"How can there be a city in the deep sea? Ah? I don't know either. My father never told me." Huo Xiaodao looked confused, obviously he had never heard of this.
Gu Qingxi looked up at the sky and saw a sun in the sky.
He understood that this place might be a secret place in its own space.
Although all secret places are self-contained, they basically have the alternation of the sun and the moon, and are also bound by the constraints of heaven and earth.
"Sister, we are from outside. May I ask where is this place? Or what is the name of the city you live in?" Gu Qingxi asked the woman who was washing clothes politely.
When the woman heard Gu Qingxi say that they were from outside, her face changed. There was no more pity in her eyes, but she said in a cold tone: "Stranger, are you a cultivator or a mortal?"
"Cultivator." Gu Qingxi replied.
The woman's face became even colder, and her tone was as cold as ice. She raised the washing stick and pointed to the distance: "Go to the government office and report yourself. There are people there who specially receive outsiders like you."
After saying this, the woman squatted down and continued to wash clothes, never looking at Gu Qingxi again.
Seeing this, Gu Qingxi stopped pestering her, but thanked her and took Huo Xiaodao to the direction the woman pointed.
After walking two steps, Gu Qingxi was ready to use her spiritual power to dry her clothes, but was shocked to find that her spiritual power could not be used. At this moment, she was no different from an ordinary person.
"Eh? What's going on? I seem to be unable to use my spiritual power. You too?" Huo Xiaodao's puzzled voice reached Gu Qingxi's ears.
"Yes." Gu Qingxi replied lightly.
Gu Qingxi frowned slightly.
This feeling was not the first time she had experienced it.
In that strange space in the space gap, they were also unable to use their spiritual power and became ordinary people.
That feeling was very unpleasant.
Huo Xiaodao quickly confirmed that he really couldn't use his spiritual power and turned into an ordinary crab.
He stared at Gu Qingxi with wide eyes, his eyes full of anxiety: "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're finished."
"Don't worry, I'm here, no one can bully you." Gu Qingxi reached out and touched Huo Xiaodao's head.
This broken kid has been spoiled since he was a child, and may have never encountered such a thing, so he no longer has the confidence and domineering before, only deep anxiety.
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 get the confidence to say this? She is now a mortal woman without cultivation, right? Big brother said that mortal women are very fragile, so he should think about how to protect Gu Qingxi.
Thinking of this, Huo Xiaodao's heart, which was a little uneasy just now, calmed down instantly, and then thought about how he should protect Gu Qingxi.
Gu Qingxi didn't know about Huo Xiaodao's troubles. She touched her wet hair and made a decision in her heart.
She didn't take Huo Xiaodao to the place responsible for receiving foreigners. Instead, she took Huo Xiaodao to an inn, booked a room, asked the waiter to bring hot water, gave the waiter a silver ingot, and asked him to help buy two sets of clothes for them to change. The rest of the silver was rewarded 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. She changed into dry new 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 bitter face.
Gu Qingxi didn't say anything, but squatted down to help Huo Xiaodao put on his clothes.
Huo Xiaodao's face flushed at this moment. He felt so useless at this moment. He clearly decided to protect Gu Qingxi, but he couldn't do such a small thing as putting on clothes.
Gu Qingxi noticed Huo Xiaodao's annoyance. She smiled, wiped Huo Xiaodao's hair with a dry towel, and whispered to comfort him: "Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. You have been well-fed since childhood, and someone has taken care of your food, clothing, housing and transportation. This is not your weakness, but something you are born with. Daodao also has many advantages. He will protect his friends at the first time. When we are protected by Daodao, we are very happy and touched."
Huo Xiaodao listened to Gu Qingxi's words, and the annoyance in his heart gradually dissipated. He smiled and said embarrassedly: "No, I'm not as good as you say."
Gu Qingxi looked at the arc of Huo Xiaodao's mouth, which was about to reach his ears, and couldn't help laughing.
Daodao is actually a very cute and innocent child.
"But, Qingxi, don't we have to report to the place that person said?" Huo Xiaodao asked doubtfully.
"This place is very strange. The monks who came in lost their spiritual power and became mortals. I always feel that it is not a good thing to report. Let's wait and see what happens." Gu Qingxi tied Huo Xiaodao's hair and whispered.
"Well, I'll listen to you. But Qingxi, you are so amazing. How did you take out the silver without spiritual power?" Huo Xiaodao asked in confusion.
"The few small bags hanging on my waist are not storage bags, but ordinary bags, which are filled with some necessities." Gu Qingxi explained, and suddenly Gu Qingxi thought of something, "Where is your companion beast Houhou?"
Huo Xiaodao sensed it, then frowned and said, "The sense with it is sometimes there and sometimes not. It seems very far away. I guess it was not sucked into this strange place."
"It's good that it didn't come in. It will definitely go to find my parents. Qingxi, don't worry. My parents will come to save us immediately after knowing the news." Huo Xiaodao added comfortingly.
Gu Qingxi was not so optimistic.
She knew that if this was really a separate space, it could only be broken from the inside. There was no way to split the space from the outside to find the entrance.
But she didn't say it to attack Huo Xiaodao.
If that was the case, she still had the confidence to leave here.
"We'll go ask around on the street later, but don't tell them we're strangers." Gu Qingxi reminded him.
Huo Xiaodao nodded.
When Gu Qingxi brought Huo Xiaodao downstairs, the waiter was wiping the table. When he saw Gu Qingxi, he smiled and said, "Miss, do you want hot water for dinner?"
"Yes, please bring dinner to our room." After Gu Qingxi finished speaking, she threw a small piece of silver to the waiter.
The waiter happily took it and agreed.
Gu Qingxi took Huo Xiaodao to the street. They seemed to be strolling around, but they were actually observing the place and paying attention to whether there was any news about Feng Xiatian and the others.
Gu Qingxi believed that Feng Xiatian and the others would not rashly report to any government office.
At this time, a burst of angry shouting came from the front of the street, mixed with someone begging for mercy.
Huo Xiaodao frowned after hearing this voice: "Qingxi, why do I feel that this voice is very familiar?"
"Let's go up and take a look." Gu Qingxi took Huo Xiaodao's hand and walked forward quickly.
