Coming to this strange place in the Western Region, Sheng Xichen was just a pure ordinary person.

He used his mobile phone to book a hotel online for his and Shi Xiyue's convenience.

A five-star hotel with good treatment and facilities.

The temperature in the Western Region is far different from that in Hama City, with temperatures as low as several degrees below zero, and there is also heavy snowfall.

Sheng Xichen and Shi Xiyue didn't bring many items here. He gave the hotel attendant some tips and asked him to buy two sets of thick winter clothes for them.

After putting on his coat, Sheng Xichen took Shi Xiyue out of the hotel and walked around the streets of the Western Region.

The country in the Western Region is not rich, and it is difficult to see a ten-story building around. And it looks like the small house is also old.

Almost all pedestrians on the street, both men and women, use different headscarves to cover their faces. Their appearance is completely invisible except to the eyes.

In order to cover up others' eyes, Sheng Xichen and Shi Xiyue also bought a headscarf and wrapped it around their head and face like the people here.

"Xen Chen, I'm a little hungry. How about we just eat something here."

Shi Xiyue smelled the scent of mutton over there, and pulled Sheng Xinchen over there.

"It's mutton soup noodles. Do you want to eat it?" Sheng Jichen asked Shi Xiyue.

"Yeah, sure."

The shop is not big, but there are many people eating there.

Not long after Shi Xiyue and the others sat down, two men came to the door. One of the men was holding a rope in his hand, and a woman's hands were tied behind the rope.

The woman's body was swaying and she looked quite tired.

"Go faster." The man pulled the rope hard, and the woman staggered to the ground on the spot. "Why are you pretending to be dead? Get up quickly."

The man took out a whip from his waist and struck the woman hard.

The woman didn't struggle, she just got up from the ground with difficulty.

"Boss, let's have two bowls of mutton noodles. The kind with mutton, a big bowl."

The man who was not holding the woman signaled loudly to the boss.

"OK, just a second."

The woman was sitting on her knees on the ground, her hands tied tightly, making a bowing gesture.

She looked around fearfully, and finally her eyes rested on Sheng Xichen and Shi Xiyue.

Shi Xiyue has always paid attention to the situation there, but this is the Western Region, not Binshi. She didn't dare to step forward and intervene casually.

"What are you looking at? Are you looking for a whip?" The man saw that the woman seemed not to be honest, so he raised the long whip in his hand and beat her again.

"Woo..." The woman whimpered in pain, but she couldn't scream loudly.

She lay on the ground moaning in pain, her outer clothes were torn by the whip, and there were obvious blood stains on her clothes.

Shi Xiyue stared indifferently at the two men enjoying the mutton noodles, and inadvertently clenched her hands tightly into fists on the dining table.

"Yueyue." Sheng Xichen raised his hand and covered Shi Xiyue's fist, telling her not to act rashly with his eyes.

There are so many poor people in the world, and no matter how glorious their lives are, they can't escape the fate of being framed everywhere.

They came to the Western Regions not to stand up for anyone or to complain about injustice. But looking for the whereabouts of Yi Xue.

"You two, your noodles are ready. Please use them slowly." The waiter delivered the noodles to the table where Sheng Xinchen and the others were sitting.

Sheng Xichen handed the chopsticks to Shi Xiyue. After she took them, she put down the headscarf that covered her face.

People from the Western Regions and people from China still look a bit strange. It's easy to tell with the naked eye.

Although Shi Xiyue and Sheng Xichen didn't say anything while eating, they still attracted the attention of people in the noodle shop.

People from foreign countries often go to other countries and are regarded as foreigners and may even be discriminated against.

"Have you eaten enough? Leave after eating." The man who was not holding the rope asked his companion.

"Ah."

The man agreed, then stood up, carrying the mutton noodle bowl he had eaten, and approached the woman who was kneeling on the ground.

He lifted up the scarf from the woman's chin, then forced the remaining mutton noodle soup in the bowl into the woman's mouth.

The woman wanted to resist, but her hair kept being pulled by the man and she couldn't get it out no matter how hard she struggled. In addition, I was really hungry, so I stopped resisting and drank the noodle soup.

"Okay, let's go." The man put the bowl in his hand back on the table, took the rope, and forcibly grabbed the woman on the ground.

When his companion stood up, he subconsciously glanced at Sheng Xichen and Shi Xiyue on the table over there.

Sheng Xichen stretched out his hand and directly covered Shi Xiyue's hand, while he turned his face to the other side.

The two men left the noodle shop with the woman, and Sheng Xichen took away his hand covering Shi Xiyue's face.

She looked around at the guests, who seemed to be accustomed to this kind of thing. No one had a strange expression, but they were just curious about the two foreigners.

"Let's go too." Sheng Xichen took out some change belonging to the Western Regions from his pocket and put it on the table.

Shi Xiyue held Sheng Xichen's arm and covered her face with a scarf.

When Shi Xiyue walked out of the noodle shop, she thought of something. She returned to the noodle shop alone, pulled the shop owner inside and asked: "Boss, do you know where 'Sha Shui Bay' is?"

The shop owner looked up at Shi Xiyue. No matter how tightly she covered her face with a scarf, it could not hide her impure Western Mandarin.

Yi Xue had never told Shi Xiyue and the others about her life in the Western Regions. However, Shi Xiyue accidentally heard the place name 'Shashui Bay' from Nu Min's mouth.

"Are you from foreign countries? I would like to advise you not to mention that place, let alone go there.

Wherever you came from, go back to where you came from. "

While the boss was talking, he was busy cooking noodles in the pot.

Shi Xiyue didn't ask any more questions. Seeing the boss's expression, he seemed to be resisting that place.

"What did you tell the boss?" Sheng Xichen saw Shi Xiyue coming out and held her hand thoughtfully.

The wind and snow outside were a bit heavy, and she felt a little cold, so she subconsciously snuggled into Sheng Xinchen's arms.

"I asked where Sha Shuiwan was, but the boss refused to tell me and told us to go home quickly." Shi Xiyue held Sheng Xichen's hand tightly, feeling cold in her heart. "Xen Chen, do you think the people here are weird?

The situation just now seemed like nothing strange to these people. Everyone was indifferent and pretended not to see anything? "

"Well, there's no rush, we can take our time. If they don't tell us, we can look for it ourselves."
