The store owner hid half of his body behind the pillar. He was stunned for a few seconds when he heard Muye's shout, and then he let out a sound, and then his head started to work.

"Knife, knife, I... I'll look for it."

The store owner's face was extremely melancholy and tangled.

Makino leisurely looked at the angry faces in front of him, and smiled.

One shouted, "How can you let him go?"

"Why did you release it?" Makino asked back.

The man was choked immediately, his body trembling with anger, he wanted to go forward, but because his brother was in the hands of Mu Ye, he didn't dare to act rashly.

Kill a thousand swords!

Makino looked at their tangled faces with a smile, and said, "It's better to be quiet with your mouth, so as not to cause a fishy body...Since it's useless, it's better to cut off your tongue."

After he finished speaking, he glanced out of the corner of his eye and shouted, "Bring it here."

The shop owner was holding a dagger in his hand, and was hesitating whether to go there, when he heard Makino shouting, all the worries in his head disappeared immediately, he walked over quickly, and handed over the dagger tremblingly.

The fiery eyes of those people were glued to him, wishing they could cut him into pieces.

The store owner felt distressed.

Makino took the dagger.

"Do not--"

Several people shouted suddenly, watching the dagger getting closer and closer to their brother's mouth.

The dagger stopped a centimeter away from the man's mouth.

Makino said casually, "Forget it, I don't want to see your tongue."

After finishing speaking, he put down his hand, reached into his arms and fiddled for a while, took out a bottle of something, poured out a white pill, grabbed the man's mouth, and threw it in.

He let go.

"Li Mu—!"

The man leaped forward, kneeling on the ground with a bang.

Seeing this, the few people around rushed over and surrounded him.

The crisp sound of kneeling made Xi Le frowned, which sounded painful.

Makino said condescendingly: "Do you understand now? But... the consequences of speaking out are unavoidable, you will only be in pain for a few days, and I will forgive you mercifully."

After speaking, he threw the dagger back to the shop owner, and then turned around neatly.

The person who was fed the medicine by Makino strangled his neck like crazy, with a very painful expression on his face.

"what--"

Those people raised their heads, looked at Mu Ye's back with anger and fear, and their hearts moved.

One stood up abruptly, and with a knife in his hand, he rushed towards Makino, cutting straight for his heart!

Xi Le opened his mouth slightly and shouted, "Muye, behind you!"

It seemed that Makino had eyes on his back. The moment the knife stabbed him, he turned his footsteps, floated to the back of the attacker, and slapped him.

The attacker was thrown forward several meters by the strong palm wind, his mouth opened wide, and blood sprayed all over his face.

Seeing this, Xi Le heaved a sigh of relief.

Makino said coldly, "I can't die."

After all, he walked towards Xi Le, completely ignoring the eyes of the people behind him who wished to cut him to pieces.

Makino said, "Get on the horse, let's go."

He stretched out his hand and hugged Xi Le, and the two of them jumped onto the horse.

Xi Le's eyes flickered, and his vision became higher.

He sat in front of Makino, with his back against Makino's chest.

Makino wrapped his arms around his waist and pulled the reins.

The horse raised its hooves wisely and galloped away.

The two injured, the five who held grudges, and the trembling shop owner were left behind.

Xi Le and Mu Ye rode south all the way, and Xi Le had a panoramic view of the scenery along the way.

Xi Le said with emotion: "The scenery is nice."

He took a deep breath of fresh air.

It was already dusk at the end of the curtain, and the dust rolled up by the horse was left far behind.

The two of them were not in a hurry, so when the horse was tired from running, they stopped to rest somewhere.

Along the way are desolate woods, sparsely populated.

Two days passed, and it was gradually getting dark. Xi Le and Mu Ye were worried about resting at night, so they stopped under a tree.

After the horse stopped, Xi Le slowly got off the horse.

Makino tied the reins to a tree, and then turned back.

He said, "It's getting dark, are you hungry?"

Xi Le nodded. He took off his bag and dug in it.

Seeing this, Makino said, "I have a good meal tonight."

Xi Le stopped what he was doing, raised his head and looked at Mu Ye, he just picked up dry food, so he had to put it back.

Xi Le asked: "What to eat?"

He looked around, but he couldn't think of anything to fill his stomach here.

Makino smiled and said, "I'll go hunt some rabbits and come back, you wait here."

After that, he handed Xi Le a dagger, and said: "Run if you can't beat it, you know?"

Xi Le was slightly stunned, suddenly unable to laugh or cry.

"Come on, I'll run."

After hearing the words, Makino turned around and walked towards the depths of the forest.

Xi Le watched his back until it disappeared before his eyes, and then began to prepare for some barbecues.

He brought back some twigs and logs, put them all together, and sat down, leaning against a tree.

Not long after, Makino came back, and he brought back a hare that had obviously been disemboweled and cleaned up.

Xi Le looked at him and hurriedly stood up.

Makino put the hare down, chipped a few pieces of wood, lit a fire, skewered the prepared hare, set it on the fire, and roasted it patiently.

At this time, the sky was completely dark, and only the bright red of the flames flickered in the forest.

The firewood made a crackling sound of being burned.

Xi Le sat in front of the fire, resting his head on his hands and looking at the flickering fire.

After a while, the smell of meat wafted out.

The tip of Xi Le's nose trembled a few times, staring greedily at the roasted golden hare.

He swallowed unconsciously. After eating dry rations for several days, his sense of taste was a little numb. It was time to find something delicious to stimulate.

After seeing the anxious face, Makino looked at it and said, "It's not baked through yet, so wait a little longer."

Xi Le swallowed and hummed.

Sitting next to Xi Le, Makino smiled when he saw how greedy he was.

He asked, "You haven't eaten, have you?"

Xi Le nodded hurriedly, humming.

Makino was slightly taken aback, and sneered.

Makino: "Then what were you doing the first half of your life?"

Xi Le thought for a while and said, "Be idle."

Makino laughed and said, "What about the rest of your life?"

Hearing this, Xi Le was stunned for a few seconds, then turned to look at Makino.

The two were so close that Xi Le saw Makino's eyes at a glance.

The two looked at each other, Xi Le lowered his head and lowered his eyes: "I don't know."

Makino looked at him, his eyes darkened, he stretched out his hand, put it on the back of Xi Le's head, tilted his head and kissed it slowly.

Xi Le opened his eyes wide and looked at the handsome face that suddenly enlarged, and curled up his hands unconsciously.

His lips touched something soft, and Xi Le slowly closed his eyes.

Flames flickered on the faces of the two of them.

The black shadows on the ground intertwined.

Suddenly, Xi Le seemed to smell something, he stretched out his hand to push it, turned his head sideways, panted and said, "It seems familiar..."

Makino raised his eyebrows helplessly, and there was still some crystal liquid on his lips.

He let go of Xi Le, stood up, and went to fetch the roasted rabbit.

Xi Le reached out and touched the rabbit, feeling a little hot.

The two waited for a while, and then wolfed down the rabbit. The rabbit meat was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a very good taste.

Xi Le leaned back, with one pair of hands propped behind her, one hand stroking her stomach, and belching contentedly.

He licked his mouth: "delicious."

Makino: "There is still a chance, next time we will hit a few more."

Xi Le smiled: "Okay."

Makino put away the mess, then added some wood to the fire, stood up, walked towards the horse, and fed it some water.

Xi Le leaned against the tree and closed his eyes to rest. After a while, he felt himself being hugged.

He opened his eyes slightly, and after realizing that it was Makino, he closed them in peace.

The two rested next to a tree.

The flames crackled and crackled.

Before Xi Le fell asleep completely, he thought that when he got there, he must take a good bath. These days, he was really uncomfortable.

Xi Le had a dream, the dream was dark, he walked by the lake, looked sideways, the lake was dark.

Xi Le looked at the lake, and for some reason, felt guilty in his heart, and subconsciously wanted to stay away from the lake.

But his soul seemed to be out of shell, and his body was completely out of his control, so he could only watch him continue to move forward.

But all this is so real, he can see it, he can feel it, but he just can't get rid of it.

The surroundings were quiet, Xi Le didn't know how long he had been walking, it seemed endless.

Suddenly, a slight strange sound came from under his feet, Xi Le froze and stopped.

He looked down at his feet.

Suddenly, he found several long green tentacles encircling his ankles.

The shape of the thing was weird, and it was slowly twisting at this moment, firmly encircling his ankle, and the twisting degree was tightly glued to his foot, sticky and wet, soaking Xi Le's trousers, It's disgusting.

Xi Le was horrified, he suddenly raised his foot, and swung it desperately, his whole body trembling violently.

But the disgusting thing kept grabbing his feet, curled up layer by layer, and the force became heavier and heavier. Xi Le watched this scene in horror, and then both of his feet were entangled.

Gradually, Xi Le couldn't move anymore. He felt as if there was something heavy on his feet, which was very heavy.

He knew it was a dream, but it was all so real.

He looked at the green tentacles protruding from the lake constantly around his feet, and took a deep breath.

Xi Le only wished that he could wake up now!

The disgusting things circled around layer by layer, and slowly spread to Xi Le's thigh.

Xi Le's face was filled with anxiety, but she couldn't move her body, she was helpless.

Suddenly, Xi Le's pupils shrank suddenly, his body tilted, and he fell on his back to the ground with a loud bang.

Before Xi Le had time to rub the back of his throbbing head, he felt a force tugging at his feet, and then Xi Le watched helplessly as he was pulled into the lake!

Xi Le's eyes suddenly widened. The moment he entered the water, he almost wanted to die. Who knew what was in the water.

On the surface, it looks very strange, a piece of black.

But Xi Le didn't have time to think about it. The moment he entered the water, he quickly closed his eyes and sank uncontrollably.

At this time, Xi Le heard a strange sound from around.

"Ugh-"

He frowned, belatedly realizing that he could breathe in water.

Xi Le opened his eyes subconsciously, and was startled by a head that suddenly floated over.

Xi Le leaned back his upper body, watching the swarthy head float away from his eyes.

He looked around, and his body froze instantly, because he found himself surrounded by a large piece of head!

Those heads were floating unsteadily in the water, with their dark eye sockets facing Xi Le.

Looking at Xi Le, his hair stood on end. I don't know if it was Xi Le's illusion. For a moment, he saw those heads and jaws move.

Xi Le blinked and looked over, but found nothing unusual.

Xi Le frowned and looked around. The lake was very dark, but for some reason, it was strange that Xi Le could see those heads clearly.

It was a strange dream.

From just now, it seemed that he was the only one left in the whole world, and he was still in such a strange and unpredictable environment.

The feeling of loneliness enveloped Xi Le instantly.

The tentacles wrapped around his feet were still clinging to him, Xi Le was so angry that he stretched out his hand and pulled it hard, but it didn't help, and he was still trapped.

Xi Le was floating in this piece of water, surrounded by darkness, he looked down and found that the bottom was bottomless, maybe it was too dark for him to see clearly.

Xi Le's heart was beating violently, and he wanted to run out, the sound of thumping sound seemed to be close at hand.

He lamented in his heart when in the end he would wake up.

Xi Le floated in the water like this for a long time, until he slowly closed his eyes.

At this time, some abnormalities began to occur around.

I saw those heads still surrounding Xi Le seemed to feel something, and screamed sharply: "Woo——"

They jumped up and down one after another, made a mess, bumped into each other, and there was a sudden bang bang bang sound. The scene was once very chaotic, as if something dangerous was floating towards this side, so they wanted to leave this place immediately.

In the blink of an eye, only Xi Le was left floating in the water.

Single and shadow.

Suddenly, Xi Le was woken up by a rattling laughter. He opened his eyes suddenly, and was shocked to find that a green head appeared before him at some point, and there were long green objects wrapped around the head. .

That weird laugh came from the swarthy mouth of that head.

Xi Le looked at the weird picture close at hand and screamed.

"what--"

He struggled violently, his hands ruthlessly grabbed the tentacles that were holding him, his throat felt uncomfortable, and he made a vomit.

"Quack quack—"

"Quack quack—"

The thing was frightened by him, it backed up a few meters, and let out a few weird laughs in a row. Its eye sockets were black and hollowed out, leaving two dark holes.

Xi Le rolled his eyes, his face turned blue and white, trembling with fright, goosebumps popped out instantly.

He watched as the head tilted, and a piece of tentacles underneath moved accordingly.

Xi Le vomited a few times after thinking that what was entangled with him was the tentacles attached to that head.

"Quack quack -" the head floated towards Xi Le.

Xi Le's eyes widened suddenly, and he shouted loudly: "Don't come here! Don't come here! Ahhh——"

That head seemed to understand Xi Le's words, and stopped moving. It tilted left and right, as if it was puzzled.

Xi Le took a deep breath and said tremblingly, "Don't come here..."

Xi Le felt weak for a while, almost unable to hold on.

During the few seconds when Xi Le lost his mind, the head looked at him and floated towards him curiously.

After Xi Le came back to his senses, his pupils gradually filled with the figure of that head. He rolled his eyes and fainted from fright.

The green head floated in front of Xi Le, fluttering up and down, and looked at Xi Le.

It seemed to lean forward in satisfaction, and there seemed to be something flickering in the dark eye sockets, and then the inside of it lit up, flashing an orange-yellow light.

Xi Le's shadow was reflected in it.

The long strip of tentacles under the head moved accordingly, and the tentacles that were originally wrapped around Xi Le's feet slowly fell off.

Xi Le's whole body was loosened.

He closed his eyes, completely unaware of all this.

The head floated in front of Xi Le, and jumped up to be level with Xi Le.

It stopped for a while, then floated around Xi Le, and when it came back, it shook excitedly.

Xi Le frowned unconsciously, as if sensing something.

There was a rattling laugh from the head.

It seemed to be very excited, and the dim light in its eye sockets flickered very fiercely.

It floated close to Xi Le and leaned against Xi Le's chest.

If Xi Le wakes up now, Duo Tuo will be frightened and faint again.

The head was tightly against Xi Le's chest, and the long tentacles underneath swayed in the water waves, and then slowly wrapped around Xi Le's body, and the two were tightly fitted together.

Perhaps it is the best choice for Xi Le to pass out early.

Slowly, a slight change occurred on Xi Le's chest.

……

"Ho ho ho-"

Xi Le gasped for breath suddenly, and he sat up straight in fright, the horrifying picture from his dream still clearly remained in his mind.

Xi Le stared at the ground in a daze, reached out and patted his chest, letting out a sigh of relief.

His body was still a little stiff, and at some point, a lot of sweat overflowed his face, making it sticky.

It was still dark at this time, and the early morning fog shrouded the woods.

There was a silence in the woods.

Xi Le's movement was not small, and Makino was naturally awakened.

He quickly opened his eyes and looked towards Xi Le.

When he saw Xi Le's pale face, he was stunned.

"What's wrong? What did you dream about?" Makino leaned over and asked.

Makino's question brought back Xi Le's mind, and Xi Le belatedly wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand.

His voice was very weak: "...I don't know what that is either."

Hearing this, Makino frowned slightly, put his hand on Xi Le's shoulder, and lowered his head to look at Xi Le's face.

Xi Le lowered his head, his eyes drooping slightly.

His body softened, and he leaned directly on Makino's shoulder.

Makino was stunned for a moment, changed the direction of his hands, and hugged Xi Le from behind.

Xi Le leaned her head on Makino's shoulder, closed her eyes, and tried to breathe as calmly as possible.

Makino slightly lifted the strands of hair around Xi Le's ears with his fingers, and was not in a hurry to get Xi Le's answer.

The two leaned together quietly.

Looking at the quietly brightening sky, Makino's eyes flickered slightly.

He whispered, "Are you okay?"

Makino reached out and touched Xi Le's face, pointing to a sticky paste, he paused slightly, and pursed his mouth lightly.

Xi Le nodded slightly, and said slowly: "I dreamed that I was walking by the lake, and there was no one around, and you were not there. As I was walking, I was grabbed by something protruding from the lake. , pulled into the water..."

The experience in the dream was very clear, he remembered what he saw, but...it did not include what happened after he fell into a coma.

The point is...he didn't know what happened when he passed out.

He had an intuition that that must not be a pleasant thing.

Thinking of that turquoise head, Xi Le felt a chill, and sour water surged in his stomach.

Xi Le talked for a while, then stopped for a few seconds before continuing.

Makino listened quietly, playing with Xi Le's temple hair with his fingertips.

Xi Le finished the last sentence, looked at the rising sun in the distance, and fell silent.

Neither of them spoke, and after a few minutes, Makino said, "Are you okay?"

Xi Le was slightly stunned, this was the second time that Makino asked him this question.

Xi Le pursed her lips lightly and said, "It's all right."

Isn't it just a dream, it's all fake, Xi Le comforted himself like this.

But...it's too real.

Xi Le wants to cry but has no tears.

Makino looked down at his bitter face and smiled.

"It's all fake, what are you worried about?" Makino said, after a pause, he continued, "It's time for you to practice your courage."

When Xi Le heard this, he silently retracted the emotion he had just felt towards Muye in his heart, because he thought that Muye's conscience had found sympathy for him.

The two sat quietly for a while.

Xi Le patted his chest, calmly.

Suddenly, Xi Le seemed to have thought of something, he stretched his hand into his bosom, suddenly, his hand froze, and his eyes widened slightly.

This, what is this?

Xi Le felt something strange touched his fingertips.

He hurriedly pulled the thing out.

Seeing the true face of that thing, Xi Le took a deep breath.

Makino watched the whole scene, he frowned slightly as he looked at the things in Xi Le's hand.

"What is this?" Makino reached out and touched it.

Xi Le frowned: "I don't know, I don't know where this thing came from, and how did it get into my arms?"

Shi Le looked puzzled.

I saw that what Xi Le took out just now was a strangely shaped stone, the key is...it is turquoise.

It's no wonder that when Xi Le saw it for the first time, he instantly remembered the turquoise head in his dream last night.

Xi Le threw the stone away reflexively, goosebumps popped out instantly, and his scalp tingled.

Xi Le secretly thought: No way, these two things should have nothing to do with each other...

"Huh?" Makino said, "It's green."

He picked up the stone, touched it with his fingers, and felt a warm, warm feeling. He didn't know if it was the result of the warmth in Xi Le's arms.

Makino was puzzled: "I don't even know when this thing got into your clothes."

Xi Le: "...I don't know either." Even the parties involved don't know, how could Mu Ye know before him.

The two looked at the weird stone, but neither could see any results.

from where?when will you arrive?

Neither of them knew.

The surface of the stone was rough for a while, Xi Le stretched out a finger and touched it lightly, but found nothing wrong.

This is weird...

In the end, the two gave up, tossing and turning all the same, and there was no problem.

Xi Le looked at the stone in his hand, looked at the color, and instantly remembered the head in his dream.

Xi Le had a chill, but still couldn't escape the shadow of the dream, and handed the stone to Muye.

Makino looked at him, the corners of his mouth curled up.

Xi Le's face became hot for a while, he looked away, and raised the stone: "You take it."

Makino looked at him amusedly.

Feeling Makino's hot eyes, Xi Le felt guilty for a while, and rubbed Makino's hand with a stone.

It didn't take long for Makino to take the stone and put it in his arms.

After seeing it out of the corner of Xi Le's eyes, he was slightly relieved.

But... I don't know if it was Xi Le's illusion, he seemed to see that the stone moved when Makino stuffed it into his arms just now, as if... it changed its face.

I hope it's his illusion...

Xi Le paused for a moment, then shook his head.

The two ate something to fill their stomachs before they stood up, patted their clothes, shook off the dust, and started on the road again.

The two galloped their horses and stopped to rest at noon. Makino went to hunt a rabbit and came back.

At noon, the two had another meal of roasted rabbit meat, which satisfied Xi Le for a while, and he temporarily threw the dirty things in the dream last night into a corner.

Xi Le also hopes to forget everything he experienced in his dream last night, it was all fake anyway, so why not let his memory be a little blurred.

Shi Le hoped so.

Xi Le wiped her mouth and watched Makino tidy up.

The two took a break for a while, and then went on the road again.

Xi Le looked at the surrounding scenery and took a deep breath of the fresh air in the wild.

All the way south, two days later, the two finally arrived.

The ancients praised the beauty of the south of the Yangtze River, and the scenery is old.

Makino led the horse and entered the city with Xi Le.

The city was buzzing with people, it was very lively.

Makino temporarily placed the horse in a place, planning to rest here for a few days before thinking about the treasure map.

Xi Le didn't have any objections either, so why not take a rest, it could just sweep away the tiredness of riding a horse for the past few days.

After running around on the horse for a few days, Xi Le's tender inner thighs were worn out with some red marks, which were stinging slightly at this time.

Xi Le talked to Mu Ye.

Makino looked at him and said, "Pampered and spoiled."

He smiled, hooked Xi Le's shoulder with one hand, and led him towards the market.

He leaned close to Xi Le's ear as he walked, and whispered, "I'll rub the medicine for you tonight."

Xi Le was slightly stunned, speechless for a while, and his eyebrows twitched helplessly.

The streets are crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder.

Xi Le and the two walked slowly, trying to stay as far away from the people around them as possible.

Xi Le looked around curiously, unable to restrain her excitement.

On the contrary, Makino was very calm, with a handsome face expressionless.

With one arm around Xi Le's shoulder, he looked like a beautiful picture of brothers and sisters respecting each other.

Very candid.

The people passing by glanced at them, and frowned in disgust when they saw Xi Le.

Most of the eyes were on Makino's face.

There was surprise in his eyes.

Makino's eyes darkened slightly, and the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed, regretting making Xi Le so ugly.

To despise Xi Le is to mock him.

Makino slowed down, turned his head and said, "They are watching you."

Makino looked at him with heavy eyes.

After Xi Le saw it, she didn't take it seriously, and said indifferently: "What they see is not the real me, let's just treat it as a fake face, hehe."

Makino was slightly stunned, and after a while, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

Also, how could the person he was looking for disappoint him.

Xi Le didn't know the little Jiujiu in Muye's heart. He was currently attracted by the lively scene around him, and his mind was firmly fixed on it.

There are street performers, and there are those who yell and sell things.

At this time, Xi Le felt the huge gap between the village and the town.

Especially in the villages, there is a big gap, and the feelings are different.

Xi Le's eyes rolled around, he looked at the excitement around him, and Mu Ye looked at him who was watching the excitement, and they had a tacit understanding.

Suddenly, Xi Le didn't know what he saw. He stopped, then tugged on Mu Ye's sleeve, and pulled him over there: "It seems to be very lively over there, let's go and have a look."

Makino didn't struggle, and let himself be pulled over.

I saw that there was a place for performing arts.

Xi Le led Mu Ye to the outside, and instead of squeezing in, she just made do with the gaps in the crowd and watched.

There was a juggler playing with the torch in his hand, and he did several tricks, which aroused everyone's amazement.

Xi Le was not surprised either. Every time there was a wonderful moment, he would take a deep breath and hang his eyelids firmly on that person.

"Wow—"

There was a commotion.

After the game is over, the people around feel good and start to invest money.

Xi Le consulted Makino's opinion, and rewarded him with a little satisfaction, which is a rare skill.

The people around dispersed as soon as they should, and Xi Le also came back.

"Let's go." Makino said so.

Xi Le nodded and hummed.

Leave with Makino.

After the two figures disappeared in place, a man stepped out of the crowd.

I saw him with a square face, big eyes, nine feet tall, and a very strong figure, which made him stand out in the crowd.

He stared at Xi Le's leaving back, and followed slowly.

found it.

It's just... that boy's face obviously changed, but how could he be sure that that person was that boy?

Doubts flashed in the man's mind for a few seconds, but he didn't bother with this question in the end. Anyway, he knew the identity of the man the first time he saw him.

This is also a bit strange...

At this time, Xi Le still didn't know that he was felt to be out of identity again.

He was eating and drinking wine with Muye on the second floor of the restaurant.

It is indeed one of the best restaurants in the neighborhood, with rich and delicious dishes.

For the two who had been sleeping in the open for several days, it was quite a temptation.

After Xi Le was full, he began to drink sake in small sips, listening to the stories of the storyteller below, feeling very comfortable.

Every time I come to the restaurant, there will always be a storyteller.

"I don't know why, but the treasure map that has been circulated in the rivers and lakes has never been found..."

Xi Le was taken aback when he heard this.

Why every time I listen to the story, I can always hear him, Xi Le smiled wryly.

Makino raised his eyebrows slightly, and touched Xi Le's wine glass with his wine glass.

"drink."

Upon hearing this, Xi Le smiled and said, "Drink."

It was noon at this time, and more and more people came to eat in the restaurant, and it was very crowded. Fortunately, Xi Le and the two came a step earlier and found a good place to sit down and comfort their stomachs, otherwise they would have been here at this moment. It takes a lot of time to find another restaurant.

At this time, a man walked into the lobby.

He has a stern face, is dressed in a black robe, and has an air of not allowing anyone to approach him, making him very conspicuous in the lobby.

Xi Le originally looked at the storyteller in the audience, but after noticing him, he looked at him a few more times curiously, just as he was about to look away.

Coincidentally, the man suddenly raised his head and caught sight of him.

Xi Le was slightly taken aback.

Sitting beside him, Makino saw the man from his line of sight.

He coughed softly.

Xi Le came back to his senses in an instant, he shook his head slightly, then turned to look at Makino.

Makino sneered, "Why are you looking at him?"

Xi Le pursed her lips: "It's nothing, it just... feels weird."

That's right, when Xi Le saw the man's eyes, a strange feeling flashed in his heart, as if...he had seen that man somewhere, but he didn't have any impression in his mind.

Makino's eyes flickered slightly, and he glanced down the hall, not surprisingly, he found that the man had disappeared.

He didn't continue to ask, but changed the subject: "Are you full?"

Xi Le nodded.

"Let's go, go to rest." Makino stood up and said to Xi Le.

Xi Le hummed and stood up.

After the two of them had enough to eat, they planned to go to bed when they had nothing to do.

But by coincidence, when Xi Le and the two were going downstairs, they bumped into the man in black just now.

He lowered his head and was about to go to the second floor, so the three of them met on the stairs.

Xi Le looked up, but the man kept his head down, and he didn't know if he didn't look up on purpose.

Makino glanced at him, pulled Xi Le, and said, "Let's go."

Xi Le blinked and silently moved away.

Xi Le passed by the man.

I don't know if it was Xi Le's illusion, but he always felt that he heard him laugh when he passed by the man.

Xi Le was taken aback for a moment, and stopped in his tracks.

Makino naturally also noticed Xi Le's strangeness.

He glanced back at the man and said, "What?"

"No..." Xi Le shook his head, then he said uncertainly, "I just heard that man laugh."

Ever since meeting this man, Xi Le has always had a faint feeling of weirdness.

Thinking of this, Xi Le frowned slightly.

Makino sighed softly and said, "That's because you misheard."

Xi Le looked at him, uncertain: "...Really?"

Makino nodded firmly.

"All right……"

Xi Le shook his head.

So the two didn't continue to struggle with this issue, and left the restaurant.

And the man who went up to the second floor found a place to sit down, then turned his head to look at the back of Xi Le and the two leaving.

Suddenly, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he looked at Xi Le's back with a half-smile, with a strange and unpredictable expression on his face.

At this time, Jiu Ji came to his table.

Without raising his head, the man waved his hand directly to let her go away.

Jiu Ji bit her lip and left unwillingly.

Why is business so rough today.

Just now, she ran into two men who rejected her, and now she ran into another one.

This can't help but hit her self-confidence very much.

"Hey, little beauty, come here—"

The man at the table not far away waved and shouted when he saw the beauty being rejected.

The sound resounded through the second floor.

Jiu Ji's eyes were delighted, she snorted, and gave the man a hard look before leaving.

The man lowered his head and sneered ironically.

Not long after, his order arrived.

The man finished eating unhurriedly, paid and left the restaurant.

He stood at the door of the restaurant, looking around strangely.

Suddenly, he looked in one direction, laughed, and walked over there.

It is said that after Xi Le and Mu Ye left the restaurant, they walked towards the inn on the other side, intending to stay there for two or three days.

It didn't take long for the two of them to arrive.
