"Hey, what's up ahead? It's so lively, let's go check it out. Gran pointed to the group of people in front of him, who shouted and applauded from time to time.

Several people gathered around, it turned out to be street juggling, no wonder the audience's cries were high and low.

Just after a performance, the audience applauded and shouted, "Good! ”

Gran yelled, "One more!" ”

......

Juggler: "Then you'll have to watch carefully!" ”

I saw that the man in the middle spat fire at the crowd on Gran's side, and the fire turned into a fire dragon and rushed directly, so frightened that people hurriedly retreated, and Gran was squeezed out like this, but Malsham and Li Wan'er watched it with relish.

"What, my shoes are dirty." Gran was suddenly not interested, waved his hand to Li Wan'er and the others, and after seeing that they understood, he casually found a place to sit down and rest.

A gust of wind whistled by, the dust was flying, she covered her face with her sleeves, and when the wind passed, she dusted off her clothes, and inadvertently saw a picture scroll rolling over, she blocked its way with her feet, looked around, no one looked for it, so she bent down and picked it up, took it in her hand and did not deliberately pull the rope, but the string that bound the scroll was broken in front of her eyes, because of gravity, one end of the scroll rolled down her legs, after unfolding, she was shocked by the scenery in the painting, she put it on the ground and admired it.

"What a beautiful mountain idyll! Hey? Will the people inside still move? Glenn touched the person on the drawing, and a flash of light flashed and she vanished.

A gust of wind struck again, and the picture was rolled.

......

"Where is this?"

When Gran opened her eyes, a teenager was staring at her.

"This is my house, and on the way home, I found you fainting on the ground, so I brought you back."

She looked closely at the boy in front of her, who was very similar to the boy in the painting, and she remembered everything that had happened before, and understood that she had been sucked into the painting.

The young man saw that her dress was out of place in this world, got up and brought her a plate of pastries, and said, "I was also sucked in, but I have been living here for more than half a year, and I have tried everything, but it didn't work, so I just gave up ......."

The young man's eyes were a little flustered.

Gran took a piece of pastry and said, "My name is Gran, and my friend will definitely get us out." ”

The young man smiled, stretched out his hand to Gran, and said, "My name is Zuo Menxiu, I'll take you out for a walk." ”

Gran readily agreed.

......

In the real world, the vaudeville show is over and the people are gone.

Li Wan'er looked around, saw no trace of Gran, and said, "It's time to go back to the palace, where did Gran go?" ”

Malsham turned on the system positioning and said, "It's not far away, let's go." ”

According to the positioning, they found the location where Gran disappeared just now, Malsham: "Anyway, the positioning can't be wrong, Gran won't hide from us, right?" ”

Malsham clasped his hands in front of his mouth and shouted, "Gran, we should go back, stop playing." ”

"Captain, I think Glenn is trapped in this painting."

Li Wan'er found this painting when the captain was looking for Gran, and when she opened it, she saw that Gran was running in the field with a teenager, and the painting was constantly changing with their every move.

"It's not good, let's go back and find a way for everyone." Marsham rolled up the painting and pulled Li Wan'er towards the palace.

Back at the palace, everyone sat in the gazebo, and the painting was spread out on the ground by Malsham, and when Giric tried to touch it, he was stopped by Wakatake.

"Slowly, never touch, I once visited a certain city, I heard someone say, there is a painter in the world, like to collect all kinds of stories, and people often unconsciously bring in their own feelings to embellish the story when telling stories, but this will make the story lose its original truth, in order to wait for the purest story, he injected his magic into the painting, once someone is interested in the world in the painting, after touching it will be inhaled, as for how to rescue the person in the painting, the person did not say, it seems that now only find the painter first."

Marsham: Without further ado, let's go find him. ”

Ruozhu grabbed her and said, "Presumably he won't be easy to find, there are so many people near the palace that we are looking for a needle in a haystack." And we have to guard the palace tomorrow, and I think we need to re-plan it. ”

Li Wan'er stood up: "Gran is my friend, I won't abandon her." ”

"Me too." Malsham said as he looked at Gran in the painting.

Ruozhu looked at them with such firmness and said, "I think it is enough for the four of us in the palace, but once you rescue Gran, you will hurry back." ”

A bell rang in the distance, indicating that the palace gates were about to close.

The boys looked at each other and nodded, and Gilrick said, "We'll help you get the guards away, and you can sneak out." ”

"Okay."

......

Successfully exiting the palace, the two came to the place where Gran had disappeared just now, looking for clues.

Because it is a night market, people here come and go very frequently, and no clues can be found for a long time.

"How do we find it?" Li Wan'er was a little overwhelmed, and more helpless.

Marsham thought for a moment and said, "Didn't Ruozhu say that the painter likes to collect stories?" ...... like this"

They found a few idlers and gave them a few gold coins, so that they could deliberately spread their 'miserable' stories.

It worked wonders, and it quickly lured the snake out of its hole.

An old man with a hobbling walk came to them with a cane.

"Two girls, I heard that something bad happened to you?"

Marsham and Li Wan'er pretended to cry and cried.

"Don't cry, two girls, I'm a painter, I like to collect everyone's stories and draw them, if you are willing to share them with me, I can send each of you a 'request painting', what do you think?"

"Okay." Malsham agreed.

The old man smiled darkly: "Then you go to my house to sit down, it's so late, it's noisy outside, and I don't have a paintbrush with me." ”

Before leaving, the old man looked around, and Malsham knew that he was looking for Gran's painting.

The two followed him to a dilapidated place, which was full of picture scrolls, and Li Wan'er opened one of the paintings when he went to the back room, and sure enough, as in the case of Gran, the scenery and people inside were constantly changing.

"Two girls, drink tea to warm up."

Malsham couldn't hold it anymore, drew his twin swords and put them on his neck, shouting, "Let these people go, and my friend Gran!" ”

She asked Li Wan'er to open the painting.

The old man trembled and said, "The woman spares her life, and there is nothing I can do." ”

"You're lying." Malsham pressed the blade against his neck, and a stream of blood ran down his neck.

"Really, I don't lie to you."

Li Wan'er grabbed Malsham's hand and said, "He didn't lie. ”

The old man told the truth: "My magic is very limited, there are ways, but I have to rely on the person in the painting to keep his mind, and when I want to stop all this, I can crack it, mainly because I am in a hurry to come out today and get the wrong picture, otherwise she can come out at any time." ”

"Then let's go in, Wan'er." Marsham is ready.

The old man stopped her and said, "You will be trapped if you go in to no avail, your friend is not the protagonist of the painting, and your friend can only come out when the boy wants to put an end to this." ”

The old man took one out of the pile and opened it, revealing a golden brown inside.

"Take this man as an example, he took the initiative to find me, saying that he would rather enjoy a lifetime of 'false' glory and wealth in the painting than return to the real world to be a poor pariah. It's not that I don't want to let him out, but he himself doesn't want to, there is no shortage of women who yearn for love in this pile of paintings, lonely people who want to get friendship, and filial sons who want to return to love...... Most of them volunteered to be the people in my paintings because they couldn't get the reality, and my reward was their story. ”

Marsham put down his twin swords, his mood mixed.

"Girls, can you tell me your story? I recognize this girl, the top 30 beauties on the list, you are from the Zhiyong Troupe. ”

Li Wan'er nodded and told her story and everyone's story.

......

Painting.

"Gran, let's go back."

She hadn't seen anyone at all along the way, except for the beautiful scenery.

"Zuo Menxiu, don't you feel lonely alone?"

Zuo Menxiu stopped and looked at the mountain in front of him, a little melancholy, and said, "Yes, but for me this is a rare quiet, maybe one day I will get bored, but it is better than enduring the bad words of those people outside......"

Gran saw the tears in the corners of his eyes, and felt a little distressed.

"Don't say it, it's all over."

It is said that Zuo Menxiu is also a poor person, because his parents are thieves, and later he was arrested on the street, and in order to protect him, he hid him in the garbage can, and he also watched his parents being beaten to death. In order to escape the strange eyes of everyone in the village and escape the pain, he left his hometown and met the painter by chance......

......

Because Zuo Menxiu didn't have the 'interference' of others, he lived alone and learned a skill, and of course he also practiced good cooking skills.

On the way back, she caught a hare in the grass, a fish in the river, a cabbage in the field, a butterfly to catch and give to Gran, and a wild flower by the roadside to break it off for her......

The backyard of the home.

"Gran, you can help me clean this dish."

Zuo Menxiu began to deal with the scales, and when he was done, he slit the hare's throat with his back and bled it......

I don't know how long it took, Zuo Menxiu brought the fragrant dishes to the table.

"How about a taste?"

Gran took a piece of fish and nodded, ate another piece of rabbit meat, nodded and gave him a thumbs up, and said, "You are the second man I have ever met who can make such a delicious dish." When my friend gets us out, you can follow us, if you've always been alone. ”

Zuo Menxiu smiled and didn't speak.

Everything is good in the painting, but there is a situation that makes Zuo Menxiu very annoyed, there is only day and night here, and it is impossible to judge the time, there are no four seasons all year round, and damaged things will be restored instantly.

After Zuo Menxiu put away the dishes and chopsticks, Gran lay on her side on the floor and looked out, although the scenery outside was pleasant, but in her eyes it became more and more strange and unreal.

The mountains are lush and green, but there is not even a single leaf on the ground, there is not a single dead grass in the grass and flowers, not a single flower, and even the flower on his head is always bright, like a fake flower.

"I miss my friends so much, and I don't know what they're doing now, or what's going on in the palace, hey......"

......

Off-screen.

Li Wan'er: "That's probably it." ”

The tea on the table had already been cold, and the old man was full of emotion after listening to their stories, and a thousand words turned into a simple sentence.

"It's a friendship."

The old man took the tea, paused with both hands, and said, "Actually, I know a way to save your sisters, but there is little hope. ”

"Speak quickly!" Marsham said excitedly.

Old man: "This is also what I heard my master say, there is a little girl in Licheng who is regarded as a saint, and has a powerful magic power that can crack all kinds of illusions, and many people covet this power, but I heard that this saint's hometown has been destroyed by a female general named Brevi in the former royal palace, and the people have been wiped out in order to protect her, and she is missing. ”

Li Wan'er: "May I ask what is the name of this holy woman in your mouth?" ”

The old man's eyes looked upward, thought for a while, and said, "It seems to be called Ling Nai, a long time ago, I can't remember it clearly." ”

"You mean Nakayama Shilingnai?" Malsham opens the list of people who will participate in the palace mission this time.

"Yes, yes, that's the man, what? Have you seen her? ”

Marsham: "Thanks, I think it's time for us to go." ”

Marsham pulled Li Wan'er to say goodbye.

On the road.

"Fortunately, Ruozhu stole this list beforehand." Marsham passed the list to Li Wan'er.

Li Wan'er was a little surprised: "Her room is next door to us. ”

"God help me, let's go back quickly."

When I returned to the bedroom, it was already two o'clock in the evening, but the female supervisor walked back and forth in the hallway as if she had taken a stimulant.

"We're sure we'll be caught if we go out like this, so let's go through the window."

Li Wan'er looked at the female supervisor through the crack in the door, and there was no chance to go out at all.

Marsham had already come to the window, and Li Wan'er gently closed the door and followed.

Seeing that Shiling Nakayama had fallen asleep, Malsham picked the window lock, gently pushed it open, and the two climbed in, and they came to the side of the bed and uncovered her quilt, but it was two pillows.

"What do you want to do? I can't feel your murderous aura, but that doesn't mean you're good people. ”

Nakayama Shiling had already felt the breath of these two people and laid a trap.

She held the shard of glass against their backs.

Li Wan'er wanted to turn around and explain, but Zhongshan Shiling leaned inward against the fragments and said, "Don't move!" ”

Malsham was very calm, and threw the weapon aside to show sincerity: "We're not here to hurt you, we just want you to do a favor." ”

"What's the busy?"

Malsham opened the painting.

"Help me crack the illusion in this painting."

Nakayama Shiling Nai put away the fragments, saw their faces clearly by the moonlight, and said, "I'm sorry, I don't have this ability. ”

"The Holy Maiden of Licheng, because of the powerful magic that caused the extermination of the clan, I didn't know where to go a few years ago, presumably the purpose of your coming here is not simple, you want to take revenge?"

Nakayama Shilingno was silent, and her clenched fists gave Malsham an answer.

"Brevi is dead, the whereabouts of the former palace master is a mystery, now it's different, who do you seek revenge? Presumably, the saint who is respected by everyone will not kill innocents indiscriminately. ”

Malsham handed her the painting.

Nakayama Shilingno shook his head and said, "If I used to be able to easily solve it with my fingers, but now I have no choice, unless I ......"

Marsham: "Unless what? ”

"Unless I find the gem produced in Licheng, and the gem of Licheng has long been destroyed by Brevi, it is said that she left one for a minister at that time, and I have found the whereabouts of the only remaining gem, which is the blue gem worn on the chest of the minister of Wutu Sanhui, the purpose of my coming here is not to take revenge, but to get back what belongs to me."

Li Wan'er nodded at Marsham, she didn't see any trace of Zhongshan Shiling's lying.

"Because the gem is priceless, I guess he will definitely take it to the exchange meeting, but I have already tried it in the morning, because there are many guards, and I am afraid of being recognized and startled, so I have no chance to do it at all."

Malsham put away the scroll and said, "In this case, we will help you get the gem back, and you can help us remove the illusion and rescue Gran." ”

"Deal."

......

The two sneaked into Wakatake's room with her.

"What are you doing?" Taslo had a bad habit of sleeping naked, and the sudden visit scared him enough.

"Shh Malsham hurriedly covered his mouth, and then said, "The housekeeper is outside, be quiet." ”

Li Wan'er shook Xiao Lei awake.

Marsham told everyone about Nakayama Shilingna, and everyone agreed to help her.

Shiling Nakayama: "Thank you. ”

Ruozhu said: "This is the main process of tomorrow's exchange meeting, and I have already sent it to you. I studied the movements of the ministers, and tomorrow they have an hour to enjoy tea in the back garden, and we will use that hour to get the gems. ”

Taslo: "Am I going to be a maid again?" ”

Ruozhu smiled, held back, and said, "That's not necessary, but you have other uses, and this task belongs to you." ”

Taslo was a little flattered: "Why? Is it because I'm amazing? ”

"Sorry, no, that's because you're good at 'running away.'"

“？？？？？？” Taslo's face was a question mark.

Ruozhu then stated his plan.

"Tomorrow Nakayama Shilingnai, Li Wan'er, and Malsham will dress up as their maids, and I, Jirek, and Xiao Lei will secretly help them, and Taslo will be responsible for running away to distract them...... Of course, the specific situation is analyzed on a case-by-case basis, and he knows how to improvise, but the main 'torso' cannot be interrupted, and the gem must be given to Xiao Lei, because no one will pay attention to a child. ”

Everyone nodded......

Soon, the sun arrived the next day.

Everyone went out early, and Li Wan'er and the others mixed into the team responsible for serving the ministers today.

Zhongshan Shiling was a little nervous, and Li Wan'er and Marsham clasped her hands to cheer her on, and then they breathed a sigh of relief.

Giric and the others hid in the garden, and sent the ministers in.

Soon after, Xiao Lei ran in and made a gesture to them, indicating that the ministers had arrived at the 'battlefield'......
