Chapter 254
Only Xue Andong and Xiao Shan knew about the matter of going to Ningzhou, the others kept it a secret for fear that they would be worried.As for the cantaloupe business, the second crop in the field has already begun to mature.

Of course, not all melons are ripe at once. There is always a priority. In this way, you can ripen and pick as many as you like, and sell fresh ones directly.

Another one, the quantity of the second crop is much less than that of the first crop, and it is not afraid that no one will buy it for five renminbi a catty.

So this business was left to Sai Dongshi to take care of it. Xiao Ningxue also believed that she had the ability to do a good job in this business.

Xiao Shan and Xue Andong sent the three of them out of the village entrance, exhorting them again and again.

"Come back earlier, don't go deep into the desert, pay attention to safety." Xue Andong confessed, hanging the bundle in his hand on Xue Ruyun's shoulder, "There are pancakes baked by your mother and some fragrant paper, bring them with you. Bar.

"Okay Dad." Xue Ruyun's face was full of joy. He was born with an adventurous spirit, and every time he went to a strange place, he would be extremely excited and looking forward to it.

Uh, even though this is to save people, it seems a bit unreasonable to be excited and looking forward to it, but he still can't suppress it.

Xiao Shan told Wu Chongwen, "Brother Wen, Xiaoxue is in your hands, take her back carefully."
Wu Chongwen nodded slightly at Xiao Shan, and then nodded at Xue Anton.

"Don't worry, Father-in-law, and Uncle Xue, I will definitely bring these two girls back."

"Well, when you come back, the county guard's mansion may have already been built." Xue Andong was quite relieved of Wu Chongwen, he had seen his kung fu and methods, with him, no matter where he went, he would be safe.

After confessing a few words, Xiao Ningxue and the others got on their horses, waved at the two old fathers, and beat the horses away from the village.After walking northwest for five or six days, we left Su'an County and entered Ningzhou.

The desert in the northwest of Ningzhou covers a vast area. The state is equivalent to a modern province, and the county is equivalent to a city.

The ancient Shu Kingdom included four prefectures, Ningzhou, Cangzhou, Ruizhou, and Nanzhou.

Su'an County belongs to Cangzhou, while Pingyang County, which fell into the hands of Dasheng Kingdom, belongs to Nanzhou, and the capital is located in Ruizhou.

These are also what Xiao Ningxue learned from Wu Chongwen last night. Since she knew her own life experience, she has become interested in the country of ancient Shu, and she is no longer as indifferent as before.

The first prime minister's daughter, the whole family was murdered to death~, these are not allowed to escape and ignore her.She must understand the situation in front of her in order to deal with the dangers she may face in the future.

She is Prime Minister Xue's only bloodline, what if her identity is leaked and she is killed?
In short, her mentality has changed a lot with the change of identity, and her vision has also been broadened accordingly.

When I first entered Ningzhou, the geographical environment and Su'an County did not change much. I saw loess slopes full of thorns and shrubs, and sometimes there were snow mountains, grasslands, and villages.

Gradually, the slopes turned into sand dunes, and the wind picked up.The strong wind rolled up the gravel, which hurt the face
Looking around, "There are no birds in the eyes, no animals under the ground, and no aquatic plants again", which is the true portrayal of this place.

After walking against the wind and sand for a few more days, this evening, under the crimson sunset, a city made of loess appeared in the sky full of yellow sand.

"That's Xianning City." Wu Chongwen said.

At this moment, there were three horses and three people on horseback. They were all wearing hoods and covering their masks, and yellow dust fell all over their bodies.

The wind blows the cloaks, making them look like travelers who have walked in the desert for many days.

"Here, there actually exists such a big city." Xiao Ningxue was quite emotional, and when she blinked her slender eyelashes, yellow dust was shaken off.

In a place like this, I'm afraid you'll be covered in sand when you sleep at night, right?
Wu Chongwen said, "To the west of Xianning City, there are many small countries in the Western Regions. Although the sky is full of yellow sand, it is also a big commercial city just like Xiping City."

"We'll be staying here tonight. Bai Zhong is waiting for us in the city. Let's go into the city."

Only Bai Zhong is familiar with this place, if he does not come, Wu Chongwen will not be able to find the exile place of King Liang.

When the three of them entered the city, the wind and sand stopped, and the red sunset smeared it, making this city of yellow sand show a different beauty.

The people here wore long robes and turbans, and their skin was darker, making Xiao Ningxue feel a bit like Indians.

On the street, someone was sweeping the yellow sand that was several inches thick, and pedestrians were in a hurry.

Many faces from the Central Plains must have been merchants traveling between the Western Regions and the Central Plains.

Soon, Wu Chongwen led Xiao Ning, who was snowing like a cloud, shook off the sand from his body, and walked into an inn.

In the inn, the shopkeeper and the waiter were dressed in gray robes, and they were immersed in cleaning, sweeping out the yellow sand on the ground and wiping off the yellow sand on the table.

Seeing a customer coming in, the shopkeeper greeted him in blunt Central Plains dialect.

"Staying? Guest?"
Wu Chongwen said casually, "Shopkeeper, is there a guest named Bai Zhong living here?"

"Yes, yes." The shopkeeper nodded hurriedly, then put down what he was doing, and walked to the counter, "This guest has reserved two upper rooms for you, please follow me."

Just as he was talking, Bai Zhong hurried upstairs and came down. He also did as the Romans did, wearing a gray robe, with a scarf half covering his head and half covering his mouth and nose.

Seeing Wu Chongwen and the other three, he hurriedly greeted them respectfully.

"Master, young lady, Snow Maiden, are you tired from traveling all the way? Go upstairs quickly."

Xue Ruyun sniffed, "I'm not tired, it's just that I ate a lot of sand." While talking, he followed Bai Zhong upstairs.

Bai Zhong smiled and said, "Unfortunately, it was fine two days ago, but today a sandstorm suddenly blew up, but fortunately it has stopped~ these two rooms are enough."

As he said that, he had already pushed the door open. He should have cleaned the room on purpose, without any sand.

The bedding on the bed was also newly replaced, and it was clean, which was a pleasant surprise.
