Chapter 706 Flowers and Soup
The moment the floating city flew high, Gu Qingshan also breathed a sigh of relief.
At some point, Xiao Xi was already standing beside him, looking quietly at the scene under the sky.
"Finally it is coming out." Xiao Xi sighed.
"Is this the monster?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"It's it, these hands are just their skin, and it's really still half asleep and half awake." Xiao Xi said.
Gu Qingshan looked at her and said, "It turns out that you have fought against such an existence, which is really unimaginable."
Xiao Xi thought, "I originally thought that the demon insect in the ancient food world could successfully appease it, but who knew it had failed. I wonder if there was any other way for the gods to do it."
"No matter what the gods think, what can we escape from here now?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"No, I am too weak now." Xiao Xi sighed.
The two of them paused and looked into the black market at the same time.
In the entire black market, except for the console that controls the flying city, other places were in chaos.
Fight, kill, rob, destroy...
People flocked into various stores like crazy, snatching things that are useful to them, and if they encounter obstacles, they will directly break out of battle.
Some people start to take revenge and revenge.
The battle started everywhere.
Fortunately, Gu Qingshan is picking the remote place at the edge of the flight center, and there is no wealth worth searching for. No one has arrived yet.
Listening to the thunderous sound from afar, Xiao Xi said in confusion: "It's obvious that they are already desperate and dying, why do they still want to do this?"
Gu Qingshan looked at her and asked back, "When you were not sealed before, you had very little contact with all living beings?"
"Yes, I just sleep every day except fighting monsters..." Xiao Xi looked at the endless killings and competitions in the black market, and asked: "Why are they all crazy?"
Gu Qingshan said: "This is the nature of all living beings."
"The nature of sentient beings..." Xiao Xi said incomprehensiblely: "When you are in a desperate environment, will sentient beings change their temperaments?"
"It's not that the temperament changes a lot, this is their true nature. Only after the strong are satisfied will these things be temporarily calmed down."
After Gu Qingshan finished speaking, he took out something from behind.
One pot.
Various seasonings and ingredients were also placed on the table.
He pinched a trick, drew water from the air and washed the pot, and then started to process the ingredients.
Xiao Xi said in surprise: "What are you doing?"
"Well—This is also the nature of sentient beings." Gu Qingshan said.
Since he arrived in Zhengba District, he has not eaten a bite of hot food. He just ate an extremely unpalatable bite of food and finally couldn't help but want to get something to eat.
He moved very quickly, and in a short while he prepared a few dishes and a pot of soup.
"Since the enemy is completely unstoppable, I have to eat something first - only after I have enough food can I have the energy to think about the problem." Gu Qingshan said.
Xiao Xi looked at the dishes, her nose moved, and her face showed envy.
"Can you eat so much by yourself?" she asked.
"Of course not, come and eat with me."
Gu Qingshan asked her to sit down.
At this time, Xiao Xi became a little embarrassed.
"What's wrong with you?" Gu Qingshan asked with a squinted eyes when he saw her wrong.
Xiao Xi hesitated and said, "I-I may not be suitable for this matter."
Gu Qingshan was a little surprised: "It's just a meal, what's the right thing to do?"
Xiao Xi's eyes fell on the steaming food and said softly: "The gods told me that there are only two things in my life, fighting and sleeping."
"Fighting can eliminate evil, and sleeping can restore physical strength."
"Apart from this, I cannot do all the actions of sentient beings, because that will gradually lead me to fall."
Gu Qingshan silently asked, "So you have never eaten food?"
"Yes."
"Isn't doing anything other than fighting or sleeping?"
“…That’s not, when I gradually began to observe the world, I felt my own changes.”
"What changes?" Gu Qingshan asked.
Xiaoxi said: "I began to feel that some things can be approached."
"For example?" Gu Qingshan asked.
Xiaoxi took out a card and handed it to Gu Qingshan.
Gu Qingshan looked over.
On the card is a bouquet of pink flowers.
He shook the card lightly.
A bouquet of pink flowers emitting a faint fragrance appeared in the hands.
"So beautiful." Gu Qingshan sighed.
He handed the flower to Xiao Xi.
Xiao Xi held the flower and sniffed it a few times, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Once, I wiped out the sins of a world and accidentally discovered the existence of flowers when I left. I didn't know why, so I collected a bunch of them."
"Since then, every time I go to a world, I look for some flowers to collect."
"The gods discovered my behavior, and they found it strange, so they asked me why I did this."
"How did you answer?" Gu Qingshan asked.
Xiao Xi showed a memory and said, "I said-I like these flowers and I also like to travel between different worlds."
"From that day, the attitudes of the gods towards me changed."
"Has it changed?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"They seem to be hiding from me - but there is a goddess who likes flowers very much, so why can she like it, but I can't?" Xiao Xi asked in confusion.
When she met her clean and flawless eyes, Gu Qingshan was speechless for a moment.
Xiao Xi continued: "After that, the gods let me come to this world and fight the monster underground. When I tried my best to seal the monster, the gods appeared."
"They put a seal on me, and I fell into a deep sleep--until recently."
Gu Qingshan said: "Let's go back to the question just now. The gods don't allow you to do things other than fighting and sleeping, so do they have their own diet?"
"Ah, yes, the gods like to hold banquets the most." Xiao Xi seemed to remember something, showing a hint of envy.
Gu Qingshan smiled silently.
He scooped a bowl of soup by himself and placed it gently in front of Xiao Xi.
"Try it." he said.
Xiaoxi said nervously: "But I have never drunk anything."
Gu Qingshan smiled and said, "I promise you that the soup I made is worth trying."
Xiaoxi looked at him.
He nodded.
Xiao Xi took a deep breath and said to herself: "Actually, I have always been curious about what kind of food is like."
She picked up the bowl and sucked it gently on the edge of the bowl carefully.
"How does it taste?" Gu Qingshan asked.
He found himself a little nervous.
This is the first time since he set up a stall that he has felt this emotion in so many years.
Xiaoxi stayed for a while.
She lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes with her hands.
"I... don't know how to describe this feeling."
She said softly, holding up the bowl again.
