Chapter 1188: All Tricks
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lu Shu explained patiently to Coral, “The sentence ‘I will recognize you even if you turn into ashes’ is normally said to enemies…”
Coral was stunned for a moment. “Why?”
“Look, although the literal meaning means that you remember someone very vividly and will never forget that person no matter what, but the pre-condition is that the person had already turned into ashes…” Lu Shu could not stand her poor Mandarin skills. If he found out who Coral’s teacher was, he would make sure that person got a lesson from him in the future…
Coral laughed while covering her mouth. “I see, so how should I say it?”
“Er,” Lu Shu replied after giving it some thought, “You should say, ‘even if the world ends, I will never forget you.’”
As Lu Shu was teaching Coral, Coral suddenly smiled and said, “That’s great.”
Lu Shu was dumbfounded.
Did he get tricked?! Why did it feel weird?!
He suddenly realized that Coral, the once naive girl, was no longer so naive.
She knew how to trick others but was also more vivid.
Lu Shu suddenly felt that he had yet to get an answer to his question. Now, it seemed like Coral had regained her memory. However, he had absolutely no idea about when and how she regained her memory!
Coral purposely diverted the topic as though she did not want Lu Shu to ask her about it. She only gave Lu Shu one answer.
However, for some reason, Lu Shu suddenly felt that all was good as long as she regained her memory and everything else was not important.
However, both of them were still rather foreign. This foreign feeling was not because both of their strained relations.h.i.+p but rather an instinct that all adults get.
Sometimes, the reason why an adult stopped being close to his friend was not because their relations.h.i.+p got strained but rather because he was unsure if his friend would still treat him as closely as before.
Suddenly, the King Cow turned over and said impatiently, “Alright, stop flirting.”
Lu Shu was unhappy. “Just lead the way and mind your own business. What is the method that you were talking about?”
“I will let you know when we reach, don’t be impatient,” said the cow.
Suddenly, Lu Shu asked, “Er… how are you related to your subordinates?”
“They are my descendants. We are a family.” The King Cow looked at Lu Shu as though he was an idiot.
However, Lu Shu said, “Look, in the human world, there would always be a few disrespectful individuals in the family. Their family members would chase them out and disown them. Do you have any descendants whom you want to disown…”
The King Cow suddenly became wary. What on earth, he was not satisfied with messing around with the plants but also wanted to mess around with the cows?
Lu Shu was in the midst of replenis.h.i.+ng the celestial map species and wanted to put the new species he saw into the celestial map. However, all the creatures avoided them along the way and Lu Shu thought that the cow was a species too…
“Look, you never talked about the details regarding the mysterious young man. Didn’t he enter the forbidden land? Moreover, he could leave whenever he wanted, why aren’t you looking after him?” Lu Shu asked curiously.
“This is not something you should be asking, and he is not someone whom you should care about,” said the King Cow, “If you understand him well enough, you would not want to b.u.mp into him again.”
“He looks pretty friendly,” said Lu Shu. He had fortunately managed to hide his ident.i.ty in the past as he knew that if someone was deliberately looking for him, if they were unable to distinguish if he was a friend or a foe, he would better not reveal his ident.i.ty.
This was a principle in the future’s world of unknowns. Perhaps nothing would happen to him if he revealed his ident.i.ty but who would dare to bet on that?
At this moment, even the King Cow was unaware that the mysterious young man was looking for Lu Shu!
“Do you think he is friendly just because he looks friendly?” sneered the King Cow, “The lesser you know, the better. In fact, you desperately want to leave the barrier but you don’t actually know if it’s a good or bad thing to do so.”
At this moment, the King Cow suddenly said, “We’re here! Don’t make any noise!”
Lu Shu looked ahead and saw tall trees in front of him. The trees covered the entire sky and although it was nothing comparable to the World Tree, it was still majestic enough to awe Lu Shu.
Along the way, he had never seen such a majestic-looking tree as the forbidden land did not seem to be a suitable place for plants to grow.
If not for the magical energy, Lu Shu would have thought that the land had been abandoned.
Lu Shu asked softly, “There’s something you are scared of in this remains?”
The King Cow looked at Lu Shu embarra.s.sed. “If anyone feels that he was invincible, that person would be extremely ignorant.”
“I didn’t expect you to have such a mentality, looks like I have underestimated you,” said Lu Shu.
The King Cow choked. Am I here to discuss philosophy with you?!
“What’s with the tree in front?” asked Lu Shu.
“Keep quiet!” warned the King Cow.
However, at this moment, a crisp voice was heard from the tree. “Stupid cow, you are here?”
Lu Shu realized that both the King Cow’s ears suddenly stood up and the hair on his ears stood up in anger. Then, the King Cow said without emotion, “Yes, I am here.”
The King Cow glared at Lu Shu and continued walking with Coral and Lu Shu. Then, he said as he lowered his voice, “Before nightfall, no matter if you succeed or not, you must leave this tree!”
Lu Shu and Coral glanced at each other. He thought that it was the voice of a girl, clear and pleasant to the ears.
However, the King Cow was extremely wary of the little girl, acting as though she was extremely terrifying.
Lu Shu was not foolish. He would not mock the King Cow for being afraid of a girl at this moment as he knew that there must be something wrong for such unusual things to happen. In the forbidden land full of terrifying creatures, he could not underestimate any people or things!
The King Cow walked past the tree with Lu Shu and Coral. Lu Shu suddenly saw a girl sitting on the tree. She looked as though she was 14 or 15 years old and her body was covered by leaves.
“Stupid cow, who are they?” asked the girl, “You haven’t brought any humans here for a long time. Yesterday, Brother Miao Miao came over and told me that we have a chance of getting out. Did he tell you that?”
“He didn’t tell me that,” said the King Cow emotionlessly, “They are humans.”
Lu Shu was stunned. Could the Brother Miao Miao be the mysterious young man? The name was weird…
