Before dawn, Mo Zhu got up early and was busy in the back kitchen for a while, and left by the back door of the General's Mansion with a lacquer box alone.She walked through the deserted market, turned into a group of residential houses, shuttled through the intricate narrow alleys, and after a long circle, she finally stopped in front of an ordinary house.

The uniform gray-brown high walls enclose similar small houses one after another. Even the narrow vermilion paint-peeling doors are exactly the same. In front of the door is a winding bluestone road. The only difference is that each small house Next to the gate of the house, there is a wooden sign with the surname simply engraved on it to identify the gate.

A torrential rain fell in the middle of the night, and the Qingshiban road was washed away with damp and clean, only a small puddle of sewage that could not be drained was still accumulated in the low-lying stone crevices where the dirt was hidden.

Mo Zhu stopped in front of the door, and didn't rush to knock on it, but subconsciously turned his head to look at the corner not far away, and his eyes fell on an old beggar with disheveled hair curled up in a ball under the eaves.

The old beggar held his hands in his sleeves and covered his face with a tattered straw hat. He seemed to be sleeping soundly with his head tilted, but in fact he was looking through the holes in the straw hat, secretly observing the movements around him.When Mo Zhu looked over, he lowered his head understandingly, indicating that there was nothing wrong with Mo Zhu, and he could enter the door safely.

Receiving this hint, Mo Zhu didn't stay any longer, stepped on the stone steps and knocked on the door lightly.As soon as the sound fell, the door opened in response, and a woman in a light yellow dress was standing inside the door.

The woman had a gentle and delicate appearance, dressed in a bun as a woman, and exuded a reassuring and gentle aura, making people subconsciously unable to resist being close to and trusting her.But it's a pity that in her beautiful eyes, there was a melancholy and sadness so strong that it couldn't go away.

Mo Zhu recognized that this woman was someone who was doing business for Lin Sishen, and she had a relationship with this woman a few years ago, so she did not hesitate, and quickly stepped across the threshold sideways with the lacquer box in hand, and walked into the door.

"Miss Mo Zhu, long time no see."

The woman closed the door, turned to look at Mo Zhu, and called out softly, with a familiar tone as if greeting a friend she had known for many years.

"Ah."

Mo Zhu replied coldly, and wanted to turn around and leave, but out of the corner of his eye, he inadvertently glanced at the string of exquisite lapis lazuli beads on the woman's left wrist, in the dimness, flowing beautiful blue. blue glow.

The unintentional glance caused Mo Zhu to stop, she hesitated for a while, lowered her eyes and said softly: "It's true that Miss Liu and I haven't seen each other for a long time."

The woman covered her lips and smiled softly when she heard the words, and sighed softly: "I will leave the capital as soon as the city gate opens at dawn. It is my good fortune to see Miss Mozhu again when I leave."

Mo Zhu was a little astonished, she looked up at the woman suspiciously, and couldn't help asking: "Why did Miss Liu say that?"

There was a smile on the corner of the woman's lips, she lowered her eyes and explained softly: "Since Longyou returned to Beijing, the young master has never been to Baiyaotang, I wanted to say something to the young master in person, but I didn't have the chance to see the young master. Miss Mozhu is the person next to the young master, if you want to come and listen to the girl, it is like talking to the young master, forget it and fulfill my wish."

Mo Zhu clasped his hands quietly: "Miss Liu, tell me, I...will pass on the message to the young master on behalf of the girl."

The woman smiled gratefully at Mo Zhu, with a clear smile on her face, but her eyes were full of strong sorrow, and she trembled word by word: "Please tell me, young master, he and I are willing to do things for you. I have never had even the slightest bit of resentment towards the young master, and I am the same, when I asked to resign from the capital, it was only out of hopelessness, not because I harbored any resentment towards the young master, I hope the young master will not blame myself for this."

Mo Zhu listened to the woman's earnest words, and felt a little depressed for no reason. She nodded with a complicated expression and said, "I will tell you these words, but Miss Liu, the reason why you don't go to Baicaotang is actually because ..."

The woman waved her hand and interrupted Mo Zhu's words with a smile: "Ms. Mo Zhu doesn't need to explain for the young master. In fact, I know that although the young master didn't show up to see me, she would send someone to watch over me every night, for fear that I would commit suicide at night. , and even bothered to have someone pretend to be a patient to go to the pharmacy to get medicine, and to enlighten me on purpose through someone else's mouth, and sent a noisy little girl to my side, because she was afraid that I would be left alone."

As if thinking of something, the sadness in the woman's eyes dissipated a bit: "Thank you, sir, I have taken that little girl as my apprentice. Although she is noisy, she is obedient and clingy. Now that I don't see me for half a day, she will cry .After leaving Beijing, I will take her to travel around to practice medicine and donate medicines. I have already let go of my worries, and now I only hope that the young master can let go as soon as possible."

Listening to the woman's calm narration, Mo Zhu could feel that she seemed to have let go, so he secretly heaved a sigh of relief, it was for this woman and also for Lin Sishen.

After speaking with Mo Zhu, the woman said goodbye and left. Mo Zhu stood motionless, watching her back quietly, watching her open the door, step over the threshold, and walk out of the gray-brown high wall. Facing the ray of light that shines on the horizon, go to the wider world calmly and peacefully.

The woman's back had long since disappeared, but Mo Zhu hadn't come back to her senses for a long time. She stared blankly at the bluestone road extending in all directions outside the door, and there was an indescribable longing in her heart.

But she... didn't know what she was yearning for?

Just when Mo Zhu was in a daze, a woman's cold voice suddenly came from behind her, piercing the inexplicable melancholy in her heart.

"You are envious of her."

Mo Zhu's startled body trembled, and she came back to her senses in an instant. She widened her eyes and turned her head to look at Li Luo who appeared not far behind her.

Li Luo was wearing a neat black bunt, with cascading blue hair casually tied behind his head, his complexion was as cold and pale as ever, and his light brown eyes, as sharp as eagle eyes, looked straight into Mo Zhu's eyes, as if he could see her at a glance. mind.

Mo Zhu lowered her head in a panic, and after she collected her thoughts quickly, she calmly walked to Li Luo's side, bowed her body and said respectfully: "As the young master ordered, the maidservant will deliver the medicinal food to the young lady."

After finishing speaking, Mo Zhu looked up at Li Luo's attire, frowned slightly, and asked softly, "I wonder what Miss Li Luo is going to do with this attire?"

Li Luo glanced at her lightly, and said two words from his mouth concisely: "Practice the sword."

Mo Zhu shook his head when he heard the words, and persuaded softly: "The girl still needs to cultivate for a few days, it's not advisable to work too much, it's better to go back to the room to rest."

Li Luo looked ahead calmly: "The wounds on my body have healed up, so I don't need to bother Miss Mo Zhu to deliver herbal meals every day, and the guards outside the door can also leave."

Mo Zhu seemed to know what Li Luo would say, so he lowered his eyes and said: "Master, if the girl insists on going her own way, she will send more people tomorrow to take care of the girl's daily necessities."

Li Luo looked at Mo Zhu who lowered his eyebrows and looked down respectfully in front of him, put down his hands and said: "She knows that no matter how many people she sends, she won't be able to keep an eye on me."

Mo Zhu glanced at the long sword in Li Luo's hand, pursed his lips and said hesitantly: "Master is worried about the girl's injury, but the girl..."

Li Luo interrupted Mo Zhu's words, and asked directly: "Just now, you must be envious of Miss Liu."

Mo Zhu's eyes flashed, he took a deep breath secretly, and asked softly, "Why did Miss Li Luo say that?"

Li Luo didn't answer when she heard the words, a complex look seemed to flash across her face, she asked instead: "Are you envious of Miss Liu who can let go calmly? Or are you envious of Miss Liu who can leave the capital without worries?"

Mo Zhu lowered his eyes and remained silent for a long time, then suddenly raised his eyes to look at Li Luo, and met Li Luo's probing gaze without avoiding: "Then how about you, Miss Li Luo?"

It is undeniable that Li Luo was stunned for a moment because of Mo Zhu's anti-client, but soon she came back to her senses, frowned and looked at Mo Zhu in surprise, and murmured softly: "Me?"

Mo Zhu said in a calm tone: "Miss Li Luo is not someone who cares about other people's concerns, but since Miss Li Luo asked, she must have felt something. If I say I envy Miss Liu, I'm afraid Miss Li Luo also envies her. "

It was rare for Li Luo to be interested in Mo Zhu's words. She leaned against the door lightly, and opened her lips and asked softly: "Then tell me, why should I envy her?"

Mo Zhu smiled: "I envy Miss Liu who can put it down calmly, I envy her that she can leave without any worries."

Hearing this, Li Luo lowered his eyes and smiled softly, a rare smile appeared on his indifferent face, just like the epiphyllum that bloomed overnight, it was short but beautiful and exciting: "Isn't that what I just asked you?"

Mo Zhu nodded seriously: "Miss Li Luo has guessed what's on my mind, but she has no intention of telling what's on her mind."

After a smile, Li Luo returned to that indifferent look of refusing to be seen thousands of miles away, opened his lips and said lightly: "It seems that you and I are both trapped in one thing."

Mo Zhu lowered his eyes with a feeling of sadness, and glanced at the food box in his hand inadvertently, his face suddenly changed: "This... I blame my negligence for delaying the time, this medicinal food is cold."

After finishing speaking, Mo Zhu turned around in a hurry, and trotted towards the kitchen by the side of the house: "Miss Li Luo, wait a moment, I'll use the back kitchen to heat it up and bring it over."

Li Luo looked at Mo Zhu's hurried back, seeing that she was used to behave in a well-behaved manner without being surprised, it was rare to see her act reckless once, so he smiled knowingly.

Ever since Meng Yange left, Mo Zhu has been taking care of Li Luo, and she comes almost every day to change and deliver medicines for Li Luo.After Li Luo recovered from his injuries, she still sent carefully cooked medicinal meals every day to take care of Li Luo's body.

Mo Zhu's heart is as delicate as silk, and he treats Li Luo politely and respectfully, but although they have been together for a long time, the two hardly have much interaction.Mo Zhu doesn't talk much, Li Luo talks even less, and sometimes they don't even speak a word.

When the medicinal food was brought, Mo Zhu waited with downcast eyes, watched Li Luo eat the medicinal food one bite at a time, then put away the bowls and chopsticks and left.Apart from occasionally leaning over to touch the treading snow rubbing against his feet, he didn't do any other actions.

But today is really rare, the two of them were able to talk openly for a while.

Li Luo was leaning against the door thoughtfully, stroking the long sword in his hand, looking over the high wall into the distance, looking at the faint light that was gradually brightening in the sky.

It's not bound by a high wall, but the ground is a prison. If you can't break through it for a day, you will be trapped here for a day.
