Chapter 594 Stubborn Clergy
The main reason why Lu Jie did this was to bypass the mutant insect tide in the eastern part of the Dragon and Snake Plain. Because the jungle terrain is complex and the territory of mutant beasts is also the terrain of mutant beasts, mutant insects generally do not choose to attack the jungle area. However, even so, the team led by Lu Jie was not smooth sailing. On the way, they encountered powerful mutant creatures several times. Although they survived without any danger in the end, more than 20 people died in the battle with mutant creatures, which made Lu Jie feel very bad. What made him even more depressed was that Miss Qiao Shan, who was full of love, actually rescued a dying refugee on the way. This practice made Lu Jie really unacceptable.
In his opinion, there was no connection between the refugees who could be seen everywhere in the wilderness and their mercenary group. Qiao Shan's actions undoubtedly caused great trouble to the team. However, Lu Jie could not force Qiao Shan, who was overwhelmed with love, to let go of the damn refugee, because he knew that Qiao Shan was not only the best priest of the entire Lion Scorpion Mercenary Group, but also the niece of Qiao Guanming, the leader of the mercenary group. There were also rumors that this girl was Qiao Shan, the daughter of Qiao Zhentang, the head of the Qiao family among the 33 Blood Feathers. This made Lu Jie dare not impose his little bit of the majesty of the deputy leader on Qiao Shan, but he felt that he was holding his breath, and he could only express his dissatisfaction in this way.
"Deputy Leader, I think I know what I am doing and will definitely be responsible for my behavior." Qiao Shan blinked her beautiful big eyes and looked at Lu Jie, but her eyes were full of perseverance. She was only twenty-one years old this year. However, Qiao Shan, who has experienced many storms and waves, has long since gotten rid of the child's childishness, and she believes that her behavior is definitely not a so-called overflow of love.
Qiao Shan twisted her neck and looked at Lu Jie with some anger and said, "Deputy Commander, I am a pastor, a pastor who has received the blessing of the gods and has devoted his whole life to saving lives and healing the wounded. I think I can't see a person dying in front of me but remain indifferent. In that case, not only will the gods punish me, a person who abandons faith, but I can't even forgive myself. As for this person's affairs, I think you don't have to worry about Deputy Commander. With my ability, you will take good care of him, and it will not affect other people or our actions."
"This is not a problem for anyone to take care of that guy." Lu Jie patted his head angrily. The thing he was most angry about was probably communicating with these clergy personnel who had been brainwashed by some damn gods. He even couldn't imagine what kind of things were in the heads of these guys. Why did some extremely simple and easy-to-understand truths seem to him that they simply didn't make sense to those clergy personnel.
Lu Jie suppressed the anger in his heart and stared at Qiao Shan and said, "Qiao Shan, I did not let you betray your faith, nor did you say that it is wrong to save people. But when you do such a thing, should you also pay attention to priorities? Don't forget that we have important tasks now, and that guy is just a refugee in the wilderness. There are thousands of refugees like him in the wilderness. Can you save them? What's more, we don't even know who he is, enemies or friends, because such a person makes your teammates in trouble. Do you think it's worth doing this?"
"It's worth it." Qiao Shan nodded persistently, turned her head to look at the bearded refugee who was lying on the back of the lion and scorpion beast and said lightly, "The God said that life in this world is free from the low and low. God will not abandon him just because he is a refugee. There are many refugees in the wilderness. I think I will help him appropriately according to my own ability. If I meet a group of people with ability to move, maybe I will give them some food and help them treat a disease in the *** world and leave, but this person has completely lost consciousness. If I abandon it and let him lie in the wilderness, I want to wait for him to die. I can't watch him die but remain indifferent. This is inconsistent with God's will.
What's more, I don't think that one more person will affect our actions. When I am on the road, I will put him on the back of a lion and scorpion beast. This does not delay the journey. When fighting, no one else needs to take care of him. I think his existence will definitely not affect the safety of our team. As for the enemy or friend, I think this is not important. The True God said that in front of those bloodthirsty insects, any human can become friends and fight for the common goal of dealing with the mutant insects. Although I don't know how capable he is, even if he is not a spiritual master, but just an ordinary wilderness refugee, I think he will hope to make his own efforts to resist the invasion of mutant insects. Therefore, I cannot agree with your point of view. The kindness said by the gods will be rewarded. I am also saving myself when I save people."
"Damn it, I seem to have made a very fatal mistake. I am really depressed by a charlatan who was given a god." Lu Jie was speechless about Qiao Shan's defense. He didn't know what language to use to maintain his point of view in front of a clergy. He knew very well that in the hearts of those guys who believed in God, even if he said a thousand and ten thousand sentences, he was not as important as a god fart. He snorted coldly, said whatever he wanted, and then turned around and stopped looking at Qiao Shan.
The team moved forward quickly in a dull atmosphere. The rugged forest paths in the canyon are sometimes very difficult to walk, but these cannot affect the speed of the lion scorpion mercenaries. The lion scorpion they sat down were all specially tamed mutant creatures, with strong foot strength and flexibility. Terrain like the jungle is absolutely no problem for lion scorpion to hurry on. Before dark, Lu Jie and others rushed to the entrance of the canyon. At about ten kilometers away from the Jixin Wasteland, Lu Jie ordered the team to stop moving forward, and then found two druids to explore the way forward.
Druids are also one of the professions that have stealth abilities, as in terms of comprehensive abilities, druids are not as strong as thieves' exploration ability. However, if you simply explore the way in the jungle area, thieves are not as powerful as druids, known as sons of the jungle.
