Inside the house, Zhou Wen attempted to enter that state again.
In that state, he could directly hear the voice in his heart and even turn it into an image. As long as he had such an ability, he might be able to figure out the truth from the Zhang family.
However, it was unknown if Truth Listener's ability hadn't truly reached that stage or if Zhou Wen's strength wasn't compatible with Truth Listener, but he failed to enter that state after many attempts.
However, ever since he heard the voice in his heart, Zhou Wen's ability to capture voices had become much stronger. The distance and strength weren't a problem for Zhou Wen. As long as he found the right channel, no matter how far away they were, how soft the voice was, or even if someone whispered into his ear on Venus, Zhou Wen could hear them clearly on Earth.
Since using the voice didn't work, Zhou Wen wanted to give it a try and see if he could find the Zhang family's voice channel and eavesdrop on them.
This was clearly not an easy task. Zhou Wen still couldn't accurately capture voices when they were face to face. Furthermore, there were so many people in the Zhang family. Zhou Wen didn't know which person's words were useful, so it was easy to miss them.
With no other choice, Zhou Wen could only try slowly. After all, he had to practice controlling his hearing, so he treated it as practice.
After listening for a long time, he could occasionally hear some of the Zhang family's words. However, they were all over the place, and some of them were just a few words. He didn't discover anything useful.
All Zhou Wen could do was continue practicing. He realized that ever since he heard Zhang Yuzhi's voice, his control over voice information became stronger and stronger. He improved very quickly.
Outside the building, Uncle Zhang coughed lightly and said, "Yuzhi, are you resting?"
"Eldest Uncle, what's the matter?" Zhang Yuzhi opened the door and looked at Eldest Uncle Zhang in confusion.
"Nothing much. I just feel uncomfortable and want to chat with you," Uncle Zhang said.
"Uncle, have a seat. I'll pour you a cup of tea," Zhang Yuzhi said as she prepared to get the teapot.
"There's no need. I'll do it myself." Uncle Zhang rushed to pick up the teapot and poured himself a cup, but he didn't drink it.
Putting down the teapot, Uncle Zhang sighed and said, "Yuzhi, it's been hard on you. If there was any other way, we wouldn't have agreed to her conditions. If it's possible, I'd rather go to her place instead of you. Anyway, I'm already old and useless. You're still young and talented. The Zhang family is counting on you in the future. "
"Uncle, you don't have to say anything. This is my fate. I accept it. She wants me. I won't drag the family down with me." Zhang Yuzhi said with her head lowered.
"What are you talking about? We're a family." The eldest uncle of the Zhang family said, "I only hate myself for being useless. I can't replace you and save the Zhang family. Yuzhi, if there's anything you need, just tell me. Even if I have to risk my life, I'll definitely help you complete it. "
"Thank you, uncle. I'm fine now. I don't need anything else." Zhang Yuzhi shook her head.
"It's fine. Let me know when you think of something." The eldest uncle of the Zhang family paused for a moment before saying excitedly, "Yuzhi, you also know that this matter concerns the survival of our family. We can't afford any mishaps. If anything happens to us old fellows, it's fine. If anything happens to Chunqiu and the rest, how can I explain it to our ancestors in the netherworld? How can I face Grandmaster Zu …"
"Uncle, did something happen?" Zhang Yuzhi couldn't help but ask with a frown when she heard Zhang Chunqiu's name.
…
"What are you still doing here?" The next morning, Zhou Wen saw Zhang Yuzhi standing outside the door the moment he opened it. He had no idea when she had arrived.
"What?" Zhou Wen looked at Zhang Yuzhi in puzzlement with a blank look.
"I told you to leave. Don't stay here and cause trouble. Why can't you understand human language?" Zhang Yuzhi said again.
Zhou Wen dug his ear and said helplessly, "My hearing is getting worse. What did you say?"
Zhang Yuzhi didn't say a word as she held Zhou Wen's hand and walked out. It looked like she wanted to forcefully pull Zhou Wen out of the Zhang family.
Seeing that Zhang Yuzhi was serious, Zhou Wen felt that it was useless to feign ignorance. He couldn't shake off Zhang Yuzhi's hand and stay there. He couldn't do such a thing.
Just as Zhou Wen was thinking about what to do, he suddenly realized that the sea of sound around him was gradually receding. He had once again entered the state where he could hear the thoughts of others.
I knew it. It wasn't an illusion the last time. Truth Listener's power really can hear the thoughts of others. Zhou Wen was delighted as he hurriedly listened, hoping to know what he could hear this time.
This time, Zhou Wen didn't feel that Zhang Yuzhi had turned into a little girl. She still looked the same, but Zhou Wen heard two voices coming from her.
A voice came from her mouth. Zhou Wen could hear it, but he didn't seem to remember it.
The other voice also came from her. It was very weak at first, but it became clearer and clearer.
"Zhou Wen, leave. Don't ever come back. Staying here will only harm you. I don't want to harm my friend again … I'm not worthy of being your friend …" Zhou Wen's expression became odder as he heard it more and more clearly.
"Hurry up and go back. Stop fooling around." Zhang Yuzhi pulled Zhou Wen out the door and gritted her teeth. After saying that, she turned around and left. The Zhang family's guards closed the door.
Zhou Wen looked at the tightly shut door and left the Zhang family.
When the Zhang family saw Zhou Wen leave, many of them heaved a sigh of relief.
They weren't afraid of Zhou Wen, but they were afraid that Zhou Wen would interfere with their matters.
Zhang Chunqiu stood beside a stone pavilion and looked at Zhang Yuzhi, who was sitting in the garden in a daze. He couldn't help but sigh.
Two days later, many people in the Zhang family looked nervous. People kept leaving Zhang Manor and heading for the Fiend Tomb.
At noon, a car was pushed out of the Zhang family's house.
The reason why it was said to be pushed out wasn't because the car was out of gas, but because it was a wooden car.
The wooden car's style was very strange. Even the axles and wheels were made of wood. On the car, there was a white cloth that resembled a bed curtain that covered the back of the car. It was impossible to see what was on the car.
If one could see through the white cloth, they would see that there was a huge black wood coffin inside. There were many yellow talismans pasted on the coffin.
Under the protection of the Zhang family, the wooden carriage containing the coffin was pushed all the way to the Fiend Tomb.
