Also, many thanks to everyone who bought me coffee (*≧∀≦*)

Even if he used his toe to think, Xiao Heng could guess that this new admission letter must be for Gu Jiao.

"Why didn't you bring out JiaoJiao's admission letter earlier?"

If this little monk weren't only five years old, he would have suspected this guy was doing it on purpose!

Little Jing Kong protested innocently, "You didn't ask!"

"Isn't that because..." You fell asleep? The more Xiao Heng thought about it, the more irritated he became, "Why didn't you just put JiaoJiao's documents with ours?"

Little Jing Kong retorted confidently, "Of course, JiaoJiao's things can't be mixed with you stinky men's!"

Xiao Heng scoffed, "Heh, you make it sound like you're not one of us."

Little Jing Kong looked stunned.

Uh... Seemed like he just insulted himself...

Xiao Heng looked at the beautifully written admission letter, with a delicate pink lotus flower made of silk yarn at the end. His whole person felt uncomfortable!

……

The State of Yan was to the west of the State of Zhao, separated by the Yanshui River.

Gu Jiao, holding several people's admission documents and the customs clearance token given by Grandaunt, rented a boat to cross the border of the State of Zhao.

There were five of them on this journey, besides her and Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun, Lady Nan and Master Lu were also accompanying them.

Gu Jiao still hadn’t asked much about the origins of the two people, but one thing was clear to her: they traveled thousands of miles for Gu Yan.

"Alright, let's eat something. We'll be landing in half an hour." Lady Nan said.

They rented a large canopy boat, with beds and tables inside the canopy, and with curtains down, it looked like a small cabin. At this moment, except for Master Lu observing the situation outside, the other four were inside the canopy.

It was worth mentioning that since they left the capital of the State of Zhao, Lady Nan and Master Lu stopped speaking Zhao language. They communicated with each other and with Gu Jiao's group in the language of the State of Yan.

From the initial confusion of the three, Gu Jiao and her brothers could now communicate in Yan language with ease.

"Okay." Gu Jiao replied in Yan language, "There’s no more jerky, but there's some other snacks left. Let's make do with that for now. Xiaoshun!"

"Yes, big sis!" Gu Xiaoshun replied.

"Speak in Yan language." Lady Nan reminded.

Gu Xiaoshun scratched his head awkwardly, "Oh, got it."

Gu Jiao opened the food box and had Gu Xiaoshun take a package of snacks to Master Lu.

Then she put the remaining snacks on a large plate and placed it on the table.

She looked at Gu Yan leaning against her back and asked, "How do you feel? Seasick?"

Gu Yan shook his head a bit, his pale lips moving slightly, "Not seasick."

Gu Jiao reached out to touch his forehead.

Since he was rescued last time, Gu Yan woke up the night after, but his body was far from recovered, always weak and feeble.

Every time Gu Jiao saw Gu Yan like this, she would recall Nangong Li, who vented his anger on him with a palm strike.

That’s right. After learning about the appearance and figure of the other party from Gu Yan, Gu Jiao could already confirm that the madman was Nangong Li.

Gu Yan just accidentally bumped into him, and yet he vented his anger by severely injuring Gu Yan.

Did he know that with that single palm strike, even if Gu Yan didn't have a heart condition, he would still be bedridden for half a month at home?

Not to mention, it was he who suddenly sneaked into the academy, causing Gu Yan to bump into him.

How could this person be so unreasonable?

But then again, if he were reasonable, he wouldn't have gone secretly to the State of Zhao to assassinate people.

Gu Jiao fed Gu Yan a piece of snack, but when she tried to offer a second one, Gu Yan turned his head away and refused.

"Have some water." Gu Jiao didn't force him to eat.

After Gu Yan drank two sips of warm water, he fell asleep leaning on Gu Jiao's back.

They had to walk a distance on foot after landing.

Gu Jiao carried Gu Yan off the boat.

Lady Nan led the way with Master Lu and Gu Xiaoshun carrying luggage and weapons behind.

Gu Yan lay on his sister's back weakly saying, "I can walk by myself."

Gu Jiao's steps were determined, "No need, I'll carry you."

I'm not tired.

As long as I'm carrying you, I won’t be tired no matter how far we walk.

Under the scorching sun, Gu Jiao, clad in a young man’s attire, sweated profusely as she carried Gu Yan on her back. Several times, Lady Nan offered to take her place, but Gu Jiao refused.

At the immigration checkpoint, although there were many people, the reputation of Tianqiong Academy was too great. As soon as the officials saw the stack of ink-blue admission letters, their attitudes changed. They processed their procedures separately and issued them a travel pass within the State of Yan.

The group successfully set foot on the territory of the State of Yan.

The customs and culture of the State of Yan were quite different from those of the State of Zhao, but along the way, everyone was too busy taking care of Gu Yan to admire the scenery.

After a month of travel by boat and carriage, they finally arrived at the last post station near Shengdu on a late afternoon.

Shengdu, the imperial capital of the State of Yan.

Gu Jiao's group used two carriages, with Gu Jiao, Gu Xiaoshun, and Master Lu taking turns driving.

After arriving at the post station, Gu Jiao jumped down from the carriage.

Lady Nan opened the curtain, and with the help of Master Lu, she got down from the carriage.

After traveling for two full months, it was already the fifth month in the lunar calendar, and the weather was hot. Everyone was soaked with sweat, even the weakened Gu Yan sweated a lot inside the carriage.

While wiping her sweat, Lady Nan said to Gu Jiao, "Take a rest, I'll go arrange the rooms."

"I'm not tired." Gu Jiao replied.

"You stubborn child." Lady Nan looked at her sweating profusely and took out a clean handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her forehead and neck.

Gu Xiaoshun called the staff at the post station to take care of the horses and then went to the lobby to request three rooms.

The post stations in the State of Yan were generally larger and the rooms were more exquisite compared to those in the State of Zhao, although, admittedly, the prices were higher.

The currency in the State of Yan mainly consisted of silver and knife coins. Knife coins were actually copper coins made in the shape of small knives, engraved with the emblem of the State of Yan.

The value of one knife coin was approximately equal to three copper coins.

In the State of Zhao, a steamed bun cost one copper coin, while in the State of Yan, it cost one knife coin.

From this, it could be seen that prices in the State of Yan were higher than those in the State of Zhao.

There were no cross-country banks within the six states, but fortunately, gold and silver could be exchanged anywhere. After entering the State of Yan, they exchanged several boxes of gold into silver banknotes and deposited them into the largest bank in the State of Yan, also exchanging silver into the official currency of the State of Yan.

Naturally, there was a hefty processing fee.

Gu Jiao carried Gu Yan to the second-floor room, with Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun sharing one room, Lady Nan and Master Lu sharing another, and Gu Jiao alone in one room.

Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun's room was in the middle.

Dinner was served in Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun's room.

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:

Description:

In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.

When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.

The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.

From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.

***

Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.

After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, "Scared?"

Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!"

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, "The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?"

Shi Dai replied, "Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!"

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, "Don't abandon me, alri—”

Shi Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
