This witch calls me daddy

Chapter 171 Planning Itinerary
Lu Ye spent a lot of effort to find Jialan in the crowd. She also looked frightened, leaned into Lu Ye's ear, and shouted loudly:
"She disappeared!"

Although they wanted to whisper, the surroundings were too noisy, and they ended up shouting into their ears.

Lu Ye was in the crowded crowd and was in a mess on the spot...

Damn it, I just didn’t follow the girl for a little while, and she’s gone!
What should I do?

While I was in a daze, a bright white light suddenly appeared in the suddenly chaotic hall, making everyone blind!
Lu Ye's eyes flashed white when he heard a voice beside his ear.

"See you outside."

It is the voice of my own daughter!

The old father was very happy, closed his eyes, pulled Jialan and squeezed out.

But the sudden white light, to the Guardian Group, was mistaken for a flash bomb exploding in the hall.

There were actually soldiers from the Guardian Group who fired in a panic!

chug chug!

As soon as the gunfire rang out, the scene became even more chaotic.

Lu Ye didn't have to squeeze, the crowd was pushing him out. What he had to do at this time was to protect Jialan, so that the two of them wouldn't fall, otherwise they would be trampled.

After a period of chaos, Lu Ye and Jialan squeezed into the block outside, trying their best to avoid the crowds of refugees everywhere, and walked to the corner.

When they almost reached the edge of the temple area, they finally saw two people in a small alley.

Anjie smiled, the sacred stone bouncing in her hand, her expression a little happy and a little proud.

Looking next to her, a tall girl, half a head taller than Anjie, with smooth black straight hair, delicate and sharp facial features, was looking around with curious eyes.

If Lu Ye hadn't recognized the black sportswear she was wearing that was already too small, he would hardly have recognized it as a thorn!
The Maiden of Thorns version is a bit amazing!

"So you two just spent two days playing in this damn place?" Jingji looked at Lu Ye, his attitude was as arrogant as ever.

Lu Ye walked over with a smile and stretched out his hand to compare - in the past, he would often touch the little head of Thorns, but now it suddenly grew to the height of a junior high school student, which is more than half a head shorter than himself. It's not good to touch the head to kill him. Used it.

"Did you miss me? Do you want a warm hug?"

After two days of fear and fear, Lu Ye couldn't help but feel better when he saw the children of the witch group again.

Jingji curled his lips and refused to admit it: "Good people don't live long, and disasters live for thousands of years. I already knew that you wouldn't die so easily." After saying that, his eyes fell on Jialan behind him, who looked surprised, and looked at Lu Ye with a straight look. Something was wrong again, "You gave birth to another daughter so soon?!"

Lu Ye: "..."

Anjie snickered and pulled the thorns to explain to her what was going on.

Seeing that he had gained a powerful teammate, Lu Ye turned around to comfort Jialan: "They are our people, don't worry. Uh... we seem to have robbed... something from the temple. Wouldn't it be better to leave quickly?"

Jialan looked at Anjie stuffing the sacred stone into her backpack with a strange expression. She did not comment on it and only said: "I'm going to prepare some supplies. Let's leave the city as soon as possible and overnight."

An Jie suddenly disappeared and then appeared again, and brought back a living person. Jialan seemed a little uncomfortable, so Lu Ye said, "I'll accompany her. You two hide here and don't run around."

Thorns: "Want to help?"

Lu Ye: "Forget it, I'm afraid the more you help, the more trouble you will make."

He and Jialan walked back to the temple against the flow of people. Lu Ye thought it was better to care about the mental state of his friends and not to be suspicious of the three of them as bad guys, so he found something to say:
"You seem to have never asked about our origins."

Jialan showed no expression, walked seriously, and responded casually: "The answers that can be asked are usually not true."

Lu Ye raised his eyebrows. This child was young and his words made sense.

But he still wanted to take the initiative to explain: "Our origins are indeed complicated, but at least we have no malice towards you, or even anyone in this world. If there is a chance, we are willing to help you."

Jialan turned her head and looked at him: "Help me? What's the purpose?"

Lu Ye was stunned: "There is no purpose." Jialan shook his head: "I don't accept this kind of help."

Lu Ye was stunned.

Jialan explained calmly: "My dad said that the binding of interests is stronger than the maintenance of emotions. Even if you are a cooperative partner, you are more trustworthy if you clearly mark the price. Giving without any intention is often more expensive."

It turned out to be the case.

Lu Ye nodded thoughtfully. In fact, he agreed with this truth, but for this teenager, what else could he want from her?
Perhaps the original intention derived from kindness is the greatest purpose.

Maybe there was some sympathy for her father's loss.

"Then help each other. Please help us leave the dangerous war zone and go to a safe place."

"make a deal."

Jialan answered neatly, then stopped talking and went into the chaotic temple to buy supplies.

……

More than half an hour later, Lu Ye and Jialan each came back with a huge backpack. The four of them gathered in a corner of the ruins and began to study the itinerary.

Jialan pointed to the upper right corner of the unfolded map: "This is the holy city of Manse where we are located."

Then he pointed to the upper left corner of the map: "I want to go here, through the Naji City State next door, to the tribal plains by the sea. If you want to go to a safe place, we can separate in the Naji City State. There is a passenger terminal there. , you can go to a safe country.”

Knowing nothing about the geographical environment of this world, the three of them did not speak, but Lu Ye thought of a question: "Aren't you from the Western Land? I remember you said that your home Miga is in the west of the world? You won't go back Home?"

Jialan glanced at him, looking a little lonely: "I'm going to deliver the relics."

Lu Ye suddenly realized that her comrades were from here, so it would be reasonable to send the relics nearby.

Seeing that no one had any objections, Jialan continued to point to the map, which is located southwest of Mangsai and in the central area south of Naji City State. He said: "This is the Xionmen Gate of the capital. If we want to enter Naji City State, we need to pass through Xionmen Gate. If we go, first, we need vehicles, and second... there are some dangers there."

"What danger?" Jingjia looked eager to try.

Jialan obviously didn't understand what the new girl was so excited about, and explained: "I just learned at the intelligence station that the battle situation has changed very quickly in the past few days. The generals fought by the liberation organization have been retreating steadily, and they have entered the battlefield a few days ago. We arrived at the capital and fought in the city. If we pass through Xiongmen, we will pass through a war zone."

Hearing that there was danger, Lu Ye was a little concerned: "Can't we avoid it?"

Hearing this, Jialan looked at him helplessly and drew a route along the road on the map with her finger.

Lu Ye understood.

The infrastructure in this area is very backward. There are only a few main roads. The road to the next city must pass through the capital, and you can't avoid it as long as you drive.

Unless walking.

I estimate that this journey will be three to four hundred kilometers, so walking... let's forget about it.

Lu Ye thought for a while and said, "Let's... discuss it."

Jialan glanced at the three people and knew that they had something to say, so she stood up alone: ​​"I know where the car is. I'll go find it and pick you up later."

Seeing her leaning over to put on a supplies backpack, Lu Ye understood her thoughts.

She was prepared that the three of them might not continue to travel together.

You might even leave without saying goodbye.

Then the material backpack is very important to her.

Lu Ye held his backpack with his hand and spoke sincerely:
"Don't worry, we will definitely wait for you to come back."

　Anjie looked at the sacred stone and smiled: "Look, I'll just call it a ticket!"
