Quick-travel system: The host is having a blast in the small world
Chapter 298: The Netherworld 1
"Girl, wake up! Girl..."
A slightly hoarse but gentle voice softly called out to the person sleeping on the bed. The person on the bed was Lin Dai. She seemed to be tightly entangled in a nightmare and was unaware of any sounds from the outside world.
"Mother-in-law, why hasn't this sister woken up yet?"
A little boy with a childish face, about 5.6 or years old, was lying on the edge of the bed, looking at Gusu Po beside him with a pair of curious eyes.
Grandma Gusu gently stroked her grandson's head, her eyes full of love. Then, she turned her gaze to the woman on the bed who was still struggling in the nightmare, sighed softly, and said, "Alas, I'm afraid she can only rely on herself to wake up from the dream."
At this moment, Lin Dai's dream scene:
A slightly older boy was holding a little girl's hand tightly, running hard in the snow, hiding everywhere. Not far away, a group of people wearing strange clothes and with their faces covered were searching for them.
Suddenly, the little girl slipped and fell forward onto the cold snow. The little boy stopped and leaned over anxiously to ask, "Xiao Kui, how are you? Are you hurt anywhere?"
The little girl quickly stood up and shook her head, with a strong look in her eyes. She patted the snow off her body with her little hands and comforted her brother: "I'm fine, brother, let's go quickly, otherwise they will find us."
The little boy looked at the long trail of footprints left by the two of them in the snow behind him, and then looked at his sister, his eyes full of worry and reluctance. He took a deep breath, made up his mind, and said to his sister solemnly: "Xiao Kui, listen to my brother, because of our special identities, we must act separately now. As long as one of us escapes, they can't do anything to us. But if we run together, once we are caught, the consequences will be disastrous. Do you understand?"
"Okay, Xiaokui will listen to my brother." Xiaokui nodded firmly.
Then, the boy waved his fingers gently, releasing a gentle spiritual power, and the little girl's body gradually changed, eventually turning into a strange and beautiful flower.
The boy held the flower carefully and came to a narrow hole. The small hole was just big enough to accommodate the flower, as if it was tailor-made for her.
The boy carefully put the flower in, stroked it gently, and whispered: "Xiaokui, you hide here obediently, I will lead those bad guys away, and I will come back to find you when it is safe."
"Well, brother, you must be careful." Xiao Kui said worriedly.
The boy quickly hid the entrance of the cave, then found a branch and used his spiritual power to create an illusion on it. The branch immediately turned into the appearance of Xiaokui, and then the boy pulled it and ran away quickly.
A long time passed, Xiaokui waited in the cave for a long time, but still did not wait for her brother to come back to find her. After an unknown amount of time, she could not help but transform into a human form and came out, and began to look for her brother everywhere, but she could not find him...
Lin Dai kept mumbling in her sleep: "Brother..."
Hearing the slight movement coming from the bed, Gusu Po hurried over, patted the person on the bed gently, and called out again: "Girl, wake up! Girl..."
Finally, Lin Dai slowly opened her eyes and looked at the roof with a dull look, as if she had not yet woken up from her dream.
"Girl?" Gusupo called softly again, trying to bring her back to consciousness.
Lin Dai then slowly turned her head, her eyes gradually became clear, and then she slowly sat up and asked in confusion: "Are you calling me?"
Gusupo smiled and nodded: "Yes, you have been in a coma for two days, and you have nightmares from time to time. Now you finally wake up.
Hearing this, Lin Dai tried to recall the scene in her dream, but she couldn't remember anything.
She raised her eyes and looked around, observing the surrounding environment and the attire of the old man in front of her. It was obvious that this was ancient times, but... the various objects in the room looked extremely strange, and she couldn't see them clearly!
Lin Dai blinked her eyes hard, but things in the distance were still blurry. But things around her were clear. She wondered: Could it be that this body is also nearsighted?
As she was looking around, she suddenly saw something on the bedside. Lin Dai quickly reached out and picked it up. When she looked closely, it turned out to be a pair of glasses! And it looked like her own glasses.
Lin Dai quickly put it on, and the world in front of her instantly became clear. At this moment, she was shocked to realize that the clothes she was wearing were incompatible with the person in front of her, and it turned out to be her outfit in the real world.
She hurriedly tried to get out of bed, but saw a pair of small white shoes beside the bed. Without thinking, she put on her shoes and walked quickly to the door of the house. She suddenly opened the door and was stunned by the scene outside.
This place seemed to be a poor and backward ancient village, but in fact, it revealed a strange atmosphere. The design of the house was weird and unique, and the dress of the villagers not far away was also different, which I had never seen before. The most important thing was that all kinds of things outside were strange and weird.
Lin Dai quickly closed her eyes and tried to find other memories in her mind, but there was nothing else except her original memories. She tried to call the system again, but got no response, and could not sense the existence of space, nor did she have any cultivation.
In other words, the current self is just the ordinary self in the real world, which makes Lin Dai even more flustered.
Lin Dai turned around abruptly, looked at Gusu Po nervously, and asked anxiously: "Old man, may I ask where is this place? Why am I here?"
Gusu Po walked up slowly and did not answer her immediately, but closed the door gently. Then, she answered: "This is Wuyoutun, a place isolated from the world. As for how you appeared here, I don't know. My little grandson found you lying at the door of my house, so I brought you in. I don't think you look like someone from here, so be careful and don't let others know you exist."
Lin Dai muttered softly: "Wuyoutun? This name is so strange."
She continued to ask: "Old man, which country do you belong to, and which dynasty is it now?"
Gusu Po's expression became stern, and there was a bit more vigilance in her eyes as she looked at her.
Seeing this, Lin Dai quickly waved her hands and explained: "Old man, don't be nervous or worried. I have no ill intentions. I just want to figure out where I am and why I am here."
After hearing this, Gusu Po's expression gradually eased, and she nodded slightly, saying, "That's right. I see that you have a kind face, and there is no spiritual power fluctuation in your body. I guess you are not a bad person."
Hearing the word "spiritual power", Lin Dai's heart moved, and she immediately asked: "Spiritual power?! Old man, are you saying that everyone here can cultivate spiritual power? Could it be that this is a world of immortal cultivation!"
Gusu Po did not speak, but slowly walked to a tea table, picked up a small wooden barrel, poured some green liquid into the wooden bowl, and handed it to Lin Dai: "You have just woken up after sleeping for so long, and you have not eaten, so your body must be weak. Drink this."
Lin Dai looked at the bowl of unknown liquid and couldn't help shrinking her neck. She waved her hands repeatedly to refuse, her face full of disgust and curiosity: "Old man, what is this? It looks so weird. Can I drink it?"
Gusu Po smiled kindly and explained, "This is Jade Vine Dew, a drink that is unique to our place. It is carefully made from fresh Jade Vine leaf juice and morning dew. Although the color looks rather special, it tastes sweet and delicious. It can not only refresh the mind, but also nourish the body if you drink it for a long time. You should try it!"
Lin Dai took the wooden bowl half-believingly, looked at the kind face and encouraging eyes of the old man in front of her, and took a sip. Unexpectedly, after the green liquid entered her mouth, she immediately felt a fragrance, and when it flowed into her body, she felt a warm current spreading through her limbs.
Lin Dai's eyes lit up instantly and she drank the green vine dew in the bowl in one breath.
"Old man, this green vine dew is really delicious!" She praised it highly, and then asked with concern, "But it must be very hard to collect the dew."
Gusu Po took the bowl from her and explained, "No, it's easy to collect dew. Wherever the green vine leaves grow, we just need to put some collection containers under the leaves. Every morning the dew will naturally fall into the containers. We can replace the containers with new ones every few days and continue collecting."
"Ah? Won't it be stolen?" Lin Dai blurted out in surprise.
"Steal?" Gusu Po was slightly startled when she heard it, then frowned and slowly sat down on the stool, "No one here would do such a thing."
Seeing this, Lin Dai also hurriedly sat down with the old man and said apologetically: "Old man, I'm so sorry, I don't understand the situation here, and I said something without thinking. Please don't be angry with me, and please tell me the situation here."
"Gusupo!"
"what?"
Gusupo introduced, "Everyone calls me Gusupo, so don't call me 'old lady' or 'old lady'. You can call me Gusupo or Grandma like they do."
Lin Dai immediately smiled and nodded: "Okay, grandma, my name is Lin Dai."
"Yes." Gusu Po responded softly, and then asked cautiously, "What is your identity and where are you from?"
Lin Dai looked embarrassed and said apologetically, "Grandma, to tell you the truth, I don't know why I suddenly appeared here. I have no idea about my situation now, let alone how to explain my origins to you. But please believe me, I am really an ordinary person and I have no ill will towards you."
Gusu Po was silent for a while, then sighed and said slowly: "Our Wuyou Village is an ordinary small village in the polar region of the Nether Realm. The polar region of the Nether Realm is a very mysterious, remote place isolated from the outside world. Our people have lived here for generations, and few people from the outside world can come here." Having said that, she looked at Lin Dai seriously, "Once we find an outsider breaking in, we must report it to the Lord of Youlan City in time. If this person is a bad guy, someone will deal with him; if it is an unintentional intruder, someone will arrange to erase his memory and send him out of the polar region. This is the clan rule that our people must strictly abide by, and it is also to ensure that we can live here peacefully and for a long time."
After listening to Gusu Po's description, Lin Dai's face showed shock and curiosity. The polar region sounds like a very mysterious place.
She couldn't help wondering: Why did the system send her to this world, but it disappeared? The system said that she could rely on herself completely, but now it was gone, not only the system, but also the space and cultivation were gone. Why? What did it want to do?
Lin Dai came back to her senses and asked, "Grandma, you mentioned spiritual power before. Can everyone here cultivate it?"
"Practice?" Gusupo sighed and shook her head. "Not really. Not everyone here has spiritual power. Anyone who has spiritual power to practice will be summoned to Youlan City to protect Youlan City."
After listening, Lin Dai had a general understanding of this place and guessed that this Youlan City was most likely the main city of this Youjing polar region.
