Along the way, they will encounter the same refugees who are fleeing, all of them are comforted by Ningxi and taken along with them on the road.

After another half-month journey, the team finally arrived at Xiacheng.

Looking from a distance, I saw a dilapidated and huge city standing, with a few soldiers standing scattered on the city wall. The city gate was open, but no one came in or out.

After the car approached, Ning Xi found that the gates of the city were all broken, and there were still signs of being hit.

As soon as the convoy arrived at the bottom of the city, a man in his forties walked quickly with two young soldiers.

"Who are you?" The three of them were full of curiosity, shock and preparedness for such a convoy, holding their weapons tightly in their hands.

Ning Xi got off the off-road vehicle, "This king has come to take over Xia City, what about your city master?"

The three of them looked at each other, and the man patted his head after a while, and guessed the identity of this handsome young man who looked like a fairy, "My subordinates participate in the little prince! The city owner is still in the city, the little boy To call him over?"

Half a month ago, they received the news from the City Lord's Mansion that the owner of this fief, Ning Xiaowang, was going to take the Ning family army to garrison and take over, but they didn't expect it to come so quickly.

He also thought that these nobles would travel all the way to the mountains and rivers, and it would take a long time to arrive.

Ning Xi thought about it and asked, "Is the City Lord's Mansion far from here?"

The man scratched his head, "The City Lord's Mansion is quite far from here, but the City Lord is not in the City Lord's Mansion, but works in a yard not far away."

"Okay, then you don't need to call him, this king will follow you and see you there." Ning Xi said.

The man naturally did not dare to resist, "Yes, the little prince please!"

Ningxi ordered Mu You to wait first in the car outside the city with soldiers, slaves, scoundrels, refugees and bandits.

Mu You knew about Ning Xi's combat power, so he did not refuse.

Ning Xi took Luo Yinhuang and some of Ning Qi's Eighteen Guards into the city with the man.

After entering the city, the purpose of entering the city is the houses with different heights, but it gives people a tattered feeling. Either someone smashed the door, or was directly pushed over the wall or was smashed with large holes in the wall.

There were only a few sparse people on the street, all of them had a kind of numbness on their faces, and when they saw Ning Xi and others, they showed a curious and inquiring look.

There are also soldiers patrolling with weapons in the city, but they all look yellow and skinny. If they encounter a robust rogue, these people are afraid that they will not be able to resist for long.

The shops on both sides were all closed, and many of the doors of the shops were either damaged or wide open, and the inside was basically emptied, apparently being severely looted.

This can no longer be described as depression, and it has completely gone to the level of depression.

"When did the situation in the city start?" Ning Xi broke the calm.

When the man saw Ningxi's eyes dignified on the ruined shop, he realized what he asked, "These years, the soldiers of the two countries who have been pretending to be rogues have become more and more arrogant in their looting. The leaders colluded together, and they even joined forces to attack Xia City half a month ago, and then they burned, killed and looted."

"Most of the guards in the city are also dead, and many families in and outside the city have also moved away from Xia City, and no one dares to do business in the city." He said with a sigh.

Ning Xi frowned, "Does the city owner care?"

"Why don't you care? If it wasn't for the city lord to lead someone to protect him to the death, all the people in this city would have been killed long ago." The man heard Ning Xi questioning the city lord, and felt a little unhappy.
