Chapter 524: Chapter 310: Absorption and Unexpected Joy
“A strange object?”
Zhou Li was taken aback.
Chen Sheng’s sudden remark left him somewhat puzzled.
“What do you mean?”
He tried to ask for more information.
But this time,
Chen Sheng did not answer.
He just silently stood up from the sofa and looked towards the inside of the main room.
According to Xiao Hei.
The aura he sensed was identical to his own.
As for why they were the same and their origins,
He couldn’t say why either.
This did arouse Chen Sheng’s curiosity.
Xiao Hei’s identity was mysterious, and even now, Chen Sheng had not been able to figure out what exactly it was.
But there was no doubt that Xiao Hei’s help was tremendous for Chen Sheng.
Without Xiao Hei, relying on his own cultivation, Chen Sheng might have barely reached the peak attribute of several hundred thousand by now.
This amount of attribute might be enough to crush humans.
But when facing the unknown Heavenly Person, the more strength, the better.
So,
As Zhou Li watched in bewilderment,
Chen Sheng followed Xiao Hei’s guidance and walked straight into the bedroom.
When he came out,
He held an additional item in his hand.
It was a video tape.
It looked quite old.
Chen Sheng had only seen such a thing when he was a child.
Shortly after that, due to the rapid evolution of technology, this type of video tape quickly became history.
Until now,
Only some collectors or enthusiasts would choose to collect some precious video tapes at home.
“You have this hobby too?”
His gaze fell on Zhou Li.
Chen Sheng held up the video tape in his hand.
Huh?
Zhou Li walked over, took the video tape from Chen Sheng’s hand.
He squinted his eyes and examined it carefully.
“When did I have this thing in my room?”
After a brief moment of reflection,
Zhou Li slapped his forehead, revealing a look of sudden realization.
“Oh, I remember now.”
“These past few days, many people in Kyoto have been setting up stalls selling the trinkets they’ve found.”
“I saw this video tape at the market today and thought it was interesting.”
“Also, the stall owner was strange, he didn’t even remember having this thing at his stall, so he just gave it to me.”
“Huh? So why did I want this thing?”
“I don’t have a video player at home, and I’m not usually interested in these old things.”
The old man stroked his white beard, looking puzzled.
After buying the tape and bringing it home, it was as if he had forgotten its existence.
If Chen Sheng hadn’t mentioned it just now, he wouldn’t have even remembered having it.
Upon hearing this,
Chen Sheng pondered.
He didn’t think that Zhou Li had senile dementia.
Rather, it felt quite strange.
From what he sensed, he hadn’t detected any anomalies in the video tape.
“Xiao Hei, can you probe deeper?”
Chen Sheng asked Xiao Hei in his consciousness.
“I’ll give it a try.”
It quickly transformed into a liquid and dripped into the video tape, attempting to find the source of the anomaly.
In less than a breath’s time,
Xiao Hei had already sent a message back.
“I found the source of the aura.”
“But…there’s only the aura, nothing else.”
Only the aura?
Chen Sheng’s brow furrowed.
He didn’t immediately order Xiao Hei to devour the aura.
Instead, he lowered his head in thought.
The videotape was definitely not simple, this much was certain.
But from Xiao Hei’s discovery, it was very likely not the main body of the aura.
In that case, they couldn’t let Xiao Hei directly devour the aura.
Otherwise,
It could cause the trail to be broken.
Chen Sheng was still a bit curious about the existence that had the same aura as Xiao Hei.
With that thought,
He had already made up his mind.
“Old man, can you get a video player?”
Chen Sheng looked at Zhou Li, who was standing nearby.
“Wait a moment…”
“I remember our neighbor has one, I’ll go borrow it and see.”
Zhou Li turned and walked towards the outside of the house.
In just three to five minutes, he returned to the main room with a heavy video player in his arms.
“Kid, is there a problem with the tape?”
Holding the video player, Zhou Li prepared to place it next to the TV set.
He looked somewhat alarmed.
It was just that Chen Sheng’s serious demeanor had somewhat frightened him.
What kind of strength did Chen Sheng have?
Although Zhou Li had not experienced it directly,
He already had a taste of it when he observed Chen Sheng practicing Kung Fu from afar at Yihe Gate.
An item that could make Chen Sheng act so seriously had been unknowingly placed in his home.
If Chen Sheng hadn’t come,
Would the old man have met his end?
At this thought,
His heart shuddered.
“It’s hard to say.”
“You should go to the courtyard first.”
Chen Sheng waved his hand.
Next, he prepared to play the video tape to see if there was any secret to it.
Just in case,
It was best for Old Zhou to stay away from the scene.
However,
As soon as Chen Sheng finished speaking,
Rustle
The video player hadn’t even been connected to power yet.
The TV, which had been off, automatically turned on.
The screen displayed snowflakes, accompanied by an irritating noise.
Whoosh!
“Kid, be careful!”
“There’s something fishy!”
Zhou Li exclaimed in surprise.
In that moment, his old legs erupted with astonishing speed.
As he warned Chen Sheng,
At the same time, he quickly took cover behind Chen Sheng.
“Thanks for the warning then?”
Chen Sheng looked back with a speechless expression.
“You’re welcome.”
Zhou Li raised his head proudly.
“Why don’t you hide farther away?”
“Fine.”
The old man quickly retreated to a corner at an extremely fast speed.
“Kid, don’t panic!”
“If anything happens, I’ll definitely go get help right away.”
Zhou Li’s voice trembled slightly.
But the credibility of his words was somewhat doubtful.
