REBIRTH OF THE QUEEN

Chapter 275 - 275. Late

"Nothing is impossible in this world, Uncle. I'm just saying, maybe Uncle will meet her again," Fu Xie Lan replied.

"Oh Yes, I hope so," replied Master Liu leaning back. If so, then he was looking forward to that day coming.

After saying that, Fu Xie Lan didn't respond anymore and silence again ensued in the carriage.

"We have arrived at our destination, Master," the coachman's voice suddenly sounded, he turned his head towards the back where Master Liu and Fu Xie Lan were.

The horse-drawn carriage stopped not far from a large green gate.

Fu Xie Lan who heard the voice of the man in front of her slowly got up from her position, stretched her muscles for a moment then moved to open the carriage door and got off from there. Master Liu did the same.

"Come on, Xie Lan," said the middle-aged man as soon as he got off the carriage. He didn't even say thank you to the coachman for still feeling irritated and just left, walked away from there.

The first thing that entered the girl's violet eyes was a green gate of enormous size. A gem that also has a green color is right in the middle of the gate, maybe when the gate is open, then the gem will appear to split in two and come back together when the gate is closed. It's just Fu Xie Lan's guess.

The green gem occasionally looks captivating because it reflects the moonlight that shines not too brightly.

Not only that, an engraved tree painting filled the two gates. It seems real and looks so cool to the eye.

"Where are you going, Uncle?" asked Fu Xie Lan when she saw Master Liu turning towards a crossroads not far from her place.

"We're late, kid," Master Liu replied turning his body to face Fu Xie Lan.

Seeing the confused look on the girl's face, Master Liu spoke again, "The gate leading to the Fairy Territory will automatically close when it reaches midnight," he explained.

"And will only open again in the morning," he added again.

Fu Xie Lan who heard this slightly frowned. That means tonight they won't be entering the fairy race territory.

"Is it always like that, Uncle?"

"Um, that's the fairy race's rule, kid," Teacher Liu replied.

"That means no one should travel in and out of fairy territory after the allotted time," Fu Xie Lan muttered to herself.

"What you say is true, fairies usually rest at night. So to prevent anything unwanted, we apply such a rule," explained Master Liu in one breath.

"We don't know what kind of danger lurks when the gate is opened continuously," he added.

Fu Xie Lan who heard Master Liu's words just nodded in understanding.

"It's best if we also rest tonight and leave tomorrow morning after the gate is opened," said Master Liu.

"But Uncle, where are we going? It's late at night," said Fu Xie Lan.

"Don't worry about it, The inn here conforms to the rules set by the fairy race."

Again, Fu Xie Lan was a little confused as to what the middle-aged man said.

"Or in short, the inn here is open constantly. This is so that those who enter Fairy Territory late will have a place to rest while waiting for the gates to open again," explained Master Liu. And at the same time, Fu Xie Lan's confusion was resolved.

Although in her previous life she was classified as intelligent and genius, being in this new life makes her face new things too, and it sometimes causes her to feel like the dumbest person alive in this world. She didn't know, Fu Xie Lan just felt that way.

"Alright, Uncle. I'll just go with it," said Fu Xie Lan.

"Emm, don't stay away from me," Master Liu replied then turned his body back and continued on his way.

Fu Xie Lan followed closely behind only about two steps away from Master Liu's whereabouts.

Walking for about a few minutes, Master Liu entered a very small inn, the walls were only made of bamboo with a roof that looked like it was made of rattan.

For a moment Fu Xie Lan was stunned to see the building in front of her, it turns out that she can also find rattan in this place.

Of the many inns, Master Liu chose this smallest place.

While Fu Xie Lan herself did not understand, whether the building standing in front of her could be called an inn or not.

Entering the yard, even the dry leaves are seen scattered to meet it.

The dim light coming from only one lantern in the middle of the courtyard added to the gloom of the place a little.

Master Liu and Fu Xie Lan stepped in, the sound of dry leaves accompanying their steps, clearly filling the silence.

"Uncle, why did you choose this place?" asked Fu Xie Lan who couldn't contain her curiosity anymore.

Master Liu paused for a moment, turned to face Fu Xie Lan with a sad look on his face.

"I'm sorry, kid. My spirit stone is only enough to rent a place this small for the two of us to stay," Master Liu replied with a heavy sigh.

The middle-aged man was very familiar with Ocarina. All the inns that filled the place had costs that could be said to be more expensive than other places.

Not without reason, because it seems that the owners of the inn in the Ocarina are very clear on the needs of the fairies or newcomers who are late in entering the gate.

They need lodging to rest, so the owner deliberately raises the price of the inn a little more expensive and makes a big profit.

There was no concern at all that their inn being empty of visitors.

Because lodging in Ocarina is like a primary need.

Hearing Master Liu's words, Fu Xie Lan was silent for a few seconds.

"Uncle, let's go there," said Fu Xie Lan while pointing at a building that looked very clean and elegant at the same time. The inn was across the street where Fu Xie Lan was currently.

Looking at the inn that Fu Xie Lan was referring to, Master Liu rubbed his face.

"I'm sorry, Kid. If we stay at that place, then all the spirit stones I have will run out, or maybe there won't be enough," lamented Master Liu, guilt-filled him for not being able to give Fu Xie Lan the best place.

"Don't worry, Uncle. Come with me," said Fu Xie Lan immediately to the inn in question.
