Only beneficial to Dan Xin, can add white invention. If you know the land like the back of your hand, don't follow the western camp of the country.
The cowherd in the sky will meet the weaver girl, and the moonlight on earth will be clearer and brighter. The moon will not be submerged after crossing Tianhe every day, and the jade rabbit playing medicine will live forever. Looking at the moon will only increase the pain in my heart, and the moonlight will also illuminate my new white hair. Moon, you should have seen wars everywhere, so don't follow the barracks in the west of China.
