Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Although the others didn't speak, their meaning was similar to his.

After hearing this, the village chief frowned slightly: "Didn't Yinyin say she had something to discuss with me tomorrow? What she wants to say is probably not a small matter, and it's likely related to the village. You should all come and listen."

“This isn’t appropriate,” one of my cousins ​​said. “Shouldn’t we talk to Yinyin first, otherwise she’ll get angry?”

The uncles exchanged glances and laughed. "We haven't seen that girl much these past two years, we'd almost forgotten about her. She's not exactly known for her good temper. We should probably give her a heads-up."

Li Yinyin had no idea what happened after she left. As she walked along the familiar road, she felt a mix of indescribable emotions.

After spending some time at the village chief's house, she didn't run into Yin Hong and Xi Jiangyue again when she returned home.

When they arrived at the Li residence, before Xiao Fu could even knock, the door opened from the inside.

The half-immortal was dressed in a Taoist robe, complete with a newly made crane-feather cloak, exuding an air of otherworldly grace. He stood leisurely in the doorway, glancing at us in the lamplight, making it impossible to look him directly in the eye: "Back already?"

“Master,” Li Yinyin happily stepped forward and gave him a big hug, then whispered in his ear, “Master, did you dress up so nicely on purpose to pick me up, or to show off in front of my Golden Crow Guards?”

"Yes, I do," the fortune teller said, his lips barely moving, in a barely audible voice, "It's the Imperial Advisor's first appearance, don't you think I look alright?"

“Not only is it good,” Li Yinyin secretly gave him a thumbs up. “If I didn’t know you were my master, I would have almost thought you were some kind of enlightened immortal.”

Can talk.

The half-immortal gave Li Yinyin an approving look, then lightly brushed past the Golden Crow Guard.

Xiao Fu, who knew a little, took the lead in bowing and said, "Greetings, Imperial Preceptor."

The others then realized that this was the legendary, elusive Imperial Advisor, and quickly followed suit in bowing.

If Li Yinyin knew, she would probably add that he had always stayed in Shangshui Village and had never been to the Ming Kingdom, which would make him seem very mysterious to outsiders.

Thinking that this was still in Shangshui Village, Li Yinyin instructed, "Now that we are in the village, you should just call him 'Master,' and don't keep mentioning 'Imperial Preceptor.'"

Everyone should agree.

Once inside, Li Yinyin told them to follow her and settle down in the small courtyard next to Banxian'er.

It wasn't that Li Yinyin didn't want to live in the main courtyard, but there were only a few people in her family, and she would definitely come to see the fortune teller often. Rather than living far away in the main courtyard, it would be more convenient to stay closer.

Because she was really tired, Li Yinyin tidied up quickly and went to sleep. It wasn't until the next morning that she had time to go into Banxian'er's courtyard.

"Master is in a good mood, getting up so early to brew tea in the cold wind," Li Yinyin said. Now that she's been trained, she's not so afraid of the cold anymore, especially since she's wearing a cloak. She sat down directly opposite him.

Facing her master, Li Yinyin didn't mince words: "Master, will you come back with me this time?"

“Okay,” the fortune teller readily agreed, then pointed to the house next door, “but remember to move it away.”

Li Yinyin looked up and realized she knew the room well; after all, she had spent quite a bit of time exploring it before.

However, it was precisely because of the effort she put in that time that Li Yinyin had a thorough understanding of the land her elder brother had conquered, which enabled her to know where to best settle and train the two hundred female guards after they were recruited.

"That piece of jade?"

After all, it had a map of the Western Region engraved on it. It wouldn't be appropriate to leave that thing at home after the owners had all left. If Yin Hong or Xi Jiangyue suddenly decided to do something inappropriate and came to someone else's house, Li Yinyin knew with a grain of salt that they would definitely find it.

By then, the maps will be in someone else's hands. If the Yin family wants to deal with the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will definitely suffer a great loss.

So Li Yinyin understood why they were taking such a bulky thing with them.

However, she was also curious: "Master, have you finished carving the rest of the parts?"

"No," the fortune teller replied quickly, "If I do it myself, the effect won't be as good as if you do it yourself. Of course, we'll wait until you're free to talk about it."

Li Yinyin blinked, then her face suddenly fell. This meant she would now have to spend even more time carving the rest of the map? That was practically the entire Zhao Kingdom! Several times the size of her elder brother's former territory!

But the fortune teller's reason was irresistible; the word "useful" was tempting enough in itself.

“Alright,” Li Yinyin sighed, “I’ll find time to carve it after I bring the things back to Ming. It’s definitely not possible to finish it in just a few days, and I can’t stay until it’s finished before I leave.”

The fortune teller didn't say anything, letting Li Yinyin decide for herself.

After drinking tea and having eaten with him, Li Yinyin took only Xiao Fu to the village chief's house.

When she arrived, the village chief's house was already filled with people, all of whom were well-known and trusted figures in the village.

Upon seeing him arrive, the village chief spoke up: "Yinyin, you said last night that you had something to tell me. I thought that you wouldn't usually talk to me so solemnly unless it was something important to the village, so I mentioned it to them as well, so that a few elders could come and listen. Is there any problem with that?"

“Of course not,” Li Yinyin said, actually pleased to have so many people around, saving her the trouble of explaining to the clan elders after discussing it with the village chief.

"Yinyin, what important matter do you have to do? Is it like before, leading the young people of the village out to do business?"

“If we were just going out to do business, we would know the way around, so why would we need to say this?” Li Yinyin said, sitting down in her chair with an air of importance. “I came back this time to discuss with the clan the possibility of moving our entire clan to the Ming Kingdom.”

"The entire clan migrated?" After their initial surprise, the elders realized, "The Ming Dynasty? When did such a country suddenly appear?"

“Not long,” Li Yinyin said, “the country was founded this autumn, it’s still very new.”

Now the elders understood: "Is it the new kingdom in the west? You and your brother are there?"

"The western border is often plagued by war. How can such a new and small country compare to the stability of the Jiang Kingdom? Let's not bring up the matter of relocating our clan again."

"Do any of you uncles know about the Zhao Kingdom?" Seeing that they all nodded, Li Yinyin went on to mention several other small countries that had existed for a relatively long time, and finally said with a hint of pride, "These countries are now all part of the Ming Kingdom."
