Chapter 342: If you want to succeed, you must show off first
After all, the Great Elder is the second most important person in Southern Xinjiang, so he is not so credulous.
She asked suspiciously:
"How do you prove that you are gods?"
As soon as Gu Xi stretched out his hand, the plane disappeared. When he stretched out his hand again, there was a bottle of antipyretic medicine in his hand.
She looked at the elder with a smile and said:
"This elixir can reduce the fever of a mortal within an hour. Would you like to have someone try it, Great Elder?"
Everyone was surprised to see such a big silver bird suddenly disappear out of thin air.
More people believed that the two of them were gods, and that the flying bird just now was their mounts. They just didn’t know what magic the fairy used to make the bird suddenly disappear.
The Great Elder couldn't help but believe it a little.
She didn't believe that pie would fall from the sky, but the situation in southern Xinjiang was very difficult right now. Could it be that God couldn't bear to see the people suffer and came down to earth to rescue them?
"Go and bring over two servants with high fever." the Great Elder ordered.
A young servant in the Holy Maiden's Palace fell ill.
She cannot take the lives of the people as a joke, but she cannot miss any possible opportunities either.
Soon, two teenage servants were brought in, a boy and a girl.
Gu Xi gave each of them a small sip of antipyretic medicine.
Another person fed the patient an antiviral liquid, which was more convenient as there was no need to boil water.
In order to enhance the efficacy of the medicine, she used her internal energy to guide the medicinal power throughout her body.
As the internal energy flowed, the two patients felt a warm breath surging in their bodies. Soon they both broke out in sweat, but their expressions gradually became clear and their complexions gradually returned to normal.
The Great Elder personally touched the foreheads of the two men, and indeed the high fever had subsided.
The two servants, who were originally too sick to get out of bed, now climbed up from the stretcher.
The great elder asked:
"How do you feel now?"
The maid said:
"I feel relaxed, but I'm very hungry and want to eat."
The male servant also nodded:
"Me too, I think my illness is healed."
The Great Elder was so excited that he immediately knelt down towards Gu Xi:
"Thank you, fairy, for the medicine!"
Then he raised his head again and looked at the half bottle of medicine left in her hand with a burning gaze.
"I wonder how much of this medicine the fairy has left? We, we are willing to pay for it."
The Great Elder didn't feel very confident. Southern Xinjiang is very poor now, so this elixir should be very expensive, right?
Gu Xi didn't let her get up, and said in a fairy-like manner:
"Since I'm here to help Southern Xinjiang, I know that Southern Xinjiang is in a difficult situation right now. This medicine is free, I have as much as you want."
After saying that, she waved her hand, and a mountain of boxes appeared on the open space in front of her.
"Great Elder, please invite some doctors. I will tell them how to use the medicine. The epidemic in southern Xinjiang will be resolved soon."
The great elder nodded repeatedly and ordered someone to call a doctor.
Gu Xi looked at her pious eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
If you want to accomplish something, you must first learn to pretend.
If she didn't dress up as a fairy and want to gain their trust, it would be a lot of trouble.
It seems that my acting skills have improved, hehe.
When the doctors arrived, Gu Xi explained the medication methods to them.
Since the other party is a god, the doctors will not have any objections and will just dispense the medicine as requested.
After finishing the work, the great elder cordially invited:
"Fairy, please enter the Saint's Palace."
The two of them didn't hesitate and followed the great elder in.
If you come in as a Han Chinese, you may have to fight, but if you come in as an immortal, you will be a distinguished guest in southern Xinjiang.
Entering the meeting room, Gu Xi asked directly:
"Great Elder, where is the Saint?"
The Great Elder's face froze.
The saint has already set out for the Central Plains and should have arrived by now.
They were planning to invade Fengyi Country. They were not in the right in this matter. If the immortal knew about this, would he be unhappy?
"The Saint has gone on a long journey." The Great Elder said embarrassedly.
Seeing that her expression was strange, Gu Xi used his mind reading skill.
The Great Elder’s Voice:
"What should I do? Should I tell the fairy the truth? No, what if the fairy blames me and takes back the elixir? Or should I delay for a while and wait until the epidemic in southern Xinjiang is over?"
Gu Xi frowned and said:
"I wonder where the Saint has gone? I have something important to discuss with you."
The elder said awkwardly:
"This - Fairy, if you have any important matters, you can tell me first. Now the affairs of Southern Xinjiang are under my care."
In his mind, he said, "I don't know where the Saint is now. If I send people to look for her now, can we find her? If there are immortals in the South Border to help us, we won't have to join forces with the North Yan..."
Gu Xi said with a cold face:
"Why? Can't you tell me where the Saint is going?"
The elder was so frightened that he knelt down and bowed:
"Fairy, please forgive me. The Saint...she went to the Central Plains."
"There are constant disasters in Southern Xinjiang now. Why does she run off to the Central Plains instead of guarding it well?" Gu Xi asked knowingly.
The great elder said tremblingly:
"Southern Xinjiang is very poor now, and the Saint wants to go to the Central Plains to borrow some food."
Gu Xi said coldly:
"Borrow? In my opinion, you want to rob?"
The elder, whose heart was touched, buried his head even lower.
"Fairy, spare me! Southern Xinjiang is too difficult, and the Saint has no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."
Gu Xi said in a cold tone:
"When Southern Xinjiang is in trouble, you invade neighboring countries. How is this different from robbery? Kui Benxian even made a special trip to help Southern Xinjiang overcome its difficulties. Aren't you afraid of being punished by heaven for doing this?"
The elder turned pale and fell to the ground, weeping bitterly:
"Please ask the fairy to give Nanjiang a chance to survive. I will immediately send people to find the saint!"
Gu Xi didn't say anything.
The Great Elder became even more terrified.
In the past, they would pray to gods, but they had never seen gods with their own eyes.
Now, a living fairy appeared before her eyes. She could come to the rescue of Nanjiang when it was in trouble. Wouldn’t she destroy Nanjiang because of its evil thoughts?
It is said that there is a god above your head, and the elder believed it.
After a moment of silence, Gu Xi felt that he had put enough pressure on her, and then he said:
"Tell me where the Saint is, and I'll go find her. I hope she hasn't made a big mistake yet."
The Great Elder said with a bitter look on his face:
"Fairy, when the Saint left, she arranged for the Second Elder and the Fourth Elder to split into two groups and head to Shuzhou and Guizhou. The Saint did not go with the army. She only said that she would act according to circumstances. I don't know where she is now."
Chu Zhao was surprised:
"How many troops are there in Nanjiang? Can they be divided into two groups?"
As far as he knew, there were very few troops in southern Xinjiang, and they relied entirely on natural barriers to resist foreign enemies.
Is the information wrong?
The Great Elder looked up at Chu Zhao and said ashamedly:
"Reporting to the Immortal Companion, the total force of Southern Border is 10,000, and the Second Elder and the Fourth Elder each took away 3,000."
"Three thousand soldiers to attack a state capital? Are you sure you are not going to die?"
Chu Zhao was even more surprised.
Although Shuzhou and Guizhou have few troops, as border prefectures, each prefecture has 20,000 troops.
If they want to take it down with only 3,000 soldiers, they must have super powers like Axi.
