The Empress rubbed her brows and said with some pain, "Forget it."

In order to learn as much as possible about Ku Hai's situation, the two naturally wanted to hide their identities.

After walking for a while on the street where chickens, ducks, geese and dogs were running around, Gu Jiu and the empress finally found a rather simple clothing store.

This is the end of the street, and the previous chaotic and bustling market has been left behind.

The two of them appeared in the store in a flash, as if they had teleported in an instant, so that the store owner had no idea they had come in.

A drunk lying on the street corner saw this scene and concluded that he was still drunk from last night.

Soon, two sets of clothes disappeared from the shop silently, and a gold ingot was left on the windowsill.

Gu Jiu and the empress quickly changed their clothes and integrated into the local culture.

The empress was wearing a well-fitting hunting suit, a white shirt and trousers with a pair of leather boots, which perfectly set off her beautiful body curves and made her look heroic.

Gu Jiu wore a small leather armor with black trousers and a cowhide felt hat, which covered most of his face.

With the new clothes, the two of them were not so conspicuous when walking on the street.

But Gu Jiu was a little depressed because the empress's clothes looked more high-end than his.

It felt like the empress was a lady traveling, and he was her follower.

Hey!

That clothing store definitely favors girls over boys.

He chose for a long time, and this one was the best one.

Just then, a strong aroma of ale wafted over.

Gu Jiu looked at a liquor store on the street, twitched his nose, and asked in confusion: "Beer?"

After hearing Gu Jiu's words, the empress asked in confusion: "What kind of wine?"

Gu Jiu smiled and said, "Miss, shall we go and try it?"

After this journey, Gu Jiu has learned some of the local language usage.

It turns out that the whole world speaks Chinese.

The empress readily accepted Gu Jiu's suggestion.

Aren’t you tired after driving the boat for so long?

But they soon encountered a problem, which was money.

They had just observed that transactions here generally used copper coins with an eye printed on the surface, and no gold, silver or the like was used.

This is also the reason why they had to buy clothes so secretly before.

Maybe by the time they get here, gold and silver are no longer in circulation.

Just then, a man wearing a small hat bumped into them.

Seeing this, Gu Jiu smiled slightly, took the initiative to stand there, and bumped into the other person.

Afterwards, the man in the cap said sorry and ran away.

Gu Jiu stood there, holding a lot of copper coins, and said with emotion: "Someone really gave me money."

Just from the behavior of this thief, it can be seen that this sea of ​​suffering is not entirely a paradise. At least from the level of this small town, it is still some distance away from some towns in the Tang Dynasty.

But this makes sense, after all, humans have not been here for long.

In contrast, the majestic city built against the mountain in the distance appears even more magnificent and mysterious. The more you look at it, the less it seems to be the work of an ordinary person.

Chapter 21 Fantasy Under the Starry Sky

Now that they have money, they naturally don’t have to worry about not having money to drink.

So the empress and Gu Jiu walked straight into the small wooden bar and sat down.

There were several tables of people sitting in the store, both men and women. The men were rough and the women were charming. Most of them were drinking from a large wooden cup, looking quite open.

Especially the scenes where the wine flows down the women's chins and necks to their clothes are simply tempting.

However, Gu Jiu had no interest in these pictures because these people were not good-looking.

If you are good-looking, everything you do will be pleasing to the eye. If you are ugly, everything you do will be ugly.

The two of them each ordered two large glasses of beer, ready to drink to their heart's content.

The aroma of the wine was a memory for Gu Jiu, a fleeting fragrance from his previous life; but for the empress, it was a novelty, as she had never tasted wine that looked like horse urine.

After watching Gu Jiu take a few sips of wine from the wooden cup that covered half of his face, the empress frowned slightly and drank some.

At first she drank it politely, as if she was just trying a few sips. But later on, like Gu Jiu, she started to drink it up with her neck raised.

Because only in this way can you enjoy the drink.

Not long after, after two large glasses of beer, Gu Jiu and the Empress burped at the same time, then burst into laughter, looking very satisfied.

After paying for the wine, Gu Jiu and the empress prepared to go to the huge city. After all, judging from the current situation, that was the core of the Sea of ​​Bitterness.

As a result, as soon as he and the empress came out of the tavern, they found that the man had returned with six people behind him.

The man, with a scar on his face, said coldly, "Little brother, isn't it a bit too much to eat this bowl of rice on my head?"

Gu Jiu shrugged and said, "Your horses are good."

"Huh?" After hearing Gu Jiu's words, the group of people couldn't help but be stunned.

Among the seven people, two were leading two yellow horses. They didn't look very good, but Gu Jiu said they were good.

"You don't fucking understand what I'm saying?" the scarred man said angrily.

Gu Jiu's mind moved, and the two yellow horses felt as if they were pricked by needles. They were suddenly frightened, kicked the two men over, and ran away.

The scene was a little chaotic for a while. These people didn't know whether they should chase their horses or continue to block Gu Jiu and the others.

"Damn it, just wait for me." Seeing that several of his companions were chasing the horses, the man with the scar made a harsh remark and also went to chase the horses.

Gu Jiu looked at this scene and said calmly: "It seems that thieves are more timid."

Yes, when the man saw that there were fewer people, he immediately lost all intention of beating up Gu Jiu.

"Let's go and ride some horses too." The empress said as she walked out.

Gu Jiu and the empress left the town. Just as the thieves grabbed the frightened horse, Gu Jiu moved his mind again and two energy needles were inserted into the horse's butt.

The two thieves were scolding their horses from behind, but the horses were frightened again, raised their hind hooves, kicked the two thieves to the ground, and ran away again.

During this period, the horse suffered a lot. It was pricked by Gu Jiu's energy needles from time to time, and ran faster and faster until the thief could no longer catch up.

This group of thieves felt really unlucky. Not only did their brothers’ money get stolen, but they also lost two horses.

Just when they were feeling depressed, Gu Jiu and the Empress came back riding their horses after a while.

Seeing their horses being ridden by the other party, this group of horse thieves was about to go crazy. Unfortunately, Gu Jiu and the empress turned around and rode away on their horses, leaving this group of people behind to eat dust. They were so angry that they almost vomited blood.

After the two men had played a trick on this group of thieves, they couldn't help but burst into laughter and felt it was really refreshing.

At this point, Gu Jiu discovered that it was quite interesting to do this kind of thing after becoming invincible.

The Empress felt this way particularly strongly.

Although Gu Jiu became a saint at birth, he was born in an ordinary town and experienced the life of an ordinary family; while the empress had almost forgotten what the ordinary world was like.

She has been doing big things all the time, but now she finds that doing small things is also pretty good, like making those thieves so angry that they want to vomit blood.

Although the yellow horse is inferior, it performs at an extraordinary level with the support of the empress and Gu Jiu's special vitality.

Countless mud particles were blown up on the road. Gu Jiu and the other man rode their horses briskly, and the wind blew on their faces, which was very comfortable.

Gradually, the wheat fields around gradually decreased and were replaced by patches of grassland.

The grass is also growing very lush, and it can be seen that the land is fertile.

The flocks of sheep and cattle that appear from time to time create a scene of "the wind blows the grass low and the cattle and sheep are seen".

He rode like this for hundreds of miles and saw very few people around.

As it was getting dark, Gu Jiu and the empress prepared to spend the night in the wilderness, after all, there was no village in front and no shop behind.

To be honest, they felt very relaxed after arriving at Kuhai because the atmosphere here was indeed a lot more relaxed.

They could not sense any evil presence, and people's expressions were full of security.

This is very similar to the cities around the early Galan City. Many people don’t even believe in the existence of evil spirits and live in peace.

As night falls, the entire sky turns into a brilliant starry sky.

The empress and Gu Jiu sat on the grass and felt that the sky was very close to them.

Those bright stars seem to be within reach.

Gu Jiu closed his eyes and murmured, "The spiritual energy of heaven and earth here is too abundant."

In his perception, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was like a dense rainstorm, occupying the entire world.

The Empress looked at the seemingly endless grassland and said, "The land here is so fertile. Whether it's used for farming or grazing, it can feed a large number of people."

In this sea of ​​suffering, Gu Jiu saw the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, while the empress saw fertile land. It was obvious that she had planned to bring the people of Tang to this place for a long time.

At this moment, Gu Jiu couldn't help but look at the huge city wall in the distance, frowning and saying, "This place is so rich in spiritual energy, and the people inside are descendants of the immortals and Buddhas of the past. Will we be unable to defeat them?"

The Empress said, "I don't know. I'm afraid we'll only know after the fight. After the Apocalypse, you're the person who's gone the furthest I've ever seen."

Gu Jiu smiled and responded: "Mutual, mutual."

The two of them praised each other's business, which made each other feel very happy.

Gu Jiu pondered and said, "As the saying goes, 'pressure creates motivation.' Life here is too comfortable. Although there's plenty of spiritual energy, the people here might become addicted to it and lose interest in cultivation, which could lead to them being beaten by us."

The Empress nodded and said, "I hope it's as you said. That way, our leverage will be much greater."

Afterwards, the strongest man and woman in the Tang Kingdom imagined many things under the starry sky.

Of course, most of it is beautiful.

The Empress was unusually talkative, and when she got excited, she couldn't help but sigh, "If only I had a glass of beer right now."

Chapter 22: Eighteen Falls

The wind on the grassland was strong, but for Gu Jiu and the empress who had experienced many storms, it was very gentle and felt very comfortable blowing on their bodies.

Two rattan chairs, two people lying on them, and two yellow horses eating grass peacefully beside them, making tiny chewing sounds. It formed a very beautiful scene.

Gu Jiu and the empress slept soundly under the starry sky, as if they were about to merge into the entire quiet and beautiful world.

The silence was suddenly broken until the two yellow horses let out a cry of fear.

Hundreds of steps away, more than ten pairs of green eyes emerged from the grass.

Wolf pack.

The leading wolf was very tall, with gray hair. After seeing Gu Jiu, the empress and the two skinny yellow horses, he sat down directly, like a king.

Naturally, it doesn't need to do the next thing itself.

Seeing several gray wolves approaching, the yellow horses wanted to escape, but they were tied up, so they could only neigh anxiously, trying to wake up the two sleeping people.

At this time, the empress rubbed her nose and said lazily, "It's so noisy."

Unfortunately, she only said these two words, then turned over and continued to sleep.

The yellow horse was stunned for a moment and continued to neigh.

Gu Jiu was still sleeping in an attitude that said, "Face me head-on!", without any reaction at all.

Neither of them woke up, but Haoyu Jian woke up.

It first changed from a sword bracelet into a three-foot green sword, and then jumped off Gu Jiu.

It glanced at Gu Jiu and bent the sword. If it could speak, it would probably sigh.

After that, it jumped towards the wolf pack.

The wolves were suddenly confused when they saw a sword jumping towards them, and they couldn't help but let out low roars.

Haoyu Sword ignored the gray wolves and jumped in front of the leader wolf, emitting a clear cold light.
