Arriving at the door, Zhou Li quickly opened the door and respectfully invited me in.
I glanced at the room. It was clean and tidy, with a table and a chair.
I was very weak now, so I walked to the chair and sat on it.
Zhou Li knelt down in front of me again with a pop, his eyes were red, and he looked at me excitedly and said: "Sir, I have been waiting for you for a thousand years, and you... you are finally back!"
I looked at him, and I admired him very much. What kind of spirit is this for a person who has been waiting unswervingly for thousands of years for his own thoughts?
Although he is not a human being, it is extremely rare.
"Get up, you don't have to kneel." I said to him.
I'm not used to people kneeling in front of me, especially when it's not me, but Ying Gou, so it's even more awkward.
After hearing my words, Zhou Li quickly stood up and stood respectfully beside me.
I glanced at him, thinking about what to ask him.
I wanted to know what happened in the underworld back then, but he thought I was Yinggou, and Yinggou was a party to the incident back then. He must know what happened back then better than anyone else, so how could I speak?
"Sir, what do you want to ask?" Feeling the awkwardness of the silence, Zhou Li asked me carefully.
I cleared my throat. I felt awkward calling him "Sir". This title made me feel like a Qing Dynasty official with pigtails and a bald forehead. This was all a psychological shadow left by watching Qing court dramas.
But there is no way, Xiaobai has recently become obsessed with Qing palace dramas, which are called nostalgic.
There is indeed something wrong with this zombie's brain. The one who lived in the Qing Dynasty was Empress Su. Although Xiaobai's body is hers, she is just a zombie. She and Empress Su are two completely different existences. A zombie is pregnant with shit.
old.
In particular, this female zombie has watched too many palace fighting dramas in the Qing Dynasty. She acts coquettishly in front of me all day long, saying that she wants to win the favor of her master so that one day she can become the palace official. What the hell!
I shook my head, got rid of these messy thoughts, and said to Zhou Li: "Don't call me "sir" from now on. It sounds awkward, and it's not good for people outside to hear you."
Zhou Li was stunned for a moment and asked with a confused look on his face: "Then what should I call you?"
I thought for a moment and said to him: "Just call me boss from now on. I opened a fortune-telling shop in Jishui."
The old Taoist has always called me boss. This title sounds more pleasant to me, at least it is much better than an adult.
"Okay sir!"
I:".........."
This scene made me a little speechless, and for no reason I thought of Leonardo da Vinci in the movie Star Master.
I knew that Zhou Li was a bit crazy and it would be hard to get used to it in a while, so I just let him go.
"Sir... that boss, now that you are awake, when will we fight back to the underworld and retake the Netherworld Sea? It has been a thousand years. I have been thinking about this day every day." Zhou Li looked at me with burning eyes.
said.
I slapped my forehead with my hand and became even more speechless.
Fight back to the underworld, don't tease big brother.
It's the underworld there. There are countless powerful Yin gods there, and even Ksitigarbha, who makes me shiver when I think about it. Unless I lose my mind, I would go to the underworld to start a war with them.
Not to mention me, even that guy wouldn't dare win the fight. That guy's strength hasn't been restored yet. If he goes to the underworld, he will probably be turned into a scum in seconds.
Even if he regains his strength, he will probably still have to think carefully.
"Well... we'll discuss this issue later. I was seriously injured back then and I haven't fully recovered yet." I could only wave my hand and said.
After hearing my words, Zhou Li nodded solemnly, held his hands tightly, and said, "I understand, now that you are back, my lord, one day you will return to the underworld and take back the Netherworld Sea!"
I looked at him with a headache. This guy is an absolutely fanatical follower of Ying Gou. He wants to fight back to the underworld every day. He has been in the earth for a thousand years, and he is still so fanatical.
Alas, isn’t the salted fish made by Ansheng good?
It would be unsafe if we had to fight and kill them.
"How did you escape from the underworld back then?" I looked at him and asked a little strangely.
In the original battle, Yinggou showed me that countless ghosts besieged the Netherworld Sea, and the boundless Ksitigarbha personally took action, and even Yinggou was subdued.
Zhou Li is not very capable, how did he escape?
"Sir, when the Netherworld Sea was surrounded, I thought I was going to die, but I didn't expect that I was rescued in the end." Zhou Li said respectfully.
I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard his words. There were countless underworld gods and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva present at the time. Who had the ability to rescue him from the underworld?
"Who saved you?" I couldn't help but ask him.
Zhou Li looked at me, with a somewhat awkward expression on his face, and said, "Sir, don't you remember who in the entire underworld had the best relationship with our Netherworld Sea?"
I was stunned for a moment when I heard what he said, and then I couldn't help but want to curse.
It’s not like I’m a damn winner, how do I know who has the best relationship with him?
But I can't say this because I'm pretending to be a winner now.
"Well, I was injured so badly that I don't remember many things." I thought for a moment and said to him.
After hearing my words, Zhou Li clenched his fists tightly, with an angry look on his face, took a deep breath and said, "Ksitigarbha was too cruel to you back then, and you suffered a lot."
I quickly waved my hand and said, "Okay, now is not the time to talk about this. Who saved you back then?"
"Sir, the master of Naihe Bridge personally saved me back then, and she was the only one who could save me." Zhou Li replied respectfully.
Naihe Bridge Master?
This answer confused me again, because I didn't know who the owner of Naihe Bridge was.
However, listening to Zhou Li's words, it seems that Naihe Bridge is not just a bridge in the underworld as in folklore, but an organization, or a force in the underworld.
Back then, countless underworld gods defeated Gou, and the owner of Naihe Bridge was able to protect him, which proves that the power of Naihe Bridge in the underworld cannot be underestimated.
Now I know that the underworld is definitely not as simple as ordinary people think.
Back then, the Sea of Netherworld was one force, and the Underworld was another force. Now there is Naihe Bridge. It seems that the situation in the underworld is very complicated.
And the extremely powerful Ksitigarbha, what kind of force does he belong to?
"Who is the owner of Naihe Bridge?" I couldn't help but ask.
Zhou Li looked at me, a little confused, as if he couldn't figure out why I didn't even know this person.
"I don't know what her name is, but people in the underworld call her Meng Po. She likes to wear red clothes." Zhou Li said slowly.
"What!" When I heard his words, I stood up suddenly and my eyes widened.
