He Gaofei and the others found the mere thought of it horrifying. They never expected him to recount the experience so casually, as if it were nothing more than an interesting journey for him.
Ancient Wen Heng said, "Actually, you gentlemen need not worry. Our current conditions are far better than what we had back then.
We didn't just have to travel; we had to search for life-saving water.
If we truly decide to do it, I can map out a route in an instant."
He Gaofei and the others shook their heads in unison. They didn't want to endure the hardships of the road again, but they were even less willing to experience the life of a refugee.
Ancient Wen Heng continued, "However, I still think it's safer to stick to the official roads. We've passed so many deep mountains and old forests on this journey. If we were to travel through them and encounter wild beasts, I reckon a group our size would just be serving ourselves up as a meal for them."
