Chapter 16: Blocking the Gate (2/2)



The guards surrounding the house were startled.

"The house can talk, it's amazing."

Through the entire transparent wall, you can see several people walking back and forth inside.

The leader of the guards pointed at the house and said, "Look, there are people inside. What kind of house is this?"

The chief of the guards went in person to report to His Majesty.

Arriving in front of the palace, the guard bowed and reported: "Your Majesty, we can't reach that house. There is something invisible blocking the way. The person inside just let in a person who can speak usefully."

Emperor Wu was a mounted emperor, and no mounted emperor was timid. It is said that someone inside rolled up his sleeves and said, "Let's go, I'll meet him in person."

"Crash!" The people around him knelt on the ground, shouting, "Your Majesty, this cannot be done!" It was the middle of the night and those annoying censors were not around. Emperor Wu impatiently walked around the people kneeling on the ground and strode towards the house.

When Tian Yi saw Emperor Wu leaving, he quickly got up from the ground and followed him.

Tang Qingxi opened the protective shield, and Emperor Wu walked in with Tian Bei.

As he walked into the house, the cold winter wind was instantly isolated and the room became as warm as spring. Looking up, he could see bright light shining from above. The bricks on the ground were neater and cleaner than those in the Qianyuan Hall. Looking further back, he saw shelves with things he had never seen before placed on the doors.

There were five people standing in front of the window, two men and three women. The person standing in the front was obviously the person in charge.

Emperor Wu stepped forward and asked, "I am Ji Tianyuan, the Emperor of Wei. Who are you? Human? Demon? Immortal?"

The man who entered was wearing a simple uniform embroidered with various dragons in gold thread. Only the emperor dared to wear such clothes in the palace. Okay, let's find the most important leader.

The other one had a white face and no beard, and seemed to be a eunuch.

Tang Qingxi took two steps forward and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I am Tang Qingxi, the owner of this supermarket. We specialize in business in various small worlds. I apologize for not choosing a good location when we landed."

Emperor Wu's pupils shrank upon hearing this. If a businessman had this kind of ability, what was the point of having various small worlds? He couldn't possibly be going through all this trouble just to make money.

Emperor Wu asked, "What are you taking? Human beings, souls, or something else?"

Tang Qingxi laughed out loud: "Your Majesty, don't be nervous. We are a serious business. We accept gold, silver, jewelry, precious clothing materials, exquisite handicrafts, calligraphy and paintings. As long as it is valuable, we will accept it. Your Majesty, let's sit down and talk."

Emperor Wu breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't something like gods or ghosts, he wasn't afraid.

Several people sat separately at the table in front of the window so that people outside could see their Majesty and not worry.

Ye Qingyi handed a cup of milk tea to each of the two people opposite. In the middle of winter, it was important to drink something hot.

Tian Min took the milk tea and was about to test it for poison, but was stopped by Emperor Wu's eyes. He picked up the cup and took a sip. The sweet taste warmed him from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.

Emperor Wu pondered for a long time and asked, "I wonder if this young lady could explain to me what a small world is."

Tang Qingxi smiled and replied, "Your Majesty, I wonder if there are any Buddhists here. Buddhism says that there are three thousand small worlds in this universe, and each three thousand small worlds make up a middle thousand world, and three thousand middle thousand worlds make up a great thousand world. The various worlds in this universe are as numerous as the stars. You and I are just one of them, so there's no need to delve into them. Your Majesty, would you like to see what we have for sale?"

Are there so many worlds in the world? Emperor Wu stood up with Tang Qingxi in a daze.
