As he spoke, he couldn't help but laugh triumphantly, thinking that he must show off in front of his classmates later and make them envious and jealous.

After all, not everyone has such a thoughtful and understanding junior brother! To Li Geyang, these Rejuvenating Pills were indeed rare and precious, but given his background, it wouldn't be difficult for him to obtain them if he truly wanted to. He was truly happy about this thoughtful gesture from his junior brother, and his gaze towards Gu Yunzhou softened even more.

This is how people get along with each other. At the beginning, for various reasons, the other party is willing to show goodwill, but more depends on the details of the relationship and personal temperament.

After saying goodbye to Li Geyang, Gu Yunzhou set out on the journey home with a servant who was responsible for feeding and caring for the Pentium beasts in the zoo.

Jiang Liunian and Zhu Chenxu had already departed the day before, and unfortunately, they were unable to catch the moment when the Rejuvenating Pill was successfully brewed. However, Gu Yunzhou had not forgotten his friends and specially left a few Rejuvenating Pills for each of them as a surprise.

Speaking of the students of this sacred place of books, they are truly generous and wealthy! In this item exchange event, Gu Yunzhou reaped a lot of rewards, exchanging for many enviable treasures.

These dazzling array of rare resources are at least enough to support his concentrated cultivation in the next few years. For Gu Yunzhou, this is undoubtedly an extremely satisfactory and cost-effective transaction.

For the next few days, Gu Yunzhou focused on the journey. He couldn't help but admire that the Pentium Beast truly lived up to its name. It ran like lightning, its speed as fast as lightning, truly astonishing.

In just five days, they had reached the border between Beichen and Liuli. They only needed to cross the mountains before them to enter Beichen's territory.

"Master Gu, it's getting late. This Galloping Beast is exhausted after running all day. If we don't let it rest and recuperate, I'm afraid it won't be able to continue its journey tomorrow!"

At this moment, a servant's respectful voice suddenly came from outside the carriage. Gu Yunzhou heard the voice and gently lifted the curtain to look out. He saw that under the cover of night, the sky was already full of twinkling stars, shining brightly. It was obvious that the time was indeed late.

After a brief thought, he replied, "Let's find a relatively flat and open place and rest there for the night. We'll set off again tomorrow morning!"

Gu Yunzhou gave the order directly, and the servant commanded the Galloping Beast to find a flat place near the stream and stop.

After the carriage came to a steady stop, the servant swiftly jumped down from the carriage. He first skillfully lit a blazing bonfire, then respectfully walked to the carriage door, invited Gu Yunzhou to get out, and led him to a seat next to the bonfire.

Afterwards, the servant quickly ran to the Galloping Beast and expertly untied the reins. Then, he reached into Wen Gong's arms and carefully took out the food specially prepared for the Galloping Beast.

After arranging all this, the servant turned around without stopping, trotted all the way to the stream, and filled the bamboo tube in his hand with cool stream water.

On the other side, Gu Yunzhou was also not idle. He methodically took out an iron pot from the carriage, placed it steadily on the campfire, and began to prepare today's dinner.

Gu Yunzhou didn't have the patronizing, pampered ways of the young masters from traditional aristocratic families of the Tianxing Continent. Instead, he always adhered to the life philosophy of "do it yourself, and you'll have enough food and clothing," and did everything himself.

After just a few days of getting along, the servant who was originally in awe and trepidation of Gu Yunzhou gradually got used to this atmosphere and was no longer as reserved as he was at the beginning.

After the servant had properly placed the Galloping Beast, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he took small steps and respectfully stood behind Gu Yunzhou.

Although there were still plenty of spacious seats around the fire, he had been taught since childhood that a servant should never sit on equal footing with his master. So, no matter how much he longed to rest, he still didn't dare to cross the line.

In a nutshell, when the master sits, he has to stand; when the master sleeps, he has to guard; when the master eats, he has to watch.

Gu Yunzhou didn't deliberately embarrass the other party. When the food in the pot began to boil, he kept half of the food for himself to fill his stomach. The rest would not be taken away until he had eaten and drunk his fill. Alas, this abominable feudal world!

As night fell, as usual, Gu Yunzhou slept comfortably in the spacious carriage, while the servant fell into a sweet dream contentedly next to the blazing fire.

However, for unknown reasons, ever since nightfall, Gu Yunzhou's right eye had been twitching non-stop, as if out of control. According to folklore he'd learned in his previous life, a twitching left eye indicated impending wealth, while a twitching right eye often signaled impending disaster.

Lying in the carriage, Gu Yunzhou tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, his heart still restless. Finally, he did a somersault, rolled over, reached out and gently lifted the carriage curtain, and walked straight to the quiet and deserted stream.

The night wind howled like a sharp knife, mercilessly slicing at one's face and causing bursts of stinging pain. Fortunately, Gu Yunzhou possessed a body of Wen Qi. He secretly channeled his energy, and the Wen Qi within him instantly gushed out, forming an invisible barrier that firmly blocked the bone-chilling night wind a meter away from his body.

Then, he set off, following the gurgling stream, slowly strolling upstream. The moonlight tonight was exceptionally bright and clear, like a silver plate hanging high in the sky, casting a cool glow that illuminated everything around him. In this watery moonlight, Gu Yunzhou could clearly see the trees, rocks, and the winding path along the way.

Not far from here, a servant was curled up beside a blazing fire, sound asleep. Intermittent bursts of deep snoring could be heard, but Gu Yunzhou didn't slow down his pace. He walked straight ahead with steady steps.

At this moment, a very subtle "crackling" sound suddenly came from not far behind him. Although the sound was faint, it was particularly clear and piercing in the silent night.
