Brought back to the main issue by Fan Wanming's question, Xue Ruhong nodded seriously. "That's right. This general has discovered the origin of the golden pillar."
Unable to bear the suspense, Tan Pengtai urged, "Stop keeping us in suspense! Hurry and tell us. This general is about to die from anxiety!"
Xue Ruhong helplessly glanced at him, then continued, "The first golden pillar appeared when we enshrined Fairy Bai's golden statue in the temple. The second appeared when Military Advisor Tuluo was interrogated by the Great General and finally chose to join us."
"The third appeared after the rain-praying ceremony. It was when the long-awaited rain fell, and the people were grateful for Heaven's blessing and Fairy Bai's kindness."
At this point, Xue Ruhong asked, "Do you all see the connection between these events?"
Fan Wanming thought for a moment, then realization dawned on him.
Noticing the slight change in Fan Wanming's expression, Xue Ruhong smiled in satisfaction.
