Quick Travel: Card Destroyer

Chapter 423 Under the Starry Sky (VI)

"Goddess! Are you leaving now?"

The high priest could no longer suppress his mixed emotions, and like a young child calling out to his elders, he spoke out what was in his mind.

"The pollution in the starry sky has not been completely resolved, and the people in the temple have just started their cultivation. Besides... aren't you afraid that I will use this book of magic you gave me to cheat people in the future?"

Fu Cangzhao tilted his head, his eyebrows slightly raised: "If you can trick a few more women into the temple, I won't care about you. Anyway, this so-called magic book in your hand is indeed given by the goddess, isn't it?"

She pointed to the Secret Art of the Hexagram held by the high priest.

"Besides," Fu Cangzhao added, "I don't want to be in a wheelchair forever, so I have to find a place where I can be healed."

"My lady Goddess... I..." The high priest seemed to want to say something, but he couldn't say it. In the end, he just lowered his eyes, put the book in his arms, and knelt down in front of her.

Fu Cangzhao did not stop him. She did not like the etiquette that clearly distinguished levels, but sometimes people's emotions should be fully expressed, and the high priest was in such a situation where he could not help himself.

The high priest leaned down, spread his hands naturally on both sides of his head, palms facing up, and his forehead lightly touching the ground.

After standing up, she ignored the dust on her knees and walked away without looking back.

"It's time to go." Ji Xueyue returned to her side at some point and tapped the back of the wheelchair with her fingers.

"I remember you said before that the high priest is a 'teachable person'." The person who needed to leave immediately seemed to be in no hurry at all. He smiled and looked in the direction where the high priest left.

Ji Xueyue hummed an inaudible “hmm” and said, “She is ambitious and good at leadership and management. If this world had not rejected me and the Wave, I would have watched her overthrow everything with my own eyes.”

This is why she is more anxious than Fu Cangzhao.

Even with the backdoor opened by Bing Haoqi, she had recently begun to feel an inexplicable repulsive force pushing her body "outside", and every time she tried to leave something behind, the repulsive force would increase dramatically. As a last resort, she could only try her best to convey her wishes through Cangzhao's mouth.

After the four leaves were restored to their mobility, with the help of Fu Cangzhao, they quickly repaired the mecha to a level sufficient to return to the orbit of the starry sky. Her actions were much faster than expected, but in just two days she returned to the surface with two tickets and a group of followers, forming a tight encirclement around the two.

They couldn't see the surrounding scenery clearly, but their spiritual sense could always extend out without anyone noticing and tell them where they had just passed.

Surprisingly, the starry sky orbit and the surface are not completely separated. The surface entrance of the star-ascending passage is quite prosperous, and it seems that mecha masters often come to buy some "local specialties" on the surface. The town residents living there also buy discarded mecha parts from mecha masters and re-melt them into weapons.

The two followed the four leaves into a spacecraft. The passage itself was often described as "long, boring, and annoying", so most mecha pilots were too lazy to get off unless they really needed to; but when the spacecraft started to move and moved up the passage, Fu Cangzhao felt that he was getting closer and closer to safety, so a feeling of fatigue arose spontaneously, which could not be shaken off no matter what, forming a baby-like sleep.

"What's wrong with her?" The four leaf tripods noticed something and asked Ji Xueyue who was still conscious.

"Healing." Ji Xueyue glanced at it and said. In fact, she didn't need to use her naked eyes to check, she knew by feeling that Fu Cangzhao's essence was recovering and replenishing. The action just now was just for outsiders to see.

The half of the soul that escaped from Fu Cangzhao finally came into contact with the starry sky, but it was not entirely the starry sky, but an orbit close to the starry sky.

If you just wander around this location, you will be able to absorb the power of the stars without being affected by the pollution from the starry sky.

Thirty thousand years ago, the history of gods ended and the history of humans began. With the help of the survivors of the previous era, humans built star tracks and star stairs. The star tracks obtain centrifugal force through rotation, thus simulating the gravity on the surface of the earth.

After 30,000 years of reproduction and development, mecha masters have basically become accustomed to a life of switching back and forth between simulated gravity and weightlessness, while those who have just come from the surface to the star orbit often need to spend a lot of time adapting to the new environment.

The starry sky track is not a complete circle, but is made up of several modules. The headquarters of the Four Leaf Family is located in module No. 11. From the outside, it looks like a row of wooden houses full of retro atmosphere.

When Fu Cangzhao woke up, he was in a six-bedroom room. Beside him was a pile of neatly folded clothes, which turned out to be yukata-style when they were unfolded.

There was a mahogany dinner plate next to the clothes, steam was still coming out of the teacup, and the snacks on the porcelain plate were particularly exquisite.

Fu Cangzhao picked up the dessert plate, looked left and right, and felt that she had no idea where to start eating this tender, smooth and bouncy little thing. Suddenly, she noticed a smaller cup next to it, which was filled with cold water, but there was already a cup of tea next to it, so the cold water seemed out of place.

Looking at the things on the plate, she suddenly had an idea and tried to pour the small cup of cold water into the dessert plate. The moment the cold water touched the dessert, the already radiant white surface became even more crystal clear, making her mouth water. She tilted her head back and ate the whole dessert - should it be called a dumpling?

As she savored the refreshing scent between her lips and teeth, she couldn't help but wonder, which genius came up with the idea of ​​combining spring water with snowy pastries?

Afterwards, she casually drank a few sips of hot tea, and then changed into her yukata according to her habit in the world of immortal cultivation. However, no matter how she adjusted the lacing technique, it felt out of place, and the strange style of the shoes and socks made her even more confused.

A young waiter tiptoed to open the door of the room and was stunned when he saw Fu Cangzhao trying hard to put on his yukata.

"Sir, are you awake?" She seemed to realize that it was impolite to stare at the guest's body, so she quickly lowered her head. From Fu Cangzhao's angle, he could just see her snow-white neck and the black hair that formed a sharp contrast with her neck.

Fu Cangzhao didn't care about it, he just waved at her: "Help me with this. Also, there should be another person coming with me, right?"

The waitress looked up again, her large black eyes looking particularly lively, and the expression on her face not being quite hidden, which perfectly matched her obviously young age, and also explained why she didn't seem to have learned etiquette very well.

She also knew that she wasn't doing very well, and she smiled shyly at Fu Cangzhao, with two just the right blushes on her cheeks, which reminded Fu Cangzhao of the cherry color he had just glimpsed through the crack in the door.

The cherry-colored waiter walked forward to help her tidy up her clothes, like a growing kitten or a little rabbit.

"Sister Ding brought two guests with her this time, which is really rare," the waiter said as he combed her hair, his two thin black eyebrows fluttering. "She has made friends with people from the surface before, but she never thought of bringing them up to see us."

About snacks: A long time ago, I saw a kind of strange snack in a video that needs to be eaten with spring water. The corresponding Japanese description is ぷるぷる (していますね), and the Chinese piercing is 浦噜浦噜. In short, it is difficult for me to directly describe the watery, crystal clear and super chewy feeling...
