Zhou Chu

Pushing open the door, Lu Li entered the house and saw the burly young Young Master Zhou sitting on a long bench, gulping down water from a teacup. He didn't react to Lu Li's arrival. After finishing his water, Young Master Zhou gestured and asked, "You scholar over there, what's your name? What brings you here?"

"My name is Lu Li!" Lu Li introduced himself, causing Young Master Zhou's expression to shift as he asked, "Where are you from, scholar? Are you from Wu Commandery Wu County?"

"That's right!" Upon hearing the place name, Lu Li, though unsure of the location, readily admitted it, observing the Young Master Zhou with a faint smile. Some data flashed across Zhou's eyes, eventually forming a panel:

[Young Master Zhou]

[Body Assessment: 5.00; Life Energy Derivation: 4.8]

[Soul Assessment: 2.3; Spiritual Energy Derivation: 1.2]

[Category: Human]

[Special Abilities: (1) Innate Divine Strength: His strength will far exceed that of ordinary people, (2) Fearless Spirit: Effect unknown, (3)?]

[Weakness: Normal human weaknesses?]

[Review: This guy is the main character, cling to his furry legs!]

This is the information Lu Li obtained after using his newly acquired Reconnaissance skill to Reconnaissance this Young Master Zhou. His physical attributes are more than twice that of Lu Li's, while the data on the Bone Lady was affected by some unknown interference and failed to be read.

This skill consists of seven modules. The Magic Module Extraction magic power. Although Lu Li can mobilize magic power himself now, it is too wasteful of his energy. Then, the magic power is injected into the Control Module's vision, set to solidify for three seconds to start, followed by the Rule Module's detection, reading, information, and concealment, and finally the Form Module's panel.

Of the seven modules mentioned above, only the Magic Module was obtained by Lu Li through exchanging Battle Qi Module, for which Lu Li paid half the transaction fee of 25 Game Points. The other modules were either purchased from the store or acquired from the forum. The acquisition fees were somewhat higher, so for this skill, Lu Li paid a total of 680 Game Points and one Battle Qi Module.

Although this skill is relatively complete, it still needs to have many modules added. For example, there is an anti-interference module for breaking through True Knowledge, and the concealment module also needs to be strengthened. If it weren't for these modules, Lu Li estimated that he would be discovered by Young Master Zhou immediately when he activated this skill.

"I never expected that you, scholar, would be from the Wu Commandery Lu Clan. I have long admired the Lu family's reputation. My name is Zhou Chu, courtesy Ziyin. I am a rough man, so please don't mind me, scholar." Young Master Zhou Chu clasped his hands in a fist and said. Sure enough, this Young Master Zhou Chu was the protagonist of the Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils ".

"Young Master Zhou is naturally Bold Spirit and unconventional, possessing the bearing of a hero. How could I possibly mind?" Lu Li sat down on a wooden stool and said to Zhou Chu.

"Hahaha, as expected of the young master of the Lu family, unlike those cowards who are so obsequious and treat me, Zhou Chu, as an oddity. Just looking at me annoys them. Scholar Lu, just call me Ziyin. I wonder what your courtesy name is, Brother Lu?" Zhou Chu was unusually happy. His father died early, and he was raised by his mother from a young age. His mother spoiled him too much, and coupled with his Innate Divine Strength and extraordinary martial arts skills, he became unrestrained and disregarded etiquette, running rampant in the countryside and becoming a scourge that the people avoided like the plague.

"Lu Mou's courtesy name Yingzhi." Lu Li's mind raced. He had previously learned that this game was related to the previous era and had specifically looked up some information about the previous era, so he understood what a courtesy name was and casually chose one for himself.

Normally, people would avoid him like the plague, but Lu Li praised him so highly that Zhou Chu was overjoyed. Upon hearing Lu Li's words, he happily shouted to the inner room, "Hey you inside, bring another cup! I want to have a good drink with Scholar Lu. It's a pity there's no wine here, otherwise I would definitely have a good drink with Yingzhi!"

The man, pale and thin, pushed open the door to the inner room and walked in. He nervously handed over a cup and boiled a kettle of water, placing it on the table before carefully retreating. Meanwhile, the little girl was peeking halfway out of the inner room, her dark little eyes fixed on Lu Li.

Lu Li smiled at the little creature, which immediately shrunk back into the inner room. Turning around, Zhou Chu poured tea into a cup and said heartily, "Come, come, Yingzhi, have a cup of tea. Tomorrow, come with me to Yangxian City. I'll treat you to good food and drinks!"

"No problem, no problem!" Lu Li took the teacup and watched the tea leaves steaming in the hot water. His expression changed slightly, and his hand inadvertently touched the hot water. It felt cold to the touch, but to the naked eye, the spot was red from the heat. Knowing this, Lu Li pretended to be burned and dropped the teacup with a tremor.

Zhou Chu's expression changed as he saw Lu Li wink at him, point at the kettle, and shake his hand. Zhou Chu narrowed his eyes, realizing that there might be something wrong with the water. His blood and qi condensed, becoming fiery and intense, and something around him seemed to dissipate.

Then Zhou Chu saw that the tea leaves in the tea were actually pieces of pale fingernails with chunks of flesh, and the water was icy cold river water, and unusually viscous, as if mixed with saliva. If he had to describe it, it was the water that people vomit after falling into the water and being rescued.

Zhou Chu flew into a rage, spitting several times before slamming his large, fan-like hand on the wooden table, cracking it open. His roar echoed through the sky, "You lowly wandering ghost, how dare you plot against your Grandpa Zhou!"

Zhou Chu stood up and said to Lu Li beside him, "Yingzhi, don't be afraid. They're just a few brats. Watch me wipe them out."

After saying that, Zhou Chu went straight into the inner room. Lu Li got up and followed. As soon as Zhou Chu went in, the sallow-faced and emaciated man rushed out from behind the door. His face was ferocious, and he exhaled a large cloud of black gas, which enveloped Zhou Chu's face.

Meanwhile, the Bone Lady outside the courtyard also entered. Her bones creaked and groaned, and bone fragments emerged from her body as she lunged at Lu Li. The bone fragments shimmered with a blood-red light, giving her an eerie appearance. If one were to be stabbed, it was hard to imagine what kind of injury one would suffer.

Lu Li chuckled. Did they think he was an easy target? He shifted his stance, and Shadow Magic coalesced in his hand into a long spear. With a flick of his wrist, Lu Li forced the Bone Lady aside, then swung the spear with both hands, shooting it like a startled swan, striking the skeletal woman between the eyebrows, piercing her skull. The spear tip penetrated her head, but the Bone Lady continued to groan and scream, flailing her arms and legs at Lu Li, with red-stained white bone fragments spreading across her body.

Lu Li flicked his spear, and Shadow Magic surged into the Shadow Spear, dispelling its eerie aura. Lu Li's Eye of Detection finally obtained information about it, and the skull crumbled into a pile of bones as the Shadow Magic surged through it.
