India

On the morning of mid-spring, at Maoshi, the sky was still slightly bright, and the morning sun came in through the cracks in the door and the window paper, and the air still carried the unique moist breath of spring.The servants in Mo's mansion have already woken up one after another. In order not to affect the rest of the masters, their movements will be light and try to keep the mansion as quiet as possible.

In Young Master Mo's room, for the first time at this time, there was a rustling sound.

"Clothes..."

Mo Nan picked out a few light and easy-to-carry clothes from the cabinet and put them on the furoshiki.

"money for the journey……"

He searched all the places in the house where he might put money, and finally found several banknotes and a lot of broken silver. He thought it was enough, so he put it in the money bag and threw it on the cloth.

Immediately he fell into deep thought.

Mo Nan didn't like to travel far since he was a child. Apart from doing some business for his parents, he hardly even went out to Yangyuan Town a few times when he grew up, and every time he went out, his servants took care of him. I have packed my luggage, so I don't know what else is necessary besides money and clothes.

After thinking about it, he couldn't think of the third one. It wasn't until his stomach let out a well-timed growl that he woke up.

He slipped out the door like a thief and tiptoed towards the kitchen.As soon as I entered the door, I saw the cook preparing breakfast.

When the cook saw someone entering the room, he thought it was some servant girl who came to help, and was about to order him around, but when he looked closely at the person, he was so frightened that he didn't hold the spatula firmly in his hand.

"Hush—" Mo Nan hurriedly made a silent gesture, signaling him to be quiet.

The cook understood, and slowly mouthed very cooperatively: "Young master, yes, what, order, order?"

"Give me some dry food." His stomach growled as he said it.

When the cook heard it, he almost doubted his ears, what?Dry food?Why do you need to take dry food? Is it possible that Master Mo is tired of eating delicacies from mountains and seas and wants to change his taste and experience the life of a poor family by the way? ?

Seeing that he didn't respond, Mo Nan urged: "Hurry up."

"That...young master... breakfast has been prepared, you can..."

"Don't you understand!" He grabbed the cook's ear and shouted in a low voice, "I want the kind of dry food that can be put in a bag, carried around, and conveniently carried. Don't tell me I don't have it!"

"Yes, yes, yes... it hurts... the little one is wrong, I'll bring you the little one... just lighten up, ouch, hello..."

Only then did Mo Nan let go, the cook rubbed his sore ears, walked to the storage box, dug out some bread and steamed buns and handed them to Mo Nan.Frightened, he said cautiously: "Do you see these?"

"Well, it's fine, that's it, you can continue to work on your work," Mo Nan did not forget to remind, "By the way, don't tell others that I have been here, or you will lose your ears."

"...Yes!" The cook began to wonder if his ears had offended Young Master Mo.

Holding the dry food in his arms, Mo Nan walked out of the kitchen and tiptoed back to his room, picked out a piece of steamed bun by the way, took a bite, and spit it out after chewing a few times.

"... Good job."

When he returned to the house, he wrapped up the dry food in disgust, put it on the cloth, packed the bag and carried it on his back, and opened the door cautiously.Unfortunately, Mo Dong's room opposite him happened to be opened, and the two met face to face just like that.

"..."

"..."

Mo Dong was actually woken up by urination. He got up and planned to take a urinate, but when he opened the door, he saw his elder brother coming out with a burden on his back. He was shocked by the look of death.This dress... this expression... this posture... four words suddenly appeared in Mo Dong's mind: run away from home.

"Brother!!" He rushed forward and hugged Mo Nan's thigh.

Mo Nan was caught off guard by his legs and almost lost his footing: "What are you doing! Keep your voice down!! Others will hear you!"

Hearing Mo Nan yelling these words, Mo Dong became more convinced of the fact that he was going to run away from home, knelt on the ground and refused to let go.

"Brother, calm down and don't think about it!! I'm wrong! It's all my fault! I shouldn't have left you that night after abandoning you! Just forgive me once, brother, woo woo woo, brother——" At the end, he started to choke up.

"..." Mo Nan didn't know how to explain it for a while.

Moxi, who lived on the other side, heard the movement and also came out of the room.Seeing Mo Nan and Mo Dong's actions, a surprised expression appeared on their faces.

"...Big brother and second brother, why are you in debt?"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, brother, brother, he is going to run away from home, hurry up and persuade me together, here, hug his leg on this side, hold him tighter." Mo Dong hurriedly gestured.

"Okay," Moxi hugged Mo Nan's other leg without saying a word, and immediately put on a crying face, "Brother, you can't let us-"

"Stop!!!" Mo Nan really wanted to get rid of these two sticky bugs, "I don't want to run away from home!! Let me go!"

"Oh." The two held back their hands.

"I'm not angry with you that day," he explained helplessly to his two younger brothers, "but as for me, elder brother, I have something very important to do, and I don't know when I will come back. It should take a long time, so you just stay Helping parents at home, do you hear me?"

"Hmm... I heard that."

"Good boy," he smiled and patted their heads, "Brother came back to bring you something to eat."

"Brother, I'm already seventeen, don't treat me like a child." Mo Dong sneered.

"In my heart, you are just a little kid. I even changed your diaper back then."

"cut……"

Mo Nan glanced at the time, half of Mao's time had passed.

"I have to go," he straightened his clothes and bags, and took back the hand touching his head. "Stay well at home and wait for me to come back. Don't be mischievous all the time, especially you, Moxi."

"Understood." Moxi pouted, "See you, brother."

"Goodbye, brother, be careful all the way."

When Mo Nan walked out of the courtyard, he looked back at his two silly younger brothers, feeling a little more melancholy in his heart.Although they are sometimes stupid, they have always listened to their own words since they were young, and their brotherhood is deep and deep.If I say goodbye today, I don't know the return date, and I don't know what will happen to them without me.

We need to find that broken snake as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Mo Nan quickened his pace.

Following the memory of the last time he escaped from the Ji Mansion, he took several bumps and turns and finally arrived at the gate of the Ji Mansion.

He looked at the two golden characters on the plaque, hesitating whether to knock on the door.

A man can bend and stretch... A man can bend and stretch... Isn't it just walking with that bastard? It makes sense, um...

Mo Nan first hypnotized himself, then made up his mind, went up and knocked on the door.

It was an old housekeeper who came to open the door. He was taken aback when he saw Mo Nan, and then racked his brains to search for the identity of this face in his mind, as if he finally thought of who it was, and smiled broadly.

"Oh~~ The eldest young mistress is back? Please come in... please come in."

"..." She actually forgot this heinous identity for a moment.

While inviting Mo Nan in, the old housekeeper murmured: "Young Mistress, everyone in Ji's mansion is panicking... especially Young Master Ji, who started to pack his luggage after he came back yesterday. Young Mistress, it’s okay...you are back today, everyone is happy, everyone is happy...Eh...why is Young Mistress carrying luggage. "

Mo Nan didn't want to listen to such unpleasant nonsense at first, but he was startled when he heard the word "luggage".

"Where is he now?! Is he still in the mansion?"

"Yes, young mistress, don't worry, this is just..." the old housekeeper said halfway, when he suddenly saw a familiar figure in front of him.

Looking at the two people blocking the way, Ji Guiran couldn't help frowning.

The so-called arrival early is worse than coincidence, Mo Nan looked at the luggage on his back and heaved a sigh of relief. If he came one step later, he would really let him run away.

The old housekeeper seemed to feel the embarrassment of the atmosphere, so he decided to leave. Before he left, he approached Mo Nan and told him: "Young Mistress, I dare to remind you that there is nothing wrong with a husband and wife quarreling on the bedside and on the bed. .”

"... Get out!" Mo Nan couldn't bear it anymore.

"Hey... I'm getting lost, little one."

After the butler left, the two of them remained frozen in place, neither of them speaking.After a while, Ji Guiran chose to ignore Mo Nan, walked around him and left.

"..." Even though Mo Nan, who was ignored, was full of displeasure, he still bit the bullet and followed.

After Ji Guiran went out, he first took out a stone to look in the direction, and after confirming it, he walked away.Mo Nan behind him paid close attention to his every movement, for fear that he would disappear suddenly.

But fortunately, looking at Ji Guiran's appearance, it seemed that he didn't intend to play any tricks, but was just on his way seriously. Mo Nan gradually relaxed and followed him silently.He was a little lucky that Ji Guiran chose to walk instead of sitting in a carriage, otherwise if he didn't let him get in the carriage, he would definitely be doomed.

Speechless all the way.

Ji Guiran has always regarded the little tail following him as air, rushing when it is time to travel, and resting when it is time to rest.It's just that whatever he does, Mo Nan will follow suit.

In fact, Mo Nan was a bit aggrieved. He forgot to bring water, and he almost couldn't swallow the dry food. When Ji Guiran was drinking, he was too embarrassed to ask for water, so he could only swallow a few more mouthfuls of saliva. It's useless.

Yangyuan Town is not small. When the evening approached, they arrived at the foot of the mountain on the northern edge of the town. After crossing the mountain, there was another town.

This time period is a bit embarrassing. If you choose to continue climbing the mountain, the sky will be dark when you go down the mountain. If you choose to stay, it will seem a waste of time.

Mo Nan, who had been driving for a day, felt a little tired, and at this moment, he hoped that the people in front would choose to stay in the town.

But Ji Guiran seemed unwilling to do what he wanted, and set foot on the mountain road without even thinking about it.Seeing this, Mo Nan couldn't help cursing inwardly, gritted his teeth and followed.

Climbing a mountain consumes more energy than walking. Mo Nan, who was pampered and pampered since he was a child, is definitely not in good shape. What's more, he exhausted a lot during the daytime. Every step up feels like using all the strength in his body.Unexpectedly, Ji Guiran in front of him seemed to have inexhaustible physical strength, climbing the mountain with ease, without taking a breath.

Halfway up the mountain, the distance between the two of them widened a lot.Mo Nan looked at his back with hatred, wondering what did this guy eat to grow up.

When they were about to reach the top of the mountain, it was also the time when the sun was about to set. The sun was setting, and the beautiful sunset glow filled the sky. Looking at the scenery from the top of the mountain, it was like a painting, but they didn't have time to appreciate this beautiful scenery.

The insects in the grass began to hum, Mo Nan only felt that the figure in front was getting further away from him, but he couldn't do it if he wanted to keep up.

If this continues, he won't be able to keep up. Rather than losing face, Mo Nan, who is more afraid of losing Ji Guiran, decided to yell for him to wait for him.

"season……!!!"

Before he could utter the first syllable, a few black figures suddenly appeared from the bushes around him. Without giving him time to react, they covered his mouth and nose with their hands in front of the crowd, and they pushed him into the bushes together. One drag.

"?!" He was terrified and tried to see who was coming. The dense and tall trees blocked the afterglow of the setting sun outside. He could only vaguely see three masked men and three pairs of malicious eyes.

... Robbers?
