"An illusion, it's all just an illusion."
Zen fled in panic.
So she didn't notice that while she was chatting and laughing with Gu Nian, she caught a glimpse of his gaze on where he was standing.
Gu Nian cried and clung to Yun Lian's hand, reluctantly giving her words of advice.
"Don't skimp on food and drink. Wherever you go, Gu's Trading Company will protect you. If you need anything, just take the jade pendant I gave you to the trading company, and they will find a way."
"You're a girl, don't always fight and kill, what if you get hurt?"
And also, you must remember to wait for me. As soon as I recover, I will come to find you, and I promise I won't hold you back anymore.
"I know, I know, young master. You've said it 800 times already. Don't follow the carriage. I really have urgent business to attend to."
Yun Lian turned around and told the driver to drive faster.
With a sharp crack, the whip struck the horse's back, and the carriage suddenly accelerated.
Gu Nian, however, still ran alongside the carriage with tears streaming down her face.
"Yun Lian, Yun Lian, you must take good care of yourself even without me. Yun Lian, how can I live without you?"
The moment Yun Lian called out, the carriage beneath her seemed to transform into a three-bedroom, one-living-room structure as she hurriedly lowered the curtain to block out all prying eyes from the outside.
In the space.
003 laughed so hard he couldn't stand up straight.
"Hahaha, Swallow, Swallow, how can I live without you? Swallow... Hahaha, you're killing me, Host, how did you end up meeting such a clown?"
Yun Lian was eating the eight-treasure melon seeds Gu Nian had prepared. Since she was being treated to a meal, she couldn't really say anything.
"San'er, your happiness is too noisy."
"Host, where do we go next? We can't really go back to that old lady who sells meat buns, can we?"
"Of course we should go find it."
If we don't go after that old woman, how can we attract the attention of the evil spirits?
The young Taoist priest often helps out at Aunt Baozi's place, and the Taoist priests from the Qingzhen Temple also occasionally go there when they come down from the mountain.
She waited patiently, and was sure she would catch that scoundrel.
"By the way, host, do you want me to tell you some good news? That little Taoist priest's worries have been reduced by 70%."
The remaining bit is just him deceiving himself. Once the opportunity arises, the young Taoist will never be able to go back.
"That's certainly good news. We haven't encountered the little fox's other enemy yet, my dear San'er. You must be able to find out where that evil path is, right?"
Honey……
Hehehe.
It is the host's beloved.
003, feeling dizzy and as if he'd drunk two kilograms of fake liquor, patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, there's nothing your dear San'er can't do!"
003 moved swiftly.
[Warning: You do not have permission to query tasks you have not yet encountered.]
003's temper flared up so easily back then.
Quickly block all possible prying eyes from the main system and quietly go to the black market to buy it with your own points.
"All done, host. That heretic is expected to arrive near the steamed bun shop in three days."
"Three days... It would take about the same time to get there by horse-drawn carriage."
I originally wanted to go back as soon as possible, but now I'm not in a hurry at all. I look around and think about how comfortable the carriage is. Not only do I not feel any bumps inside, but everything is soft and comfortable.
I was too lazy to move once I lay down on it.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
As soon as Yun Lian arrived near the steamed bun shop, 003 started screaming wildly in her mind.
"Host, host, that guy with the fan is the heretical Qingxin Daoist."
Yun Lian searched through the crowd and quickly located her target.
"What a waste of such a good-looking face. He looks decent enough, but he does terrible things."
"That's right, that's right."
Yun Lian stepped down from the carriage, making no attempt to conceal her demonic aura.
Almost the instant she appeared, Qingxin Daoist's gaze also fell upon her.
Yun Lian bought a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables and headed to the steamed bun shop.
As expected, the Taoist Qingxin landed at a distance that was neither too close nor too far behind the carriage.
Yun Lian acted as if she hadn't noticed his presence, thanking the coachman for taking her to the steamed bun shop, and then evasively told the old lady about her experiences over the past few days.
The things on the carriage almost filled the old lady's small steamed bun shop to the brim.
"Why are you spending so much money, kid? This will make you carry so many bags..."
The coachman was moved to tears when he heard that the future young mistress would have to carry heavy loads to earn money.
“Madam, you don’t need to worry. Miss Yunlian will no longer have to carry heavy bags. Our young master said that Miss Yunlian can manage the entire Gu’s Trading Company.”
If the young master knew that his sweetheart had to make a living by carrying heavy loads, I wonder how many pieces his young heart would be broken into.
He made a decision in his heart.
After returning to the manor, we must urge the young master to recover from his injuries as quickly as possible.
Along the way, they encountered bandits several times, and each time Miss Yun was like a fairy, killing the bandits until they were terrified.
Besides his wife, the woman he admired most was Miss Yun Lian.
Yun Lian quickly grabbed some of the fruits she had bought on the way and threw them into the coachman's arms.
"Go back and report to your young master. Eat some fruit to shut your mouth."
The coachman blushed, holding the apple in his mouth, reluctant to take a bite, and said cheerfully, "Miss Yun, don't worry, I'll ride as fast as I can and get to the Gu residence in a day. I'll make sure to deliver all your love and care for the young master."
As soon as the words were spoken, the person and the carriage vanished, leaving only swirling clouds of yellow sand as a reminder that a carriage had just been there.
The woman who runs the steamed bun shop took Yun Lian's hand and led her into the shop.
Unlike the smile he had given to outsiders earlier, his face now showed unease and anxiety.
"Why didn't you come back with Yichan? Was he injured?"
Yun Lian spoke in a lighthearted tone.
"After completing the mission, we went our separate ways, Auntie. Actually, my relationship with him wasn't as good as you think."
Zen's steps, which were about to enter, came to a halt.
He, whose hearing was always better than others, rushed over the moment he heard Yun Lian's voice.
The moment he saw Yun Lian arrive at the steamed bun shop, his chest felt as if a grand and dazzling firework had been set off.
He was pleasantly surprised by the explosion.
But hearing Yun Lian's words now felt like being doused with a bucket of cold water.
The old woman inside looked worried and asked in a low voice.
"How could the two of you not get along? I've never seen Yichan care about anyone to this extent. Yunlian, that boy doesn't know how to talk, so don't take it to heart."
He was raised by the old Taoist priest on the mountain, so how would he know how to get along with delicate and gentle girls?
I can tell that you are very special to him.
Yun Lian patted her hand to comfort her, her eyes filled with melancholy.
“Auntie, no matter how special we are, the distance between us is farther than the Milky Way. We are destined not to be together. It’s better for us to separate.”
"Sigh, you young people, don't wait until you miss out to regret it."
Yun Lian's voice was choked with sobs, her gaze blankly fixed ahead, and the tear that slid down her cheek was keenly noticed by Qingxin Daoist.
