Sky Ruler
27. Out of the woods.
"Do you recognize me now, Laohu?" liiu Yaoshan said as he glanced towards his beloved pet time in the Sky Palace.
AAUUM!
Laohu roared loudly, until the giant animals in the monster forest became frightened due to the terrifying smell.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Liiu! I almost made a mistake, for wanting to attack Master!" laohu's words turned polite as his bowed head obediently.
"I should be the one apologizing! Because of my weak power, making you this miserable!" liiu Yaoshan said as he stroked the top of Laohu's head.
Yihua, who witnessed the incident. Being astonished by Liiu Yaoshan's attitude. Not only was Liiu Yaoshan strong, he also had a kind heart, and was also sincere.
The proof, a ferocious beast like a giant tiger before him, had an enormous loyalty. It signified Liiu Yaoshan, never being rude to any living being who was nearby.
"Sorry, Sir! I heard earlier that if you want to go to the southern mountains, is that true? if allowed, allow the servant to take you there." said Laohu, swiping his large head into the hands of Liiu Yaoshan.
Laohu's behavior, just like a little cat to his master. The soul of the animal will never change, whether it be a big cat, a small cat, or a giant, it must be the same. Submissive, if you meet the right employer.
Liiu Yaoshan smiled, then spoke lovingly to Laohu, his pet.
"It would be very troublesome to carry you in this big shape, Laohu!"
Liiu Yaoshan's words unabashedly made Laohu feel sorrow.
He was very happy to see Liiu Yaoshan again.
But now, his pleasure was as if he wanted to be forcibly taken away from him.
"Do you want to leave me again?" laohu said that turned grim.
"I didn't say it!"
Laohu's large face seemed confused by Liiu Yaoshan's words.
"I mean, Mister?" ask Laohu astonished.
"I'll let you into my 'Heaven' Pagoda, how?"
In addition to the place of confinement of Devils and Demons, 'The Sky Pagoda can also be converted into a temporary residence for Laohu.
Even though it looks small. In fact, there were still plenty of empty rooms inside the 'Heaven Pavilion' and Liiu Yaoshan could freely choose whichever room he would use to enter the Demon or Demon he wanted.
And for Laohu, Liiu Yaoshan has a special place that can also make Laohu feel comfortable in there.
A place that was almost the same as a forest, but contained a lot of energy in it, so that Laohu could more easily increase strength.
"Hamba agrees, sir! As long as the servant is always with you, sir. No problem, I will be placed anywhere." said Laohu with a feeling of pleasure because he could finally meet Liiu Yaoshan and will not be separated again.
"Now, come in!" Liiu Yaoshan directly opened the soul gate towards the 'Heaven Pagoda'
Without asking much more, Laohu immediately entered and disappeared from sight.
After clearing up Laohu's troubles, Liiu Yaoshan then fused his arms in front of his chest with his eyes closed. Exactly the same as the man who was doing the hermitage.
After a few minutes, Liiu Yaoshan pushed both his hands up. And ....
_Wusshhh!_
Even the once dark forest, turned into a refreshing green forest.
"Ruler!" Yihua ran over to Liiu Yaoshan with a radiance of admiration in her eyes.
Many times Yihua had to endure the pounding inside her chest, which inexplicably now frequently appeared as she continued to stare at Liiu Yaoshan's face.
"Come, let's get out of this forest, miss!" take Liiu Yaoshan with her feet.
Yihua without saying much anymore directly followed Liiu Yaoshan's footsteps. She turned into a docile girl, and was also shy. Not like the first time he decided to go.
After coming out of the forest area, the two of them finally arrived at a small town that was very crowded by the queue of the immigrants.
"Young man! Since you came last, then you should also queue at the very back." scolded a man whose queue was preceded by Liiu Yaoshan who did not know the rules.
"I'm sorry, Uncle. I'll go now!"
Liiu Yaoshan went to the back row, after asking Yihua to stand second last before him.
"The entrance ticket of each person was ten gold coins! Little boy seven gold coins!" say the city guards to everyone in line.
That number was actually too large, for poor people like them. However, because to enter the city, they had no other way but to give away the gold coins.
Then came Yihua and Liiu Yaoshan, who had to pay the same amount to the guards.
Once successful, they are allowed to enter the city. Liiu Yaoshan was astonished by the sighting of the contents of the city, which was filled with people who were sprawled and left lying on the ground, with no pedestal blocking their bodies from dirt and dust.
"What's this about? Why is everyone sleeping on the ground?" Yihua said softly her heart was so shaken by seeing such people.
Out of curiosity, Liiu Yaoshan tried to ask the man who was passing by in front of him.
"Sorry, Uncle. If you can tell, what is this problem? Why is everyone lying in the middle of the street?" liiu Yaoshan asked with a careless feeling.
"They're all poor, young man! They have no home or money to buy food. That's why they sleep there!" answer the man.
"Are they immigrants, just like me?" ask Liiu Yaoshan again.
"If it's a newcomer, they won't be this poor!"
"What does that mean, Uncle?" Liiu Yaoshan did not understand the man's answer.
"Let's see that guy, young man! He just came over, and was directly lying on the ground, right?" point the man to one of the people who did the thing he mentioned.
"Yes, I saw it, Uncle." Liiu Yaoshan replied in astonishment.
What does this have to do with the new person coming up with the question, Liiu Yaoshan thought.
"The man, just lost his house, and his money to gamble. And finally, he had to sleep up there." said the man earlier.
Liiu Yaoshan frowned, what a nonsense he thought. How could all the citizens here do gambling to be willing to be like this?
"Uncle, what's the Mayor doing, seeing people like this?" Liiu Yaoshan was curious about the actions of government officials with the state of the people.
"Stttt! don't be so hard, young man! The danger!" whispered the man while putting the tip of his index finger on his lips.
