Chapter 100 I Want a Lot
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhilu turned his head to check and suddenly found that Wu An appeared in the cave behind him.
"Wu An? Why are you here? Didn't I ask you to search for the formation parts?"
However, Wu An said nonchalantly, "What's there to investigate? The Holy Buddha has returned to normal, the Buddha's disciples and the Shura Clan have been apprehended, and the matter is resolved!"
"What???"
Zhou Zhilu looked at him in disbelief and followed Wu An out of the cave in a daze.
However, he did not expect that Lord Wu Hou, Yu Haozhong, and Venerable Du Shang were waiting outside the cave.
I only heard Lord Wu Hou explain: "Zhilu, the Holy Buddha has arrested all those who are related to the ancient evil, and the ancient evil has been sealed again. Our mission is completed, and we can return to the capital soon."
The Venerable Dushang standing by also said with a smile, "This time it is our Buddhist sect's fault, so we are willing to take all responsibility. This time, the Buddhist and Taoist knowledge discussion will be considered a victory for the Taoist sect."
Zhou Zhilu stared at everything around him with wide eyes. He didn't expect that everything could be solved so easily. It was really... a bit of a dream.
I'm not dreaming...
Wu An put his arm around Zhou Zhilu's shoulders and said unhappily, "What's wrong? Isn't it good enough that the problem has been solved? Don't you still trust my father and Venerable Dushang?"
Zhou Zhilu quickly explained, "No, no, I just... was a little dazed for a moment, hahaha. As long as it's resolved, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."
Following the crowd back to the Buddhist world, I found that many people were repairing the pagoda and the affected houses. Everything seemed so prosperous.
Now that the Buddhist matter was resolved, Yu Haozhong and the others prepared to return. Before leaving, Yu Haozhong said to Zhou Zhilu:
"Xiao Zhou, I think you're a good young man, very much to my liking. I wonder what you think of Xiao Yao?"
Zhou Zhilu was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Yu Haozhong in surprise. He only heard him say, "Come to the Yu family more often in the future. I think Xiaoyao treats you well, so you should communicate more."
After the Yu family left, Zhou Zhilu returned to the inn with a confused mind.
At this time, Wu An pushed the door open again with an excited look on his face and shouted, "Zhilu! The capital has replied. My father reported the case to the capital, and now the capital has replied!"
Zhou Zhilu said sluggishly: "Hmm...what do you say in the capital?"
Wu An unfolded the letter and said, "The first part talks about Buddhism, and the second part talks about you!
"They said you made great contributions in this case, so they will promote you when you return. Moreover, the emperor thinks you are a good person and is interested in recruiting you as his consort!
"But Fuyesi thinks Ling Qingxue is also good, so you don't have to make a decision so quickly."
"Huh???" Zhou Zhilu stood up suddenly and looked at Wu An in disbelief.
Unexpectedly, Wu An continued, "What's more, the letter said that Brother Tu Qing found your biological parents, and they are not dead!"
“I’m going???”
"It even has their names written on it, so it must be real. They're Zhou Shuai and Song Xia!"
Zhou Zhilu suddenly froze in place, the two simple names stirring up a huge wave in his mind.
He was very familiar with these two names; they were indeed his parents.
But... they were my parents in my previous life!
When I came out of the orphanage, the only clues about my parents were these two names. I had been looking for them for so long and couldn't find them, so how could I have forgotten them?
"Heh... I was saying, it turns out I was really dreaming..."
At this moment, Zhou Zhilu completely questioned the world before him. Everything he heard and saw was labeled an illusion.
In an instant, the whole world began to tremble, as if an earthquake had struck. At the same time, a loud voice suddenly rang out in the sky.
"Brother Zhou, wake up, wake up quickly!"
The world before him suddenly became hazy. In the illusion, Wu An came over and asked with concern, "Zhilu! What's wrong with you? Why did you faint?"
Immediately, everything in front of me suddenly became pitch black.
"Brother Zhou! Wake up! If you don't wake up, I'll slap you in the face!"
Liang Yuan's familiar voice entered Zhou Zhilu's mind, causing Zhou Zhilu to suddenly open his eyes.
“Huff…Huff…”
Zhou Zhilu was seen gasping for breath and looking around in panic.
It was dark all around, but I could vaguely see that I was in an underground tunnel.
At this time, Liang Yuan was squatting beside him, shaking himself hard.
"Hahaha, you finally woke up!" Liang Yuan said in surprise when he saw Zhou Zhilu waking up.
"What's wrong with me?" Zhou Zhilu asked in confusion. He felt his brain was a little slow, as if he had not yet recovered from the illusion just now.
Liang Yuan helplessly explained, "We...we fell into their trap the moment we came in!
"Do you remember that when we entered the passage, a bell suddenly rang?"
Zhou Zhilu thought about it and nodded.
“It was that bell that put all of us into a dream!
"But it's a good thing because I've been in the Western Regions for a long time, and spiritual skills are quite common there, so I usually carry a piece of protective gear to protect against spiritual attacks, and this is it."
Liang Yuan pointed to a round jade pendant around his neck and continued, "I was the first to notice something was wrong, and thanks to the jade pendant, I didn't fall into a dream right away.
"But by then you had all fallen to the ground, and then I heard footsteps from deep in the passage. I was almost unable to hold on, so I could only grab you, who was closest to me, and hide.
