Zhu Zhuqing walked over and took the so-called map. It showed a crudely drawn city, with a winding line leading from its gate all the way to a circle. Inside the circle was written one name: Shrek!
"Head south and keep walking. We'll get there," Zhu Zhuqing said with a perfectly straight face.
Xiao Wu's eyes widened in surprise. "Sister Zhuqing, how do you know we just have to keep walking?"
Tang San rolled his eyes and headed south on his own. There was only one southbound road out of the city. That damned old man had definitely done it on purpose. And Xiao Wu was a little too stupid, too. Had she been eating too many carrots lately?
The three set off again. After more than half an hour, just when Xiao Wu felt as though her legs were about to fall off from running, a village finally appeared ahead.
With his Purple Demon Eye, Tang San could clearly make out that the village contained roughly a hundred households.
Zhu Zhuqing also looked ahead. A crowd had gathered at the village entrance. From the plot, she knew that this should be Shrek's admissions desk, and those people were all students here to apply.
"That should be Shrek Academy up ahead," Zhu Zhuqing said, pointing toward the village entrance.
By now, Xiao Wu was utterly exhausted. She caught Zhu Zhuqing's right hand with her left and nearly leaned her whole body against her.
Dragging her deadweight companion along, Zhu Zhuqing struggled forward, with Tang San following closely behind.
Soon, the three reached the village entrance.
