Chapter 341 Holy Maiden Temple
Chapter 341 Holy Maiden Temple
Southern Xinjiang.
The Pilgrimage City is the capital of southern Xinjiang.
Gu Xi and Chu Zhao looked down from the plane and saw that it was as big as a county town.
There is a red and yellow building in the north of the city, which is obviously different from other houses. The two guessed that it was the Holy Maiden Hall.
The two men landed the plane in an uninhabited area in the north of the city.
In order to avoid attracting attention, Gu Xi hid himself and pulled Chu Zhao into the city.
The palace-level invisibility technique has no time limit. The two strolled on the street for a while. The people in the Pilgrimage City still live much better than those in the villages.
At least not everyone is so pale and thin.
The two held hands and came to the door of the Holy Maiden Temple. The ancient door was carved with strange patterns and looked very mysterious.
The two stood at the door. Not long after, the door opened and a woman in her forties walked out.
Gu Xi had inquired from the village elder and learned that the current saint ascended the throne at the age of sixteen and was twenty-one years old this year.
Then this is not a saint.
The two of them walked in without being noticed by anyone.
It’s better to find the saint first and then reveal your identity.
Most of the servants in the Holy Maiden Temple are women, but there are also a few men who sweep the courtyard.
The two walked towards the most luxurious hall in the middle.
There was a woman in her fifties sitting inside, instructing two young women.
"Send some of the grain in the warehouse to Nagu Village. Their village has been severely hit by the disaster, and almost all of the villagers' grain has been washed away by mud and rocks."
One of the young women said:
"But Great Elder, there is not much food left in the treasury. I am afraid it will not last long."
It turns out that this woman is the great elder of Southern Xinjiang, so what about their saint?
The great elder said:
"Alas, this is the only thing we can do now. When the Saint comes back, we may have a chance to survive."
So, the Saint is not here.
The two young women took the order and went out. The great elder frowned, then spread out his palm, and a snow-white poisonous insect appeared in his palm.
The most noble color of Gu worms is golden yellow, followed by white.
The white Gu seemed very uneasy, making anxious chirping sounds towards the door.
The Great Elder looked at the door and saw no one there.
"There's no one here, why are you shouting?"
Gu Xi and Chu Zhao looked at each other and felt it was magical.
They were both invisible and no one could see them, but the insect could sense it.
Gu Xi pulled Chu Zhao to the side. Bai Gu turned his head and continued to chirp at them.
The little guy is quite sensitive!
The Great Elder looked in Gu Xi's direction again.
"There's no one here, why are you yelling?"
The two of them walked lightly towards the Great Elder. Gu Xi looked at Bai Gu, who was quite pretty.
Suddenly, Bai Gu flew up and rushed towards Gu Xi.
Gu Xi dodged instinctively and the white Gu flew over.
Having hit nothing, Bai Gu became even angrier and chirped even louder.
The great elder took out a small box and chanted a spell, and the white Gu flew back and entered the box, but it still chirped in the direction of Gu Xi.
"Stop making noise! Are you crazy today? Still making noise? I'm going to lock you up!"
The great elder scolded with a sullen face, and poor Xiaobai felt aggrieved and dared not say a word.
It turns out that raising a poisonous insect is like raising a pet.
The Great Elder started to deal with affairs again. Gu Xi wanted to find out the whereabouts of the Saint, so he used mind reading on the Great Elder, squatted opposite her, and listened to her thoughts.
After listening for a few minutes, I couldn't help but sigh that the great elder of Southern Xinjiang is really dedicated and patriotic, not much worse than Zhou Qing.
But there was no word from the saint about her whereabouts.
Just when Gu Xi was struggling over whether to show up, he suddenly saw the forty-something woman he had just met at the gate hurried in. She was the third elder of the Holy Maiden Hall.
"Great Elder, the epidemic in the Pilgrimage City has become more serious. Ten thousand children have been infected. There are also many sick children from surrounding villages rushing to the Pilgrimage City. All the doctors have gone to treat the children, but the effect is minimal."
The great elder frowned.
"Third Elder, take some people to build some tents to accommodate the patients coming from the surrounding villages. I will write a few notices and offer a large reward for a good doctor. Not only in the Pilgrimage City, but also in other surrounding towns."
The third elder went out to work, and the first elder muttered to himself while writing the notice:
"Could it be that God wants to destroy our Southern Border?"
Their ancestors have lived here for more than a thousand years. Southern Xinjiang is a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. Although people's lives are not rich, at least they can have enough food and warm clothing.
Unexpectedly, with various disasters happening so frequently nowadays, the population of southern Xinjiang peaked at over one million people, but has now dropped sharply to 600,000.
But the heavens seemed unwilling to spare them. This plague mainly affected children under the age of 20. Without children, there would be no hope. Does southern Xinjiang still have a future?
Gu Xi pulled Chu Zhao out of the Holy Maiden Palace. Saving lives is like putting out a fire. Instead of using tricks to interrogate the Great Elder, it is better to help Southern Xinjiang solve this plague crisis.
One reason is to save people. People from Southern Xinjiang will also be citizens of Fengyi Kingdom in the future.
Secondly, maybe he could, like the village chief, subdue the saint and the elders and make them voluntarily submit to Fengyi Kingdom.
If you do good things, you must leave your name behind, and if you do good things, you must have a purpose.
The two returned to the outskirts of the city.
In order to gain the trust of the Great Elder as soon as possible, the two decided to continue pretending to be gods.
After all, people in southern Xinjiang have an inexplicable hostility towards the Han people.
The two of them specially changed into fairy-like dresses and flew the plane low over the pilgrimage city, quickly attracting the attention of the entire city.
"Look! There's a big bird!"
"This bird makes a weird sound, buzzing!"
……
Many people looked at the sky and pointed.
In the Holy Maiden Palace, servants also hurried into the meeting room to report.
"Great Elder! In the sky, a big bird appeared in the sky!"
"It's just a big bird, what's the big deal? It's not worth your panic!" the elder scolded.
"Oh, it's really a strange big bird. Please go out and take a look!" the servant said anxiously.
The Great Elder saw that she looked unusual, so he stood up and walked out.
The moment he saw the big bird, the Great Elder was also stunned.
She had never seen such a big bird before.
The big bird flew lower and lower, and finally landed on the open space outside the Holy Maiden Temple.
The Great Elder and everyone from the Holy Maiden Hall walked out together.
The guard drew his knife and took a defensive stance.
Then I saw two people coming out of the big bird's belly.
A man and a woman, both dressed in white, the man is handsome and the woman is pretty.
"Who are you?"
The Great Elder asked doubtfully.
The guards held knives and closely protected the great elder.
Gu Xi smiled warmly and imitated the tone of Guanyin Bodhisattva in Journey to the West and said slowly:
"We are gods who have come down to earth. We learned that Southern Xinjiang is in trouble, so we came to help."
The people watching included not only people from the Holy Maiden Palace, but also some ordinary people. Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
Some were excited, some were confused, and some people bowed their heads in worship.
