[LYB] From East to North
Slowly getting back to the game. I have not written anything in fic format since… 2015? Much rusty I have become _(:3」∠)_
I might make something more out of this. idk
Xiao Jingyan woke up to the sound of seagulls cawing and sea breeze brushing against his cheeks. The sky was clear and blue, the sun bright and hot. The slab of moist rock that he was lying on dug into his skin with its jagged surface. Pressed against his chest was a luminous pearl the size of a pigeon’s egg.
Jingyan sighed and closed his eyes. Lying here in the beach, hearing the rolling waves of the Eastern Sea, far away from the capital and the machinations of the court… it was perfect. For the first time since he left for the Eastern Sea, Jingyan felt at ease.
The only thing missing was the heat of Xiao Shu next to him.

Cliff Mei was unforgiving, its ground treacherous and its snow deceiving. With each step sinking lower than the previous one, Lin Shu felt like they had been climbing the hills for hours when it had only been minutes. He had only brought Wei Zheng and 20 men from the Chiyu division with him to scout the terrain.
When he reached the summit of the hill that ended with the sharp edge of the cliff, Lin Shu felt an unfamiliar chill went up his spine, a chill that was colder than the biting wind up at the peak. He could not help but let his thumb rub against the warmed pole of his spear. The unease he had been feeling since they left Jinling was tugging him in the guts again.
Lin Shu could not help but wish he has Jingyan beside him to calm his nerves.
