Chapter 229 Reunion
"What? You're leaving again? Where are you going?" Wang Lun asked, confused, "Is the outside world better than the Holy City? More worth staying in?"
"What makes me miss the place is the people." Xiao Xun was in a good mood. He had taken off his uniform and changed into an ordinary coat.
"Huh? Who is it?" Wang Lun was surprised. He never expected that his city lord would answer his question so readily.
Xiao Xun glanced at him and said, "You're asking too many questions. Anyway, I'll leave the rest to you. I'll be away for a long time, so you must not let anyone know that I've left the Holy City."
"Yes, City Lord." Wang Lun was still standing in the room.
"Aren't you going out yet?"
"ah?"
Xiao Xun said helplessly: "I need to change my pants."
"Uh..." Wang Lun immediately turned around and walked out with a stiff back.
Xiao Xun disguised himself as a cargo driver and successfully slipped out of the holy city. After leaving the convoy, he drove his armored vehicle hidden in the jungle and rushed to the forest tribe quickly.
He returned to the forest tribe before dark.
"Brother Xiao Xun, you're back!" The warriors guarding the tribe greeted him when they saw him.
"Yes." Xiao Xun had a happy look on his face and walked quickly towards Ye Li's tree house. He came back earlier than the agreed time just to give Ye Li a surprise.
The light in the tree house was on. Xiao Xun strode onto the tree house and walked into the house.
"Chestnut." However, when I entered the house, I only saw Xiaomu, Xixi, and Xiaowei. They were having dinner.
Xiao Xun looked around, but couldn't see Ye Li. He asked, "Where's Ye Li?"
Xiao Wei said, "She went out with Li Yuan and the others. She said she was going to get some things from her old place. The place is a bit far, so she probably won't be back until tomorrow."
"What? She went out?" Xiao Xun was worried and turned around to leave, as if he was going to look for Ye Li.
Xiao Wei quickly stopped him, "Brother Xiao Xun, don't worry. The people going with Li Zi are all skilled fighters, so there will be no problems. It's almost dark now, and it won't be safe for you to leave now. When Li Zi comes back and doesn't see you, he'll definitely be worried about you."
"Uncle Xiao." Xixi jumped down from the chair, trotted over, grabbed Xiao Xun and said, "Mom is not at home today, can you accompany me and my brother? I'm afraid of the dark, and I won't be afraid if you are here."
Xiao Xun turned around and looked down at Xixi. He smiled and said, "Okay, I'll stay."
If Ye Li doesn't come back tomorrow morning, he will go look for her.
…
On the road in the early morning, there were sun-drenched forests on both sides, and the fresh cold air hit their faces, making Ye Li and others shiver. But the scenery was so pleasant, so what if they felt a little cold?
We didn’t have breakfast because we had finished all the dry food we brought with us. Now we all have empty stomachs and are waiting to return to the tribe to have some hot porridge.
Not long after driving, they saw a car coming towards them from a distance on the empty road.
Everyone picked up their guns and became alert, wondering in their hearts: Could they be people from the mountaintop tribe?
Ye Li narrowed her eyes and looked at the person in the driver's seat. The figure looked so familiar. When the car came closer, she recognized it at once. It was Xiao Xun!
"Stop the car!" Ye Li shouted.
Qi Yuanchuan, who was driving, immediately braked and stopped the car. Ye Li couldn't wait to get out of the car.
When Xiao Xun saw Ye Li, he quickly stopped the car, got out and walked towards her.
"Xiao Xun." Ye Li shouted, ran over in surprise, and threw herself into Xiao Xun's arms. Xiao Xun stretched out his strong arms and hugged her tightly.
