Her perception is now different from what it used to be, so even standing here, she can clearly see the situation in the city below.
The city is decorated with lights and colorful lights everywhere, like a city that never sleeps.
Logically speaking, this place should be very lively.
But at first glance, it was extremely quiet.
There were so many people in the daytime, but now it looked like a dead city, which was really weird.
Probably aware of Gu Jiuqing's thoughts, Xiyin said quietly: "No need to be surprised, this is the unique curfew of Puppet City. Once night falls, a large amount of poisonous gas will be released from the mountains and permeate the entire city. By then, everyone will All living creatures will fall into coma. What's more, they will suffocate and die!"
This news really surprised Gu Jiuqing.
They passed through the mountains and forests when they came, but they didn't find anything unusual.
If there were poison in the mountains, her space would have set off an alarm for her.
Unexpectedly, there is such a mystery hidden in it!
While in a trance, I heard Xiyin say: "This is a kind of protection mechanism for our puppet city. In this way, outsiders cannot invade."
"What about the residents of the city and the puppet masters who came to participate in the alliance meeting?" Gu Jiuqing asked, "Aren't they also going to be poisoned by it?"
"No, the residents are puppets and are not afraid of this poison. And the puppet master also knows the mechanism here. After nightfall, they will escape on their own." Xiyin explained unhurriedly, "So, it is safe here. No matter what Neither people from Xiliang nor insects can enter."
The second half of the sentence was obviously meant for Gu Jiuqing.
Xiyin really wanted to keep her here, but she didn't know why!
Because she has been caught in the rain, do you also want to hold an umbrella for her?
She didn't think such a good thing would happen to her.
Moreover, Xiyin doesn't look like such a bad person.
Gu Jiuqing got rid of the messy thoughts, and then looked at the layout of the city lord's mansion.
No wonder the city lord's palace is located halfway up the mountain, otherwise it would be covered by the poisonous mist every minute.
However, the fact that this place was spared does not mean that that kind of protective measures cannot be used here?
Then this place has become the most dangerous place!
At this time, Gu Jiuqing soon discovered that the lights below were much dimmed.
Many lanterns seemed to be extinguished.
wrong!
It wasn't extinguished, but it was shrouded in fog!
The fog was still rising, but in a moment, the thick fog covered the roofs of the houses below.
There are some slightly taller buildings with some roofs exposed.
Those rooftops look like isolated islands standing in the vast sea.
If this continues, it will only be a matter of time before the fog reaches the City Lord's Mansion!
Xiyin was not surprised by this. She just looked at the scene below, raised her chin slightly, and said quietly: "The fog below will cover the entire night. Does the King of Zhen have any companions that I need to send someone to?" Rescue?"
There was a hint of schadenfreude in her words.
"No need." Cang Liyuan answered neatly.
Gu Jiuqing understood instantly. No wonder Cang Liyuan retreated, leaving only her to come to this puppet city with him.
In this case, bringing too much would be a burden.
With such a huge poisonous mist, we had to go down and pull them out.
At this time, Xiyin said again: "So, did King Zhen come here alone? It's really courageous!"
"This king is with Qingqing." Cang Liyuan said.
Gu Jiuqing, "..."
Coming out of his mouth, it was like bringing a powerful cheat with him.
She herself doesn’t have such strong confidence!
"Indeed, your blood is not afraid of any poison." Xiyin withdrew her gaze and looked again at the city at her feet that had been submerged in the poisonous mist. "In this case, you two don't need to worry, just go back and rest. .Early tomorrow morning, the fog will dissipate and everything will return to normal."
After saying that, she turned around and left.
When she reached the stairs, Xiyin stopped, turned around, took a deep look at Gu Jiuqing and said, "Girl, please think carefully about my proposal. The person next to you is probably not a good person!"
"I will, thank you girl." Gu Jiuqing could feel the seriousness in Xiyin's eyes, and she seemed to really dislike seeing Cang Liyuan.
The two left quickly. Gu Jiuqing looked at Cang Liyuan seriously and joked: "How did you provoke her?"
"There is an old friend who is also from Xiliang." Cang Liyuan explained casually, "Xiyin is quite familiar with her."
Gu Jiuqing obviously felt that Cang Liyuan was hiding something from her, but she did not ask further.
Who hasn’t clicked through yet?
Moreover, she had no intention of spending the rest of her life with him.
Just as Xiyin said, the fog finally filled the city lord's palace.
Compared to the fog below, the fog here is much lighter.
At least at a glance, it didn't reach the point where you couldn't see your fingers.
"Are we still going down?" Gu Jiuqing heard the sirens coming from space.
Space shows that the fog has an anesthetic effect.
Inhale a little and a person will fall into drowsiness.
But it's not all without solutions. She has relevant medicines here that can resist the fog.
If she can have it, how can she guarantee that others don't have it?
It can be seen that this defense method is not completely impenetrable.
When I was in a trance, I heard Cang Liyuan say: "It's okay, let's go!"
The two of them immediately went down from the Star Reaching Tower and stepped into the mist.
After being shrouded in a layer of fog, those lanterns looked even more ghostly.
As soon as they got off, there were puppets waiting for them to guide them.
The two returned all the way to their previous residence, and when they opened the door, they discovered that there was no trace of fog in the room.
Even if the doors and windows are wide open, there is no sign of fog invading.
They seem to be blocked by an invisible force, which is really interesting.
"Have a good rest!" Cang Liyuan said, "Tomorrow is the Puppet Master Alliance meeting, it will be very lively."
Gu Jiuqing thought to herself, how could she sleep in this situation?
However, she never thought that as soon as she touched the bed, she fell asleep.
That night, she even had a dream.
To be precise, it might not be a dream, but something that happened in the past seen from the insect's perspective.
In the dream, she saw Cang Liyuan when he was a boy. Although his face was green and immature, he was calm and mature befitting his age.
Of course, at that time, compared to now, he was still a bit lively and more like a young man, and he loved to laugh more.
But in the dream, there was a woman who was by his side from beginning to end.
The woman was dressed in white and looked stunning.
However, her relationship with Cang Liyuan was that of both teacher and friend.
The woman is about seven or eight years older than Cang Liyuan, and Cang Liyuan is also very respectful to her.
However, Gu Jiuqing could read a different emotion from the woman's eyes looking at him.
She likes him!
It’s what women like about men!
As for Cang Liyuan, her emotions were hidden so deeply that she couldn't see through them.
But Gu Jiuqing knew that women were obviously very important to him.
Because when he was young, he was obviously very lonely.
In the huge Zhenwang palace, there was no other family except his master. On the contrary, the woman was his only companion and stayed with him the longest.
But all this peace was completely shattered after one incident.
