Traveling under the night sky of the Great Tang is definitely not a pleasant experience, even if you're riding a high-end mountain bike suitable for complex terrains.
The unpaved country roads are truly bumpy. Lin Wanwan felt sore all over, much like riding a galloping horse.
However, aside from the bad road conditions, there were no unexpected incidents.
Ordinary people in the Great Tang don't have much of a nightlife; to conserve energy and food, they usually go to bed early.
Otherwise, Lin Wanwan, in her black raincoat, riding a bicycle with a flashlight hat on her head, would surely frighten many, and she might even be mistaken for a demon and attacked.
The common folks in the countryside of the Great Tang aren't pushovers, especially around Chang'an City; they are mostly government soldiers— farmhands in peacetime, soldiers in wartime. During the busy farming season, they work in the fields; when it's slack, they bring their own weapons and food to train in the barracks.
