Chapter 470 Intertwined Time and Space
As soon as he finished speaking, the man in black felt a surge of blood in his chest, and after a mouthful of blood spurted out, he completely lost his breath.
Xiao Jin still watched the man in black stand up and look in the direction he pointed.
From the slight traces left on the ground, it can be seen that people did leave in this direction.
The two officers saw Xiao Jin turning back, so they chased after him and said, "Sir, if you go this way, you will turn back. If you go down this way, you will reach the path we took to go up the mountain."
Xiao Jin said: "Just follow me."
Seeing Xiao Jin's insistence, the officials had no choice but to follow him. They only hoped that this lord would appreciate their hard work and say a few good words for them in front of Lord Wei when they returned, or at least increase their monthly wages.
After leaving the black-clothed man's sight, Su Ying took out the air motorcycle. It was easy for her to do it without wasting her energy.
She walked along the way, marking the route as she did yesterday. When she passed a small hill, she clearly felt the change in air humidity, which became drier.
Su Ying looked at a towering tree, stopped, made her own unique mark on the tree, and then continued walking forward.
She walked in front and Xiao Jin followed behind. Along the way, Xiao Jin also found some marks she left.
Xiao Jin looked at the mark on the tree and his heart couldn't help but beat wildly!
The mark left by Su Ying consisted of two symbols, one was winding like a snake, and the other was like a cup. Su Ying had told him before that this represented her!
Su Ying is still alive!
Xiao Jin was unwilling to stop at all. He used his lightness skills to chase after him, but when he caught up with a mark, he found that the mark in front of him had disappeared.
He looked around but didn't find any signs.
Xiao Jin's face was solemn. Could Su Ying disappear out of thin air?
Su Ying is really good at...
At this time, Su Ying was eating lunch in the space. Fortunately, she had stockpiled a lot of supplies in the space before, with everything to eat and drink. Even if she didn't eat, the food in here would be enough for her to eat for a long time.
When she came out of the space after eating, she happened to stray from Xiao Jin who came looking for her.
Xiao Jin didn't find Su Ying's mark in front of him, so he thought she had gone back, so he walked back.
Su Ying kept moving forward, and finally saw the trail from the drone screen before sunset.
However, this path was not the one they took to go up the mountain.
Su Ying walked to the path and raised the drone to the highest point in the sky. With the afterglow of the setting sun, she saw Luo City not far away.
She really got around it.
Su Ying did not rush forward but found a place to stay. She unfolded the detailed map that recorded the surrounding areas of Luocheng and marked the distance from the cave to here according to her current location.
After making the mark, the next thing should be handed over to professionals.
Su Ying put the drawings away with satisfaction. She didn’t want to eat fish tonight. She wanted to eat beef.
There was cuts of beef in the space, and she just had to get it out.
She remembered Uncle He saying that the most delicious part of the cow's meat was the one at the innermost part of the shank, which was very crispy and not dry at all. In order to fill herself up, Su Ying took out several pieces at once, sliced them with a dagger, and then went to pick up some firewood to make a fire and cook.
The finest ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods.
Su Ying put water in a pot and threw the beef into the pot as soon as the water boiled. After counting silently for ten seconds, she took the pot off the shelf and took the beef out of the pot.
She scooped some of the spicy sauce made by Uncle He from the jar and poured it into the bowl. She dipped the boiled beef into the sauce and took a bite. Su Ying felt extremely satisfied.
After taking a bite of beef, even the dry food tastes delicious.
Su Ying ate almost the entire pot of beef.
After eating, she leaned against a tree, burped, and let out a comfortable breath.
People tend to doze off after eating. Su Ying looked at the sky and planned to take a nap in the space, and then rush back to the city after waking up.
Su Ying stood up and put out the fire, and after making sure there was no open flame, she returned to the space.
The moment the fire was extinguished, several figures walked towards this side.
Xiao Jin smelled the scent of fireworks just now, and he followed the smell to find the person, but he was still a step too late, and the person had already left.
Xiao Jin touched the fire, but was forced back by the high temperature before he even touched it.
Xiao Jin stood up slowly, his brows twisted into a shape of a "川" (river).
"Sir, the mountain road is too dangerous at night. Why don't you find a place to stay?" The two officers were exhausted after following Xiao Jin all the way and could not walk anymore.
Xiao Jin glanced at them and nodded, "Let's stay here."
"Oh, yes. Eh? Why is there a fire here? Has anyone been here before? I'll see if I can light a fire by blowing on it. It's still quite cold in the mountains at night."
The officer picked up some firewood nearby and blew up the fire, then carefully re-lit the fire.
"My lord, please eat something."
Xiao Jin took the dry food and started eating, wondering whether he was walking too fast or too slow, and why he couldn't catch up with the people.
"My lord, please take a nap. I will stand guard for you."
Xiao Jin nodded, but he didn't really fall asleep. He just sat cross-legged to meditate and rest his mind.
Su Ying would never have thought that the distance between her and Xiao Jin was only one space.
Xiao Jin sat outside until dawn before opening his eyes.
"Where is this place?"
The officer woke up with a start when he heard Xiao Jin's voice, "Ah? My Lord, this is the road we took to go up the mountain, but the place where we went up the mountain is closer to Luocheng, and this place is farther away."
Xiao Jin looked in the direction of Luocheng. Was she going back to the city? Had she finished her work here?
Thinking of this, Xiao Jin decided to go back to the city to take a look.
"Well, let's go back to the city."
The officer was very confused, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions and quickly walked ahead to lead the way.
In the space, Su Ying yawned and sat up.
When the two little wolf cubs saw Su Ying wake up, they came over and nuzzled her, humming as if asking her to play with them.
Su Ying teased them, pulled their tails and spun them around in circles, then ate something before coming out of the space.
She was about to leave when she suddenly realized that the fire she had lit last night was still emitting white smoke.
This shouldn't be the case. She had clearly put out the fire when she entered the space yesterday. Even if it wasn't completely extinguished at that time, it couldn't have burned until morning.
She walked over and tested the temperature of the fire, which was obviously extinguished not long ago. She looked at the footprints around and confirmed that someone had stayed here last night.
Who would come here in the middle of nowhere late at night?
