It was already late at night when the emperor returned to the palace, lying on the dragon bed, tossing and turning and just couldn't sleep, and the figure of Mo'er would appear in his mind, the smile when he was playing hide and seek, the serious appearance of burning sweet potatoes, the pleasant voice of shouting, his brows were furrowed tightly, and his heart was becoming more and more uneasy, and he had to find a way to extinguish this kind of sprout.

Mo'er got up at midnight and found that Grandma Zhang was cooking breakfast, she now lives with Grandma Zhang and Yaya, at the beginning, escaped from Chunli Garden, ran away indiscriminately, and came to the broken temple in the narrow alley, when she was hungry and panicked, Grandma Zhang and Yaya appeared, took her home without disgust, and gave her all the food, so that she was grateful.

Later, I learned that Grandma Zhang's son and daughter-in-law died in an accident, leaving only the elderly and children, who usually live by begging and the help of neighbors.

Don't know where to go anyway? Mo'er decided to stay, and every day he wandered around the mountains, picking some wild vegetables and fruits, and digging sweet potatoes to sell on the street in exchange for money.

After saying hello to Grandma Zhang, Mo'er began to run in the morning, met Licheng who was in a hurry to go to work on the road, chatted casually, looked at Licheng's back, she was wondering if she should find a job.

After the morning run, she went back to the house for breakfast, and then carried the bamboo basket to the mountain, just to step on the peasant who was carrying the loquat tree, she remembered that the house where she was caught, there were two poquat trees in the yard, and the fruit on them was Leilei, if you picked it and sold it, you could also earn some money, and the luggage was still there, it was best to get it back.

Looking at the mountain in front of me, I decided to go to the mountain now to see if there are any sweet potatoes or other foods that can be eaten, and then go to the houses in the suburbs in the evening.

After looking for a long time in the mountains to find half a basket of sweet potatoes, it seems that these days, Mo'er dug up the nearby sweet potatoes almost enough, but still picked a lot of wild vegetables and wild fruits, after eating the sweet potatoes brought during the lunch break, he carried the bamboo basket to the street, on the way did not forget to cover his face, sometimes met beggar acquaintances on the street, bought some flour and rice, and the money was almost used up.

Back in the narrow alley, he handed the flour and rice to Grandma Zhang, wrapped three steamed buns in cloth, and said, "Grandma Zhang, I want to go out and lie down, and I won't come back until tomorrow at the earliest." ”

"Where are you going?"

"Let's go out into the countryside."

"Alas~ I'm sorry for you, kid, I haven't rested much when I came here, my old bones are really useless, and I can't help at all."

"Grandma Zhang, don't say that, if you hadn't taken me in, I would still be wandering outside, and I was injured at the time, I don't know what would have become? Anyway, I'm on my way. ”

"Okay, be careful on the road, don't be too pushy."

Mo'er answered, and walked in the direction of the suburbs. A dark shadow behind him disappeared in an instant.

Before, when Mo'er entered the city, she was brought in by someone in a coma, but before she was caught, she asked for directions, and the private house was on the outskirts of the East Gate of Night City, and it only took four hours to reach it.

As soon as I arrived near the house, the sun had gone down, the moon was hanging high, and Mo'er was so tired that she was paralyzed on the grass, so as not to be discovered.

During this time, every day in the mountains digging sweet potatoes, picking wild, vegetables and wild fruits, but also on the street to sell, wake up at dawn, rest late at night, rest less than five hours a day, at this time, lying on the grass to rest, actually sleep to death.

A figure walked slowly from the darkness, the sword in her hand glowed cold, and the ruby at the end of the hilt also glowed with a confused red light, looking down at the person on the grass, the moonlight just hit her face, her facial features were clearly visible, she was sweating profusely, and her breathing was stable.

"It's really negligent that you didn't even notice anyone approaching." The figure murmured softly, holding the sword against Mo'er's heart, and with a slight forward, he could finish her off.

The hand was unable to move forward for a long time, the palm of the hand was sweating, and he kept persuading himself to start, and kept convincing himself, obviously he had a lot of determination, but he couldn't do it when he saw me.

Suddenly, Mo'er turned to the right side, the sword didn't have time to retract, the tip of the sword cut a wound on the right chest, Mo'er woke up in pain, and at the same time as waking up, the figure disappeared in an instant, but the rest of the eyes saw a red light.

Mo'er couldn't see who it was, she looked at her right chest in shock, the blood was fainting in her clothes, and she quickly tore off the strip of cloth from her body, her left shoulder was inflexible, and it took a lot of time to bandage it.

"Who wants me to die, I don't know a few people here, let alone offend anyone, and this barren mountain is not a person in a private house?" Mo'er stuck her head out of the grass and found that the house was dark, and sneaked into the yard to find that the house was quiet, and there was no smell of living people at all.

Mo'er picked up a stone and threw it at the window, and after waiting for a while, she didn't hear any sound, and then she entered the house, and found that there was no one in the room, and she didn't find her luggage.

"Strange, where have all the people gone? There was no one, who was the person who wanted to kill me just now? Mo'er felt a little frightened and angry, and the one she feared and hated the most was the person who released the cold arrow.

Carefully observing the surroundings, she did not find anything unusual, and she could not relax her vigilance, for safety, she decided to stay here, checked the windows and doors, took out the steamed buns and ate one, sat on the bed and did not dare to sleep, so she sat down.

Early the next morning, Mo'er yawned and walked into the yard, she didn't sleep all night, plus she didn't have enough rest during this time, her eyelids fought, but she was overjoyed to see the plucked trees in the yard, Mo'er picked one and tasted it, the flesh was soft and juicy, and it was very sweet.

Mo'er found that there was a wooden cart in the corner of the yard, found a few large bamboo baskets and ropes in the utility room in the yard, and then found scissors from the house, climbed to the tree in three or two times, cut the batch of loats, and cut it for a whole morning, before filling a few bamboo baskets, sitting under the tree with a stool to rest, and eating yesterday's steamed buns when he was hungry.

When he had rested enough, he washed the water bladder he found in the house by the well in the yard, filled it with water, tied the bamboo basket on the wooden cart, and tied a rope between the two poles he had pulled by hand.

Lala stopped along the way, and when he returned to the narrow alley, it was already midnight, and he just wanted to enter the house when he heard Licheng's scream.

Looking back, she found Licheng walking towards her with a lantern, and Mo'er asked curiously, "Do you work the night shift?" ”

"Yes, I just came back from patrol, Sister Mo'er, where were you yesterday, and you came back so late today."

"Go pick the picks, you see, there are several big baskets full, you can taste them, they taste very good, and they will definitely be sold for a good price tomorrow."

"I haven't been going out much lately, and someone was killed last night."

"Haven't caught the prisoner yet?"
