Even if a silver snake had slithered into her room in the middle of the night and stared at her headboard for the better part of the night, she remained unmoved.

As dawn began to break, the silver snake silently disappeared.

Bai Junjun turned over and continued to sleep.

Later, she was woken by the sound of washing in the corridor outside, only then realizing it was already daylight.

Bai Junjun yawned and got up. As soon as she opened the door, she saw a basin of water and a towel placed at her doorstep, clearly prepared by the people of Three-Branch Junction.

Bai Sasa, in the room next door, was already washing up in the corridor, and Bai Junjun slowly joined the washing queue.

At that time, the fox was not far from her, merely blinking at her.

Bai Junjun knew from that look that Li Wenli had also seen something last night, but now, on someone else’s turf, to avoid eavesdropping, they could only exchange glances and mind their own business.

In Ah Dao’s eyes, the two were exchanging glances early in the morning. He sighed softly and continued to turn a blind eye.

After washing up, everyone went straight out of the earthen building. By then, their three horse carriages, including the goods on them, were all pulled out onto the alleyway.

Like them, there were other merchant caravans, but heading to different destinations. Everyone just nodded to each other, greeted each other and went their separate ways.

Ah Fu and Ah Gui led them down the left fork, and from here, a seven-day walk would take them to Ying County, governed by the Second Prince.

Everyone, famished, got into the horse carriage and headed toward Ying County, almost without speaking.

Only when they had completely left the territory of Three-Branch Junction did Ah Fu and Ah Gui stop the horse carriages to make fire and have breakfast on the spot.

"Why did Three-Branch Junction prepare washing facilities but not breakfast?" Bai Junjun was somewhat puzzled.

Since they had provided such services, why not complete the full set? It was like defecating without wiping, quite uncomfortable.

Ah Fu sighed helplessly, "The things from Three-Branch Junction, they dare not eat what they give to everyone. Over time, Three-Branch Junction knew about everyone’s doubts, so they simply stopped wasting food."

"It’s better not to waste food. I wouldn’t dare eat it anyway," Ah Gui added from the side.

Initially, Three-Branch Junction did prepare breakfast as well, but they found that these people all dared not eat it, either leaving it untouched or throwing it away on the road.

The reason was none other than fear of Gu insects being in the food.

Over time, Three-Branch Junction stopped preparing it. Their food wasn’t blown in by the wind; it was kindly provided to these transient merchants, who, however, didn’t appreciate it.

Not appreciated, so be it. It was their habit.

People from Three-Branch Junction were relieved, and the merchants felt freer.

In this way, neither side needed to pressure the other, which was a kind of mutual understanding and consideration.

After hearing Ah Fu and Ah Gui’s complaints, no one said much. On reflection, it indeed seemed true; Three-Branch Junction was permeated with oddities and indeed made it hard to feel at ease.

"Speaking of which, did you see anything last night?" Bai Junjun asked Li Wenli.

"Ssss~" Li Wenli, with interest, mimicked a snake hissing.

"You saw it too," Bai Junjun said with a look of ’I knew it’.

"Probably here to monitor," Li Wenli nodded.

"???" Everyone looked at these two, playing charades, filled with confusion.

"What are they talking about?"

Ah Dao sighed helplessly, palm to forehead, continuing to ignore it all.

Bai Junjun, seeing everyone’s puzzled faces, couldn’t help but wonder, "Didn’t you see anything?"

"?" The group looked baffled again: "See what?"

"We slept very honestly last night," Ah Fu replied.
