Quick-travel system: The host is having a blast in the small world

Today, Lin Dai plans to leave Wuyoutun.

Because she didn't know the way and there were many dangerous places in the polar region, Gusu Po found a peddler who traveled in the polar region and gave him a ride all the way to Youlan City.

The peddler in the Nether Realm is not an ordinary person, but a 70-year-old man who looks young. The person who is qualified for this position needs to be approved by the city lord. He will take a full car of goods from Youlan City, go out of the city and sell the goods in various villages, and then return.

After hearing about this person, Lin Dai was extremely surprised. He was just an ordinary small vendor, so why did he need the city lord's consent? And wasn't he too old?

Gusu Po revealed to Lin Dai that the Nether Realm Poles hid many secrets that they had never known. It had been two thousand years since their ancestors began to live here, but the Nether Realm Poles existed for much longer than two thousand years.

In order to maintain the harmony and longevity of this land, the Lord of Youlan City has formulated strict rules and regulations, requiring everyone to strictly abide by them, unite as one, and jointly create a beautiful living environment.

What surprised Lin Dai even more was that the life span of ordinary humans here was also very long. Gusu Po was only over 150 years old now, and she was still in very good health.

The peddler uncle was a unique sight on this land. Every once in a while, he would ride on a four-legged beast pulling goods from Youlan City, shuttling between villages and bringing the villagers things that were unique to Youlan City.

This made Lin Dai even more curious about the Youlan City.

Lin Dai sat in the cart of the peddler Uncle Su, admiring the various scenery along the way, her heart filled with novelty and joy.

As they got closer and closer to Youlan City, heavy snow began to fall from the sky when they arrived at the last village. What puzzled Lin Dai was that the people here did not seem to be afraid of the cold, but simply added some clothes. What surprised her even more was that she did not feel the slightest bit of cold.

Lin Dai was full of doubts and wanted to ask Uncle Su the reason, but she was worried that her identity would be exposed and arouse suspicion. After all, as a person from the polar region, she should have some understanding of the climate here.

After half a month's journey, they were finally about to arrive at Youlan City. At this time, Lin Dai had to say goodbye to Uncle Su. In order to enter Youlan City smoothly, she had to change her identity and pretend to be a villager of Wuyou Village, so she could not travel with Uncle Su.

Lin Dai stood near the gate of Youlan City, carefully observing the people coming and going. She was surprised to find that the gate of Youlan City was so inconspicuous, just the size of a door, and there was no guard in sight.

There is only a white stone platform on one side of the city gate. People entering the city only need to place their jade token on it. If a white light is emitted, they can enter the city unimpeded.

At this moment, Lin Dai instantly understood that this was the verification station for entering the city that Gusu Po mentioned.

She took out the jade token that Gusu Po had given her, looked at it, and then held it tightly, took a deep breath, and cheered herself up secretly. When there was no one at the city gate, she walked forward carefully, gently placed the jade token on the verification table, and prayed silently in her heart, hoping that everything would go well, without any problems, and without being discovered to be abnormal.

Then, a dazzling white light suddenly lit up, and Lin Dai couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "It's done!"

She quickly took back the jade token and took advantage of the fact that there was no one at the door to quickly walk through the door.

Since Lin Dai was the last one to be verified, no one noticed that the verification light she triggered was much brighter than that of others.

After crossing the threshold, Lin Dai seemed to have traveled through time and space. The scene before her left her dumbfounded, as if she had stepped into another completely different world.

She had originally thought that once she entered the city gate, she would see an ancient street lined with shops and bustling with activity. However, what unfolded before her eyes was a dreamlike wonderland.

Lin Dai looked at the two naturally formed bluestone paths in front of her and stepped onto one of them carefully. Every step she took felt like she was stepping on clouds, light and wonderful. On both sides of the path were blooming exotic flowers and plants, colorful and in various shapes. Some were as hot as flames, some were as pure as ice and snow, and some emitted a faint fluorescence that illuminated the path at night.

A breeze blew by, and Lin Dai felt a feeling of comfort and pleasure permeating her whole body. The wind was mixed with the natural scents of various flowers and plants, making people feel relaxed and happy, as if all their worries were blown away by the wind.

Lin Dai took a deep breath of fresh air, looked up at the blue sky, and suddenly woke up and looked back at the city gate. It was already ice and snow outside, but inside the city gate it was still spring-like all year round. It was two worlds in one city gate.

What on earth was going on? Lin Dai was filled with doubts and curiosity.

Lin Dai observed the surroundings carefully and finally discovered the reason: it turned out that the city gate was not an ordinary city gate, but an entrance to a barrier.

Youlan City is wrapped in a powerful barrier, which prevents the wind and snow outside from invading, thus maintaining the beautiful scenery of spring all year round in the city.

At this time, Lin Dai became more and more certain that the reason she came here must be closely related to Youlan City.

She walked along the winding path, stopping and starting at will, enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way. She didn't know where the road led to, but she just went wherever she wanted.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Lin Dai began to see the outlines of people and buildings, and she joyfully quickened her pace.

When she got closer, she couldn't help but exclaim at the sight: "The gap between the rich and the poor is too great!"

Lin Dai recalled what Gusu Po had once said about the situation in the polar regions of the Netherworld. She had thought that the levels of development in various places were roughly the same, and even the main city of Youlan City would only be slightly more prosperous than the villages in other places.

But the scene before her completely overturned her imagination. The gap was simply too big.

Other details are unclear, but the materials used in the various buildings visible to the naked eye are extraordinary, and seem to be made of natural marble and crystal. Compared with the buildings here, the village outside is like a slum. Whether it is the villagers' clothing or housing conditions, they are completely different from here.

This strong contrast made Lin Dai doubt whether the polar region of the underworld was really as Gusupo described.

In fact, what Lin Dai didn't know was that the reason for such a significant difference was not the intention of the city lord, but due to the unique geographical location of Youlan City, behind which was hidden a mysterious secret realm. Youlan City gathered all those who had spiritual power to practice, and its real purpose was to protect that secret realm.

This secret realm is of vital importance to the Netherworld Polar Region. It can be said that if the secret realm disappears, the Netherworld Polar Region will no longer exist.

Therefore, regarding everything about Youlan City, people entering and leaving the city were strictly prohibited from discussing it casually, and outsiders were also prohibited from asking about it casually.

Lin Dai didn't know that Gusu Po was taking a huge risk by giving her her jade token.

Fortunately, Lin Dai had promised before she left that she would never bring trouble to Gusu Po. If she could not find the answer she wanted in Youlan City, she would take the initiative to meet the city lord and beg him to help her leave the Youjing Pole.

Lin Dai walked towards the bustling streets in the city, her eyes full of curiosity. The goods displayed in the shops here were obviously much richer and more exquisite than those outside. There were also many cultivation herbs that were rarely seen or even used outside.

Looking back, she once went with Gusu Po to pick herbs, and then sold them to Uncle Su, who then sold them to shops in the city, and then someone in the shop was responsible for making the medicine.

Lin Dai looked at the dazzling array of goods and the bustling crowd and couldn't help but fall into distress. How should she find a place to stay?

She was walking and looking around, not noticing a little girl running in front of her and accidentally bumping into her. Then, a little boy chased after her, shouting, "Little Kui, run slower."

When passing by Lin Dai, the boy accidentally bumped into her. Lin Dai looked back at the two little figures, frowned, and said, "Whose children are these? They are so rude and don't even say sorry when they bump into someone."

Then he turned around and was suddenly startled to see an old man with white hair and beard, holding a cane, looking at him warily.

Lin Dai guessed that he was the grandfather of the two children. She was caught talking behind his back and felt very embarrassed. She forced a smile and hurriedly left the scene.

The old man looked at her slightly nervous back with complicated eyes, doubts welling up in his heart. Then he turned back to look at the two children who were running farther and farther away, and had to quickly catch up with them.

After walking for a while, Lin Dai looked back and found nothing unusual. She breathed a long sigh of relief and guessed secretly: The old man just now must be no simple person. He has an immortal look and must be a master of cultivation. If he finds out that something is wrong with her, she will be finished.

Just as Lin Dai was about to continue looking for a place to stay for the night, a sudden flash of inspiration came to her mind. She seemed to have missed a crucial clue. What was it?

Lin Dai frowned tightly, carefully recalling what had just happened. The scene was restored, and suddenly she realized that she seemed to have heard that name somewhere, it was very familiar!

After finally getting some clues, Lin Dai hurried back and tried to find the two children, but unfortunately they were already gone.

Lin Dai asked the vendor on the roadside: "Brother, a little girl and a little boy just ran past here. Did you see where they ran to?"

The vendor was a middle-aged man who looked very friendly. He looked at the girl in front of him and replied, "I'm sorry, girl, I didn't see any children passing by."

Lin Dai then asked: "How could we not see them? They were running around laughing on the road, and there was an old man with white hair and beard following behind them?"

The middle-aged man said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, young lady, I haven't seen the old man you mentioned."

Lin Dai thought he didn't notice it, so she asked a few other people, but strangely, no one said they saw it.

This made her wonder if she was dazzled, but the two children did touch her firmly, and the old man's eyes looked at her strangely!

What's the matter?
