"How can there be a city in the deep sea? Huh? I don't know, my father never told me." Huo Xiaodao looked confused, obviously he had never heard of this matter.
Gu Qingxi looked up at the sky and saw a sun in the sky.
I have some understanding in my heart that this place may be its own space, a secret realm.
Although all secret realms are their own space, they are basically subject to the changes of the sun and the moon, and are also bound by the constraints of heaven and earth.
"Sister, we are from outside. Where is this place? Or what is the name of the city you live in?" Gu Qingxi asked the woman doing laundry politely.
When the woman heard that Gu Qingxi said that they were from outside, her face changed. There was no longer the pity in her eyes, but she said in a cold tone: "Foreigner, are you a monk or a mortal?"
"Monk." Gu Qingxi replied.
The woman's face became even colder, and her tone was as cold as ice. She raised the laundry stick and pointed to the distance: "Go to the Yamen and report it yourself. There are people there who are specially designed to receive foreigners like you."
After saying this, the woman knelt down and continued washing clothes, never looking at Gu Qingxi again.
When Gu Qingxi saw this, she no longer bothered her. Instead, she thanked her and went in the direction pointed by the woman with Huo Xiaodao in hand.
After taking two steps, Gu Qingxi prepared to use her spiritual power to dry her clothes, but was shocked to find that her spiritual power could not function. At this moment, she was no different from a mortal.
"Eh? What's going on? I seem to be unable to use my spiritual power. Are you the same?" Huo Xiaodao's confused voice reached Gu Qingxi's ears.
"Yes." Gu Qingxi replied lightly.
Gu Qingxi frowned slightly.
This was not the first time she had experienced this feeling.
When they were in the strange space in the gap between spaces, they were also unable to use their spiritual power and became mortals.
That feeling is very unpleasant.
Huo Xiaodao quickly confirmed that he was really unable to use his spiritual power and had turned into an ordinary crab.
He looked at Gu Qingxi with wide eyes, full of uneasiness: "Gu Qingxi, what's going on? This place is so weird, I seem to have become weaker, what should I do? If someone bullies us, we will be doomed.
"
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one can bully you." Gu Qingxi reached out and touched Huo Xiaodao's head.
This poor kid has been pampered since he was a child. He may have never encountered such a thing, so he no longer has the confidence and domination he had before, only feeling deeply uneasy.
After hearing Gu Qingxi's words, Huo Xiaodao still didn't feel relieved.
In this strange place, they have all lost their cultivation. Where does Gu Qingxi have the confidence to say this? She is now a mortal woman without cultivation, right? The eldest brother said that mortal women are very fragile, so he should
Thinking about how to protect Gu Qingxi.
Thinking of this, Huo Xiaodao's heart, which had been a little uneasy just now, instantly calmed down, and then he started thinking about how he should protect Gu Qingxi.
Gu Qingxi didn't know Huo Xiaodao's troubles. She touched her wet hair and made a decision in her heart.
She did not take Huo Xiaodao to the place responsible for receiving foreigners. Instead, she took Huo Xiaodao to an inn, booked a guest room, asked the waiter to bring hot water, gave the waiter a silver ingot, and asked him to
I helped buy two sets of clothes for them to change. The remaining money was given to the waiter.
The waiter happily bought clothes for them as quickly as possible.
After Gu Qingxi took a hot bath, she dried her hair and put on new, dry clothes.
Huo Xiaodao came out from behind another screen wrapped in clothes.
"I don't know how to wear this dress." Huo Xiaodao said to Gu Qingxi with a grimace.
Gu Qingxi didn't say anything, she just knelt down and helped Huo Xiaodao get dressed.
Huo Xiaodao's face turned red at this moment. He felt so useless at this moment. He had clearly decided to protect Gu Qingxi, but in the end he couldn't do a small thing like dressing well.
Gu Qingxi noticed Huo Xiaodao's annoyance. She smiled, wiped Huo Xiaodao's hair with a dry towel, and comforted in a low voice: "Everyone has their own advantages and disadvantages. You have been well clothed since childhood, and you have everything you need.
It's not your shortcoming that someone takes care of you, it's just something you are born with. Daodao also has many advantages. He will protect his friends immediately. When being protected by Daodao, we are all very happy and touched.
"
Huo Xiaodao listened to Gu Qingxi's words, and the annoyance in his heart gradually dissipated. He pursed his lips and smiled, and said sheepishly: "No, I'm actually not as good as you said."
Gu Qingxi saw the corners of Huo Xiaodao's mouth curling up to his ears, and couldn't help but laugh.
Daodao is actually a very cute and innocent child.
"But, Qing Xi, don't we need to go to the place where that person said to report?" Huo Xiaodao asked doubtfully.
"This place is very strange. The monks came in and lost their spiritual power and turned into mortals. I don't think it is a good thing to report it. Let's wait and see what happens." Gu Qingxi tied Huo Xiaodao's hair and whispered.
"Well, I'll listen to you. But Qing Xi, you are so powerful. How did you come up with money without spiritual power?" Huo Xiaodao asked doubtfully.
"The small bags hanging on my waist are not storage bags, they are just ordinary bags with some necessary items in them." Gu Qingxi explained, and suddenly she thought of something, "Your companion beast
Where’s Hoho?”
Huo Xiaodao sensed it, then frowned and said: "The sense with it is intermittent. It seems very far away. I guess it has not been sucked into this strange place."
"It doesn't matter if it didn't come in, it will definitely go to my parents. Qingxi, don't worry, my parents will come to save us immediately after they know the news." Huo Xiaodao added to comfort him.
Gu Qingxi was not so optimistic.
She knew that if this was really a separate space, it could only be broken open from the inside. There was no way to split the space and find the entrance from the outside.
But she didn't say anything to attack Huo Xiaodao.
If this is the case, then she still has the confidence to leave here.
"We will go to the street to inquire about it later, but don't say we are foreigners." Gu Qingxi warned.
Huo Xiaodao nodded.
After Gu Qingxi took Huo Xiaodao downstairs, the waiter was wiping the table. When he saw Gu Qingxi, he was all smiles: "Girl, do you need to prepare hot water tonight?"
"Yes, please bring us the evening meal to the room." After Gu Qingxi finished speaking, she threw a small piece of broken silver to the waiter.
The waiter happily took it and drank it all.
Gu Qingxi took Huo Xiaodao to the street. It seemed like he was wandering around, but in fact he was observing the place and paying attention to whether there was any news about Feng Xati and the others.
Gu Qingxi believed that Feng Xiatian and the others would not rush to any yamen to report.
At this time, there was a burst of angry shouting from the front of the street, mixed with someone's begging for mercy.
Huo Xiaodao frowned when he heard the voice: "Qing Xi, why do I feel that there is a voice that sounds familiar?"
"Let's go up and have a look." Gu Qingxi held Huo Xiaodao's hand and walked forward quickly.
