Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, I have a treasure chest so I don't have to wo
Chapter 321 Different Xuancheng
Although Xu Ning's target has always been those high-ranking officials and wealthy people, it is inevitable that some ordinary people have witnessed the true faces of the female ghosts.
That night, the entire Lake City fell into chaos and panic. Screams echoed through the night sky, and people fainted from fear everywhere in the streets and alleys.
Faced with such a situation, Xu Ning was so busy that he didn't even have time to drink a sip of water.
As the crowd fled in all directions, stampedes occurred several times. Fortunately, at the critical moment, she was able to quickly mobilize the "female ghost" to scare the panicked people, so that no major disaster was caused.
The reason why Xu Ning did this was that her real intention was to make everything that happened in Lake City known to everyone, so that the powerful people in Lake City could no longer cover up the truth.
This will inevitably alert higher-level officials who will be sent to investigate and deal with the matter.
In this way, a whole night passed, and it was dawn. With the morning light just breaking, Xu Ning finally cleaned up the tail with two big black circles on his head.
In addition to retrieving those creepy "female ghosts", she was also responsible for recovering the many cameras that had been placed previously.
All the images captured by these cameras were specially saved by Xu Ning.
If the officials who come to deal with the matter later turn a blind eye and deal perfunctorily with it, then she will probably have to stay up all night again to release various videos that expose ugly acts such as corruption and bribery.
Fortunately, the person sent by the court to deal with the matter did not handle it perfunctorily.
However, because this incident was so strange and bizarre, and the people of Daqing Dynasty believed in gods and ghosts, for a long time afterwards, the whole city of Hucheng was filled with rumors that Chunfeng Tower was so sinful that it was cursed by heaven.
Not long after, the once famous Chunfeng Tower closed its doors and disappeared from sight.
Not only that, other high-ranking officials who were involved in the incident were not spared and were thoroughly investigated.
As the investigation progressed, it was shocking that even some high-ranking officials in the capital were implicated.
Upon learning of this, the emperor was furious and immediately ordered the confiscation of property of all those involved in the case and their execution by beheading.
By the time the news reached Xu Ning's ears, she had already run to several places.
On the third afternoon after the Lake City ghost story, the sun was still shining brightly on the earth.
Xu Ning stood on the top of the mountain, staring towards the direction of Hucheng.
She deliberately left two drones hovering in the sky above Lake City, while Xu Ning himself put the RV into the space, ready to embark on a new journey, continuing to move westward.
Her next stop is Xuancheng!
The road from Hucheng to Xuancheng was rugged and had to cross several steep mountains. This journey was no easier than the one from the valley, so Xu Ning started his outdoor life of traveling during the day and resting at night.
During the day, time passed by like the sand in an hourglass, and Xu Ning was on the road almost non-stop.
Only when the sun sets and night falls does she stop to look for some wild vegetables nearby, or set out a few hunting cages to catch game.
Xu Ning spent every day in the mountains very fulfilling, and her skills in slaughtering animals and cooking became more and more proficient.
Time slipped away quietly, and in a blink of an eye, Xu Ning had been walking in the mountains for seven or eight days.
As the bamboo forests along the way became more dense and numerous, she became more cautious.
On the one hand, scattered villages began to appear where the terrain became gradually flatter, and it was obviously no longer suitable to release RVs at will; on the other hand, Xu Ning could often meet people even when he was not near the bamboo forest, and without exception they all made a living by eating bamboo.
That morning, Xu Ning met an uncle carrying a basket of bamboo sticks.
"Uncle, did you weave this big backpack you are carrying yourself?" Xu Ning asked curiously.
When the uncle heard this, a trace of pride appeared on his face: "Yes! Three generations of my family have made a living by weaving bamboo. What do you think, little girl, are you interested in the bamboo products in our village? Let me tell you, the bamboo flat weaves in our village are famous far and wide, and can be regarded as the top craftsmanship in the surrounding area!"
Xu Ning naturally noticed that the uncle's bamboo backpack was very well woven, otherwise he would not have asked.
"Of course. Uncle, can you take me to your village to have a look? If there is anything suitable, I can buy some and take them back home on the way." Xu Ning replied with a smile.
The uncle readily agreed: "How difficult is that? Our village is not far from here, just follow me."
So Xu Ning followed the uncle to the village where he lived.
As expected, as soon as you enter the village, you can see all kinds of exquisite bamboo products drying in front of every household. Among them are not only practical tools, but also lifelike animal shapes.
Xu Ning was deeply attracted by the dazzling array of bamboo weaving products in front of him, and unknowingly walked to the side of an old man who was concentrating on weaving.
Looking at the old man with white hair and his hands skillfully fiddling with the bamboo sticks, Xu Ning couldn't help but think of the time when he and the Xu family fled famine when he first arrived.
At that time, whenever Old Man Xu stopped to rest, he would always sit quietly and weave bamboo products like the old man in front of him...
"Little girl, do you want to buy a basket or a crate?" The uncle's house was right next to the grandfather's. Seeing Xu Ning squatting there without moving, he picked out a few exquisite baskets and crates from his home and handed them to Xu Ning.
"I want all of these." Xu Ning said, and at the same time he picked a few from the old man, paid the money and walked towards Xuancheng.
Compared with Hucheng, Xuancheng is slightly smaller in scale, but it has a unique charm.
Xu Ning strolled through the streets and alleys and found that most of the items sold here were paper and exquisite bamboo products.
These goods are dazzling and unique, as if showcasing the unique cultural heritage and handicraft inheritance of this small town.
Xu Ning was tired from traveling, so he found an inn that looked quite nice and checked in.
When the waiter at the inn saw Xu Ning, a young girl, he did not neglect her at all because she was alone. He was diligent and attentive, and quickly delivered the food Xu Ning ordered to her room.
"Brother Waiter, I have a favor to ask of you. Could you please buy me some delicious food from nearby?" After the food was placed properly, Xu Ning said to the waiter with a smile.
"Of course there is no problem. As long as you pay the full amount, we can even let our shopkeeper buy it for you!" The waiter responded very happily, revealing his enthusiasm and sincerity.
It turned out that most of the people who traveled in Xuancheng were merchants from all over the country, and it was rare for someone like Xu Ning to come here for sightseeing. Therefore, the waiter was very happy to have the opportunity to earn extra income.
So Xu Ning took out a silver ingot from his pocket and handed it to the waiter, and said, "Put it in the backpack and bring it back. This silver is for you. If it's not enough, come to me again! I want all the delicious food in Xuancheng! I don't want anything that's not delicious!"
After hearing what Xu Ning said, the waiter immediately patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, if you buy something that doesn't taste good, then consider it as a treat from me and give it to you, young lady! Just wait and enjoy the food!"
After saying that, he took the silver and prepared to leave happily.
Then, Xu Ning ordered again: "Remember to ask someone to bring a bucket of bath water to my room later!"
The waiter nodded repeatedly and said he would do as he was told while closing the door.
