I was forced to leave the world of immortal cultivation after being transformed into a loser.

Xiahou Jingrong shared the news he had gotten from the shipping company: "That shipping company said they sail out to sea once every ten days, and there will be a ship sailing in three days. A ticket costs 500 low-grade spirit stones, including round trip.

The boat will take people to an island in the deep sea called Liuli Island. People on the boat can return by the next boat or any subsequent boat.

Gu Liyue said thoughtfully, "The cost of accommodation, food, and the boat ride is quite high. I need to ask Senior Brother Nie to see how much he can reimburse us. Uh... I mean, how much the academy can pay for us."

Everyone had different expressions. Yun Lizhi looked calm, but she was thinking in her heart: It’s good enough that the college provides travel expenses for me to go out and gain experience, but will they also cover accommodation expenses?

Xiahou Jingrong recalled that when they were sailing, he was still calculating whether he had enough spirit stones. Seeing Gu Liyue like that, he felt more at ease.

Xiao Ju's expression was: That's great, it really is a good idea to follow Gu Liyue!

Li Xiuyuan and Qiao Zhiwen looked at each other and said nothing.

Wen Qinnuan said, "It would be great if the college could cover the expenses!"

Su He seemed not to hear anything and was fascinated by the atmosphere of the city.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Nie Hengzhou walking in. Gu Li quickly asked him to sit down and asked him about the expenses of this trip to the Illusion Sea.

Nie Hengzhou was stunned for a moment. He had never thought about this problem!

Normally, he doesn't have to spend any spirit stones to do things in Qingxuan City, and he can keep accounts when he goes out for training and takes the teleportation array. He has never asked his master about this.

Gu Liyue saw his confused look and knew that he had never thought about this question.

She asked weakly, "Why don't you ask your master?"

After a moment, Nie Hengzhou said, "Master has agreed that the college will cover the expenses in Xiyun City."

"Then I'll keep the account first, and then I'll go back and take the account book to see the Great Elder."

Gu Liyue asked him again if he wanted to go out to sea with him in three days.

Nie Hengzhou replied, "I want to see if I can finish what I'm doing here. Once I'm done, I'll go out to sea with you guys. I've only been to this Illusionary Sea once."

At this time, the boss came to serve the dishes, and everyone was a little hesitant when they saw food they had never eaten before.

Gu Liyue, however, was a person who liked to eat seafood. She picked up a big crab and started to open it, and also opened a piece for Xiaoxuan.

The millet is cooked with relish.

Everyone watched her do it and started eating like her.

Everyone enjoyed the meal very much. You can’t eat such fresh seafood if you are not at the seaside, and it contains a lot of spiritual energy.

After everyone finished eating and walked to the entrance of the alley, they saw a small figure standing there. Wen Qinnuan said, "Xiaoyu, how long have you been standing here?"

Lan Xiaoyu smiled and said, "It won't take long, just a little while. I asked my mother, and she said that if you want to go out to sea, you need to buy some things for the sea. I can take you there."

Nie Hengzhou said to Gu Liyue, "I have something else to do. I'll be leaving first. Send me a message when you get to the rented yard."

"Ok."

Gu Liyue asked Lan Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu, besides the boats that go out to sea here, are there any other boats going out to sea?"

"Yes, fishing boats are not sailing boats, but fishing boats don't go to deep sea areas. If you want to go to deep sea areas, you must take a sailing boat to be safe."

"So what equipment should we buy to go to the deep sea?"

Lan Xiaoyu said, "I don't know much about those water-repellent equipment, such as robes, water-repellent beads, water-repellent talismans, and weapons that work better in seawater. But I can take you to a store that sells them."

Gu Liyue looked at them and saw that they all wanted to go and take a look, so the group set off in a mighty manner.

Gu Liyue asked Lan Xiaoyu: "Is there a spiritual herb shop in Xiyun City?"

Lan Xiaoyu said: "Yes! I can take you there!"

Gu Liyue said, "Take them to see the seagoing equipment first, then take me to see the spiritual herbs."

"Do you have a spiritual herb garden here? Are the spiritual herbs picked from the mountains or grown in the garden?"

"Uh, I remember my mother mentioned the Spiritual Herb Garden, but I don't know the details." Lan Xiaoyu said a little embarrassedly, "My mother might know, why don't I take you to ask her."

"Isn't your mother feeling unwell? Wouldn't it be a good idea to disturb her?"

"It's okay. My mother just can't work too hard. It's still okay to chat with my sister."

Arriving at the equipment store, Gu Liyue said, "Qiao Zhiwen, come with me to visit Lan Xiaoyu's mother. You guys go do some shopping."

Qiao Zhiwen is an alchemy practitioner who has studied medicine. He knows that Gu Liyue wants him to go and see Lan Xiaoyu's mother's illness.

Gu Liyue said to Lan Xiaoyu, "I'll let this brother check on your mother, okay?"

Lan Xiaoyu looked at Qiao Zhiwen. He was so handsome. Although he didn't look as strong as the short-haired guy, she liked good-looking people.

He hesitated and said, "Really? But I don't have many spirit stones at home."

Qiao Zhiwen said calmly: "It doesn't matter, I don't want your spirit stone."

Lan Xiaoyu thanked him happily and skipped ahead to lead the way.

The two followed Lan Xiaoyu and walked all the way to a remote place in Xiyun City.

Lan Xiaoyu led them into a small courtyard: "Mother, Xiaoyu is back."

Gu Liyue looked around the yard and found that there were only two rooms in the yard, with a simple kitchen built in the corner.

Although the yard is small, it is kept clean.

A weak voice came from the room: "Xiaoyu, you're back so early today."

"Mother, I brought back guests."

There was a sound of "cough cough cough" coming from the room. Xiaoyu looked at Gu Liyue and Qiao Zhiwen apologetically. Gu Liyue said, "It's okay. Go see your mother."

Xiaoyu asked them to sit on the bench in the yard before walking into the room. After a while, Xiaoyu came out supporting a middle-aged woman who looked a little haggard.

She looked at them apologetically and said, "I'm sorry for the poor hospitality."

Gu Liyue saw that her bones were only about twenty years old, and wondered why she looked so old. A closer look revealed that she must be a cultivator. There was no spiritual energy flowing through her body, and there was a slight trace of spiritual energy in her dantian, but it was not obvious.

Gu Liyue felt strange, why a cultivator would end up in such a situation. Her expression was like that of an elderly person, as if she was about to die, but was holding on and couldn't let go of anything.

Gu Liyue and Qiao Zhiwen exchanged a glance, and Qiao Zhiwen said, "My dear Xiaoyu, I have asked you to come and treat your illness. My last name is Qiao. May I know what your name is, Madam?"

Tang Xiaoer thought of her last name, which had not been mentioned for a long time. She had once been the pride of her family, but now she hardly dared to mention it.

She said bitterly, "My last name is Tang. My husband's last name is Lan."
