The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Soon, the restaurant owner came over.

The shopkeeper pointed at the menu hanging on the wall in the lobby, wanting Xiao Han to order directly. But Xiao Han wasn't there to eat, and since she had no money, she didn't dare to order. She could only wave her hands and shake her head.

After gesturing for a long time, Xiao Han finally left the restaurant lobby reluctantly.

As for written communication, she couldn't recognize a single word on the plaques on the streets and the signs hanging in the lobby of the restaurant. She must have known that her simplified Chinese characters were incomprehensible to others.

Based on her limited knowledge, she guessed that the characters here were somewhat similar to seal script.

As for why she guessed it was similar to seal script, it was because the boss of her factory was pretentious and had a seal carved in seal script, and then deliberately asked them to recognize it.

Poor working girl, she didn’t even have a junior high school diploma, so how could she know any seal script?

If she had known that she would be transported to this different time and space, she would have paid someone to teach her how to recognize this kind of writing that is more difficult than traditional Chinese characters.

But money can’t buy you early knowledge.

Xiao Han, who was wandering on the street again, wanted to jump up and curse God.

She had never seen a time traveler more miserable than her.

If you don’t give the time-travel gift package, then you can’t choose an agent, a graduate student, or some other elite and smart person to travel through time.

She is very ordinary and common, and really doesn't want to travel through time.

As it got dark, some shops began to close, while restaurants and inns hung lanterns outside their doors, so that the streets were not completely dark.

In such a prosperous city, there are not many people who like to go out for night walks.

Xiao Han estimated that it should be around ten o'clock in the evening. The streets were already quiet and even the restaurants and inns were closed.

The few scattered lanterns could no longer dispel the darkness.

Xiao Han hugged her arms, feeling a little cold, and squatted in a dark corner where there was a lantern not far away, but the light could not reach her. She looked ahead with blank eyes, praying that this nightmare would end quickly.

However, what she didn't expect was that her current situation was not the worst.

Worse times are about to come.

Just as midnight arrived, Xiao Han, who was trying to suppress his hunger, was curled up in the corner, drowsy, when a patrolling law enforcement team came straight towards him.

The leading captain waved his hand and said, "There is no spiritual pressure, he is not a cultivator, take him away immediately."

Two or three law enforcement team members dressed identically rushed over, swarmed over, and tied up Xiao Han.

"Stop, stop now! What are you doing?"

Xiao Han was stunned for a moment, then instinctively screamed and struggled.

The leading captain tilted his head in surprise and said to a team member beside him, "What did this woman say?"

The team member said in confusion: "I didn't hear it clearly either."

"Let me go, I haven't broken any law, why are you arresting me?"

Xiao Han was still struggling desperately, although her struggle was like an ant trying to shake a tree.

With the help of the nearby lights, she discovered that the seven or eight people who suddenly appeared were all wearing clothes of the same color and style.

Moreover, these people all had scabbards hanging around their waists, and it was obvious that they were not ordinary people.

Such a team could not possibly be human traffickers or robbers.

She really couldn't understand why she was caught even though she was doing nothing and just dozing off in the corner.

The leading captain was now certain that the woman they had captured did not speak their local language.

He secretly guessed that this might be the dialect of some remote place.

Of course, whether he could understand what the other person said or not was irrelevant. According to Lingyun City's rules, anyone found walking around the streets after curfew or sleeping in the streets and alleys at night, as long as they were mortals, would be arrested and imprisoned in the City Lord's Mansion.

The woman in front of me must have come from a remote area and doesn't know the rules of Lingyun City.

Since she was just an ordinary woman, he asked two team members to escort her to the City Lord's Mansion, and he took the rest of the team members to continue patrolling.

Two team members escorted the tied-up Xiao Han to the City Lord's Mansion.

Perhaps because they saw that the other person was just a young and weak woman, one of the team members kindly said, "Don't be afraid. According to the rules, we will just lock you up for one night and then fine you and let you go."

Xiao Han is really desperate now.

She couldn't understand what the other person was saying, and it was clear that the other person couldn't understand her either. Without communication, how could she defend herself?

After passing through a dark alley and turning into another street, we walked for a while and stopped in front of a building whose gatehouse and door were comparable to the front gate of the Forbidden City.

Four guards stood at the gate. Seeing the law enforcement team members escorting a young woman dressed strangely back, one of them laughed and asked, "What crime has this woman committed?"

One team member replied: "It's curfew time, sleeping on the street corner."

The gate guard was surprised and asked, "Is there some reason for this?"

The law enforcement team member curled his lips and said, "We can't understand what she's saying. She must be some silly girl who ran away from some remote village."

After saying that, he and his companions pushed Xiao Han and walked in through the small door next to them.

After walking for an unknown amount of time and going through many twists and turns, Xiao Han was pushed into a room that looked very similar to the prison cells in TV dramas.
