I Have Awakened The Deduction System

295 Wudao Is In Trouble

The reunion in his memory! Why was it in his memory?

Previously, he didn’t know. He only had a feeling, as if he had forgotten something.

Now, he had come to a sudden realization. What he had forgotten were his memories, the memories of his parents, the memories that he had never wanted to think about but kept appearing in his dreams.

A large number of memories rushed into his mind.

In the past, there was joy and sorrow, joy and anger… They all came to his mind, causing Gu Mingzhou’s originally red eyes to shed tears unconsciously.

He finally remembered everything that he had experienced in the past year.

“Is this the so-called going back to the past, tribulation of helplessness?” Gu Mingzhou muttered to himself. He was a little unwilling, but he could only believe it.

He remembered he was being chased by Xu Fengyu, and Zhou Yuanba was the only one who allowed him to escape and enter the ancient battlefield ruins.

He recalled the scene at the banks of the river of forgetfulness, where he had used an instant talisman to escape with the imprisoned Jing Wudao when he faced the hostile Shangguan Fei and the others.

Of course, he also recalled the words Jing Wudao had said to him before he stepped onto the bridge of helplessness!

“Of the three tribulations of the river of forgetfulness, the first tribulation is to predict the future so that you can take precautions before it happens. However, this one is to reminisce about the past and let you experience life.”

The river of forgetfulness tribulation was an illusion of being lost in the future.

As for the ‘tribulation of helplessness’, it was lost in memories.

“So this is what Jing Wudao meant when he was worried about getting lost in it!” after thinking it through, a smile appeared on Gu Mingzhou’s face.

He finally knew why Jing Wudao had warned him repeatedly before he stepped onto the bridge of helplessness.

The only people who could attract Gu Mingzhou here were his parents.

Only when his parents appeared in the illusionary realm could Gu Mingzhou be lost.

But unfortunately, the bridge of helplessness had its limits.

It could only make him return to the past, but it could not change anything in his memory.

This also caused the perfect illusion constructed by the bridge of helplessness to have two Gu Mingzhou’s, which became a loophole.

The bridge of helplessness could not draw out an independent world based on a person’s memory.

Otherwise, he would probably be completely lost in it.

“So it’s all fake. Good thing it’s all fake.” Gu Mingzhou muttered to himself.

Seeing his parents again had a huge impact on Gu Mingzhou’s state of mind.

Fortunately, after walking out of the illusion, he naturally would not think about these things.

“Since it’s an illusion, let me accompany you for two more days!” Gu Mingzhou wiped away his tears and turned to look at the dilapidated house.

He listened to the intimate conversation between Gu Hai and Liu Cii, as well as little Gu Mingzhou’s faint murmurs.

He knew that this was an illusion, so he could just leave.

However, he was still unwilling to leave. He wanted to spend more time with his parents, even if it was just a reunion in his memories.

Perhaps this was the so-called “the tree wants to be quiet, but the wind will not stop”. The son wants to be raised, but the family is not there.

He wanted to stay in this illusionary realm for a longer period of time to reunite with his parents.

Just as Gu Mingzhou was about to make a decision, he heard hurried footsteps.

The black shadow suddenly jumped over the wall and landed in the courtyard.

“Uncle Duan Yu?” Gu Mingzhou called out in a low voice.

The person who had suddenly climbed over the wall was Duan Yu, who had rushed back.

However, the current Duan Yu was clearly in a much more sorry state compared to his previous high-spirited and unruly self.

The other party’s robe was tattered, his body was covered in blood and wounds, and he was holding a curved blade in an unkempt manner.

“It’s you? What are you doing here?” Duan Yu had also noticed Gu Mingzhou, and his eyes were filled with caution.

Gu Mingzhou looked at Uncle Duan Yu, who had been educating him since he was young. He was about to explain when he was interrupted!

“So you’re in cahoots with those horse bandits, aren’t you?” Duan Yu raised his saber and pointed it at Gu Mingzhou as he spoke with hatred.

Duan Yu dragged his injured right leg and suddenly pounced at Gu Mingzhou.

Gu Mingzhou dodged it easily and did not fight back!

“You still dare to tease me? Take my blade!”

Duan Yu’s anger immediately rose, and he raised his saber, ready to attack again.

“Duan Yu, stop!” Gu Hai quickly came out of the house and shouted to stop him.

“Brother Hai, you don’t have to worry about this. I’ll kill this pervert who’s trying to harm Sister-in-law today!” Duan Yu shook his scimitar and said arrogantly.

“What perverted bandit? Don’t talk nonsense. This little brother here is your Sister-in-law’s benefactor!” Gu Hai pointed at Gu Mingzhou and said to Duan Yu angrily.

“Benefactor?” Duan Yu was dumbfounded and didn’t know what to do!

“If it wasn’t for him, I’m afraid your Sister-in-law would have been in deep trouble.” Gu Hai explained.

“It’s all my fault. I was blind and nearly wronged benefactor. Please don’t blame me!” Duan Yu was a quick-witted person and instantly reacted. He hurriedly bowed to Gu Mingzhou and apologized.

“I’m fine!” Gu Mingzhou waved his hand and said.

“It’s just a misunderstanding. Everyone, please don’t take it to heart. Didn’t I ask you to take the villagers to the cave to hide?” Gu Hai tried to smooth things over.

“If Big Brother didn’t mention this, I would have almost forgotten about it, but…” Duan Yu hurriedly explained.

“But what? Hurry up and tell me!” Gu Hai saw Duan Yu’s tone change and immediately urged.

...

“Although the villagers have evacuated, the horse bandits didn’t leave. They went to the place where we stored our prey. Duan Qiming and I intercepted them halfway and led all the horse bandits back to the town. Some of them are still trapped!” Duan Yu quickly explained.

Gu Hai’s face turned ugly when he heard that the villagers were ambushed.

“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and save them!” Gu Hai pulled Duan Yu and was about to walk out of the door.

Just as Gu Mingzhou was about to call out to Gu Hai, there was suddenly the sound of noisy footsteps from outside the door.

“This way! I just saw him running in this direction!”

A loud shout rang out, accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps, quickly approaching the house they were in.

“Terrible! It’s the horse bandits who chased me here!” Duan Yu quickly pulled Gu Hai and leaned against the corner of the wall, his tone apologetic.

“I don’t blame you. What’s going to come will come.” Gu Hai pulled out the scimitar from his waist, cautiously staring at the door, and advised in a low voice.

Although he was trying to persuade Duan Yu, it was obvious that Gu Hai’s right hand, which was holding the machete, was trembling.

Even if Gu Hai had the courage to fight against ten people alone, it would be difficult for him to stop hundreds of horse bandits.

Both Duan Yu and Gu Hai were focused on the horse bandits chasing after them and completely ignored Gu Mingzhou, who was standing at the side.

...

“It seems like I still need to take action!” Gu Mingzhou touched his nose and thought to himself.

He immediately activated his spiritual energy and gathered it in his hands. He was about to jump out of the wall and quickly finish off the horse bandits.

At this moment, a red glow seeped out of Gu Mingzhou’s dantian.

“Not good. Brother Wudao is in trouble!” Gu Mingzhou was a little shocked.

Jing Wudao was a spiritual sense, a precious soul body. Although he couldn’t cultivate, his potential was endless, and could increase his strength according to his master’s strength.

It was a pity that Gu Mingzhou’s strength wasn’t enough to support Jing Wudao’s soul body, so Jing Wudao had to rely on himself to absorb and accumulate all his cultivation. Otherwise, he would be like a mortal.

However, the fact that Gu Mingzhou was Jing Wudao’s Master couldn’t be changed.
