After listening to Zhu Yushun's words, Niu Yuanping smiled back at him.
He said politely: "Then I will inevitably have to bother senior more often. Thank you in advance."
"No need to be so polite!"
Zhu Yushun chuckled and said, "If you are willing, you can be my apprentice and call me master! I will definitely teach you everything you have!"
Hearing this, Niu Yuanping still kept smiling.
He continued to say politely, "I would like to have you as my teacher, of course!"
at this time.
Sun Lan on the side looked at the master, and he was so close to the guy who he once regarded as a loser.
There was inevitably another wave of injustice in my heart, and my face became extremely gloomy.
When they first forged a friendship, they never thought that one day they would have the same person as their teacher.
This is really a narrow road between enemies...
At this time, Zhu Yushun hid a demon-collecting bag on his body and said: "Now that the task has been completed, let's go."
After saying that, he turned around and left, followed closely by Sun Lan.
Under the moonlight, Niu Yuanping watched the two of them walking on the deserted long street, his eyes moving slightly, thoughtfully.
"Why lie?..."
I pondered it silently in my mind.
It turned out that he was confused about one thing and couldn't figure it out.
So, he ordered the super brain system in his mind, "Check whether there is any non-human biological electromagnetic field within a kilometer of the surrounding area at this moment!"
[Received, please wait]
While waiting for a reply, Niu Yuanping slowly followed the two of them and quietly observed.
Not long after, there was a reply from the super brain system.
[It is no longer possible to detect the presence of non-human bioelectromagnetic fields in the surrounding area]
Niu Yuanping frowned when he heard this reply.
"There's none?……"
My doubts were not confirmed.
But his heart gradually fell back into his stomach.
After a long time,
He murmured to himself, "Am I too worried?..."
Just muttering to himself, he followed the direction Zhu Yushun and Sun Lan were walking.
…
the next day.
The news that the demons in Tongyi Town were killed and eliminated by the demon slayers spread throughout Sioux City, as well as all the surrounding villages and towns, large and small.
The impact caused by the monkey spirit evil this time was really great, and the casualties and losses were really heavy.
Even Lord Fu Yin of Su City was killed.
Therefore, as the demon slayers who completed this mission, Zhu Yushun, Sun Lan, Hu Dafeng and Kan Xingming all received considerable rewards.
Although Niu Yuanping had not officially joined the Demon Suppression Division at that time, due to his outstanding performance, he received a reward of fifty thousand taels of gold.
This reward amount is more than twice that of Sun Lan, Kan Xingming and Hu Dafeng.
Moreover, he was officially invited to join the Demon Suppression Division and gained the status of a second-level demon slayer.
Although it went round and round and went through a lot of twists and turns, it finally got the approval of the Demon Suppression Division.
Zhu Yushun submitted an application to the Demon Suppression Department, allowing Niu Yuanping to stay in Sucheng to guard.
Soon Niu Yuanping had his own house in the Demon Slayer Guards Mansion in Su City.
Su City is a large city with many vassal villages and towns, so there cannot be too few demon-slayers guarding it.
There were a total of eleven people in the mansion, including Niu Yuanping.
There are six third-level demon slayers and five second-level demon slayers.
This lineup is quite large for the Demon Suppression Division, which is often short of manpower.
Su City is not too far from the Demon Suppression Department. If a particularly urgent incident occurs, timely support can be provided, so there is no need to send people with level 3 demon slayers or above to guard here.
Therefore, the highest level of demon slayers guarding this city is only the third level.
…
However.
The day after Niu Yuanping moved into the Demon Slayer's guarding mansion, Zhu Yushun asked for leave.
He said that he would go back to the place he rented before and pack up the things he left there.
actually.
He also had nothing to pack at all.
Saying it was to pack things was actually just an excuse.
After killing so many evil monkey spirits in Tongyi Town, the super brain system also absorbed a lot of bioelectric energy.
After systematic bio-electromagnetic field transformation, Niu Yuanping is fed back.
Faintly, there were signs that he was going to advance.
It is very likely that he will advance to the third level of demon slayer!
Level 3 demon slayers will condense soul crystals in their soul dantian.
If he successfully possesses the soul crystal, he can generate more bioelectric energy to upgrade the super brain system.
After all, the guard's mansion was a strange place for Niu Yuanping, with many people and mixed eyes.
You can imagine.
When you first arrive, you will inevitably have to deal with the world of people.
To advance his cultivation and upgrade his system, he needs to calm down.
If you want to be quiet, you have to close the door and see no one.
However, closing the door and thanking guests as soon as he entered the governor's mansion... would seem strange to him.
So, just find a reason to go back to the rented house and stay alone for a few days.
Niu Yuanping planned to have good interactions with the group of demon-slayers when his cultivation level advanced and the system entered the upgrade process.
But, actually.
He's a little pretentious...
The demon slayers are all very busy...
It is estimated that even if he stayed in the governor's mansion, it would be difficult for anyone to take the time to chat with him.
No.
It was the afternoon when he took leave and returned to his rental house.
The mansion received another report from the Yamen.
It was said that a resentful spirit appeared in Yuke Village, which was four hundred miles away.
Because several third-level demon-slayers have tasks on their hands.
So for the time being, I couldn't find a suitable candidate to go to Yuke Village.
After some deliberation, we could only choose to put it on hold for now.
Or wait until the next day. If Niu Yuanping comes back, let him go with a second-level demon slayer.
Although he is also a second-level demon slayer, after the incident of killing the monkey spirit in Tongyizhen, people have already recognized Niu Yuanping's strength.
Therefore, I felt free to let him bring a second-level demon slayer to complete this mission.
However, Sun Lan was not convinced after hearing this arrangement.
Why?
Everyone only sees Niu Yuanping, so what does that mean to him?
Ever since he was a child, he has always been the one in charge of the limelight, and others can only look up to him and admire him.
Now I am being ignored several times!
Sun Lan was very angry.
Without Niu Yuanping, nothing could be done?
What a joke!
Therefore, he does not believe in this evil.
Decided not to wait for Niu Yuanping and went on his own!
"This time, I want others to be impressed by me, Sun Lan, too!!"
With this feeling in mind, he rushed to Yuke Village.
When he arrived at Yuke Village, it was almost evening.
Sun Lan walked on the path between the villages with a knife on his back.
To be honest, I was walking in a hurry and couldn't tell the difference between east, west and north.
"I need to find someone to ask..."
Not long after, an old man walked over.
Seeing this, Sun Lan quickly approached and asked, "Old man, are there any evil spirits around here?"
The old man raised his eyes and looked him over.
He asked, "Are you from out of town?"
Sun Lan nodded, "I am indeed from another place."
The old man came closer, stared at him, and said mysteriously, "You asked! The abandoned houses in the village are often haunted. As a stranger, you must not spend the night there! If you want to spend the night, you have to Go to the inn!”
When Sun Lan heard this, she felt quite excited.
Sure enough, it’s here!
So he quickly asked, "Where is that abandoned house?"
The old man was stunned.
He looked at him with a surprised expression, as if he was a fool.
"Why are you asking about this? What? Are you going to live in an abandoned house?"
"Yes, that's exactly where I'm going!"
The old man snorted coldly, "You kid, are you really ignorant?! I've told you that the abandoned house is haunted, and you still want to go?"
Sun Lan smiled proudly and said, "I'm not afraid of ghosts! The one who is afraid of ghosts is my grandson!"
What a joke, he came here just to regain his courage and dignity!
At this moment, the old man rolled his eyes at him and said to himself angrily, "When I meet someone who is not afraid of death..."
Then he pointed in one direction and said, "Go that way! Go through an alley, turn left, and go downhill!"
After saying that, he left angrily.
This made Sun Lan, who wanted to say thank you, a little confused.
Looking at the old man's back, he was a little confused.
After a while, he said to himself, "This old man... has a bad temper!"
Say it and ignore it.
Before it got completely dark, I followed the direction pointed by the old man and walked towards the so-called deserted house.
