Sitting in the carriage alone, Qi Qingyao hugged her bundle and peeked at the medicinal herbs inside, her eyes shining. 'Oh yeah, I'll be a rich person once I sell you guys later!'

The carriage was traveling quite fast and the road was bumpy, making Qi Qingyao quite sleepy. In a daze, she ended up drifting off to sleep. 

They arrived near the foot of the mountain where Bailong Temple stood. After Jiang Yeqian stopped the carriage, he knocked on the carriage door before swiftly hopping off the carriage and waiting for Qi Qingyao to come down. After not seeing anyone emerge after waiting for a while, he opened the carriage door. He found that the person inside had long fallen asleep, her limbs sprawled. She was even drooling. 

Jiang Yeqian immediately entered the carriage. He was about to wake her but suddenly could not help himself. 

He sat at the side and quietly watched her sleeping face for a while. 

This person's face was usually crafty but at this moment as they were sleeping, it looked quiet and serene. They looked like sleeping beauty. 

She. 

Seriously.

Did not look like someone who has had three children. 

Fair and tender, just like a small porcelain doll. 

Even her lips were pink…

Cough. 

When he realized that his gaze was wandering, Jiang Yeqian immediately withdrew it. He almost let out a light cough to dispel the awkwardness, but then wondered what he would do if he accidentally woke her up with his cough. 

So, he immediately quelled his urge. 

He thought about just sitting down and waiting for her to wake up, but could not help his gaze drifting toward the woman. 

Jiang Yeqian started contemplating. The woman said she transmigrated to this current body and that the original her probably had not been married. 

She knew how to design buildings, how to treat patients, and was also knowledgeable about different kinds of medicinal herbs...

She was... quite brilliant…

…

Qi Qingyao felt that the carriage was no longer moving. She blearily opened her eyes and found Jiang Yeqian sitting by her side with a silly smile. That unnatural smile made it seem like he was immersed in some reminiscing, and it gave her such a shock that she sat up abruptly. 

Qi Qingyao rubbed her eyes and said, "What are you smiling about?" 

Interrupted from his reverie, Jiang Yeqian lifted his gaze. Erasing his smile, he asked roughly as if in a bad mood, "I was laughing at the fact that you drooled onto the floor!"

Qi Qingyao wiped her mouth subconsciously. 

'Oh, there really is some drool.'

Jiang Yeqian put on his mask once again and got down from the carriage. Qi Qingyao followed closely behind and brought the two large bags down. 

"Is the carriage that far away from Bailong Temple? Why's the sky already so dark?" Qi Qingyao asked with surprise. 

Jiang Yeqian, "That's because you slept so long."

Qi Qingyao was somewhat embarrassed and said nothing more. 

The two carried the things on their backs and walked toward the foot of the mountain where Bailong Temple was. The sky was darkening at a rapid pace and the whole land looked as if someone had splashed viscous ink over it. It felt like the darkness was soon going to consume their fingers.

Qi Qingyao was just about to ask Jiang Yeqian something when the heavenly gate opened and she suddenly felt the dark clouds in the sky begin to part. A silver beam of moonlight shone from the cracks between the clouds. The moonlight was as bright as pure silver and it just so happened to shine down on a spot somewhere at the foot of the mountain. Under the dim moonlight, a dreamlike passageway suddenly appeared on the ground out of thin air.

"That, that, thatthatthat, that's the heavenly gate!"

Qi Qingyao hastily dragged Jiang Yeqian along as she ran toward it. Jiang Yeqian quickly fished out the two masks he bought from the streets from his bosom. He hooked one onto her head. As for the other… He took off his own ox-head mask and put on the koi mask. 

When they got closer, they saw plenty of people walking into the passageway before disappearing in an instant. 

Qi Qingyao also hurriedly pulled Jiang Yeqian to enter but Jiang Yeqian stopped her. 

"Why are you dragging me?" Jiang Yeqian asked anxiously.
