Chapter 554 Mission ([-])

Because it was to escort the eldest prince of the Qiang nationality back to the Qiang nationality, in addition to the dozen or so people brought by Nitule, the king of Zhou sent more than 20 elite soldiers to accompany him for protection.Naturally, he didn't want to attract too many people's attention, and he didn't want anything to happen to Nitule in Zhou's territory.

Half a month later, they finally arrived at Wucheng. It only took five days from Wucheng to the border. As soon as the carriage entered the city and Nitu Le got off the carriage, the Qiang soldiers in the city cheered.

Compared with the Qiang soldiers wearing animal skins in Wucheng, Nitule's outfit is very similar to that of the people from the Central Plains. He is dressed in a jade-colored gown, and his blond hair is tied up with black jade hairpins. The appearance is charming, and it is completely different from the dirty appearance in the past.

The Qiang soldiers looked at Nitule with almost fascination, but they dared not go forward.

"Go back and tell your father that I have returned with Princess Zhou. Take our brothers and withdraw from the border..."

What Nitule said made the Qiang soldiers present look at each other in blank dismay. Did they hear correctly?After finally getting here, the eldest prince actually wants them to withdraw?No matter how many doubts they had in their hearts, they didn't dare to question Nitule's decision, so they could only follow Nitulle's words.

Five days later, Nitu Le took Mu Jinshi out of the border and returned all the captured cities to King Zhou to show that he had fulfilled his promise.

After tens of miles out of the border, there is a long stretch of yellow sand ahead, and the wind blows up the rough sand and slaps it on the face, which is painful.After leaving the border, they can't take a carriage, they can only go on horseback.

The scorching sun is above, and the yellow sand is rolling below. Looking up, there are yellow colors everywhere, without a single bit of bright green. Mu Jinshi covered his face with a veil to avoid being hurt by the wind and sand. .

Mu Xingrui on the other side seemed a little unprepared, his fair face was already flushed due to the sun exposure, a gust of wind blew past, and there were a few more wounds on his face cut by the wind and sand, he didn't look as chic as before appearance.

Nitu Le looked at Mu Jinshi in a blink of an eye, and couldn't help chuckling: "The eldest princess seems to come to the desert often, and she knows how to cover her face with things. Ordinary people have to suffer enough from the wind and sand when they enter the desert for the first time! It seems , the eldest princess was born suitable for living in the desert."

"I am suitable to live in the place I like, and this desert is not the place I like." Mu Jinshi had no intention of chatting with Nitu Le, and rode forward.

After walking for a long time, the sky gradually darkened, and a full moon rose from the other side of the sand dunes. The desert changed its face in an instant. The first moment was still hot, and the next moment it was refreshingly cool.Mu Xingrui couldn't help but hugged his arms tightly and rubbed them.

In the blink of an eye, Mu Jinshi had already put on a plush cloak at some point, and he felt very warm just by looking at it.Sure enough, Mu Jinshi was well prepared.

Even the elite soldiers sent by Zhou Guo to escort them couldn't bear the desert climate, they all looked pale, and their walking pace slowed down.

"Here we are..." Nitu Le stopped walking, looked ahead and smiled slightly.

Under the moonlight, a small town appeared among the sand dunes in front of it. The high sand dunes around the small town were like city walls, resisting the invasion of wind and sand. A river ran through the small town like a green belt. Lush trees grew on both sides of the small river. , the emerald green color makes people who have seen the yellow sand all day can't help but feel happy.
