Chapter 660 Bluffing



"good."

Shu'er looked at the two of them obediently. Xiangping was just wrapped in a very simple gray coat, with her hair tied into two buns and simple pigtails hanging in front of her chest, looking playful and smart. Gu Yunru tied her hair into a large pigtail and hung it in front of her chest. She wore a dark red linen cloth and looked like a peasant woman from an ordinary family. Both of them were dressed very low-key.

After returning to the yamen, Shu'er began to lose her appetite and didn't know whether her aunt and the others had reached Tianshan.

Ji Heng took the last bowl of soup and placed it on the table. Seeing Shu'er's absent-minded look, he gently patted her arm and said, "My lady, you are still thinking about the princess and the others. Don't worry, the princess is the best at adapting to circumstances."

"I hope so, but the climate over there in Tianshan is harsh, and I'm not sure if we can survive..."

When Ji Heng heard about Tianshan, he took out a booklet thoughtfully and said to her, "This is some information that Master found for me. I wanted to give it to you in advance and you would pass it on to the princess, but I didn't expect them to leave so quickly. There seems to be another tribe called the Snow Tribe on Tianshan.

They live on the Tianshan Mountains all year round, eating fish and vegetables they grow.”

"What? There really are people living in Tianshan. But I heard that the temperature there is very low, and there is no food. Just trying to keep warm is very difficult. How is it possible that there are still people living there? Could it be some monster or some evil spirit that can perform some kind of sorcery?!"

Shu'er began to have wild thoughts, and became more and more worried about whether her aunt and Xiangping could reach Tianshan safely. Even if they did, would they be eaten by the monsters? This blood clan didn't sound like a good person. If they were really evil people who ate raw meat and drank blood, then their chances of survival would be almost zero.

"It's not the blood that is shed, but the snow that is falling. The Snow Clan has lived at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains for many years and has never seen what the outside world looks like. Moreover, their place is very peaceful and tranquil. I'm afraid no strangers have ever disturbed them."

"Wait, but what is the relationship between Tian Canbing and their Snow Clan?" Shu'er tried hard to connect the Tian Canbing and the Snow Clan. She heard from her aunt that there are people living on Tianshan Mountain. If these people are really from the Snow Clan, then it means that there is some relationship between Tian Canbing and them.

"Master said that some people in their clan are good at using witchcraft, but they use it to protect their homeland, not to seize anything."

"So that's how it is. I just hope that my aunt can come back safely and nothing will go wrong!" Shu'er clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and kept chanting Namo Amitabha, hoping that they could arrive at Tianshan safely and quickly.

Five days later, Gu Yunru and Xiang Ping came to a restaurant in Luocheng. Seeing the waiter politely greet them, he put down a few coins and asked, "Waiter, I want to ask you how long it will take to get to Tianshan Mountain?"

Gu Yunru and Xiangping calculated the time as they hurried along the way. Logically, it would take them five days to reach Tianshan. However, the ancient roads were long and winding, so all their time was wasted on the journey.

"Girls, what are you doing going to Tianshan Mountain with your small bodies? I heard that it snows heavily there all year round, and people will be frozen into ice in just a few minutes!"

The waiter's words were indeed not exaggerated, but Gu Yunru had not really seen it yet, so she did not believe it. Could it be that no one dared to get close to there? A few fur merchants heard Gu Yunru's question, so they turned around curiously and looked at Gu Yunru and asked, "Are you two girls going to Tianshan?"

Xiangping's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that someone actually knew about Tianshan.

"That's right, uncle. We are going to Tianshan Mountain. We don't know which way to get there. I can clearly see the snow-capped mountain right in front of us, but my sister and I have taken many detours and still haven't reached the foot of Tianshan Mountain. What's going on?"

Luo City and Tianshan Mountain seem to be very close. When you look up, you can see the majestic snow-capped mountains standing right in front of you. However, there is still a long way to go and you don’t know when you can reach Tianshan Mountain.

"You two girls don't know that there is a city called Handan between Luocheng and Tianshan. You have to pass Handan City and walk a few miles to reach Tianshan, which is connected to Persia and has a border. We are all doing some fur business from Persia. It is rumored that there is a creature called golden bear in Tianshan. Their fur is very smooth and the royal family likes it the most. We also want to try our luck in Tianshan this time to see if we can kill this kind of golden bear."

Golden bear? Gu Yunru muttered in confusion. This kind of creature has never been seen before. It seems that it is a creature that has only become endangered in modern times. These hunting merchants like the precious fur the most, which is worth a fortune.

"How about this, uncle? My last name is Gu, and this is my sister. Just call her Xiangping. Can we travel together?"

Gu Yunru thought that if she followed these experienced merchant teams, she could save a lot of time, otherwise she and Xiangping would be like headless flies, not only wasting a lot of time, but also making themselves exhausted.

"Of course, these are my brothers, just call me Uncle Su!"

"Uncle Su..." Gu Yunru smiled politely at the few people. It was late at night. Everyone had already agreed to move forward together before dawn tomorrow and try to pass by Handan City. Then they could take some mountain roads and reach the foot of Tianshan Mountain.

Thinking of this, she felt quite excited. Gu Yunru and Xiangping slept in the same bed, but she slept at the head of the bed and Xiangping slept at the foot of the bed, so they would not interfere with each other, and they could rely on each other when they walked together.

"Xiangping, go to bed early."

"How do you know I'm not asleep yet?" Xiangping opened his eyes. He was clearly dozing off, but she still found him.

"Your breathing is the same as your breathing during the day. The frequency of a person's breathing during sleep is different from that of normal breathing. So through the frequency, I can analyze whether you are really sleeping or pretending to be sleeping. Are you worried about something?"
