Chapter 14 The 20-year-old youth of the kidnapping village 12
"System, after the woman used your pill, her child should be more resilient than others, right?!"
Xu Fu was somewhat uncertain; what if something went wrong along the way?
Wouldn't his "investment" be a complete waste of time?!
Of course, once they get pregnant, the baby can be born.
Xu Fu nodded with satisfaction and immediately opened the courtyard gate.
Outside the courtyard, a huge crowd had already gathered.
Led by the village chief, they were waiting to offer sacrifices to the mountain god...
Xu Fu didn't even say hello; he simply sat cross-legged on the platform he had built.
After exchanging bewildered glances, the village chief and the others rushed into Xu Fu's courtyard.
Upon arriving before Xu Fu, a series of thuds rang out as everyone knelt in the courtyard.
Xu Fu looked up and saw only a series of buttocks sticking out high...
"Women seeking children, please leave the courtyard first and come back in later," Xu Fu called out to the crowd.
Some of the women were initially hesitant, but under the shoving and pushing of the village chief and others, they could only leave the courtyard reluctantly.
However, they didn't go far; they just leaned against the wall and looked inside.
Wait for the messenger of God to bestow a unique blessing upon the remaining people.
"Those who are healthy, step forward; everyone else, step back—"
Xu Fu shouted at the thirty or forty people kneeling on the ground.
The twenty-odd people remained in place, with only a few perceptive individuals moving back a little.
Xu Fu, with an air of superiority, waved his hand at the person in front of him and said loudly,
"Now, you can pray in your hearts—"
"I, the divine messenger, will act as a medium to communicate with the three gods on your behalf."
"Remember, sincerity moves mountains; if the mountain god hears your prayers..."
"If you are willing to lend a helping hand, you will naturally receive a divine medicine to ensure your safety for the time being..."
"As for who will get what they want, it depends on your merits."
After Xu Fu finished speaking, he closed his eyes, his left hand forming a sword-finger gesture, pointing directly at the top of his head.
He placed a small gold medal in his right hand on his lower abdomen, his lips moving silently.
As for what he muttered, only the system knows the whole story.
[The host has memorized the Ballad of Mulan very well.]
Xu Fu smugly snorted to himself, "What else could it be?!"
"This poem has been with me for six years—"
"When I have trouble falling asleep at night, I usually recite it twice in my mind."
"Guaranteed to help you fall asleep quickly and sleep soundly through the night."
"System, check on the condition of these dozen or so people. None of them are terminally ill."
"And those who committed fewer sins?!"
[Is the host planning to give them the Recovery Pill?!]
"Of course, but we can't make them fully recovered all at once."
"Choose two serious cases and cut each recovery pill in half."
"Wait for my gesture."
After Xu Fu finished discussing things with the system in his mind, he opened his eyes.
He let out a meaningless, strange cry, formed hand seals, and then waved his hand at the crowd.
He shouted, "Bring the elixir!"
Everyone felt that the shout was deafening, otherwise they would all look in the direction of Xu Fu.
The system received a command, and two small pills appeared out of thin air.
It hovered in front of the two middle-aged men.
"Look, look!"
"That thing is still floating in mid-air!"
"Appearing out of thin air, and actually possessing supernatural powers—"
Why were only those two chosen?
There was a constant murmur of discussion among the crowd, even among the women walking outside the courtyard.
They couldn't control their volume and kept chattering away.
Xu Fu, too lazy to listen to the noise, simply raised his hands and coughed heavily.
Seeing that the people's expressions were not right, the village chief immediately stepped in to control the situation. He glanced around...
Immediately, everyone shut their mouths and remained silent.
Xu Fu was finally satisfied and spoke softly:
"Please do not panic, everyone. This is the mountain god's way of thanking these two for their sincerity."
"Therefore, I will bestow upon you two pills. Hurry up and consume them!"
The two old men, as if waking from a dream, hurriedly and carefully took the pills with both hands.
Then, amidst the envious gazes of everyone, he swallowed it directly.
"Now that you have received the blessing, you may return home—"
"As for the others, they shouldn't be discouraged; they didn't receive the mountain god's blessing."
"This only proves that you are all healthy—"
"If you wish for health and longevity, you must keep the mountain god in your heart every day."
"We come to pay our respects every few days..."
"This divine messenger will certainly convey your sincerity to the Heavenly Court, and the Mountain God will be aware of it."
"I will definitely protect you." Xu Fu waved to the people in front of him again.
Some who failed to obtain the elixir refused to leave, stubbornly kneeling in place.
The village chief was extremely helpless and could only drag and pull the person out of the yard.
"Hurry up and leave! The divine messenger won't be receiving us today!"
"Don't let such a small matter anger people," the village chief said sternly.
The group could only leave dejectedly.
The remaining group, seeing their seats cleared, immediately knelt before Xu Fu.
He kept kowtowing to people and praying in a low voice.
Xu Fu couldn't hear what the other person was saying, so he could only ask.
"You're all here to make money, aren't you?" Xu Fu asked casually.
"Yes, yes, my family is very poor, and we really can't survive—"
"Please, Mountain God, have mercy and let us have enough to eat and wear..."
Upon hearing their explanation, Xu Fu nearly rolled his eyes to the sky.
After committing such heinous acts, they still expect to live a life of comfort and ease.
Do they really think this "god" is blind?!
"Then pray sincerely in your heart if you have any requests—"
Xu Fu waved his hand and repeated his previous actions.
Half an hour passed this time, and Xu Fu made no comment whatsoever.
While everyone was filled with anxiety, Xu Fu had already discussed things with the system in his mind.
“Choose the poorest old man and give him three gold beads.”
"Choose three more, and give each of them a gold bead—"
[Host, this is practically a losing proposition!]
"You'll find out soon enough whether you break even. Just do as I say—"
Xu Fu was too lazy to argue with the system. Only after the golden pearl appeared in front of everyone did Xu Fu stand up.
"This is all the mountain god can give you. Now that you have what you need, go back immediately."
"Those who have already obtained their wealth must not return for the next year!"
"Apart from birth, old age, sickness and death, no one may set foot in my hospital."
"Those who violate this rule will be immediately eliminated."
After Xu Fu finished speaking, he simply kicked the man out.
The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, and the four who had received the gold turned deathly pale.
However, even if they don't come looking for money for a year after getting all this gold and jewels for free, they won't lose out...
Suppressing his overwhelming joy, he was the first to walk out of the courtyard.
Seeing this, the others slowly followed.
After everyone had left Xu Fu's courtyard, Xu Fu was the last to leave as well.
