Chapter 7 Chapter VII

Before Yuan Zhenxia could finish his words, the prince took a sudden breath.He inhaled so quickly that there was a "swish" sound.Then, he said in a very sharp voice: "Her face!" Yuan Zhenxia also involuntarily took a breath, feeling nervous for no reason. Originally, whether the girl's face was beautiful or ugly had nothing to do with him.But since he has seen such a beautiful body of that girl, it is simply the masterpiece of the creator, there can never be a more beautiful female body, it would be a pity if it turned out to be an unspeakably ugly girl. People always have the character of pursuing perfection, and Yuan Zhenxia is no exception.

Prince Taining took another gulp of wine to restrain his excitement, and said in a calm voice: "At that time, she asked me to leave, but how could I leave?" Of course the prince refused to leave, he stared at the girl's back, not only did not leave, but also approached step by step.The girl did not run away when he approached, but just folded her arms around her breast and put her hands on her own shoulders.The slender fingers, the plump back of the hand, the smooth shoulders, the slender waist, the round buttocks, everything that constitutes makes the prince's heart beat faster, almost suffocating!

The prince came all the way to the girl's back, and when he took a deep breath, he could already smell the indescribably refreshing fragrance emanating from the girl's skin.A gust of breeze passed by, blowing the girl's long hair a little, and brushed it on his face, but the feeling of soft hair touching his face already made the prince tremble all over, as if he had fallen into an abyss of incomparable joy Same. The prince tried his best to control his breathing, and whispered behind the girl: "I want to see you!" The girl's body shook, and she replied softly: "You have already... seen everything about me!"

The prince took a breath: "Let me see your face, I have indeed seen everything about you, but I have not seen your face!" The girl did not turn around, but lowered her head even lower.Her long hair covered her face again, and the voice coming out of the thick hair was: "You will be disappointed, it's better not to look at it!" When the prince asked to see her face, all he was afraid of was the resolute refusal of the girl.In that case, even though he is a prince and has a high status, he must not know what to do.Before such a beautiful girl, the status of a prince is really nothing. The important thing is that the girl is willing.

But at this time, the prince heard the girl's tone, and it was not a resolute rejection. He couldn't help being overjoyed, and with a stride, he came to the girl.The girl's body vibrated again, her upright breasts trembled slightly due to the vibration of her body, the scene was so moving that the prince felt that the plump breasts were like two blazing fires! The prince slowly stretched out his hand, and when his fingers passed through the long hair that hung down and touched the girl's chin, the slippery feeling that the fingertips only touched the girl's skin made him involuntarily groan. There was a groan.

Too beautiful beauties will make men have a feeling of sacred worship of female bodies! With the prince's habit of dealing with women, at this moment, he should have already used his hands to tightly hold the protruding breasts of the girl.But at this time, he did not do so. Although the crystal clear jade body was right in front of his eyes, within reach, but at that time, there was almost no carnal thoughts in his heart, only infinite reverence for a beautiful female body. Naturally, he is not some kind of saint, and he doesn't know how long he can maintain this kind of mood, and when will his bestiality break out?But at the time, it was true that he had no intention of possessing the girl physically.

After touching the girl's chin with his fingers, he took another deep breath, and then, gently and slowly, raised the girl's head. When he raised the girl's head, the shiny thick black long hair that hung down fell to the sides of the girl's cheeks.When he raised the girl's head to look up at him slightly, the girl's face was presented in front of his eyes without reservation. Not only the whole face appeared in front of his eyes, but also, they were so close to him that they could smell each other's breath. At that moment, Crown Prince Taining felt extremely shocked again.

When he asked to see the girl's face, he never thought about whether the girl was beautiful or ugly—because a girl with such a beautiful figure must be an outstanding beauty! If he had thought about it, it was just thinking about how beautiful this girl would be. However, when he held up the girl's chin, when the girl's face was so close to him and presented in front of his eyes, he was still shocked—extremely shocked. Because, no matter how he imagined it, he couldn't imagine a girl's face that could be so beautiful that it would make one's heart beat wildly. The girl's body is extremely hot, but her face is still a little childish, it seems that she is just a precocious girl of seventeen or eighteen years old.That bit of childishness, coupled with shyness and panic, gave her beautiful face a delicate and pitiful expression, and made her eyes look deeper, like a pair of deep pools full of love and compassion.

Her facial features are impeccable, and her cheeks have a natural bright red like roses.And the fragrance from between her lips is unmatched by any floral fragrance. Her eyelids were drooping, her long eyelashes were trembling, and she occasionally raised her eyes to look at the prince.In the big black eyes, there is a brilliance that only the stars in the sky can have. Prince Taining was stunned, just staring at the girl's beautiful face.Until the girl's voice, accompanied by a burst of fragrance, entered the depths of his heart. The girl said: "Stranger, you should leave."

Taining Crown Prince's soul—if anyone has a soul—at this time, it was considered to have returned to his own body.Naturally, he wanted to pull the girl towards him and hold her in his arms. However, the girl struggled lightly and took two steps back.The prince hurriedly said, "You... are you from the village in front?" The girl nodded. The prince took two steps forward, and the girl made a gesture to prevent him from coming forward, and the prince stopped naturally. There was an extremely sweet smile on the girl's face, and it seemed that the prince had unknowingly floated up to the clouds.

Then, the girl turned around and walked forward, humming a graceful song softly. After the girl took seven or eight steps, the prince suddenly called out: "I want to see you again!" The girl replied with a singing voice: "If you really want to see each other again, the place where you met for the first time is the best place!" It was a sentence of a love song. If the girl wants to meet again, she will answer with such a folk song. The prince listened to it like drinking wine.At that time, he never thought of keeping the girl and telling her his identity, but in a dazed and bewildered state, he watched the girl walk forward and came to the side of the stream, beside a big rock. , picked up the clothes and put them on, and then looked back at him with a smile. Even at that time, he still didn't think he had carnal possessive thoughts, but because the girl was so beautiful, he wanted to hold her in his arms. Although at this time, the girl was already twenty or thirty steps away from him, but that smile still made the prince fascinated. He watched the girl walk up the mountain stream, turned around the corner of the mountain, and was no longer seen.Only then did he yell, and staggered forward to chase after him, but when he turned around the foot of the mountain, the girl had already disappeared. He still wanted to catch up again, but the young officer, Shi Nai and several guards had already chased him, and advised the prince to go back quickly and not go any further.Shi Nai's words were very firm: "Your Highness, the natives in the mountainous area ahead are not only fierce, but also have their own style of lowering their heads. I don't even know it very well. Why take risks?" Prince Taining didn't say anything.Originally, there were almost no secrets between him and Shi Nai, but this time, he did not tell the story of meeting the girl. When he was surrounded by the crowd and returned to the prince's villa, the twelve new beauties had already arrived. The twelve new beauties were of course all beauties, but in the eyes of the prince at this time, they were nothing at all.Therefore, when he accepted the service of those twelve beauties in the following time, he almost kept his eyes closed. With his eyes closed, he could enjoy the sensual pleasure while imagining that the pleasure came from the girl he had just met.His desire to possess the girl's body probably only started at this time, and once it started, it was simply out of control! Although he was surrounded by exquisite, protruding and beautiful girls, and even though he closed his eyes, when his hands touched the breasts of those girls, he told himself in his heart: No!It's not like that, it shouldn't feel like that, I should feel like I'm floating on a cloud instead of still lying on a cushion.This kind of thought made him feel extremely disgusted with the twelve beauties in front of him. The behavior of Taining Crown Prince greatly surprised the twelve beauties.First, the beauty teased him in every possible way, but he didn't respond at all. Then, he closed his eyes, waved his hands, and said in a very weak voice, as if moaning, "Go away, you all go away! Go away!" After the beauties left, he walked up and down very restlessly.At that time, all kinds of thoughts came one after another, and his desire to possess the girl was also rising amidst the chaotic thoughts.He has never had such a longing for a girl, and he has never had the fear from the bottom of his heart.But at this time, he has, what he fears is: if the girl has no interest in him at all and refuses his request, what should I do? Although the girl borrowed the lyrics of the love song and asked him to meet again, it didn't mean that she was willing to give her body to him.And if she refused, what would he do?After meeting her, he felt that other women were not even women anymore, and he really had to have her! He became so restless, so at a loss.This kind of situation is not even as good as a young man's first love. How could it happen to a person like him who has the status of a prince? Prince Taining's tone became more and more agitated, fully revealing his anxiety at that time. When he paused for a moment, Yuan Zhenxia said with a wry smile: "If a woman really attracts a man's heart, he will have this mentality of worrying about gains and losses under the psychological shadow of not being able to get her." .” Chu Jun didn't say anything, but Shi Nai let out a sneer at this moment. After a while, Chu Jun sighed.Then, after another long silence, he said, "Yes, I'm too nervous. This girl... After seeing her, I just feel that she has occupied my whole heart. If I don't get her, I will lose the whole country." It's meaningless to leave it to me." Yuan Zhenxia swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "You have such worries, the situation is quite special. Because you are a prince, if you can't get a folk girl as a prince, the possibility of failure is too small .” The voice of the prince became dry: "The possibility is small, but it does not mean that it is impossible. The aborigines in the northern mountainous area have strong folk customs, and there are many strange customs passed down from ancient times. They may not go against these strange customs for the sake of the prince. For example, if this beautiful girl already has a lover, then I have to fight this man, and the weapon is chosen by the other party." When he talked about this, he paused for a while, and then said: "I don't think I will be more proficient in using the prongs for hunting wild boars than a native in the mountains. I don't want to take risks." Yuan Zhenxia snorted: "You have to assume that she doesn't have a lover, and use your masculine charm──Actually, you have already succeeded, haven't you?" Of course the prince succeeded in getting the girl who was as charming as a fairy, because Yuan Zhenxia had already seen the girl when he came in. Moreover, although he didn't see the pretty face of the young girl Prince Ling who had exhausted all the adjectives to describe it, Yuan Zhenxia had already admitted that she was a stunning beauty in terms of posture alone. When Yuan Zhenxia said this, the prince lowered his head and murmured: "Yes, I got her!" After he said something, he fell silent again.Yuan Zhenxia already felt that there might still be many twists and turns, but the prince didn't make a sound. At this moment, Shi Nai coughed dryly, and the prince immediately made a gesture to him. Shi Nai said: "Let the prince rest for a while, and I will describe it." Yuan Zhenxia had no objection.Since Shi Nai has always been by the prince's side, he must know the ins and outs of the matter, and it's all the same who will narrate it. Shi Nai raised his head: "That day, I saw the prince's fidgeting, so I naturally knew that something happened to him. So, during the rest time after dinner, I asked him why, and he took the daytime meeting Tell me about the girl." After Prince Taining told Shi Nai how he met the girl, he was still in an extreme trance.He asked: "Is there such a beauty in the world? Or is she just a legendary fairy who belongs to the mountains and lakes. After I met her once, I will never see her again?" Shi Nai didn't find it funny at all, but felt that the matter was very serious.Because he is too familiar with the character of the prince, the prince must get everything he wants. Since a beautiful woman can make him fall in love so much after a short meeting, if he can't get it, it will make him feel extremely painful physically and mentally.He has already compared the girl with "the whole country", and her status is still higher than "the whole country", so one can imagine the seriousness of the matter. At that moment, Shi Nai said: "Of course she is a human being, an aborigine in the mountainous area where the mountain stream originated. I think, first send a few people to investigate her life experience, and find out what customs and taboos they have in the relationship between men and women. In this way , it will be easier to carry out.” Shi Nai's proposal was originally very reasonable, but the prince, who was so worried and had no confidence in himself, immediately denied it: "That's not good, if it is found out that she has a lover long ago, or there are some taboos, let's go ahead and make it even worse." It's inconvenient." Shi Nai smiled bitterly: "Then you have to go there again and wait for her to appear." Chu Jun bit his lower lip, his expression was very disturbed, he hesitated to speak, and finally said nothing. This night, Prince Chu naturally couldn't sleep.Twelve lovely and outstanding beauties are outside the dormitory, not daring to close their eyes, waiting for the prince to call at any time, but the prince has always been alone in the dormitory. The abnormal behavior of the prince, of course someone immediately reported to Prince Duwang.Due to the delicate position of the prince in the country, although the prince's military group holds great power, they are still constantly on guard against all the actions of the prince. In the early morning of the next day, the prince received the information that the prince met an aboriginal girl during a solo operation and fell in love with him at first sight, and became a "six palace pink and white without color". Prince Duwang's reaction after hearing such a report cannot be directly known, but can only be speculated based on what happened in the future.According to the joint conjectures of Shi Nai and Chu Jun, there must be one of them who occupied an important position and played a decisive role in the entire subsequent development of the situation. This person is Bakku, Prince Duwang's descendant.That is, Shi Nai's benefactor and master later fell out again, and even lost to Shi Nai's Baku in the head-down technique. Shi Nai even wondered whether Bakuu was going to deal with the prince or himself?Because, for one thing, a "blood ghost descendant" raised by Baku is still under Shi Nai's captivity.Over the years, Baku has made all kinds of preparations, but if Shi Nai releases the "Vampire", Baku is not sure whether those preparations can really prevent the "Vampire" from backlashing. (Naturally, Baku also knew that Shi Nai would not act rashly to release the "Vampire" again. Because the order given by the "Vampire" was still against Shi Nai.) Secondly, Shi Nai is now the prince's head-down teacher.If the prince actually made any mistakes in lowering his head, then this would be tantamount to Shi Nai's failure, and Baku can naturally breathe a sigh of relief! Because in the future, something happened to the prince—his head was lowered.So Shi Nai's speculation is reasonable. Naturally, Shi Nai knew that it was not his fault that the prince had an accident, but the prince himself did something wrong.Otherwise, the other party would have absolutely no chance to make a move. The method of lowering the head used by the other party was so secretive that Shi Nai had to admit that the content of the head lowering technique was too complicated. Even if a person spends a lifetime of effort, he can't learn everything, and he can't fully know the content of all head lowering techniques. Of course, what is said in this section is all speculation after the fact.At that time, neither the prince nor Shi Nai could have imagined that the prince met a beautiful girl, such an ordinary event, would become a political and head-bending kingdom, an intrigue and earth-shattering event! As soon as the next day dawned, the prince announced in a hurry that he would act alone and no one was allowed to follow him.He made the announcement very formally and solemnly. Then, not long after the sun had risen, he arrived at the hillside where he had met the girl yesterday, and began to wait. Time passed slowly, and the prince suffered from the pain of lovesickness in every second and every minute.A tree in the distance was blown by the wind, and he would bounce up; a hare sprang out from the grass, and he would run over quickly—all these made him think that it was the girl who had come. He waited until noon, but there was still no sign of the girl—he pinned his hopes on the afternoon, because yesterday, the time when he met the girl was in the afternoon. He was by the stream, immersing his whole head in the cool water.But as cool as the stream was, it never calmed his fiery mind.Even when he looked up at the scorching sun, what appeared in front of his eyes was the beautiful face of that young girl. He waited all the time, and in the afternoon, Shi Nai and other attendants all followed.The young officer was even on a high ground not too far away, watching the prince with binoculars—the reason was, of course, protection. However, what everyone saw from a distance was that sometimes the prince maintained a posture like a clay sculpture and a wooden sculpture, which remained unchanged for a long time; sometimes he turned around like ants on a hot pot; , or a cluster of flowers, talking incessantly. When the sun gradually set in the west, he began to pick flowers.There were wild flowers everywhere, and he picked a lot of them at once, but he continued to pick them until it was completely dark, and he didn't stand still. At this moment, Shi Nai came to his side.Seen in the darkness, the prince's face was terribly pale, his eyes were lost, and he looked at Shi Nai, his voice sounded like a lonely ghost crying: "She didn't come!" Shi Nai reached out, took his arm, and led him forward, and the prince followed obediently. In the villa, an extremely rich food had already been prepared, but the aroma of the food, and the beauties who were ready to serve the prince did not attract the prince's interest at all.Without even looking at it, the prince went back to his bedroom, and sat down on a chair, resting his head on his hands, looking dazed and bewildered. Shi Nai has been by his side all the time, and after staying with the prince for a long time without moving, Shi Nai suddenly said in a rather high-pitched voice: "Your Highness, your current situation is as if you have been hit by a head bow!" The prince raised his head, but he did not deny it: "Yes, didn't you tell me that the head-bending technique is so wonderful that it is so wonderful that a certain person himself is a kind of head-bending. Just look at him and you have already hit it!" Head down!" Shi Nai smiled bitterly: "Yes, this kind of head drop is called 'heart drop', and it is not something the head drop master can control. 'Xin drop' is determined by the person himself, and even the other party cannot control it!" When Yuan Zhenxia heard this, he let out a "huh", expressing his understanding of the wonderful phenomenon of "heart drop". A person, this person himself is a kind of head-bending technique, which will make others drop their heads-this kind of thing sounds very strange, but it is actually a quite common phenomenon. A man's deep-seated love for a woman, or a woman's love for a man, can even sacrifice his life for love.In the eyes of others, it is completely unbelievable behavior, but to the person involved, it is natural.Because there was a person who made him "heart surrender", and he couldn't act involuntarily from then on. This is really a profound psychological phenomenon, and it can be included in the category of head lowering technique, which cannot but make people gasp in admiration! Shi Nai's expression was extremely serious: "Your Highness, you should consider whether this girl was sent by someone?" The prince let out a long sigh: "Anyway, I've been hit by 'Xin Jiang'. No matter how she came, if I don't get her, I will never be happy again. I...she didn't come today, which means that she doesn't have her heart. Without me... I have very little hope of success. I will wait tomorrow, if she appears, I... want... I want to use... 'Yin Jiang'..." After he stammered for a while, he finally uttered the word "prostitution", and Shi Nai's face immediately sank. The so-called "sexual surrender" is a kind of head lowering that can make women lose their self-control. Although it is not a fatal head lowering, it is recognized as a very despicable act of lowering their heads.Especially, when the purpose of the surrenderer is to possess a woman for himself, it is even more humble. "Desperation" is naturally a strong aphrodisiac at work.Women couldn't hold themselves back at the time, and if they were not willing afterwards, they would suffer a lot.So although this head-down technique is simple, the head-down master is not very willing to pass it on to others. When the prince said this, of course he wanted to ask Shi Nai for help. After Shi Nai's face darkened, he immediately said: "No!" The prince jumped up abruptly: "I must, as soon as I see her, I want her to be mine, I... can't live without her. Moreover, I will definitely love her with my whole life, just because I am afraid of her Don't want me, it's not to play with her by lowering your head!" When the prince was speaking these words, his eyes were covered with red silk, and the veins on his forehead were also violently raised. He looked very scary. Shi Nai was silent, using silence to express his dissatisfaction. The prince still roared: "If you don't agree, I'll beg someone else. 'Sex surrender' is not a great head-bending technique, every head-bending master will do it!" Naturally, Shi Nai had to carefully estimate the intention of the prince's words.Although it is impossible for the prince to remove him from the position of the royal head-bending master due to his close relationship with the prince, if the prince finds another head-bending master, it will always be a threat to his status. So, under the fierce gaze of the prince, he said in a deep voice, "Okay, I'll give it to you." In order to show that he really agreed under duress, as soon as he said the words, he immediately walked out with a cold face. Chu Jun rubbed his hands anxiously, he knew the effect of prostitution.But what if the girl doesn't show up at all?The mountains are so vast, where can he find her? Ten minutes later, Shi Nai returned with a cold face, and handed a small bamboo tube as thin as a finger to the prince.One end of the bamboo is a naturally sealed bamboo joint, and the other end is plugged with a wooden stopper. Shi Nai's tone was also cold: "You already know how to use it. You can use it, but it's better not to use it." The prince's attitude was very sincere: "Teacher, it shouldn't be a bad thing to turn an ordinary mountain girl into a queen!" Shi Nai snorted: "She is not an ordinary girl, she made a prince fall in love." The prince murmured: "She is so beautiful, you can't blame me, any man..." He then said some vague words, all of which were meaningless words spoken in an anxious and irritable mood. After he calmed down a bit, Shi Nai said: "There are a few things, Your Highness must pay attention. If she is not a virgin, you must tell me immediately, there may be other twists and turns. Also, no matter what the situation is, you must pay attention to it. Don't swallow her saliva." The prince laughed: "What's the matter? Afraid that the fairy will bow her head to me?" Shi Nai said: "I am His Highness's head-down master, and I have the responsibility to remind His Highness of everything that may happen..." Chu Jun waved his hand: "Don't worry, beware of the method of lowering your head, you have taught me a lot!" At this time, Shi Nai shouldn't have said anything, but in his heart, there was an unfathomable premonition.This premonition started even after he heard that the prince met a beautiful girl by the lake. (A head-down master is a person who has dealt with metaphysics and witchcraft all his life. He can become an outstanding head-down master. He is always different from ordinary people. No one can say what the difference is, or he is particularly smart, or What's special about the structure of the brain. The sixth sense of most head-down masters is very sensitive. They especially have a premonition about what will happen, but like all premonitions, it is just an elusive feeling. ) Shi Nai felt that his ominous premonition was getting stronger and stronger.Although he thought about it again and again, he couldn't think of what kind of ominous the prince's behavior would bring. He just thought it was better to be careful. So he knew that the prince would be unhappy when he heard it, so he still said: "Your Highness, of course you know that there are several powerful head bows, and they are taken when the man and the woman are having sex!" The prince was a little impatient, but finally nodded: "I know, and I have enough strength to prevent it." Shi Nai was still worried, but he didn't know what to say, so he sighed.He was thinking in his heart: It's better not to let the prince see that girl again. Although the prince's current situation is heartbroken, it's not serious.As long as something else happens to distract him, Xinxiang will heal naturally without any medicine. That night, the prince was still alone, and spent a very restless night.He had many fantastic dreams, dreaming that he and the beautiful and charming girl like a fairy were enjoying the greatest pleasure that human beings can get physically on the green grass. For three days in a row, he went to wait on the hillside early in the morning, but the girl was still missing. Chu Jun was almost going crazy, his eyes looked blood red due to lack of sleep.He has made up his mind to wait another day, and if he doesn't see the girl again, he will go into the mountains to look for it.No matter how long it takes or how many roads to walk, he has to find out the fairy in his mind. On the fourth day, waiting until the afternoon, the prince almost despaired again.But just when his ears were filled with the booming sound from his head, he suddenly heard a sweet and graceful singing voice, blowing into his ears with the breeze. As soon as the singing came to his ears, all his troubles and anxiety disappeared immediately, and even his vision, which had been gradually blurred, became extremely clear——he saw the girl! Of course it is her!Besides her, who else would have such a light and beautiful figure?She didn't walk over at all, but slid over lightly.Traditional clothes wrapped her slender body tightly, and her smile made all the competing flowers pale in color. She walked forward, and everywhere she went became a fairyland.Her eyes looked around nimbly, and to him, they were two auras of life.The voice that comes out of her small and plump lips is simply a fairy voice, who cares what she is singing?The sound alone has already made people think about and remember nothing. She came out from behind a bush, Chu Jun wanted to run up to meet her and hug her tightly.But his whole body seemed to be nailed in place, unable to move at all. At this moment, he was so nervous that he even wondered if it was his hallucination after waiting for too long! The girl gradually approached, and the prince was shocked suddenly, because he could clearly see the expression on the girl's face—it was a very beautiful and moving smile, but he felt that it was a smile from a beautiful woman to a stranger, and it was by no means The smile of a girl who already has a relationship in her heart. For an instant the prince felt terrified.At this time, he didn't have time to think about Shi Nai's warning "use it if you can, don't use it", he had no room to think about it, he had already taken out the small bamboo tube, and pushed open the stopper with his thumb. At this time, the girl happened to be walking towards the wind.The prince held the small bamboo tube in his hand, pointed the opened end of the bamboo tube at the girl, and waved his hand.It looked like he was a little bit at a loss, but in fact, he was drawing a talisman without any mistakes--that was a necessary step to perform the "sexual surrender". From the mouth of the bamboo tube, a thin, almost invisible pink smoke rose out, and dissipated in the air as soon as it came out. And just after he stopped, the girl was stunned for a while, the prince's heart seemed to be hanging in her mouth. In less than a minute, the girl laughed again, the same smile, but it was completely different from the previous one! The smile just now was full of unfamiliar shyness. Although it was extremely touching, it made people dare not take any offensive actions against the beautiful girl who gave out such a smile.But the smile at this time is full of the charm of a mature woman, and there is a warm flame burning in a pair of clear eyes—this kind of seductive and provocative smile can squeeze out the most primitive ambition in a man! The prince's heartbeat increased, and he strode towards the girl.The girl suddenly laughed out loud, amidst the soul-stirring laughter, she turned around abruptly and ran up the hillside. When the girl turned around and ran towards the hillside, the prince couldn't help being stunned.But he immediately understood that he was too nervous, from the laughter she made when she ran away, from her posture when she ran away, it all showed that he had succeeded—she was making further teases to him !
