Chapter 173 Perhaps This Is the Meaning of Guarding
Chapter 173 Perhaps This Is the Meaning of Guarding
Ahem, now is not the time to think about these things, business is more important.
Ji Wei withdrew his thoughts and turned his attention back to the egg.
She had already decided in her heart to keep the egg, but her face didn't show it.
Ji Wei looked sullen and said to the egg, "Do you want to stay or leave?"
After hearing this, the egg shook its body wildly, obviously wanting to stay.
It knows that leaving here would mean death, and only by staying can it have a chance of survival.
Although there is a beast here that wants to eat me at any time, it is still better than outside.
The world outside is too dangerous! If you are not careful, you will be eaten and smashed.
Thinking of this, the egg couldn't help but shiver.
If it weren't for its hard shell, it would have died when it fell from the sky.
"Okay, you can stay if you want, but I won't keep anyone here for free."
Seeing that the egg had been hooked, Ji Wei raised the corners of his mouth slightly and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Xiaoyu glanced at her and knew without even looking that she was about to do something bad.
"The bad guy is so bad that he even cheated on the eggs."
It complained in its heart but didn't dare say it out loud.
It knows that if it dares to expose the bad guy, it will have no good consequences in the future.
Apart from anything else, you definitely won’t be able to eat crayfish anymore.
Xiaoyu still wants to continue eating the delicious and spicy crayfish.
As for this egg, never mind.
It's not like you were deceived.
Anyway, it's just some hard labor at most, it won't cost you your life.
Ji Wei really thought so, but instead of doing hard labor, she signed a contract to sell herself.
She took out a piece of paper and a pen from her storage ring and wrote the three big words "Body Contract" on it.
"Party A now accepts Party B. If Party B is successfully incubated, he will need to work for Party A for a hundred years. During this period, Party B will need to return the incubation materials to Party A. The final right of interpretation belongs to Party A. Party A: Ji Wei."
At the end, she signed her name quickly.
"Is this okay? It's only a hundred years. For a king beast, a hundred years of sleep is a piece of cake.
I'll take you in, and you'll sell yourself to me for a hundred years. It's a good deal."
Ji said to the egg with a squinting smile.
The egg hesitated, but not for too long, and shook its body slightly.
"You can't write, let me help you write."
When Ji Wei was about to write, he suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to know what this egg was called.
"You don't have a name, let me pick one for you."
She thought for a while and spoke again: "Why not just call her Xiaodan? It's easy to remember and cute."
After saying that, Ji Wei directly wrote the two words "Xiaodan" on the paper, completely ignoring Xiaodan who was wavering and madly refusing.
It's three o'clock in the morning and it will be dawn in a while.
Ji Wei was also a little tired.
She emptied out all the contents of her backpack and put them into the system space. She then took out some clothes and put them into the backpack, and finally put the little egg in.
After making a warm and comfortable nest for it, I lay down and fell into a deep sleep.
Xiaoyu had already found a comfortable place and was sleeping soundly.
……
A night passed and the sun slowly rose.
At this moment, Ji Wei was already sitting cross-legged in the tent practicing breathing techniques.
She let out a long breath and opened her eyes.
Then he opened the tent and walked out.
Several people outside had already gotten up and were washing up.
"Xiaowei, you got up so early. Go wash up and try the noodles I cooked later."
The person who greeted Ji Wei was the big brother who had the barbecue last night. He was sitting in front of the fire, making breakfast.
"Good morning, Brother Wang. OK, I'll come back later."
Ji Wei responded with a faint smile, and then walked towards the nearby dense forest.
She looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she took out her toiletries, quickly brushed her teeth, washed her face, and cleaned herself up before returning to the camp.
At this time, there were already quite a few people in the camp, sitting together and eating noodles cooked by Brother Wang.
Apart from anything else, the food on this caravan is top-notch!
Some simple foods can be turned into delicious dishes after being cooked by Brother Wang.
"Xiaowei is back! Come and eat noodles."
When the sharp-eyed Brother Wang saw her coming back, he waved to her.
Ji Wei walked over.
"Go away, go away. What is such a strong young man like you doing sitting here? Don't you know how to give up your seat? You have no sense at all!"
Brother Wang waved his hand with a look of disdain.
The young man had a confused look on his face and was still eating noodles.
"Brother Wang, there's no need for this. I'll just go back and eat."
Ji Wei looked at him obediently.
"It's okay, he just likes to eat while standing. Don't worry about it. Just sit down and I'll serve you some noodles."
Brother Wang motioned for her to sit down, and he went to serve the noodles.
A few minutes later, a bowl of noodles that was as full as it could be with a fried egg on top was brought to Ji Wei.
"Eat it, eat it. It won't taste good without the soup."
Brother Wang is in a good mood.
Ji Wei had a complicated expression and took the bowl of noodles.
A stranger who is not familiar with me is so kind to me...
"Brother Wang, you are really biased! Why don't you give me some special treatment? I am also a young person."
The young man who had just been driven away pretended to be pitiful.
"Go away, young man, why are you eating fried eggs? This girl is so young, it's time for her to grow up.
Wouldn't it be a waste if I gave it to you to eat?"
Brother Wang waved the spoon in his hand, speaking with disgust but with a smile on his face.
Ji Wei saw all of this.
She seemed to understand why Governor Meng and Grandmaster Jiang were willing to endure everything and guard the Xingyuan Rift.
Ji Wei lowered his head and took a mouthful of noodles.
Maybe one day, her thoughts will change and become the same as Governor Meng and others.
Of course, not now.
At least until now, her mind has not changed.
Besides, she's not strong enough.
If you can't even avenge yourself, how can you protect others?
……
More than ten days passed, and Ji Wei and others finally arrived near Jing City.
She raised her head, her eyes were stung by the dazzling sun, but she could still clearly see the tall and solid city walls filled with densely packed soldiers.
They were dressed in heavy armor, holding sharp weapons, with serious and determined expressions. The sunlight shining on their bodies made the metal armor sparkle.
"Is this Jing City? It's so grand."
The young guy was a little stunned and said blankly.
"We have only just arrived. We haven't reached the destination yet."
Brother Wang patted the young man on the shoulder cheerfully.
"When you get to the city, you will know what paradise is."
"Brother Wang, is it as exaggerated as you say?"
This guy, like Ji Wei, is also visiting Beijing for the first time.
"Xiaowei, where are you going later? Do you need us to take you there?"
The attentive Sister Ying asked.
Their caravan will go to the Chamber of Commerce first later, which is not on the way to Ji Wei.
"No need, Sister Ying. Thank you for the past ten days."
Ji Wei thanked him obediently.
"Really? How about I just give you a ride?"
Sister Ying was still a little worried.
Before Ji Wei could answer, she heard the sound of an engine coming from far away.
A golden energy car with gold ingots printed on it, sparkling in the sun, flew over gracefully and landed in front of everyone.
"Boss, long time no see, get in the car!"
