Chapter 221 Master
It soon became apparent that opening this was extremely difficult.
After trying it for the first time, the routine operation failed. He thought for a while and continued, but it didn't open on the second round either. He tried countless times afterwards, but each time ended in failure.
Not to mention what happened to Gu Feixue, even he himself was embarrassed, "This is not a mystery box, this is a whole piece of wood, no one can open it."
"My lord, it's too early. The fact that I can give you this proves that this is indeed a secret box and it can indeed be opened." Gu Feixue picked up the box and handed it over again, but Su Xipo glared at him.
"If you say this is a mystery box, please open it and let me open my eyes."
"I can't open it either, but the caster has told me the technique. I'll open it for you to see, but we have a deal. Once I open it, you have to accept the loss." Hearing this, Su Xipo nodded in frustration.
In fact, Su Xipo himself understood that he might not be able to solve the flood problem by his own means.
Therefore, if there was a chance to lend a helping hand, there was really no need for him to refuse. Thinking of this, he was willing to compromise.
Gu Feixue gave it a gentle spin, then twisted and tapped it with a serious expression. With a clatter, the mystery box actually opened. Su Xipo, who was standing opposite her, was stunned. "Can it really be opened?"
"Seeing is believing, so what? Are you willing to admit defeat, sir?"
"this……"
Su Xipo was filled with joy, shame, and all sorts of strange and complex emotions. Finally, he cried out in despair, "What a great master! I admire you so much!"
"I'll introduce him to you, but we have to have a gentleman's agreement. My master is a free spirit, but he's very concerned about his reputation. He's much more powerful than you, so we have to honor him. I absolutely don't mean to belittle you. You'll soon realize how powerful he is."
Hearing this, Su Xipo's eyes lit up.
"Then let's go back the same way." Gu Feixue ordered.
He easily persuaded Su Xipo with his eloquent tongue.
Su Xipo knew that his abilities were limited, so he was very happy that Gu Feixue introduced a hermit master to him.
Time waits for no one, and Gu Feixue can't continue waiting here.
The group quickly came to Amogong's side.
A Mogong was taking a nap with his eyes closed when he suddenly heard the hurried sound of horse hooves outside. He turned around hurriedly and saw Gu Feixue coming back with a smile. Behind Gu Feixue was a mature and steady man, who seemed to be an official.
Seeing the officials coming, the lonely Amo Gong was actually very complacent.
After all, everything was just as Gu Feixue said. The other party came to visit him three times, but he still sat upright.
Gu Feixue smiled sweetly and approached, "Master, the court's Lord Su has arrived. Lord Su is the head of the Ministry of Works. Now that he has come to show respect to the talented, there is no more than three times the limit. Master, please excuse yourself and come with us to Jiangzhou."
"Master Su? What Master Su?" A Mogong clearly saw Su Xipo, but pretended not to see him.
Su Xipo found that there were so many ingenious designs in this house, and these designs were all A Mogong's own original creations. As a young and skilled craftsman, he was surprised to see this.
"Now the people of Jiangzhou are about to turn into fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs. Please, old immortal, take action."
"What immortal or not, he just looks a bit like an immortal." His tone and expression had gradually softened. Seeing this, Gu Feixue signaled the other side to continue breaking the ice.
Su Xipo is a smart man, so continue.
Gu Feixue discovered that those who could become officials were all eloquent people. It seemed that their starting point was to consider you, but in fact, they were still calculating themselves.
Although he is obviously selfish, every word he says touches the hearts of his audience.
Moreover, Amo Gong originally wanted to become famous by controlling floods.
At this moment, with Gu Feixue's constant support, A Mogong had already wavered, "Forget it, forget it, I will go to Jiangzhou with you now."
"Great." Seeing that she had convinced Amogong, Gu Feixue suddenly smiled.
But before leaving, Amo Gong had something else to say.
"While I am going over there with you, I have something to say here."
"Just what you say."
The two spoke almost in unison.
"Since this matter has been handed over to me, I am the commander-in-chief. You don't need to ask the reason for what I say. Just follow my instructions." In other words, everyone just needs to listen to him.
"must!"
Gu Feixue nodded.
"There can only be two rulers in this country, so this matter can only be entrusted to me. If anyone obstructs you along the way, Xue'er, you must do your utmost to persuade them and overcome all objections. Everything must be done according to my standards and requirements."
"yes!"
If there really were talented people in Jiangzhou, the matter would have been handled long ago. Could it have been delayed until today?
Gu Feixue had thought about all of this and decided to ask A Mogong to come out of retirement. After hearing Gu Feixue's resounding answer, A Mogong smiled.
"That's good. I have no objection. Let's go."
After getting on the carriage, A Mogong closed his eyes. Seeing A Mogong's lazy state, Gu Feixue thought of herself in her previous life. In her previous life, she would also relax herself before carrying out a mission.
Try not to think about the difficulties and possibilities you will face in the future.
After making thorough adjustments, Gu Feixue will quickly switch between personalities and roles, doing so with ease.
The weather has been better recently, and Gu Feixue did not receive any letter from Yuchi Shuo along the way.
Perhaps no news is the best news. Both of them are old, and Gu Feixue can't let them go to Jiangzhou looking tired and exhausted.
They had quite a bit of rest time along the way. Ever since getting on the carriage, A Mogong had been resting with his eyes closed, which puzzled Su Xipo standing beside him.
Finally, when they were resting at the inn, Su Xipo couldn't help it. Seeing that A Mogong went to rest after dinner, Su Xipo approached Gu Feixue.
"This one of ours looks too old. He fell asleep after getting on the bus. Girl, I'm afraid he won't be able to handle things in the future."
"Why do you think so? Is it because he's sleepy? But the journey is long and winding. If he doesn't get enough rest, what will he do when he reaches his destination?"
"But he's been resting a bit too much. Anyway, please consider it. We haven't used him yet, so we can replace him at any time."
"No……"
Gu Feixue's attitude was very clear and firm: "Amo Gong must be used no matter what. I believe in his ability."
Not long after, a group of people entered Jiangzhou.
But after arriving in Jiangzhou, Amogong had more things to do. Sometimes he had to get off the car to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and sometimes he had to eat this and that. Even Gu Feixue herself felt overwhelmed by the noise.
