Zhu Yu can quickly fall asleep and rejuvenate her spirit anywhere when she's tired, even if it's on a bumpy stone road.
However, now she was lying on the thick grass mat that the talisman had prepared for her beforehand, soft, dry, and warm, covered with a warm cloak, yet she couldn't fall asleep at all.
Her eyes were tightly shut, lying there motionless as if she were in a deep sleep, only her ears were like two diligent sentinels, meticulously capturing every little movement around her.
Whenever there was an unusual rustle of leaves, it was like a tiny alarm in her heart, quickly alerting her, even though her eyes remained closed, her whole body was in a state of readiness to spring up at any moment.
This kind of "rest" was even more exhausting than traveling.
Zhu Yu sighed inwardly with her eyes closed, remembering what people said, "Don't fear the thief stealing, but fear the thief lurking." She never truly understood this until today, feeling it clear and distinct!
