Chapter 248: 245 Gouzi’s Memories
Lu Wuyi’s statement directly frightened the girl into a confused stupor.
She stood there, dumbfounded, not knowing what to do next.
Lu Wuyi then pressed harder.
“Don’t play dumb, I know you haven’t lost your memory.”
“How could it be such a coincidence that you lose your memory right when you arrive, and Gouzi just dies?
Also, why is there absolutely no record of you before you came to Fucheng, even after the Governor of Jiangnan, my adoptive mother, had your background checked for three days and found nothing?
There are too many irregularities about you. I suspect you’re playing a distressed act to get close to me.
Tell me, who sent you to approach me?
Is it someone from Gutian or Jiangbei? What’s their objective? To get at Little Skeleton’s phone or something else?”
“I advise you to confess honestly, or I will make you wish you were dead.”
Lu Wuyi was especially fierce at this moment, and his ferocity made the already baffled girl burst into tears.
Tears are a woman’s best weapon, especially for those skilled in their use.
The girl’s crying was pitiful to behold.
It left Lu Wuyi, who had just been extremely fierce, suddenly without any idea of what to do.
He could only let Dudu handle it while he scratched his head and left the reception hall.
As Lu Wuyi stepped out of the reception hall, the hand scratching his head dropped to his side, and his expression calmed.
This had been a test by Lu Wuyi.
He suspected that someone was manipulating him.
And if it was indeed someone’s doing, the role this woman played in this matter was intriguing.
Whoever she was, her purpose was definitely clear: to get close to him.
Otherwise, her existence had no meaning.
And now that Lu Wuyi had voiced his suspicions, it could serve two purposes.
One was to probe, to test this girl and the people behind her.
If there indeed were people behind her, they would certainly react next, trying to dispel Lu Wuyi’s suspicions.
The other purpose was to emit false signals.
To let people believe that he was still merely doubting this girl’s identity. They wouldn’t know that the Undead Transformation of Gouzi had already progressed significantly.
Soon, Lu Wuyi might be able to transform Gouzi fully and obtain the clues he wanted from him.
This way, it could make the opponents lower their guard.
“Keep a good eye on her!”
After telling Li Kai to watch the girl for him.
Lu Wuyi turned back to his studio and completely finalized the plans for Gouzi’s Undead Transformation.
After sorting out the plans for Gouzi’s Undead Transformation, Lu Wuyi didn’t start transforming Gouzi right away. Instead, he first took Little Skeleton to see those that had been delivered over the past three days.
Twenty-seven first-evolved and seven second-evolved.
A total of thirty-four Little Skeletons, and Lu Wuyi glanced over them, mostly Skeleton Warriors.
Or perhaps it should be said that the first-evolved were all Skeleton Warriors, and the second-evolved were all Skeleton Knights.
Lu Wuyi didn’t hesitate.
He told Little Skeleton to take those seven Skeleton Knights under his command, and then he began to pick and choose among the twenty-seven first-evolved Little Skeletons.
Little Skeleton could take fifteen underlings, and already having four, it seemed he could only take eleven more, but actually, he could take thirteen.
Two of them could combine evolve with the original two boars to become “Steel-armored Boar Knights.”
This meant that, subtracting the seven second-rank ones, Lu Wuyi could choose six more.
But considering more skeletons would still be delivered, Lu Wuyi planned to pick just two more first-evolved Skeleton Gunners.
He decided to fill the ten slots for Little Skeleton “Skeleton Commander” first.
After Little Skeleton took these nine new underlings under his command.
Lu Wuyi sent an order to Zhang Wentao, requesting a batch of materials be sent to him.
Once these materials arrived.
Lu Wuyi started to get busy.
What he busied himself with was not the “Steel Armor Skeleton Knights” but the Undead Transformation of Gouzi.
Clearly, this move was meant to divert attention.
In the process of Gouzi’s Undead Transformation.
The routine was the same as before, set up a cauldron, put Gouzi and the ingredients inside it, and arrange a ritual formation outside the cauldron.
After everything was in place, Lu Wuyi let Little Skeleton commence by igniting the ingredients in the cauldron with the Ghost Fire Skill.
As the materials in the cauldron were set aflame, dark, eerie flames burned, activating the ritual beneath, turning the cultivation room into a sinister scene.
Several hours later.
The flames in the cauldron extinguished, leaving only a pristine white skeleton of Gouzi quietly lying there.
Now came the most crucial step of the ritual.
Lu Wuyi stepped forward, took out a can of blood, and with a small knife, made a cut on his own body. After letting out a bit of his blood, he poured both the blood from the can and his own blood over the skeleton of Gouzi.
As the blood poured in, the ritual was fully activated.
A surge of soul fluctuation emerged from Gouzi’s skeleton, a faint Soul Fire appearing within Gouzi’s skull.
With the emergence of the Soul Fire, a temporary soul connection was naturally established between Lu Wu and Gouzi. At the same time, a flood of memories surged from Gouzi toward Lu Wu.
Lu Wu’s vision began to see the world from Gouzi’s perspective.
The first scene that appeared was from when Gouzi had just emerged from the Sea Suppression Tower, an unremarkable scene.
What Gouzi knew, Lu Wu already knew.
Next, what appeared before Lu Wu was the situation inside the Inheritance Tower.
From here on, everything that appeared was unknown to Lu Wu.
Gouzi had witnessed the entire encounter between Kong Yi and Lin Jianying, allowing Lu Wu to see, for the first time, Kong Yi’s persecution of Lin Jianying.
He heard what Kong Yi had planned to do to Lin Jianying, to Dudu, and to him.
This made Lu Wu so furious that he nearly bled from anger.
Fortunately, it seemed that Kong Yi was killed by the rich woman. However, just before his death, he transformed into a blood light and entered Lin Jianying’s body.
After this, it was outside the Inheritance Tower.
After leaving the Inheritance Tower, Lu Wu, through Gouzi’s viewpoint, discovered that Jiang Yue Xing had visited Lin Jianying secretly at night several times after sending them home.
And it wasn’t just once, but several times.
The first time was to check on Lin Jianying’s health and to ask about the “Gate” matter.
What exactly was said Gouzi didn’t hear clearly; it was quite tired at the time and fell asleep after a few words.
The second time, one night, Lin Jianying came back from somewhere, and to Gouzi, he seemed like a completely different person, unusually fierce.
That night, Jiang Yuexing came over.
In the dark room, Jiang Yuexing coldly stared at Lin Jianying, “This is the first time and also the last time. If there’s a next time, I will kill you myself!”
The third encounter.
It was the night Lin Jianying told Lu Wu he was leaving. Jiang Yuexing came to see him and said only one sentence.
“Since you choose to leave, then never come back!”
This was also the last time Lin Jianying and Jiang Yuexing met, to Gouzi’s memory.
Upon seeing this, Lu Wu suddenly understood.
Why, despite entrusting the rich woman to protect Lin Jianying, things still went wrong, why it took three days to look up a woman’s identity, only to find nothing.
The rich woman had not intended to protect, nor had she planned to look for Old Lin.
It was even possible that Gouzi was killed by the rich woman.
And all of this was likely due to Kong Yi’s final blood transformation and the rich woman’s discussion about the “Gate” with Old Lin.
Unfortunately, Gouzi fell asleep at a crucial moment, missing out on that key information, which made Lu Wu especially upset, but he could only continue following Gouzi’s memories.
Following Gouzi’s memories further.
Then, Gouzi followed Lin Jianying as he left.
First returning to Quan City for a tribute visit to Granny Li, then he bought a ticket straight to Lingnan.
After that, Lin Jianying encountered the Wu family trio at the Demon Cave.
Then Lu Wu watched as Lin Jianying was deceived by the three members of the Wu family.
Watched as Lin Jianying was tricked out of both his color and his life.
Finally, Old Lin and a goblin were brutally crushed to death.
When he saw that scene, Lu Wu’s whole body was surging with blood.

Wishing he could kill those three from the Wu family himself.
Unfortunately, Lu Wu couldn’t do anything; he could only continue to watch through Gouzi’s memories.
Looking further, it was the part where Wu Mei said she was coming to find him.
This segment stirred Lu Wu’s anger once again.
And it wasn’t over yet.
When Wu Mei voiced her intentions, Wu Yong and Li Jing forcefully stopped her.
That woman was crazy, but those two were not.
They understood the danger of letting her come to Jiangnan; if it wasn’t exposed it was fine, but once exposed, it was almost a certain death scenario.
They felt that the safest course of action was to kill Gouzi, separate it into materials, and make a fortune.
Under the strong opposition from Wu Yong and Li Jing, the woman had no choice but to accept her fate.
However, on a certain day after they killed Lin Jianying, a mysterious person suddenly found her.
Claiming to offer her a chance to change her fate.
And then that mysterious person whispered something in her ear.
Gouzi, crouched in the corner, watched as the woman’s expression gradually twisted.
After that, Gouzi saw a group of people suddenly appear, taking down the Wu family of three and this dog as well, and injected something unknown into it.
After that, Gouzi fainted.
Its memory also abruptly ended.
