Looking at the cute look of the slightly plump girl, Gu Qingxi wanted to laugh. This chubby girl was so cute.
"This is for you." Gu Qingxi had no intention of eating the girl's amber peanuts for nothing, so she took out a bag of food and handed it to the slightly plump girl. This was stored in a storage bracelet after the end of the world. Afraid that she would not be able to open the package, Gu Qingxi helped her tear it open before handing it to the slightly plump girl.
The slightly plump girl took Gu Qingxi's things and exclaimed: "Is this an amber walnut? But I have never seen this packaging, and the painting on it is really like it."
"Yes, there is a layer of caramel on it, it's delicious." Gu Qingxi said with a smile.
"Do you like sweets too?" The slightly plump girl picked up a piece of amber walnut and put it in her mouth, then squinted her eyes, delicious!
"No." Gu Qingxi denied, and after the slightly plump girl was stunned and hadn't reacted yet, she said, "I don't just like sweets, I like everything delicious."
"Wow! What a coincidence, me too, we get along so well." The slightly plump girl seemed very happy to meet a foodie like herself, "My name is Xu Baozhu, what about you?"
"Gu Qingxi. I have some dried meat here, do you want some?" Gu Qingxi looked at Xu Baozhu's chubby cheeks and wanted to pinch them to make sure if the feel was as good as she imagined.
"Yes, yes, yes, I have preserved fruits here." Xu Baozhu took out a bag of things and handed it to Gu Qingxi like offering a treasure. After taking Gu Qingxi's dried meat and eating a piece immediately, she squinted her eyes happily, "It's delicious, I have osmanthus cake here, for you. There are also fried chestnuts, ah, and spiced melon seeds..."
Xu Baozhu took out small snacks from the storage bag on her waist and gave them to Gu Qingxi continuously. It reminded Gu Qingxi of the little hamster her cousin raised before the end of the world, which also hid a lot of things.
"Thank you." Gu Qingxi took all of Xu Baozhu's things with a smile. Xu Baozhu looked at Gu Qingxi eagerly without saying a word. Gu Qingxi almost laughed out loud, and then she also started to take out food from her storage bracelet.
Xu Baozhu stared at Gu Qingxi with wide eyes, watching Gu Qingxi take things without blinking.
"This girl simply thinks your things are more delicious, and wants to exchange her things with you." The Wanling Patriarch said in a very contemptuous tone in Gu Qingxi's mind, "Qingxi, you didn't see how painful it was when she reacted to you grabbing a handful of peanuts just now, tut tut."
Gu Qingxi ignored the Wanling Patriarch and continued to take out food from the storage bracelet for Xu Baozhu. Xu Baozhu happily took it and thanked her repeatedly. She just saw Gu Qingxi tear open the package, and she also knew how to open it. Then she opened a bag and put the others away like treasures.
"You are already a cultivator, but you still care so much about food and drink. You won't be able to go far on the road of cultivation." At this moment, a mocking voice suddenly sounded, full of contempt.
"It's none of her business." Gu Qingxi didn't even look at the person who was speaking, but sneered and said to Xu Baozhu.
Xu Baozhu's mood was ruined, but she became happy again after hearing what Gu Qingxi said. She glanced at the person who was speaking, and immediately retracted her gaze, whispering to Gu Qingxi: "That's right, it's none of her business."
"Humph! You——" The person who spoke was a girl of the same age as them. Judging from her clothes, her family background would not be bad. She also had a sword on her back. There were exquisite patterns on the scabbard, and it was obvious that it was expensive. The girl was so angry that her face turned red when she heard what Gu Qingxi and Xu Baozhu said.
Xu Baozhu was happy to see that the girl was angry, and then she ate with Gu Qingxi again.
After everyone had their spiritual roots tested, a disciple took them to the mountain gate.
Gu Qingxi roughly counted and found that there were more than a hundred people left. That is to say, at least half of the people who were queuing at the door to test their spiritual roots could not practice cultivation.
"The first level of the test is very simple. As long as you enter from here and come out safely from the exit three days later, you can do it. The exit is inside, find it yourself." The leading disciple took everyone to the mountainside, walked into a small path, and pointed to a big door at the end of the path.
Some people wanted to ask what the test was about, but no one answered. Instead, they urged them to go in quickly. If they didn't go in, they would be disqualified from the test.
When everyone heard this, they stopped talking and quickly squeezed towards the door. Going in early also seized the opportunity.
"Qingxi, let's go together." Xu Baozhu had already regarded Gu Qingxi as a close friend, turned around and looked at her and said .
"Okay." Gu Qingxi nodded.
However, after Gu Qingxi entered that door, Xu Baozhu was no longer around her. To be precise, there was no disciple around her who was taking the test together. The scene in front of her had changed.
What caught her eyes was the magnificent and beautiful hall. Below the hall stood civil and military officials, all bowing their heads respectfully. She was sitting on the dragon throne, wearing a luxurious and exquisite dragon robe, and became an emperor. A eunuch next to her was shouting in a shrill voice: "If you have something to say ,
please stand up and report it. If you don't, please leave the court." Soon, a minister came out and said, "I have something to say."
Gu Qingxi remained calm and waited for the minister's next words.
She was sure that everything in front of her was an illusion. But why was it such an illusion? What exactly is the assessment of Tianqing Sect?
The ministers below began to speak. Gu Qingxi thought there would be something, but the minister began to flatter. The meaning was that the world was peaceful and the country was prosperous because she, the emperor, had the courage and the right to rule the country.
Gu Qingxi listened to this flattery expressionlessly and said nothing.
After this minister finished speaking, he stepped back, and the next minister continued to speak, but he also flattered after he came out. After that, the next minister came out and continued to flatter, just like a relay race. Moreover, the content of the flattery was basically the same, all saying that the current peace and prosperity of the country was all due to the current queen Gu Qingxi.
What's wrong with the assessment of Tianqing Sect? Gu Qingxi frowned.
Hundreds of ministers came out one after another to flatter, endlessly. The content of the flattery was still the same, without any tricks. Gu Qingxi's ears were about to get calloused and she was almost drowsy.
The ministers were not sensible, but flattered even more. Each one used more gorgeous and exaggerated words than the other, and rushed to make a report.
Are the ministers of this country so idle? Don't they have to do this? Go to court every day to flatter? Gu Qingxi's mind was full of question marks. What kind of weird setting is this?
"Withdraw from the court." Gu Qingxi stopped this large-scale flattery meeting, stood up, turned around and walked to the back of the hall, thinking about how to break this illusion.
As soon as Gu Qingxi left, the eunuch hurriedly followed behind her.
"Girl, I can't believe that your ideal is to be an empress." The voice of the Wanling Patriarch sounded in Gu Qingxi's mind.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Gu Qingxi frowned. What the hell is this? Her ideal is not to be an empress at all.
