Chapter 983: Good Luck
Xiao Qi saw a scene that made his eyes widen.
As soon as the talisman was thrown into the water, it melted instantly, so fast that he almost doubted whether the talisman was really thrown in.
He even looked down at the ground. Could it be that it had floated to the ground?
Because now the bowl of water is still transparent and colorless.
But that is yellow paper, and the runes are red.
How come there is no color at all when it melts in water?
He brought the bowl of water closer and put his nose close to it to sniff it carefully.
Well, not only is it colorless, it’s also odorless.
"so cold......"
Xiao Qi looked at Wang Xiaofu, who was shivering and not quite conscious, gritted his teeth, and helped him up.
"Brother, I don't mean to harm you with this. Prince Jin knows about this, right? He ordered you to drink it. Also, the military advisor also said to follow orders."
"So, drink this bowl of water."
Now that the water was no longer hot, Xiao Qi made up his mind and fed Wang Xiaofu the whole bowl of water without leaving a drop.
Wang Xiaofu didn't know whether he was really thirsty or because he thought the water was sweet, but he actually swallowed it all without spitting it out.
Xiao Qi asked him to lie back down and turned around to put the bowl down.
"It shouldn't be hard to drink if you drink it so quickly?" he said to himself.
I should have tried it earlier.
Xiao Qi turned around and met Wang Xiaofu's wide eyes——
"Be good!"
He was shocked. "Is it so effective?"
Is this really the effect of the talisman?
Just now, Wang Xiaofu had his eyes closed and was in a daze. He could only say that he was cold and was not fully awake.
Are your eyes so wide now?
"Wang Xiaofu?" he called out tentatively.
Could it be a last gasp?
Wang Xiaofu turned his eyes, saw him, and reached out to push the quilt away.
"Xiao, Brother Xiao Qi, I feel so heavy," Wang Xiaofu said, although his voice was weak, it sounded like there was nothing wrong with his speech. "Why did you cover me with so many blankets?"
It was so heavy that he could hardly breathe.
"Are you really awake?"
Xiao Qi quickly helped him move a few quilts away.
Wang Xiaofu's face is obviously not as pale as before! Oh my god, is it really that magical?
Xiao Qi glanced at the empty bowl.
What kind of talisman is that?
"Brother Xiao Qi, I thought I was dead. Did you save me?"
Wang Xiaofu struggled to sit up.
"Can you sit up?" Xiao Qi quickly supported him again, "Can you get out of bed? The military advisor is looking for you!"
Did the military advisor already believe in Miss Lu's talisman? Did he know that Wang Xiaofu would be cured if he drank the talisman water?
"Help me go see the military advisor quickly. The people in Dagui Village are going crazy!" Wang Xiaofu became anxious.
He needs to tell the military advisor about this as soon as possible.
In the meeting room, the military advisor happened to be talking about the Dagui Village incident.
In fact, Master Qiu had already told Zhou Shiyue and the others, but the military advisor had been in the camp all the time and knew more than Master Qiu.
There was nothing happening in Dagui Village before.
Even if the villagers had some opinions about the ownership of the mountain, they would not speak out. After all, it was twenty years ago that the mountain was given to the Subei Camp, and everyone has accepted this fact.
Although there are inevitably a few villagers who feel that the village has suffered a loss because of this incident and have come to the soldiers for help when there are problems over the years, the soldiers have no objections.
Dagui Village is the village closest to their camp. If they get along better, it will save trouble for everyone.
The reason why Dagui Village suddenly started talking about the mountain again was that a family returned to their village.
The grandfather of that family was one of the old men who promised to give the mountain to the camp twenty years ago.
Not long after, their family was taken in by their youngest son, who was said to be doing very well in Zhilin City.
The villagers all thought that the family had gone to enjoy themselves and would probably never return to the village.
But a year ago, the family suddenly moved back to Dagui Village.
Their grandfather has passed away.
The one who moved back with his family was the eldest son.
"This man is called Jatan. He brought back quite a few family members, including three brothers, a widowed younger sister, their children, and a few servants, totaling 20 to 30 people."
The military advisor talked to Zhou Shiyue about the Jia family.
"When they returned to the village, they immediately became the largest family in the village, and their family conditions were also the best. According to the words of their villagers, it was definitely a glorious return home."
Zhou Shiyue nodded and said, "Twenty or thirty people are indeed a wealthy family in the village."
"I've been to Zhilin City," Lu Song said, "Zhilin City is quite prosperous."
Zhou Shiyue has also been there.
Zhilin City was indeed very wealthy. There were many wealthy families there. Walking on the streets, people were all dressed in fine clothes, and the shops along the streets were also very busy.
To be able to do well in Zhilin City, he must have made a lot of money.
Moreover, Zhilin City has everything and the environment is good. After living in Zhilin City for a long time, can you adapt to the village here?
It is a bit strange that the younger generation moved back to the village with their family now that the elders have passed away.
After all, for the younger generation in the family, staying in Zhilin City is definitely better than returning to a village like this.
"Because the Jia family is so large, the old house can no longer accommodate them, but there is no extra suitable land in the village."
The military advisor continued, "The Jia family saw the foot of the mountain next to the village, and they wanted to build a new house at the foot of the mountain."
"Because you want to build a new house, you want to take the mountain back?" Zhou Shiyue understood.
"But the general promised half a year ago to give them a piece of land and let them just build a house."
Since the Jia family has agreed to let them build a house there, why doesn’t they agree?
"The Jia family didn't say they were dissatisfied with the arrangement. They just incited the villagers, saying that there was a mountain god on that mountain who was protecting their Dagui Village. Losing the mountain would be like abandoning the guardian god of their village."
The military advisor shook his head and sighed, "Then some strange things happened in the village, and several older people died one after another. The Jia family deliberately linked these things to the mountain god, and now the villagers believe it without a doubt."
“They firmly believe that if they don’t take the mountain back, more bad things will happen to their village next.”
This is the reason why Dagui Village and their camp were in such a mess.
The villagers are naturally afraid of death.
"And they believed what the Jia family said because they were so rich that they moved their whole family back here. If it wasn't for the good things that would happen if they stayed in the village, who would do that?"
After hearing this, Lu Zhaoling asked, "They said, will there be any good things happening in the village next?"
The military advisor nodded, he felt that Lu Zhaoling had hit the nail on the head.
"Yes, they say that the village will be blessed with good fortune, which will bless every villager. But the villagers are unwilling to say what it is."
"So they don't allow outsiders to enter the village now?" Lu Zhaoling asked again.
"Yes, you are not allowed in."
