion and uneasiness.

Who is this man in white? Why is he here? What does his flute sound represent?
All of this is like a mystery, troubling Chu Ze.

He had a premonition that the appearance of this man in white would bring him new challenges and new crises...

Chu Ze stared at the direction where the man in white disappeared, and an inexplicable sense of crisis wrapped around his heart like a vine. Liu Ruyan snuggled up to him and asked softly, "Brother Chu Ze, what are you thinking about?"

Chu Ze retracted his gaze and looked down at the beauty in his arms. There was a trace of worry on Liu Ruyan's face. Her clear eyes reflected his figure, which made him feel warm in his heart. He gently stroked Liu Ruyan's soft hair and said lightly: "It's okay, I just remembered something."

"What's the matter?" Liu Ruyan asked. She was curious about everything about Chu Ze, especially his mysterious temperament, which fascinated her.

Chu Ze smiled and said casually, "These are just some insignificant things, don't take them to heart." He didn't want to make Liu Ruyan worry, and he didn't want her to be involved in the danger he might face.

He thought to himself that the sound of the flute and the appearance of the man in white were no accident. The sadness and helplessness contained in the sound of the flute seemed to be telling an unknown story. And the temperament of the man in white made him feel a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.

"Brother Chuze, you are lying to me again." Liu Ruyan pouted her lips and said with some dissatisfaction, "You always say it's okay, but I know you must be hiding something from me."

Chu Ze smiled helplessly. This girl was really smart. She saw through his thoughts at a glance. "Okay, I admit that I did hide something from you, but now is not the time to tell you."

"Why?" Liu Ruyan became even more curious. What she hated most was that Chu Ze kept secrets from her. (End of this chapter)
