Chapter 337: Southern Xinjiang Village
The little girl jumped up excitedly.
"Wow, there really are gods. I saw a god!"
Gu Xi took out a handful of lollipops from the space, tore open the wrapper of one of them, and stuffed it into the little girl's mouth.
"Is it sweet?"
The little girl nodded her head vigorously, her face full of excitement. She felt the candy was so sweet to her heart. She was so happy!
"Thank you, Fairy Sister! That's so sweet!"
Gu Xi stuffed all the remaining lollipops into the little girl's pocket and asked:
"Little sister, what's your name?"
The little girl took the lollipop out of her mouth, licked her lips, and said:
"My name is Aji."
After saying that, she stuffed the lollipop back into her mouth. Her little mouth was bulging and looked very cute.
Gu Xi asked again:
"Aji, can I ask you for a favor?"
Aji nodded quickly.
"Take me to the most powerful adult in your village, okay?"
Aji took out the lollipop again, but it was too big and he couldn't speak while holding it in his mouth.
"The most powerful person in our village is the village elder, Aji will take you there."
Gu Xi held Aji's hand and walked into the village.
As Aji walked, he kept looking at Gu Xi secretly, but he looked down on Chu Zhao.
Chu Zhao wanted to tease him:
"Little Aji, why don't you call me Brother Fairy? I have candy too."
Aji rolled his eyes and said:
"How can you have candy if you are a money-loser?"
Chu Zhao's eyes widened and he stood there in a daze.
What the hell? You call him a money-loser?
Could it be that this child has opened his clairvoyance and realized that he is a son-in-law who married into the family?
Gu Xi bent over with laughter.
"Haha...Little Aji, why do you say that?"
Aji said seriously:
"My grandma said that boys are all money-losing goods. Only girls like me and my sister are the heirs of the family and the pillars of the family."
Tsk tsk.
It turns out that girls are favored over boys in southern Xinjiang!
Chu Zhao touched his nose with a dejected expression.
(╯︵╰)
He originally wanted to ask Gu Xi for a handful of lollipops to prove that he had candy.
Now it seems unnecessary, because little Aji will probably say that he is a gigolo.
Aji led the two of them to a wooden house where some villagers had already gathered.
A woman was shocked when she saw Aji and Gu Xi holding hands. She immediately rushed over, grabbed Aji and held him in her arms.
Aji said in a childish voice:
"Mom, you hurt me."
Then he stuffed the lollipop in his hand into the woman's mouth.
"Mom, this is from the fairy sister, it's very sweet!"
The woman was horrified, she thought Gu Xi wanted to harm Aji.
"How can you just eat other people's food!"
Just as I was about to spit it out, I found that the sugar was extremely sweet, even sweeter than honey.
If it were poisonous, would it be so sweet?
She pinched the thin stick of the lollipop in astonishment, took it out of her mouth, and stared at the transparent, round candy in a daze.
Sweets are gifts from God, and only those who are blessed can eat them.
The villagers looked at Gu Xi and Chu Zhao warily. In the middle stood a thin old lady, about fifty or sixty years old. She walked forward two steps with a cane and asked:
"Who are you?"
Before Gu Xi could answer, Aji rushed to say:
"Village elder grandmother, this is the fairy sister, she came from the sky with that money-loser."
Chu Zhao: (|||?︵?)
You're not done yet, are you?
The few villagers who had just come running over had already reported to the village chief, and they had indeed seen them flying from the sky with their own eyes.
Gu Xi said:
"Hello, village elder. We have no ill intentions. We just want to ask for directions."
The village elder looked the two of them up and down:
"Where do you want to ask?"
Gu Xi said:
"We want to know where the Saint of Southern Border is?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole crowd changed color.
The village elder said with a sullen face:
"Go away, you are not welcome here!"
How could they allow outsiders to spy on their saint?
Gu Xi looked at the villagers' vigilant eyes and said hurriedly:
"Don't worry, we have no ill intentions. We are looking for the Saint because we want to do business with Southern Xinjiang."
No matter what Nanjiang's intention was to join forces with Beiyan to invade the Central Plains, Gu Xi decided to persuade them first.
The only conditions that Beiyan could offer were property and land.
The people in this village all look pale and thin, and one can tell at a glance that southern Xinjiang is very poor. If Gu Xi could provide them with enough food and warm clothing, why would the Saint Maiden take the risk?
The area south of this mountain has a beautiful name in modern times, called Xishuangbanna.
In those days, China sent a large number of educated youth to Xishuangbanna to settle and guard the border for the motherland and plant crops such as rubber.
This is not only China's largest rubber production base, but also a beautiful tourist destination. The people here have also escaped poverty and become rich because of this.
Although the village chief explicitly rejected Gu Xi, he did not dare to let the villagers take action. After all, these two people came from heaven, and who knew who they were.
The two sides were in a stalemate, and Little Aji suddenly said:
"Mom, my head hurts."
Little Aji's mother was called Axiu. Upon hearing this, she quickly looked down at her daughter in her arms and discovered that Aji, who was so lively just now, suddenly looked sick.
Ah Xiu became anxious and yelled at Gu Xi:
"What did you feed Aji? She's so young, why did you want to hurt her?"
Gu Xi wondered:
"I gave Aggie candy, there's absolutely no problem with that."
Aji also said weakly:
"Mom, don't blame the fairy sister, these candies are delicious."
As she spoke, she took out the colorful lollipop from her pocket and showed it to her mother.
When Ah Xiu saw it, she was terrified.
He quickly threw the pile of lollipops to the ground and said anxiously:
"Aji, didn't mom tell you? The brighter something is, the more poisonous it is."
Gu Xi explained:
"Those colorful things are just candy wrappers, not mushrooms, so they're not poisonous."
As she spoke, she picked up two lollipops, tore off the wrapping paper, and put one in her mouth each with Chu Zhao.
It seems to be really non-toxic.
The village elder walked up to Ah Xiu, touched Ah Ji's forehead, looked at her rosy little face, and said:
"She has a fever. Alas, poor child. She is suffering from the same strange fever disease as several other children in the village."
Ah Xiu panicked instantly, with tears filling her eyes.
"A strange disease? My poor Aji, I hope nothing happens to you!"
She gave birth to four money-losing children before she finally gave birth to a daughter, Aji.
How can she live without Aji!
The village chief was helpless about this situation.
I can only comfort Ah Xiu:
"Aji has always been strong and healthy, so she should be able to make it. Take her back and give her some dew to drink."
When people here are sick, they will drink dew, believing that dew is a gift from God and that drinking it can cure diseases. Some people have indeed gotten better after drinking dew.
Ah Xiu's face was filled with sadness. Just as she turned around and prepared to go back, she heard Gu Xi shout:
"Can I see Aggie?"
Gu Xi said:
"I am a god from heaven. I brought a lot of magic medicine with me. I can definitely save Aji."
