On the path, a girl in black stood next to a black horse, her seemingly clear eyes had been vigilantly "eagle and wolf".

But in fact, a certain thousand-armed adult, just because he was beating the small drum in his heart, always felt that behind him, in the forest, something strange would pop out, so he had to look around vigilantly at all times.

Blood-sucking... Youkai...

Although Gu Jin said in front of the empress that she was not afraid of that kind of thing.

But that was when she was with the Empress.

Now that the empress has gone to the woods alone, the situation is of course a little different.

Like what... Could it be that the monster deliberately lured the empress away, and then suddenly killed it from somewhere?

Of course, Gu Jin is not afraid of killing out, but... Just in case the youkai can spell... But she will only have a little bit of insignificant martial arts...

……

Thinking of this possibility, no matter how much the girl in black who was not afraid of monsters, she had to be a little more careful.

After the old owl called from time to time, Gu Jin grunted in her throat, and finally, she took out a small cloth bag from her arms and opened it, revealing a small wooden figurine inside.

“……”

Soft and delicate white fingers gently caressed the face of the wood carving, and Gu Jin skillfully recalled many, many things.

In those many, many memories, Gu Jin found out those uneasy nights when she also cared a little about monsters.

Then I found out the figure that accompanied me in those nights.

If he were there, he would have seen through his heart first, and then laughed at himself first...

After the joke is over, say something like "monsters are legends", "I'm here", "Sumire don't be afraid" and so on...

……

When I thought about it like this, the girl was really a little relieved.

"Sumire—"

“？”

However, just as the girl was pinching the small wooden carving in her hand and was stunned, a female voice suddenly came from the forest.

"Sumire ——, driving~"

"Madame..."

Gu Jin looked towards the forest, the red-clothed and white-clothed horse, it was Su Yupan who came back.

Da Da...

Gu Jin stood in place, watching Zhen Ji approach, and then when she saw a pair of arms around Su Yu's waist, the whole person was stunned for a moment.

This... What's the situation?

How is there one more person?

Without waiting for Gu Jin to react, the white horse stopped, and a man jumped off the horse from behind Su Yupan first.

"Sumire."

He chuckled at the corners of his mouth and walked towards him.

Familiar faces, familiar postures, familiar voices...

When Gu Jin was almost familiar with everything, he slowly approached him like this, he clasped his fists, and Gu Jin saw the familiar bracelet made of horsetail grass on his wrist.

“……”

She froze in place, speechless.

It wasn't until Qin Lang was very close to her, so close that Qin Lang's deep eyes had already reflected her stunned appearance, that she finally made her first reaction.

The girl in black tightened her eyes tightly.

“？？？”

Qin Lang was stunned by the girl's reaction, and glanced back at Su Yupan, the empress just pretended to look at the scenery, with a look of "don't ask me about things between you".

"It's not..."

Qin Lang frowned suspiciously:

"What, Sumire, are you... Don't want to see me or what? ”

“……”

The girl didn't speak, but continued to close her eyes, and her lips were pursed as tightly as the empress at that moment.

Not only the body, but also the heart is also tight.

……

No way... It can't be him...

How did he end up here?

There is indeed something unclean in this forest...

Until I miss him now, I miss him very much, so I deliberately created an illusion to deceive her...

……

The girl was more or less born in Biluo Valley, and she was a very persevering person, since she couldn't find out the falsehood, she simply chose not to see him.

Right! As long as you don't look at it, the hallucination will definitely go away!

With such an inexplicable firm belief, although the girl also wanted to see it, after all, the illusion was more realistic than the little wooden figure she carved out jerkyly, but she still held back and refused to open her eyes for a long time.

Until...

Her body leaned suddenly, and her whole person was wrapped in some kind of warm breath that she thought about day and night, and she felt a real burst of heat in her ears:

"Sumire girl, don't be stupid, it's really me..."

“……”

The girl's shoulders trembled slightly, and her heart pounded.

It's really him...

You can't go wrong, it's really him...

Only he would remind himself with a "Sumire girl" at such a time that everything is not an illusion.

So Gu Jin opened his eyes little by little in his arms, raised his head little by little, and stared at him with beautiful eyes for a long time, his eyes were a little damp, and his lips were gently separated:

"You..."

"It's me." Qin Lang grinned.

"You're stupid..."

"......" Qin Lang couldn't laugh or cry.

Well, well, it's really right.

This is indeed the somewhat stubborn, somewhat paranoid, and somewhat silly Qingli girl he misses almost every day.

……

"By the way, if you still don't believe it's me, I'll show you this."

The two reunited, and Qin Lang hurriedly took out a blue purse from his body.

The girl in black glanced at it, propped her hands on his chest, and broke away from his arms a little, her wet eyes were cold:

"Who sewed it for you..."

"What?"

"Purse... Who sewed it for you..."

"Harm, I bought the one myself, you have to ask who sewed it, that is the old lady on the street in Jianping County."

Qin Lang explained, Gu Jin said "oh", and then leaned back into his arms.

Then he opened it again, looked up and asked:

"The old lady... Isn't it pretty..."

“……”

Qin Lang wanted to laugh a little, but on the surface, in order to tease her, he deliberately turned his face slightly, put his purse back, and let go of the hand holding her soft back:

"It's hard to reunite, but Miss Sumire is patronizing these who don't have, hehe..."

After saying that, Qin Lang looked like he was about to leave, but unexpectedly, he was dragged by the girl.

“？”

Qin Lang twisted his face and looked at her:

"What?"

“……”

She stood there, staring at Qin Lang's sleeve and pulling it all the time.

"Tsk, speak..."

“……”

Gu Jin didn't say anything, her delicate lips pursed again, and when Qin Lang called her for the third time, she finally raised her eyelids, allowing Qin Lang to see clearly the thick mist in her stubborn eyes.

"Don't, don't! Sumire, Sumire, I'm kidding. ”

Seems to be a bit of a joke...

Qin Lang smiled bitterly twice in a panic, where did he dare to pretend, hurriedly returned to her, and immediately hugged the girl in black again and tightly into the crook of his arm.

And the girl in black, whose emotions had already been brewing in place, couldn't help but bury her little face on him hard after all, and let out a cry that made Qin Lang feel distressed:

"Qin Lang... Qin Lang, I miss you... Sumire misses you so much..."
