Chapter 123 122: Treasures of the Gods

Zhou Baiyu had a long dream. In the dream, he saw Dr. A, Sister Lin, and a dark shadow with its back to him.

It seems that many parties are intertwined together, forming a chessboard over a large area.

Then, he discovered that he was the chess piece.

But just when he was about to take a closer look at the chess moves, interpret this dream, and try to get rid of his identity as a chess piece and become a chess player——

He woke up.

After being in a coma for a day and a night, Zhou Baiyu woke up. When he woke up, Zhou Baiyu was in a half-collapsed building.

Not long before, the night demons had been cleaned up outside the building. The air was filled with the aroma of meat.

Many people who woke up were originally frightened when they looked at the corpses of Night Demons on the ground.

But they are really hungry. Once Yongye's magic circle is destroyed, humans will also face a problem - they have gained freedom, but they must solve the problem of survival.

Just like the animals kept in the livestock shed, in the eyes of the night demon, this is charity to humans.

And every bird that walks out of the cage and every fish that returns to the sea must face this choice. But after all, they must run for freedom.

Zhou Shou's behavior of eating meat solved the urgent need of this group of people.

Zhou Baiyu was imprisoned by Zhou Shou in a certain floor of an abandoned building that collapsed in half.

When Wu Xin saw Zhou Shou, he was shocked. He could see a person's destiny, but judging from his ability as a first-level destiny gatherer, the person in front of him seemed to have no destiny at all.

Taotie's destiny?

In a sense, this kind of person is more like the protagonist Long Aotian than those powerful people with destiny.

Behind Zhou Shou, there is luck with the faint traces of ferocious beasts.

Luo Hui told Zhou Shou some things from a certain distance.

Therefore, Zhou Shou knew that this group of people were all slaves who were trapped in dreams and tortured by the eternal night. These people and even himself were rescued by his brother.

I also know that my elder brother seems to be called Jiang Xianwu.

But he couldn't remember his brother's real name. It seemed that when he was very young, he had always called him brother for as long as he could remember.

Later, I changed my name to eldest brother, but I don’t know the name either. The two brothers have different names in different places. The elder brother is always very thoughtful and uses different names when meeting different people.

So he didn't think Jiang Xianwu was his real name. Of course, the name wasn't important either.

Zhou Shou still blocked everyone outside, preventing them from having a chance to meet Zhou Baiyu.

"Ugly monsters, don't come near us until my brother wakes up and before he says he wants to see you, otherwise I won't mind eating human flesh."

The crazy temperament exuded by Zhou Shou made no one doubt that he was telling the truth.

Yun Duo was quite worried, what happened to Jiang Xianwu.

Fortunately, Zhou Baiyu woke up not long after.

In the dilapidated house, the two brothers talked a lot.

"It turns out that big brother used this watch to reverse the darkness. It's really a powerful tool. I may not be able to kill Yong Ye. At least I may not be able to defeat it at night."

"But if there is light, it shouldn't be difficult to kill it."

"Brother, I seem to be running out of time."

After the magic circle of the God of Nightmare and Nothingness ended, everything that bound everyone seemed to have disintegrated.

Time in the circle does not stop, everyone is growing and changing.

But all the rules stopped counting.

Only now are the rules starting to tick again.

As a retrograde man, Zhou Shou's time to stay is different from that of the forerunners.

When the formation ends, the closer the place where the retrograde goes to version 2.49, the longer he can stay.

For example, if he goes to version 1.0 in the future, he can only stay for a short time, but now he can stay for a day and a night or more.

Feeling something strange in his body, Zhou Shou knew that this meant that the rules of the retrograde were back in effect and he was about to go back.

Getting together is always short-lived, but as long as we meet, there are infinite possibilities for the future.

"I will call you Zhou Shou from now on."

"You are the famous Demon King Hunter, a true hunter. From now on, you can call me Zhou Baiyu in private and Jiang Xianwu in front of others."

"Or you can always call me big brother."

Zhou Shou nodded crazily. While Zhou Baiyu was sleeping, Zhou Shou carefully observed Zhou Baiyu. The more he observed, the more satisfied he became. The main points are as follows -

My brother is really good-looking, better-looking than the best I have ever seen.

And - my brother's carrot is so big, he seems to be bigger than me...

He had seen many ugly creatures, so he became even more proud of his brother's good looks.

He also liked the name Zhou Shou very much. Of course, as he said before, even if Zhou Baiyu gave him a name like Goudan, he would definitely like it very much.

That's what Zhou Shou is like.

He couldn't remember his last name at all. What he was thinking at the moment was - so the dead father's last name was Zhou?

In fact, Zhou Baiyu really wanted to say, if you go to version 1.0 in the future... it's best not to kill Da Feng Qi Xi.

Of course, Zhou Shou definitely doesn’t know Da Feng Qi Xi. Zhou Baiyu’s request is that it’s best not to kill people...

But he didn't do this in the end. When the idea came to him, he thought about it again habitually and found that it was not advisable——

"Now it seems that Zhou Shou and I are officially recognized as brothers."

"I can feel that Zhou Shou is a serious brother-controller...but I also have to protect this younger brother."

"The mission given to him by the Seven Demon Emperors is to hunt down the forerunners. If he doesn't comply, I'm afraid it will also arouse suspicion."

"Besides, if what I am changing here is Zhou Shou's future... and Zhou Shou's future is our past."

"Retrograde and forward are opposite directions. If the past is covered, it is difficult to guarantee my future experience."

These thoughts allowed Zhou Baiyu to follow the timeline completely.

He seemed to smell a sense of destiny.

But this in itself is not important.

"After I become a retrograde man, I will be able to see the new timeline, divided according to versions... Brother, I will wait for you in version 2.49. Maybe we will meet again in the future!"

Zhou Baiyu actually always felt that the encounter between him and Zhou Shou was a very strange thing... as if someone was pushing it.

But this is always a good thing.

Before Zhou Shou was about to disappear, Zhou Baiyu asked in order to find a place for the people who had awakened in the Kingdom of Light to go:

"Do you know where this version of the White Witch is in history?"

"Brother, are you going to kill the White Witch? I want to eat her so much! The corruptive characteristics of her body are very tempting."

Zhou Baiyu was embarrassed.

Zhou Shou's problem is quite big... Fortunately, he at least listens to himself.

"No, this group of people need a place to go. I can give them a token to help them find the White Witch."

"As for the White Witch, don't touch her. Just let her grow. You are her uncle, so don't bully her in the future."

Zhou Shou tilted his head like a Shiba Inu, looking at Zhou Baiyu with puzzled eyes.

"Me? The White Witch's uncle? Brother...what are you talking about?"

In terms of timeline, the White Witch is a corrupt species many years older than herself?

Zhou Shou is a child in the 2.0 era. Bai Ling is a child in the 1.4 era.

Obviously, there is a big age gap. Although the corrupt species are almost immortal, Bai Ling basically no longer has a growth trajectory after he grows to a suitable age.

Just like the real face stitched into the body, it also looks like a young man.

Even mental growth is far inferior to that of humans.

But...according to human rules, Bai Ling is many years older than Zhou Shou.

Zhou Baiyu also wanted to understand this:

"You know, the Forerunners always appear in strange versions..."

"Anyway, I recognize her as my daughter."

Daughter?

Zhou Shou was shocked. Although he didn't know the process, he felt greatly shocked.

He used to think that his eldest brother was very powerful, but after he passed out and checked carefully, he found that his eldest brother was actually very weak, quite weak.

But at this moment, the crazy Zhou Shou grew up and realized that there is a kind of person in this world whose power cannot be calculated according to common sense.

"Brother, this is really great! The White Witch's power is actually not far from Hechuan City, and Hechuan City and Linxiang City are very close to each other.

Zhou Shou will gradually get to know Zhou Baiyu's connections in the future.

At the moment, Zhou Shou's figure has become illusory. He is about to return to version 2.49.

After the two brothers solemnly said goodbye, Zhou Shou disappeared without saying a word.

After Zhou Shou disappeared, Zhou Baiyu also felt a little disappointed.

But after thinking about it, it seemed that it didn't matter, he and Zhou Shou would eventually meet again.
To be continued...
