In fact, many places still have this tradition. When children reach a certain age and number of days, their elders will give them longevity locks.

However, in different regions, the elders who give longevity locks are definitely different.

The longevity lock in Zhong Jing's hand is not just a longevity lock. It is like a prop in a game and has magical effects that can ensure the health and safety of children.

And this longevity lock is effective for ten years.

Ten years from now, this magical effect will no longer exist.

In these ten years, this longevity lock can exert a powerful effect to protect children from illness and disaster.

Zhong Jing put the things away and planned to give them to his children when he had children.

Or if your sister has a child, you can also give it to your nephew or niece.

Zhong Jing planned to visit the beautiful woman he met yesterday.

I drank so much yesterday that I vomited all over myself.

There was even some vomit on the car.

Zhong Jing was very helpless and could only ask the staff to wash the clothes.

In order to avoid suspicion, Zhong Jing did not participate.

Arriving at the other party's door, Zhong Jing knocked on the door.

Soon, the door was opened

""Get up"? Zhong Jing looked at each other

"What did you do to me yesterday?" The girl's eyes were like hooks, staring at Zhong Jing in front of her.

"What do you mean?" Zhong Jing looked at the bathrobe on the other party's body.

"Why are you wearing this? I asked them to buy clothes for you. Didn’t they deliver them to you?"Zhong Jing frowned.

Because there are more women, they have experienced more things.

Yesterday evening, when Zhong Jing ordered the people below to clean their clothes, they had already thought of the need to prepare clothes.

Otherwise, what should I wear the next day?

"It really is you." After hearing Zhong Jing's words, the girl immediately imagined a picture in her mind. She was even a little violent.

She tore her clothes to pieces.

"I'll fight for you." The girl suddenly became angry and started punching and kicking Zhong Jing.

"Ouch, why are you hitting me, you're crazy?" Zhong Jing was suddenly confused.

What happened?

Zhong Jing hasn't figured it out yet, it's scratching and scratching.

What's going on?

""Speak clearly first." Zhong Jing did not fight back.

Suddenly, Zhong Jing was stunned.

Because with the girl's movement, the bathrobe was immediately untied.

Then······

The scenery is endless.

Zhong Jing was stunned, and so was the girl.
