The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

Chapter 271 Immortality Tablet

Before he could finish his words, a team came from afar with music and dance.

Looking from a distance, everyone saw that the team consisted of about two to three hundred people.

Two children aged four or five were carried on a bamboo raft at the front of the team.

The child was tied up in the upper position and was crying loudly.

Seven or eight people were crying and shouting at the back of the bamboo raft: "My child..."

"You can't do this! Wuuuuuuu... Wuuuuuuu..."

When the team reached the edge of the river, a man dressed like a wealthy man came out and shouted, "Fall!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two bamboo rafts were put on the ground, and the seven or eight people immediately rushed over and held the children tightly.

The rich man waved to the people behind him and said, "Take them away!"

Immediately, dozens of strong men came out from the crowd and pulled a few people aside.

Zixuan was confused and walked forward to ask, "Big brother, what happened?"

The rich man took a few looks at her and saw that she was a woman as beautiful as a fairy.

Immediately, his face was full of smiles: "Miss, we are preparing to offer sacrifices to the river god."

Zixuan looked at the two children on the bamboo raft and asked: "Are they using children for sacrifice?"

"Yeah!"

"Why are you offering sacrifices to the river god?"

"Because if we don't offer sacrifices, we're afraid it might get angry and eat people, or cause a flood."

"The floods occurred because the river water rose due to heavy rain, and the dams could not bear the pressure, so they burst out."

"What does it have to do with the river god? Besides, there's no river god in this river!"

"Why is the river god not here? He even came out and ate someone yesterday."

"That's not a river god, it's a large carnivorous fish called a crocodile!"

"That's nonsense! Zhang Banxian said that the man-eating monster is the river god!"

"As long as you sacrifice young boys and girls, it won't come out to eat people!"

"Where are you from? You don't sound like a local from your accent. Get out of the way before you miss the auspicious time!"

Zixuan sneered: "What if I don't agree?"

The rich man also glared at her: "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business! Otherwise, I will arrest you and sacrifice you together with me!"

At this moment, the crocodile quietly climbed ashore and came behind the rich businessman who was pointing and gesticulating.

Seeing this, people immediately shouted: "Chief! Chief! The river god is coming! The river god is coming!"

"Huh?" The chief was startled and just as he was about to turn around, the crocodile bit his calf and dragged him into the river.

Zixuan grabbed the patriarch's arm, stretched out her hand, and the shining sword fell into her palm.

Then she swung the sword and chopped it hard at the crocodile's mouth. With a snap, the crocodile's nose was cut off by her.

The crocodile felt pain and immediately let go of its leader and ran towards the river. Zixuan would never let it escape.

She waved her little hand and said silently in her heart: "Collect!" With a swish, the crocodile was instantly taken into the space by her.

Everyone witnessed this scene and was immediately shocked:!

"Ah! The fairy has come down to earth! The river god has been taken away by the fairy..."

Afterwards, hundreds of people knelt down and kowtowed: "Greetings to the Fairy! Greetings to the Fairy..."

Zixuan was secretly happy. The title of fairy was nice and convincing.

She raised her hand to the crowd and said, "Get up! I've taken the crocodile away. It will never come out to eat people again!"

At this moment, the clan leader no longer cared about the pain in his calf. He knelt on the ground and shouted, "Thank you, fairy, for saving my life! Thank you, fairy, for saving my life!"

Zixuan helped him up and smiled slightly: "Are you still offering the child to the river god this time?"

The clan leader kowtowed immediately: "I won't dare to do that anymore! I won't dare to do that anymore!"

Then he shouted to the strong men, "Let the child go!"

When the children's relatives heard that their children were saved, they immediately cheered for joy.

Pulling the child to his knees before Zixuan, he kowtowed loudly, dong dong dong, dong dong dong: "Thank you, Fairy! Thank you, Great Immortal!"

Zixuan raised his hand to signal everyone to stand up. The clan leader wiped his tears and said:

"Sir, our village is just ahead. Please come to my humble abode for a cup of tea and then leave."

"Zixuan thought about it and decided, 'Okay, since I'm out for fun anyway.'"

So he readily agreed. After entering the village, Zixuan saw that it was very big.

Every household lived in a large blue brick and tile house. I was curious and asked the clan leader:

"Chief, I see that everyone in the village lives in large brick and tile houses. Are the villagers very wealthy?"

The village chief shook his head: "That's not the case. The fairy knows something."

"A few years ago, the State of Chu was hit by a massive flood, the worst in a century. All the houses in the village were washed away."

"Thanks to the rescue boats dispatched by Zixuan, the City Lord of Fugui City in Qi State, 80% of the villagers were able to survive."

"After she rescued us, she sent us rice and noodles, which helped us survive the famine."

"After the flood receded, Prince Heng of Fugui City sent us some money to build these large tiled houses for us, which is why we have the good life we ​​have now!"

"To express their gratitude to King Zixuan, every household in the tribe erected a longevity tablet for her."

"I pray day and night that God will bless her with a long life and eternal peace."

After hearing this, Zixuan felt very relieved. She didn't expect that the people she had rescued still remembered her...

After a night's rest, everyone continued on their journey and sightseeing. Five days later, they arrived at Xiangfan City, on the border of Chu and Jin.

This city is very large and strategically located, making it an easy place to defend but difficult to attack.

Xiangfan City is the only way for Chu State to go to Jin State, so there is a lot of traffic at the city gate.

Zixuan and his group arrived at the city gate and saw many people gathered at the wall reading a notice.

She was curious and walked over to take a look, and saw that it was a notice seeking a famous doctor.

The above content roughly says that the county magistrate's only daughter has a strange disease and is seeking a famous doctor. Whoever can cure her will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins and a hundred hectares of fertile land.

Bo Yuan walked closer and took a look: "Xuan, don't you have a doctor in your space? Let's treat her."

"Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, what do you think?"

Zixuan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say." He then stepped forward and took down the notice.

The guards saw someone take down the notice and immediately stepped forward to ask:

"Excuse me, young lady, are you here to treat the young lady?"

Zixuan nodded and said, "Take me to see the patient!"

Okay, the soldier agreed and led Zixuan towards the county magistrate's mansion.

Inside the county magistrate's office, County Magistrate Jia Zhuang and his wife Renci were sighing as they looked at their daughter lying on the bed.

Half a year ago, my daughter vomited for no reason, had no appetite, and her abdomen grew bigger day by day.

I consulted all the famous doctors in the city, but no one could figure out what was wrong with my daughter.

Just as he was worrying about it, a yamen runner came in and announced, "Sir, someone has taken down the list!"

The couple was delighted and quickly ordered someone to invite Zixuan in.

Seeing that Zixuan was an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, he immediately became discouraged.

Jia Zhuang glared at the soldier and asked, "Are you stupid? How can you be a doctor at such a young age?"

The soldier scratched his head and felt that he was being too abrupt. He immediately put on a stern face and said, "Hurry up and leave!"

Zixuan asked in confusion, "Aren't you looking for someone to treat you? Why are you kicking me out?"

The soldier glared at her and said, "How old are you? Can you treat a disease? Tell me! Are you here to cheat people out of money?"
