Chapter 260

"Is this a royal palace or something?" Xia Enxue whispered as she wiped her forehead with the sleeve of her shirt.The sun had risen high, and the sun was shining brightly.

"It's possible, and it's a place where a rich king once lived. I don't know when it happened."

"Did it become a park after the monarchy ended... It would be great if there was a guide who taught history." Xia Enxue said somewhat ironically.

The little squirrel also echoed, "That's right, I want to hear it all the time."

Xia Enxue pushed the little squirrel into the building to check.

The hall is decorated with dozens of pieces of stained glass, the bathroom is much larger than that of an ordinary home, the corridors are endless, etc. The interior decoration is no less luxurious than the exterior.

But everywhere is dusty.

Xia Enxue and the little squirrel almost finished their visit and came to the back of the building.Here is the lanai, just right to look across the large backyard.

"It's really good." The little squirrel looked at the scenery in front of him and muttered.Xia Enxue didn't say anything, she leaned out from the balcony, as if she saw something.

is the grave.

Among the green weeds in the backyard, there is a grave that was simply piled up with soil and a thin wooden plank stood on it.

Graves line the backyard as far as the eye can see.There are thousands, tens of thousands, anyway, it is impossible to count them.

The backyard was originally a hunting ground for the court nobles, or a resting place for citizens. There are no words to explain it.But now there is only this huge cemetery.

Xia Enxue took a long, deep breath.I looked away for a while.

Summer was slowly sinking to the west, and the sky quietly began to lose its brightness.The light in the shadow of the building fades quickly, as if sinking into the ground.

The little squirrel muttered,

"Xia Enxue, shouldn't everyone here be dead?"

"..."

"The survivors don't know where they are. This is an abandoned country."

"...Maybe, but why?"

"do not know."

Xia Enxue looked back at the little squirrel and leaned on the armrest of the balcony.

"It's useless to stay here, let's go to the next country."

Xia Enxue shook her head lightly,
"No, we're staying here tonight and we're leaving tomorrow morning. It's not been three days yet."

The little squirrel was very surprised and asked: "It's like this again, what's the point of staying in a country for three days?"

Xia Enxue smiled slightly.

"A traveler I met a long time ago said this...it's just right."

"Is there such a thing?" The little squirrel muttered uninterestedly.

Xia Enxue leaned on the handrail and turned her head, looking at the cemetery again.

Xia Enxue and the others ushered in the morning of the third day in the hut at the entrance of the park.

Xia Enxue got up at dawn as usual.Did gun maintenance and training, wiped down with wet towels, had breakfast.Then after packing up the luggage, he woke up the little squirrel.

Xia Enxue put the vest on the shirt, fastened the belt, and confirmed the gun in the holster again.

Xia Enxue set off towards Ximen.

Mornings in the ghost town are as serene as any other town.

Xia Enxue let the sound of the little squirrel's engine echo among the buildings and drove at a speed exceeding the traffic regulations.

Just when she could see the city wall, Xia Enxue noticed a farm tractor parked in front of the door.

There are mountains of vegetables and fruits piled high in the back of the tractor.In the driver's seat sat a man whose face was hidden by a hat.The man was about 30 years old and was wearing work clothes stained with mud.

"Xia Enxue, there are people! There are people in this country!" the little squirrel said excitedly.

Xia Enxue and the others approached the tractor.The man was still sleeping. He frowned when he heard the noise of the little squirrel's engine, shook his head slightly, and opened his eyes.He saw Xia Enxue in front of him at a glance.
