Chapter 2675 Layout (Part 2)



Facts have proved that Miao Jie's idea was not just a simple one that she mentioned casually. She even had a rough plan. According to Miao Jie's idea, they could find an abandoned castle ruins, renovate and tidy it up, and then adopt orphans who were displaced by the war.

Not only that, Miao Jie also said that she could teach those children some fighting skills from the Semria continent. Although those children could not learn the magic of the power guide because it required the Brilliant Crystal, it would be no problem if they were just using it for fighting. At least in Miao Jie's opinion, the people in this world were far inferior to those in the Semria continent in terms of swordsmanship. Even if they learned some introductory skills from the Semria continent schools, they could fight some monsters in this world.

After listening to Miao Jie's plan, Fang Zheng said - this is exactly like those secret sects in the world of martial arts!

It is actually no different from the Tiandao Palace that I built in the Xunqin world! It is exactly the same.

Of course, the benefits of this plan are obvious. First, they can cut off from the Eternal Flame sect, stay out of the world, and don't have to worry about being involved in political conflicts. Second, they can also maintain contact with the Eternal Flame sect through this channel.

Hmm...why does this feel like déjà vu?

If this were to add the Holy Fire Order and the Great Shift of the Universe, wouldn't it definitely be the Ming Cult?

At this rate, are they going to move to Guangmingding?

Will there be another Zhang Wuji in a few hundred years?

And then below that, you can add the left and right envoys of light, the four Dharma kings who protect the religion, the four gates of heaven, earth, wind and thunder, the five elements flags or something like that?

If Miao Jie's statement was not only related, Fang Zheng would have suspected that she was also a time traveler and was a martial arts fan.

Ciri had no objection to this. After all, the entire continent was in turmoil, and there were all kinds of forces. To put it bluntly, you could call yourself a knight if you had a dozen guns. There were Scoia'tael, the Warlock Brotherhood, the Rat Gang, the Foresters... There were countless of them, and Geralt's witcher was one of them. In fact, according to Ciri, the number of witchers alive in Kaer Morhen might not even be as many as a handful.

This family is also famous in the mainland.

The next thing to do is to find a place. It is best to be far away from the turmoil, relatively remote, and not worried about being involved in the situation on the mainland. Miao Jie was obviously prepared for this. According to her, before leaving Novigrad, she had asked people and inquired about some places, and finally decided on a place located northwest of Crow's Nest. According to Miao Jie, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is quite remote. There are villages below that can be used to trade supplies, which is also a good place to go.

From this we can see that this little girl really had it planned in advance.

So Fang Zheng and Miao Jie went to investigate on the spot, while Xili and Lisi stayed here to take care of the children. As believers of the Seven Lights Church, and Lisi also came from an orphanage, they were naturally better at taking care of children than others. At the same time, Fang Zheng also agreed with them that after finding a place, he would notify Lisi to bring them along. Then, he rode away on horseback with Miao Jie.

“Hehehe…”

Because it was not an urgent matter, the two of them rode their horses leisurely along the path, while Miao Jie squinted her eyes, hummed softly, and looked very happy.

"What on earth are you thinking about?"

Until this time, Fang Zheng also looked at Miao Jie and asked.

"What do you mean, Mr. Fang Zheng?"

"Of course it's about the orphanage. Why are you so interested in this world?"

“Because this world is a good place.”

In response to Fang Zheng's question, Miao Jie smiled slightly.

"It's very spacious and free here. Don't you like it here, Mr. Fang Zheng?"

“It’s one thing to travel, but it’s another to want to live here.”

Fang Zheng shook his head. He certainly understood that Miao Jie was deliberately confusing him. In fact, he had already noticed Miao Jie's thoughts, because Fang Zheng had seen the same thoughts in another person before.

That was the one that Kuang San called a "stealing cat" and regarded as the greatest shame in her life - the one that Kuang San's clone found an excuse to run to the third coordinate point. At that time, she was harmless and said she wanted to help Fang Zheng, but when she got there, she immediately revealed her true colors and said she wanted to monopolize Fang Zheng, which almost angered the original body to death.

But at that time, Kuang San was obviously not angry because Fang Zheng had found another woman, but because she had been tricked by herself... So things like clones should not be used indiscriminately, otherwise once something goes wrong, even if you are angry, you are angry at yourself, so why bother?

But the clone and Miao Jie are different after all. The clone’s purpose is Fang Zheng, so what is Miao Jie’s purpose?

Besides, although this world is new, it is inconvenient.

It's like hiking in the wilderness, returning to the original nature. You will feel comfortable, but after a long time, won't you still miss the city with complete facilities, where you can order takeout to your door and there are hospitals and clinics nearby?

In Fang Zheng's opinion, the world is like this. It's okay to come here for a stroll occasionally and enjoy the pristine scenery like city people go to a 5A-level scenic spot, but it's another matter if you want to live in this damn place all day.

After all, the civilization of this world was too backward even compared to that of Semlia. People here still used wooden buckets to boil water for bathing, and there was not even a sewer system. Besides, there was nothing particularly valuable in this world. Fang Zheng did not care about the so-called sorcerers, and he looked around at those strange monsters, and immediately lost interest after discovering that their meat was poisonous and could not be eaten.

The only thing I have to say is that the scenery here is quite wild, not quite the same as that of Semlia, but it is worth appreciating.

But that's all.

So Fang Zheng really didn't understand why Miao Jie insisted on choosing this place. It seemed as if she was ready to live here for a long time.

“It’s like playing chess.”

Miao Jie still had a gentle smile on her face and answered with a grin.

"Play chess?"

"That's right, Mr. Fang Zheng. When a chess game begins, the first thing to do is to lay out the strategy, right? That way, no matter whether the opponent is advancing or retreating, attacking or defending, there will be a corresponding strategy. It's the same for me, right? No matter what, I'm just a weak and powerless woman. If someone really bullies me, then I can only run away crying."

Although Miao Jie's expression seemed relaxed, as if she was joking, Fang Zheng understood the hidden meaning in her words.

Speaking of which, this young lady's identity is indeed more embarrassing than that of others.

If you think about it carefully, most of the members of the Erebonian Empire who came to the Semlia Academy were centered around Princess Elfin. Now the political reform of Erebonia is proceeding in an orderly manner. Basically, it is taking advantage of the failure of the nobles' rebellion and starting to deprive the nobles of their power, status and wealth. Princess Elfin herself is a member of the royal family and can be considered a beneficiary of the reform. Elise is Princess Elfin's best friend and stood on the side of the princess during the civil war, so naturally she will not be liquidated.

As for Altina, she belongs to the Imperial Military Intelligence Bureau and strictly speaking is a member of the Prime Minister's faction, so she is also a supporter of the royal family.

Only Miao Jie's identity was rather embarrassing. Fang Zheng also conducted some investigations and found out that although this young lady was raised by Count and Countess Igret, she was actually a member of the Duke Kane's family.

Yes, that’s right, it was the Duke Kane who led the rebellion of the aristocrats.

If this were considered as punishing the entire clan in ancient times, she would definitely be thrown into death row and there would be no way she could escape.

Although she had a good relationship with Princess Elfen and Elise at school, and she had said that before coming here, they had studied together at the Women's College in the Imperial Capital and were good friends and classmates, but feelings were feelings and politics were politics. With Miao Jie's sensitive identity and bloodline, her position within the empire would obviously be quite embarrassing and dangerous.

Similarly, because of this, she couldn't even flee to other countries. After all, her political identity was too sensitive. Once she went to other countries, not only would it cause diplomatic disputes, but as a woman without support, Miao Jie would probably just be played and manipulated by others.

Obviously, she herself knew this, and now it seems that this is the way out she has found for herself.

Indeed, this world is much more backward than the continent of Semlia, but if one has to choose between execution and exile, the latter is obviously a better option.

To put it bluntly, Miao Jie's proposal this time was a "self-recommendation" to Fang Zheng, hoping to successfully get close to Fang Zheng's thigh to hedge the risks she would face. Similarly, this place is separated from Semlia by a world, even if things develop to the most dangerous moment, at least Miao Jie can come here to escape and get a way out.

The only question now is whether she can grasp Fang Zheng's psychology and make sure that she can gain recognition.

The little girl is young, but she has a big mind.

Fang Zheng immediately understood what Miao Jie meant, but he didn't care. In fact, there's nothing wrong with being more cunning, as long as you don't use it for crooked purposes.

“Boom boom boom!!!”

At this moment, a loud thunder was heard not far away. Fang Zheng raised his head and looked towards the horizon, only to see thick dark clouds rolling towards this side.

"It's going to rain soon, let's find a place to hide from the rain."

"Okay, Mr. Founder."

Hearing Fang Zheng's suggestion, Miao Jie smiled slightly and then answered.
