1675. Chapter 1675 Dancing on the tip of a knife eight
At midnight.
In an ordinary private house.
A man and a woman were staring at each other.
"I asked, why did you come to my room in the middle of the night?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
Miss Xiaojiu lowered her head, avoiding Ma Xiaoyao's gaze, and whispered: "Tell me...will there be snakes crawling in at night..."
"Snake?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned, and then he laughed: "After doing this for a long time, you are afraid of snakes..."
"Okay, please stop laughing at me." Miss Xiao Jiu glared at Ma Xiaoyao with dissatisfaction: "I decided to sleep in your room tonight."
"Uh? Sleep in my room?" The smile on Ma Xiaoyao's face suddenly solidified: "What about me? Where do you want me to go?"
"Of course you are in this room too."
"Also...you mean...the two of us sleep in the same room?"
"Yes."
"Are you mistaken? How can we, a man and a woman, sleep in the same room? If you want a man, go and look for him outside. Don't try to trick me. I, Ma Xiaoyao, am very pure."
"What are you talking about!" Miss Xiaojiu's face darkened: "The reason why I let you stay is just to let you keep an eye on me. If a snake really crawls in, you should throw it out quickly. Don't let me
I saw it, otherwise I won’t be able to sleep that night.”
"Oh, that's it." Ma Xiaoyao looked at Miss Xiaojiu with a strange expression: "How did you sleep at home before? Is there someone watching over you?"
Miss Xiaojiu shook her head: "My home is very safe. Animals like snakes cannot crawl in... Do you have any other questions? If not, then I will stay."
"Hehe..." Ma Xiaoyao chuckled: "When a man and a woman live alone in the same room, something will easily happen."
"Didn't you say you were pure just now? Why are you talking nonsense now?" Miss Xiao Jiu hummed, "Get up, I'll sleep on the bed tonight, and you can make the floor yourself."
"Why? This bed is mine, okay?"
"I am a weak woman and I am still sick. Can't you just let me go?"
"Even if I let you, there must be a standard, right?"
"I find that you are too small-minded. Aren't you just building a floor? Are you so fussy about it?"
…
After arguing for a long time, Ma Xiaoyao finally lost.
"I'm just too soft-hearted." Ma Xiaoyao jumped out of bed with his clothes in his arms, then found an old cloth and spread it on the ground: "It's been eight lifetimes since I met you."
"You're feeling depressed, aren't you?" Miss Xiao Jiu smiled and said, "I'll teach you a way to relieve depression, which is to think more about gold mines. It's worth being a little angry now. When you get three gold mines, you can become a gold mine."
The super rich will never have to worry about money again."
"Hmph!" Ma Xiaoyao snorted softly: "You'd better not lie to me, otherwise... I won't let you go even if I chase you to the ends of the earth."
"Take your heart into your stomach. The three gold mines may be very important to you, but they are really insignificant to me." Miss Xiao Jiu said with a smile: "As long as you send me home safely, I will honor it immediately.
I promise you three gold mines."
"Remember what you said." Ma Xiaoyao lay on the ground, covered himself with clothes, then closed his eyes: "Okay, go to sleep."
With Ma Xiaoyao watching over her, Miss Xiaojiu could finally sleep peacefully. No, not long after, Miss Xiaojiu fell into a deep sleep.
…
The two stayed in the village for three days, and they continued on their way until Miss Jiu's cold and fever were completely cured.
The rest of the journey went relatively smoothly, and almost nothing happened that made Ma Xiaoyao depressed.
Ten days later.
The two walked into a desert.
"I said, where is your home?" Ma Xiaoyao couldn't help but ask: "First I crossed the grassland, then I crossed the mountains, and now I'm crossing the desert again... Isn't your home too far away?"
"It's not far." Miss Xiao Jiu looked into the distance: "As long as we cross this desert again, we can see my home."
"Really?" Ma Xiaoyao seemed to not believe what Miss Xiaojiu said.
"Of course it's true." Miss Xiaojiu nodded firmly.
"Then hurry up and get on your way." Ma Xiaoyao urged.
Miss Xiao Jiu pondered for a moment, and then said: "There may be dangers on the next journey, you must be prepared to face the dangers."
"Danger?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned: "What danger?"
"Someone may come to kill me." Miss Xiaojiu said slowly.
"Kill you?" Ma Xiaoyao's expression changed: "Who wants to kill you? Is it your enemy?"
Miss Xiao Jiu shook her head, and then nodded again.
"What do you mean?" Ma Xiaoyao didn't understand: "You shake your head and nod again, what do you mean?"
"Things are a bit complicated, and I can't explain it to you now." Miss Xiaojiu said, "You just need to know that someone will come to kill me." At this point, Miss Xiaojiu added: "When I get home,
, I will explain it to you in detail."
Ma Xiaoyao curled his lips: "Since you don't want to say it, I won't ask...but you have to tell me one thing clearly! How strong is the person who killed you...?"
"Strength?" Miss Xiao Jiu raised her head and glanced at Ma Xiaoyao: "Don't worry, their strength is very poor and they won't pose much of a threat to you."
"Them?" Ma Xiaoyao heard something unusual: "Are there many people who want to kill you?"
"I can't tell." Miss Xiaojiu shook her head: "It might be one person, it might be two people, it might be more... But don't worry, even if there are more people, they can't threaten you.
"
"Why 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 Xiao Jiu pretended to be relaxed and said with a smile: "Okay, don't think too much, just hurry up and hurry up, as long as
If we are careful and careful, nothing will happen."
Ma Xiaoyao pondered for a moment, then raised his head and stared at Miss Xiaojiu: "Tell me the truth, who are you?"
"I'm sorry, I can't tell you yet." Miss Xiaojiu shook her head: "But don't worry, I will explain my identity to you when I get home."
"Why can't you tell me? What do you have to hide?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"Don't ask anymore, I really can't tell you now." Miss Xiaojiu said with a bitter smile: "Don't force me, I promise you, I will tell you everything when I get home.
.”
Ma Xiaoyao took a deep look at Miss Xiaojiu: "Listen carefully, if I encounter an enemy that I can't deal with, I will run away without hesitation. When the time comes, it has nothing to do with me whether you live or die."
After saying this, Ma Xiaoyao sped up and walked forward.
There was an unnatural look on Miss Xiao Jiu's face, but she quickly covered it up. She secretly prayed in her heart: God, please show mercy and let me return home smoothly, please!
…
Seven days later.
The two walked out of the desert, and then they saw an endless stretch of cities. Each city was very tall. From a distance, they looked like giants holding up the sky.
"What a magnificent city!" Ma Xiaoyao praised: "Miss Xiaojiu, is your home in front of you?"
"This is just part of my family." Miss Xiaojiu said.
"Uh...part of it?" Ma Xiaoyao almost bit off his tongue: "You...what do you mean?"
"Let's go home with me. I will tell you everything when we get to the destination." Miss Xiao Jiu walked forward with a smile.
Ma Xiaoyao followed behind with a face full of suspicion, and kept muttering in her heart: So many cities are just part of her home? 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 prosperous this time, and you will definitely be able to get the three gold mines!
Maybe it was very close to home, so Miss Xiao Jiu relaxed her vigilance. In her mind, the person who wanted to kill her would never dare to do it here, but things are often the opposite. No, the killer suddenly appeared...
…
"Run!" Miss Xiaojiu's face changed, she pulled Ma Xiaoyao and ran towards the opposite city. As long as they entered the city and revealed their identities, they would be safe, but how could the killers let them get what they wanted?
Ma Xiaoyao's face turned green. This was because he was angry: "Didn't you say that the people who killed you were very weak? But the killers who appeared were all very strong, better than me! I can't deal with any of them! You are a hateful woman.
, how dare you lie to me!"
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you." Miss Xiaojiu said with guilt on her face: "I don't dare to tell you the truth, because I know that if I tell you the truth, you will definitely abandon me and never leave me again.
You won’t escort me home!”
"You're so selfish!" Ma Xiaoyao shook off Miss Xiaojiu's hand, then turned around and ran in the other direction.
"You...come back..." Miss Xiaojiu didn't expect that Ma Xiaoyao would really abandon her, and she almost went crazy: "Ma Xiaoyao, you bastard!!!"
"It was you who deceived me first, don't blame me!" Ma Xiaoyao shouted without looking back.
"Go and kill that man alone, and the rest of you will follow me to capture the Ninth Princess!" the leading killer ordered coldly.
"Whoosh!"
A masked man immediately broke away from the team, turned into a stream of green smoke and chased Ma Xiaoyao. The remaining masked men directly surrounded Miss Xiao Jiu. These masked men were all Huang-level masters, and they could not deal with Xiao Jiu, who was in the eighth grade the day after tomorrow.
Miss Jiu is not so easy to catch.
I don’t know what the purpose was, but these masked men didn’t kill them directly. They just knocked Miss Xiaojiu unconscious, put on sacks and resisted, and walked away. They acted quickly, and by the time the soldiers guarding the city from the opposite side arrived, they would have already arrived.
