Chapter: 5985

Ye Chen hastily said: "How could that be? Although I didn't know the specific circumstances, I believe Uncle Peter, you must have done it all for my good. And I can benefit from the arrangement to get the 'Nine Heavens Scripture'. After all, I want to thank you for this."

Peter Zhou shook his head quickly: "Young master, I was just following your father's will. I brought the 'Nine Heavens Scripture' to Jinling for you, and everything is because of your father's preparation for you. Only through his care and guidance could I have lived until today. You don't need to thank me."

Ye Chen's heart was filled with even more astonishment, although he had doubted before whether he could get the 'Nine Heavens Scripture' and whether it was related to his father. But he never found any direct evidence.

Now, Peter Zhou's words have helped him confirm this suspicion.

At this moment, Ye Chen has countless questions that are pressing to ask Uncle Peter for clarification. However, looking at their current environment and then at the steel neck ring on his neck, Ye Chen immediately stepped forward to pull off the ring, then supported Peter Zhou up, saying: "Uncle Peter, I'll take you out first. Don't worry, this grudge will be settled in the future!"

Peter Zhou hurriedly said: "Young master, ultimately, it's my fault. The Rosshurst family treated me like that, and I deserve it. And now, I can't leave here because if I do, the Rosshurst family won't let my family go. I can't bring them down..."

Now, Peter Zhou's words have helped me confirm this suspicion.

At this moment, I have countless questions that are pressing to ask Uncle Peter for clarification. However, looking at our current environment and then at Bruce Wayne's statue behind you, I immediately stepped forward to pull off the ring, then supported Peter Zhou up, saying: "Uncle Peter, I'll take you out first. Don't worry, this grudge will be settled in the future!"

Peter Zhou hurriedly said: "Young master, ultimately, it's my fault. The Rosshurst family treated me like that, and I deserve it. And now, I can't leave here because if I do, the Rosshurst family won't let my family go. I can't bring them down..."

As he spoke, he looked at me with a serious expression: "Master Ye, you must have had many puzzling questions for a long time without getting an answer. Since you've found your way here today, I'll answer all your questions one by one after I'm done. And then I still have something to ask of you!"

He shook his head and said firmly: "Young master, we're not leaving here yet."

As he spoke, he pointed to Bruce Wayne's statue behind me and said: "There's only him who will come around here recently, since he's already been controlled by you. In the short term, this place is absolutely safe. I have something to explain clearly to you first."

I hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly: "Okay! Help me treat your physical condition first, then you can slowly tell me everything."

As soon as I finished speaking, I gently placed my fingers on Peter Zhou's pulse point, transferred some spiritual energy into his body, and let him recover completely from his physical state with significant improvements.

Bruce Wayne looked at me with a confused expression and said: "Oh, so it seems that you've already mastered the 'Nine Heavens Heaven Scroll'!"

Since Peter Zhou's physical body had undergone significant improvements, Bruce Wayne stood guard outside the room while I sat down comfortably with Peter Zhou.

Peter Zhou said: "Young master, just ask whatever you want to know. I'll tell you everything."

Bruce Wayne asked: "Uncle Zhou, can we start from your situation? What's going on between our family and the Rothschild family?"

Peter Zhou sighed and said: "For many years, our Zhou family has mainly operated in the antique trade in the West, specializing in Eastern antiques. We have some reputation in this small field. This is the premise of the whole thing;"

"So a few months ago, someone from the Rothschild family approached me privately and offered me a very high price to help them restore an Eastern antique, specifically a Four-Direction Treasure Pagoda that only exists in legend but has never truly been seen."

Bruce Wayne curiously asked: "Treasure Pagoda?"

"Yes," Peter Zhou explained. "The Treasure Pagoda is a type of ancient craftsmanship, characterized by a definite degree of similarity to a miniature pagoda. There have been similar antique artifacts throughout history, with the most famous being the Song Dynasty's True Buddha's Relic Pagoda. However, that pagoda mainly has religious significance, whereas the Rothschild family's Four-Direction Treasure Pagoda is quite different."

As I spoke, Peter Zhou continued: "I had collected many Chinese antiques scattered overseas, including documents from various dynasties, and have been gradually accumulating ancient texts. In the past, Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty believed in Buddhism and Confucianism. He not only sent Xuanzang to India for scriptures but also gathered all the country's Confucian masters together in Chang'an City to simulate national fate and ensure the stability of the Tang Empire."

Bruce Wayne asked curiously: "Is this Four-Direction Treasure Pagoda a ritual tool related to Feng Shui?"

"No mistake." Peter Zhou nodded and said, "According to the wild history I've seen, when Huang Chao rose up in arms, he was lucky to have a high-level expert in feng shui helping him. He broke through the Tang dynasty's dragon vein and took out the Four-Direction Treasure Pagoda from the dragon vein. However, Huang Chao had no imperial mandate, and with only the Four-Direction Treasure Pagoda, he could not escape failure. Therefore, this treasure pagoda later fell into Zhu Wen's hands, but unfortunately, there was no one in Zhu Wen's entourage who was familiar with feng shui, so the treasure pagoda did not have any real effect under his care and eventually disappeared without a trace."
