Chapter 2: Capture a human as a thank you gift

Chapter 2: Capture a human as a thank you gift

The fox ignored Xu Zhenfeng's repeated waving of his hands to refuse, and took a few steps forward with a coquettish and shaky attitude, and grabbed Xu Zhenfeng's wrist with force.

When his claws grabbed Xu Zhenfeng's wrist, they turned into a human hand, and then the whole fox turned into a human.

After the fox transformed into a human form, he was wearing a green shirt and looked like an elegant scholar.

This fox named Hu San was very strong. Xu Zhenfeng was half pulled and half dragged by him, and he staggered towards the dry riverbed involuntarily.

Seeing that Big Bear did not object to the fox taking him out of the Monster Mountain, Xu Zhenfeng became flustered, his mind racing, and he watched as the fox pulled him faster and faster.

"Mr. Xiong, thank you for not holding grudges against me and taking care of me. Please wait for me. I will be back in a few days. I will bring a valuable gift to repay you greatly."

Before being dragged too far by the fox, Xu Zhenfeng turned around and shouted a few words in Sichuan dialect at Big Bear.

After hearing what Xu Zhenfeng said, Big Bear's pair of dark eyes turned around. He watched the fox pulling Xu Zhenfeng farther and farther away, wondering what he was thinking about.

He blinked his eyes and suddenly shouted in the direction of the two monsters, "Hu San, you better escort this wolf monster out of the Monster Mountain. If you dare to eat him, I will throw you into the Nine Cauldrons Monster Refining Furnace to make monster pills."

As soon as Xiong Da said this, Hu San's hand that was holding Xu Zhenfeng trembled. He quickly turned around and smiled at Xiong Da flatteringly, "Don't worry, Xiong Da. I am a good demon who abides by the law and disciplines. I would never dare to violate the rules of the demon king."

As he was speaking, Xu Zhenfeng had already been pulled down by the fox, walked across the dried-up moat, and set foot on the road down the Demon Mountain.

Along the way, Hu San was very open and kept telling him about the Monster Mountain. Although Xu Zhenfeng was wary of him, he learned a lot about this world from him, especially about the Monster Mountain.

This so-called demon mountain does not actually refer to a specific mountain, but is the name of an area of ​​a thousand miles in radius. This place has high terrain, many mountains, dangerous roads and deep forests.

It is said that tens of thousands of years ago, the demons in the world were scattered all over the world, without any leadership over each other, fighting each other, and were jointly killed by humans and demons.

When it seemed that the demons in the world were about to be wiped out step by step by the humans and demons, a great demon from the dragon clan appeared among the demons with extraordinary talent and strength.

He united the demon tribes in the world and became the first demon king. He led the demon tribes in the world and fought against the human and demon tribes for countless bloody battles. In return, he reached an agreement among the three tribes, allowing the demon tribe to name this area Demon Mountain, where the demon tribe lived.

However, the demon clan can only live in the Demon Mountain and are not allowed to leave the Demon Mountain area, otherwise they will be killed by both humans and demons.

In this world, in addition to the Monster Mountain, there are also various animals or trees that transform into monsters in other places.

If you are lucky, once you transform and gain intelligence, the spirit pillar of the Demon Mountain will immediately emit a ray of spiritual consciousness that will be reflected in your mind, and the transformed demon will be able to know the direction of the Demon Mountain.

At this time, you must run to the Monster Mountain as hard as you can. As long as you can run to the territory of the Monster Mountain, you can save the monster's life.

If you are unlucky, you might be spotted by humans or demons when you transform, and die.

Even if they are not discovered when they transform, many monsters die on the way to the Monster Mountain.

Among the monsters that transform outside the Monster Mountain, less than a hundred out of a thousand can run back to the Monster Mountain alive and save their lives.

The world outside the Demon Mountain is shared by both humans and demons, but the two races are also competing for resources and fighting each other openly and secretly.

After all, this world is so small and there are only so many resources.

Humans, demons and monsters all need resources to survive, practice, and develop in order to protect the continuous reproduction of their race, so fighting is inevitable.

Generally speaking, among the three races, the human race still has the advantage. After all, it is the most intelligent creature in the world who is favored by heaven and earth.

The human race has established countless countries, large and small. Although they also compete for talents and resources among themselves, they are very united when facing the demons and monsters.

The demon race never leaves the demon mountain, but there are always demons born, and there are also demons from all over the world coming to join them. Resources have long been scarce and development has been restricted.

The strength of the demon race is now much weaker than that of the human and demon races.

Fortunately, the fighting between humans and demons was also very fierce. For some unknown reason, it seemed that neither of them wanted to exterminate the demon race for the time being.

Perhaps, both tribes thought that since the demon tribe could not leave the demon mountain, they would continue to weaken, and that was it. After the human race or the demon race was exterminated, it would not be too late to deal with the weak demon tribe.

If we destroy the demon clan now, if we are defeated, we won't even have an ally to join us and fight against the powerful enemy. This is not a safe approach.

Hu San took Xu Zhenfeng for a walk on the winding mountain road for most of the day, and talked to him for most of the day.

After passing two checkpoints, we entered a narrow passage sandwiched between two mountains.

Xu Zhenfeng had been worried that the fox would find a remote place to eat him, and his heart tightened after he walked into this narrow path.

This place is really suitable for killing people and setting fires. No, it’s for killing monsters and eating their meat.

He used the excuse that the path was narrow and difficult to walk on, quickly shook off the fox's hand and walked behind the fox.

The mountains on both sides of this narrow road are steep and the trees are lush. There is almost no sunlight. Looking up at the sky, one can only see a thin slit of light.

There were green flames floating on the cliffs on both sides, illuminating the path eerily. From time to time, gravel would rustle and roll down the mountain.

The sound of rubble rolling and the footsteps of the two monsters seemed abrupt and strange in this silent and endless narrow passage.

Hu San talked for a long time before he started asking Xu Zhenfeng.

"Little wolf demon, what's your name? Oh, you're only halfway transformed, you're not really a demon yet, so I guess you don't have a name yet."

Xu Zhenfeng hesitated for a moment and replied, "In response to your question, I have a name, Xu Zhenfeng."

"Xu? Hey, this is a human surname. Isn't your last name Lang?"

Xu Zhenfeng then remembered that Hu San seemed to have said that the monster tribe all used their surnames based on their species. However, this was nothing. He was seeking refuge with the little monster, so his name did not necessarily have to follow the local rules of the monster mountain.

He was cautiously on guard against the fox, fearing that he might suddenly attack and kill him, while thinking rapidly in his mind.

But in a split second, he replied respectfully, "I got this name when I was transformed. A voice in my head told me that my name was Xu Zhenfeng."

"Is there such a thing?"

The fox was surprised, but obviously didn't believe it. He turned around suddenly, looked at Xu Zhenfeng, then turned back and continued walking.

"I have never heard that the demons can be given names by the gods when they transform. We have never heard of any demons becoming gods in our demon tribe. Are you kidding me?"

"How could that be? I dare not deceive you, senior. This is how it is. Otherwise, how could I, who is only at the half level of the Yellow Rank and did not know how to speak before I transformed, know this surname and name?"

The fox turned his head to look at Xu Zhenfeng's lower body again, then turned back to continue leading the way, chuckling with a look of disdain on his face.

Xu Zhenfeng quickly covered his vital parts with one hand, his heart beating fast. The way this guy looked at him was so greedy. Could he be a gay?

"From what you said, your name was given by the gods? But this kind of thing only happens when the emperor of the human race or the great sage of the demon race is born, and the gods of the human race and the demon race will give the great sage or emperor a name.

We demons have never heard of demons becoming gods, but you can be given a name after you transform? The gods of the human and demon races will not give names to demons. Who knows if you heard someone call you this name outside and are now using it to deceive me? "

Hu San continued speaking as he walked.

Xu Zhenfeng didn't know how to explain it, so he had to change the subject and asked, "Why don't we have any demons who can become gods?"

Hu San sighed for the first time and said, "We demons are born and raised naturally, so it is difficult to practice. How difficult is it to practice and become a god?"

"How many humans have cultivated to become gods?"

"Of course. Humans are the most intelligent creatures in the universe and are loved by heaven and earth. They have a unique advantage in cultivation. The most numerous gods in the God Realm are human gods."

"oh oh."

Xu Zhenfeng seemed to understand something and asked, "Brother Hu San, you said that the most common gods in the God Realm are human gods, and there are no gods in the demon race. Could it be that there are gods from other races?"

"The demons, there are some who have become gods, but still much fewer than humans."

"I see. Then where is the divine realm?"

Hu San turned his head to look at him, pointed to the sky, and said, "The God Realm is naturally outside this world, and the God Realm is the realm of eternal life.

Isn't it that humans, demons and monsters compete for resources to cultivate, just to become gods and achieve eternal ascension?

Only when one has cultivated to the extreme can one comprehend the avenue of heaven and earth that will lead to leaving this world, and then through the avenue of heaven and earth, reach the divine realm and achieve eternal life as a god. "

After listening to what Hu San said, Xu Zhenfeng finally understood the general rules and operating principles of this world.

After Hu San finished speaking, he began to ask Xu Zhenfeng indirectly about the origin of his name.

In fact, Xu Zhenfeng just didn't want to change his name in his previous life, and he couldn't give any convincing reason.

Hu San naturally didn't believe that this name was given to him by the gods in the divine world.

After asking for a long time, he kept saying that the name Xu Zhenfeng was definitely not a name given by God.

He must have heard the name somewhere before and wrote it down for his own use.

As Hu San was chattering, the two monsters walked forward one after the other for a long time. They finally saw the exit of the narrow road not far ahead. There were still monster soldiers guarding the exit.

Seeing Hu San and Xu Zhenfeng coming from afar, one of the demon soldiers asked loudly, "Hu San, who are you going to take down the demon mountain?"

Hu San already had a flattering smile on his face. "Inspector Xiong Da arranged for me to send this half-demon down the Monster Mountain. He hasn't fully transformed yet, and Xiong Da is afraid that he will be targeted by other monsters. We can't leave him in the Monster Mountain. We have to send him out and wait until he is fully transformed before returning to the Monster Mountain."

After saying that, a black sign that was neither gold nor wood appeared in his hand. He held it high and showed it to the demon soldiers at the exit.

Those soldiers were all in human form, and it was impossible to tell what kind of monster they were. They all wore dark grey armor of a strange style, and it was impossible to tell what the armor was made of. They all held long spears in their hands.

When Hu San and Xu Zhenfeng reached the exit of the narrow passage, one of the demon soldiers took the sign and handed it to a leading demon general behind him for inspection.

The demon general checked the sign and threw it back to Hu San. He then looked at Xu Zhenfeng and said, "Isn't this the wolf demon you dragged back yesterday? How come it's only half transformed?"

Hu San smiled and said, "Who said it wasn't true? When I dragged him back, he was still in wolf form, and the demonic energy on his body was extremely strong. I didn't expect that he had such a strong demonic energy, but he was only half transformed.

I didn't find out until he woke up and changed his form. I was so unlucky that I dragged him back to the Monster Mountain. I thought I could earn some credit from the Monster Registration Bureau, but it was all in vain. Not only did I not earn any credit, but I had to make another trip to send him away."
