"Welcome home, my husband!"
Yi Qing, who was waiting at the door, had a smile like a flower bud on her face, which made Gu Han's heart warm. Gu Han even thought that Yi Qing had been waiting for his return for a few milliseconds.
However, Guhan quickly realized that Yi Qing had already left this world. The Yi Qing in front of him was definitely not the real Yi Qing.
Guhan carefully observed this Yi Qing's face and found that compared to the young Yi Qing in the dungeon, this Yi Qing looked much more mature. There was a feminine charm and gentleness between her eyebrows.
In terms of figure, this Yi Qing was obviously much taller than the young Yi Qing. Her body was not like the shriveled little girl he first saw. Every part of her body had become plump.
"In terms of appearance, this Yi Qing should be in her thirties!"
Guhan silently made such a judgment in his heart. However, what made Guhan feel strange was that Yi Qing's figure was still the same as when she was a young girl, although she was already in her thirties. She was somewhat shriveled, thin, and her buttocks and chest did not rise or fall. She still looked like a tomboy. She did not look like a mature woman in her thirties at all.
However, when Guhan thought about it, this should be the most normal appearance.
In history, the heaven-covering Jiandi had deceived everyone with his identity as a man.
If he became as plump as a girl in his thirties, how could he hide it from the eyes of the world? Only by thinking of his current appearance could people not see him as a young man.
"Husband, why are you standing at the door?
Hurry up and change! "
Yi Qing saw that Guhan had been standing at the door and looking at her. She blushed and squatted down. She held Guhan's feet and prepared to help Guhan take off his shoes.
"No need, I'll do it myself!"
Gu Han shuddered, and immediately tried to pull his leg out from Yi Qing's grasp, but he didn't expect Yi Qing's grip to be so strong, and Gu Han had to use some strength to jump back … He only heard the sound of a lump, and Gu Han's leg was a distance away from Yi Qing, but Yi Qing's hand was still holding onto Gu Han's ankle.
What was going on?
Yi Qing's hands were like rubber as Guhan stretched them three to four meters away.
This truly gave Gu Han a fright.
"I'm sorry, Qing 'er scared husband!"
Seeing Guhan's surprised expression, Yi Qing took a step back like a frightened rabbit. Then, her hand left Guhan's ankle and retracted like a rubber band, becoming a normal arm.
"Give me the clothes, I'll wear them myself!" Guhan quickly recovered from the shock and said to Yi Qing.
So, Yi Qing handed the clean clothes and shoes to Guhan. After Guhan changed into them, he stepped into the candy house that originally only existed in fairy tales.
"Husband, please!"
Yi Qing gently pushed open the door of the candy house. Only then did Guhan see the decorations inside. There was a living room decorated with various bright colors. Inside the living room, there were two rooms with their doors closed.
There were all kinds of lovely and artistic decorations in the living room. There were some animal head specimens on the wall and many group photos … What surprised Guhan was that although these group photos were group photos, only Yi Qing's face was in them.
The person standing next to Yi Qing and taking a group photo with her was forcibly cut out of the photo.
"Who was the person who was cut out?
Could it be me? "Guhan thought silently.
"Husband, take a rest here. Qing 'er will make tea for you!"
After Yi Qing led Guhan into the living room, she pointed to a sofa and asked Guhan to sit down and rest. Then, she walked into a room that seemed to be the kitchen and began to prepare tea for Guhan.
Guhan looked at the sofa. It was actually made of sticky candy. The surface was densely covered with a layer of black sesame seeds, forming the skin of the sofa.
Not to mention other things, sitting on it felt more comfortable than sitting on a real sofa. There was also a fragrance of peanuts around Guhan.
"Husband, please have some tea."
Yi Qing carried a tea set to the tea table in front of Guhan. Then, she carefully placed the teacups and poured a cup of tea for Guhan.
Guhan picked up the teacup … Eh, this teacup was actually made of peanut candy. When he tasted the tea inside, it tasted like barley tea.
Although barley tea could also be categorized as maltose, it was the closest thing Gu Han had seen in this room to its original form.
Barley tea was indeed tea.
While Guhan was drinking tea, Yi Qing silently sat beside Guhan. She leaned on Guhan's shoulder and muttered the word "husband" in a daze.
Although Guhan's stomach was full of questions, Guhan didn't say anything. He just kept drinking the bitter barley tea.
It was clearly a sugar, but it had a bitter taste. This barley tea was really a magical thing.
"Husband, don't you want to ask Qing 'er any questions?"
After waiting for a long time, Guhan didn't ask any questions. Instead, Yi Qing took the initiative to ask.
"Yes!"
Guhan nodded. "But we still have a lot of time. You don't have to be impatient. You can still lean on my shoulder for a while."
"Husband, you're still so good!
Qing 'er has no regrets following husband. "Yi Qing hugged Guhan's waist and said in a daze.
However, after a while, Yi Qing helplessly straightened her body. "Although Qing 'er also wants to stay with husband for a long time, husband can only stay here for an hour. After an hour, husband has to leave this place, so Qing' er still has some things to tell husband."
"An hour?"
When Guhan heard that there was a time limit, he frowned. "Why is there a time limit?"
"Husband, how long do you think this place can exist?"
Yi Qing smiled bitterly. "In order to preserve this place, Qing 'er extracted all the bacteria and oxygen in it. Then, she used the Life Confinement Array to preserve this place for 700 years."
"Now that you've entered, the oxygen and bacteria will return to this place, and the shackles on life will be lifted … After all, this is something that goes against the heavens. A life that has been sealed for seven hundred years will turn into a pile of bones in an hour, and these candies that have been sealed for seven hundred years will turn into a puddle of stinky water. Therefore, you can only stay here for an hour, husband."
So that was why. Guhan believed Yi Qing's explanation.
No wonder this strange place could maintain its beauty for seven hundred years. No wonder the animals, plants, birds, beasts, insects, and fish were still so lively. It turned out that their lives were all poor people who had been imprisoned … Although this allowed them to defy the laws of nature and live for more than seven hundred years, the price was that they could only live for about an hour after their resurrection.
Even this candy house would probably rot into a pool of black water in a short time due to the corrosion of bacteria and oxygen.
"You shouldn't have told me this. I don't want to imagine this place being destroyed …" Guhan pondered for a while and finally said this.
These were Guhan's heartfelt words. He really didn't want to see this place destroyed. He really liked this dreamy fairytale zone.
"No matter how beautiful it is, it has to be destroyed. Even Qing 'er will turn into a pool of disgusting water after an hour. So, Qing' er hopes that husband can leave this place as soon as possible. The sooner, the better. Then, Qing 'er will be satisfied." Yi Qing said sadly.
"Yi Qing, you're also a candy maker, right?"
Seeing Yi Qing's expression, Guhan recalled Yi Qing's arm that could stretch to a few meters long. He naturally had some guesses about Yi Qing. Yi Qing was the same as this candy house. They were both made of candy.
"Husband's wisdom is still so amazing. Even though Qing 'er's body has been made flawlessly, husband still saw through it!"
When Yi Qing said this, his expression seemed a little depressed and a little excited … A candy man could make these subtle expressions so perfectly. Just as Yi Qing said, it had reached the point of flawlessness.
"Even a flawless appearance can't hide the sweet smell on your body. Plus your hand just now … Your hand should be made of gummy candy, right?" Guhan said leisurely.
"No, it's not gummy candy!"
Yi Qing stretched out his finger. "This is called QQ candy. The scientific name is: Wang Zai QQ Candy."
"Wang Zai QQ Candy?
Why did you give it such a strange name? "
Guhan asked. This name was too stupid. How could there be such a stupid name in this world?
"You have to ask yourself this question. This name was given by husband." Yi Qing's answer made Guhan feel a little ashamed. It turned out that such a stupid name was given by himself.
"Yi Qing, can you tell me what's going on with you now?" Guhan thought for a while and asked this question.
"Qing 'er is probably a puppet now!"
Yi Qing's face was full of smiles. "But the real Yi Qing left a lot of memories for Qing 'er before he left. Qing' er feels that Qing 'er is the real Qing' er and is husband's wife."
"Is that so!"
Guhan's heart was full of emotions. What kind of entanglement did this Heaven Covering Jiandi have with him? He could feel these feelings from her all the time that even he didn't know what to do.
"Well, husband, let's not talk about these meaningless things. We should get down to business!"
Yi Qing clapped his hands and a closed door was opened. There was a sound of an electric motor running inside and a toy truck drove out of the room. There seemed to be something in the back of the truck.
Guhan looked at it and saw that there was nothing else in the back of the truck. It was a long sword that was completely black.
"Could this be the Sword Lady that Hao Tian Jiandi said was about to awaken an Emperor Sword?" Seeing this sword, Guhan's hair stood on end.
