There's a cave there! looks like there are no animals because of how tall it is and the location of it. Shall I slumber in the cave or should I sleep somewhere else?&#160;

I didn't go out of the town and trade, Ma has passed away. Only if I went on the silk road.

Go back and make a different choice Page <a href="bookcreator://page/kRHqVLiaRwKxe-wc3reiHQ">3</a>

I am two weeks into my journey! I have never thought I would make it this far; I usually trade at nearby villages and cities near China. But this time I am going to India! Sleeping on the floor with no roof over my head is difficult. I now know how much I appreciate my old ragged house now!

We would also like to thank you for your heroic act.

Thank you for your kindness, stranger you're name will always be remembered in this village&#160;

https://api.bookcreator.com/users/v2/QyOLZWcIecgBFYsRXTdqzpeTPS93/books/bXZxA1peS8-OaXwMB9S9og/assets/W-XJgOInTfiaVfZ-tpT4fw.jpeg?width=1030&height=1457

I shall go head off on my adventure; I will also want to thank you for this bag of rice.

PHEW! I am tired of traveling, pretty dark out. Should I sleep or keep going. I need to think because there is an oasis with a huge rock I can sleep underneath. Also, if I stay up, it can get me earlier to where I need to go which is India!&#160;

Page <a href="bookcreator://page/KhCLaFYpTVuBUU-AGZB0og">16</a>, keep going

Page <a href="bookcreator://page/ma0pUlhcQgmEnGsMlgR7hw">17</a>, just get some sleep and be energetic tomorrow

Page <a href="bookcreator://page/IZx2BT1GSfOs6jv2Nsf8JQ">30</a> Takes his and the extra loot

Page <a href="bookcreator://page/IZx2BT1GSfOs6jv2Nsf8JQ">31</a> decided to only get his loot

MY loot! Also, there is more loot. I don't know if I should take it.

1 year later I have gotten all the things I need and I am one day away from the village

Wrong choice! Zhong was so tired he fell asleep while riding his horse. He then fell out without realizing it, and the horse went on without Zhong. He woke up, and he was trying to find his horse. Zhong Chou is super dehydrated and his water carrier was on his horse, which led him to death. Go back to re-do your mistake!

Page <a href="bookcreator://page/CB4epK2ATJCJDUt7TwQcJQ">15</a> up for grabs to go back :D

I'm from Xi'an, and I'm heading towards the silk road mid-way; then, I'll head around the Himalayas then I am in the North of India.

Back away or I will shoot! My intentions is not to kill you, but I will.

(the horse is leaded to the rock so it cant go anywhere)

Thank you so much, kind stranger, for the goods you provided us. After we got pillages from those bandits, all of our crops and goods were gone! Here, we wanted to give you something in exchange for your act of kindness for our village!

Dear diary, it was a little over a week when I helped out a pillaged village on my way to India. I am starting to have doubts about whether I'm even going to make it to India. I'm now located in the Takla Makan desert. It will be super hot, and I should have enough water for the next biome I am heading to! Stayed up all night to come here. Better be worth it!

I have two choices to make. Help Ma, or let her rot and die from the infection. But it will take one year to get back. I will be back in 216 BCE&#160;

Location: Oasis Time: 9:34 P.M Mental Status: Lost and Confused

I feel lost, tired, confused, and bored of traveling. I need to go back; I'm just a poor merchant. What was I thinking? Wait no! I need to help my mother out. My mind is playing mind games!

https://api.bookcreator.com/users/v2/QyOLZWcIecgBFYsRXTdqzpeTPS93/books/bXZxA1peS8-OaXwMB9S9og/assets/yWbcwAMqQjin-gBjMkEMAg.png?width=1030&height=773

Brother, you are back. I will tell the healer; she will be here to start the treatment.

She had the infection for a long time just like Father.

While I was taking my stuff and the extra loot they heard the loud noise and attacked me I barely escaped with my horse and my life. But I didn't get my stuff back.  

Go back to page <a href="bookcreator://page/CmqRUNcfSq251HbKoYpmJQ">29</a>

As I was riding, I wanted to give up. I had no hope, but I remembered something má would say, "If you are thinking about giving up, remember why you started."

One of the villager escaped we must punish you&#160;

You must be confusing me with someone else because, i am not a villager i am a poor merchant nothing else!&#160;

1 month later, something crazy happened! I saw a village getting attacked by bandits!

https://api.bookcreator.com/users/v2/QyOLZWcIecgBFYsRXTdqzpeTPS93/books/bXZxA1peS8-OaXwMB9S9og/assets/nhrPUmH7T2WPum2AHdDcTg.png?width=1030&height=449

The village was horrendous, bandits burned down houses, and people were starving. I don't know if I should help them or not. What shall I pick?

That's him, the merchant! He's the one that tried to threaten us.
