?Chapter 966: Chapter 822: The Temple of the Land Chapter 966: Chapter 822: The Temple of the Land Several years later.
A carriage was moving forward on the official road.
After the Taoist Court united the world, they refurbished the original official roads and post stations… ensuring there was a station every fifty li to provide officials with places to rest and facilitate the delivery of official documents.
At the front of the carriage, in the driver’s seat, sat Gan Yu.
His eyes were lifeless, staring blankly ahead, yet also somewhat cautious.
