Abyss Walker

Chapter 375 The Endless Journey (Part 1)

Yun Muhan and You Qiuna's low profile and caution allowed them to successfully blend into the town.

Once they entered the town, they immediately blended into the bustling market crowds.

The market was filled with the sounds of vendors hawking their wares and haggling over prices. A wide variety of goods were on display, from fresh fruit to handicrafts.

The vendors enthusiastically solicited customers, who then selected the goods they needed from the various stalls.

Yun Muhan and You Qiuna weaved through the crowd, their eyes wary, yet also drawn to the bustling market.

The bustling and vibrant market made them feel a little relaxed, but at the same time, they did not relax their observation of the surrounding environment.

The two walked through the crowd, keeping an eye out for anyone following them or paying special attention to them. Their goal was to pass through town discreetly, but they were also prepared for any unexpected situations.

You Qiuna and Yun Muhan weaved through the crowd, their sharp eyes scanning every corner of the market, searching for possible means of transportation.

In a corner of the market, they spotted a carriage about to depart, with the driver loading goods onto it in preparation for its journey.

You Qiuna stepped forward and spoke to the driver, her voice gentle yet persuasive, trying to convince him to give them a ride.

Her posture was neither urgent nor humble, but rather conveyed sincerity and urgency in just the right way.

Yun Muhan observed from the side, his eyes alert, ready to respond to any possible situation. His hand rested lightly on his baggage, just in case.

He knew that in such a public place, any minor conflict could attract unnecessary attention, so he kept a low profile but was ready to take action at any time.

After some negotiation, the driver agreed to let them ride, but asked them to pay a certain fee.

Yun Muhan quickly paid the fare; his actions were swift and decisive, without any hesitation.

The two quickly boarded the carriage and hid among the cargo to avoid being discovered.

Their movements were swift and skillful, and they quickly found a hiding place among the goods.

The carriage began to move slowly, leaving the market and heading out of the city.

As the carriage swayed rhythmically, they began to relax, preparing to take a short rest during the journey.

The carriage carried them away from the bustling market and the town, heading towards an unknown distance.

The carriage moved forward on the bumpy road, the hustle and bustle of the city gradually fading away, replaced by the quiet sound of the wind in the fields and the occasional birdsong from afar.

Yun Muhan and You Qiu hid among the cargo. Although the space was cramped, they still managed to find a relatively comfortable position so that they could recover their strength during the journey.

As the carriage moved further away from the town, their mood gradually relaxed.

Yun Muhan whispered to You Qiuna, "We're safe for now, but we can't let our guard down. Who knows if those forces will catch up with us?"

You Qiuna nodded, her voice tinged with wariness: "Yes, we need to remain vigilant until we reach our destination."

The rhythmic swaying of the carriage was drowsy, but neither of them dared to let their guard down completely.

They took turns resting, while one person rested and the other remained alert, keeping an eye on what was happening outside.

Yun Muhan took out some dry food and water from his bag and said softly to You Qiuna, "Eat something to replenish your strength."

You Qiuna accepted the food, thanked her softly, and the two ate a simple meal under the cover of the goods. Despite the simple environment, she didn't mind at all.

As time passed, the carriage finally left the farmland and entered a dense forest.

Sunlight filtered through the treetops, casting dappled shadows inside the carriage.

The cool forest air invigorated the two men, and they knew they had left the town and entered a more secluded area.

Yun Muhan whispered to You Qiuna, "When we reach the next town, we need to be careful, find new transportation, and also inquire about the nearest routes and news."

You Qiuna agreed to the plan, her eyes gleaming with determination: "We will find a safe route to ensure our secret arrives at its destination safely."

As the carriage wound its way through the forest, the branches and leaves of the trees formed a natural barrier, blocking most of the sunlight and making the forest path somewhat dim.

Yun Muhan and You Qiuna listened quietly to the sounds outside from inside the cargo, alerting them to any unusual noise.

You Qiuna said softly, "We need to be prepared to deal with any unexpected situations. There are more wild animals than just wild beasts in the forest."

Yun Muhan nodded, his hand lightly touching the hilt of Dugu Jian, ready to deal with any potential threats. "We cannot let our guard down, especially in such a remote place."

The carriage continued to bump along, and time slipped away unnoticed.

As the sun gradually set, the light in the forest grew dimmer.

The coachman stopped in a relatively open area, intending to spend the night there.

Yun Muhan and You Qiuna heard the coachman preparing to set up the tent and start a fire, and they knew this was an opportunity.

They planned to wait until nightfall, then leave the carriage while the driver was busy and continue their journey.

As night falls, the sounds of various nocturnal animals fill the forest, adding a touch of mystery and vitality to the nighttime landscape.

The coachman was busy around the campfire preparing dinner, his attention focused on his work, unaware of the commotion around him.

Under the cover of night, Yun Muhan and You Qiuna quietly left the carriage.

Their movements were light and swift, like ghosts in the night, without making a sound.

The two of them found a secluded spot in the forest that offered both shelter and a view of their surroundings, making it an ideal place to rest and make plans.

Yun Muhan checked his surroundings to make sure he wasn't being followed. His sharp eyes swept over every tree and bush, searching for any possible threat or anomaly.

He listened carefully to the sounds around him, trying to discern from the calls of nocturnal animals whether other humans were approaching.

You Qiuna was preparing a temporary campsite on the side. Her movements were skilled and swift, and she quickly set up a simple shelter.

The two settled down in this secluded place, but they knew that although they had left the carriage, their journey was far from over; it was clearly an endless one.

“We’ll rest here tonight and set off again early tomorrow morning,” he said in a low voice.

You Qiuna nodded, her gaze sweeping through the darkness to ensure their safety. "We need to remain hidden until we find a safer mode of transportation."

The two spent a quiet night in the forest.

The next morning, as the first rays of sunlight pierced through the tree canopy, they began their new journey.

They carefully avoided the main roads and chose to travel through the forest to reduce the risk of being discovered.

The two of them continued deeper into the forest, searching for possible routes and means of transportation.

"Speaking of which, fairy, where...are we going?"

"I don't know either! But...aren't you curious? If we keep going, will we be able to reach the mysterious realm?"
