"This is a request!"
Black Sparrow gritted his teeth.
Su Qing couldn't help but frown: "You're going a bit too far. There are clearly three requirements, how can you say it's just one?"
"I don't care, this is just one request, otherwise you won't get any information out of me!"
With the leverage to negotiate, Black Sparrow became much more assertive.
"Okay, okay!"
Su Qing waved her hand helplessly: "Continue."
"My second request is that you let me leave."
Su Qing thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay!"
At worst, we can just bring her back. There aren't many of them anyway, so why bother?
The guy agreed too readily, which aroused Black Sparrow's suspicion. After thinking for a moment, he decided to play it safe: "I'll tell you about the third request when I think of it."
Su Qing readily agreed.
"First, there's the desert. The climate there is extremely abnormal. Every three months, there are sandstorms that last for more than a month. Unfortunately, it's impossible to pass through at this time of year."
"Legend has it that even a glorious-level expert got lost in that desert during a sandstorm and disappeared completely."
Black Sparrow said, "As for the second route, it requires crossing the borders of many countries, some of which are hostile to each other and prohibit passage."
To take this path, unless you intend to cut through it all at once, you'll need at least two or three months and take a very long detour.
"The third path is fraught with uncertainty. Powerful magical beasts roam the mountains and wilderness, and some ascetics cultivate in the dense forests. Among them are many powerful figures who are not to be trifled with."
After hearing what Black Sparrow said, Su Qing looked at her indifferently.
After all that talk, the conclusion is that none of the three paths are viable, so what use are you to me!
Noticing the unfriendly look in his eyes, Black Sparrow quickly said, "Of course, there are other ways."
"The sandstorm in the desert is expected to subside in about ten days. We have found a suitable route between the second and third routes. We will take this route initially, and then take the first route after the sandstorm subsides."
Su Qing took out the map, gestured to it, and realized that the method the woman had suggested was feasible.
He started from where he was standing and slowly slid his finger across the ground.
First, travel several hundred miles eastward, leaving this small principality, and you will enter a mountain range. Beyond the mountain range lies another country.
After passing through this country, follow a river downstream, then walk south for hundreds of miles, pass through two dense forests, and you will enter the desert. After passing through the desert, you will enter the Chaotic Territory.
It looks a bit complicated, but in fact this route is shorter than the other three routes.
It should only take about twenty days to travel.
Of course, this applies to traveling by horse-drawn carriage.
Seeing Su Qing nod, Black Sparrow seized the opportunity to speak: "I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now!"
Su Qing watched the other person leave without saying a word to stop them; all good things must come to an end.
Black Sparrow hurried along until the carriage was out of sight, then he breathed a sigh of relief, a slight smile creeping onto his lips.
"You fatso, I'll make sure you regret this!"
"Who do you want to sleep with?"
A voice suddenly interrupted, and Black Sparrow jumped, looking up to see a carriage in front of her. The driver was a fat man wrapped in red, who was smiling at her.
"Beautiful lady, are you looking for the fat man in black, the fat man in blue, or me, the fat man in red?"
"You promised to let me go?"
Black Sparrow spoke with a stern face: "You are a liar, you are shameless, you are despicable, you are vile."
Su Qing shook her head: "They promised to let you go, but they didn't say they wouldn't bring you back. Besides, the one who promised to let you go was a fat guy in blue, while I'm a fat guy in red. Don't confuse the two of us."
His words were so confident and assertive that Black Sparrow almost vomited blood.
She was quickly thrown onto a carriage and dragged away in a huff.
Inside the carriage, she gritted her teeth and said, "Don't forget, I still have one more request to make!"
Su Qing smiled and said, "I have more than a dozen clothes in different colors."
"You broke your promise!"
...
Accusations continued to emanate from inside the carriage, but Su Qing ignored them and continued driving.
The ground beneath our feet was no longer a concrete road. The gravel road was quite bumpy to walk on.
By the time they rested in the evening, Black Sparrow's bottom had swollen up while sitting in the carriage.
Su Qing felt sorry for the other person and wanted to rub it for them, but she almost got chopped to death.
"Good intentions are wasted!"
Su Qing muttered something about how people's hearts have changed, and then lay down on the ground to admire the moon.
This was a relatively flat area of sand and gravel. The horses were tied to wooden stakes, the carriage was placed to one side, and Black Sparrow lay in the carriage, quietly waiting for the opportunity to escape.
She would run away as soon as the fat man fell asleep.
The path she pointed out to Su Qing was basically fine; under other circumstances, it would just be an ordinary shortcut.
But according to the new information she has learned, the path she is on now will lead to unexpected surprises later on.
She didn't want to suffer with this guy.
Time passed slowly, and it was probably already midnight. The fat man should be asleep by now!
Despite the redness and swelling on her buttocks, Hei Que stood up, lifted the curtain, and saw Su Qing watching her with interest: "Why aren't you resting!"
Black Sparrow was startled and plopped down on the ground. After realizing what had happened, she was annoyed and asked, "What are you doing?"
"I didn't peep!"
Su Qing felt she should explain the issue first, otherwise people would misunderstand her as having no character.
But it would have been better if he hadn't said anything. Black Sparrow had just felt a red and swollen bottom, but since he had taken off some clothes, his face immediately turned bright red with embarrassment. He kicked Su Qing away, yelling, "You shameless person!"
