“With the bull’s gait, it should arrive at the nearest city around seven or eight in the evening. If Zhou Wen doesn’t wish to sleep in the wilderness, the chances of him spending the night there is very high. It makes sense to guess seven,” Zhang Chunqiu said with a smile.

“I can’t compare to Brother Zhang’s clairvoyance. It’s just a random guess,” Xia Liuchuan said with a smile.

“Then I’ll make a random guess too. 7:01,” Zhang Chunqiu said in all seriousness.

“Since you are guessing 7:01. Then I’ll guess 6:59,” Dugu Ge added.

“Hey hey, aren’t you guys going overboard?” Xia Liuchuan said unhappily.

Zhang Chunqiu replied with a smile, “Actually, it’s too easy to guess the time. Why don’t we change what we are betting on?”

“What else can we guess other than time?” Xia Liuchuan couldn’t think of anything else.

“Let’s guess which city he’s taking that piece of wood to. What do you think?” Zhang Chunqiu said.

“Alright, let’s bet on that. I’ll let you guys guess first this time,” Xia Liuchuan said.

“There’s no need. Let’s write it on paper and open them together.” Zhang Chunqiu handed paper and pen to Xia Liuchuan and Dugu Ge.

The three of them gave their answers and opened them together.

After looking at each other’s answers, the three of them looked at each other in dismay. Among the three of them, two of them wrote the Imperial Capital, while Xia Liuchuan wrote the Capital.

However, the Imperial Capital and the Capital were basically the same. It was just that the locals of the Imperial Capital were more used to calling it the Capital.

“It looks like we can’t bet on this either.” Xia Liuchuan smiled.

“Why don’t we make it simpler? We’ll bet on whether he can reach the Imperial Capital alive,” Dugu Ge said.

“There are only two answers—yes or no. How are the three of us going to bet?” Xia Liuchuan said.

“That’s simple. Reaching the Imperial Capital alive, reaching the Imperial Capital after he’s dead, and not being able to reach the Imperial Capital. Isn’t that three options? The time limit is a month. What do you think?” Dugu Ge said.

“That makes sense. Who will choose first?” Xia Liuchuan looked at Dugu Ge.

“Since I was the one who suggested the rules, I’ll make the final choice,” Dugu Ge said.

Zhang Chunqiu wore a heavy expression as he did some calculations. After a while, he said, “If no one wants to snatch the option from me, I’ll choose the option that he reaches the Imperial Capital after he’s dead.”

“I won’t vie with you for that choice. I’ll choose the option that he reaches the Capital alive,” Xia Liuchuan said.

“Then the remaining choice is mine. I guess he won’t be able to reach the Imperial Capital,” Dugu Ge said.

“In that case, let’s travel together and follow him. Let’s see the outcome,” Zhang Chunqiu suggested.

“Fine with me.” Dugu Ge stood up.

The three of them left the cafe and chased after Zhou Wen.

Zhou Wen carried the wooden log and left the city. Although he was riding the Great Might Vajra Bull, he still needed to expend a lot of stamina to carry the wooden log. When he left the city, Zhou Wen’s forehead was already beading with sweat, and his clothes were drenched.
