Open up the world in Journey to the West

Demon Master Kunpeng looked at the child in front of him and liked it very much. Although he looked calm on the surface, he really liked him in his heart.

The little boy also stayed with them. Su Zian saw that the little boy's clothes were dirty and torn, so he took the little boy to buy a new set of clothes and asked him to take a bath and change into them.

Because of this, the little boy felt a warmth he had never felt before in Su Zian's place, which also made him very happy.

But when he thought about how he would leave here with Demon Master Kunpeng in a few days, in his own opinion, he liked Su Zian more.

As night fell, under the stars, the little boy sat on the mound and looked up at the sky.

Sun Wukong came out to look for the boy at this time, and happened to see the boy very lonely there, so he walked over.

"Why are you here alone?"

Sun Wukong walked over, looked at the little boy and said.

When the little boy saw that it was Sun Wukong, he immediately had his own thoughts in mind.

"Actually, I like brother Zi'an more. I wonder if I can follow him?"

The little boy thought about it for a long time. He didn't dare to say this at first, but it was indeed his inner thoughts.

When he heard the little boy say this, Sun Wukong looked at the boy in front of him in disbelief.

"But Demon Master Kunpeng likes you very much. If you follow him, you can learn many useful skills."

Sun Wukong did not expect that the little boy would like Su Zian, but in his opinion, Sun Wukong knew very well that it was absolutely impossible for Su Zian to accept a disciple by his side.

"Can you help me? I really hope I can follow Brother Zian."

The little boy looked at Sun Wukong with pleading eyes. He didn't want to leave with Kunpeng, he just wanted to stay with Su Zian.

Sun Wukong didn't know what to say for a moment, but Sun Wukong knew very well and understood Su Zian very well. It was absolutely impossible for Su Zian to bring a child by his side.

"I advise you to give up and follow Kunpeng well. You will learn a lot of skills."

Sun Wukong patted the little boy on the shoulder and told him not to think about it all the time, and then left here.

Kunpeng's wounds have not fully recovered, so they are temporarily living in the farmer's house.

The little boy has been living in Kunpeng's room since he was brought back.

"Get me a glass of water."

After Kunpeng finished his exercise, he glanced at the dazed little boy next to him and asked him to pour him a glass of water.

The little boy looked absent-minded, as if he hadn't heard Kunpeng's words.

"I asked you to pour me a glass of water, what are you doing?"

Seeing that the little boy was indifferent, Kunpeng was a little angry, so his tone became more serious.

The little boy reacted immediately and reluctantly went to get a glass of water and placed it next to Kunpeng.

Kunpeng could see that this little boy looked absent-minded. Even if he had a lot of spiritual energy and didn't learn these skills properly, if he was absent-minded all day long, he wouldn't learn anything at all.

"What's wrong with you?"

Demon Master Kunpeng looked at the little boy and saw that she was so absent-minded, and he was already very angry.

"I...I'm fine."

The little boy lowered his head, not wanting to explain.

"Just cheer up if you have nothing to do. What's going on like this?"

Demon Master Kunpeng has always been very strict with his disciples. He always believes that the more serious he is in teaching them, the better they will learn more. If they are so lazy, they will not be able to learn anything at all.

"I don't want to follow you."

The little boy heard Kunpeng accusing him, so he mustered up the courage to raise his head, looked at Kunpeng in front of him, and said that he did not want to follow him.

When Kunpeng heard this, he looked at the little boy in obvious disbelief, but it could be seen from the little boy's eyes that he did think this way.

"If you don't want to follow me, why are you still here?"

Kunpeng looked at the little boy. He was not angry at all. This is everyone's own choice.

"I would rather follow Brother Zian. I know you are very good and a master of catching monsters, but in my heart I prefer Brother Zian."

The little boy expressed all his thoughts. He really liked Su Zian better.

After hearing the little boy's inner thoughts, Kunpeng was not angry at all, he just looked at the little boy like this.

"This is your own inner thought. Now that you have made your decision, I will go and have a good talk with him."

After Kunpeng thought about it, he realized that the little boy in front of him was not suitable to be his apprentice. Although he had plenty of aura, his talent was always lacking.

"really?"

When the little boy heard that Kunpeng was going to discuss this matter with Su Zian, he immediately became happy.

Su Zian was looking at the terrain in his hands. After Kunpeng's wound healed, they would go their separate ways.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Su Zian went to open the door and found that the person outside was Kunpeng.

"It's so late? Why don't you have a good rest?"

Su Zian was very surprised, because Kunpeng had been recovering from his injuries in the room for the past few days.

"You're not that little kid yet. You told me today that you don't want to follow me. It seems like it's really not suitable for me, so I don't know if I can follow you."

Kunpeng always spoke very directly. He told Su Zian the little boy's inner thoughts very directly.

When Su Zian heard this, he frowned because the little boy had never told him these things.

"I also feel that he is not suitable to follow me, so I came to tell you."

Demon Master Kunpeng continued.

After Su Zian heard these words, he didn't make up his mind, but since Kunpeng didn't want the little boy to follow him, there was no way he could force it.

"Okay then, this matter is settled like this."

As soon as Su Zian finished speaking, there was the sound of footsteps outside the door. The little boy ran in this direction very eagerly. When he saw the two people talking, the little boy seemed to understand something instantly.

"Master, I regret it. I shouldn't have said those words to you."

The little boy knelt down in front of Kunpeng without saying anything. After this operation, Su Zian and Kunpeng couldn't understand it at all.

Kunpeng prepared to leave without saying anything, and the little boy followed him immediately.

"Master, I think too much, but I really want to follow you. What I just said to you is not what I think in my heart. Can you give me another chance?"

The little boy came to Kunpeng and said that he regretted it.

"You have to understand that there is no regret medicine in this world. Now that you have made a decision, you cannot change it. Let this be the case."

Kunpeng suddenly wondered in his heart whether the little boy in front of him was the kind of apprentice he wanted. He should not regret his decision. Since he would regret it, he should not make it easily.

Seeing Kunpeng leave, the little boy felt very regretful.

Suddenly, the little boy seemed to think of something and ran back immediately. When Su Zian was about to close the door, the little boy immediately appeared in front of him. "It's all my fault. I really wanted to follow the master, but I just said something against my will."

The little boy looked at Su Zian and Sun Wukong in front of him. Now that Kunpeng has decided to take action, there are only two people who can help him.

"How can we help you?"

Su Zian also felt very strange. Since the decision was made by himself, it would be very rude to change it easily.

The little boy lowered his head.

"Monster Master Kunpeng has overcome all obstacles along the way and collected so many evil monsters. I want to follow him. Can you please help me?"

The little boy looked at Sun Wukong and Su Zian in front of him, hoping that they could help him.

Su Zian and Sun Wukong looked at each other and said nothing, but they seemed to have said everything.

"Go back first, and we'll talk about anything tomorrow."

Su Zian sighed. The little boy was uncertain, and he couldn't say anything for sure.

Just like that, the little boy left in despair.

"Help him?"

Sun Wukong looked at Su Zian and asked.

"Since I really want to follow him, I will ask Kunpeng tomorrow what he wants. If he doesn't want to, I won't force him."

Su Zian finally agreed.

The next morning.

The little boy got up early and took out all his savings. He knew that everything he did yesterday was wrong, so he planned to apologize today.

The little boy first went to the street, entered a winery, and bought a bottle of good wine. This had already cost him almost all his savings. He looked at the good wine in his hand and believed that Kunpeng would definitely forgive him.

After repeated hesitation, Su Zian came to Kunpeng's room.

When Kunpeng saw Su Zian, he knew very clearly that it must be because of the little boy.

"Since the little boy wants to follow you so much, you feel very lonely on the road alone, so you have a companion, right?"

Su Zian looked at Kunpeng. Although he didn't know what to say, he wanted to tell Kunpeng that this little boy was a good prospect and could be accepted.

Kunpeng was still very confused at this time. He had already packed all his luggage and the wounds on his body had almost healed. He could not continue to wander around this place. He had to do what he should do.

"You can think about it carefully. The little boy probably really wants to follow you."

Su Zian still tried hard to persuade Kunpeng.

"Master….Master…"

While the two were chatting, the little boy's voice came in from outside, and the little boy's figure immediately appeared at the door, holding good wine and food in his hand.

"Master, I know I have done many things wrong. I hope you can forgive me."

The little boy appeared at the door panting, hoping to be forgiven by Kunpeng.

The little boy looked at Demon Master Kunpeng very sincerely, and really hoped that Demon Master Kunpeng could forgive him for everything he said yesterday.

Su Zian and Sun Wukong were watching. Only Kunpeng could make the decision on this matter.

Kunpeng looked at the little boy in front of him and suddenly sighed.

"If you want to become my apprentice, then you must concentrate on learning what I give you, and never do what you did last night again."

Kunpeng finally relented. Overall, this matter was the little boy's fault.

"I won't do it anymore. I did something wrong yesterday. I hope Master can forgive me."

The little boy was very excited. He put all the good wine and food he had brought back on my table, and then kept repeating himself, hoping to get Kunpeng's forgiveness.

"Then I take back what I said last night. You don't need to buy these good wines and food. Only if you really want to be a monster hunter can you succeed."

Kunpeng really needs an apprentice by his side. This little boy is so spiritual, and he wants him to follow him.

"Follow Master's teachings carefully, and my disciples will always remember them."

In this way, Kunpeng agreed to continue taking the little boy away.

Su Zian and Sun Wukong were relieved. After all, the little boy suddenly didn't want to follow Kunpeng last night, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

"Pack all your luggage today, it's time to leave here."

Kunpeng told his apprentice that now that his injuries have completely healed, he can continue to look for monsters.

"I'll go right now."

The little boy was very happy, which can be described as excited.

Kunpeng and Su Zian began to discuss where they would go next. Without Su Zian's care during this period, his injuries would not have worn out so quickly.

"We should continue driving in the east direction. Since we have decided to leave, let's go to the entrance of the village and then separate."

Su Zian looked at Kunpeng and said, they don't need to be too anxious.

"it is good."

Kunpeng nodded.

Everyone went to pack their things. When Su Zian was leaving, he gave the farmer a bunch of copper coins as a token of his care these days.

A few people arrived at the entrance of the village, and when two roads appeared in front of them, they were ready to part ways.

"The days are long and I hope we can meet again."

Kunpeng said.

"Most definitely."

Su Zian believed that they would definitely meet.

Just when the four of them were about to leave, they suddenly smelled a monster coming from nearby.

"There is a very strong evil spirit, can you smell it?"

Su Zian immediately felt that there were monsters around, so he asked others if they smelled this monster aura.

"I think I smell it too, right over there."

Sun Wukong immediately headed in that direction to see what kind of monster was doing evil over there.

Everyone followed up. It was the first time for the little boy to see such a scene, so he followed behind with some fear.

In this way, when everyone came to a cliff not far away, they saw a monster in front of them.

"It's Centipede Spirit!"

Sun Wukong did not expect to see the centipede spirit in this place. The centipede spirit is also the most terrifying kind of monsters. (End of chapter)
