Ningxia is the Yinchuan of later generations. In the Song Dynasty, it belonged to the Xingqing Mansion of the Western Xia, and in 1227 A.D., the Mongols destroyed the Western Xia, and changed it to "the province of Zhongxing in the Western Xia", and then changed to the Ningxia Fu Road, from which Ningxia got its name. In the Ming Dynasty, Ningxia Mansion was set up, which was one of the important towns on the nine sides.

In later generations, Su Mo did not come to Ningxia, in his impression, not to mention the changes of the times, just close to the border fortress, which was originally a city of ethnic minorities, should probably be rough and simple, with a foreign demeanor.

However, when he followed the flow of people into the city, he was very surprised by what he saw.

Their group was from the city where Zhaoyang was imprisoned. The so-called Zhaoyang Pass is actually a gate built outside the south gate of Ningxia City.

There are six gates in Ningxia City, Qinghe at the east gate, Zhenyuan at the west gate, Desheng at the north gate, Nanxun at the south gate, Guanghua at the southwest, and Zhenwu at the northwest.

In addition to the north and south gates, the other four gates were built with the Moon Castle, and only the north and south gates were built as the Guancheng. These two gates are called "Zhaoyang Pass" and "Pingyu Pass" respectively.

From a distance, you can see that the two gates are all heavy buildings and roofs, but there are dozens of hanging buildings and auxiliary buildings. So that the whole city, just at a glance, people can live with a majestic and magnificent feeling, and it is indeed worthy of the name of the nine towns of the border pass.

After passing the pass, it is a stone bridge, and the bridge is called Honghuaqu Bridge. Under the bridge, the waves are rugged, and Meng Ying is explaining that the road is called Nantang.

As far as the eye can see, this Nantang has about 100 acres. The water is clear, meandering far away from another piece of water, but on the other side is the Jinbo Lake at the east gate.

As far as the eye can see, the two bodies of water are verdant with flowers and trees, and although it is the late autumn season, they still show vigorous vitality. In the lake, the boats are rippling, and the gulls and herons are fishing.

Between the large areas of lotus, the building boat and light boat come and go on it, and there is a faint sound of orchestral silk music.

Meng Ying listened to Su Mo's admiration, and couldn't help showing a proud look on his face, stroking his beard and smiling: "What Mr. said is exact, don't you know that the local people call it Northwest Suzhou and Hangzhou." ”

Su Mo sighed, nodded and said, "It's kind of interesting." Then he looked at the painting boats and said with a smile: "I don't know the content of it, but it's the same as Suzhou and Hangzhou?"

Meng Ying's face showed a look that all men understand, his eyes secretly glanced at He Ying next to him, and laughed in a low voice: "When each has its own merits." If the gentleman is interested, the old man can arrange one or two. ”

A flash of light flashed in Su Mo's eyes, and he was about to open his mouth to say something, but He Ying's little hand next to him had already touched his waist and ribs, and he filed his glutinous rice teeth and said hatefully: "No, you are not allowed to go to that kind of place!"

After that, Meng Ying, who stared at Meng Ying who shrank his head fiercely, said: "Originally, looking at your age, you were still a steady and generous elder, but you didn't know that you didn't teach people well, you are really old and not ashamed!"

Meng Ying suddenly thought about it. turned his head to look at Su Mo, and then at the fat man, but saw that one of the two looked up at the sky, and the other looked down at the ground, as if there was suddenly an endless beauty.

A black line hung down on the door of Meng Ying's head, your sister's! This standard is the dead Dao friend is not the dead poor Dao. Depressed at the same time, but I feel that this is wronged, I am only in my forties, why is he an age?

Also, what do you mean that I don't teach people well? Just now, it was obviously your man who brought it up first, but I just responded to two sentences, this is the way of hospitality, how can it be my sin? I am not ashamed of my old age? Is there still a place to reason?

smashed his mouth, but it was not good to argue with He Ying as a girl, so he had to turn his head in disdain.

Here, He Ying glared at Su Mo again and threatened: "If you dare to mess around, I will ...... I told Sister Xing'er to go. Well, still ...... I also want to tell Cheng Demon Girl, see if you are ashamed or not. ”

Well, this woman, in order to prevent her man from looking for flowers and asking willows, she was stunned and even pulled out her rival in love.

Su Mo is speechless. His eyes widened, and he said righteously: "Don't slander me! What kind of mess, I'm just for the purpose of research, at most it's just to collect style." This is knowledge, going deep into the folk to understand all kinds of customs and customs, is it a very serious matter, understand?"

The fat man and Meng Ying stiffened their faces and smiled, their shoulders shrugged slightly, and their faces turned purple. How shameless can this person be? Searching for flowers and asking willows can be said to be a comprehension of folk customs. Great, can you get rid of the previous custom? Feeling the customs is the main purpose of your old age.

After all, the fat man had been with Su Mo for a long time, and seeing Su Mo leaning over with an unkind gaze, he coughed hurriedly, and pulled Meng Ying and walked towards the grass donkey and others in the distance.

As he walked, he said loudly: "You are not ashamed, what are you messing around here?" Hey, what is the thing over there, come and talk to the fat man." ”

Meng Ying hung down and fell down, staggered and was pulled away, and at the same time, he glared at this shameless fat man fiercely, and his heart was angry and depressed: Damn, is it Lao Tzu for Mao and Lao Tzu?

The two of them walked to the side, Su Mo's face turned a little pale, coughed, and said softly to He Ying: "Okay, don't you know me yet? I'm not that kind of person." Qinglou brothels or something, I never go there, I've always been clean. ”

He Ying was wronged by the training he had just hauled, and when she heard him talk to herself like this, she couldn't help but pout, turned her body to the side, and couldn't help but retort in a low voice: "Lie to the ghost, I don't know who was in Wuqing back then, and I was eye-to-head with that Yun Niang." ”

Saying this, his heart was finally empty, and he peeked at Su Mo's face again. It's just that I can't help but be stunned. But seeing that Su Mo's expression was quite strange at the moment, his eyes looked fixedly at a painting boat in the lake, as if he was crazy.

This suddenly made Miss He Er completely crazy. I thought I was too sensitive just now, and I wanted to admit my mistake by talking to him. But look at the current appearance of this guy, that one is fascinated, do you want to put your eyeballs on it to see?

"Sue-Mo!" she cried out as she gritted her teeth. The little white teeth grinded like they were going to pounce on them the next moment, and they would only get rid of their hatred when someone took a bite.

"Huh?" Su Mo still seemed to be a little distracted, and he responded in a daze, without turning his gaze. But fortunately, his divine sense was strong, and he reacted the next moment, waved his hand at He Ying, and said in a deep voice: "Don't make trouble, there is something serious!"

As he said this, the expression on his face also turned solemn, as if he was still thoughtful. He Ying had just been deceived by him, where would she believe him at this time?

Listening to this wrongdoer yelling at himself again, he couldn't help but feel a sense of grievance in his heart, and his eyes were obviously full of water.

Twisting his head to the side, he wiped his eyes fiercely, and said coldly: "Okay, in this case, I won't get in the way of you here." I'll go back first, and you can just go about your business. After that, without waiting for Su Mo to respond, he stomped his foot and turned around and ran out, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Su Mo raised his hand in the air, frowned slightly and looked at the direction she was leaving, and only then sighed lightly and put his hand down. Turning his head to look at the painting boat again, he turned his head and beckoned to Meng Ying.

Meng Ying and the others all noticed the situation just now, and were hesitating whether to come over to persuade them, when they suddenly saw Su Mo beckoning, and hurriedly came over.

Su Mo didn't say much about He Ying, but just said to the three of them: "The three of you go over and follow, just accompany her, don't let her have anything wrong." ”

The three of them bowed, and Huzi opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but the grass donkey next to him grabbed him, pulled him around and left.

When the three of them walked away, the fat man suddenly said: "Young master, there are a lot of fish and dragons here, and Miss He is alone, there is always something wrong." Or you're still ......."

Su Mo glanced at him, waved his hand, but turned to Meng Ying and said, "Layman, you may check, who is on that painting boat today?"

Meng Ying was stunned for a moment, and looked in the direction he pointed, only to see that it was the largest painting boat in the lake. The carved beams and paintings are extremely gorgeous, and with a slight turn in my mind, I remember that this painting boat is the Lijing Garden in the city. This Lijing Garden is one of the best green buildings in Ningxia City, and it is very famous in the city. Rumor has it that the background behind this beauty garden is unfathomable.

Recalling this information in his mind, he briefly said it to Su Mo, and beckoned a family member to whisper a few words. The family bowed and quickly turned away.

When the man was gone, there were only three of them left and right, and no one else. Meng Ying hesitated and whispered, "Why does the Immortal Master want to check the painting boat? If you just want to...... Ahem, but it doesn't have to be that troublesome. ”

Su Mo glanced at him, and said lightly: "You really think I am ** heartbroken?Hmph, wait and see, and wait until your subordinates bring back the results." With that, he ignored him, and looked up at the boat again, and then turned and stood still in the shade of a nearby tree.

Meng Ying felt embarrassed and secretly regretted it in his heart. The fat man next to him glared at him angrily, and said in a low voice: "Mu Zhuo, you must not forget your identity! You must know that there is a difference between immortals, what kind of person the young master is, and what he does is naturally reasonable, how can you easily guess it? Remember, don't be like this again! Fortunately, the young master is elegant and generous, otherwise it will ......."

He paused when he said this, Meng Ying's face was dark, he nodded with a bitter face, and sighed deeply.

The fat man squinted at him and sneered, "What, but you're still not convinced? Hmph! I'll tell you the truth, how can the young master be confused by a mere woman? If my expectations are good, then there must be something strange on the painting boat! If I were you, I would definitely be cautious and cautious." Otherwise, it is still a trivial matter for you and me to verbally collide with the young master, and if you miss the young master's matter, it will be really unforgivable. With that, he ignored him and trotted over to stand beside Su Mo.

Meng Ying was stunned by what he said, thought about it for a while, and suddenly his face changed. He turned around and made a gesture in a certain direction, and then a man ran over.

Meng Ying calmed his face and whispered a few words again. The man solemnly bowed in agreement, and then disappeared in a few leaps.

Meng Ying looked at the direction of the man in a daze, half a sound, then sighed lightly, hesitated, walked in front of Su Mo, and said curtly: "Immortal Master, old ......."

Su Mo raised his eyes and glanced at him, waved his hand and said indifferently: "Forget it, you are also kind." It's just that the things on the ship must be careful, and don't leak the traces here. If I'm not mistaken, there's a ....... up there."

When he said this, his voice was slammed, and he did not continue. It's just that the eyes that look over there are uncertain, but the light that occasionally shoots out is extremely sharp, which makes Meng Ying's heart tremble. secretly glanced at the fat man next to him with low eyebrows and drooping eyes, and was secretly grateful.

If it weren't for the fat man's words just now, I'm afraid that it would really be a big deal for Su Mo. The person sent out earlier was just an ordinary family member on the face, and according to his instructions at the beginning, he would only ask people in a big way. If that's the case, the details of your side will inevitably be known.

Fortunately, he made up for his own mistakes later, and sent a henchman to the past. Thinking of it, he almost didn't completely evil Su Mo, and a cold sweat broke out on his body. How dare you say more and ask more questions at this time? Seeing that Su Mo stopped talking, he bowed slightly and stood beside the fat man.

Under the shade of the tree, the three of them stood there quietly, no one spoke, patiently waiting for the news to return.

The light in Su Mo's eyes changed, and his thoughts seemed to be pulled back to the former Wuqing City. That day, too, was so sunny. At that moment, the figure sang in a clear voice, like a spirit in the world.......
