While everyone in the mule cart was asleep, Niu Caohua gently turned over.
Take out what Niu Xiaobai brought to her when she came back.
A fruit, the size of a longan, bright red, warm in the hand.
There seems to be a ball of red liquid flowing inside the fruit.
This fruit had never been seen before, but when I thought about the roar coming from the depths of the forest after they left, I knew that this fruit must be extraordinary.
After Niu Xiaobai came back, he handed the fruit to himself and fell into a deep sleep, unable to wake up no matter what.
But his body is warm, his breathing is normal, and he should not be injured.
This fruit cowgrass flower is not intended to be used now because it is not clear what the consequences will be after use.
Wait for Niu Xiaobai to wake up, ask him if he knows, and then decide whether to use it.
Thinking like this, Cowgrass Flower put the fruit away again, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

The night is like water.
The Wolf King stood on a low hillside, his silver hair shining brightly against the moonlight, shimmering with a faint light.
Behind it was the gray wolf that had been shot by the Cowgrass Flower, with the arrow still stuck in its body.
Because it was a blind shot, the arrow was not fatal, but only hindered the gray wolf's movement.
The gray wolf made a deep sound in his throat, as if he was reporting something to the wolf king.
The Wolf King listened quietly until the gray wolf's voice stopped, and then he let out a wolf roar toward the moon in the sky.

The rest of the journey went very smoothly, and the trading company soon reached its destination, Chengyang County in Qingzhou.
The destination of the trading company has arrived, but the destination of Cow Caohua has not.
She is going to Jinan County and Pingling County.
There is still a long way to go from Chengyang County.
After saying goodbye to the trading company and the reluctant Xue Changkong, Niu Caohua went to the tooth shop here to inquire about it.
I quickly found out that we need to travel by water to Jinan County, and it can be reached by boat in three days.
After booking a boat seat, Niu Caohua bought enough food for three days and went directly to the dock to wait.
Once on board, all you have to do is wait.
Niu Caohua slept in the room she had reserved. She took Niu Xiaobai out of her arms and placed her on the bed.
Niu Xiaobai has not woken up from that day to now.
But its breathing was still steady, and its little body was still warm.
This calmed Niu Caohua's anxious heart a lot.
At least Niu Xiaobai is still alive.
The big ship set off in the afternoon and was extremely smooth. Niu Caohua slept on the bed and felt nothing at all.
Three days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the ship arrived at Pingling County, Jinan County.
The first feeling when I got off the boat was that it was desolate.
Compared with Yangzhou, the population here is sparsely populated. The pier is full of guys carrying bags, and there are not many people doing business.
The people coming and going wore relatively simple clothes, including coarse linen and linen clothes.
People's faces are rarely filled with smiles, they are all filled with sorrow about life.
It seems that the people in Pingling County are not living a good life.
When queuing up to enter the city, Niu Caohua saw the old man in front of him handing the city guard two coins, and then he tremblingly pushed the wheelbarrow into the city.
When she arrived at Niucaohua, the city guard stopped her skillfully and stretched out his hand skillfully.
Niu Caohua took out two copper plates and handed them over.
The city guard nodded with satisfaction and let him go.
This place actually charges an entry fee, and it’s still two cents!
too expensive!
If you go to the city every day, you can't spend more than 730 yuan a year.
How can ordinary people earn so much money throughout the year!
Needless to say, the parent here is definitely a vampire.
The environment in the city is also messy, with garbage scattered everywhere. There are many ragged people rummaging around the garbage.
Niu Caohua frowned and quickly left here.
After searching for a long time, I finally found a relatively clean street, which was also very quiet.
Finally, when I walked in and took a look, well, no wonder it was so quiet. It turned out that this was Hualou Street.
One street is full of various large and small flower houses.
All are closed during the day and will open for business as soon as it gets dark.
Just outrageous.
Such a street is actually full of flower buildings, and there is not even a food stall.
Niu Caohua had no choice but to turn around and go to the next street.
After wandering around for a long time, I finally found a relatively clean inn under the guidance of a little boy.
Niu Caohua walked into the inn.
"Hello, are you staying in a hotel?" The person who received her was an old woman, thin and wrinkled, holding a rag in her hand.
She was wearing a particularly fancy apron, which was embroidered with patterns of various colors, but it was a pity that Niu Caohua couldn't understand what was embroidered on it.
"Hello, mother-in-law, I'm staying at the hotel." Niu Caohua nodded, looked around, and was quite satisfied with the environment inside.
There were several tables and chairs in the lobby of the inn, and only a young man was sitting on them, engrossed in eating.
Smelling the aroma of rice, Cowgrass Flower also felt hungry.
"Is there anything to eat?" she asked the old woman.
"Yes, we have mutton and fresh river shrimp today. Would you like some, sir?" The old woman quickly recommended the dishes.
"Okay, let's have some. By the way, is there any chicken?" Thinking of Niu Xiaobai who opened his eyes and fell asleep last night, Niu Caohua felt that it was necessary to order some too, so as not to wake up hungry.
"Yes, yes, how many guests are there?" Seeing that she had ordered so many dishes, the old woman thought he had companions.
"I'm alone. Help me pack up the chicken when it's ready. We'll eat the rest here." After saying that, Niu Caohua found a place to sit down and waited for the meal quietly.
The food is very fragrant, fresh ingredients, no need for complicated seasoning, simple, yet delicious.
After eating, Niu Caohua carried the packed chicken into the room.
Niu Xiaobai woke up at night. I don’t know if he was awakened by the smell of chicken. Anyway, the first thing he did when he woke up was to drool over the chicken on the table. He pounced on it and devoured it, even the chicken bones. Didn't stay.
After eating the chicken, I drank some water and finally burped with satisfaction.
"It's cool!" A childish voice sounded in the room.
Niu Caohua looked at Niu Xiaobai in disbelief, couldn't that be the voice just now?
"What are you looking at? Don't you recognize me?" Niu Xiaobai opened and closed his mouth, speaking clearly.
"Xiao, Xiaobai, are you talking?" Niu Caohua was stunned.
"It's not who I am, I've wanted to talk for a long time. Fortunately, I went out with my sister this time, and then I met such a good thing, hehehe~" Niu Xiaobai also laughed obscenely.
"You can speak after eating this?" Niu Caohua took out the red fruit in the bag.
"Yes, this is good stuff. Sister, please eat it quickly." Niu Xiaobai nodded, gently walked over to Niu Caohua, and pushed it with his little paws.
"What is this? You can talk after eating it." Niucaohua was very curious about this fruit.
"I don't know. Anyway, it's a good thing. It's good for your health. One for me and one for my sister."
Niu Caohua believed Niu Xiaobai's words, but she had no intention of eating it now.
Xiaobai ate this and fell asleep for several days. If he ate it, he would probably fall asleep as well.
I'm out to do errands now, time is tight, I'll try to eat it when I get home.
