Chapter 169 Departure to Beijing
Chapter 169 Departure to Beijing
"Governor Meng, when does this competition start?"
"It's still early, by the end of this year, I'll let you know then."
Meng Miao chuckled, wanting to see how Ji Wei would react after learning the time.
You know, it’s already early August, and there are only four months left until the end of the year.
She didn't believe that this girl could still be so calm and indifferent like usual.
Who would have thought that Ji Wei just nodded to show that he knew about it and said nothing more.
"You don't have anything to say?"
Meng Miao coughed lightly.
Ji Wei looked at her in surprise, a little confused.
"No."
“It’s only nearly four months until the competition starts.”
Meng Miao didn't give up and stared at her face, as if trying to see something else.
Unexpectedly, Ji Wei's expression was still cold, his brows were slightly furrowed, and there was no other expression.
Meng Miao gave up completely this time.
"Don't you think it's too rushed and you won't be able to win the game?"
Ji Wei looked at her as a matter of course, feeling a little strange.
"Don't be afraid."
There is nothing to be afraid of. Four months is enough time for her to do a lot of things.
Ji Wei is looking forward to holding it as soon as possible.
Even if you can't enter the secret realm at that time, it would be good to complete the system task.
In her opinion, the rewards given by the system are no worse than those in the secret realm.
Meng Miao held his forehead, not knowing what to say.
Is Ji Wei too confident? Or is he conceited?
She simply changed the subject: "After you go to Beijing, tell me if you need any help.
By the way, you can also choose another book of tactics, except for some unique skills, you can choose any one.
However, I suggest you wait until you get to school before making your choice, and don’t rush into it.”
"Ok."
Ji Wei didn't know why Meng Miao said that, but nodded anyway.
She doesn't have enough time now, and "Lingyunbu" alone is enough for her to practice, so there is no need to choose another one.
"Nothing else, you can go now. Be careful on the road."
As soon as Meng Miao finished speaking, Ji Wei felt a flash before his eyes. When he came back, he found himself outside the gate of the Governor's Mansion with the token in his hand.
She had no intention of going in again. She glanced at the door, turned around and walked away.
……
A few days later, we went to the wilderness of Beijing.
Ji Wei, dressed in black with his face covered by a mask, was standing near the dense forest with a God Slayer in his hand, and was about to take some dry food from his backpack.
There was a small green jade on her neck.
"Big sister! Don't stand here. Sister Liu has grilled some meat. Let's go and try some."
The person who came was a middle-aged woman who looked ordinary. She was dressed in a heroic manner and the dagger in her hand was very eye-catching.
Ji Wei was a little surprised. Her hand, which had just touched the dry food, stopped suddenly. She hesitated whether to agree or not.
"Let's go, the meat smells delicious."
Sister Ying noticed Ji Wei since Luoxing City.
Seeing that she always kept to herself and never talked to other people, I always tried to find an opportunity to strike up a conversation with her.
I finally found the opportunity today.
Ji Wei was grabbed by the arm by the enthusiastic Sister Ying and walked towards the fire.
Her eyes widened slightly and she looked dazed.
The two soon came to the fire.
The bonfire was full of people from the caravan. In the center of the bonfire, there was a leg of some unknown meat. As it was roasted by the flames, fat was dripping from it, looking very tempting.
"Sister Ying, who is this?"
Someone who was familiar with Sister Ying asked.
“This is my sister from my hometown.”
Sister Ying asked Ji Wei to sit next to her and introduced her.
Ji Wei took off her mask and smiled gently.
"Hello everyone, I'm Ji Wei."
No one present had expected that there was such a young girl under the mask.
They had seen Ji Wei from time to time, but had never heard her speak, so naturally they had no idea how old she was.
Sister Ying was also a little surprised.
He looks like he's still studying, right?
"This...isn't he still in high school?"
A man who looked to be about 24 or 25 asked hesitantly.
Is it too dangerous for a high school student to follow the caravan?
Sister Ying didn't know what to say.
"Big sister, where are your family members?"
A middle-aged man who was smoking, a bit rough, not tall but muscular asked.
"Uncle, I have no family left."
Ji Wei's expression was extremely cold, without a single ripple, let alone any sign of sadness.
She really has no family in this world.
The others don't think so.
Judging from her tone and expression, she is clearly accustomed to living alone.
Sister Ying even imagined that Ji Wei had been struggling to survive since she was a child.
Until now, in order to survive, he gave up studying and followed the caravan to the capital to make a living.
Suddenly, in their hearts, the taciturn Ji Wei became like a cabbage in the field in winter, so pitiful.
Several ladies looked at her with eyes full of pity and heartache.
I dare not even imagine how much hardship and suffering such a delicate and lovely girl had to endure just to survive.
Damn it, how cruel are her parents!
Abandoning such a lovely girl! !
Ji Wei felt that the way they looked at her was a little strange and she didn't understand what kind of emotion they expressed.
She didn't take it seriously. She just thought they were feeling strange and confused, and didn't realize that it was love.
Xiaoyu did notice it, but she was too lazy to speak, so she simply changed her posture and quietly acted as a pendant on Ji Wei.
Ji Wei sat down under their loving gazes, and hesitantly pointed at the meat and said, "The meat seems to be cooked."
This sentence drew everyone's attention away.
"Ahem, oh, yes, the meat is ready."
Brother Wang touched his nose and focused his attention on the barbecue.
He took out a bag of chili pepper and cumin from the small pocket on his waist and sprinkled them evenly on the food. A spicy aroma immediately spread.
Ji Wei's eyes lit up, this chili smelled delicious!
"This is the chili powder I make at home. It will definitely taste good if you add it in."
Brother Wang saw her look and explained.
The barbecue was ready soon. He took out a knife, cut off the tenderest piece of meat and handed it to Ji Wei.
"This piece is yours, girl."
Ji Wei was a little surprised.
She was not very familiar with this elder brother and they had never even spoken to each other. Why should he treat her preferentially?
Ji Wei felt a little emotional, but looking at Brother Wang's sincere eyes, she did not refuse and took it with both hands.
"Thank you, brother."
A faint smile appeared on her face, a little stiff, but like a warm breeze blowing after the cold winter.
"Haha, just call me Brother Wang."
Brother Wang laughed heartily.
He quickly divided up the remaining meat.
Ji Wei also sat there and started eating barbecue.
Xiaoyu was on her shoulder, also eating a small piece of barbecue.
This caravan was arranged by Ji Wei and Yu Leyou.
His family also started out as a caravan. After knowing that Ji Wei was going to Beijing, he found such a small caravan.
At first, Ji Wei thought she would stay alone like this.
Now it seems that it is not necessary.
Thinking of this, a gleam in her eyes flickered.
