Chapter 267: Arriving in the Northwest

Because of the escort of Kyoto's guards, nothing happened along the way, and after walking non-stop for nearly two months, the team successfully reached the first city on the northwest border, Haoning County.

As soon as he entered the city, Jiang Xing had to part ways with Zhu Ruru and his party.

"I wish the girl, there are some things to do, just take the first step, I will settle down in Tianning Restaurant during this time, I wish the girl can come to me at any time."

As he spoke, he glanced at Meng Huaiyan, took out a porcelain vase from his sleeve pocket, and handed it to Zhu Ruru.

"What is this?"

Jiang Xing explained, "This is a medicine that I have developed during this time, which can suppress the bloodthirsty Gu, although it cannot be completely subdued, it can reduce its blood-sucking amount and the number of times it is active. ”

Although the bloodthirsty Gu in Meng Huaiyan's body looks small, the "amount of food" is not small, and he has to suck a lot of blood from Meng Huaiyan's body every time.

If it weren't for Zhu Ruru's daily use of various nourishing and blood-generating medicines on Meng Huaiyan, he wouldn't know what his weakness would look like now.

As soon as he heard Jiang Xing say that the medicine he handed over could reduce the amount of blood sucking and the number of activity of Gu worms, Zhu Ruru's eyes suddenly lit up, and she took it gratefully.

"Jiang Gongzi, thank you!"

Along the way, Jiang Xing and their team almost ate and lived together.

I set out every day before it was completely dawn, and I didn't find a place to rest until it was dark.

Sometimes, because of the remoteness of the way, they even make a random fire on the side of the road for a night.

After such a tiring journey, he did not forget to study the medicine that could suppress Gu worms.

Thinking of this, Zhu Ruru's gratitude to Jiang Xing suddenly became stronger.

"You're welcome, we're partners and friends, aren't we?" Jiang Xing said with a smile.

Zhu Ruru was slightly stunned, and then laughed too, "Yes, yes, we are friends." ”

As soon as Jiang Xing left, the chief of the guard Zhao also took Zhu Ruru to the government office of Haoning County to hand over, and after the handover, their escort task this time was completed.

They were received by Qiu Jie, the county magistrate of Haoning County, and when he learned that Zhu Ruru was sent by the emperor, his face was a little pale.

As early as a month ago, their commander-in-chief had received a message from Kyoto that the emperor had sent a man of outstanding ability to the northwest to help them solve the problem of food shortage and the construction of the city wall.

For the past month, they have been looking forward to it.

I hope there is really such a capable person who can help them solve these problems.

When County Lieutenant Qiu heard that Zhu Ruru was this "capable person", his heart instantly became cold, and it was really difficult for him to overlap her with the "capable person" he had imagined and been looking forward to for a long time.

This girl looks so young, can she really help them solve the problem of food shortage and building city walls?

"Girl, are you really sent by the Holy Lord to help us solve the food shortage and help us build the city wall?" County Lieutenant Qiu asked Zhu Ruru without giving up.

He really hoped that Zhu Ruru would give him a negative answer.

However, it backfired, and I saw the other party smile and nodded, "Yes, the people's girl was sent by the saint, and I will ask the adults for more advice in the next period of time." ”

County Lieutenant Qiu couldn't help but look Zhu Ruru up and down again, the smile on his face was more ugly than crying, "Excuse me, how old is the girl now?" ”

Zhu Ruru twitched the corners of her mouth, and she naturally saw the suspicion and distrust in Qiu Countywei's eyes.

She doesn't care either, and can even understand the other party.

After all, the problem of food or the problem of the city walls, which one is not a big problem?

Suddenly such a young girl came to her house, and she was ashamed to say that she could help them with these problems.

If you were anyone, you would be more or less skeptical!
