190: This girl is not to be messed with!
Oh no, he had forgotten about her.
It was true that none of the three of them had reached their boarding time, but this was Gu Mingzhu's first time seeing a green train!
If she wanted to go and sit for a ride, then the three of them really had no reason to stop her.
"Alright, you go on the train, we won't be going up," Wang Yi was resigned to his fate now; given Gu Mingzhu's curiosity, she would definitely insist on getting on the train.
Don't let her seemingly delicate and frail appearance fool you; her curiosity was incredibly strong.
He wondered if the City Lord had ever told her the saying, "Curiosity killed the cat."
However, Gu Mingzhu did not get on the train immediately. Instead, she asked them, puzzled, "Why am I the only one getting on the train? Aren't you all going?"
Could there be something strange about this train?
But their expressions didn't look like they were trying to trick her.
"Because our boarding time hasn't arrived yet," Ge Yunying spoke for Wang Yi. "So, only you can ride the train now; we can't."
"There's such a rule?" Gu Mingzhu's expression of confusion now was much more genuine than when she had always been smiling before.
She also looked cuter.
Gu Mingzhu walked to the train door, half-believing, half-doubting. She looked up and saw the naturally floating text:
"Do you need to ride the train?"
Gu Mingzhu turned to look at the three of them, Wang Yi included. "How should I answer? Should I say 'yes,' or just go straight in?"
It must be said that when she was this uninhibited, she truly showed her innocence.
"Just get on the train," Wang Yi said, then asked, "Did you bring any spirit stones?"
"I did. I have some in my storage bag."
Gu Mingzhu nodded. Her storage bag was packed full, not only with spirit stones but also with various life-saving items, all of which her City Lord Senior Brother had insisted she take before she left.
"Then you go on ahead. We'll wait for you outside," Wang Yi certainly didn't want to wait, but he had promised his master to look after Gu Mingzhu.
"It's fine, it's fine. You can go about your business. As long as I don't enter the Inner Circle, I can take care of myself," Gu Mingzhu shook her head.
Hearing this, Wang Yi couldn't help but chuckle. "How do you know the train won't enter the Inner Circle?"
Gu Mingzhu: ???
Oh, right! This train seemed to have just traveled here from the direction of the Inner Circle!
Ah, this... Gu Mingzhu swallowed. Although her strength was formidable, if she really encountered a seventh or eighth-tier ferocious beast in the Inner Circle, could she still walk out alive?
"Go ahead and get on the train. We'll follow behind," Wang Yi said.
"Alright then," Gu Mingzhu boarded the train from the door with a nervous heart, and then new text appeared before her eyes.
"Welcome aboard this train. Please sit down and hold on tight. Please purchase a ticket upon boarding. The fare is one hundred and fifty low-grade spirit stones."
Seeing this text, Gu Mingzhu finally understood why Wang Yi had asked her if she had brought spirit stones earlier.
However, this was not surprising; when traveling within the Wall by taking a vehicle driven by others, one also had to spend some spirit stones.
One hundred and fifty low-grade spirit stones might be a bit expensive for others, but for Gu Mingzhu, it was just a small number.
Her storage bag contained quite a few mid-grade and high-grade spirit stones!
"Here, I'll buy a ticket," she counted out enough spirit stones from her storage bag and held them in her hand.
Since she hadn't seen anyone since getting on, she didn't know where to hand over the spirit stones, so she just held them in her hand.
As soon as she finished speaking, the spirit stones in her hand disappeared the next second, replaced by a thin train ticket.
It read:
"Passenger Name: Gu Mingzhu
Boarding Time: Apocalypse Year 308, July
Number: 267"
The text before her also appeared:
"Welcome aboard this train. Please sit down and hold on tight."
Gu Mingzhu was extremely surprised; this train actually knew her real name?
She subconsciously looked at the driver's seat, but it seemed to be enveloped in a mist, making it impossible to see anything clearly.
Amazing, truly amazing.
Gu Mingzhu couldn't help but click her tongue. It seemed she had made the right choice by following Wang Yi to the forest for training today, otherwise, she might never have encountered such a magical train in her life.
However, if this train wasn't mysterious enough, it wouldn't be able to travel so unhindered through this Ferocious Beast Forest.
According to what Wang Yi and the others said, this train must have appeared in this Ferocious Beast Forest many, many times, otherwise, they wouldn't be so familiar with the rules on board.
Gu Mingzhu felt as if she had discovered a new continent, utterly curious about this train.
After getting her ticket, she first walked around inside the train and found that the space inside was surprisingly spacious, even larger than the public buses within the Wall.
It just had fewer seats, only eight.
However, they were all padded with soft cushions, and the seats were quite large, with backrests for resting.
But what Gu Mingzhu found most peculiar was the menu on the small table by the train door.
This menu had attracted her attention from the very beginning. Now that she had observed the layout of the train, she quickly opened the menu.
"train exclusive water?"
Opening the first page, it only listed one item: train exclusive water, with a price of seven hundred low-grade spirit stones marked next to it.
Gu Mingzhu mumbled a few words, thinking, could the water Wang Yi came to ask about earlier be this train exclusive water?
It was just a pity that it was already sold out.
Gu Mingzhu then took the menu and flipped through it, thinking there might be something more novel on the later pages, but the rest were all blank.
"What's this? There's only one item, yet they had to make such a large menu."
She had thought there would be something else.
Putting down the menu, Gu Mingzhu walked to a seat and sat down, watching the scenery continuously flash by outside the window.
While she was observing the train, Lin Feng was also observing her.
He didn't know what was going on today, but two new passengers had arrived at once.
And one was a ferocious beast, the other a human.
It was indeed rare.
Through his Eye of Truth, Lin Feng saw Gu Mingzhu's life experiences.
Then he couldn't help but have the same thought as Wang Yi.
This girl, she's not to be provoked!
Originally, Lin Feng saw her with a small round face, beautiful but not aggressive features, coupled with a slender figure, wearing a pink dress, and speaking softly, so he thought she was an innocent and sweet little girl.
But what happened?!
Look at the things this girl has done... No wonder even Chu Yun, the City Lord with the highest martial artist rank in 155 Fortress, was afraid of her; she really could stir up trouble!
Crucially, every time, someone would fall for her tricks.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng even felt a little afraid that this girl would cause trouble for him.
But just as he thought his mouth would twitch uncontrollably, he suddenly discovered—
