The inexperienced Baifu brought too much clothes and food, which made her cousin Cherry roll her eyes at her. Baifu had to smile with her to make her happy. But Cherry still frowned with her beautiful brows, sarcastically and sarcastically.

People around him couldn't help but shake their heads.

When getting on the bus, Ning Xiao suddenly grabbed the seat next to Baifu. Yingtao sat next to his boss, Mr. Su. Yao Ye was so angry that he gritted his teeth and sat alone and depressed.

Baifu who was standing next to him saw this situation and kept complaining about Ning Xiao. Ning Xiao pretended not to hear it, desperately found delicious food for Baifu, and tried his best to tell boring jokes that he thought were funny.

Traveling is indeed a very tiring thing. We kept taking cars, changing planes, and taking cars again. When we finally arrived at Baokang County near Shennongjia, it was already dark and everyone looked exhausted.

Early the next morning, it was time to set off again. This caused many young masters and ladies who were usually pampered to complain, and vented all their dissatisfaction on poor Pfaff. Pfaff accepted his work and accepted his complaints, completely ignoring the complaints of others. The highest level

On the contrary, the leaders seemed to enjoy it, especially Ling Hao, Ji Yan, and Mr. Su. What surprised Baifu was that everyone complained so much, but Yao Ye, who had always been picky, didn't say anything and looked full of energy.

appearance.

The one who complained the most was Momofuku's cousin, Cherry. She complained that the backpack was heavy and her feet hurt, so Momofuku had to carry two heavy bags and support Cherry. Next to her, Ling

Hao had actually been observing everyone, and Cherry's performance made him frown again and again. Just when Baifu was panting from exhaustion, his shoulders suddenly relaxed, and Ning Xiao took the two big bags on his shoulders and carried them on his back.

When Baifu was about to refuse, Ling Hao also came over, took one of the backpacks, and said to Baifu: "Baifu, you arranged it well. I just want to see what everyone is facing."

How will you behave in difficult times?"

As soon as these words came out, no one dared to say anything anymore. Everyone pretended to be enthusiastic even if they pretended to be so. Only Cherry had an expression of extreme dissatisfaction. Momofuku knew that he had never eaten cherries since he was a child.

It was too painful, so I wasn't angry with her at all, I just thought about how to take care of her.

Following the tour guide, everyone came to a place called Jixian Town. This place is very backward, so it has preserved its unique primitive years. But the worst thing is that there is not even a decent hotel here, which directly leads to increased dissatisfaction among everyone.

Ling Hao was quite happy, because everything was according to his plan. The expression of inner humanity was always the topic he was most interested in. As soon as he returned to the room, he discussed everyone's performance with Ji Yan.

There was no one in the town at night, and Cherry lost her temper again, insisting on having a late-night snack. Frustrated, Momofuku had no choice but to borrow the hotel stove and cook a pack of instant noodles for Cherry.

Early on the third day, everyone went to have breakfast. Baifu suddenly saw a poor little girl. The girl looked tired, as if she hadn't slept all night. When she saw the hot porridge, she immediately became motionless and thought for a long time.

Then he mustered up the courage to ask: "How much does a bowl of porridge cost?"

"One dollar." The female boss replied enthusiastically.

"One dollar? Is it so expensive?" The girl hesitated, "Can fifty cents be enough?" she begged in a low voice.

"Of course it won't work. A bowl of porridge only costs one yuan, which is too expensive for you! Then don't eat it! Go drink the northwest wind." The female boss immediately changed her face.

"Here is one dollar. Give her the porridge." Baifu said coldly to the female boss. She really couldn't stand the snobbery of the female boss.

"Okay-" the female boss replied reluctantly.

Momofuku smiled and put the hot porridge into the girl's hand, then turned and left. The girl kept looking at Momofuku with grateful eyes.

At first, Baifu thought that the matter would just go away, but he didn't expect that Baifu would meet the girl again later, and it was in Bailing Village, a small and isolated mountain village in Shaanxi Province.

Ling Hao's purpose in organizing this event is to let the middle- and high-level cadres who have always been aloof feel the difficult life. The route decided for this reason is not usually chosen by tourists, and it is also the most difficult. On this day,

After everyone climbed the mountain, they stopped at Bailing Village to rest.

The mountain village is small, the terrain is steep, and few people visit it. Therefore, the villagers who have not been polluted by the secular world are also very simple and kind. And there are many beautiful legends here.

Baifu is a very curious person, and she especially likes to listen to stories. Now she is listening to the story told by the 103-year-old Mrs. Liang, the oldest in the village. Baifu cannot understand what Mrs. Liang said.

The great-granddaughter of the old lady was translating on the side. The story was very vague. It seemed to be that there was a very beautiful and mysterious country called Xiacheng Kingdom deep in the mountains and forests. This country was full of extremely beautiful red flowers.

He was also good at making exquisite and unique porcelain, and his craftsmanship was far above the level of official cellars in the Song Dynasty at that time. Xia Chengguo used this as its main product for trade. But for some unknown reason, Xia Chengguo suddenly disappeared.

, those porcelains disappeared. Since then, no one has visited this country, and even forgotten its existence.

"What happened next? What happened next? This is a country with a lot of people. How could it just disappear? Has anyone been there? Also, aren't the red flowers beautiful? Are they still there now?

"If you have any, please give me some seeds. I want to plant some flowers in the yard." Momofuku asked eagerly. For some reason, she was extremely curious about this story and wished she could go to this country right away to see it.

"No more! Haha, silly girl, they say it's a legend, how can anyone have been there? It's all fake!" Mrs. Liang's great-granddaughter replied with a smile.

"·#￥...%—x%#·%..." Old Mrs. Liang had lost her teeth and her mouth was open, so Baifu couldn't understand what she was saying.

"My great-grandmother said that the legend is true or not. A thousand years ago, there was indeed a Xia City Kingdom, and it was hidden in the mountains. As long as you have a map, you can find that place. However, that place is very evil.

It’s better not to go.”

Unfortunately, this did not dispel Momofuku's curiosity. On the contrary, she wanted to go even more. She even planned to go on a solo trip after saving enough money to look for this mysteriously disappeared country. By the way, the name is: Mysterious Country

The trip was great. Hehe. Alas, I made too many plans and ended up having to give myself a name for even a small trip. Really, a bad habit!

"What an interesting story. Momofuku, when should we go find that Xia Chengguo?"

It turned out to be Ning Xiao, he had been eavesdropping, and he was actually very yearning for that mythical legend.

"I don't have time." Momofuku pretended not to care. She didn't want to be with this playboy. There were already too many funny scandals about the two of them. She seemed to have seen someone talking about the two of them when they traveled together.

With a bad smile on his face.

After Baifu finished speaking, he walked out under the pretense of looking at the scenery. However, the scenery here is really good. It is surrounded by green mountains, with smoky tops, plus the vast rice fields, tall fruit trees, and clear springs in the village.

The neat and old houses, as well as the buffaloes grazing leisurely, are just like the paradise described by Tao Yuanming.
