We must also consider their own safety.

If you don't even have your own life, then what can you use to save others?

After a moment of silence, Zhou Zhizhi nodded and said, "Your Highness is right. This is all we can do."

The people they brought this time were already a bit nervous, and if they lost a few more people because of the bear or something else, it would probably cause even more problems.

Then I might end up looking like a clown and getting beaten up by others.

"Otherwise, a lot of problems will arise."

After learning about the situation, Xiao Xiyou dared not tease them any further.

Ultimately, no matter what, they should prioritize the safest possible outcome.

"Stop preparing, let's pack our things and leave. We'll take a detour."

Xiao Xiyou's words shocked everyone else slightly.

Ru Feng walked over, also holding a long knife in his hand.

"Sir, are you sure you haven't misspoke?"

"If we take a detour, it might take us an extra day."

"Otherwise, let's just go this way."

Xiao Xiyou shook his head; he couldn't tell anyone else about this now.

If this gets out, it will definitely cause widespread panic.

"No, you can just pack your things and come with me."

"Don't waste any more words."

Xiao Xiyou is quite headstrong in everything he says and does.

Even if those around them had doubts, they could only obey.

After all, no matter what, this team is led by the Second Prince.

No one dared to disobey.

I was really unwilling, but I had no choice but to pack my things and head over there.

Just as everyone got into the carriage, and some were still riding on horseback, they heard a commotion coming from the road they were supposed to take.

Moreover, the surrounding trees also moved several times.

Zhou Zhizhi and Xiao Xiyou exchanged a glance.

They knew they had definitely been discovered by the bear.

"Run!"

After Xiao Xiyou shouted loudly, the coachman quickly whipped the horse.

The horse seemed to sense danger and ran exceptionally fast.

Now those people finally believed why they had to take a detour.

Those bears weren't small; they all looked like adult bears.

They were running at a speed of several meters per second, and kept running this way.

They're riding horses, and their speed is decent, but compared to a bear, it's slightly slower.

Zhou Zhizhi was extremely anxious.

Crawling inside the carriage, I watched as the bears behind us were almost catching up.

"System, think of a solution!"

The host can purchase a teleportation skill to shake off these bears.

To get rid of these bears, you need to spend 50 points.

[The host doesn't have that many points.]

The system's words made Zhou Zhizhi feel somewhat embarrassed.

I glanced at the teleportation skill in my mind, and it just requires no points.

But right now, I have about forty points.

"Purchase teleportation."

As soon as they finished speaking, the bears behind them vanished instantly.

Although the group was slightly surprised, they continued running forward.

They were afraid the bears were just taking a detour again; if that's the case, they definitely wouldn't be able to stop for a moment.

Xiao Xiyou looked at the bears that had vanished in an instant, and it seemed as if he knew something.

I took a deep look at Zhou Zhizhi sitting next to me. Sometimes, there's really no need to say things too clearly.

After running for a while, they saw that the bears hadn't caught up yet, and there was nowhere for them to hide, so they felt relieved.

If these bears hadn't been discovered, those who brought them would probably have blamed the Second Prince.

After all, they had to take a longer route, but it doesn't seem to matter much now.

"What does this have to do with you?"

Xiao Xiyou felt that this matter was indeed a bit magical.

Zhou Zhizhi always manages to escape danger in every critical moment.

This certainly raises suspicions.

When Zhou Zhizhi heard this, she gave an awkward laugh.

"Your Highness, what are you saying?"

"If it were related to me, why would I let a bear appear?"

Zhou Zhizhi's heart was pounding.

Her intuition told her that Xiao Xiyou was definitely doubting her.

Now, we definitely need to write more carefully and quickly save his two lives before making a run for it.

Xiao Xiyou gave him a deep look, then a faint smile appeared on his lips.

"It was just a joke, why are you in such a hurry?"

Zhou Zhizhi: "???"

They said those things when they were throwing mud at us.

Now that I realize I'm angry, I'm starting to beat around the bush.

He's the one who says everything; it's utterly ridiculous.

Xiao Xiyou is actually a very cunning person, so we need to be careful.

Zhou Zhizhi decided to leave for a while; that would be better.

If the two people weren't so close, things probably wouldn't have turned out this way.

Or perhaps they're just bored and have nothing better to do.

Xiao Xiyou noticed that Zhou Zhizhi moved to the side, as if she had discovered something funny.

Are you angry again?

Looking at the man's ashen face, Zhou Zhizhi knew he was definitely angry.

But this was exactly what he wanted.

After all, if he finds out that I borrowed something else to perceive these things, it could cause a lot of trouble later.

Even if they wanted to leave, they probably couldn't. It's alright now, as they can keep some distance.

There were no other problems on the journey, and they soon arrived at Le'an Prefecture.

When they arrived near Le'an Prefecture, they discovered that many people had already been displaced.

Some were so hungry they were emaciated, and they searched for food on the road.

Some people sit quietly by the roadside waiting to die, and if they encounter a kind person, they might be given some food.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Xiyou quickly lowered the carriage curtain, his expression becoming very solemn.

I never imagined that Le'an Prefecture would become a living hell.

Their carriage was stopped by several refugees after traveling for a while.

"Grandpa, please have mercy and give me some food."

"We haven't eaten for days, and my whole family is starving."

Zhou Zhizhi lifted the curtain and saw a very thin child standing by the window.

This child reminded him of Amu.

They were all as thin as paper.
