I wonder whether this sentence is correct…^_^
Wait for me under a big tree away from the west of the town 20 li.
I want to express 在城西二十里的大树下等我. But I can't figure out how to express 城西二十里in this sentence.
Thanks for your help in advance.^_^

Hi, Jerome, thanks for your answer. I think here the tree is not in the town. It's outside of the town.^_^

Is the tree at the same place where the city is located?
