The road to the northwest is not easy to walk, and Shen Quansheng's iron body is somewhat unable to resist the continuous rush.

"It's clear that most of this winter has passed, how can I still be so uncompetitive and catch up with the wind chill at this time......" she grumbled to the mute beggar.

The beggar handed over a bowl of hot soup and walked away. Probably, what she said was too boring.

The entrance of the hot soup, as if the whole body had woken up together, suddenly warmed up, and the stiff feet began to feel conscious. It's just a beggar, and after a long time, he hasn't returned.

Shen Quansheng saw that it was getting late, so he could only go out to look for it, only to find that he was squatting by the river not far away, rolling up his trouser legs, and staring at something intently.

"You're ...... Catching fish?" the dumb beggar was usually particularly alert, but this time he was suddenly frightened, or maybe Shen Quansheng was light-footed.

"Be careful, the current must be a bit rushed. She was on the shore, looking at the almost faint sound in the water, and because the night was near, she could only see an outline, but this outline had an indescribable sense of security, and it was impossible to describe.

Are there any fish in the river? She began to break the grass roots when the shore was a little boring, but she still looked at the river unconsciously.

"Did you know that when I was a child, I used to come to the river to catch fish?" the mute beggar still hunched over and waiting for the fish.

"But don't think I'm amazing, one of my playmates helped me catch it, I don't dare to go into the water......" The mute beggar nodded as if he understood, but still engrossed.

She saw that he had no special response, so she could only continue to fold the grassroots.

……

"Hey, fat man, come down quickly!" The little fat man on the shore hesitated, but he didn't want to be looked down upon, so he stretched out his feet and tried the water, which was cold and cold.

"I said why are you so inked, this fish is not waiting for you. Or are you afraid of water, fatty?" said a little girl standing on the boulder between the streams, crossed her waist, and said angrily.

She couldn't hold her breath, and she didn't dare to talk about almost drowning in water when she was a child, so she could only bite the bullet.

Someone grabbed her by the wrist, "Hey, don't die......" He was much smaller than her, and he spoke fiercely and scary.

Shen Quansheng hesitated, "I...... I...... Damn ......," the kid laughed.

"Do you want to eat fish?" the boy asked.

She nodded a little stunned, only to see the boy pull up his trouser legs, and immediately jumped into the water, and within half a column of incense, he caught two big fish. Everyone praised him for his quick eyes and quick hands, and the little girl was also particularly admired, but the boy was a little angry when he saw her on the shore again.

"Why are you breaking grass roots? I spent so much effort to catch the fish!"

"You caught it?" she was incredulous, the two fish were half a man's height.

The kid nodded confidently, and even showed off, "Let's grill the fish, shall we?

"You...... Would you really like to grill fish with me?" she buried her head and looked at her figure.

The boy saw the people behind him giggling, understood what was going on, and took her hand and looked into the woods on the shore.

"Hey, hey!" she cried, "where are you going?"

"I can't see the places where these philistines......" he said in a low voice, very different from Fang Cai's tone, mature, even sad.

When he stopped, he seemed to be even more unhappy than himself, holding her in one hand and the fish in the other.

"You...... What's wrong?" she was afraid of him, and withdrew her hand in fear.

"I ...... Let's eat fish......"

"Why don't you eat with everyone? There are two of them!"

His eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed, "Everyone, you mean those people?...... They are just mediocre people, who will only underestimate people and tend to be inflammatory. Didn't you hear, they called you fat, weren't you angry?"

Her eyes were deep and bottomless, dark brown and a little black, "But ...... I'm just a fat man...... There are some things that you are born with that cannot be changed. ”

"It can be changed!" said the boy seriously, "I ...... Do you know who I am?" Shen Quansheng shook his head.

"I am the prince of that imperial city, the ...... of the Nine Emperor Princes"

She suddenly had some impressions, those people said that the second prince and the ninth prince were the princes of the concubines, and since they beat their mother and concubine, they were even more unfavored in the palace. Even the saint has never reused the two, and in the palace, these two people are not princes, but more like beggars.

"Beggar?" he chuckled, "they say I'm a beggar...... I'm a prince, I'm born different, they're just jealous!"

She could see something dodging in the boy's eyes, and the toughness in his words was nothing more than the hard skin he wore on the outside.

"I also believe that you are different. She reassured, thinking that it wasn't right, and added, "I mean, you just caught the fish, and they can't, isn't that different?"

The kid sighed lightly, "You're really comforting." She buried her head, and often said this to herself.

"Forget it...... the kid stood up and put the fish down, "Let's eat the fish......"

That was the first time Shen Quansheng saw the prince of Yudu, he was a down-and-out prince, but he had some sympathy with her. In the face of all this, she wanted to get closer so much that she forgot to see who she was first.

……

She looked up again, and the mute beggar was already dragging a few big fish, just like the one he had come to the cheers of the crowd that day. For a while, she was stunned, she thought, it must be that after he left, only his shadow was left in this world.

"You...... It's good at catching fish......" She took the fish, and couldn't think of anything to say, so she stopped by the way.

The fish in the mute beggar's mouth paused for a moment, then handed her another, and to be honest, there was really no need for the two of them to catch five fish.

"I ...... I can't eat that much, it's still far from the northwest, you eat more. ”

The dumb beggar was very unceremonious and ate a few more bites, but the fish could not be eaten salty without sauce, so it was boring after a few bites.

"By the way, what did you do before? Looking at your appearance, it seems that you have a martial arts background, should you be a fugitive?"

The mute beggar nearly choked, coughed a few times, and shook his head.

"Well, joke, don't take it seriously. However, when these things are done, you should not come back with me, and find a place to make a living in the northwest, and with your ability, you should be able to find a better livelihood. As for me...... I still have something to do......" The tornado bottomed out, as if she had withdrawn the last of her strength, and her eyes darkened completely. These days, her persistence broke down at the last blow......

The mute beggar looked up nervously, for for the first time she had seen them, a long scar passed through them, like a sword imprinted on them. Perhaps she could never have imagined that under the light of the sun and moon, the terrible man made a low sound, and even the birds of the entire mountain forest fell silent.

After a long time, those eyes asked, "What ......are you going to do?"
