Chapter 230 Going out to play
Honghong taught Zhang Shan Tushan's perception barrier. From now on, even if Honghong had to go out for something, Zhang Shan would be able to complete the mountain patrol mission independently.
On this day, when Zhang Shan was practicing, Yaya appeared at his residence stealthily.
"Yaya?"
"Don't talk, just follow me!"
As he spoke, a black thing was put on Zhang Shan's head, and then he was forcibly abducted by Yaya!
"Uh huh~~"
After struggling for a while, Zhang Shan touched the ground again.
After taking off the black cloth on his head, Zhang Shan immediately asked, "Yaya! Where are you taking me?"
He looked around and was sure that this was definitely not in Tushan.
"Where have you come from? Is this still China?"
Yaya smiled proudly and said, "Little Tiger! Today, we are not adventuring in Tushan, but we are outside Tushan!"
"Outside Tushan..." Zhang Shan's mind was in a mess. He didn't understand why he appeared here. For him, who was not even the Demon King, what was the difference between coming to the outside world and seeking death?
Seeing Zhang Shan was a little dazed, Yaya stretched out her little hand and waved it in front of his eyes: "Little Tiger, what's wrong with you? Don't you want to come out and play?"
"Of course not!" Zhang Shan grabbed Yaya's shoulders and said seriously, "We are just little monsters with no power. If we leave Tushan without permission and are discovered by humans, we will be captured and skinned! Moreover, humans always like to use the body parts of various animals to make wine, and a strong tiger like me is their favorite creature..."
Zhang Shan was talking blah blah, and a big question mark appeared above Yaya's head.
"Demon King? Little monster?"
Are these two words related in any way?
You know, Yaya’s current realm has not yet reached that of the Demon King!
If Zhang Shan hadn't made a breakthrough, she wouldn't have come out to play with Zhang Shan.
After all, Yaya has known since she was a child that the outside world is very dangerous. This is the first time she has left Tushan since she was a child.
Snapped!
Slapping Zhang Shan's hand away, Yaya frowned and said, "I don't know what the future will be like, but now! The Demon King is definitely a powerful person. No one would want to offend a Demon King, so you can rest assured!"
"That's just talk! You know, there are countless demon kings in this world, and I am just one of them now! I am still a weakling!"
Looking at Zhang Shan's anxious face, Yaya finally felt the anxiety in his heart.
"It seems that you have a big misunderstanding of your own strength~" Yaya said: "It doesn't matter, when you see more monsters, you will understand how powerful you are."
Yaya knew that this kind of thing could not be explained clearly. Only when Zhang Shan himself understood his own strength could his mentality be changed.
Just then, a rustling sound suddenly came from the grass around the two of them.
"Who?!" Zhang Shan instantly became extremely alert and looked at the bush vigilantly.
With one hand opened, an invisible wind blade took shape.
While he was on guard, a rabbit came out from the grass.
Just as Yaya breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak, a sharp wind blade flew out and instantly cut the rabbit in half!
"Eh?"
Looking at the little rabbit that had been cut vertically, Yaya's mind was in a mess.
"Hey! What are you doing!?"
Zhang Shan covered Yaya's screaming mouth with his hand and warned her, "Don't shout! It would be bad if you attract humans or monsters here!"
Yaya struggled frantically, and after she used her small hands to pry Zhang Shan's hands away, she took a deep breath and said, "You... are totally too cautious!"
"No! When you go out, the most important thing is to be cautious! Otherwise, you won't even know how you died!" Zhang Shan said seriously, "I'll explain the specific reasons to you after we go back. The most urgent thing is to leave here and return to Tushan!"
After releasing his demonic power to sense the surroundings, Zhang Shan discovered that although the two of them had left Tushan, they were not far away.
Then a gust of breeze blew up, carrying him and Yaya into the air, and in the blink of an eye they were back in Tushan!
After landing, Zhang Shan breathed a sigh of relief and put Yaya down from his shoulders.
Yaya put her hands on her hips and said, "Tell me, what are you worried about?"
Zhang Shan was about to speak when a figure appeared behind the two of them again.
Hong Hong looked at the two of them and asked, "Did you two run away just now?"
Hearing her elder sister's voice, the little fox Yaya trembled, turned around stiffly, and met her elder sister's slightly angry eyes.
"Yaya, I said before that it's impossible to leave Tushan, right?"
“This…that…” Yaya’s eyes swirled around, finally landing on Zhang Shan. She said decisively, “It was him! He forced me to take him out!”
"What?! Don't throw dirty water on me! It was you who forced me to leave!"
"What do you mean I forced you? You are the demon king now, how could I force you? It was you who relied on your strength to force me to take you out!"
Honghong calmly watched the two people blaming each other, with no emotion visible on her face.
When both of them were tired, Hong Hong spoke up, "Both of you, go into seclusion. Yaya, you are not allowed to come out until you have cultivated to the level of a demon king. As for Zhang Shan..."
Looking at Zhang Shan, Honghong didn't know what to do with him.
Cultivate to become the Demon King?
It always feels unlikely, right?
You know, there are only four Demon Kings in the whole world now. You can imagine how difficult it is to cultivate to become a Demon King!
Finally, Hong Hong said, "Forget it. Just continue your daily training and patrolling. Remember to be careful next time and don't let Ya Ya kidnap you again. If you tell others that a demon king was kidnapped, no one will believe it."
"Yes! Thank you for your kindness, Boss!" Zhang Shan was deeply moved.
Yaya beside him was almost biting her teeth with anger. It was obvious that the second in command was very dissatisfied with Zhang Shan for his elder sister's blatant favoritism!
Although it was the elder sister who made the decision, the sister-con will not blame her elder sister. She will only put all the blame on Zhang Shan.
Zhang Shan felt a chill rising from behind him. He looked at Yaya and forced a smile, “Um… Sister Yaya, I’ll bring you some pastries later!”
"Humph!"
With a cold snort, Yaya turned into a blue light and disappeared.
When Zhang Shan turned around, he found that Honghong had also left.
"These two people..." Zhang Shan was extremely helpless. He turned into a gust of wind and returned to the place where he practiced.
In the next six months, Honghong would ask Zhang Shan to patrol the mountains together every day, which greatly reduced his personal time.
However, Zhang Shan feels very safe when he stays with Honghong every day!
At least I don’t have to worry about being packed up and taken away by Yaya again.
Walking on the grass, Zhang Shan looked at Honghong in front of him and felt very conflicted.
"Should I...try to redeem Honghong?"
During the six months of living together, Zhang Shan keenly sensed Honghong's inner pain.
It is an unspeakable pain, not directed towards outsiders, but only towards oneself!
Simply put, Honghong wants to commit suicide...
However, for some reason, she never did so. So, she was in pain!
Zhang Shan knew that the source of Hong Hong's pain was the little Taoist priest she had accidentally killed. But even if he knew the source, Zhang Shan didn't know how to redeem him.
Does he have to make Honghong fall in love with him like Dongfang Yuechu did?
Don’t bother. Zhang Shan is not interested in love. At least, he doesn’t plan to have a love relationship with anyone before his strength reaches the level of the little golden man.
Honghong walked in front with her brows slightly frowned.
During these two days, she noticed that Zhang Shan seemed to want to tell her something, but he was always hesitant and couldn't speak.
If it were someone else, Honghong would have come to take a closer look.
But Zhang Shan is different. What if the other party wants to say something about the peaceful coexistence of humans and demons?
"If you tell me sooner, I can take action sooner!" Honghong felt a little annoyed.
The two of them walked slowly along the mountain path, one in front and one behind, each with their own thoughts.
In the end, Zhang Shan still didn't tell Honghong about her worries. What if he made Honghong unhappy and she kicked him out?
He doesn't want to go out and live a hard life!
"I don't know how old Dongfang Yuechu is now... Never mind, I don't know where he lives, so I have no target to save him."
Several days passed while I was daydreaming.
On this day, Zhang Shan, who was practicing, suddenly felt a gust of cold air coming. He opened his eyes instantly, and a circle of cool breeze appeared around him to protect himself.
"Sister Yaya, welcome back!" Zhang Shan said with a smile.
In front of him was Yaya, who had broken through to the realm of the demon king. At this moment, a layer of light frost appeared on the surface of Yaya's red clothes. Looking at Zhang Shan, she smiled and said, "Come on! Come out and play with me!"
When he heard about going out to play, Zhang Shan became alert instantly!
"Are you going to leave Tushan again?"
"Of course! Are we two demon kings still worried about being beaten to death by the demon king if we go out?" Yaya said as a matter of course: "After all, there are only four demon kings in the world now. Apart from the most powerful elder sister, the others, one is waiting for reunion in Tushan, one was beaten to death by elder sister, and the other is in the south. Even if we really get in by mistake, the other party will let us go for elder sister's sake!"
Zhang Shan crossed his arms across his chest, pondering the feasibility of this matter.
"But I'm a ranger now, I can't leave my post without permission!"
Yaya curved her eyes and said with a funny smirk: "It's okay, just go ask your sister for leave~"
Ask for leave……
What an old word.
After traveling through time, Zhang Shan first practiced for three years. In the days that followed, he lived a very comfortable life and had no intention of asking for leave.
Now that Yaya said this, Zhang Shan felt that he should have a vacation, right... ?
Rongrong's office.
"So, you want to take a leave and go out and play with Sister Yaya?" Rongrong opened her eyes in surprise and stared blankly at the two guys in front of her who looked like they were trying to please her.
"Yes, yes, yes! Lady Rongrong! I also want to see the scenery of this era~ It just so happens that Sister Yaya is here to protect me. This is a rare opportunity, so~ please!"
"Rongrong! Sister is now a demon king. When she travels outside, she is absolutely invincible! Just let us go out without worry!" Yaya said with a smile.
Just when Rongrong was confused, Honghong came in and said, "If they want to go, they can go."
Just as Zhang Shan and Yaya turned around, Honghong raised her hand and shot out two red lights, which penetrated into the bodies of the two.
"This is my magic power. If your life is in danger, I will sense it instantly and then save you."
Seeing that Sister Lian Honghong had let the people go, Rongrong could only sigh and said, "Since Sister Lian Honghong has said so, well, you two should be careful. If you meet humans on the road, you must be alert."
"Don't worry, Rongrong! When we are out, no matter the other person is a human or a monster, I will not easily trust him or her!" Zhang Shan said with a smile!
"That's good……"
Rongrong just sighed and when she looked up again, Zhang Shan and Yaya were nowhere to be seen.
"These two people..."
I looked at Honghong, only to find that she was standing there in shock.
"Sister? What's wrong with you?"
Rongrong's voice brought Honghong back to reality. After a moment of daze, she shook her head and said, "Nothing, I'm just a little surprised that Zhang Shan has already cultivated to the peak of the demon king."
"Haha~ He is indeed very talented in cultivation, even stronger than us natural born monsters. When he comes back this time, can we let him comprehend the giant tree of suffering?"
"Let's wait until he comes back."
Soon, Rongrong was the only one left here.
She sighed: "Ah~you all go out and play..."
At this time, Zhang Shan and the other man had already left Tushan and flew out in a random direction.
"Hahaha! I can finally go out and play openly!" Yaya laughed heartily.
Zhang Shan was also very happy. He put Yaya on his back, and the two of them flew happily in the sky.
After flying for a long time, Zhang Shan landed on the ground and put Yaya down.
"Sister Yaya, is there any place you want to go?" Zhang Shan asked.
"Me? This is my first time out, how am I supposed to know where to go?"
The two of them stared at each other, and the next second, they took a step forward in tacit understanding.
Since there is no goal, let's just go wherever we go!
After walking for a few hours, just when the two were feeling bored, a family that looked pretty good appeared in their sight.
"Oh! Finally someone is here?" Zhang Shan's eyes lit up.
But the next second, he grabbed Yaya who was about to rush over and said warily: "Sister Yaya, don't be careless!"
"Ah?" A clear look appeared on Yaya's face.
Zhang Shan said seriously, "We must be extremely cautious when it comes to this mysterious little village deep in the mountains, because there are often ruthless people in this kind of place that is far away from the village and the shop!"
Upon hearing this, Yaya immediately understood Zhang Shan's idea and tensed up: "What should we do? Should we destroy this village?"
"No! It doesn't have to be that extreme." Zhang Shan said with a smile: "Let's go, we will emit demonic energy. If they are ordinary people and feel unwell, they will respect us. If they are cultivators, they will probably turn around and run away."
"Got it! You need to show off your muscles."
"Ruzi can be taught!"
The two men smiled wickedly, emitting a hint of evil spirit that brought up a gust of cool wind, and then they swaggered towards the village.
At this time, at the entrance of the village, a child who was playing with shit saw two people he had never seen before approaching. He immediately turned around and ran away, shouting, "Oh no! Outsiders have found us!"
