Chapter 115 Misunderstanding with the Yu Family
After hearing the news that Zhou Zhilu had woken up, Fusu, Yu Yao, Wu Houye and others rushed to visit him.
But when asked about what happened before Zhou Zhilu fell into a coma, Zhou Zhilu just shook his head blankly.
He only remembered that he was using the "Book of Boundaries" to absorb the scattered ancient evil spiritual energy, and then his soul could no longer support it, and he fainted on the ground.
As for who rescued him afterwards and how he appeared at the door of Fuyesi, Zhou Zhilu had no recollection of it.
Lord Wu Hou frowned when he heard this, not because he suspected Zhou Zhilu was hiding something, but because he was wary of this unknown mystery.
At this time, Lord Wu Hou had his arm reattached with the help of Buddhism, but he was still not used to it and his joints were always aching.
He rubbed his shoulders and said, "Well, at least everything's fine. We'll be back in Beijing in two or three days, so the less trouble, the better."
He immediately stood up and left, sighing as he walked, "I'm getting old. Fighting a battle is really... exhausting. I must quickly send that kid Wu An to join the army..."
After Lord Wu Hou left, Fusu and his gang of younger generations became more relaxed.
He teased directly, "You can really sleep. I thought you were going to sleep forever. Did you have any dreams?"
Zhou Zhilu fell into deep thought after hearing this. He really had a dream, two big dreams at that!
The scene in the first dream should be the scene of the ancient evil being sealed. The reason why I dreamed of this was probably because I absorbed too much of the ancient evil's spiritual energy using the "Book of Boundaries".
But I couldn't imagine that the sacred mountain today was actually transformed by a thin monk... No wonder it is narrow and tall. If it was replaced by a shorter and fatter monk, I'm afraid it would be a completely different scene.
But what really made him concerned was the second dream.
Zhou Zhilu was extremely familiar with those scenes, because that was what happened before he traveled to this world!
I originally thought that I had picked up some protagonist script and that I could have a second life after death.
But now it seems that this is not the case at all. At the moment before his death, his soul was brought to this world!
Who was the owner of that hand? Why had he brought himself to this world? And...what kind of terrifying power did this person possess that he could actually travel across worlds?
Zhou Zhilu naturally could not say that he was hostile to this stranger. After all, if it weren't for the other person, he would not have this second life.
But Zhou Zhilu felt a chill down his spine, wondering what such a powerful person was planning behind his back.
Zhou Zhilu couldn't help but think of the information about time travel that he had recorded in the "Book of Boundaries", on which a red light was still flowing.
Recalling the scenes in the dream, the only clue that can be called now is the tattoo of a fox head on the hand that pulled me into this world!
Speaking of foxes, the only people he knew who were related to foxes... were the Yu family!
Zhou Zhilu couldn't help but look at Yu Yao beside him.
Fusu looked at Zhou Zhilu for a long time without saying a word, lost in thought and reminiscing. Then he looked at Yu Yao and asked, "Did you really dream? Did you dream of Yu Yao?"
His expression changed immediately, and he exclaimed in surprise, "Zhou Zhilu! You, you...you weren't having that kind of dream, were you? I see! No wonder you didn't want to wake up, I understand!"
Zhou Zhilu's face changed, and he hurriedly explained: "What nonsense are you talking about?! How could I possibly have that kind of dream? I think Yu Yao is just thinking about some things that happened before. Don't talk nonsense here!"
Unexpectedly, Fusu suddenly gave a cheeky laugh and said, "Oh? What's wrong with that kind of dream? I'm talking about the kind where you had a misunderstanding that led to a fight, and you were trying so hard to find the truth that you didn't want to wake up... Hehe, what did you think it was?"
Zhou Zhilu looked at Fusu's frivolous expression, rolled his eyes at him, and said through gritted teeth, "Of course I was talking about this kind of dream!
"Miss Yu and I are sincere and respectful to each other, so how could there be any misunderstanding? Don't you think so... Fusu!"
Seeing Zhou Zhilu gritting his teeth, Fusu burst into laughter, patted Zhou Zhilu on the shoulder and said yes repeatedly.
After playing for a while, everyone left one after another. But when they were leaving, Zhou Zhilu suddenly saw Yu Yao give him a look, indicating that he should go outside to talk.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhilu murmured in his heart, thinking that it might be Fusu's joke that made the other party angry. Then he should go find Fusu!
But in the end, he followed without making a sound.
The two of them arrived at a small alley outside Fuyesi, and Zhou Zhilu started explaining, "That Miss Yu... don't mind me, Fusu is just like that, a man with no hair on his lips and no sense of reason..."
"It's okay. I'm not looking for Mr. Zhou for this matter." Yu Yao suddenly interrupted.
Zhou Zhilu asked doubtfully, "Then I wonder what Miss Yu wants to talk to me about?"
Yu Yao hesitated for a moment before asking, "Excuse me, sir, what was that golden book that appeared behind you during the earlier battle?"
Zhou Zhilu was stunned when he heard this. His "Book of Boundaries" was indeed seen by many people around him during the battle at that time, but no one would deliberately ask about such private issues involving the other party's skills or magic weapons.
Why did Yu Yao suddenly ask herself this?
Zhou Zhilu casually explained, "Oh, it's just an ordinary magic weapon."
But Yu Yao suddenly asked, "Is it a magic weapon that can record history and exists in the body..."
Zhou Zhilu's expression instantly turned cold, and he frowned slightly and asked, "What do you mean, Miss Yu?"
Seeing this, Yu Yao quickly explained, "Don't misunderstand, Master Zhou. I have no ill intentions. It's just... my Yu family might know some news about your family."
Zhou Zhilu looked at the other person in surprise, his mind once again recalling the arm with the fox head tattoo. He asked, "Excuse me, Miss Yu, does anyone in your Yu family have a fox head tattoo on their arm?"
Yu Yao was puzzled as to why Zhou Zhilu suddenly asked this question, and replied with a strange look on her face, "Although my Yu family's martial arts are related to foxes, we don't tattoo foxes on our bodies...
"As far as I know, there aren't any. But my Yu family is large, and perhaps someone is particularly fond of foxes and has actually tattooed a mark on their body."
Zhou Zhilu naturally remained on guard upon hearing this. He clasped his fists and said, "Miss Yu, you've got the wrong person. I grew up alone, without a father or mother. I don't have a family, and I don't want one. I have other things to do, so I'll take my leave now."
After saying this, Zhou Zhilu turned around and left, but in his heart he was thinking about how to deal with the other party. After all, the other party seemed to know something about the Book of Boundaries...
Seeing Zhou Zhilu was about to leave, Yu Yao's face became anxious and she whispered, "Wait! Master Zhou, do you still remember the question you asked me when you first came to the Western Regions: What is the surname of the fifth ancient family?
"I'll tell you the answer now, sir. The fifth ancient family... is surnamed Zhou!"
