If you take the official road from Puzhou to Baiyue, it will take two days and one night.
However, to conceal their whereabouts, Lu Shiyan did arrange for carriages to travel along the official roads. Instead, he led Jiang Tangtang over mountains and valleys to take a shortcut.
Jiang Tangtang was a little angry that he had been acting crazy these past two days, always with a sour face, as if someone owed him money and hadn't paid it back.
But the journey from Puzhou to Baiyue would take her through many mountains and rivers she had never been before, so she happily opened the scanning system.
So, this situation arose when Lu Shiyan was traveling with Jiang Tangtang.
Jiang Tangtang hugged his neck tightly and said with delight, "Husband, there is a Ganoderma lucidum on the opposite cliff. Please help me pick it."
She leaned close to his ear and said, "Husband, there's a huge nest of mountain eggs over there. We can pick them up for a snack later."
...
Anyway, he didn't show any surprise when he found out that he had a space, and even cooperated with me to keep it a secret. He was also very sensible and didn't ask any more questions.
Jiang Tangtang is now very relaxed in front of him. She scans any medicinal herbs or food she finds on the road and asks him to bring them to her space.
As their journey continued, Jiang Tangtang accumulated more and more items in her spatial storage, making her increasingly happy, while Lu Shiyan's face grew increasingly sour.
He'd been like this for days, so Jiang Tangtang didn't care anymore and just did whatever made her happy.
She treated this trip to Baiyue as a leisurely sightseeing trip. Besides moving things into her spatial dimension like a treasure hunt, she also took the time to admire the beautiful scenery and handsome men.
At this moment, Lu Shiyan had just helped her dig up a precious herb, and the two were resting on a rock.
Looking at the towering cliffs opposite her, and then at the handsome man beside her who, even with a sour face, was still incredibly good-looking, Jiang Tangtang was in a very good mood.
Whenever she's in a good mood, her old habit kicks in and she wants to flirt with handsome men.
However, as soon as she reached out her hand, it was ruthlessly slapped back by someone.
Jiang Tangtang rolled her eyes at him and said with dissatisfaction, "You weren't like this in the cave that day."
As she spoke, she reached out again and touched his face, saying, "I am your wife, this is my legal right."
Although both of them knew that the other was not the original body, they did not expose it and continued to pretend to be husband and wife. Jiang Tangtang deliberately pretended to be confused and pretended that the two of them were husband and wife.
Lu Shiyan looked at her without saying a word, only staring at her with his unfathomable eyes.
Meeting those deep eyes, Jiang Tangtang's heart started to race.
Lu Shiyan reached out and grabbed her waist, pulling her closer to him. "If you have no heart, don't bother me."
He hadn't focused on romance before, so he probably didn't understand or see what she was thinking.
But now... you can see a bit of it.
This woman constantly teases him, seemingly deeply in love, but more often than not, she treats him like a gigolo in a brothel, simply wanting to mess around with him.
Jiang Tangtang felt a little guilty, but stubbornly said, "What do you mean there's no heart? Why don't you touch it?"
Lu Shiyan ignored her.
He released his grip, stood up, and said, "Let's go!"
Jiang Tangtang stood still, "I'm scared!"
Lu Shiyan resignedly squatted down.
When Jiang Tangtang climbed onto his back, she angrily smacked his face.
I felt smug after touching it.
I don't know what's going on.
Even if I don't let her touch me, I still have to carry her on my back.
And sure enough, he still managed to touch it.
Thinking to myself, I smugly patted his face again.
Lu Shiyan suddenly stopped, pressed her against the cliff face, and almost viciously sealed her lips with his.
Although it was a bit too wild, it was still quite exciting to passionately kiss the handsome little fairy on the edge of a cliff hundreds of feet high.
But as his actions became increasingly outrageous, Jiang Tangtang finally panicked.
Although she had previously followed in her bastard father's footsteps and kept male models as mistresses, she was actually nothing more than a paper tiger with a lot of show and no substance.
She bit him hard and pushed him away forcefully. Lu Shiyan pressed her down, his eyes slightly lowered.
At this moment, she was like a peach blossom bud about to bloom, breathtakingly beautiful.
Her eyelashes fluttered, like a pitiful little rabbit that had been bullied.
Lu Shiyan originally wanted to punish her severely, but seeing her like this, he suddenly softened.
He released her and said in a hoarse voice, "Be good."
Jiang Tangtang really didn't dare to provoke him this time. She had clearly sensed just now that he genuinely wanted to do something.
For the rest of the trip, Jiang Tangtang behaved very well.
As darkness fell, the two arrived at the mountain closest to Baiyue.
Lu Shiyan did not rush into the city, but instead found a cave to rest.
Jiang Tangtang took out the pancakes she had baked earlier, as well as the wild fruits she had picked along the way, to share. After eating, she took out a straw mat that she had placed in her spatial storage beforehand and laid it on the ground.
Jiang Tangtang placed a pillow on the straw mat and pretended to sleep.
Although they had traveled all day, Lu Shiyan carried her using his lightness skill, so she wasn't actually tired.
She can't sleep at all right now.
She was just feeling confused and didn't know how to face Lu Shiyan.
Lu Shiyan took out the insect repellent packet he had prepared earlier and hung it in the cave.
They checked the cave again, going back and forth once more.
In fact, he had already checked the cave thoroughly before entering it, making sure there were no snakes or insects before bringing Jiang Tangtang inside.
He checked again to make sure there were no insects in the cave and that it was safe before saying to Jiang Tangtang, "You rest first, I'm going out for a bit."
Jiang Tangtang instantly forgot her feigned sleep and sat up abruptly. "Where are you going?"
"I'll go and scout ahead first," Lu Shiyan said. "Don't worry, I've checked the cave and even hung insect-repelling herbs. There won't be any snakes, insects, or rodents."
He deliberately chose a cave halfway up a cliff, a place most people couldn't climb. Jiang Tangtang was relatively safe inside.
However, seeing her looking at him uneasily, he still whispered a promise: "I will be back as soon as possible."
Jiang Tangtang knew that his previous gathering of information would be helpful for their entry into the city the next day. She nodded, suppressing her unease.
Lu Shiyan patted her head and almost softened his heart and changed his mind, taking her with him.
But in the end, he managed to hold back.
After Lu Shiyan left, Jiang Tangtang couldn't sleep at all. She felt that even the mountain breeze had an eerie quality to it.
To lessen her fear, Jiang Tangtang opened the book and checked her score with the system. [Am I about to complete the task? I feel like the little immortal lord has been incredibly passionate and devoted to me lately.]
System: [No!]
"No?" Jiang Tangtang exclaimed in surprise, "He clearly..."
Is it really as the internet says, that men separate sex and love? Is what Little Fairy was experiencing today a side effect of something? Or did he fall into the mortal world and go astray?
