128 I Can Only Save One (1/2)
It was indeed an odd sickness! Unfortunately, the two kids had now become dumb and could not speak a word.
In fact, the two kids were literate but their hands were shaking and rendered them not able to write a single word. Therefore, nobody could ask what exactly happened to them in the Dark Forest.
The Dark Forest was a well-known forbidden area in Feixing Kingdom. There were rumors about the forest that it had numerous human-eating monstrous beasts, and an illusionary mud which you cannot escape from once you have been bogged down. Therefore, people normally dared not enter, so they never expected that these two innocent kids would intrude the forest!
The emperor casted his hopeful gaze towards Gu Xijiu and Gu Xixi, ”Can both of you identify the symptoms of their disease?”
Gu Xixi looked at the two kids, ”Which one of you are willing to let me do a diagnosis?”
The eyes of the two kids brightened but they could not talk, so they nodded their head in unison!
The feeling of pride flashed through the eyes of Gu Xixi but she sighed softly, ”But I can only heal one of you, because the other one would be given to the sixth Gu daughter.” She pointed at Gu Xijiu with her thin and long finger.
Panic flashed through the eyes of the two kids.
Gu Xixi chuckled, ”Which one of you are willing to be seen by the sixth Gu daughter? She could probably heal your illness by sheer luck.”
The two kids were shaking their head fast.
The people, ”…”
Gu Xixi finally regained her reputation. She took a glance at Gu Xijiu, ”It seems that they can't trust the sixth Gu daughter. But they are placing me in a very difficult position because I can only heal one.”
Yu Gelao could not contain himself and said, ”Saint, if you can save one of my children, please be merciful enough to save another one after you win the bet.”
