This county can be said to be a very remote place, belonging to the region "where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away," but here the mountains are green, the waters clear, and the land fertile. There are natural disasters every year, but compared to other places, they are fewer and less severe.
However, now bandits run rampant, and a good number of refugees and even criminals from other places have poured in, causing great panic among the people of the county.
Gao Jiaxing often brought back news from outside, just like now he said, "Last night, there was a fight at the black market."
Xia Xiao looked at Gao Jiaxing with some concern, "Brother Gao, don't get involved in those things; it's better to focus on studying."
Xia Xiao still hoped Gao Jiaxing would take the right path, to make good use of this time to study hard and advance in his education. Even if he couldn't get into university now, he could still make it when the college entrance examination was restored.
