In the middle of the night

Inside an ordinary house.

A man and a woman are staring at each other wide-eyed.

"I said, what are you doing in my room in the middle of the night?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.

Xiao Jiu lowered her head, avoiding the gaze projected by Ma Xiaoyao, and she said in a snort: "You say...... Will there be snakes crawling in at night......"

"Snakes?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned, and then laughed: "It's been a long time, are you afraid of snakes......"

"Alright, don't laugh at me." Miss Xiao Jiu glared at Ma Xiaoyao very dissatisfied: "I decided to sleep in your room tonight." ”

"Huh? Sleeping in my room? The smile on Ma Xiaoyao's face suddenly froze: "What about me?" Where do you let me go? ”

"Of course you're in this room."

"Also in ...... What do you mean to say...... The two of us sleep in one room? ”

"Yes."

"You're not mistaken, are you? How can we, who are lonely men and widows, sleep in the same room? If you want a man, go outside to find it, don't come to my idea, my horse is very pure. ”

"What do you say?" Xiao Jiu's face sank: "The reason why I let you stay is nothing more than to let you help me watch it, if there is really a snake crawling in, you can quickly throw it out, don't let me see it, otherwise I won't want to sleep this night." ”

"Oh, I see." Ma Xiaoyao looked at Miss Xiao Jiu with a strange expression: "How did you sleep at home before?" Is there someone who is guarding you? ”

Xiao Jiu shook her head: "My house is very safe, and animals like snakes can't climb into it at all...... Have more questions? If not, then I'll stay. ”

"Hehe......" Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "Lonely men and widows are in the same room, and it is easy for some things to happen." ”

"Didn't you just say that you were pure? Why are you talking nonsense again? The little nine girl snorted: "Get up, I'll sleep in bed tonight, and you go to make the floor by yourself." ”

"Why? Is this bed good for me? ”

"I'm a weak woman, and I'm still sick, can't you let me do it?"

"Even if you are allowed to do so, there must be a scale, right?"

"I found that you're too small-minded, aren't you just making a bunk? As for being so calculating? ”

……

After arguing for a long time, Ma Yaoyao was defeated.

"I'm just too soft-hearted" Ma Xiaoyao jumped out of bed with his clothes, and then found an old cloth and spread it on the ground: "When I met you, I really poured blood mold for eight lifetimes." ”

"You're depressed, aren't you?" The little nine girl smiled: "I will teach you a way to relieve depression, that is, to think more about the gold mine, it is worth being a little angry now, and when you get three gold mines, you can become a super rich man, and you will never have to worry about money in the future." ”

"Humph!" Ma Xiaoyao snorted lightly: "You'd better not lie to me, otherwise...... Even if I chase you to the ends of the earth, I won't let you go. ”

"Put your heart in your belly, three gold mines may be important to you, but they are insignificant to me." Xiao Jiu smiled and said, "As long as you send me home safely, I will immediately fulfill my promise to give you three gold mines." ”

"Remember what you say." Ma Yaoyao lay on the ground, covered his clothes, and then closed his eyes: "Okay, go to sleep." ”

With a horse guarding by her side, the little nine girls could finally sleep with peace of mind, no, it didn't take long for the little nine girls to fall into a deep sleep.

……

The two stayed in the village for three days, and only after the cold and fever of the little nine girls were completely cured did they continue on their way.

The rest of the journey was relatively smooth, and there were almost no more things that made the horse depressed.

Ten days later.

The two walked into a desert.

"I say, where is your home?" Ma Xiaoyao couldn't help but ask: "First through the grassland, then through the mountains, and now through the desert...... Your home is too far away, isn't it? ”

"It's not far." The little nine girl looked into the distance: "As long as you pass through this desert again, you can see my house." ”

"Really?" Ma Xiaoyao seemed to be a little unconvinced of Miss Xiaojiu's words.

"Of course it's true." Miss Jiu nodded affirmatively.

"Then hurry up." Ma Xiaoyao urged.

The little nine girl pondered for a moment, and then spoke: "The next journey may encounter danger, you must be prepared to face danger. ”

"Dangerous?" Ma Yao was stunned: "What danger?" ”

"Someone might come and kill me." Road.

"Kill you?" Ma Xiaoyao's face changed: "Who wants to kill you?" Is it your enemy? ”

Little Nine Girl shook her head, then nodded again.

"What do you mean by that?" Ma Xiaoyao didn't understand: "Shaking your head again, nodding again, what does it mean?" ”

"It's a bit complicated, and I can't explain it to you right now." "You just need to know that someone is going to kill me." Speaking of this, Miss Xiao Jiu added: "When I get home, I'll explain it to you in detail." ”

Ma Xiaoyao pouted: "Since you don't want to say it, then I won't ask...... But there's one thing you want to be clear! The one who killed you...... How strong is it? ”

"Strength?" The little nine girl looked up at Ma Xiaoyao: "Don't worry, their strength is very poor, and they can't pose much of a threat to you." ”

"Them?" Ma Xiaoyao heard something unusual: "Are there a lot of people who want to kill you?" ”

"I can't say it either." Xiao Jiu shook her head: "It may be one person, it may be two people, or it may be more...... But don't worry, even if there are many people, they won't be able to threaten you. ”

"How do I feel like something is wrong?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned.

"What could be wrong? Even if I don't take you seriously, I can't joke with my own life. Miss Xiaojiu pretended to smile lightly and said, "Okay, don't think about it, hurry up, as long as we are cautious and careful, it will be fine." ”

Ma Xiaoyao pondered for a moment, then raised his head and stared at Xiao Jiu girl: "You tell me the truth, who are you?" ”

"I'm sorry, I can't sue you yet." Miss Xiaojiu shook her head: "But don't worry, when I get home, I will explain my identity to you." ”

"Why can't you sue me? What are you hiding from you? Ma Xiaoyao asked.

"Don't ask anymore, I really can't sue you now." The little nine girl smiled bitterly: "Don't force me, I promise you, when I get home, I will tell you everything." ”

Ma Xiaoyao glanced at Miss Xiaojiu deeply: "Listen, if I encounter an enemy that I can't deal with, I will flee without hesitation, and it doesn't matter to me whether you live or die at that time." After saying this, Ma Xiaoyao sped up and walked forward.

Little Nine Girl showed a trace of unnatural expression on her face, but she quickly concealed it, and she secretly prayed in her heart: God, you can be merciful, let me return home smoothly, please!

……

Seven days later.

The two of them walked out of the desert, and then they saw a continuous stream of cities, each of which was very tall, and from a distance, it looked like a giant in the sky.

"What a magnificent city!" Ma Xiaoyao exclaimed: "Little Ninth girl, is your home in front?" ”

"It's just a part of my family." Road.

"Uh...... Part? Ma Xiaoyao almost bit off his tongue: "You...... What do you mean by that? ”

"Let's go, come home with me, and when I get to my destination, I'll tell you everything." The little nine girl walked towards the front with a smile.

Ma Xiaoyao followed behind with a suspicious face, and kept muttering in his heart: So many cities are just a part of her family? What is the identity of this little nine girl? Could it be that she is...... Ma Xiaoyao thought of a possibility...... Hehe, if your guess is right, then you are really developed this time, and you will definitely be able to get three gold mines!

It may be very close to home, so Xiao Jiu girl relaxed her vigilance, in her consciousness, the person who wants to kill her will definitely not dare to do it here, but things are often the opposite, no, the killer suddenly appeared......

"Run!" Xiao Jiu girl's face changed, and she pulled her horse and ran towards the opposite city, as long as she entered the city to show her identity, then they would be safe, but how could the killers let them get their way?

Ma Xiaoyao's face turned green, and he was angry: "Didn't you say that the strength of the people who killed you was very low!" But the killers who appeared were all stronger, and they were all stronger than me! I can't deal with any of them! You hateful woman, how dare you lie to me! ”

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you." Xiao Jiu's face was full of guilt: "I don't dare to tell you the truth, because I know that if I tell you the truth, you will definitely leave me and never escort me home again!" ”

"You're so selfish!" Ma Xiaoyao shook off Xiao Jiu's hand vigorously, and then turned around and ran in another direction.

"You...... You come back for me......" Little Nine Girl didn't expect Ma Xiaoyao to really abandon her, and the whole person was almost mad: "Ma Xiaoyao, you bastard!! ”

"You deceived me first, you can't blame me!" Ma Xiaoyao shouted without looking back.

"Go and slaughter that man alone, and the rest of me will go with me to catch the Ninth Princess!" The leading killer commanded coldly.

"Whoosh!"

A masked man immediately broke away from the team, turned into a puff of green smoke and chased after Ma Yaoyao, and the remaining masked people directly surrounded Xiao Jiu girl, these masked people are all Huang-level masters, and it is not easy to deal with Xiao Jiu girl who is the eighth grade of the day after tomorrow.

I don't know what the purpose is, these masked people didn't kill directly, they just knocked the little nine girls unconscious, and then put on the sacks to resist and leave, they shot quickly, and when the soldiers guarding the city on the opposite side rushed over, they had already run away.
