REBIRTH OF THE QUEEN

Chapter 111 - 111. Save Me

'He's here,' added Hao with his little feet tapping on the glass just above the fruit which looked bigger than the others.

With a slow-motion, Fu Xie Lan tried to open the glass case but her hand hadn't even touched the glass yet, the sound of someone's step stopped the movement of her hand.

The girl reflexively pulled her arm and turned to the source of the voice.

"Sorry, Mister. The plants in this room are not for sale," said a woman who turned out to be the same person who had spoken to her earlier when she was in front of the ginseng glass case.

Hearing that, Fu Xie Lan turned to the glass case. True, indeed there was no price listed there, not only on the glass box, but as far as her eyes could see, she did not find the transaction box and the price listed on the glass box neatly arranged on the lined shelves.

"Is it true?" asked Fu Xie Lan to confirm.

"That's right, please look for the herbs you want outside this room," said the woman so politely.

"Alright, I'm sorry," said Fu Xie Lan and quickly left.

Hao who was still standing on the glass as if he couldn't accept leaving the place, seeing that there was no movement from the creature when she moved, the girl immediately grabbed the hairy creature's small body and got out of there.

After the girl left, the smile on the lips of the woman who was rebuking Fu Xie Lan faded, a black glint appeared in her eyes. Her expression that looked so gentle before was replaced with a face that looked very displeased.

'Miss, someone is trapped there.' Hao said echoing in Fu Xie Lan's mind.

'Can't we just take one fruit?' he added again. The fruit he meant was the biggest of the others.

Hearing Hao suddenly talks much made the girl sigh harshly. She wanted it too if she could.

'Did you hear what the woman said earlier? The plant is not for sale. After all, even if it's for sale, I can't buy it either. My mana stone won't be enough,' Fu Xie Lan replied. Hao who got such a reply from his Miss did not respond. His body that was in Fu Xie Lan's arms again jumped onto the girl's shoulders and curled up languidly there.

"Do you want it?" Gu Yi asked Fu Xie Lan. He doesn't know how many times he heard a sigh escape from the girl's tiny lips. Fu Xie Lan reflexively turned to the origin of the voice.

"I want it, but it's useless. I can't have it," replied Fu Xie Lan again continuing her steps.

"You need my help?" Gu Yi said immediately following the girl's steps.

"What are you going to do anyway?"

"Blow up this place ...maybe?"

"Huh, what a great idea," Fu Xie Lan sarcastically said.

"Wasn't it you who blew up Noelle back then? Why not try it on this building?"

"Yes, and then I live as a fugitive of all races," Fu Xie Lan retorted sharply.

"Isn't it at this time, you have also become a fugitive?" Gu Yi said and managed to make the girl stop in her tracks, turning towards him with a sharp gaze.

"Okay, okay. I'm just joking Queen," said Gu Yi again chuckling.

"We'd better go back," said Fu Xie Lan later.

"Didn't you previously wanted to buy some herbs here?" Gu Yi asked when he heard the girl's words. Fu Xie Lan didn't tell him directly about her purpose of visiting Mecopia, but was there any other purpose when visiting this place apart from wanting to get some herbs?

"Indeed. But it's useless mana stones are very few and not enough to only buy any herbs," She replied. Again She sighed without realizing her.

"Alright, we better head back I don't want you to fall unconscious again like when Noelle was crushed by someone," said Gu Yi again teasing the girl.

Fu Xie Lan chose not to ignore the man too much. For some reason, she was a little tired. Her current physical body is really weak.

They then left Mecopia and returned to the inn empty-handed. It seems that Fu Xie Lan's desire to take care of herself must be postponed until she has enough mana stones to buy herbs that she can use to treat her skin for making it is far from smooth and smooth, especially on her face.

Using horse-drawn carriages, as usual, they sped through the urban crowd. By now, it was already evening. Fu Xie Lan did not expect that they lasted soo much time in Mecopia.

A tinge of orange filled the western horizon, the breeze that blew through the carriage window made Fu Xie Lan's muscles relax a little. Leaning her body on the wooden chair, her mind couldn't escape from the plants in the icy room.

'Do you know who's locked up there?' asked Fu Xie Lan telepathically with Hao.

The creature who was curled up in her lap immediately lifted her head and looked at her.

'No, I don't know who's there, Miss.'

'But one thing I can be sure of, he's just like me, Miss,' he added again and managed to create a frown on the girl's forehead.

'You mean? he is a Magic Beast Spirit like you?' asked Fu Xie Lan.

'Not. I can't be sure he's a beast just like me, Miss. it's just that the energy I feel is the same energy that I have. And whether it's a Magic Beast Spirit or not, I don't know.' Hao said in her head.

'Can't a being like you guys live in a place that doesn't have enough mana?' asked Fu Xie Lan.

'That's right, Miss. That's why he asks for help when he senses your presence. The mana in that place also doesn't allow any spirits to last long,' Hao explained.

'Then why me? Aren't there many other people besides me in that place?' asked Fu Xie Lan slightly confused. She couldn't properly digest Hao's explanation.

'For this. I'm sorry, Miss. I can't tell you,' Hao said, resting his head on the girl's lap again.

'All right, that's fine.'

While on the other hand, Gu Yi was silent in front of Fu Xie Lan. He knew that the girl was talking to the little creature.

Although he didn't know what they were talking about, seeing the interaction between the two he was very sure that it was very important to the girl, especially when his eyes occasionally caught the faint frown on Fu Xie Lan's forehead. After all, he prefers to be in this position and situation, just stay silent and watch the girl in front of him as he pleases.
