"He willingly chose it, and actually likes the name Yellow Ox?" On the road, Zhou Quan learned about this situation with his jaw dropped, feeling quite unbalanced at the same time.
Because he once named the ox "Ox Demon King," only to be despised by it, showing a look of disdain. However, in the end, that picky creature chose such a name?
"Moo!"
The yellow ox mooed, holding its head high, looking very proud, as if it was quite pleased with this nice-sounding name, quite satisfied.
"You're still proud?" Zhou Quan didn't know what to say anymore.
In his view, what a rustic name it was! It was also surprising that the ox accepted it!
The yellow ox glanced sideways at Zhou Quan with disdain, implying, What's wrong with you? Do you have any objections?
"You ticket scalper, how dare you be so proud? Don't you have a communicator? Quickly go check what 'yellow ox' means!" Zhou Quan said.
The yellow ox looked suspicious, showing a puzzled expression.
Seeing that things were going south, Chu Feng felt somewhat guilty and said, "Don't listen to him talking nonsense. Let's hurry up on our journey!"
Alert, the yellow ox knew Chu Feng very well. After hearing this, it decisively took out the communicator, frantically tapped on it, and after reading, it was stunned for a moment, speechless.
"So, what do you think?" Zhou Quan asked with a sarcastic smile.
The yellow ox came back to its senses, looking unfriendly, nostrils beginning to emit white smoke. Then, with a grimacing look, it stared at Chu Feng, started digging and stomping the ground with its hooves, ready to charge over!
Chu Feng remained calm, spoke unhurriedly, saying, "What do those ordinary people know? Don't be misled. I'm telling you, the term 'yellow ox' is actually extraordinary, containing deep meanings, but it has been misinterpreted in recent years!"
The yellow ox stopped, feeling doubtful.
Chu Feng looked solemn, explaining earnestly, "Carefully look into it. What does yellow represent? In ancient times, it was a symbol of honor and nobility, only used by the royal family, like the yellow robe, incomparably noble! As for the word 'ox,' it can be said to be great! You see, nowadays, whenever someone mentions something impressive, people usually give a thumbs-up and say, 'Awesome!'"
Zhou Quan gaped, watching him spout nonsense seriously.
Finally, he couldn't hold back anymore and added, "The word 'ox' has too many uses, for example, awesome!"
Chu Feng deliberately put on a serious face, rebutting, "Vulgar!"
Zhou Quan disagreed, defending himself, "It's not vulgar. There's one more common term I haven't mentioned, which is 'awesome.'"
Bang!
The yellow ox kicked him away, looking unfriendly, warning him not to talk nonsense!
Zhou Quan was indignant, having nowhere to reason. He told the truth and got kicked directly. Meanwhile, Chu Feng spouted nonsense, yet the ox listened with great enthusiasm, nodding frequently.
"Therefore, combining 'yellow' and 'ox' together is indeed excellent, a good name. Don't mind those ordinary people's misinterpretations!" Chu Feng said.
"Moo!" The yellow ox nodded, indicating agreement.
Where could he seek justice? Zhou Quan turned away angrily, looking elsewhere, saying, "You guys are something, 'a field of an ox!'"
"He's cursing you," Chu Feng reminded the yellow ox.
What did he mean? The yellow ox was confused.
"No such thing, I was just saying that the ox family has a field, ignore him!" Zhou Quan hurriedly explained, fearing the wrath of the Ox Demon King.
Meanwhile, walking through this desolate mountainous area, he became increasingly anxious. Where were they? No village ahead, no inn behind, everywhere mountains filled with miasma.
"Roar..."
Suddenly, a huge beast roared, the wind howling in the forest, leaves rustling, creating a chilling atmosphere.
With a swoosh, all the hairs on Zhou Quan's body stood up; he felt a chill throughout his body.
"Brother, I think we've taken the wrong path. We mistakenly entered these primeval mountains. Let's retreat quickly!" He was scared, looking flustered and extremely anxious.
"This is the right path. Just get through here. Do you know what 'another world within' means? Have you heard of 'a paradise beyond the world'?" Chu Feng smiled.
"What? Behind these mountains?" Zhou Quan was surprised but immediately showed great interest, excitedly rubbing his hands, saying, "No wonder it's built by a financial tycoon, truly grandiose. The appearance of these primeval mountains adds a mysterious touch to this place!"
"It's not just a few touches of mystery. When you get there, you'll understand. It's mysteriously baffling, guaranteed to make you bewildered!" Chu Feng calmly said.
Zhou Quan kept nodding, saying, "I really look forward to it!"
Eventually, they entered the primeval mountains, and Zhou Quan began his fantastic journey!
"Aah!"
Walking along, Zhou Quan screamed loudly, goosebumps covering his body, jumping high, almost scared to death.
Ahead, there was a giant bear, its face alone as big as a house, peeking out from the thorns, nearly bumping into Zhou Quan, almost giving him a bear kiss.
One should know that when this bear opened its bloody mouth, it could swallow several adults in one bite.
Zhou Quan was almost scared to wet his pants, scrambling backward, trembling, hiding behind Chu Feng and the yellow ox.
Chu Feng gave a light shout, startling the giant bear, which then turned and fled in panic because it had seen this human kill even more formidable monsters before.
"It... ran away?" Zhou Quan was shocked, looking puzzled.
"Nothing much, just a big bear, raised in the villa. Actually, it's quite timid. Didn't you see it run away when I shouted?" Chu Feng explained calmly.
Zhou Quan was perplexed. What kind of villa was this, truly mystifying? Although terrified, he was even more curious!
"Ghost..." Soon, Zhou Quan screamed again.
He inadvertently looked up and saw a thumb-thick white silk thread hanging a millstone-sized ghost-faced spider descending from a giant ancient tree, less than three feet away from his head.
Terrified, he collapsed, sitting on the ground, crawling backward.
Bang!
Chu Feng casually kicked the big spider away.
Zhou Quan rolled his eyes, swallowing hard, then patted his chest, feeling suffocated, almost fainting from fright.
"Brother, this path isn't easy. Maybe we shouldn't go further. Why do I feel like I'm watching a prehistoric blockbuster? What kind of monsters are these, one after another?"
He breathed heavily, almost unable to bear the fear.
At the same time, he thought Chu Feng was incredibly brave, kicking such a large spider without blinking an eye.
Soon, Zhou Quan's eyes widened, realizing Chu Feng's bravery wasn't that simple.
Because a one-eyed wolf silently appeared in the woods, enormous, ten meters long, several meters tall, with fangs like snow-white long knives, sharp beyond compare.
Moreover, this old wolf had wings on both sides, capable of flight!
Zhou Quan wanted to run away in terror, but found Chu Feng charging forward instead, striking with his fist calmly.
The next moment, Zhou Quan was dumbfounded.
Chu Feng was extraordinarily agile, his fists roaring with wind and thunder, hitting the one-eyed old wolf, making it howl and retreat continuously.
"Am I dreaming? What am I seeing? Revisiting the ancient era, witnessing a real wilderness blockbuster?!" Zhou Quan bit his lip hard, confirming he wasn't dreaming.
He kept retreating in fear, wanting to turn and run.
The yellow ox beside him showed disdain, soon disappearing, returning later with a three-meter-tall monkey, leading it towards Zhou Quan.
"Aah... Help!"
Zhou Quan screamed in terror, frightened. The monkey was too big, over three meters tall, with sharp white teeth, looking down at him as if he were a chick.
The place erupted into chaos, Zhou Quan fleeing desperately, the big monkey chasing fiercely.
"Roar..."
Desperate, Zhou Quan spat out a flame, capable of melting metal and stone, scorching hot, instantly turning a towering ancient tree into ashes.
The big monkey retreated in fear.
Zhou Quan, pale-faced, also retreated.
Chu Feng dealt with the one-eyed old wolf and walked over.
"Stay calm, use your abilities. As an extraordinary person, why fear a monkey?" Chu Feng encouraged.
"Brother, don't play tricks like this. What kind of place is this? Where's my paradise?" Zhou Quan cried, shaking.
"The villa isn't for everyone. This is a necessary test. Only by passing can you proceed. You must defeat this big monkey," Chu Feng said seriously.
"Aah..." Zhou Quan screamed, unable to avoid fighting. The big monkey lunged at him savagely, intent on killing.
"Huff..."
Zhou Quan opened his mouth, continuously spitting out flames, engulfing the area.
Chu Feng and the yellow ox rushed to put out the fire, genuinely afraid he would burn down the forest.
In the end, the big monkey was severely injured and fled.
Zhou Quan sat on the ground, lying down eventually, gasping for breath, drenched in sweat, exhausted from fear.
"Brother, forget about the paradise. Let's go back. My poor heart can't take this!" Zhou Quan cried.
"Since we've come this far, stay calm. Look, you've repelled such a fierce monkey. As an extraordinary person, you're powerful. What's there to fear?" Chu Feng comforted.
"This place isn't fit for humans, too scary, full of prehistoric monsters. I want to go back!" Zhou Quan shook his head vigorously.
But Chu Feng and the yellow ox refused to turn back.
"Hey, right, how can you be so strong, dealing with such a big one-eyed old wolf?"
Only Zhou Quan had thick nerves, taking so long to remember this, looking very surprised, asking.
Of course, mainly because he was terrified, his mind in chaos, until now gradually calming down.
"If you fight beasts every day here, you'd also handle them calmly, not like now," Chu Feng said.
Later, when Chu Feng fought a giant bird dozens of meters long, Zhou Quan's eyes widened. He realized how astonishing his friend was.
"A fantasy blockbuster!" he muttered.
Because Chu Feng and the giant bird fought intensely, from the ground to the ancient trees, chasing each other into the sky.
Chu Feng leapt up, stepping on the giant bird's back, following its ascent, punching repeatedly. After gliding hundreds of meters in the air, he killed the giant bird, falling together into the forest.
Zhou Quan felt slightly delusional. Today's experience was too impactful, almost unbelievable, hard to recover from.
"Is this... paradise?"
After a while, he murmured, waking up, but truly couldn't withstand such "gentle" treatment.
"Aah..."
Next, Zhou Quan experienced horror blockbusters, wilderness blockbusters, fantasy blockbusters, all epic-level, but terrifying, often having to endure them firsthand.
This day felt like a year for him!
Finally, Zhou Quan cried, gaining a profound understanding.
"I finally understand why people say 'the paradise of heroes is their tomb.' How painfully true this is, oh... I cry!"
