Chapter 343: Shuzhou General
Chapter 343: Shuzhou General
The Great Elder was a little embarrassed and explained:
"A head-on confrontation won't work, but the Saint should have a way to outsmart them."
Gu Xi looked into her eyes and asked:
"What's the clever way?"
The great elder shook his head.
"This, the Saint didn't say."
Gu Xi used mind reading to check and found that she was not lying.
It seems that she really doesn't know where the saint has gone.
This is troublesome. There are two directions to enter the Central Plains from southern Xinjiang, one is Shuzhou and the other is Guizhou.
The two states have complex terrain and involve multiple counties.
This means that there are dozens of paths that the saint might take, so it is not easy to find her.
Seeing Gu Xi frowning, there was a hint of anger on his face.
The great elder said hurriedly:
"Fairy, I will immediately arrange for people to chase back the two armies. I will go to look for the Saint personally. My white Gu can sense the Saint's golden silkworm Gu within a hundred miles, so I will definitely be able to find the Saint."
Gu Xi's expression eased slightly.
"Okay, go find the Saint quickly. I will leave two fairies in the Saint's Palace. They can transmit sound over a thousand miles. If there is any news, you can tell them and they will inform me."
After Gu Xi finished speaking, he suddenly disappeared from the spot.
Before coming to southern Xinjiang, she brought three hundred special forces to the space villa, including ten communications soldiers.
In addition, 300 special forces were sent to modern times to learn various skills, and 200 stayed in Chaoxi Palace.
The Great Elder was stunned and looked at Chu Zhao who had been sitting next to him without saying a word.
"This - may I ask where the fairy has gone?"
The word "immortal couple" pleased Chu Zhao. He immediately sat up straight, with an unfathomable look, and performed:
"Wait a moment. I will count to three and conjure up three immortals for you."
"one!"
"two!"
In the space, Gu Xi gave two signalmen some brief instructions on the general situation in southern Xinjiang and asked them to stay in the Holy Maiden Temple.
As soon as he brought the two out, he heard Chu Zhao count:
"three!"
Gu Xi gave him a sidelong look. He never forgot to be naughty at any time.
What can she do? She can only cooperate with her man and pamper him.
The Great Elder stared in amazement at the sudden appearance of the fairy and the two... fairy men?
"Great Elder, please arrange a place for them to live. I am also leaving to go to Fengyi Country to stop the Saint Girl from causing trouble in the Central Plains."
The first elder quickly agreed, and asked someone to invite the third elder, instructing her to take charge of the overall situation in southern Xinjiang.
As soon as the third elder came in, he said happily:
"Great Elder, the children have taken the elixir and are getting better."
The Great Elder breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the children could be saved, there was still hope for Southern Xinjiang.
She explained the situation to the Third Elder, and then said to Gu Xi:
"Fairy, I will set out immediately to find the Saint!"
Gu Xi nodded and said:
"Then we'll take our leave too!"

Shuzhou.
Nan Keling and the two guards who accompanied her changed into Han women's clothes, sneaked into the city, and found an inn to stay in.
"Afang, go buy some food."
"Aying, go find out who is in charge of the military in Shuzhou."
The two women agreed and went out.
Nan Keling closed the door, took out a golden box, and with a movement of his hand, a golden silkworm Gu appeared in his palm.
She placed the golden silkworm Gu in a golden box, took out a small knife, cut her finger, and dripped a few drops of blood into it.
"Eat, and help me work when you're full. Xiao Jin, whether Shuzhou can be taken, and whether the people of Southern Xinjiang can have a future, all depends on you..."
After the golden silkworm Gu consumed Nan Keling's blood, bursts of golden light appeared all over its body.
As soon as Nan Keling stretched out her hand, the golden silkworm Gu flew into her palm and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Not long after, Aying and Afang came back.
A Yingbin reports:
"Saint, the commander-in-chief of Shuzhou is Huang Yin, he is over 40 years old, he likes to go to brothels, he has recently become obsessed with the top girl in the Beauty House, he goes there every night to show his support, so it is easy to find out."
Nan Keling snorted coldly.
"There are few good Han officials."
But this also made it convenient for her, as people with greedy hearts are easier to control.
After dinner, when it got dark, Nan Keling brought Afang and Aying to the Beauty Building.
All three of them knew martial arts, so they were able to sneak in easily.
After stealing clothes from the maid in the Beauty Building and changing into them, the three of them entered a room carrying a tray.
The beauty in the room was named Ruyu. She had just finished dressing up and was about to go out to receive guests. When she saw a maid coming in, she thought she was delivering wine and food, and said:
"Just put it on the table."
As soon as Aying put down the tray, a dagger appeared in her hand. She turned around and put it against Ruyu's neck, covering her mouth at the same time.
Ruyu was so frightened that her face turned pale. She looked at the three people in panic, only to find that they were three unfamiliar faces.
She wanted to shout for help, but could only make whimpering sounds.
"Shut up if you want to live!" Ah Ying waved the dagger.
Looking at the gleaming dagger, Ruyu nodded repeatedly with tears in her eyes.
Nan Keling sat down on the chair and asked:
"Do you know Huang Yin, the general of Shuzhou?"
Ruyu hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
Huang Yin was a frequent visitor to the Beauty House, and almost all the beauties knew him.
Nan Keling said:
"Take her out and let her recognize him."
Ah Ying removed the dagger from Ruyu's neck, placed it against her lower back, and threatened:
"You better cooperate honestly, otherwise I'll use a white knife to attack you and a red knife to attack you."
Ruyu cooperated and walked out of the room. They were on the second floor and there was a railing at the door. Aying held the dagger against the beauty and looked down from above.
To outsiders, it looked like Ruyu and her maid were just leaning on the railing and looking down.
Another prostitute joked:
"Hey, Miss Ruyu, are you looking for your Mr. Zhang? How about I come to accompany you tonight? Hahahaha..."
Ruyu didn't say anything, but just smiled awkwardly, fearing that if she moved too much, she would be stabbed by the dagger behind her.
Ruyu glanced around and didn't see Huang Yin. She whispered:
"He's not in now."
Nan Keling stood on the other side and asked:
"Where else would he be besides the Hall?"
Ruyu thought for a moment and said:
"It could also be in Miss Rumeng's room."
Rumeng is the top prostitute in the Beauty House, and Huang Yin often goes to see her.
"lead the way!"
Aying supported Ruyu, followed by Nan Keling and Afang, and slowly walked towards the room on the other side of the Beauty Building.
When they reached a house, Ruyu pointed.
Nan Keling lowered her voice and said:
"Please check if he is here."
Ruyu knocked on Rumeng's door.
"Who?"
Ruyu replied:
"Sister Rumeng, it's me, Ruyu."
Aying pushed open the half-open door for her.
Inside was a slightly fat middle-aged man holding a pretty beauty.
Ruyu struggled for a moment and wanted to shout for help.
But Aying pushed the dagger closer, almost piercing her skin, and she was so scared that she swallowed the life-saving words that were about to come out of her mouth.
"What are you doing here?" Ru Meng frowned.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Sister Rumeng, I thought Master Zhang was here, maybe I was wrong. Since he's not here, I'll look for him somewhere else."
Young Master Zhang is her lover, so it is appropriate to use him as a shield.
