"Whoosh!"
A piece of paper, so white it seemed to glow, floated out of the treasure bowl.
The paper is so white.
It was even whiter than the cloth and silk she used.
Written on the white paper in extremely standard ancient script:
"Greetings, Princess Da Gan. I am Chu Xiao. I have seen your request."
"Based on the gold and silver treasures you previously offered, I can provide you with food and water in proportion."
"Also, besides food and water, what is the most scarce resource at the border?"
The deity's calligraphy was sharp and powerful, surpassing even the works of any literary master in the Great Han Dynasty.
She read the words carefully, her hands trembling with excitement.
As my grandfather had said, she was the only one among the nine kingdoms who was the chosen goddess and could communicate with the gods!
The gods not only replied to her letter, but also asked her what she lacked most right now!
The gods have agreed to help!
If she is sincere enough and offers more treasures, the gods will bestow more gifts upon her!
Suddenly, the confusion and helplessness she had felt earlier vanished, and tears she had suppressed for so long began to fall in a steady stream.
The hundreds of thousands of people in Liangcheng are saved!
She placed the letter on the table and wrote a reply with a brush: "Thank you for your divine favor. The border is currently in dire need of food, water, and medicine."
"Moreover, winter will arrive in two months, and the people will be in great need of warm clothing. I wonder if the gods could grant them?"
Food and water were the people's hope for survival.
But the soldiers needed to guard the city and patrol at night, and without warm clothes, their bodies would definitely not be able to withstand it.
She wanted the people to live, and even more so, she wanted the Huo family army to live!
Just then, I saw boxes of instant noodles raining down from the treasure bowl.
She recognized the box; it was the one that contained several bags of noodles last time.
This time, however, the box was sealed tightly and looked very heavy.
Before she could even laugh out loud, bags and bags of flour and rice started falling down.
There were fifty bags of flour.
More than a hundred bags of rice!
Overjoyed, she was incoherent and immediately called out to the door, "Wan'er, Wan'er, come in quickly!"
Chen Wan'er was sleeping on the wooden couch in the outer hall when she heard the princess's shout. She suddenly stood up and rushed into the inner hall.
"What's wrong, Princess?"
"Wan'er, look! The gods have given us so much food!"
Chen Wan'er was still asleep when she saw the grain all over the ground, and she was completely stunned.
She slapped herself twice hard, and after confirming that she wasn't dreaming, she knelt on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably.
"Princess, there's so much flour and rice, plus salted vegetables and noodles!"
"Thank you, God, for saving the Huo family army from danger! Thank you, Princess, for being able to invoke the gods!"
Qin Yue Zhao pulled her up from the ground and urged, "Stop kowtowing. The gods said they'd send us water. Hurry up and get the deputy generals to clean up the mansion's pool!"
"Also, see what other valuables the princess's residence has, and offer them all to the gods!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Not long after, Chen Wan'er and another lieutenant carried over a treasure chest containing gold ingots, antique porcelain bottles, gold wine vessels, and more.
Without thinking, Qin Zhaoyue grabbed the items and threw them into the treasure basin.
Chu Xiao was not home and did not know that Qin Yuezhao had sent him something again. He had just arrived at the company when he saw several men beating Lin Dong from afar.
Without saying a word, Chu Xiao threw his electric scooter to the side of the road and kicked the bald man who was in the lead.
Caught off guard, the man was kicked to the ground.
Still not satisfied, Chu Xiao punched the others in the face several more times.
By the time the others reacted, he had already shielded Lin Dong behind him, holding his helmet and roaring, "Come on, if you dare to come, I'll kill you all!"
