The four were stopped outside the camp and couldn't get in.

Gu Chan was confident. With her strength and Bai Jingtian's cooperation, it was not impossible for the two of them to force their way in. But the key problem was that they came to ask for help, so they couldn't just barge in, right?

Yan Xishan said with a bitter face, "It's over, the general is not going to help us!"

"No, in my opinion, he should be testing the seventeenth prince." Guo Huai suddenly said solemnly.

"What do you mean, Mr. Guo?" Yan Xishan asked puzzledly.

Guo Huai looked at the open gate of the camp in front of him, and after thinking deeply, he said, "If the general really didn't want to see us, he should have closed the gate of the camp tightly. But now the gate is completely open, and only two soldiers are sent to guard it. Considering that he intended to test the second prince before, it is estimated that this time it should be a test for the seventeenth prince as well."

"Old man Guo, I always thought you were a fool before. How come you suddenly become so smart and look at problems so deeply? You really surprise me a little!" Gu Chan said with a wry smile.

This old guy also had some credit for Xuanyuan Lie's suicide by taking poison. If it weren't for his bad advice, Xuanyuan Lie probably wouldn't have ended up in such a desperate situation.

So from beginning to end, Gu Chan had always been wary of him.

But now, he seemed to have suddenly woken up. Not only did his head become clear, but he was also able to analyze the problem very well, which surprised Gu Chan.

Guo Huai said with embarrassment, "It's different now! The knife is on my neck, and my head could fall to the ground at any moment. If I don't wake up, I'm afraid I'll be the next one to lose my head."

"Mr. Guo is right. I am much more sober now. The scene of the second prince committing suicide by taking poison last time was really a bit creepy! He is the second prince of Tiancang Kingdom, but he was forced into such a desperate situation. How can we compare with him? If we don't wake up, I'm afraid our fate will be even worse than his." Yan Xishan also shouted.

Gu Chan nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and her mood instantly improved.

Bai Jingtian did not say more about this matter, instead he urged, "Okay, stop talking about these useless things, now let's think about how we are going to get in! Anyway, forcing in is definitely not an option, after all, we are here to ask for help, so we still have to use our wits to outwit them."

"Seventeenth Prince, you always have a lot of clever ideas, so you should think of a solution!" Yan Xishan said to Gu Chan with a smile.

Gu Chan put her hand on her chin and thought for a while. Soon she curled her lips and smiled. She took a step forward and looked at the two gatekeepers and said, "Two soldiers, the general only said that he would not see us and would not let us in. He did not say that he would not let my mysterious beast in, right?"

"This... this is not the case." The soldier standing on the left said in surprise.

"That's fine, Xiaobai, go in!" Gu Chan shouted at the carriage behind him.

The white fox immediately got out of the carriage and without saying a word, rushed into the Jiangnan camp.

"Oh my god! Whose mysterious beast is this? Why is it breathing fire and burning my tent?"

"Everyone, come and catch this mysterious beast."

"Whoever let it in to cause trouble, catch it quickly."

After a while, there was a commotion in the camp. The white fox was like a wild rabbit on the loose, making trouble in the camp and spitting fire from its mouth to burn things, causing the officers and soldiers to panic and become furious.

Gu Chan stood at the gate of the camp, arms folded across her chest, watching the chaotic scenes inside, grinning from ear to ear.

Bai Jingtian said with a pale face, "We are here to ask for help! Isn't this a bad idea?"

"It's okay, let's wait until we annoy him." Gu Chan said with a sly smile.

Then the four of them waited quietly outside.

About half an hour later, Nan Xing Kuang finally couldn't stand it anymore. He came out of the general's mansion in anger and personally caught the white fox that was making trouble. Then he picked up the white fox by its fur on the back of its neck and carried it to the gate of the camp like a puppy.

Standing in front of Gu Chan and the other three, he said with a stiff face, "You are really brave to let your mysterious beast come to my camp to cause trouble. Aren't you afraid that I will chop it into pieces with a knife and peel its fox skin to make a shawl?"

"General, I didn't ask it to cause trouble for you, but to let it go into the camp to rescue you. The spiritual energy in your camp is too strong, so it must disturb you and eliminate the spiritual energy. Otherwise, over time, your spiritual energy will be slowly absorbed, causing your physical condition to get worse and worse." Gu Chan said with a wink.

"Nonsense." Nan Xing Kuang didn't believe it and thought Gu Chan was deliberately using this to get close to him.

Throwing the white fox in front of Gu Chan with a bang, he shouted coldly, "Go away! Don't bother me again, or I will punish you severely next time."

"General, what I said is true. There is a water cave under your military camp. There lives a spiritual beast in it. It practices by absorbing the spiritual energy of all the people and mysterious beasts in your camp every day." Gu Chan said.

Nan Xingkuang, Bai Jingtian and the other two all looked up at her with disbelief on their faces.

Bai Jingtian quickly put his mouth close to her ear and whispered, "Your excuse is too far-fetched! Even I don't believe it!"

"Yeah! Why don't you stop talking nonsense and explain it to the general!" Yan Xishan said fearfully.

"Seventeenth Prince, please stop talking nonsense. If you anger the general, it will be impossible for us to ask him for help." Guo Huai also hurriedly persuaded.

Gu Chan said angrily, "You know nothing. What I said is true. When you cut off my medicinal herbs, I wanted to find this spirit beast to deal with you. However, I didn't expect that the second prince would commit suicide by taking poison, leading to the current situation. Otherwise, I would have gone to find that spirit beast a long time ago."

"Who told you that there is a water cave under my Jiangnan camp?" Nanxing Kuang asked with narrowed eyes.

"I heard it from a carp." Gu Chan confessed.

As soon as she said this, the two soldiers guarding the gate suddenly burst out laughing.

Nan Xing turned around and glared at them. They quickly stopped smiling and dared not laugh anymore.

Bai Jingtian and the other two wanted to die, as they thought what Gu Chan said was simply ridiculous.

Nan Xing glared at her angrily and yelled, "Don't think that just because I pamper you, you can talk nonsense in front of me. Get out of here right now, or I'll be the first to beat you up."

"Hey! If you don't believe me, just come with me to the shore behind the Jiangnan camp. Let's dive into the water together. I'll take you to find that water cave." Gu Chan said helplessly.

Nan Xingkuang didn't believe her at first, but when he saw her determined look, he immediately became interested.
