Chapter 78: Grove City
The next day.
Gu Han was still dressed in green, with long white hair neatly draped behind his head, and he looked very elegant.
His height has been fixed now, 188cm tall, which is not tall in the fantasy world, but not short either. Anyway, Gu Han is quite satisfied with his height. It is not good to be too tall, after all, it will make you look like a big fool.
Not too long, Bibi Dong came out of the Saint's Hall, wearing a light pink dress, with a slim figure, a little light makeup on her face, and a white lily headdress on her wine-red hair, which added a bit of brightness.
It was like a fairy from the ninth heaven descending to the earth, turning into the most beautiful elf in the world.
Gu Han was a little absent-minded for a while. Although Bibi Dong used to be very beautiful without makeup, now that she was obviously dressed up carefully, it instantly made his heart beat faster.
"Senior sister, you..."
Bibi Dong saw Gu Han staring at her blankly, and she was delighted. She showed a playful smile on her face, and stretched out her white and slender fingers to lightly touch Gu Han's forehead.
"Why are you in a daze? Let's set off quickly."
It should be said that the soul masters of Douluo Continent grow really fast. Getting a soul ring is like premature maturity. Bibi Dong, a five-ring soul king, is already 177 cm tall at this time, only half a head shorter than Gu Han.
Bibi Dong walked in front with her skirt swaying, and jumped onto the carriage.
This carriage is not the kind of flying soul beast that Soul Douluo has, but ordinary horses of excellent quality.
"Junior brother, come on over quickly."
Bibi Dong sat on the edge of the carriage, smiled and waved to Gu Han, who was a little dazed.
Gu Han came back to his senses, reached out and touched his forehead, and a warm smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"I'm here."
Gu Han sat on the other side of the carriage and took the reins. Seeing that Bibi Dong had no intention of getting in, he asked, "Senior sister, aren't you going to get in?"
Bibi Dong pursed her lips and said, "I'm not that delicate, and I can enjoy the scenery on the road from outside."
Seeing this, Gu Han said nothing more and drove away from Spirit City.
Now both of them are five-ring soul kings, and they can be regarded as small masters in the entire continent.
Therefore, Qian Xunji has now given them a free-range education. If they don't understand, he will take care of them. If they don't ask, he won't ask. At most, he will send masters to protect them in secret to avoid encountering the existence of soul saints who don't follow martial ethics.
Coconut Grove City is not far from Spirit City. If you drive non-stop, it will only take one day to reach it.
However, there are still several days before the lantern craze. The two did not rush to go there, but walked and stopped on the road, playing while heading to the destination.
It took four days for the two to finally arrive at Coconut Grove City.
The two of them timed it right. When they entered the city, it was already night. The streets were already bustling. Many young men and women could be seen chatting and laughing on the streets. The whole city was full of youthful vitality.
Bibi Dong's eyes were bright and she looked around with curiosity.
Her eyes were fixed on a row of small boats on the river bank. She pulled Gu Han's arm with a little excitement.
"Junior brother, let's go boating."
"Okay."
Gu Han nodded and gave the vendor a gold soul coin, refusing the other party's offer to help row the boat. Gu Han took the long pole alone and rowed the boat away from the river.
On the riverbed, there were many slowly floating lotus lanterns. The lights shone through the thin paper, emitting a soft and warm halo, outlining pieces of golden light and shadow on the water.
The river flowed slowly, carrying these lotus lanterns downstream, carrying them farther and farther away. The twinkling lights gradually merged with the night, like a dream, like a beautiful painting, making people immersed in this romantic and mysterious atmosphere.
Bibi Dong knelt on the bow, reached out and scooped up a lotus lantern from the water, placed it in front of her and looked at it for a while, then put it back into the water.
"Junior brother, it's so beautiful here."
"Yeah."
Gu Han nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Senior sister, we are here."
At this time, the two had arrived at the most lively place in Coconut Grove City. Gu Han stopped the boat and handed it over to the boatman waiting at the terminal.
Bibi Dong stood by the boat and stretched out her jade-white slender hand to Gu Han.
Gu Han smiled and slowly stretched out his hand. His hand was slender and even, with distinct joints on his fingers, just right to show the man's sense of strength, without losing the elegant lines.
Although the two had practiced swords for many years, they did not grow calluses on their hands. On the contrary, they were as warm and soft as carefully carved jade.
Gu Han grabbed Bibi Dong's outstretched hand and pulled her ashore with a slight pull.
"It's so beautiful~"
Bibi Dong's eyes were bright.
The colorful lanterns were hung all over the streets and alleys, making the whole world look like a dream.
Bibi Dong trotted on the street, bypassing one person after another, the corner of her skirt fluttering slightly with her steps, and she turned around and waved to Gu Han from time to time.
The girl's pretty face was filled with a bright smile. She came to a stall selling masks and picked up a golden mask. The mask only covered the upper half of the face, like a phoenix, with a phoenix tail sculpture on the right.
She turned around, smiled sweetly, and handed the mask to Gu Han.
"Junior brother, try it on."
"Okay."
Gu Han smiled and nodded. Putting this exquisitely crafted mask on his face, Gu Han's originally bright features immediately added a bit of mysterious coldness.
Under the mask, the deep eyes slightly stared at the girl, and with the warm smile at the corner of her mouth, a faint blush climbed up on the girl's fair cheeks.
But soon, the girl turned her eyes away and muttered, "Junior brother, please choose one for me too."
Gu Han nodded slightly, and his eyes swept over all the masks one by one, and finally fixed on a rabbit mask. I remember that Senior Sister likes cute little animals like rabbits, so let's take this one.
Bibi Dong was speechless when she saw Gu Han chose a rabbit mask that only children would wear. Her eyes twitched slightly.
"What? Junior brother, you are too... rustic. I am not a child anymore."
"Uh, sorry, how about this one?"
Gu Han also realized this. Although Bibi Dong was not very old at this time, she could be considered an 18 or 19-year-old girl in her previous life in terms of both her figure and mental age.
This rabbit mask was indeed not suitable for her. She smiled awkwardly and immediately picked up a silver fox mask from the stall.
"Hmph, forget it, a rabbit is a rabbit."
Unexpectedly, Bibi Dong puffed up her cheeks slightly, half-worn the rabbit mask on her forehead, and smiled playfully.
"How about it, does it look good?"
"Senior sister is beautiful, and she looks good in anything she wears."
"Tsk, what a corny compliment."
Bibi Dong was happy in her heart, but on the surface she pouted her lips in disdain, and then she was attracted by the flower candies on the opposite stall.
