In such a world, it is dangerous for a woman to walk alone.

Although Tian Yu has some martial arts skills, he still needs to be alert and careful.

Chen Shengjing has a good physical fitness and is taller than ordinary women, but she is still a minor after all, so it is a bit difficult for her to pretend to be a man.

After much thought, although Tian Yu was dressed as a man, she drove straight to the next city along the official road after leaving Shangjing. Here, she simply found a caravan heading to the southwest.

After bidding a few silver ingots, she started to walk with him.

Chen Shengjing had never traveled far from his memory, and Tian Yu's understanding of this world was limited to these days and inherited memories. The last time she went to the banks of the Lushui River, she took advantage of the money in her pocket.

When going out, it is best to have a guide.

The caravans in this world take on a lot of work, and there are many people like Tian Yu dressed as knights, so she did not attract much attention from others.

Although the caravan's speed was not as fast as traveling day and night, the route was safe. In half a month, Tian Yu arrived at the banks of the Lushui River again.

After crossing this area, we entered the southwest, and the caravan prepared to rest here.

Tian Yu stood by the river. The water of the Lushui River was fast-flowing. If one accidentally fell into it, the possibility of survival would be extremely low.

When she revisited the old place, she couldn't find the same excitement as before. What was left for her here was really not wonderful.

Qiu Niang has now become a knot in my heart.

It seemed that she would appear on her own at that time, and even the eldest princess who had cycled through time several times had never found her trace in advance.

"Lady, you'd better not stand here. The Lushui River is turbulent, and many people fall down and are never found again every year." A groom reminded Tian Yu.

Although Tian Yu was dressed as a man, her figure was still easy to recognize. With a sword on her back, she looked no different from a woman wandering the world.

After thanking her, she walked towards where the caravan had set up camp.

The groom then added, "I passed by this place last year and heard that a young lady from a wealthy family in the Lushui River had jumped into the river. I don't know if it's true or not."

"Why would you jump into the river for no reason?" These words were heard by a man traveling with you.

"It is said that the family forced the girl to get married, but she refused and jumped into the river." The coachman sighed.

Everyone sighed when they heard this. Tian Yu sat on the ground, thinking about what to do when he arrived in the southwest.

The southwest is mountainous and the roads are dangerous. After crossing the Lushui River, the caravan's progress slowed down significantly.

The destination of the caravan is the largest city in the southwest today. It is located in the hinterland of the southwest, but it is still quite far from where Tian Yu wants to go.

She planned to go into the mountains along the route the alchemist had told her, to see if she could find the tribe that had been slaughtered by the players.

If you count carefully, it has been exactly forty-eight days since she left Beijing.

After seeing many local customs and practices along the way, Tian Yu found an inn to stay in.

She had just parted ways with the caravan early this morning. Although there had been no suspicious behavior or friction along the way, she still decided to be cautious.

At noon, Tian Yu stood by the window of the inn, looking at the hustle and bustle outside, and had not yet noticed any signs that he was being followed.

Half an hour later she left the inn and followed the crowd towards the busiest market in the city.

She looked around with a curious look, and when she saw a vendor selling southwestern specialties, she approached him to start a conversation.

After going back and forth, I got a lot of information.

Going further south from this city, there are endless mountains and five large cities.

There are many settlements of ethnic minorities among these cities, some of which have even developed into huge villages.

The products that Tian Yu looked at the most were medicinal herbs.

"How much is this?" Tian Yu squatted down and asked in Mandarin.

The herbalist was wearing ethnic clothes and spoke with a thick accent: "Three cents, cheap."

Listening to him speak, his accent finally sounded familiar.

Along the way, she looked at several kinds of herbs, all of which were the same as some common herbs in the package of alchemist Tian Dazhuang.

Tian Dazhuang can speak Mandarin, but his accent is somewhat similar to that of his hometown.

In a place like the southwest, the dialect changes every ten miles, so Tian Yu used the dumbest but most effective method.

She tried her best to strike up a conversation with the herbal medicine vendors, attempting to find an accent most similar to Tian Dazhuang's.

Tian Yu glanced at the man and began to bargain: "I just asked the one in Budan Village, and it only costs two cents."

"It's different, it's different," the stall owner waved his hands, "Butan's is very soft!"

"What's the difference? Yours look similar, and only the Budan village has this." Tian Yu curled his lips.

"Eh!" The stall owner tapped his cigarette holder.

"The Budan village is next to our home. The ones from Ruding Mountain are the best. It's worth three cents!"

Such conversations have happened countless times today. On the southwest map in Tian Yu's system, she has drawn circles and marked them.

Carrying a full bag of herbs, Tian Yu found a teahouse and sat down.

This morning, she had asked all the stall owners who didn't look like those from this city, and had covered quite a few areas, but she had yet to find anyone with an accent almost identical to Tian Dazhuang's.

After taking a sip of the southwestern bitter tea, Tian Yu looked at the bustling market.

"One, two..." she counted in her mind.

After seeing enough, she walked out of the teahouse and into the crowded crowd again.

He went straight into the area where the crowd was most concentrated, reached out his hand and grabbed a handful of silver coins which he scattered on the ground.

"On the ground! There's money!" With an exclamation, many people looked down.

Tian Yu's money came from the sponsorship of the eldest princess, so he didn't feel bad about spending it, and he had just thrown away quite a bit of it.

When someone picked up the silver, others became more excited and started looking for it.

Tian Yu also bent down, but his eyes were not on the ground.

In the crowd, those who look around instead of bending down to pick up money become conspicuous.

Tian Yu bent over and took pictures of those faces.

......

Someone was searching for something when he suddenly saw many people in the crowd ahead bending down to pick up things.

Just as he was about to take a closer look to see what was going on, the person who had been following him disappeared.

Tian Yu bent down and squeezed out of the crowd.

Then he quickly walked into a restaurant, threw the money to the waiter and said he wanted a private room.

"Serve the dishes after my guests arrive." Tian Yu instructed and went into the private room alone.

After changing his clothes, Tian Yu put the conspicuous blood-stained sword into the safe house.

Although she didn't encounter any danger along the way, after she asked about the herbs today, someone looked at all the stalls she had visited. She counted them carefully and found that the other person had not missed any.

Looking at the picture he took when he bent down, Tian Yu was not sure which force this person belonged to.
