I'm dressed in ancient times, I have a house, electricity, and a system pet.

Chapter 36 finally brings us "Su Yingying, the 'Active Eater'"!



Chapter 36 finally brings us "Su Yingying, the 'Active Eater'"!

The coachman greeted him politely and explained that the two public carriages were heading to the "Fairyland," and that tickets could be purchased to board.

He timidly inquired about the ticket price, expecting that such a luxurious carriage would cost at least a hundred coins, only to be told it was only two coins?!

so cheap?

Then why would he bother walking?

He thought to himself how wonderful it would be if this carriage could pass by their academy, then he could go to and from school every day by carriage. Just thinking about it made him very happy.

Hou Jinzhang did not hesitate to take out two copper coins to pay for the ticket, and then he could choose his own carriage to board with the ticket given to him by the driver.

Bai Mengran only released two carriages today to test the waters, leaving limited choices: a pink princess style and a colorful fairy tale style.

Hou Jinzhang naturally chose the latter without hesitation. After arriving at the carriage of the colorful carriage, he was about to get on when he discovered that there were stairs on both sides to the second floor. So he "huffed and puffed" up the stairs to the second floor of the carriage.

I chose a seat by the window, which gave me the best view.

To his surprise, the moment he stepped into the carriage, the heat outside vanished, and the carriage became cool and refreshing, just like springtime.

These two coins were really well spent!

Just coming in and getting some fresh air feels like it was worth the ticket price!

Hou Jinzhang looked around the carriage with curiosity, finding everything novel and interesting.

Before long, the large-screen promotional video and the spread of the "Thousand-Mile Voice Transmission" had an effect. Several people who were idle at home became eager to try it after hearing the explanation in their ears.

They came out to see what was going on, filled with skepticism and curiosity.

I just wanted to take a look to see if it was real or fake.

The result was predictable: anyone who arrived at the entrance of Jingxiang Garden and saw the carriage was destined to never return.

At the second quarter of noon, the two carriages simultaneously retracted their side ladders, closed their doors, and set off for their next stop, the Huanxi Street Market, carrying nine curious passengers.

Apart from Hou Jinzhang, who was the only man, all the other guests were women.

They all boarded the pink princess-style carriage with perfect understanding, unaware that there were people on the second floor, and sat together in the carriage on the first floor.

As the carriage started moving, their "Wow~" sounds were instantly swallowed up by the carriage's acceleration.

If they hadn't seen the rapidly changing scenery outside the window, they would never have believed that the carriage could travel so fast.

Before the group had even settled in, the announcement inside the car started again.

[Ding-dong, next stop – Huanxi Street Market Entrance. Passengers getting off, please prepare in advance.]

Mrs. Hu looked incredulous. "What? We've already arrived at the market entrance?"

"How could it be so fast? It usually takes me at least the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to go there by carriage to buy groceries." Liu Yunxi also looked incredulous.

"Yes, yes, isn't this a flying car instead of a horse-drawn carriage?"

The speaker was Liu Yuanyuan, who, as her name suggests, had a cute, round face and bangs. She was the youngest among them and was Liu Yunxi's younger sister.

Several ladies in the carriage, who were not originally acquainted, skipped the polite greetings and began to discuss among themselves.

The second stop was short, and because the area was quite chaotic, Bai Mengran set a threshold for deploying [Thousand-Mile Voice Transmission].

The selection criteria were women aged 14-24 who carried silver with them.

It wasn't that Bai Mengran was snobbish; it was just that she had secretly checked the backstage area to see how the carriages were being used.

Finding that more people boarded at the first stop than she had expected, she immediately decided to let fewer people board at the second stop and go straight to the third stop; otherwise, she was afraid there wouldn't be any seats available by the time she arrived at the academy...

This time, Bai Mengran pressed her head against the window to look out, strictly controlling the number of people getting on the bus. After counting to the sixth person, she instructed the driver to close the door and start the journey.

I figured we had reserved fifteen seats, which should be enough.

Fortunately, most people at the market entrance, upon first seeing such a luxurious carriage, assumed it was for the use of the royal family and only dared to glance at it from afar.

Only a lucky few who received the telepathic message got on the bus out of curiosity and inquired about it.

The market entrance was not far from Wanlu Academy, and by the time the carriage stopped at the academy's gate, it was not yet time for the class to begin.

"Sister Bai, this carriage is too fast! I haven't even had enough of the ride yet, and we're already at the academy."

Kong Nishang thought that by the time they arrived at the academy, it would be past lunchtime, but she didn't expect them to arrive so quickly.

After a short journey, Kong Nishang and Bai Mengran chatted while enjoying the food, and their relationship grew much closer. As a result, she began to address Bai Mengran in a more affectionate way.

"That's perfect timing. Let's just wait outside for them to come out after class."

Bai Mengran hadn't expected the carriage to be so fast. Its speed would rival that of a subway in modern times. The key point was that it could maintain its speed even while automatically weaving through the noisy streets.

Cattle!

Too bad!

Bai Mengran once again bowed down to the system's high-tech products. She really wanted to ask the system how many more surprises she didn't know about.

The sound of students reciting their lessons drifted from behind the academy gate, making her feel as if she had returned to the scene of her daily morning reading when she was studying at school.

In another carriage, Hou Jinzhang, leaning back in his seat, was quietly admiring the scenery outside the window. He was gazing out the window in a daze, and as he looked, the scenery outside seemed more and more familiar.

It wasn't until the carriage stopped that he realized this was their academy.

He was instinctively terrified and scurried away, fearing that the teacher would catch him for skipping school, and was unconsciously dominated by the fear of truancy.

Isn't this the bus to [Wonderland]?

Although he had just thought about using this carriage to go to and from the academy someday, there was no need for that to happen so soon, especially since he was skipping school right now...

[Ding-dong, this is our next stop – Wanlu Academy. The carriage will stop here briefly before heading to our final destination, "Fairyland." Please wait a moment.]

Riding in such a comfortable and luxurious carriage, chatting away, everyone was eager to stay a little longer, and naturally no one had any objections.

Except for Hou Jinzhang, who was sweating profusely with fear because he had skipped school.

After a short while, the bell rang for the end of the academy session.

After about half a cup of tea's time, groups of students began to hurry out.

Bai Mengran led Kong Nishang down from the carriage, looking for familiar faces.

Bai Mengran was thinking that she had asked Su Yingying for help before, so she would contact her first and ask her to help bring some people back.

With that in mind, she didn't use the [Thousand Miles of Voice Transmission] function again at this stop.

Kong Nishang was also peeking around, looking for her old best friend. She was usually the most enthusiastic one to come out, so why hadn't she come out yet?

Leading the way were about a dozen male scholars. Not far behind them, Bai Mengran finally spotted Su Yingying, who was pulling a slightly chubby girl along as they ran towards the outside.
