Su Yi found himself trudging for a long time on a dark and gloomy mountain road with a group of soldiers in tattered clothes.

He anxiously asked these people if they had seen Mu Jin, but those people did not respond to him. They just concentrated on moving towards the dark hillside ahead.

"Ajin, where are you?" Su Yi was extremely anxious. He couldn't wait to follow the crowd and hurried forward, trying to find Mu Jin.

However, his feet were worn out and bleeding, and the pain was unbearable, but he still could not find any trace of Mu Jin.

As he followed this group of ragged soldiers up the mountain, a dark cave suddenly appeared in front of him.

The cave seemed to emanate a mysterious power, calling them to move forward.

Just as Su Yi stepped into the dark cave, a familiar voice calling came into his ears.

"Su Yi!" The voice echoed in the silent night. The voice seemed to carry a hint of crying and a little bit of urgency.

Su Yi couldn't help but stop, but then he made up his mind to move forward.

"Su Yi!" The voice calling his name came again, this time sounding more desolate and sad.

This familiar voice was like a sharp sword that pierced Su Yi's heart and made him feel inexplicably uneasy.

He stopped and looked back in the direction of the sound. He saw the person he was thinking about standing in a bright light behind him.

"Ajin!" Su Yi happily waved to Mu Jin: "I'm here!"

Mu Jin waved at him from a distance and shouted to him, "Don't go that way, come back quickly!"

Su Yi was about to walk towards Mu Jin, but something in the cave seemed to be calling him. He turned around and said loudly to Mu Jin, "Ah Jin, wait for me for a moment. I'll go into the cave to see if there's anything rare and bring it back for you."

As soon as he turned around after speaking, he heard Mu Jin crying and shouting at him, "Don't go, Su Yi, come back."

Su Yi heard Mu Jin crying and stopped, "Ajin, don't cry." He was a little anxious, "I won't leave, I'll come over, come here, don't cry."

Su Yi was no longer attracted by the dark cave. This time he turned around without hesitation and ran towards Mu Jin.

He ran wildly, but his mind gradually became confused, and his body suddenly felt extremely cold, accompanied by bursts of tingling.

Despite this, he gritted his teeth and continued running forward.

When he was about to get close to Mu Jin, Mu Jin's figure became more and more blurred, as if he would disappear at any time.

He became more anxious, and suddenly, a drop of water fell on his face.

He slowly raised his hand, stroked his cheek, and felt the remaining warmth of the drop of water.

He put his finger into his mouth and licked it, but it tasted bitter. Was it rain water? Why did it taste bitter?

He raised his head in confusion and wanted to ask Mu Jin, but saw Mu Jin's figure gradually disappearing.

Su Yi was extremely anxious. He ran forward and shouted anxiously, "Ajin!"

Mu Jin was awakened by Su Yi's call.

"Ajin! Ajin!"

Mu Jin anxiously held Su Yi's waving hand, "I'm here, Su Yi, are you okay?"

Last night, not long after Mu Jin fed the pill to Su Yi, Su Yi's body suddenly began to tremble. She took off her coat and covered Su Yi with it. In order to keep him warmer, she held him in her arms and slept all night.

Su Yi did not answer Mu Jin's words. Instead, he frowned and broke out in cold sweat.

Seeing that his lips were so dry that they were about to crack, Mu Jin ran outside again, scooped up some rain water in his palms, and returned to the stone cave to feed Su Yi.

Su Yi seemed very thirsty and kept sliding his throat to swallow. After feeding him water, Mu Jin continued to check Su Yi's injuries.

"Su Yi, wake up!" Mu Jin hoped that Su Yi could wake up soon. After all, the weather was so cold and she was afraid that Su Yi would never wake up.

Seeing that Su Yi still didn't respond to her, she felt a little disappointed. And only one night had passed, and Mu Yan didn't come to pick her up in time, which made her even more uneasy.

Mu Jin stepped forward and wiped Su Yi's face. It was too dark last night and she could not see the injuries on Su Yi's body. Although the sky outside was gray at this moment, there was still some light, allowing him to clearly see the subtle scars on Su Yi's face.

Seeing these scars, she quickly lifted Su Yi's clothes and checked the injuries on his body. Su Yi's body was black and blue all over, and there were bloodstains on his clothes. It seemed that he was hit by a rock yesterday and bled a lot. No wonder Su Yi was so cold.

"Ajin, are you planning to take advantage of me while I'm unconscious?"

Just as Mu Jin was about to continue taking off Su Yi's pants to check his injuries, a hoarse and weak voice rang out.

Mu Jin's whole body froze. She slowly turned her head to look at Su Yi, only to see that Su Yi had a pale face, but his eyes were looking at her with a smile.

It turned out that it was not her hallucination, but Su Yi who woke up. "You finally woke up?" Mu Jin's eyes turned red again, and she choked with tears and said, "If you don't wake up, I'm leaving!"

Su Yi laughed twice and then looked straight at Mu Jin.

Mu Jin asked: "Can you still sit up?"

Su Yi looked apologetic and shook his head, saying, "Not possible for now."

The tears that Mu Jin had tried so hard to hold back finally fell. She leaned over and hugged Su Yi.

Her voice was a little hoarse from crying, and she said, "Last night I thought I would never find you again."

Su Yi raised his hand, touched Mu Jin's head, pressed her head into his arms, and said, "Why are you so silly? Didn't I tell you that you must take good care of yourself in the future and don't be soft-hearted to others!"

Hearing Su Yi say this, Mu Jin cried even harder. She thought about how Su Yi asked her to take care of herself, but he used up all his internal strength to send him away in order to save her, which meant that he was ready to give up himself and fulfill her wish.

Mu Jin cried, "Su Yi, do you know? When I woke up and found you gone, do you know how scared I was? I'm not afraid of death, nor am I afraid of losing the battle. I'm just afraid of using your life to exchange for my own. You left without a second thought, and I didn't even have the chance to refuse..."

"But you can't fool me first."

Mu Jin kept shaking his head: "No, I didn't lie to you, I just..."

"What are you doing?" Su Yi asked, "You said that each of us is running while holding a vine of sedge."

Su Yi paused for a moment, and as if he was still a little scared, he continued, "At that time, you felt that you were a burden to me, and wanted me to escape, so you could die in this landslide, right?"

Su Yi continued, "We agreed to be together after the war. I thought we had a promise to each other that we would live together and die together, but in the end you wanted to abandon me first."

"But, you need to live more than I do. You have your people, and they also need you to save them from danger." Mu Jin seemed to hug Su Yi tighter and said, "So I want you to live."

"Silly woman," Su Yi said softly, "What do other people have to do with me? I took these rights and the throne just to better protect you."

"Without you! I would rather be buried in this lonely and cold soil with you than live alone."
