Therefore, the meaning of Mohong can be interpreted as unknown and unfamiliar red. In addition, Mohong can also be used as an adjective, such as describing a mysterious red color that cannot be defined.
Mohong is often used in literary creation, and the mysterious and unknown images and emotions it embodies often leave a deep impression on people. In "A Dream of Red Mansions", the effect of the emeralds in the Grand View Garden flying sideways like a mirror is described as "a strange red and a faint blue". In Li Qingzhao's "Like a Dream", there is also a description of "Dreaming back to Wushan, playing the flute and intoxicating the world, the mulberry trees on the road are green, and spring is as old as before". The "mulberry trees on the road are green" also uses the image of Mo Hong.
