Portable Space: The Peasant Princess

Chapter 512 The magical ice road

He frowned and said excitedly: "I'm asking for 5,000 taels of money for Xia, how much do you want?"

Wen Shucheng raised the corners of his lips slightly and said, "It's not much, only ten thousand taels."

 Lin Yan: “Ten thousand taels.”

 Lu Qi said weakly: "I'll give you two thousand taels!"

She only wanted that much. Lu Yuan originally gave her five thousand taels, but she had already left half of it to the wet nurse, three thousand taels, and she didn't spend the remaining two thousand taels.

It's not that she is reluctant to spend money, but that with Lin Yan and the others, she has no chance to spend money at all.

Lin Yan frowned and said, "Is it possible that the fourth child and his younger siblings haven't arrived yet?"

Wen Shucheng worriedly said: "Isn't it possible? There are only a few days left before the rating competition begins. If they don't come, they won't even be able to stay in the lowest inn."

He frowned and said, "Maybe it will arrive soon. Let's go to other places first."

She was not worried that Gu Panxia would be late, because Gu Panxia had always been a principled person and would never be late.

Wen Shucheng pursed his lips and said, "That's it, let's go!"

　　――

Not far away from Phantom City, Gu Panxia looked up at Phantom City shrouded in white mist in the center of the lake, her red lips slightly raised.

At first glance, it has a hazy and ethereal feeling, like a fairyland.

Bai Luohan exclaimed: "It turns out what mother said is true, the Phantom City is really built by the river!"

Leng Xiao smiled softly, "Of course, will aunt still lie to you?"

Looking at the lake all around, Bai Luohan frowned: "How do we get in?"

Leng Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Wait a moment."

He also came to the last martial arts tournament and knew the rules here to some extent.

Sure enough, after a while, the gate of Phantom City suddenly opened, and the sparkling water at the courtyard gate instantly formed an icy road, spreading from the gate of Phantom City to the lake.

This admiration made Bai Luohan dumbfounded, and even Gu Panxia couldn't help but be surprised.

 “How to do this?” Gu Panxia whispered.

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, "This is one of the mysteries of Phantom City."

Bai Luohan said blankly: "It seems that this Phantom City is indeed not simple."

Leng Xiao gently rubbed her hair and said softly: "Let's go!"

The five people stepped on the ice and walked in. The most surprising thing was that as soon as they walked through, the originally frozen lake instantly turned into water.

Gu Panxia turned around, his eyes full of surprise.

Lu Yuan hugged her waist and teased: "Don't keep looking back, or you'll fall into the lake."

Gu Panxia glanced at him and said, "That's nonsense."

As soon as they entered the city gate, the ice road had completely disappeared and the gate closed automatically.

 There was a hazy blue smoke in front of me.

Lu Yuan warned: "Everyone, hold your breath and don't inhale the smoke into your lungs."

Hearing this, Bai Luohan quickly pinched his nose and his cheeks puffed up.

Gu Panxia chuckled, took out a pill and handed it to her: "Swallow this, it will cure all poisons."

After speaking, he swallowed one himself and handed the other three to the three of them.

Leng Xiao took the pill and said with some excitement: "What kind of pill is this? Can it really cure hundreds of poisons?"

 Gu Panxia nodded, "Of course, this is called Qiandan. To be precise, it can cure any poison."

 “Then...the terminally ill person, can he eat it?”

Gu Panxia laughed, "Of course, as long as you still have energy, you can definitely be cured."

This was specially made by her using hundreds of precious medicinal materials in the space, and added spiritual springs, so the effect is naturally extraordinary.

Although it cannot bring people back to life, as long as they still have energy, they can definitely bring people back from the gate of the underworld.

Leng Xiao clenched the pills in her hand and said in a hurry: "Miss Gu, do you still have pills like this?"

Afraid that Gu Panxia would not give it, he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I won't get it for free. Whatever you want, or in other words, how much money you want, I will give it to you, as long as you give me one more pill."

His mother had been bedridden for many years, and now she was only half alive. He couldn't bear to see her beautiful face turn into pale and feeble.

Over the years, he has searched for miracle doctors all over the world, but still failed to cure her disease. As a son, he felt deeply guilty.

Bai Luohan held his hand and frowned: "Leng Xiao!"

She understood his eager mood at the moment, but could Gu Panxia's pills really save the Queen?

Gu Panxia was curious, "I wonder what the prince wants the pill for?"

Although she has a lot of pills, each one is not simple. It can be said that every herb among them is more than a hundred years old, and each one is valuable.

If it is used to save people, she might consider giving it to him for free, but if she wants to keep it for herself for future use, then please forgive her for not being able to do anything about it.

　　Because she looked down on people who were afraid of death, and she did not bother to give the pills she had made herself to such people who were greedy for life and afraid of death.

Lu Yuan gently tugged on Gu Panxia's sleeve and shook his head at her.

Gu Panxia frowned. For the first time, she didn't quite understand what Lu Yuan wanted to express.

Lu Yuan leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words, and Gu Panxia nodded suddenly.

"I see!"

Gu Panxia took out a small porcelain vase and handed it to Leng Xiao.

“Here are twenty pills like this, all for you.”

 She is never stingy with filial and kind people.

 “Give it all to me?”

Leng Xiao looked at her in disbelief.

He even had some doubts as to whether her claim that it could cure hundreds of poisons was true.

 Otherwise, how could she give away twenty pieces of such a precious thing?

Seeing his thoughts, Gu Panxia smiled Youran.

“Don’t worry, I know the efficacy of the medicine I made myself.”

Leng Xiao's face turned slightly red as his thoughts were read through.

He stretched out his hand to take the small porcelain bottle and thanked him gracefully.

Gu Panxia smiled and said: "You are Luo Han's fiancé, so naturally you are also my friend Gu Panxia, ​​not to mention, you are also Lu Yuan's friend!"

 Lu Yuan’s friends are undoubtedly her friends.

 She believed in her own intuition, and even more so in Lu Yuan's vision.

Bai Luohan grinned and said, "Pan Xia, I knew you were the best to me!"

 Gu Panxia laughed when he heard this, "You are my friend, if I am not good to you, who should I be good to?"

 She will naturally not treat those she recognizes unfairly.

Bai Luohan rolled his eyes when he heard this, "Don't worry, Panxia. As long as you need it in the future, I will definitely not refuse anything I can do!"

She tilted her head and thought for a while, then said: "If I can't do it, there is Leng Xiao, he can definitely do it! If he can't do it either..."

 She made a face and said, "If he can't do it, then there's nothing I can do!"

Except for Lu Yuan, everyone present was amused by her expression and burst into laughter.

She had few friends in Qi Tian Kingdom. The ladies from aristocratic families often held flower viewing banquets, poetry recitation banquets, etc., and often sent her invitations. But she never liked doing those elegant things, so she didn't do it most of the time. go.

She has a cheerful temperament and speaks straightforwardly. She can't hold back her words and will say whatever she doesn't like.

Last year, at a banquet, a girl from an unknown family would always talk in a coquettish voice in front of her, talking about someone, this, that, which made her get goosebumps all over her body.

She couldn't bear it anymore, so she said, "Can you stay away from me?"

As soon as these words came out, the girl's eyes turned red for a moment, and then she started crying, as if she had been greatly wronged.

Of course, everyone present also thought she had bullied the girl.

Who makes her a "tomboy" who only knows how to wield a knife and a gun, while others are a delicate girl?

At that time, although those people did not criticize her in person because of her status, they secretly laughed at her for only using brute force.

From then on, when receiving invitations to banquets, she would either send someone to attend on her behalf, or have people send gifts, but she would never go there again.

Leng Xiao clenched the small porcelain vase in her hand and bowed: "I won't thank you enough! If Miss Gu needs me in the future, I will never refuse!"

Gu Panxia chuckled, "With the prince's words, the daughter of the people will feel that this bottle of pills is worth it."

 She has no shortage of life-saving things, and she also has the strength to protect herself and those around her, but who can have smooth sailing?

Even she can't guarantee that she will be able to live a smooth life, so it is still necessary to make friends with others occasionally.

The few people had just stepped through the layer of green smoke, and their eyes suddenly brightened.

There were people coming and going on the road, and almost half of them were people from the martial arts world with swords and knives.

The building in front of us does not look like the buildings of Dazhou or Qitian Kingdom, but resembles modern high-rise buildings.

Gu Panxia just felt that he was dazzled. Where did the high-rise buildings come from in ancient times?

Bai Luohan's eyes were as bright as stars, and excitement appeared on his face.

 “Wow! Look, Panxia, ​​this place is so beautiful!”

 Gu Panxia came back to his senses and looked at these buildings carefully. They were all blue bricks and red tiles, and they were very exquisite and beautiful.

 “It’s indeed beautiful!”

Looking at these buildings, she suddenly remembered the world in her previous life, and a sense of intimacy arose in her heart.

"What's the matter?"

Seeing that something was wrong with her expression, Lu Yuan was a little worried.

Gu Panxia shook his head gently: "I'm fine, I just think the buildings here are a little weird."

 Lu Yuan nodded, "It is indeed different from the outside."

 He was amazed every time he came in. It was no wonder he felt this way.

 After all, after walking out of that door, all memories will be cleared.

Gu Panxia smiled and said: "Let's go, let's meet the princess and the others first, and then go to the great elder."

Lu Yuan nodded, looked at Leng Xiao and Bai Luobing and said, "Are you going to go with us or go somewhere else?"

Just as Leng Xiao was about to speak, Bai Luohan stepped forward and hugged Gu Panxia's arm tightly and said, "You can do whatever you want. Anyway, I must go with Panxia."

 The corners of the mouths of the three men twitched at the same time. Why did their expressions seem like they were trying to separate them by force?

Leng Xiao covered her mouth and coughed lightly, "Ahem... let's go together then!"

 There is no other way, he must obey his fiancée's choice.

As for Bai Luobing, let alone that. His mission is to protect his sister. Wherever her sister is, he will be there.

 “In that case, let’s go together!”

 Gu Panxia suppressed her laughter, patted Bai Luohan's hand and said with a smile: "Everyone agrees, why don't you quickly let go of your hand?"

Bai Luohan sniffed, snorted softly, and then let go of his hand.

 “Xiao Xia, Xiao Xia!”

At this time, a voice came from not far away.

 Gu Panxia looked up and saw that Yanchou was waving to her constantly. There were also several familiar figures following her.

Gu Panxia chuckled and waved to her.

Bai Luohan frowned when he saw it, and his eyes suddenly rounded.

“Let me go, why is that guy here?”

Gu Panxia pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Of course I am just like you, coming to watch the martial arts conference!"

She has long heard about the disagreement between the two. When they were in Dazhou, the two of them had a big fight, and she could still remember the incident where she was forced to face the wall and think about her fault.

Bai Luohan curled his lips, "If I had known that guy was here, I would have waited until next year to come again!"

It's not that she hates him so much, she's just unhappy that he whipped her when he saw her.

 “Why is she here too?”

As soon as he arrived, he saw Bai Luohan beside Gu Panxia, ​​and his eyebrows instantly stood up.

Bai Luohan made a face at her.

She was furious and about to raise the whip again. Wen Shucheng hurriedly held her hand.

 “Princess, calm down!”

Fengchun struggled to free himself a few times, and then he retracted the whip in a compromising manner.

Bai Luohan snorted, "Princess Fengchun's habit of wanting to whip people whenever they meet seems to have not changed."

He also snorted coldly, "I just can't stand you!"

 She was always compared with Bai Luohan by her father. When she saw Bai Luohan, she felt unhappy and wanted to whip her.

 Gu Panxia smiled and suggested: "Okay, we are all friends, how about we find a place to sit down today, drink a cup of hot wine, and laugh away our grudges?"

Unexpectedly, the two of them said in unison: "Who is her friend?"

Gu Panxia pretended to have a serious face and said, "If you do this again, will I get angry?"

 When the two of them heard this, they immediately became anxious.

 At the same time, he said: “That’s all I agree with!”

 Gu Panxia clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Look, there is such a tacit understanding, and they still say they are not friends!"

“Let’s go for a walk. After a day’s journey, I’m also hungry.”

She put her hands on their shoulders respectively, and said to Lu Qi: "Xiao Qi, let's go."

Lu Qi nodded with a smile and walked behind them.

 Only a few grown men were left looking at each other.

 “I’ve met the prince!”

Lin Yan and Wen Shucheng bowed to Leng Xiao and saluted.

Leng Xiao smiled and said, “You two don’t need to be polite!”

Wen Shucheng patted Lu Yuan on the shoulder and said dissatisfiedly: "Fourth brother, why didn't I know you were here? If we hadn't walked here in time, wouldn't we have seen you very late?"

Lu Yuan looked around, raised his eyebrows and said, "Where is Ji Yueren?"

Wen Shucheng cheered and said, "Forget it, that kid has disappeared since he entered Phantom City. He didn't say anything about where he went. We searched for several days but didn't see anyone. Only later did we see his letter." , he said he had something to do and left Phantom City first, and said he would be back on the day of the competition, so we shouldn’t worry.”

Lu Yuan nodded, "Let's go."

Lin Yan asked at the right time: "Fourth brother, why did you arrive so late?"

Lu Yuan replied as he walked: "Something happened on the road and we were delayed for a few days."

"I heard that someone encountered Yama's people on the way here. Is this news true?"

Lu Yuan nodded, "It's indeed true. I was there at that time."

 Lin Yan was shocked, "Then... nothing happened to you and your siblings?"

Wen Shucheng thought deeply: "I heard that Yan Mo's people were killed by a little girl. Could that person be..." A younger brother or sister?

Lu Yuan chuckled, "As you think."

 The two of them were stunned on the spot when they heard this.

Just listen to Lin Yan mutter: "Mother, I should have known that I would bet 20,000 taels!"
