Chapter 153 The Goddess Descends
Lu Wanyin had heard many words expressing loyalty.
If it weren't for the man in front of her giving the woman soup, she wouldn't have believed such a casual oath.
The woman next to her was frightened.
"Brother Xiangwen."
He was unconscious and covered in wounds just a moment ago.
Is this a last gasp?
Lu Wanyin smiled faintly and said, "You don't have to go through fire and water. I just appreciate people who are loyal and righteous. Xuan Qi, give this girl a bowl of soup."
The man stood in front of Lu Wanyin politely: "My name is Zhan Xiangwen, and this is my fiancée, Gu Churou."
Lu Wanyin thought carefully about these two names.
Never heard of it.
Someone gently pulled her sleeve. Lu Wanyin turned her head and saw Xie Jingci nodding at her almost imperceptibly.
Lu Wanyin didn't ask any more questions.
Xie Jingci should know the backgrounds of these two people. When the time is right, he can just ask him directly.
Zhan Xiangwen is a capable man who can secretly hide food under the noses of the bailiffs.
The expressions of the two of them were completely different from those of the Xie family members.
The two sentences he just said were neither humble nor arrogant, and he did not consider himself a criminal at all.
Maybe he will be useful in the future.
After the meal, several guards went to clean up the mess.
Xie Jingci gave Lu Wanyin a look and said, "Looking at the situation, even if there are villages and towns nearby, the situation is not optimistic. Madam, you should go and take a look."
Seeing the worry in Xie Jingci's eyes, Lu Wanyin sighed.
Even though he was imprisoned, he still cared about the people of Dasheng.
And the one in the palace?
I'm afraid he will curse more. These suffering people must be annoying to him.
If you think about it carefully, she has emptied the national treasury, and these people will definitely not be able to wait for money to relieve the disaster.
I really have to go there.
Lu Wanyin nodded and said, "If you want to go, I'll go with you. This earthquake has been so frequent, big and small, you can't handle it all by yourself."
She has spiritual spring water, maybe she can save a lot of people.
If you want to rebel, you must not forget to win the hearts of the people.
Hou Yuanji was almost suffocated by the smoke. He had just had a sip of hot soup when he heard them discussing going out for a walk.
He is numb.
Okay, okay, if you want to leave, just leave. He can't do anything about it.
"etc!"
Zhan Xiangwen was checking his injuries. Upon hearing this, he quickly came over and said, "General, Madam, I'll go with you."
Xuan Yi was not very happy: "Why are you interfering? Xuan Qi will open the mountain and break the stone palm. He didn't even say he wanted to go."
He couldn't even get the chance to do big things with his master and mistress.
Why is it your turn to join in the fun?
Xuan Qi's eyes twitched.
This matter is unresolved.
Zhan Xiangwen was anxious: "General, Madam General, my family is in the rice business in the Central Plains. Disaster relief is no small matter. If possible, I can find out more about the situation and send a message to have food delivered."
Lu Wanyin became interested: "How much food can your family transport?"
Zhan Xiangwen thought seriously for a moment and lowered his voice: "We need to see the extent of the disaster. If it's too serious and the roads are difficult to travel, we can't wait too long to prepare. Within half a month, at most we can deliver 20,000 stones."
Lu Wanyin was shocked: "Twenty thousand stones"
Zhan Xiangwen thought she thought it was too little, so he quickly added, "This is just the beginning. If necessary, give me five days to prepare, and I can ship out another 100,000 stones."
More than 100,000 shi of grain.
All of these can make the wilderness appear prosperous in a short period of time.
This guy is not bragging
He is a criminal.
Lu Wanyin went to see Xie Jingci again.
Seeing that he continued to nod with a smile, she nodded and said, "Xuan Qi and Xuan Yi can go together. This young master can go, but she has to stay."
Lu Wanyin gestured towards Gu Churou: "Don't worry, we will send someone to protect her, she will be fine."
Zhan Xiangwen quickly thanked them: "Thank you both."
He had no intention of taking Gu Churou with him.
I don’t know how bad the situation over there is. It’s inconvenient to take her there, and I don’t want my sweetheart to suffer like this.
Gu Churou hid behind Zhan Xiangwen a little uneasily, but did not refute.
He is also a polite person.
Lu Wanyin nodded: "Let's go, let's get out of here first."
The five of them reached an agreement in just a few words without even saying hello to Hou Yuanji, the nominal leader.
Lu Wanyin sat on Meili's back, soared into the sky, and easily crossed the earth wall blocking the way.
Xuan Qi and Xuan Yi, one with Xie Jingci and the other with Zhan Xiangwen, did not affect the activities at all.
With a few leaps, he easily climbed over the earth wall and disappeared.
Hou Yuanji held the bowl and sniffed: "Don't be angry, don't be angry. This isn't the first or second time. As long as they don't cause me trouble, I can do whatever they want."
But why do you feel so wronged?
He glared at the prisoners who were drooling over his bowl with a dark face: "What are you looking at? Hurry up and dig! If it weren't for you useless people, why would it take so long?"
Lu Wanyin sat on Meili's back, looking down at the ground and searching for the nearby village.
Zhan Xiangwen was held by Xuan Yi by the belt and rushed on the ground following the beauty in the sky.
He looked up at the top of his head with envy: "General's wife is such a big eagle, does she have any brothers or sisters?"
He wanted one too.
Xuan Yi didn't even look at him: "We don't even have a general, what are you dreaming about."
Zhan Xiangwen was depressed.
Don't you even want to think about it?
There are not many villages near this mountain. Apart from a few hunters' huts at the foot of the mountain, there is no human habitation.
Meili maintained a speed that the people below could keep up with. She flew for about an incense stick of time before she saw a village.
“Chiu!”
Meili gave the people underground a signal and then fell towards the village below.
The village was in a mess. Lu Wanyin swept the entire village from mid-air, and not a single intact house was left.
There were a dozen dirty people sitting in the open space at the entrance of the village, with tear marks on their faces that had been dried by the wind.
The children had obviously stopped crying and fell asleep in the arms of their adults.
Almost all of these people were injured, and there were several corpses not far away.
There were cries for help from all over the village, and some people were crying as they dug.
Lu Wanyin was used to seeing life and death, but she was still touched.
The cry of the beautiful bird before it landed on the ground made the numb people on the ground look up.
The beautiful and huge wings spread out, and a brilliant stream of fire streaked across the sky and fell down.
"Mom, what a beautiful big bird."
Some little babies were so attracted by the beauty that they forgot to cry for a moment.
Beauty landed steadily and folded its wings.
Only then did everyone see Lu Wanyin above.
After a moment of silence, the people who survived the disaster knelt on the ground with tears on their faces and clasped their hands together.
"The goddess is coming on a divine bird."
"Is the goddess here to save us?"
"Please, goddess, save my husband."
Some people who were digging saw Lu Wanyin and stumbled over.
A bloody hand tugged at the hem of her clothes, pleading, "Goddess, please save my child! She's still down there, she's still alive."
