"Okay, thank you, Boss Hou, thank you, Brother Bai." An Ruomu hurriedly stood up and bowed repeatedly.

Lao Bai patted him on the shoulder: "Those who walk the rivers and lakes should indeed be careful in everything, the future is terrible, the future is terrible." ”

An Ruomu laughed with him, and there was a series of thanks.

Saying goodbye to the two of them, they walked out of the tavern, and the door on the wall disappeared silently.

As Xia Yuanshan walked, he turned back frequently uneasily.

An Ruomu's steps were light, and the road was windy: "The boat is here, it's time to earn some money for the ferry ticket." ”

"What?" Xia Yuanshan didn't understand.

An Ruomu smiled and looked down at himself.

He was wearing old clothes that he had asked for in the town, with a lot of oil stains and patches, and severe wear and tear on the cuffs and hems, and he looked like a poor man.

"That's good." He was very happy with his image.

"What are you going to do?" Mu Qing couldn't figure it out.

An Ruomu didn't answer, asked the way clearly, hummed a little song to the dock, found the foreman, and asked if there was any work.

The foreman didn't lift his eyelids, led him to a large pile of goods, and said the price.

An Ruomu readily agreed, took the bamboo skewer handed by the foreman, and threw off his arms to move it.

"What are you doing?" Xia Yuanshan and Mu Qing asked in unison.

"Work and earn money for the ferry ticket." An Ruomu replied as a matter of course, "Do you think that Boss Hou will let us take a boat for nothing?" Or do you have money? ”

Xia Yuanshan didn't say a word, pulled out a hairpin from Mu Qing's head, and sent it directly to An Ruomu's nose.

"Wow, Mo Liuli, it's so good, it's good." An Ruomu admired, but there was no surprise in his eyes, "Put it away, save it from being robbed." ”

After that, he went to work on his own.

Xia Yuanshan couldn't pick his shoulders or hands, he couldn't call An Ruomu back, and he didn't dare to go alone, so he had no choice but to sit down at a nearby tea stall.

Next, from the sun to the sunset, he watched An Ruomu lazily loading goods, chatting with this one from time to time, and that Kankan, gradually, he seemed to understand the purpose of coming here.

Finally, An Ruomu carried the last cargo to the ship, returned the bamboo sticks, carried a few copper coins in his hand, and sat down on the stool beside Xia Yuanshan.

"Good work." Xia Yuanshan pushed a cup of tea over, "Have you earned enough money for the ferry ticket?" ”

An Ruomu put the copper coins on the table one by one: "If I give this to Boss Hou, he is afraid that he will throw us into the sea to feed the fish." ”

"So, do you hear anything?" Xia Yuanshan glanced at the copper coin.

"There is still no news from Rongquan and Excellence." An Ruomu wiped his face with both hands and put the copper coin away.

"They might have gone back first." This is not only comfort, but also Mu Qing's greatest wish at present.

An Ruomu smiled reluctantly, let out a long breath, and stood up: "Let's go, sell the ink glaze, I'm going to have a big meal tonight, take a comfortable bath, and then sleep well." ”

Mo Liuli is a precious gem, but it is not rare, and the hairpin is not a work of art with exquisite workmanship, Xia Yuanshan said that this is his ancestral, and the clerk of the jewelry store took it after looking at the condition.

With a small bag of gold and silver coins scattered, they bought a few changes of clothes and found an inconspicuous place to live. An Ruo woodcut ate and drank by himself, while Xia Yuanshan put Mu Qing on the windowsill, cleaned up by himself, and lay down on the bed without any sound.

Mu Qing leaned on the window frame and saw a full moon in the sky, surrounded by colorful moonlight, as if she was wearing a feather coat, which was very good-looking.

"It's going to rain." She muttered, thinking of the flowers on the balcony of her house, which had not been watered for so long, and was afraid that they would all dry up.

The moonlight poured down like water, shining on her body, it was warm, Mu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and her thoughts turned to the landlord aunt who lived downstairs. She remembered that when she came home from work that day, her aunt said that she would bring food, and then she was very sleepy and went to bed very early, and she didn't know if her aunt had come or not, and whether she had found that she was missing.

She was an orphan since she was a child, and when she grew up, in order to make ends meet, she traveled to various cities, saw a lot of the hot and cold world, and was accustomed to indifference to people.

She wants to live, no matter where she is, no matter what fate does to her.

"Don't think about it, eliminate distractions, you're very noisy." Xia Yuanshan suddenly spoke.

Mu Qing was startled, and then suddenly remembered that all her thoughts were not only known to herself.

"I won't, can you not just come and listen to what I'm thinking?" She felt like she was being watched and felt uncomfortable.

"I can't help it, or you give me back one soul and one soul." Xia Yuanshan got up, faced Mu Qing, and sat cross-legged.

Mu Qing wants to return it, but now that she has returned it, she has to return to her previous state of not being able to speak and move, if that is the case, she will be watched if she is watched.

"Let's rest for a while." Xia Yuanshan looked at Mu Qing's back, "Tomorrow before dawn, the boat will first pass through the inland river to Fengque Bay, stop there at night, and only go to sea after being inspected the next day, so if there is no moonlight tomorrow night, you will be very uncomfortable." ”

"I can't sleep." Mu Qing turned around - she was awake in An Ruomu's hands, she had always been in good spirits, not sleepy, not hungry, and never thought of going to the toilet.

"No need to sleep, like I said, eliminate distractions." Xia Yuanshan got out of bed and came to the window, "Calm down, you can feel the moonlight entering your body and circulating in your body." ”

Mu Qing closed her eyes and tried it, but there was nothing.

"Calm down." Xia Yuanshan's voice was very soft, "Go in from here, go here, and come here again." ”

His fingers lightly touched the top of Mu Qing's head, chest, and limbs.

Mu Qing took a few deep breaths and tried again, but still found nothing.

Xia Yuanshan laughed: "That's it, let's understand it slowly." ”

Mu Qing couldn't help but be a little frustrated: "How long will it take to comprehend?" ”

Xia Yuanshan didn't answer, and changed the topic: "Do you want to have a physical body in the future?" ”

Mu Qing nodded vigorously - she didn't like this puppet, although it was delicate and beautiful, it was always weird.

"You can think about it. Now you are a puppet, you don't need food, you don't need to sleep, and when you have a physical body one day, all your needs are no different from ordinary people, and there will be a lot of trouble. Xia Yuanshan looked out the window and looked into the distance.

Mu Qing still nodded: "I still have to find a way to go back, just to be like an ordinary person, besides, I have been living in such trouble since I was born and came here." ”

"Okay." Xia Yuanshan patted her head, "Comprehend it again, and eliminate distracting thoughts." ”

After finishing speaking, he went back to bed.

Mu Qing did what he said, and unconsciously, she was also dazed, but she said that she was sleeping, but it was not like it, because of the surrounding wind, the sound of insects, the sound of people walking in the store, everything she could hear clearly.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a gentle knock on the door of the room twice.

Xia Yuanshan got up, took Mu Qing, and opened the door.

Outside the door was An Ruomu, who was silent, just tilted his head and took the lead out of the hotel.

When they arrived at the dock, Boss Hou was directing the workers to load the goods.

Xia Yuanshan pulled out Mu Qing's hairpin again and handed it to An Ruomu.

An Ruomu took it and sent it to Boss Hou.

Boss Hou glanced at it lightly, put it in his trouser pocket, and ignored An Ruomu and Xia Yuanshan.

An Ruomu stood there, not saying anything more, nor doing anything more.

Xia Yuanshan waited for a while, unable to hold his breath: "What do you mean?" ”

An Ruomu hurriedly made a silent gesture.

Boss Hou didn't know if he heard it, or if he thought it was almost, but when he turned around, he seemed to find the two of them: "What are you still standing for?" There are so many things to move, to work! ”

An Ruomu nodded and bowed, "yes, yes", hurriedly pulled Xia Yuanshan, moved something casually, and came to the boat.

A nondescript corner of the hold was reserved for them, covered with hay, beside which a whole boatload of fresh water and dry rations was piled up, and a small round window.

"Boss Hou's favor is almost helped." An Ruomu lay down comfortably on the hay, "Next, if we are found, he will say that he has no knowledge and that we are smuggling." When we got to the vicinity of Bochu Island, he would let the boat be lowered, but he would never let us know.
