Chapter 15 Antecedents and Consequences
Although it was summer at this time, Zhou Bo didn't feel any warmth, he only felt a little cold in his hands and feet, no matter who it was, in such a remote alley, it would not be too uncomfortable to meet an unknown person and let himself go in and sit. The key is to also know your name and seem familiar with yourself.
However, Zhou Bo is different from others, the more he encounters unknown things that make him afraid, the more he does not allow himself to be afraid, but asks himself why he is afraid.
So he didn't choose to leave, but looked at the other three people: "I don't know the person inside, I don't know what his attitude is, I'm going to go in and have a look, if you don't want to go, you can leave first." β
Several people heard the solemnity in Zhou Bo's tone, and they didn't speak, but just took a step forward to show their attitude.
Du Rui also took a step forward and stuck out her tongue to relieve her tension: "We are teammates." β
Wang Ta also laughed when he heard this: "That's right, the goddess is right, we are teammates, I didn't look down on you before, I thought you were not strong, and we would drag us back, but now it's different, you are my teammate, I naturally have no reason to abandon my teammates, otherwise what if you don't take me to play if your strength goes up in the future?"
Zhou Bo didn't say anything, patted Wang Ta's shoulder, and led the way to the room.
The inside of this room is lower than the outside, and there are two steps at the door, but it does not have the atmosphere of being clammy and cold like Zhou Bo's imagination, but gives people a very comfortable and appropriate feeling.
The room was not large, with a chaise longue, a few stools, a table, and a few back rooms with the door closed.
On the recliner lay a person who looked very young, but gave people the feeling of being very old, looking at him Zhou Bo had a sense of contradiction.
The man saw Zhou Bo walk in and got up from the recliner: "Zhou Bo Xiaoyou, it's a guest when you come, sit down, I'll go and prepare food for you." The voice was vicissitudes and ancient, not even lifeless, completely inconsistent with his appearance.
The contradiction in the hearts of Zhou Bo and the others was even more obvious, Zhou Bo watched him walk into the back room, thinking that he would be safe when he came, and he didn't think much about it, he sat on the stool generously, and beckoned several other people to sit down at the same time.
After a while, the man came over with a few plates of meat, some unknown fruits and wine, and put everything on the table: "I have nothing good to entertain Brother Zhou Bo here, that's all, I'm used to living alone, even these foods, tables and chairs are prepared for you in advance." β
Zhou Bo heard several meanings from his words, first, this person usually lives alone, so how does he know about himself, and second, he knows that he will come here today or recently, and he has prepared in advance. As for other information, Zhou Bo can't analyze it for the time being.
Zhou Bo didn't ask much, picked up the things on the table and ate them, he was hungry, he ate a few bites, and saw that his teammates sitting next to him didn't eat, so he took a fruit and gave it to Du Rui: "Eat it, I tried it, it's not poisonous, this is delicious." β
Du Rui and the others were also hungry, they had been in a nervous state just now, and they didn't have the heart to eat, but at this time, seeing Zhou Bo so relaxed, they also put their minds at ease and ate Haisai all the time.
Soon the things on the table were eaten up, and the owner of the house was a little embarrassed to see this situation: "That's all there is to prepare, and the hospitality is not well received." β
Zhou Bo was still unsatisfied, but it was not easy to accept this, after all, it was someone else who entertained them: "Don't say that, we are full, but it is so delicious that we can't help but eat it all, and I haven't thanked my predecessors for saving my life just now." β
The owner of the house waved his hand absently: "I'm saving those fools, they are the descendants of one of my friends." β
At this time, several other people suddenly yawned, and then actually lay on the table and fell asleep.
Zhou Bo immediately exploded when he saw this, and was about to burst out, but the owner of the house hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't worry, don't worry, these foods may be too replenishing for them, so they will be sleepy after eating." β
Zhou Bohu looked at him suspiciously: "Then why am I okay?"
The owner of the house smiled, but the contradiction appeared again when he smiled: "They are increasing their level through cultivation, you are not, little brother Zhou Bo, these big tonic things are tonics for them, and they are just a more delicious meal for you." I'm just giving them these to make it easier for the two of us to talk. β
Zhou Bo was not relieved when he heard this, but became even more nervous: "What do you know?"
"Don't be nervous, these are what others have told me, and the people who told me are the ones who brought you into this world. You shouldn't be familiar with Luo Fei's name, right?" the owner of the house lay down on the chaise longue again.
"Of course, I'm afraid there are few people in this world who don't know him, what does this have to do with him? And who are you?" Zhou Bo also knew that his nervousness was useless, since the other party mentioned Luo Fei, his own strength, resisting or something, it would definitely be meaningless.
The owner of the house seemed to know that he would ask: "I am a person who has died, and I have been dug out by Luo Fei's predecessors, and I am alive, on the one hand, to take care of my juniors, and on the other hand, to wait for you." β
Without waiting for Zhou Bo to continue asking, he recalled with a smile on his face: "Luo Fei's predecessors are stronger than everyone in this world understands, including me, the things on your body are just made by him, he let you come to this world, on the one hand, to thank you for accompanying her niece to play games, on the other hand, this world is facing some potential crises, seniors he doesn't want to stay here for too long, so these crises need you to solve." β
Zhou Bo's heart was turbulent when he heard this, so far the causes and consequences of many things can be figured out, it turns out that it was Luo Fei himself who was looking for him to accompany his niece before, and then the remuneration was more than 20,000 yuan, and there was such a crossing?
Immediately, many new questions arose: "As far as I know, the human race has driven out more than half of the demonic beasts, and the living space is constantly expanding, I can't think of any crisis?"
The owner of the house touched the ring on his hand: " You know, the current cultivation system has just been formed for more than a thousand years, more than a thousand years ago, there are many cultivators who can live for a long time, and even tens of thousands of years of old antiques, at that time, Luo Fei's predecessors reformed the cultivation system, and used great power to create these rule-like skills, which touched the interests of many people, and many old antiques were born one after another, but they were all killed by Luo Fei's predecessors with one hand, and the rest of the people were so frightened that they didn't dare to come forward again, but they hid it, and the descendants of those old monsters who died, they were unwilling, and they always wanted to subvert the current cultivation system, and even exterminate all the people in the mainstream systemγ β
Zhou Bo understood a little when he heard this, but he was even more confused: "I understand what you said, what I don't understand is that the current cultivation system is obviously much more powerful than before, the most obvious thing is that the previous human beings were in a safe corner, but now they are fighting the demonic beasts and retreating, so why are these people hidden?"
The owner of the house didn't answer him immediately, but got up and poured two glasses of wine, and handed Zhou Bo a glass: "Because they have lived too long, everyone's strength is very terrifying, of course, not all of them think so, and some of them enjoy the current singing and dancing." The cultivation system brought by Luo Fei's predecessors can make people increase their strength quickly, and as long as they want, almost everyone can cultivate, but they can't do it, they have high requirements for qualifications, so the base of cultivation is different, and the battle with Warcraft does not depend on a single person, but the efforts of all mankind, not to mention that the current system has only been formed for more than a thousand years, even if it is the top, it is only on par with them. What's more, there are other, more serious potential crises than these people. The owner of the house said this, his face worried.
