Online Game: Me, with Unparalleled Comprehension

Wu Feng opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.

The sunlight outside the window had already begun to set in the west, casting long shadows on the ground in the backyard.

He stretched his wrists, stood up, and pushed the door open to go out.

In the backyard, Wu Xingyun was still sitting in the pavilion drinking tea.

Li Qinglu practiced her skills in the open space, and her movements became much more proficient than before.

Mu Wanqing and Azi also practiced their skills on the side.

Hearing footsteps, the group looked over at the same time.

"Let's pack up and get ready to go," Wu Feng said.

Li Qinglu stopped her movements, wiped the sweat from her brow, and smiled, "Wu Lang, where are we going?"

"The Sixteen Prefectures of Yan and Yun".

Li Qinglu nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and turned to go back into the house to pack her things.

Mu Wanqing and Azi went back to their respective rooms.

Wu Xingyun put down his teacup, walked out of the pavilion, glanced at Wu Feng, and then went back to pack up.

Wu Feng turned and walked towards the front yard.

Steward Wang was directing the servants to clean in the courtyard when he saw him coming and hurriedly went to greet him.

"General, what are your orders?"

"Go to the stable and bring five horses to the gate. They need to be strong enough to run long distances."

Manager Wang responded and turned to walk quickly toward the stable.

Wu Feng stood in the courtyard and waited for a while.

Not long after, Wu Xingyun came out first.

She changed into a moon-white outfit, her hair tied up, making her look much more neat and tidy than usual.

She walked up to Wu Feng and stood next to him, carrying a small bundle in her hand.

Then Li Qinglu, carrying a bundle and dressed in a light blue dress, ran over.

"Wu Lang, I'm all packed."

Mu Wanqing and Azi also came out.

Mu Wanqing was dressed in white, wearing a veil, and carrying a small bundle in her hand.

Azi followed beside her, carrying a large bundle on her back, walking unsteadily.

Wu Feng glanced at A Zi: "What did you bring?"

Ah Zi lifted the bundle higher and whispered, "Just... a few pieces of clothing, and the rouge the young master bought for me..."

Wu Feng didn't say anything more and turned to walk towards the door.

Several people followed behind.

At the entrance, Steward Wang was already waiting with five horses.

The horses were well-fed and looked energetic, their manes fluttering in the wind.

Wu Feng walked over and patted the neck of the nearest chestnut horse. The horse gently nuzzled his palm.

"Pick one." He turned to look at the group.

Li Qinglu was the first to go up and chose a white horse.

He mounted the horse much more nimbly than before, and even patted the horse's neck after settling in.

Mu Wanqing chose a black horse, similar to the one she had ridden before.

Azi stood in front of several horses and looked around before finally choosing the smallest yellow horse.

It took some effort to climb up, but once I was seated, I gripped the reins tightly with both hands, my body taut and straight.

Wu Xingyun finally chose the chestnut horse and mounted it cleanly and nimbly.

Wu Feng mounted the last horse and tightened the reins.

"Walk."

Five horses emerged from the alley one by one and merged into the traffic on the street.

Wu Feng glanced back at the plaque of the Champion's Mansion, then turned back and gently spurred his horse's flanks.

The horses quickened their pace and headed towards the city gate.

Manager Wang stood at the door, watching their figures disappear around the street corner before turning back.

The gate closed, and the Champion's Mansion fell silent again.

Once outside Kaifeng Prefecture, there were far fewer pedestrians on the official road.

Wu Feng took the map out of his pocket, unfolded it, and glanced at it.

From Kaifeng Prefecture to the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, if you take the official road, you have to cross the Yellow River, pass through Xiangzhou and Cizhou, go through Zhending Prefecture, and then head north to reach Yingzhou.

The entire journey is nearly two thousand miles long, and it would take several days to complete on horseback.

He put the map away, spurred his horse on, and sped up.

The group headed north.

The scenery along the way changed from plains to hills, and then from hills to mountains.

After a long drive, they finally arrived at Yingzhou territory on the afternoon of the second day.

In the distance, the outline of Yingzhou City appeared at the edge of the field of vision.

The city wall wasn't very high, but it was very sturdy.

Two rows of guards stood at the city gate, holding long spears in their hands, their eyes scanning the passersby.

Wu Feng slowed down his horse and squinted at it for a while.

People are going in and out of the city gate.

There were porters carrying loads, merchants driving carts, and several merchants dressed in silk, who seemed to be talking to the guards at the city gate.

The guard waved his hand, and the merchants went inside.

There were both Song and Liao people, and it seemed like things were relatively peaceful.

"Let's go," Wu Feng said, riding his horse toward the city gate.

Several people followed behind.

When they arrived at the city gate, the guard glanced at them, his gaze sweeping over them, but he didn't stop them and waved them in.

Once inside the city, the street scenes were quite different from those in Kaifeng.

There aren't that many shops, and the signs are a bit old.

There were many pedestrians on the road, including Khitans dressed in Liao Dynasty clothing and Song people dressed in Han Chinese clothing.

Street vendors were hawking their wares, and the items they were selling were similar to those in Kaifeng.

Wu Feng led the group along the main street for a while and stopped in front of a restaurant.

The restaurant has three floors and the facade looks fairly clean.

A sign hung at the entrance, with the words "Welcome to the Guest House" written on it.

The waiter was greeting customers at the door. When he saw them coming, he quickly went to greet them.

"How many guests are there, sir?"

"Five people, I'd like a private room." Wu Feng dismounted.

"Alright! Please come upstairs!" The waiter stepped aside to make way, then called out again, "Five people, one private room!"

Another man ran out, took the reins, and led the horse to the backyard.

Wu Feng led the group upstairs.

The waiter pushed open the door to the innermost private room and stepped aside to invite them in.

"Sir, how about this room? It's quiet, and the window faces the street."

Wu Feng went inside and glanced around.

The room was small, with a round table, a few chairs, and a half-open window that offered a view of the street below.

He nodded: "This one."

The group sat down. The waiter handed them the menu.

Wu Feng took it, glanced at it, and casually handed it to Li Qinglu: "Order whatever you want to eat."

Li Qinglu took the menu, flipped through a couple of pages, and looked up at the waiter: "Braised fish, stewed chicken, stir-fried greens, cold black fungus salad, and a hot soup."

The waiter made a note of it and looked at the others.

Mu Wanqing shook her head: "Either is fine."

Azi shook her head as well.

Wu Xingyun remained silent.

Wu Feng took the menu, flipped through it again, added a braised beef and a plate of peanuts, and handed the menu back to the waiter: "That's all for now."

"Alright! Please wait a moment, the food will be here shortly!" After taking notes, the waiter turned and left the private room, closing the door behind him.

Li Qinglu leaned against the window and looked out. People were coming and going on the street. There were Khitans in fur coats leading horses, and Song merchants setting up stalls on the roadside.

"This place is quite different from Kaifeng," she said.

Wu Feng leaned back in his chair and didn't reply.

With a slight thought, I opened my friends list.

He found Li Hu's name and sent him a message: "I've arrived in Yingzhou. Where are your people?"

After sending it, he leaned back in his chair and waited.

Shortly after, a reply came back: "We're still on our way, probably in another two days. We'll contact you once everyone's here."

Wu Feng glanced at it and replied, "Contact us when you arrive."

He closed the interface and looked up at the group.
