The moment Lü Shu woke up, he realized why the Puppeteer had been so weak after passing through the gate. Theoretically speaking, they had guessed that the Puppeteer had self-degraded. Then, in his weakened state, he had still been in a daze in the spatial passage behind the gate. For example, Lü Shu had fainted right away … To be honest, Lü Shu was very impressed that the Puppeteer had been able to fight even after passing through this passage.
Of course, the Puppeteer had been at B rank back then, while Lü Shu was only left with the physical attributes of an ordinary person.
He opened his eyes and observed his surroundings. He seemed to be lying on a cold, hard bed in a small hut. He turned his head to take a look. There was a farming tool that looked like a hoe leaning against the mud-brick wall, and it was still stained with mud.
The bed beneath him was built with baked mud bricks. There was no craftsmanship involved in baking bricks at all. It was just a simple mold that was molded into a rectangle and then baked …
There was no other furniture in the hut. Apart from the bed, there was only a simple wooden table with potholes on it. In a bowl, there was a half-eaten purplish black cornbread. Lü Shu was not even sure if that thing was cornbread or not.
He was a little confused. Hadn't he entered the homeland of the Puppeteer? In Lü Shu's imagination, everyone here should be very strong, and the food here should be very foreign. He had never heard of such things before.
Indeed, he had never seen the thing in the bowl before, but it did not look foreign at all.
No matter how he looked at it, it looked like he had come to the countryside to teach. If he had come to the countryside to teach, then what was the identity of the Puppeteer? The scene he saw when he opened his eyes was too bizarre. It made Lü Shu wonder if he had really passed through the Astral Gate.
Lü Shu forced his body, which felt like it was about to fall apart, to get up. His shoes were placed beside the bed. It seemed like the owner of the hut had taken him in when he was unconscious and then left, not afraid that Lü Shu would steal anything.
Honestly speaking, there was really nothing in the hut that interested Lü Shu.
He had to return home. To Lü Shu, no matter how great the outside world was, he still preferred Earth and Luoyang City.
In the past, he had heard that the strong had to break through the void to go to other worlds and whatnot. Lü Shu felt that there was something wrong with that person. You're already the strongest player in your world, why do you have to go and find someone stronger to beat up …
Lü Shu did not have any martial arts pursuits that required him to become the most powerful. As long as he had the ability to protect Xiaoyu, Lü Shu felt that staying in Luoyang City was a good idea.
Therefore, what he wanted to do most now was to find a way to go home, but he also knew that this matter could not be rushed.
At this moment, a middle-aged man pushed open the door and walked in. He was carrying a pole on his shoulder, and on the pole were two wooden buckets filled with water. Lü Shu was a little puzzled. This middle-aged man had black hair and yellow skin, and he looked just like an Earthling. Could he really have landed in some mountain village in the Changbai Mountains? Could it be that he had not entered that star gate at all?
Lü Shu did not speak because he was not sure what language was used here. It would be bad if he said something wrong and let the cat out of the bag.
Therefore, the best choice for him now was to keep his mouth shut and slowly learn the language here. He wanted to learn how to integrate into this world, and then find a way to go home!
Lü Shu kept his mouth shut and waited for the other party to speak. The next moment, when the middle-aged man saw that Lü Shu had woken up, he chuckled and said, "Yo, you're awake. Don't look down on me because I look a little ugly. It's just that when I met you, I was very old. I was working in the fields, and with a squeak, you were lying behind me … You can't swindle me, I didn't do anything!"
Lü Shu was speechless.
What's with this accent? Is this the world behind the star gate?! So, I really landed in some mountain village in the Changbai Mountains, right?!
Lü Shu adjusted his emotions and asked, "Where is this?"
Since they spoke the same language, it was easy to talk. At least he did not have to worry about being exposed.
Although Lü Shu believed that he had a strong talent for languages, the problem was that he would rather learn one less foreign language.
In the current situation, Lü Shu could speak Mandarin, Japanese, English, and Ying …
However, Lü Shu was a little confused. Why did this middle-aged man keep calling him 'you'? It sounded weird, but he did not say much. The more he said, the more mistakes he would make. Moreover, Lü Shu felt that something was not right. The other party's accent was mixed and very confusing.
When the middle-aged man heard Lü Shu speak, he immediately beamed and said, "This is Field Ridge Town. I'm a farmer here. My name is Zhang Weiyu. Where did you come from? Are you hungry? I'll go and kill a chicken for you. What do you think? "
Lü Shu waved his hand. "Let's not talk about food first. My memory is a little messed up. Let me ask you something. The land we're standing on … I mean, does this entire world have a name?"
Zhang Weiyu was stunned. "Yes!"
"What's it called?" Lü Shu's eyes lit up.
"Lü Zhou!"
Lü Shu: "???"
This time, it was Lü Shu's turn to be stunned. "No, wait a minute. Is there a problem with your accent …"
Universe? Lü Zhou?
Zhang Weiyu glanced at Lü Shu. He seemed a little puzzled as he dipped his saliva in his mouth and wrote "Lü Zhou" on the table. Then, he said, "That's right, Lü Zhou. There's nothing wrong with my accent."
What a lunatic!
Lü Shu sucked in a breath of cold air. He had indeed passed through the star gate. It was just that the name of this world … was a little hard for him to accept.
What? Is this the world of the Lü Family? Why is it called Lü Zhou?!
Your name is a little wrong. The reason why the universe is called the universe is because the words "universe" and "zhou" are separated. One means space, and the other means time. Therefore, when combined, they refer to the entire world.
How do you explain Lü Zhou?
At this moment, Lü Shu noticed that he hadn't paid much attention to the other party's attire at first. This wasn't a big deal. The important thing was that the other party was wearing straw sandals, and the waistband was just a rope made of grass stems.
Lü Shu looked at Zhang Weiyu in front of him. He was now an ordinary person, so he couldn't sense the other party's strength. However, when the other party spoke, he gave Lü Shu a sense of shrewdness. Now that the other party was being so polite, it was as if he treated Lü Shu as someone of high status and was trying to please him.
Zhang Weiyu suddenly looked at Lü Shu with a puzzled expression, as if he had discovered something. "You bastard, get off the brick bed! Why are you pretending to have the accent of an aristocrat! You're still pretending to have amnesia! There are many storytellers in town who have told this kind of story! "
Lü Shu thought to himself, What the hell is this? Why am I pretending? However, the best thing for him now was to make the best of a mistake. Regardless of whether he was an aristocrat or a peasant, he should first become a person of this world.
This time, Lü Shu was really careful. He knew that this world was definitely not as peaceful as Earth. Just look at the puppeteer and you will know.
Lü Shu obediently got off the brick bed. "I'm sorry, my memory is really a little messed up. That's why I want to clarify the situation first."
Zhang Weiyu rolled his eyes. "Tell me the truth. Are you a slave who offended the master and escaped … It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter who you are. Are you willing to find a job?"
