When he sat down, Su Yuanyuan took out the map. Although this was from later generations, it shouldn’t be too different.
The two found the place where the Boundary Stone was earlier. "Look, this should be the path they took."
Su Yuanyuan pointed at the map to show Tan Shaoting.
"Let’s take this path too. This road has been traveled before, and following the map will be safer for us."
Tan Shaoting nodded, his eyes fixated on the map, noticing the date on it.
However, he didn’t ntion it, nor did he show any reaction.
"Okay, I’ve rembered. Let’s wait until tomorrow to head out."
It wasn’t that they feared them, but during the standoff with that man earlier, he realized that those more than ten people were all ard.
Tan Shaoting thought about going back this ti, he must gather more weapons, anyway, he wasn’t worried about having nowhere to store them.
"Alright, it’s indeed not very safe at night." Even with Divine Sense, it would be limited.
The two of them sat there drinking milk tea. No one ntioned Ruan Lingyu’s affairs; in their hearts, she was just a passerby, soone who wouldn’t leave a deep impression.
"If I don’t gain much this ti, I’d feel quite at a loss."
"Don’t worry, there’s plenty of ti."
"Once this side is sorted, we’ll be at the Emperor’s great distance; the most important thing is to et those two people first."
If not, there would always be an uneasy feeling.
This ti, Tan Shaoting objected, "Let’s take about ten days to gather what you like first, then head over. Otherwise, if sothing happens, there won’t be ti."
"Okay, I love it this way." Su Yuanyuan’s eyes curved with a smile, as if seeing countless top-grade Jade stones waving at her.
"Yuanyuan, I have a Spell that can change our appearance and figure."
Su Yuanyuan looked at Tan Shaoting, knowing that he hadn’t ntioned it for so long, there must be side effects.
"What will it do?"
"It won’t affect the body? But it’ll take three months to revert back."
Su Yuanyuan laughed, "Great, that’s fine. Teach then."
This was exactly what Tan Shaoting intended, to take advantage of the ti to learn now, so they could leave tomorrow.
Su Yuanyuan learned quickly, and when she felt she was proficient enough, she imagined the faces she had seen on TV before, transforming herself into a boy.
Being tall and slim, she didn’t have any female features. So transforming into a boy suited her quite well.
Then she took out scissors from the space, cut her hair with snips. This definitely wouldn’t do.
Tan Shaoting watched her actions, frowning disapprovingly as she cut her hair.
Su Yuanyuan then took out an electric razor, "Tan Shaoting, let teach you how to use an electric razor, you can shave my hair."
"It’s already quite short."
"Not enough. Co, I’ll show you."
Learning this was no issue for Tan Shaoting; he learned it quickly.
Then Tan Shaoting spread out a large piece of cloth on the ground, let Su Yuanyuan sit on it, and shaved her head.
After she finished, Su Yuanyuan looked in a mirror, smiling as she did so; even to herself, she wouldn’t be able to recognize her. Perfect, unexpectedly, this short hair looked quite good. Just not very accustod to it, too uncomfortable.
"Tan Shaoting, do you want to shave your head? I can help you."
"Sure, I want the sa hairstyle as yours."
Su Yuanyuan grinned, "If you want a different hairstyle, I can’t do it."
When two similar-looking boys appeared, they both laughed.
Tan Shaoting carefully packed the cloth away. Being a cultivator from ancient tis, he paid special attention to parts of his body; he wouldn’t leave his hair lying around.
Su Yuanyuan didn’t care about such things; she was now busy looking for clothes.
She also found clothes made from denim, fitting perfectly now.
The fabric was thick, offering so protection from mosquito bites.
She turned to Tan Shaoting’s back. She turned around and took off her outer clothes and found them fitting well when she put on the new ones.
She specifically made them large last year, and now they fit perfectly.
By that ti, Tan Shaoting had tidied up. Being a gentleman, he didn’t turn around.
When Su Yuanyuan turned around, she handed him denim clothing, "Change into this too. It might get hot, but at least it won’t get bitten."
Tan Shaoting took the clothes without hesitation, turning around to change.
Su Yuanyuan retrieved two fisherman hats, gloves, and two pairs of hiking boots from the space. Fortunately, there were n’s size 44; otherwise, there’d be none for Tan Shaoting.
Tan Shaoting put on the socks and shoes, figuring these would be their future gear, feeling very pleased. Thus, the two were fully equipped.
Finally, each had a cross-body bag, avoiding backpacks, which were too conspicuous.
Although the hiking boots were quite different too, now with rubber shoes, they could only cover them up.
Su Yuanyuan looked at Tan Shaoting’s outfit, giving a thumbs up, "Not bad, very good."
Su Yuanyuan was not quite 1.6 ters tall now; her voice could pass as either male or female.
Once all was set, they left; this place was more dangerous than there. It was safer on the other side.
The two arrived at the Boundary Stone. Resting at one side.
Su Yuanyuan took out a piece of cloth to spread on the ground, then took out two cushions, so fruits, and snacks.
"We’re having an outdoor picnic."
Tan Shaoting just smiled at her as she set it up, sitting on the cushion, tasting fruits he had never seen, finding the flavor quite nice.
"Where do you think that group of people went?"
"Who knows, they should be quite familiar with the terrain."
"Hehe, even if they encountered us, they wouldn’t recognize us."
"That’s for the best, if they bear ill intentions, they can’t bla ."
"Hehe, here’s to hoping they’re keen-eyed."
Su Yuanyuan, having rested enough, took a mat to lie down. Not having slept last night, she was now sleepy.
Tan Shaoting saw Su Yuanyuan’s actions, then took out a peach-printed quilt to cover her. Then he sat beside her, ditating for Cultivation.
Su Yuanyuan was asleep for two hours before waking groggily, having overslept a bit. She felt a bit uncomfortable; she drank a cup of Spiritual Spring Water, feeling much better.
"Shall we set up a tent at night?"
Tan Shaoting shook his head, "Better not, let’s leave it like this. It’s not cold, avoid unnecessary trouble." If really seen by others, it would be troubleso. Now what they needed the most was to keep a low profile.
Su Yuanyuan didn’t mind; she could go either way. At worst, she could ditate for Cultivation at night.
