Chapter 389 He is really here

Author: Drinking Alone in August

The man in black robe ate very slowly, as if he was savoring the taste of each bite. Su Jiu only ate one-third of the half roasted whole lamb, and the rest was eaten by the man in black robe.

Not only that, the man in black robe also ordered all the dishes in the inn. In the end, there was no room for the small table, so the waiter put several tables together.

There were dozens of plates in total. If the two of them had not arrived by chance and some of the dishes on the menu lacked some ingredients, I am afraid more would have been placed.

Su Jiu looked at the large table that was almost full and couldn't help but twitched the corners of her lips.

"There's so much, are you sure you can finish it?" Even if you finish eating, your stomach will burst.

But in the end, it turned out that not only was he able to finish the meal, his stomach didn't burst.

Su Jiu stared at his stomach. The plates were clean, but his stomach showed no sign of bulging, like sand entering the sea.

Even the waiter and shopkeeper were horrified to see this amount of food.

In the end, Su Jiu paid.

The two of them walked out of the town side by side. It was almost dark at this time. A tornado blew in the sky. The fine sand was picked up by the wind and formed into a spiral shape. It hit the body with a slap. Although it was not painful, it was still very distressing.

Su Jiu turned her head and looked at the man in black robe, and saw that he was very calm. There seemed to be an invisible barrier around him, and the wind and sand could not blow on him at all.

The two came to a ruined place, which seemed to have once been a small town. The city walls were half collapsed, a few dilapidated houses were scattered in several places, the roofs had holes, and almost half of them were buried by the wind and sand.

Su Jiu stood under a broken city wall that was half a head taller than her, and looked at the man in black robe not far away. The wind rolled up his black robe, revealing his thin body. If Su Jiu hadn't known him,

From a distance, he looks like a wind-dried skeleton, which is particularly terrifying.

In fact, he can no longer be called a human being, Su Jiu couldn't help but think.

“Today’s food is delicious.”

The wind carried his voice, intermittent and erratic, "Su Jiu, are the milk noodles and iced bean paste you mentioned really as delicious as you said?"

Su Jiu nodded, but felt that he might not be able to see clearly with the current visibility, so he said, "It's delicious, very delicious."

"That's such a pity. I may never have the chance to try those snacks you mentioned." His voice sounded slightly regretful.

Su Jiu was stunned, "You..."

As soon as she opened her mouth, a sharp blade suddenly appeared in the wind. It was dark, like dark steel, with a cold metallic luster. Su Jiu's breath was stagnant, and she wanted to avoid it, but the speed was so fast that she couldn't even react.

There was no time, and the sharp blade was in front of her in the blink of an eye.

Su Jiu's breathing was stagnant, and she subconsciously raised her arms to block it.

'when!'

The sharp blade collided with the silver bracelet, making a crisp sound. Su Jiu felt that her whole arm was numb and almost unconscious.

Before Su Jiu could react, another sharp blade came in front of him.

No matter how good-tempered Su Jiu was, she was still a little angry because of the fatal attacks from the man in black robe. The silver bracelet received three attacks, and cracks visible to the naked eye had appeared on the surface, making it impossible to withstand it.

The fourth attack, the bells were ringing crazily.

'Tick tock, tick tock...'

The bright red blood dripped down into the sand along Su Jiu's fingertips. She almost couldn't feel the existence of her arms at all, and her fingertips trembled slightly unconsciously.

"What on earth do you want to do?"

Su Jiu looked at the man in black robe coldly, but she met a pair of pitch-black eyes, the whites of which could not be seen at all. They were filled with almost paranoid madness, which was shocking. He seemed to be a completely different person.

As if, he just looked at Su Jiu coldly.

"You're going to die."

He said this sentence calmly with no expression on his face.

A wry smile appeared on Su Jiu's lips. Indeed, if there was another attack like that just now, she would definitely not survive.

"Then let me tell you one more thing. Do you still remember Zhen?"

Su Jiu suddenly raised her head and looked at the man in black robe, "What did you do to Brother Zhen?"

"The Ninth Princess of Beiyan Kingdom is really philanthropic. Everyone cares and cares about everyone. If you really want to know, you can go and take a look for yourself."

The man in black robe Jie Jie laughed twice, and then he couldn't help coughing lightly, laughing so hard that he was out of breath, "But I can tell you how to save him now. In the westernmost part of Tuoba Kingdom,

At the junction with the Western Jin Kingdom, there is a mountain called Qingcang Mountain, and there is a cave on the top of the mountain. As long as you can unlock that formation, the contents inside can save your brother Jin."

Su Jiu frowned, always feeling that his words had profound meaning, and she always felt that he seemed to be seeking death.

Why is this?

Before Su Jiu could think of the reason, another sharp blade struck her at lightning speed, and Su Jiu subconsciously raised her hand to block it.

'Ring ring ring'

‘click’

The ringing of bells and the breaking of bracelets sounded almost at the same time.

Just when Su Jiu thought she was going to die on the spot, a deep sigh suddenly came from her ears, and then someone hugged her around the waist. A white light exploded in front of her eyes, and the entire area almost turned into daylight.

"Jiejiejiejiejie...hehehehehe...you are finally here."

The man in black robe lowered his hand, looked at the person next to Su Jiu, and curled his lips, "Hang, it's been five years. I haven't seen you for five years. Do you miss me?"

Hang Jingyi lowered his eyes and touched Su Jiu's fingertips dripping with blood. His eyes couldn't help but tremble, and he raised his hand to gently hold her arm.

Su Jiu was surprised by Hang Jingyi's sudden appearance, but was immediately distracted by the warm temperature on her arm.

Su Jiu felt as if a warm current leaked out from Hang Jingyi's palm, spreading up and down from the position where the two were touching to her arm. The bleeding stopped, and the whole arm was not as numb as before.

Su Jiu tried to move her arms, and she could indeed move.

After a while, Hang Jingyi took back his hand. During the whole process, the man in black robe did not say another word, nor did he attack at the slightest disagreement like he did just now.

"Why are you here?" If she remembered correctly, Penglai Island is far away from here, with one in the east and the other in the northwest.

He...is this teleportation?

Hang Jingyi took a deep look at Su Jiu and caught a glimpse of the broken silver bracelet at her feet. He bent down and picked up the broken parts of the bracelet piece by piece.

Wrap it in a veil and put it in your arms.

Then he turned his head and looked at the man in black robe.

"What are you making a fuss about?" His tone was quite helpless.

The strange thing is that Su Jiu felt that she could hear a bit of doting in this sentence. It's over. Is there something wrong with her head?

"As expected, you are here. As expected, whether it is the little eunuch or you, the great master, you have actually fallen in love with Su Jiu a long time ago, right?"

The man in black robe looked at Su Jiu coldly.

Su Jiu was stunned.

Hang Jingyi's fingertips holding Su Jiu's arm trembled unconsciously, without admitting or denying.

"You've crossed a line."

Hang Jingyi pulled Su Jiu behind her and patted the back of her hand comfortingly.

"At the beginning, I wanted to spare your life in the same source, but I just trapped you in the formation. Now you forcefully break the formation, and your life is not long. There are so many plans, what do you mean?"

The man in black robe looked across Hang Jingyi's face in a daze, a bit sickly, "For you! I just want to see you one last time."

Hang Jingyi frowned, as if he had long been used to the crazy words of the man in black robe, "You are too obsessed."

"Why don't you?" the man in black robe asked.

At this moment, the man in black robe suddenly became frightened. He looked around in horror. There seemed to be something invisible around him.

‘click’

That was the sound of bones breaking. The man in black robe screamed in pain, and then his shoulders drooped limply, as if... the bones in his shoulders had been crushed by someone.

"you……"

Hang Jingyi's eyes fell accurately on the human figure next to the man in black robe. It was a long, gray figure that looked like a human figure, but its arms and legs were too long, like ramen noodles.

The human figure seemed to notice that Hang Jingyi was looking at it, smiled strangely, and raised his hand.

‘Click’ ‘Click’…

There were several sounds of broken bones, and in the end, the man in black robe was in pain and could not make a sound, curled up on the ground, like a piece of human skin.

Su Jiu couldn't see it, but she could guess a thing or two based on the situation of the man in black robe.

"Brother Jingyi?"

She looked in the direction of the humanoid and murmured.

The humanoid paused.

Hang Jingyi also seemed a little surprised.

Su Jiu broke away from Hang Jingyi's hand and walked slowly to the human figure. She could not see anything, but she could feel its presence.

Su Jiu raised her hand and shook it vaguely in the air.

Hang Jingyi could see clearly that the originally arrogant and violent human figure immediately became very well-behaved after Su Jiu approached, and he even took the initiative to put his hand in Su Jiu's raised hand.

"Four times, eight times, that's almost it." Su Jiu said softly.

The human figure seemed to understand and nodded obediently, although Su Jiu couldn't see it at all.

Hang Jingyi stood not far away and watched the obsessive interaction between this man and his eyes trembled. He suddenly understood the true purpose of the man in black robe. He was afraid that he would never be able to make a girl like him for the rest of his life.

Except, accept the obsession.

The man in black robe seemed to have lost his breath a long time ago. He was lying on the ground like a puddle of mud, breathing weakly.

Hang Jingyi felt indescribably depressed. He glanced at the man in black robe and turned to leave.

The obsession is attached to him. The closer the distance, the stronger the obsession. Even if he leaves now, the black robe can't do anything to Su Jiu.

But before Hang Jingyi could take a few steps, a girl's silver bell-like voice came from behind.

"Hang Jingyi, where are you going?"

Hang Jingyi's body was shaken, and before he could stop, he heard the girl's slightly rapid breathing behind him.

At this time, the wind and sand were getting stronger and stronger, and it was almost impossible to see the figures. Su Jiu was accidentally knocked down by a stone and screamed. The next second, she was caught by Hang Jingyi.

Su Jiu lay on Hang Jingyi's chest, listening to his heartbeat, her almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly.

Hang Jingyi picked her up, looked at the obedient human figure beside him, and walked towards the town.

The man in black robe watched helplessly as Hang Jingyi walked further and further away, the obsession in his dark eyes dissipated little by little, his pupils gradually became clearer in black and white, and an unpredictable smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

Then, there was only a 'pop' sound, and a flash of fire suddenly appeared, with green flames jumping up and down.

Like a ghost.

After a while, the man in black robe disappeared into the billowing dust, leaving not even ashes behind.

"Thank you, Hang."

**

There is only one inn in the town.

The waiter watched Su Jiu and the man in black robe walk out of the inn, and then watched helplessly as Hang Jingyi carried Su Jiu back to the inn. He could not suppress his gossipy eyes.

Hang Jingyi carried Su Jiu straight back to the guest room, put her on a stool, and squatted down to see if she had sprained her ankle, but Su Jiu dodged it.

Only then did Hang Jingyi realize that he had overstepped his bounds. He slowly retracted his hand, stood up, took out a green porcelain bottle from his cuff and handed it to Su Jiu, "Apply once in the morning and evening."

Su Jiu took it and played with it in the palm of her hand.

"You haven't answered my question just yet." Su Jiu said.

Hang Jingyi met the girl's eyes and sighed softly, "Jiu'er."

"Do I know the owner of Penglai Island so well?" Su Jiu hopped on one foot and silently moved away from Hang Jingyi.

Hang Jingyi:......

Seeing Hang Jingyi's silence, Su Jiu raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay, let me change the question, why do you come here? Do you think I am in danger? What does my life and death have to do with you?"

In the past few years, Wuming Master often spoke ill of the owner of Penglai Island in front of her, saying that he was cold and ruthless. If it were not for Wuming Master, she might have died. Brother Hang and his father both went to seek help from the Grand Master.

But they were all rejected by him.

It can be seen that at that time, he did not care about his own life or death.

Then why does it appear now?

Su Jiu didn't feel that she was attractive enough for Hang Jingyi to fall in love with her.

Seeing that Hang Jingyi still didn't speak, Su Jiu felt very bored. She turned around and turned her back to him, "You saw, I'm fine, you can go."

Hang Jingyi's black eyelashes trembled and he stood up.

"Then I'm leaving. You can recover from your injuries for two days before you go on your way."

With that said, Hang Jingyi walked towards the door.

Su Jiu didn't know why, but she always felt filled with panic. She was obviously the one who drove him away, but now she was the one who was angry.

The door was opened with a slight sound.

"etc."

Hang Jingyi paused.

"Before he died, he said that he had done some tricks on Brother Mei. I wanted to see him. You..."

"I'll go with you."

Before Su Jiu could finish speaking, Hang Jingyi frowned and said. He closed the door and turned to look at Su Jiu, "It's probably a trap."

Su Jiu looked at Hang Jingyi's worried eyes and was startled.

"good."

The room fell silent again.

"Then you take a good rest first, I..."

"I want to rush back tomorrow. The fourth sister and the others will definitely be worried if they don't see me. The fourth sister is still pregnant, so the mood swings cannot be too great."

"Okay, then you obediently take the medicine, and I will take you to the royal city tomorrow." He communicated with his obsessional memory, and as long as he wanted to, he could immediately know what Su Jiu had experienced these days.

Su Jiu shook her feet. In fact, it wasn't very painful. It was much more painful than this when she practiced in the past. She could just take a nap and it would be fine. What's more, the arm she had just injured was even more painful than this. How could he?

If you can heal your hands, why can't you heal your feet?

Seeing that Su Jiu was silent, Hang Jingyi's eyes were unconsciously attracted to her swaying feet. His brows furrowed unconsciously. He squatted down and held her erratic feet, "Stop moving, you're still so dishonest when you're hurt."
