As soon as he finished speaking, the black-robed man felt his blood churn in his chest. Pfft! After spitting out a mouthful of blood, life drained out of his body completely.
Xiao Jin flung the black-robed man aside and looked in the direction he pointed.
From the faint traces left on the ground, it could be seen that the person had indeed left in this direction.
When they saw that Xiao Jin was turning back, the two officials chased him and said, “My Lord, if we go this way, we will be turning back. If we go down, we’ll reach the path to go up the mountain.”
“Just follow me,” Xiao Jin said.
Seeing that Xiao Jin was so insistent, the officials could only resign themselves to their fate and follow Xiao Jin. They only hoped that this lord would put in a good word for them in front of Lord Wei after they returned on account of their hard work. It would be good if their monthly salary could be increased.
After Su Ying left the black-robed men’s line of sight, she took out the air-powered motorcycle. It would be less taxing for her and she wouldn’t have to exhaust her energy.
Just like yesterday, she made markings as she traveled along the path. When she crossed a small hill, she could clearly feel the change in the humidity of the air. The air had become dry.
Su Ying looked at a towering tree and stopped to leave her own unique mark on it before continuing forward.
As she traveled up front, Xiao Jin pursued from behind. Along the way, Xiao Jin also found some markings she left behind.
When Xiao Jin saw the markings on the trees, his heart could not help beating wildly!
The marking Su Ying left behind was made up of two symbols. One was like a snake, and the other was like a cup. Su Ying had told him before that this represented her!
Su Ying was still alive!
Xiao Jin didn’t want to stop moving at all. He used his fleet-footed skill to chase her, but when he reached one particular marking, he realized that there were no more markings in front of him.
He searched the surroundings but did not find any more markings.
Xiao Jin’s expression was grim. Could Su Ying have disappeared into thin air?
Indeed, Su Ying could…
At this moment, Su Ying was having lunch in her interspatial store. Fortunately, she had previously stored a lot of supplies in her interspatial store. There was everything she needed to eat and drink. Even if she ate some, the things inside would still be enough for her to eat for a long time.
When she came out of her interspatial store after eating, she happened to just miss Xiao Jin who was pursuing her.
When Xiao Jin didn’t find Su Ying’s marking in front of him, he a.s.sumed that she had turned back, so he also walked back.
However, Su Ying continued to move forward. Finally, before sunset, she saw the small path that she had seen on the drone controller’s screen previously.
Unfortunately, this small path was not at the place where they went up the mountain.
Su Ying walked to the path and flew the drone to its highest point in the sky. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, she saw Luo City not far away.
She had finally managed to get out of the mountains.
Su Ying wasn’t in a hurry to move forward. Instead, she found a place to rest. She then unfolded a detailed map of Luo City’s surroundings and marked out the route from the cave to her current location.
After making the markings, she would leave the rest to the professionals.
Satisfied, Su Ying put away the map. She didn’t want to eat fish tonight. She was craving beef.
There was beef that had been cut up in the interspatial store. She only needed to bring the beef out.
She remembered Uncle Hea saying that the most delicious part of the ox was the innermost part of the sinew meat. It was very crunchy and didn’t taste hard or dry at all. In order to fill her stomach, Su Ying took out a few slabs of this meat at once. After slicing them up with a dagger, she went to gather some firewood to start a fire and cook.
The best ingredients usually only required the simplest cooking method.
Su Ying put on the pot to boil water. As soon as the water was boiled, she tossed the beef slices into the pot. After silently counting to ten seconds, she lifted the pot from the supporting rack straightaway and fished out the beef slices from the pot.
She scooped out some of Uncle Hea’s spicy sauce from the jar and dropped it into a bowl. She dipped one cooked beef slice in the sauce and put it into her mouth. The satisfaction Su Ying felt was immeasurable.
With this mouthful of beef, even the dry food tasted delicious.
One almost full pot of beef went into Su Ying’s tummy.
After she was full, she leaned against the tree and burped contentedly, expunging a breath in comfort.
Su Ying found it easy to fall asleep after eating. She looked at the sky and planned to take a nap in her interspatial store. After waking up, she would rush back to the city.
Su Ying stood up and extinguished the fire. After confirming that there were no embers, she returned to her interspatial store.
The moment the fire was extinguished, a few figures walked over.
Earlier, Xiao Jin had detected the smell of campfire cooking. He had followed the smell to locate this spot but he was still a step too late. The person had already left.
Xiao Jin tried to touch the campfire, but before he could touch it, he was forced back by the heat.
Xiao Jin slowly got up, his brows knitting together to almost form the Roman numeral III.
“My Lord, the mountain road at night is too dangerous. Why don’t we find a place to rest?” The two officials were already exhausted from following Xiao Jin all the way. They really couldn’t move anymore.
Xiao Jin glanced at them and nodded. “Let’s settle down here.”
“Ah, sure. Huh? Why is there a campfire here? Did someone come here before us? It’s perfect. Let me see if I can start a fire with a little blowing. It’s quite cold in the mountains at night.”
The official picked up some firewood nearby and began blowing on the embers. Then, he carefully rekindled the campfire.
“My Lord, please eat something.”
Xiao Jin took the dry food and started eating. He wondered whether he was walking too fast or too slow. Why couldn’t he catch up with that person?
“My Lord, please sleep for a while. I will definitely keep watch for you vigilantly.”
Xiao Jin nodded, but he didn’t really fall asleep. He simply sat cross-legged and meditated.
Su Ying would never have imagined that she was only separated from Xiao Jin by her interspatial store.
Xiao Jin sat outside until dawn before opening his two eyes.
“What is this place?”
The official woke up with a start when he heard Xiao Jin’s voice. “Huh? My… my Lord, this is the path we took to go up the mountain. However, the place we went up the mountain is closer to Luo City. This place is a little further away.”
Xiao Jin looked in the direction of Luo City. Was she going back to the city? Had she settled the matter here?
When he thought of this, Xiao Jin decided to return to the city to take a look.
“Mm-hmm. Let’s go back to the city then.”
The official was very puzzled, but he did not dare to ask further and quickly led the way.
In the interspatial store, Su Ying yawned and sat up.
When the two wolf cubs saw that Su Ying had woken up, they trotted over and rubbed against her body. They were whining as if they wanted her to play with them.
Su Ying played with them for a bit. She tugged at their tails and spun them around in circles. Thereafter, she ate something before coming out of the interspatial store.
Just as she was about to leave, she realized that the fire she had lit last night was still emitting white smoke.
That shouldn’t be the case. She had clearly extinguished the fire before she entered the interspatial store yesterday. Even if it hadn’t been completely extinguished at that time, it shouldn’t have burned until morning.
She walked over to test the temperature of the campfire. It was obvious that a fire had been extinguished not long ago. She looked at the footprints around her and confirmed that someone had set foot here last night.
Who would come to the wilderness at night?
