Chapter 118: The Police Arrive

Over this past month, Zhou Yu gained wealth of over three million, nearly four million. But he felt that besides this wealth, he obtained something even more precious.

For example, the changes to his physical fitness brought by the Bone Blood Pill and the Wind Eagle Meat. Most importantly, with the help of things from the Immortal World, he raised some animal companions.

Huzi was definitely the most senior and the smartest among these animals, the deserving big brother.

Thinking of that Little White Fox, Xiaobai, a look of helplessness appeared on Zhou Yu’s face. She really was a little princess. She came on time every day to eat and then went back to the mountain forest to wander and play.

As for Dabao and Xiaobao, one had a calm personality, the other was lively. They really were two different brothers. These three Divine Dogs were the most important part of his household.

Gan Gan and Cui Cui, these two little guys, were experts at acting cute. Just watching them act cute every day made his mood much better.

The Golden Eagle, an animal that joined the family along the way, had now integrated as well. From the first time it unexpectedly barged in and stood on the wall joining the fight, it was clear this Golden Eagle already considered this place home. If there were enemies, it would definitely not just stand by and watch.

Of course, there was also the recently met Xiao Pang, one of the ocean’s overlords, a natural enemy of sharks. Yet in his eyes, it was incredibly cute. It received some benefits from him and repaid him with things from the ocean.

Just like yesterday, when it couldn’t find a suitable thing, Xiao Pang’s mood was very low. It was too embarrassed to eat his food. It really was an adorable dolphin.

These interesting and cute animal companions were the most important part of his life. He spent most of his time every day with them.

Sometimes, interacting with people could feel tiring, but playing with them was carefree.

But the biggest gain of this past month wasn’t any of these things. It was that he learned the Immortal World truly existed, like a scroll slowly unfurling before his eyes.

Zhou Yu reflected on the past month’s experiences, a look of longing appearing on his face. In just one month, he had achieved these gains. The future would definitely be better, more beautiful. Life on Earth would improve. Similarly, his understanding of the Immortal World would become deeper and deeper.

“It’s been over a month since I got the Radio. Today, I successfully harvested that first wealth. I should celebrate. Let’s do Wind Eagle bone soup and stewed meat,” Zhou Yu said with a smile, talking to himself.

Hearing his words, Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao nearby pricked up their ears and immediately stood up from the ground.

“You guys wait. I’ll go stew the bones first. It’ll take a few hours. Later, I’ll stew some meat for you to eat first,” Zhou Yu smiled. It was only around eight or nine in the morning. The bones would probably be ready by two in the afternoon.

This time, he put some corn in the pot to stew with the Wind Eagle bones. Eating too much bone might be a bit greasy. Having some corn at that time would be perfect.

Zhou Yu started stewing the bones first. He would stew the meat a bit later. Although Wind Eagle meat was harder to stew than regular meat, it still took less time than the bones.

By noon, the Wind Eagle meat was ready. Huzi and the others had already gathered around the kitchen door, drooling. Especially Jinzi, standing side by side with Huzi; its already intense gaze became even more fixed.

Zhou Yu first fed Huzi and the others some Wind Eagle meat. Then he left some in the pot, planning to send it over to his parents together once the bones were ready.

While stewing the bones and meat, he sealed the entire kitchen so the aroma wouldn’t drift out.

During the bone stewing, a package from Jing City arrived at his door. Zhou Yu received it and opened it. An ancient-looking sword sheath appeared before him. The unique color of cowhide, plus some patterns on it, made this sheath very beautiful.

Although it was made of cowhide, it wasn’t entirely cowhide. Inside, there were some metal parts to fix the sword sheath’s space. This was his special request; the blade must not touch any part of the sheath’s interior.

Otherwise, with the Green Radiance Flying Sword’s sharpness, it would cut right through. At the sheath’s entrance, there was also a metal piece to ensure it wouldn’t touch the cowhide inside.

Zhou Yu took out the Green Radiance Flying Sword and tried it. It was a perfect fit, just right. He carefully checked it over, confirmed there were no problems, and transferred the payment for making the sheath. Including labor and materials, it was only a few hundred bucks.

Afterward, he continued waiting in the yard. When the bones were ready, he fed Huzi and the others. He also ate some himself, especially the corn cooked inside. With the nutrition from the Wind Eagle bones and the fusion with the Immortal Flavor Fruit, it tasted very refreshing.

After eating a bit, Zhou Yu took the saved bone soup and meat, pot and all, drove the car back home, watched his parents finish eating, had them do some exercise in the yard, and then returned home.

A little past four in the afternoon, he took Dabao and Xiaobao surfing, letting Huzi rest. At the Guomin Food Stall, he also heard about things happening near Xing’an Town.

However, many people were just repeating hearsay. Some said there were a few robbers in the Xing’an Town mountain forest. Others said it was a team of terrorists. The stories got more and more fantastical, almost saying immortals had emerged there.

Zhou Yu shook his head. He didn’t feel there was any great danger. However, Xing’an Town was very close to Taoyuan Village, and some of the mountain forests were connected. There was no guarantee those criminals wouldn’t come over. So, after Dabao and Xiaobao finished surfing, he brought the two dogs home, left them with his parents, and told them to make sure to lock the doors before sleeping.

Dabao’s physical fitness was second only to Huzi’s, and its personality was steady. He felt at ease leaving it with his parents. As for Xiaobao, although its personality was livelier, when encountering trouble, it would definitely not back down.

With the protection of the Dabao and Xiaobao brother duo, he had nothing to worry about. As for his own Old Family House, he had even less to fear. Besides Huzi, there was also Jinzi. The Golden Eagle’s combat power was truly no joke.

Furthermore, his own strength was not the least bit inferior to Huzi and the others. Having taken the Bone Blood Pill and possessing the incredibly sharp Green Radiance Flying Sword, one could say his combat power was off the charts.

Returning to the Old Family House, Zhou Yu also tightly closed the door, told Huzi to be extra vigilant, then lay on the bed, played for a bit, and went to sleep.

By early morning, the Radio still showed no reaction at all, and outside there was no sign of any impending thunder.

According to the weather forecast, new lightning activity would probably occur tomorrow or the day after. As for whether it was accurate or not, that all depended on luck.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yu brought Dabao and Xiaobao back. Then he busied himself in the yard propagating Jade Dew. Close to noon, he received a call from Village Chief Yao. “Xiao Yu, there’s an important matter. I need you to come to the Village Committee. Oh, and bring Huzi.”

An important matter, bring Huzi. Was it someone again looking for Huzi to do an endorsement? Zhou Yu put down what he was doing, took Huzi on an electric bike, and headed straight for the Village Committee.

Arriving at the Village Committee, he saw several people wearing police uniforms. His eyes moved, and he immediately understood everything.

Entering the yard, Zhou Yu saw a familiar person. It was Xu An, who had just bought honey the day before yesterday. Seeing him, this guy quickly came over. “Brother Yu, I wanted to call you earlier, to tell you about this, but my brother wouldn’t let me. By the way, Huzi was my recommendation.”

Hearing this guy’s nonsensical rambling, Zhou Yu understood perfectly. These people were probably that group pursuing the criminals. They came here likely to ask for Huzi’s help. And the person who recommended Huzi was Xu An.

At that moment, a man in police uniform, around thirty years old with a cold, stern face, walked over. He saluted Zhou Yu and took out his credentials. “Hello, I am Xu Hua, Captain of the First Brigade of the Jing City Public Security Bureau Criminal Investigation Detachment. Are you Mr. Zhou Yu?”

Zhou Yu glanced at the credentials and nodded. “I am Zhou Yu. What can I do for you?”

“Mr. Zhou Yu, the matter is confidential. Let’s talk inside,” Xu Hua said, his tone softening a bit after the formal greeting.

“Alright. Huzi, stay outside for now,” Zhou Yu instructed Huzi. Huzi immediately found an empty spot and lay down.

Seeing this, Xu Hua and the surrounding police officers’ faces all showed a flicker of surprise. Ordinary dogs could understand commands and lie down, but for a dog to also find an empty spot like that was quite rare.

Moreover, what surprised them even more was that this dog looked bright-coated, very majestic, even more imposing than their Police Dogs.

“Haha, Bro, see that? The Divine Dog I recommended isn’t bad, right?” Seeing everyone’s attention on Huzi, Xu An, standing to the side, said very smugly.

However, after Xu Hua gave him a cold look, this guy obediently closed his mouth, a look of grievance on his face.
