Gaowu invasion, I can see the future

10: Revealing the extraordinary, a charlatan?Yongcheng Street.

Below the apartment building.

The car stopped by the roadside. Before Bai Yu got out, he glanced at Zhang Youpeng squatting under the green trees.

Bai Yu had always been a very punctual person. Seeing this scene, he felt a little embarrassed.

At the same time, he couldn’t help but value such a good friend a little more.

He thought that he could share some information about the Spiritual Qi Awakening.

As for why he didn’t look for relatives?

That was complicated.

Simply put, in this life, his family had severe mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflicts, and his maternal grandparents passed away early.

His parents died in a car accident when he was in his first year of high school.

At 16, he already had strong independent abilities, plus a large sum of compensation from the car accident, so living was not a problem.

Of course, it wasn’t that all the relatives around him seemed bad; some were quite caring in normal times.

It was just that without the parents to connect them, he had little contact with relatives and no deep feelings.

With a lack of family affection, the original owner naturally valued cultivating friendships with classmates more and was well-liked by those around him.

As for love, the original owner also yearned for it deeply, perhaps wanting to make up for a complete home.

This was Bai Yu’s analysis of the original owner’s humanity.

Now, he was the inheritor of all relationships.

He opened the car door.

He waved to Zhang Youpeng.

’Your brothers, I will take good care of them.’

Zhang Youpeng immediately stood up and jogged over.

He excitedly patted Bai Yu and asked curiously, ”Why did you go to the antique street?”

”It’s a long story. I’ll put my things away first, then I’ll come down and chat with you.”

Zhang Youpeng looked at the pile of martial arts Secret Manuals and other books Bai Yu bought, somewhat confused.

Soon, Bai Yu came down.

”Come, let’s talk as we walk.”

Zhang Youpeng cursed when he heard this, ”Holy crap! I’ve been sunbathing for half an hour, and you’re still making me walk? I thought you’d take care of me, maybe call a taxi or something, boo hoo hoo~”

”I’ll punch every boo hoo monster.”

As he spoke, Bai Yu looked around.

The sun was strong, and there was almost no one on the road.

Seeing this, Bai Yu pulled Zhang Youpeng and walked towards the main campus, whispering, ”I have something serious to tell you.”

Zhang Youpeng was a bit confused but still followed obediently.

After walking for a while.

Bai Yu cleared his thoughts, relaxed a bit, and asked, ”In all your life, have you ever seen anything strange?”

”Strange? What kind of strange?”

”Like supernatural things.”

Zhang Youpeng looked peculiar after hearing that.

He scratched his hair and said seriously, ”Yes!”

Bai Yu was a little surprised: ”Tell me.”

”I heard my mom say that when I was born in the countryside, a white tiger came to my doorstep and kowtowed nine times. The fortune teller said this was the fate of a Supreme. In ancient times, he would at least be an emperor.”

”When I was one year old, a flock of birds flew across the sky, exactly one hundred of them. It was called a Hundred Phoenixes Singing!”

”When I was two, a giant turtle came to my doorstep, passing by three times without entering.”

When he first heard the first one, Bai Yu even wondered if this guy really had such a destiny?

It seems the people around me are amazing!

But then something felt off.

Thinking about it carefully, he was already 21 years old!!! When you were born, the Spiritual Qi Awakening hadn’t even started yet!

Bai Yu gave this guy a big slap directly on his forehead.

”What the heck, you’re fooling me, aren’t you?”

”Hey~! You were the one who fooled me first.”

”How did I fool you?”

”You asked me about supernatural strange things with a serious face, weren’t you planning to fool me? I’ve played this trick to death. Pretending to be serious, fooling people until they’re crippled, and then laughing at them.”

”Keep your voice down.”

”No, you have to let me hit you, otherwise I can’t sleep at night.”

”Go ahead.”

Zhang Youpeng, this strong young man, just lightly patted him, and Bai Yu couldn’t help but laugh, like a child.

After thinking for a moment, he still adjusted his expression and said seriously, ”I’m telling you seriously, there really are supernatural phenomena.”

Zhang Youpeng was stunned, staring intently into Bai Yu’s eyes, and touched his forehead.

”A bit hot, feverish?”

”Sunburn.”

”Not having an episode?”

”No.”

”Then tell me, what exactly did you experience to say such crazy things?”

”Just last night’s incident.”

”Last night? Car accident!?”

”Yes. I tracked that car with a drone the whole time. The culprit abandoned the car and jumped into the river.”

”I know, the news reported it.”

”But before he entered the river, he revealed a merman form.”

Zhang Youpeng’s eyes widened, staring intently at Bai Yu, wanting to see if this guy was messing with him.

”!!! Really? Did you bring the recording?”

”It was taken by the Official.”

”...You know, your answer sounds a lot like a Jianghu swindler. A set of glib talk, but no evidence when asked.”

But Bai Yu took out his phone.

Zhang Youpeng raised an eyebrow, thinking Bai Yu was bold enough to secretly keep a backup.

Who knew, what he saw was a group chat.

It was the group the investigator asked Bai Yu to join.

Why did Bai Yu blatantly violate the investigator’s rules?

Heh~ At times like this, those who stick to the rules are the ones who don’t know how to adapt.

The Official’s management was so lenient, they clearly considered that informed individuals would leak secrets to those around them.

The slow spread of the Spiritual Qi Awakening news in this way was a good thing.

It was like a powerful bomb slowly releasing its power; by the time it truly exploded, the destruction wouldn’t be as great.

At least eighty percent of the informed individuals in this group would leak information!

After all, in the face of such a major crisis, finding some reliable people to stick together was the only way to feel somewhat safe.

Blindly adhering to the rules only meant always being a step behind.

Zhang Youpeng scrolled through the chat history, seeing various pieces of information.

The key was that there were pictures!

But he still couldn’t help but say, ”Where did you hire these actors? So professional! The plot is flawless.”

”Hehe~ Alright, then I won’t show you. If you ask me later, I won’t know anything either.”

”Hey, hey, hey, I was wrong, Brother Yu, I was wrong, okay~!

Next, Zhang Youpeng naturally asked a flurry of questions.

Bai Yu also told him a lot of information he knew, besides the Golden Finger.

Of course, he also mixed in some of his own thoughts.

”The world is so dangerous, what should we do?”

”You ask me? How would I know? I’ve only just come into contact with this new world.”

”You think, should I tell my parents?”

”We young people are more adaptable and open-minded. But older people are different. However, this is something you have to consider yourself.”

”Sigh, if only there was a direction to strive for.”

”Who says there’s no direction? Follow me, and you’ll soar.”

...You haven’t awakened any Divine-Grade talent.

”But we have brains, right? Let’s take it one step at a time. Telling you also means having another brain, more ideas. Many hands make light work.”

As they chatted, they approached the school.

Zhang Youpeng remembered the other roommates.

”Oh, by the way, Li Hua’s family is so rich, could they have known already?”

”Hard to say, maybe they’ve known for a long time.”

”That brat, he’s in for it when he comes back from vacation! And Wang Haobin, well, that pretty boy only knows about dating, he probably doesn’t know. As for Liang Yunfei, the internet addict, he definitely doesn’t know anything either, otherwise how could he play games so calmly. Oh, and Sun Yi!”

”Sun Yi? Who’s that?”

”Holy crap! There are six of us in the dorm, have you forgotten? He was still in school in his freshman year. But he hasn’t been seen in his sophomore and junior years. Now it seems, this guy is very suspicious.”

Bai Yu really had no impression of this person, but hearing this, he did recall him.

”It’s possible. He studied quite diligently in his freshman year, it’s unlikely he’d suddenly abandon his studies like that. The key is that the school didn’t take any action either.”

Although the two chatted for a long time, they still didn’t figure out their future path.

But for Bai Yu, not having to keep it bottled up and being able to discuss these things with a familiar person was incredibly comfortable!

What’s more, Bai Yu had something to rely on; the wordless heavenly book was already in his hands.

During the afternoon soccer game, Zhang Youpeng looked worried, afraid that his classmates might suddenly turn into monsters and pounce on him.

Bai Yu also witnessed his own appearance on the first morning after receiving the news.

After playing soccer, when they took a taxi back, Zhang Youpeng even made Bai Yu carefully check if the driver was a monster in disguise.

The strong young man’s frightened look was quite amusing.

At six in the afternoon, while it was still bright, Bai Yu returned to the apartment building, bought an iron basin, and quickly went back.

He took out the bag of books, looked at the six books with blank covers, and took a deep breath.

”Time to burn!”
