Chapter 79.1 - Wheat Fields
Ch79.1 – Wheat Fields
The golden light flashed, and Yu Hao was instantly dragged into the dream world!
There were a lot of changes to his own dreamscape; now there was a winding roller coaster track and a lot of Apsaras flying in the sky. The grassland outside the capital had become a golden wheat field, and his subordinate officers and soldiers rode horses as they left the capital through gates on all sides to go on a hunt. A river ran past the outside the city like a brocade belt, and in the sky, a faint and barely perceptible silver moon appeared!
My world has a moon now? Yu Hao stared at it curiously, but the moonlight was very faint, like when it appears in the evening sky at the same time as the sun. It almost blended in to become one with the blue sky.
In the distance, steps extended downwards from the sun and led to the beacon tower of the Great Wall.
Yu Hao, “It’s turned into this now?”
It had been a long time since Yu Hao last entered his own dreamscape. Now that he reflected on these changes, he had a vague impression of them. He spread his wings out and flew towards the Golden Crow Wheel and passed through it.
Another light flashed again. Yu Hao appeared in Zhou Sheng’s dream, still on that vast platform. There had been no changes here at all.
“Zhou Sheng!” Yu Hao shouted, “Where are you?”
The sea of clouds surged. Yu Hao looked all around him. He pondered for a moment before turning around in the air and rushed down below the sea of clouds, but right when he passed through the clouds, Yu Hao felt like his body suddenly underwent a huge change!
Yu Hao, “!!!”
His black uniform turned white with a whoosh, then unfolded into fur. His wings withdrew and shook out again, his two hands turned into furry forelegs, and his ears lengthened in the wind.
“It can’t be ba——” The white fox cried out, “What the hell is this?!?” Before he fell straight down!
A furious storm brewed, thunder and lightning were everywhere, and there was a crowd of people surrounding the ring-shaped colosseum. Zhou Sheng supported himself with his shield, dressed in a military uniform, and wore the shoes that Yu Hao had given him as he stood in the mud.
The torrential downpour continued to beat down relentlessly. Zhou Sheng’s face was drenched with water as he faced the center of the colosseum. Medusa, concealed in the darkness, slithered around amidst the mad cheers of the crowd. The black dragon was battered and bruised all over, with blood seeping into the rain as it laid on one side without anyone knowing if it was dead or alive.
“It’s way too fucking strong.” Zhou Sheng gasped, “Need to wait for an opportunity……”
Medusa wandered around the ring and kept getting closer to Zhou Sheng. Zhou Sheng held up his shield, took a deep breath, and tried to wipe the rain off his face. His shoulders, legs, and back were all covered in blood stains from her sharp claws.
“Zhou Sheng!” Yu Hao’s voice rang out, accompanied by a streak of lightning. A fox with wings whizzed through the arena!
“Yu Hao?” Zhou Sheng’s eyes widened in an instant, but at the same time, Medusa let out a coarse yell and pounced towards Zhou Sheng!
Zhou Sheng immediately blocked with his shield and collided with the monster, but he was sent flying by the impact.
“Zhou Sheng!” The fox shouted and flew to Zhou Sheng.
“Go……go!” Zhou Sheng gasped, “Get out of here, quick!!”
The fox landed, and its tiny body shielded Zhou Sheng. It looked up at the monsters that were approaching them unremittingly.
After being driven away, the monster widened its eyes under the illumination of the lightning; it had snakes for hair and was shouting with a hoarse voice — it was actually a Medusa!
Fox, “What’s that? Your mother?”
“Medusa! Yu Hao! Don’t look at her eyes!!” Zhou Sheng shouted.
Before anyone could react, the fox spread its wings, leapt into the air, and landed on Medusa’s head. Medusa screamed hoarsely, and her snake hair twisted and writhed in all directions. The fox seized one of the snakes on Medusa’s head; Medusa immediately reached up,wanting to pull the fox down, yet the fox bit onto one of the small snakes on Medusa’s head and refused to let go.
Within an instant, Zhou Sheng saw an opportunity. He swung the jingubang across and Medusa let out a cry of pain, but the fox was sent flying from the hit as well!
“You broke the rules!” Satan’s voice rang out.
The fox fell to the ground, its fur covered in mud. It struggled to get up before raising its head and surveying the surroundings.
Zhou Sheng said, “Come to me! Yu Hao!”
The fox sped towards Zhou Sheng while Medusa was already getting back up in a corner. She let out an indignant cry and suddenly grew to a height of at least ten metres! Red light burst out from her eyes and swept towards them along the edge of the arena. The fox discovered that the black dragon was lying on the edge and shouted, “General! Your dragon!”
Wherever the light from Medusa’s eyes swept through, everything and its surroundings would be petrified. Thousands of sculptures in the audience collapsed and fell down, and the scene fell into madness and chaos.
“Never mind!”
Zhou Sheng jumped into the air with the fox in his arms. The two of them somersaulted; Zhou Sheng used his shield to resist Medusa’s petrifying gaze, and his mirror-like shield refracted the light such that the beam was redirected towards another side of the arena. A large area of the audience stand was destroyed. The fox heard Zhou Sheng whistle, and the jindouyun flew over, carrying them as it flew out of the arena with a whoosh. Behind them came Medusa’s hoarse shrieks and Satan’s angry roar.
“You’ll reap what you sow!” Satan roared.
Within the blink of an eye, Zhou Sheng had flown out of the arena with the little fox in his arms. The fox said, “Go to my dream!”
Zhou Sheng didn’t answer. He passed through all the lightning bolts that rained down in succession from the dark sky and dragged out a gigantic wave from the sea. The fox widened its eyes; it saw a lone island in the distance.
There was a hole in the clouds above the lone island, and golden sunshine spilled down through that gap, blending with the golden light reflected from the surface of the sea around the island.
Zhou Sheng hugged the fox and plunged headfirst towards the small island, and the two of them fell onto a golden meadow. The fox fell so hard it tumbled a few times and rolled away like a furry ball.
Fox, “……”
This island covered about two to three hundred square metres, and the island was blanketed with long golden grass. There were four beds in the center of the island, and its layout was exactly the same as their dormitory.
The fox muttered to itself, “Where is this place? A safe haven?”
The fox looked up. Throughout Zhou Sheng’s entire dream world, only this island was bathed in sunlight.
“Zhou Sheng?” The fox turned around and ran quickly towards Zhou Sheng, who lay unconscious in the golden grass.
“Zhou Sheng!” The fox quickly nudged him, but it was really too small and was barely as big as a puppy so it had no strength at all. When it raised its paws, it instantly got a huge fright.
“Zhou Sheng! You’re bleeding so much!” The white fur on fox’s body was dyed a purplish black by Zhou Sheng’s blood. It quickly moved close to Zhou Sheng’s nose to sniff it. Fortunately, he was still breathing.
“Good night!” The fox pressed its paw against Zhou Sheng’s forehead and said anxiously, “Good night! Hurry and wake up! It’s not working!!”
The fox pressed its paw against Zhou Sheng’s wound in a panic, but his ability to heal was gone. He had no staff and no magic, what should he do ahhhhhh!!
“Zhou Sheng!” The fox shouted frantically, “What do I do?! Wake up!!”
The side of Zhou Sheng’s face had a wound; that wound was bloody from Medusa’s scratch and was at least a centimeter deep. The fox whimpered and leaned closer to lick it with its tongue……
……Zhou Sheng’s wound miraculously healed!
This is great! Yu Hao thought.
It hurriedly exerted all its strength on the wound on Zhou Sheng’s face, and with every lick, the wound would heal a little bit more. So the fox quickly jumped onto his back and licked it. Zhou Sheng’s back was scratched so badly that even his shoulder blades were exposed. The fox’s heart ached as it licked, and the blood that was seeping out nonstop from Zhou Sheng’s wound gradually stopped.
“I shouldn’t have rabies ba……” The fox muttered to itself, “Wait no this is a dream, so it should be fine……Zhou Sheng! Turn over! Hurry and turn over!!”
Zhou Sheng moved, moaned, and woke up.
The fox nudged his face forcefully, “Turn over! Turn over!!”
Zhou Sheng arduously flipped over and moaned, “It hurts like hell……”
“It’ll be fine soon.” The fox jumped onto his chest and began licking his neck. Zhou Sheng laughed and grabbed the fox by the back of its neck to lift it up, then stared at it with a hint of laughter in his eyes.
“Is it you?” Zhou Sheng said, “Yu Hao? Why are you here?”
The little fox was lifted up and began clawing about frantically in the air. He quickly said, “Let me down! Quick! You’re still bleeding!!”
But Zhou Sheng didn’t care. He hugged the little fox that Yu Hao had turned into and rubbed its head.
“You’re gonna strangle me to death……” The little fox struggled. It wasn’t easy for the fox to jump out of Zhou Sheng’s iron hoop-like arms and continued to help treat his wounds. The wounds on Zhou Sheng’s body began to heal with the little fox’s licking, but after awhile he really couldn’t stand the licking anymore and burst out laughing as he shouted, “It’s ticklish!”
“I’ll be done soon!” The little fox said.
The little fox began licking Zhou Sheng’s knee, and after his knee healed, Zhou Sheng’s legs were parted slightly as he sat on the long golden grass. He looked down at the little fox.
The fox fiddled with Zhou Sheng’s feet that were wearing the basketball shoes, and after he finished checking them, he said, “There aren’t any injuries on your feet, I’m done.”
Zhou Sheng said, “Yu Hao, look at your own paws?”
The fox looked down and saw that his own paws were black; they had been bitten by the little snakes when he grabbed onto Medusa and were already numb.
It lowered its head and licked its own paws, “It’s fine, where’s my protective halo? Isn’t it impossible for me to get hurt in your dream?”
Zhou Sheng said helplessly, “It’s selective. If I think that Medusa can hurt you, then you can get bitten by her. Let me take a look?”
Zhou Sheng held the fox’s paws and drew them lightly closer to carefully examine its front paws.
