Chapter 587 The Never-Sleeping Tower of the City That Never Sleeps



Suya is now furious.

If she hadn't been tricked into this godforsaken place, she wouldn't be able to go back now.

Otherwise, she would definitely make the old Taoist priest know why the flowers are so red, and what the consequences of messing with her would be.

After taking stock of the items in the space yesterday, Su Ya deduced that Old Dog Daoist must have prepared these things for a long time. It seems that he started scheming when he first wanted to take her as his disciple.

The space contained a hodgepodge of items, making it impossible to collect them all in a short time.

It would take at least half a year, and that half a year is precisely the time when Su Qingsheng got into trouble.

How could Su Ya not be angry?

So he didn't even want to talk to Tian Qingzi anymore.

If it weren't for the old Taoist's apprentice, I wouldn't have ended up in this godforsaken place.

Tian Qingzi inexplicably ran into a snag early in the morning, and still doesn't know why.

Once the water boiled, Su Ya took out millet from her spatial storage and threw it into the porridge.

After the porridge is ready.

It was ladled out, and water was added back into it.

I found another pair of chopsticks, broke them in half with a little force, and then put them into the earthenware jar and pressed them down.

Fortunately, the earthenware pot wasn't the kind that was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom like in ancient times, so the chopsticks fit perfectly in the middle.

Suya took out two more steamed buns.

Put the buns in the water, and after a while the water boiled and the buns were thoroughly heated.

Only then did he pick it up and eat it.

Tian Qingzi watched it from beginning to end, and the little girl ate all the food.

He didn't see the little girl ask him if he wanted to eat together.

Tian Qingzi: This is very strange.

"Little girl, is something wrong? Why don't you tell me? Maybe I can help you solve it."

Tian Qingzi asked with good intentions.

result.

It would have been better if he hadn't said anything.

One theory is that this directly stirred up a hornet's nest.

Although Su Ya was much shorter than Tian Qingzi, her aura was by no means weak.

Tian Qingzi seemed to glean two words from the little girl's eyes: "What about your face?"

Strange, why would I have such a thought?

Tian Qingzi racked his brains but couldn't figure out when he had offended the little girl.

It's a pity that even in death he couldn't understand Mingyue; this little girl hated his grand-disciple and him as well.

Although Tian Qingzi really liked the little girl's cooking skills.

But he wasn't the kind of person who was shameless.

You're not completely shameless.

I've decided to leave after all.

But this is a place where monsters often appear.

Finally, Tianqing gritted his teeth and took out a small earring from his pocket, handing it to Su Ya. Consider it compensation for the little girl.

"What's this?"

"This is a self-defense shield that I practiced. I see you're all alone, little girl. If you run into a bad guy, you're definitely no match for him. This shield can protect you."

"oh."

Suya only answered with one word.

"Little girl, this is a rare find, priceless."

"I don't want it, you can take it."

"Really don't want it?"

Tian Qingzi asked again.

Su Ya didn't want to talk to him anymore. Did this guy have something wrong with his ears? She had already said she didn't want it, yet he still asked her if it was true.

Tian Qingzi couldn't believe it either. This protective shield was a life-saving item and could be considered a magical artifact, although it wasn't a top-grade one. Countless people in the cultivation world wanted to seize this artifact.

Why else would he choose to live in this place overrun by monsters?

Isn't it just to avoid those people?

Now what's going on? He gave this little girl something that everyone else would fight tooth and nail for, and he's even afraid she'll dislike it.

Su Ya washed the dishes by the river. That old Taoist priest had actually prepared dishes, clothes, and hair washing facilities in his spatial storage.

Suya had a hunch that if she was only going to stay here for a month, was it really necessary to prepare so much stuff?

Is this old Taoist priest trying to scam her again?

Suya took the thatched hut away.

Then she returned the ring to the old man and left.

She said she was leaving this awful place today.

Tian Qingzi was a little worried, so she followed Su Ya at a distance.

He didn't know why either.

Maybe he just felt a connection with this little girl.

As it was getting dark, Suya finally emerged from the forest.

After walking for another hour, we saw a city gate.

The words "Never Sleeps City" are written on it.

What kind of weird place is this?

Suya entered the city smoothly; yesterday she even found some spirit coins in her spatial storage.

After yesterday's inventory, she can now instantly recall anything that's in the space.

(The spirit coins here are not spirit stones; they are a general form of currency for exchange.)

It was completely dark.

It's not safe for a little girl like her to be alone on the street.

So Suya found a clean-looking restaurant nearby – Never Sleeps.

The restaurant appears to be only two stories high from the outside.

In ancient times, restaurants had dining on the first floor and lodging on the second floor, which was actually the same as some modern hotels.

The room rates at this restaurant that never sleeps are all displayed on the wall.

You can simply tell the shopkeeper what kind of house you want.

A regular room costs 5 spirit coins.

Medium-sized room: 15 spirit coins.

Superior room: 20 spirit coins.

Room number 50 spirit coins.

The highest-level room costs 100 spirit coins.

Suya chose a superior room. She didn't know the prices here yet, so she couldn't choose a room that was too bad or too good. A room in the middle was just right.

After Su Ya paid 20 spirit coins, a waiter led her upstairs.

When Su Ya reached the third floor, she realized that the restaurant was also a space.

From the outside, it only looks like there are two floors, but Suya discovered that there are two more staircases above.

Those must be the rooms designated as "Heaven" and "Earth".

After the waiter led Su Ya to the room, he stayed at the door and didn't leave.

Su Ya realized that tipping was a common practice in ancient times.

So he tipped the waiter 1 spirit coin.

The waiter then left, saying that Su Ya only needed to ring the bell on the door if she needed anything. Su Ya had a feeling that she might have given him too much.

Su Yaqing checked the spirit coins on her body, but there were only 10,000.

Looking at the ten thousand spirit coins, something that I hadn't quite figured out but had some clue about suddenly became clear.

If I'm staying here for a month, I wouldn't need so many spirit coins.

There are about 100 of them who came in this time. We went to so much trouble to bring them in. If they don't get the cultivation manual, can they really go back after a month?

Suya immediately denied it.

What if it's not a month, but a year, two years, or ten years? Or what if everyone has to obtain the manual before they can go back?

Suya felt she was getting close to the truth.

If that's the case, then this amount of spirit coins is simply not enough.

Regardless of whether she can go back, she needs to earn money now and prepare for the worst.

I don't know if a doctor is needed here.

Suya was pondering how to make money when she suddenly heard a loud shout coming from outside the restaurant.

"Help! Someone help! Please, have mercy and save our young master!"
