Ms. Doctor Divine

1816 Into Snow Territory 11

Upon hearing Gu Chaoyan’s question, Ouyang Mingjing smiled briefly, but internally, he began pondering the matter.

Snow Territory possessed a complex and intricate landscape, making it impossible for anyone to navigate freely in and out of the territory.
Phoenix Girl had posed this question because she was contemplating marking the paths and ensuring they could find their way when needed.

Unlike the Saint Divine Land, where the landforms were clear and unchanging, complete with detailed maps indicating specific locations, streets, and stores, Snow Territory presented a challenge.
Its ever-present whiteness and frequent snowfall caused constant accidents and mountain collapses.
Maps proved futile in such circumstances, and individuals had to create their own paths.

…

“Guards from Snow Territory have basic maps, but due to the ever-changing nature of Snow Territory, with its snow-covered landscape and frequent accidents, maps are not reliable.
You need to rely on your own judgment,” Ouyang Mingjing explained.

“….”

She began to grasp the underlying message.

Snow Territory did indeed possess maps, implying that the people native to Snow Territory relied on specific methods to determine their paths rather than aimlessly wandering.
However, they were not going to disclose those methods to outsiders, even if they were aware of them.

Gu Chaoyan had asked Ouyang Mingjing these questions because she sought to gain a better understanding of their current situation.
She knew she would only receive limited information, but she hoped to glean some additional insights from his response.

Ouyang Mingjing’s assessment was accurate.

Maps would only complicate matters for them.

In most places, one could simply walk in a straight line from the center and eventually exit.
However, Snow Territory was unique.
With frequent snow-related accidents, they could easily find themselves trapped in a repetitive loop, unable to escape.

It was akin to a Möbius ring that kept them perpetually inside.

They needed a method to break free from this predicament.

Although still puzzled, Gu Chaoyan felt a sense of relief.
She quietly replied, “Oh, I see… I was just curious.”

Ouyang Mingjing chuckled softly.
“Phoenix Girl, get some rest as soon as possible.
We need to continue our journey tomorrow.
There are dangers lurking in Snow Territory, and we must hasten our progress.”

“Okay,” Gu Chaoyan agreed.

With that, they lapsed into silence amidst the darkness, surrounded by the snowy expanse.

The entire night passed peacefully within the warmth of the wagon, undisturbed by any external occurrences.
Gu Chaoyan had a restful sleep, and as she woke, a healthy flush returned to her cheeks.

Sword One handed her a cup of tea, which she gratefully accepted.
Gu Chaoyan had grown weary from spending the entire day confined to the wagon.

However, as she lifted the drapery, she was taken aback by what she saw.
