The black-robed man ate very slowly, as if savoring every bite. Su Jiu only ate one-third of the half roasted whole lamb, and the black-robed man ate the rest.

Not only that, but the black-robed man also ordered all the dishes in the inn. In the end, the small table really couldn't fit, so Xiao Er put several tables together.

There were a total of dozens of plates. If it wasn't for the unfortunate coincidence that two people came, some dishes on the menu lacked some ingredients, and I'm afraid there would be more.

Su Jiu looked at the almost full table, couldn't hold back, and twitched the corners of her lips.

"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 could he finish eating, but his stomach was not bursting.

Su Jiu stared at his stomach, the plates were clean, but his stomach didn't show any signs of bulging, like sand falling into the sea.

This amount of food, even the waiter and shopkeeper were terrified.

In the end, Su Jiu paid the money.

The two walked out of the town side by side. It was almost dark at this time, and a tornado blew up in the sky. The fine sand was rolled up by the wind, forming a spiral shape, and hitting the body rustlingly. Although it didn't hurt, it was also very distressing.

Su Jiu turned her head to look 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 him at all.

The two came to a place with broken walls and ruins. This place seemed to be a small town at one time. The city walls were half collapsed, and several dilapidated houses were scattered in several places. The roofs were all broken, and almost half of them were buried by wind and sand.

Su Jiu stood still 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 didn't know him, From a distance, he looks like a skeleton dried up by the wind, which is especially frightening.

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

"Today's food is delicious."

The wind carried his voice intermittently and erratically, "Su Jiu, is the milk draft and iced bean paste you said really as delicious as you said?"

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

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

Su Jiu was taken aback, "You..."

As soon as she opened her mouth, a sharp blade suddenly appeared in the wind. It was black, like dark steel, with a cold metallic luster. There was no time, and the sharp blade was almost in front of her eyes in the blink of an eye.

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

'when! '

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

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

No matter how good-tempered Su Jiu was, she was irritated by the black-robed man's incoherent attack. The silver bracelet received three attacks, and there were already visible cracks on the surface, which could not be resisted at all. For the fourth attack, the bell rang frantically.

'Tick tock, tick tock...'

The dark red blood dripped into the sand along Su Jiu's fingertips bit by bit. She almost couldn't feel the existence of her arm at all, and her fingertips trembled unconsciously.

"What the hell do you want to do?"

Su Jiu looked at the black-robed man coldly, but met a pair of pitch-black eyes where the whites of the eyes could not be seen at all. They were full of almost paranoid madness, which made people startled. He seemed to be a completely changed person. As if, he only looked at Su Jiu coldly.

"You're going to die."

He said this sentence calmly with a blank face.

There was a wry smile on the corner of 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 remember Chi?"

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

"The Ninth Princess of Beiyan Kingdom is really fraternal. Everyone cares, everyone cares. If you really want to know, you can go and see for yourself."

The man in black robe laughed a few times, then couldn't help coughing lightly, he was out of breath, "But I can tell you how to save him right now, in the westernmost part of Tuoba country, 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 things inside can save your elder brother."

Su Jiu frowned, always felt that what he said had a lot of meaning, and she always felt that he seemed to be begging for death.

Why is this?

Before Su Jiu could figure out why, another sharp blade slashed at her with lightning speed, and Su Jiu subconsciously raised her hand to block it.

'Ring ring ring'

'click'

The ringing of the bell and the breaking of the bracelet sounded almost at the same time.

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

"Jie Jie Jie Jie Jie... Hehehehe... You are finally here."

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

Hang Jingyi lowered his eyes, his eyes touched Su Jiu's fingertips that were dripping with blood, his eyes trembled uncontrollably, 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 his arm.

Su Jiu only felt that there seemed to be a warm current leaking from Hang Jingyi's palm, spreading up and down from the position where the two of them bonded to her arm, the blood stopped, and the whole arm was not as numb as before.

Su Jiu tried to move her arm, and indeed she was able to move.

It took a while before Hang Jingyi withdrew his hand, and throughout the whole process, the man in black robe didn't say a word, and he didn't attack at a disagreement like just now.

"Why did you appear here?" If she remembers correctly, Penglai Island is still far away from here, one is in the east and the other is in the northwest.

He... is this teleportation?
Hang Jingyi took a deep look at Su Jiu, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the broken silver bracelet under her feet, bent down, and picked up the stumps of the silver bracelet one by one.

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

Only then did he turn his head to look at the man in black robe.

"What are you talking about?" The tone was quite helpless.

The strange thing is, Su Jiu felt that she could hear a little pampering from this sentence, it's over, is there something wrong with her head?
"As expected, you are here. As expected, whether it's the little eunuch or you, the great national teacher, you have fallen in love with Su Jiu long ago, right?"

The man in black looked at Su Jiu coldly.

Su Jiu was taken aback.

Hang Jingyi's fingertips holding Su Jiu's arm trembled unconsciously, neither admitting nor denying it.

"You've crossed the line."

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

"At the beginning, I read from the same source. I spared your life, but I just trapped you in the formation. Now you forcefully break the formation, and your life is not long. With so many plans, what are you talking about?"

The man in black robe stared across Hang Jingyi's face in a daze, with a bit of a sickness, "For you! I just want to see you for the last time."

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

"Why aren't you?" the black-robed man asked back.

At this moment, the expression of the black-robed man suddenly became terrified, and he looked around in horror. There seemed to be invisible things beside him.

'click'

It was the sound of bones breaking. The man in black screamed in pain, and then his shoulders slumped limply, as if... the bones of his shoulders were crushed by someone.

"you……"

Hang Jingyi's eyes fell on the figure beside the man in black robe accurately. It was a very long gray figure, which looked like a figure, but his hands and feet were too long, like ramen noodles.

The human form seemed to sense that Hang Jingyi was looking at it, and smiled strangely, raising his hand.

'click' 'click'...

There were several sounds of bone shattering, and finally, the man in black robe couldn't make a sound in pain, curled up on the ground like a piece of human skin.

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

"Brother Jing Yi?"

She looked in the direction of the figure and murmured.

The figure paused.

Hang Jingyi also seemed a little surprised.

Su Jiu broke free from Hang Jingyi's grip on her hand, and walked slowly to the side of the human figure. She couldn't see anything, but she could feel its existence.

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

Hang Jingyi saw it clearly, the originally manic and violent figure immediately became very cute after Su Jiu approached, and he took the initiative to put his hand in Su Jiu's raised palm.

"Four, eight, almost." Su Jiu said softly.

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

Standing not far away, Hang Jingyi watched the obsessive interaction between this person, his eyes trembled, and he suddenly understood the real purpose of the black-robed man. Throughout his life, he might not be able to make a girl like him.

Except, accept obsession.

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

Hang Jingyi felt indescribably slumped, glanced at the man in black robe, turned and left.

The obsession attached to him was born, the closer the distance, the stronger the power of the obsession, even if he leaves now, the black robe can't do anything to Su Jiu.

But before Hang Jingyi took a few steps, a girl's voice like a silver bell came from behind him.

"Hang Jingyi, where are you going?"

Hang Jingyi's body shook, and before he could stop, he heard the girl's slightly rapid breathing from behind.

At this time, the wind and sand were getting bigger and bigger, and it was almost impossible to see the figure. Su Jiu was accidentally knocked down by a stone, and she exclaimed, and was caught by Hang Jingyi in the next second.

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

Hang Jingyi picked her up, glanced at the very cute figure beside him, and walked towards the town.

The man in black watched helplessly as Hang Jingyi walked farther and farther away, the obsession in his dark eyes dissipated little by little, the pupils gradually became black and white, and there was an unpredictable smile on the corner of his lips.

Afterwards, only a 'poof' was heard, a flash of fire suddenly appeared, and the dark green flame jumped up and down.

Like a ghost.

After a while, the man in black robe disappeared into the billowing dust, leaving no ashes behind.

"Thank you, Hang."

**
There is only one inn in the town.

Xiao Er watched Su Jiu and the man in black go out of the inn, and watched Hang Jingyi carry Su Jiu back to the inn, his gossiping eyes couldn't be suppressed.

Hang Jingyi hugged Su Jiu and went straight back to the guest room, put her on the stool, squatted down to check if she sprained her ankle, but Su Jiu dodged her.

Only then did Hang Jingyi realize that he had overstepped, slowly withdrew his hand, got up, took out a turquoise porcelain bottle from his cuff, and handed it to Su Jiu, "Apply it once in the morning and at night."

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

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

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

"Am I so familiar with the owner of Penglai Island?" Su Jiu hopped on one foot and silently moved away from Hang Jingyi.

Hang Jingyi: ...

Seeing that Hang Jingyi was silent, Su Jiu raised her eyebrows, "Okay, let me change the question, why did you come here? You feel that I am in danger? What does my life and death have to do with you?"

In the past few years, Master Wuming has often spoken ill of the owner of Penglai Island in front of her, saying that he is ruthless. If it weren't for Master Wuming, she might have died. Brother Hang and Dad both went to ask the Great Master, But they were all rejected by him.

It can be seen that at that time, he didn't care about his own life or death.

So why is it showing up now?

Su Jiu didn't feel that she was so attractive that Hang Jingyi fell in love with her.

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

Hang Jingyi's black eyelashes trembled, and he got up.

"Then I'm leaving, you can go on your way after recovering from your injury for two days."

With that said, Hang Jingyi walked towards the door.

Su Jiu didn't know why, but she always felt panicked in her heart, obviously she drove him away by herself, but now she was the one who was angry.

The door was opened with a slight sound.

"and many more."

Hang Jingyi paused.

"Before he died, he said that he had done something to Brother Mei. I want to go and see him. You..."

"I'll go with you."

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

Su Jiu stared blankly at Shanghang Jingyi's worried eyes.

"it is good."

The room fell silent again.

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

"I want to go back tomorrow. The fourth sister will definitely be worried if they don't see me. The fourth sister is still pregnant, so don't be too emotional."

"Okay, then you obediently take the medicine, and I will take you to Wangcheng tomorrow." He communicated with his obsessive memory, as long as he thought about it, he could immediately know what Su Jiu had experienced these days.

Su Jiu shook her foot, but it wasn’t really painful. It was much more painful than this when she was practicing before, and she could just take a nap, not to mention that the arm that was just injured was even more painful than this. Why did he just If you can heal your hands, you can't heal your feet?
Seeing that Su Jiu was silent, Hang Jingyi's eyes were attracted by her swaying feet unconsciously, his brows were frowned unconsciously, he knelt down and held her wobbly feet, "Stop moving, you're so dishonest when you're hurt .”
