She traveled to the fantasy world and fought monsters

Chapter 16 This is Mu Shuiqi's fate

"It's gone."

Even though he had done something wrong for Mu Shuiqi, Yi Yao still felt indignant.

The pill gradually took shape, a dark brown in color, the size of a night-shining pearl. Bing You continued to inject spiritual energy into it, and in one go, the large pill transformed into many smaller pills.

Yi Yao asked, "What kind of medicine is this?"

"Mortal Longevity Pill."

A bunch of small pills were put into a small ice pot, which flew to Yi Yao. Yi Yao then put it into the red pear wood box where Bing You kept her pills.

Yi Yao was puzzled: "Why would you make longevity pills for mortals?"

My impression is that tomb owners don't like to interact with outsiders, especially mortals. Most gods prefer to practice in solitude, far away from human habitation.

"It's for Mu Shuiqi." Bing You washed his hands in the basin. There was a towel on the shelf. He took it and gently wiped his hands.

Yi Yao silently admired his movements. The tomb master always did things slowly and methodically, with an elegant demeanor.

"Master, why are you so kind to her? She is just a mortal girl."

Bing You stood by the window, gazing at the Zishang Lake ahead with a deep expression. "If she had been born successfully more than a thousand years ago, she might have been a little older than you."

"Are you saying she is from Xuanyu?" Yi Yao was so shocked that his pupils trembled.

"Everything happens for a reason. Her appearance in the Ice Tomb had its own reasons. You don't have to blame her for disturbing your peace."

"Then why didn't she give birth smoothly more than a thousand years ago?"

"It's a long story." Bing You paused, "Do you know why Zishang Lake froze over twenty years ago?"

Yi Yao shook his head. He couldn't figure it out at the time, and later he didn't want to think about it anymore.

"Now that I think about it, it's because the fetal spirit that the demon pill had used its spiritual power to protect for a thousand years escaped. And that fetal spirit was Mu Shuiqi. She was born in the world next door, so I couldn't find her trace."

"Grave Master, could it be that the demon pill she swallowed is..."

Bing You gazed at the distant sky. The sky was always clear and bright, but the world was ever-changing and no longer the same as it once was.

"Yes, it was her mother's demon pill. She didn't find the demon pill, the demon pill chose her."

"Who was her mother? Why did she die while pregnant with her?"

Bing You turned around and looked at Yi Yao's slightly childish face. "That happened more than a thousand years ago. You don't need to know. There is something I need you to do."

Bingling has been a bit idle lately, and Yi Yao was just worried about having no official work to do, when something good happened!

Yi Yao bowed and said, "Yi Yao will obey the orders of the tomb master."

"Spread the news of the real soul's appearance. The more people know, the better."

Although the Xuanyu area seems calm now, there are actually undercurrents, and various forces are secretly working hard to grow and develop.

Legend has it that when the real soul and the virtual soul appear at the same time, the sky in the mysterious realm will change.

The virtual soul has already appeared, but I didn’t expect that the real soul would also appear.

Yi Yao never dared to disobey the tomb master's instructions, but there was one thing he didn't understand. Since the tomb master had no ill will towards Mu Shuiqi and was willing to treat her well, why did he deliberately spread the news of the real soul?

This is tantamount to pushing Mu Shuiqi to the forefront, to the point of life and death!

Bingyou said: "I know what you are thinking."

Yi Yao mustered up the courage to ask, "Then why did you do that? Mu Shuiqi didn't do anything wrong."

Bing You said resolutely, "This is Mu Shuiqi's fate. Her appearance is also the cycle of reincarnation in the Xuanyu Heaven. Don't worry. All people in the world have their own destiny."

"..."

The tomb owner's eyes were sharp and firm.

Having said this, Yi Yao didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he bowed and left.

Chouchou took Mu Shuiqi to the most prosperous capital of Xiwa, Tucheng. They wandered the streets, Chouchou, now in his puppies form, following Mu Shuiqi.

Perhaps the coexistence of humans and demons in Xuanyu was normal, so people on the street weren't too surprised to see the little demon snake, Chou Chou. This made her feel relieved, and she didn't have to hide Chou Chou anymore.

Chou Chou told her that there were many different kinds of monsters in the Xuanyu. Monsters, like humans, had both good and evil sides. People were not afraid of good monsters, but they wanted to avoid evil monsters as much as possible.

As long as they don't harm humans, humans generally won't actively avoid monsters. Of course, if a monster is too large and terrifying, people will still be afraid.

So before entering the capital, Chou Chou turned back into his small form to avoid disturbing everyone.

The streets were bustling with people and filled with food stalls. She was drooling over the delicious food, most of which she had never seen before. She wanted to eat everything, but she had no money.

The two of them walked to the fragrant chicken stall and couldn't move. The aroma was so fragrant that it aroused their taste buds.

The man and the demon swallowed their saliva repeatedly.

Seeing they weren't leaving, the stall owner asked, "Want one?"

"Uh...how much is one?" Mu Shuiqi asked in a low voice.

"20 knife coins."

"What?"

"Sir, do you think it's expensive? I can give you two more pieces of chicken liver." The stall owner said with a smile.

"What does a knife coin look like?" she said.

The stall owner frowned and looked her up and down. "You don't even know what a knife coin is. I don't think you're from Xiwan, you're dressed so strangely. Where are you from?"

He looked at Chou Chou again and said, "Is this snake a monster you raised? It's so skinny, there won't be much meat left if you roast it."

"..."

Depressed. Both the man and the demon were depressed.

Chouchou was unforgiving: "You're fat. Look at you, you're as fat as a pig. How much meat can you get if you roast it?"

"Are you here to buy chicken?" the stall owner said, getting angry and trying to chase them away. "Don't come here if you don't have money."

Mu Shuiqi slammed her palm on the table, looking very aggressive, which scared both the stall owner and Chou Chou.

Chouchou thought she was going to fight with someone.

Unexpectedly, the next second I heard her say: "Boss, can I buy on credit first?"

"..."

The stall owner was stunned. This was the first time someone had come to buy chicken on credit.

"cannot!"

"Is there any place around here where I can make money?"

"I don't know. If you don't want to buy chicken, just go away."

Chouchou pulled her away.

But she really wanted to eat chicken. She had been walking around for a long time and her stomach was empty.

The aroma of the fragrant chicken is so fragrant that you can still smell it even from far away from the stall.

Next we passed a women's clothing store.

Colorful gowns hang at the store entrance, and there are even more styles inside.

Look at the beauties on the street, each of them is wearing a beautiful skirt, and then look at your own sweatpants and sports jacket.

No matter how I looked at it, I felt completely out of place here. Everyone else was wearing beautiful, small embroidered shoes, while I was wearing chunky, old-fashioned shoes.

Wherever she goes, passersby look at her with strange eyes. Sometimes the high rate of turning heads is not because of how beautiful you are, but because of how strange your clothes are.

She wanted to change into a new set of clothes, but she had no money.

It’s hard to move without money.

She decided to do odd jobs. She would find a place to work part-time these days to earn money to support her and Chouchou.

After walking around the streets, she decided that a restaurant was the most suitable place for her to work, so she decided to become a waitress.

It depends on whether anyone is willing to have her.
