Near the mountains and high places, the distant mountains are stacked into a stretch.

The mountains and forests are quiet, the birds perch without singing, the flowing water is clear, and the fish are not frightened. Although there is a fairyland in the sky, it is not as good as having a paradise on earth. The bamboo building under the mountain seems to be born in heaven and earth, and the dense and dense combination of the dense forest, which favors the creation of nature and humiliates the magic work of the ghost axe. Between the two mountains, the water flows to the west and east. The river for no reason, passed away inadvertently, flowing with an eternal rhythm.

Boating on the river, flowing with the waves, rippling with the wind, the water shines in the forest, and the reflection of the cypress walks among the white clouds.

It's like driving on the green peaks, greeting the verdant ones. The sun and moon are clear, but they are just passing by, and they can't enjoy this unique style. The mist is thick, the sarong is heavy, looming, floating in the blue sea and sky.

"The landscape is present in the painting, the landscape sleeps in the painting, I don't know the geometry of spring, and the four seasons are the same as before. ”

The old drunkard took his three juniors to the boat, and he even painted on the boat.

It was getting dark, and it wasn't until the afterglow of the setting sun had dissipated that he stopped painting, but he picked up the flask and poured it again.

"Old drunkard, do you really care about the life or death of my own mother and your own daughter?" When Mo Xun opened his mouth to ask, Princess Ziyou was already crying anxiously. Only Fang Qiong was carefully looking at the landscape paintings made by the old drunkard.

The old drunkard patted Fang Qiong's little head and said to Mo Xun and Princess Ziyou: "I'm also in a hurry, but what I'm anxious about is different from what you're anxious about." You are anxious to see what your own mother looks like, Ziyou is anxious for her mother's safety, and I am anxious about Jiren's own natural appearance. ”

"You mean, my mother will have noble people to help her?" Mo Xun asked.

The old drunkard kicked Mo Xun and scolded with a smile: "Can you not bite the words so hard?"

"I used to call my stepmother my mother, and I didn't know she was my stepmother until my grandmother told me when she was dying two years ago. I'm used to calling others my mother, and I'm not used to calling her my mother again. Mo Xun said word by word, but there were tears in his eyes.

Princess Ziyou cried and begged the old drunkard to help her mother.

The old drunkard was so big by what she said, he pointed to the riverbank casually, and said, "Okay, okay, little girl, don't cry, the noble man is over there, I'll take you to beg him." ”

As he spoke, the old drunkard snatched the oar from Mo Xun's hand and rowed hard towards the shore.

When the four of them came to the shore, they found a strange man squatting alone on the shore.

Mo Xun, Princess Ziyou, and Fang Qiong all observed the man carefully, and the eyes of the three young people were full of disbelief and doubt.

Mo Xun looked back at the old drunkard and wondered: "Is it reliable, this guy is more worn than you, he is the noble person you are talking about?"

"Hehe, I'm just saying it casually. The old drunkard covered his mouth and smiled, and Princess Ziyou cried loudly, and Mo Xun and Fang Qiong both covered their ears.

"Hey, brother, I have some wine here, take a sip?" the old drunkard stepped forward and took the initiative to talk to the man who was squatting on the shore.

The man turned his head, and in the moonlight he showed a pale face, pale as a dead man. It made Mo Xun gasp, he had never seen such a bleak face.

The man stood up, snatched the flask from the old drunkard's hand, drank a few sips, and threw the flask directly into the sea after drinking, so angry that the old drunkard stomped his feet.

"The wine is good, it's refreshing!" said the man, in a loud voice, as if he might not hear what he said.

Mo Xun felt that this person was very interesting, so he leaned forward, stood in front of the man, and said, "You have a bloodless face and a scruffy beard, are you sick?"

"I'm not sick, it's you who are sick, and you're not sick. The man was still shouting at the top of his voice.

"Uncle, what's your name?" Mo Xun asked curiously.

The man pointed to his chest and shouted, "Empty thing!"

"Empty thing, what a strange name. Why do you speak so loudly, none of us are deaf. Mo Xun said loudly as he looked like a strange man.

Kongwu smiled and said: "On the other side of the river is the royal city, at this moment, the demon clan on the other side of the northern county has been overwhelmed by a large army, and it is rare that there are idlers like me here enjoying the river in the night." ”

"Just before night fell, I found a dying woman on the other side, covered in blood, and now I don't know whether she is dead or alive, how miserable her life is. And there are a lot of soldiers' corpses lying next to her, it should be a big man. The empty object pointed to the front and said loudly, listening to his words, Mo Xun and Princess Ziyou quickly returned to the boat, and the brother and sister rowed their best oars towards the opposite shore.

"Brother Huang, will that man called Kongwu lie to us, why did we stay in the river with my grandfather for so long and didn't notice the movement on the other side?" Princess Ziyou said with suspicion.

Mo Xunlang said: "Whatever, just go and see." ”

Moments later, the brother and sister rowed to the opposite bank, and sure enough, they found the bodies of a group of soldiers. The two searched among the corpses, and soon found a woman covered in blood. Although she was mixed with blood, there was only one woman among the corpses, so it was still easy to identify.

Princess Ziyou wiped the blood stains off the woman's face, saw the woman's face clearly, and suddenly burst into tears.

"Mother......" Mo Xun said to the woman.

"Princess, don't cry, let's carry her to the boat and let the old drunkard save her. Mo Xun said softly, but turned around to find that the boat was gone. He exclaimed, looked at the other side, and called out loudly, but received no response. Because the distance between the two sides of the strait is relatively long, and it is night at this time, it is completely difficult to see the scenery on the other side.

"The old liar really doesn't change his nature, this time he actually joined forces with outsiders to deceive us, he deliberately wanted to starve us to death!" Mo Xun scolded, extremely angry, feeling that he had been deceived by the old drunkard again.

Princess Ziyou choked up and said, "Why does Grandpa want to do this to us?"

"Who knows, the old liar has always been so unreliable, no one knows what he thinks in his heart. Mo Xun sighed and said helplessly.

Princess Ziyou was aggrieved, tears flowed down one by one, half-knelt beside her mother, and kept calling: "Mother, wake up, you won't fall down so easily." Mother, did you hear what the child said?"

Mo Xun was also carefully looking at his mother's appearance, and at this moment he knew that his mother was so captivating of the country and the city, no wonder she would become a generation of empresses.

"Princess, you should have money with you, give me some, I'll go to the city to buy some medicine and cotton clothes and quilts, fortunately, it's spring, and it's not very cold. Mo Xun said to Princess Ziyou.

Princess Ziyou took out some silver taels from her arms and said to Mo Xun: "At this time, the demon army has occupied the royal city, and the imperial brother must be extremely careful." ”

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. Mo Xun smiled slightly, took the silver tael and ran quickly in the direction of Pure Sand City.
