Chapter 51 Leaving
Uncle Mu muttered to himself as he handed the things in his arms to Lu Jinyan. Time was too tight; these were all the things he had managed to prepare. He didn't even know if it would be enough.
"Uncle Mu, no need, I have money. You can keep the money, but I'll accept the snacks!" Lu Jinyan's voice was a little choked up. When she first arrived, she was mostly afraid and wary of this world.
Now, she has something to care about here, and she has become something to care about for others.
"You silly child, why are you being so polite with us? Take it all. Consider these demon crystals as your advance dividend from the restaurant. You deserve it all." Aunt Chun stuffed the things back into Lu Jinyan's arms.
She truly liked this girl, but they hadn't known each other for very long before she had to leave. How could she not be sad?
"Okay, I'll keep it, I'll keep it. Aunt Chun, don't cry, I'll come back." Lu Jinyan watched Aunt Chun wipe away her tears, and she couldn't control herself either, her tears falling down her face.
"Hey, why are you crying, old woman? It's a good thing that the child is growing up and going out to make a living. You should be happy. Yan'er, don't cry anymore. Your eyes will be swollen and you won't look good. I asked the kitchen to pack some of your favorite dishes for you. They're all in the storage bag. Take them out and eat them when you're hungry. Don't be stingy, okay?" Uncle Mu's eyes were also a little red, but he held back his tears with the serious look of a parent.
"Okay, I'll remember. Thank you, Uncle Mu and Aunt Chun. I'll go back and pack my things now. Don't worry, I'll keep in touch with you. We have a communication card, don't we?" Lu Jinyan was afraid she wouldn't be able to hold back, so she quickly got up to say goodbye.
"Yes, yes, we have a contact tag, we can contact each other anytime. Go on, girl, take good care of yourself!" Uncle Mu nodded quickly, he had almost forgotten about this.
The contact token was bought by Lu Jinyan from the old man under the locust tree in the Demon Division. As long as the other party's name is written on the jade token, you can contact them through the jade token, just like making a phone call in modern times, which is very convenient.
However, the prerequisite was that the other party also had a contact token. She bought four at the time, one for Chu Chu, one for Uncle Mu and Aunt Chun, one for herself, and one more in her storage bag. If she had known, she should have given it to Mo Xuan.
This way, at least we can practice the relationship and increase our favorability!
After saying goodbye to Uncle Mu and Aunt Chun, Lu Jinyan quickly strolled around the streets, buying almost everything she needed and could use on the way, especially a large amount of food.
When she got home, Chu Chu had already packed almost everything. Lu Jinyan was almost dumbfounded when she saw it. This girl was really honest; she had even packed pots, pans, seasonings, and other things.
"Hehe, I was just worried you'd get hungry on the way. The food outside probably won't suit your taste, so I brought these with me. If you get hungry, I can cook for you." Chu Chu rubbed her head, looking embarrassed.
"Hmm, our Chuchu is so thoughtful. By the way, what about the meat in the yard? Have you put it away yet?" She was planning to smoke the cured meat before Mo Chen arrived, but she ran into him before she could even start.
It seems this meat can't be smoked; we'll just have to put it away and try to smoke it another time.
"I've packed it all up, Yan Yan. Don't worry, I've packed it all up safely. When are we leaving?"
"Let's set off now, but before we do, we need to buy a carriage. Walking alone will exhaust us!"
Chu Chu had four storage bags on her, all of which were quite large, so she filled them with everything she could. Lu Jinyan didn't have to bother with them either. After the two of them had all the storage bags on their bodies, they locked the door.
Looking at the place where they had lived for several months, both of them felt a little reluctant to leave. Lu Jinyan sniffed, took Chu Chu's hand, and turned to leave.
She dared not look any longer, afraid that she would be even more reluctant to part with him. It was certainly unrealistic for the two of them to walk without any means of transportation, so Lu Jinyan decided to take Chuchu to buy a carriage.
However, she had never bought a carriage before and didn't know how to choose one. After thinking it over, she decided to ask Uncle Mu for help. After all, he had lived here for so long and should know some shops. She could also deliver the house keys to them while she was at it.
Upon arriving at the restaurant and finding Uncle Mu, Lu Jinyan explained her situation. Uncle Mu took the keys from Lu Jinyan's hand and asked with some doubt, "Jinyan, why don't you buy a flying machine? That would be both convenient and fast."
"Hey, I was just thinking that since Chuchu and I aren't in a rush, it would be nice to take our time, stop and look around as we go!"
Lu Jinyan had originally planned to buy a flying machine, but after looking at them, she found that the good-looking and large flying machines on the market were ridiculously expensive, while the small ones were cheap but too ugly. She was starting to become a bit of a looks-obsessed person and couldn't accept ugly things. Rather than spending a lot of money to buy one, she might as well buy one from the system.
The system shop has everything. The aircraft are beautiful and spacious, and the prices are acceptable to her, but she can only buy them after she reaches level three.
So Lu Jinyan thought about it and decided not to waste the money. She would wait for the system to be upgraded and then pick out a nice-looking one from the system shop. As for now, she could only take a carriage.
Mo Xuan and the others were also traveling in a flying vehicle, a speed she couldn't keep up with. However, she had the system with her, and by following the system's prompts along the way, although it was slower, she wouldn't lose them. So she wasn't in a hurry to catch up with Mo Xuan now.
Since she has decided to go with the group, it doesn't count as a mission failure, and she won't be eliminated, so she has even less to worry about.
Uncle Mu didn't say much, but asked Aunt Chun to take the two of them to the carriage shop to help them choose a carriage. Aunt Chun took the two of them to the carriage shop and helped them choose a comfortable and spacious carriage.
They had chosen a carriage, but then the two of them were stumped because neither of them knew how to drive one. So they asked Aunt Chun to take them to find a girl who could drive a carriage. Since both she and Chu Chu were girls, it would be more reliable to find a girl.
Aunt Chun smiled and nodded, then led the two of them to the demon slave market.
The Demon Slave Market, as the name suggests, is a place where demon slaves are sold, much like the slave markets of ancient times. It has all kinds of demon slaves, men and women, good-looking and not-so-good-looking, you name it.
This was Lu Jinyan's first time in such a place. Seeing people locked in cages made her feel a little uncomfortable, after all, she was a good child raised under the red flag.
