Wu Liangchen drained the last of the wine from the flask and suddenly said, "You two wait in the carriage. I'm going out for a bit."
Both of them were startled.
"Brother Xiaowu, where are you going in such heavy rain?" Erya couldn't help but ask.
"Xiaodian Town is just ahead. I need to scout it out first to prevent any surprises when we pass through tomorrow."
With that, Wu Liangchen gave the worried pair a smile.
"Don't worry. In a downpour like this, even if there are people from Cyan Cloud Mountain in the town, they won't come out. It's the perfect time for me to move."
Erya knew she couldn't talk Wu Liangchen out of it, so she silently found his raincoat, helped him put it on, and then said,
"If it's too difficult, don't force it. At worst, we can just abandon the carriage tomorrow and take the mountain paths around Xiaodian Town."
"Mm, don't worry. I know my limits."
