At night, the empress got her men to draft a rough map of the area.
It was truly just a rough sketch with points marked out at places where people were located.
They then pulled out a few strings to link the points, before marking five, six, eight, and 14 days at the side. These points were where they had discovered the herdsmen previously.
The days referred to the duration of the journey to these locations.
Mountains and rivers weren't indicated on the map at all.
It was more of a scribble than a map.
With this, it was as good as not having a map.
"We'll head here first!" The empress held the map and analyzed it for 30 seconds before she pointed at a spot.
Ren Baqian took a look at it and saw that the site was a five-day journey away from their current location.
There was also another spot that wasn't too far away from where they were heading.
