"Junior Sister, what's wrong?"
When Lu Qing'an saw Sheng Ning stop, he immediately turned around to look at her.
Sheng Ning blinked and shook her head, saying, "Maybe I saw it wrong. Let's go."
That person always seemed to have no desires or wants on the mainland, so how could he possibly come to Paradise City?
The City of Bliss is divided into the main city and the outer city.
The outer city was the area that Sheng Ning and his group had just passed through.
You can enter the outer city by registering your name, but it's not so easy to enter the main city.
As Sheng Ning walked with Qi Wenyao to the city gate, she overheard the soldiers guarding the gate chatting and laughing at someone who had just passed by.
"Even Buddhist monks come to places like this to have fun. The world has really changed."
"Yes, yes, what that Buddhist monk was holding wasn't prayer beads, it was a relic, wasn't it? And that person didn't seem to be possessed by a demon. It's really strange."
Buddhist practice.
Holding a relic.
The image of Kong Wu's otherworldly face flashed into Sheng Ning's mind.
If that Buddhist cultivator is truly empty-headed, then the Taixu Sect and Dingtian Sect will probably send people to the Northern Domain Secret Realm when it opens.
Her eyes narrowed slightly as she tried to crane her neck to find that familiar figure in the crowd of the main city, when she heard the soldier's voice.
"It's past midnight, and the city gates will be closing soon. Six of you, let's meet early tomorrow morning."
I didn't expect Elysium to have access control.
Sheng Ning looked away from the soldiers, and then turned her gaze to Qi Wenyao beside her.
The latter's expression was also unpleasant. He was still holding the Qi family patriarch's token in his hand. "Excuse me, it's only past midnight. I'm sorry to trouble you, elder brother."
Qi Wenyao handed over a mustard seed bag.
The soldier's face lit up with greed upon seeing this.
Then a troubled look appeared on his face. "It's not that I don't want you to come in, it's just that the city lord has given an order."
"The Northern Secret Realm is about to open soon, and more and more cultivators are going there. The city lord is afraid of causing trouble, so he will not allow anyone to enter the city after midnight."
After all, in the Northern Region, there are not only human cultivators, but also demonic cultivators, monster cultivators, and evil cultivators, and ghost cultivators who have long since disappeared from the continent will occasionally appear.
"However, it's not impossible for you to get in," the soldier suggested, wanting the mustard seed bag in Qi Wenyao's hand.
Seeing the other person beckon with their finger, Qi Wenyao immediately turned to the side and put his ear to the other person's mouth.
"chicken?"
The soldier quickly made a shushing gesture. "It's a secret. The city lord said that the city gates will be closed at midnight every day, and will only be opened when the rooster crows three times."
"Otherwise, we'll have to wait until Chenshi (7-9 AM) to open the city gates."
These days, who still raises chickens?
Moreover, it's midnight now. It's cold in the northern region. Even if someone raises chickens, they're all hiding in the coop and don't dare to peek out. How could any chicken be working so early?
Qi Wenyao felt like he had been played.
The once-refined gentleman's face flushed red, his hands clenched into fists. "This is outrageous! Where are we supposed to find someone like this now...?"
To keep his promise, he didn't say the last word, "chicken."
The soldier shrugged and said helplessly, "That's what the city lord said back then: either wait until Chenshi (7-9 AM) or when the rooster crows three times."
"Otherwise, even if you were a great immortal, you wouldn't be able to get in."
Yu Ye and the others were still thinking of entering the main city to see what true paradise was like.
Now that they were stuck at the city gate, their enthusiasm was instantly dampened.
Just as they were about to find an inn to stay at for the night, Sheng Ning, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.
"Does it have to be one chicken clucking three times? Can't the three chickens each crow once?"
The soldiers had seen many people leave Elysium with regret because of its rules.
But this is the first time I've ever seen someone who tries to exploit loopholes in logic.
He paused for a moment, then said, "That works too?"
Sheng Ning then nodded.
She walked up to her fellow disciples and said, "Fellow disciples, please stay here and don't move. I'll be right back."
Sheng Ning finished speaking and left.
Su Daiyuan and the others were left standing there.
"Hiss—why do I feel that Junior Sister's back is so majestic?" Yu Ye frowned, stroking his chin with his fingers.
"It feels like I'm being pampered like a son." Lu Qingan's features scrunched up.
Even Qi Wenyao chimed in, "It's just like when I was a kid, my dad would go to buy me oranges and make me stand there and wait for him."
"hiss--"
The three of them gasped simultaneously.
I have to say, they really do look alike.
When Sheng Ning returned, she wasn't carrying anything with her.
Yu Ye wasn't angry when he saw that she had returned empty-handed. He just patted her shoulder to comfort her, "It's okay if you didn't find the chicken. As long as you know the way back, Junior Sister, that's fine."
After Sheng Ning left for a short while, Yu Ye and the others were extremely anxious, worried that she might not know the way and get lost.
Fortunately, she came back safely. Even though she didn't have any chickens or even a single feather, it's good that she's back.
Qi Wenyao had no objection to staying overnight in the outer city.
only......
"Who are these three young ladies behind Fellow Daoist Sheng...?"
Sheng Ning curled her lips into a smile, then raised her hands and clapped them.
Then, three scantily clad women behind her waved their handkerchiefs and called out sweetly to the soldiers at the door, "Sir, come and play at Yunlang Pavilion!"
Yunlang Pavilion is the largest brothel in the outer city.
Sheng Ning didn't go to the restaurant to buy chicken, but went to Yunlang Pavilion instead?
The appearance of the three courtesans not only stunned the soldiers at the city gate, but also left Su Daiyuan and his six companions dumbfounded.
It took them a long time to come to their senses.
After distributing the rewards to the three of them, Sheng Ning turned around and asked, "Big brother, how about this?"
This chicken is not that chicken.
Who would have thought that Sheng Ning would call over such a chicken!
The soldier's face contorted in pain. He raised his hands and waved them wildly in the air. After a long while, he finally said in despair, "Young friend, how did your brain end up?"
When normal people talk about chickens, they think of food, right?
Why does she only think of prostitutes in brothels?
After pondering for a moment, Sheng Ning said, "I don't have any other special characteristics, except that I'm very smart."
"Don't be obsessed with me, I'm just a legend."
The soldier coughed up blood.
After receiving the mustard seed bag from Qi Wenyao, the soldiers allowed people to enter the main city of Bliss City for the first time after midnight.
Unlike the bustling outer city, the main city is characterized by extravagance and debauchery.
Sheng Ning could even see people huddled together in a corner, kissing passionately.
The scene was so exciting that she wished she could bring over the censorship department of the novel websites from her past life and let them take a good look.
What truly defines a real shrew!
Unfortunately, she couldn't pull him over.
Before Qi Wenyao and his companions could fully recover from the "three rooster crows," they were greeted by a series of thrilling scenes.
The five disciples of the Invincible Sect, still not fully conscious, were so frightened by the scene before them that they hurriedly surrounded their only underage junior sister.
