Chapter 500 People Always Miss

The God of the West, who holds a high position and controls the power over incense in Dayu territory, wears a peach blossom crown and a purple gold robe, with long dancing hair. He is bathed in incense all year round, with three points of gold patterns at the corners of his eyebrows and eyes. He controls the west, protects peace, and captures fortune.

The location of Fu Yu City belongs to the west and the south, and is still under his jurisdiction. If it is another 354 miles below, it will be under the jurisdiction of the Southern God.

The Lord of the West frowned slightly. He felt something was wrong when he heard the news. Then he suddenly had an idea, so he asked the Flower River Gods if they had the gourd in their hands.

The Jihua River God shook his head. The gourd was in the hands of the water god across the river in Qingrao City. Even if it was handed over, it would be given to Lord Dong. There was no reason for it to be in her hands.

Upon hearing this, the God of the West left in a hurry. Before leaving, he ordered the water gods of the Flower River to prepare a small boat the next day. He would sail down the river to Qingrao City to ask for the gourd.

Since I can't see the true appearance, I'll try to find a clue or two from the wine gourd.

Compared with the mysterious gourd-throwing man, the matter entrusted by the mermaids will have to be postponed a little.

Things have their priorities, and the road to breaking the emperor's heart is still long. And the emperor is just a mortal no matter what, and no matter how tough a mortal's mind is, it always has its limits. The pace and hardships along the way will wear him down, it's just a matter of speed, whether it's early or late.

But as for the one who throws the gourd... it's hard to say. Although Lord Xishenren doesn't think that the other party can ignore three or four waves, he can't be careless because of this.

Jihua River God nodded, and Xi Shenjun did not blame Jihua River God for being slow in conveying the message, because the mountain and water gods, even though they were well-organized and tightly structured, were not like the court of the mortal world, and could accomplish things without precise coordination among all departments and levels.

It is normal for a dragon to be seen from head to tail all year round. The next morning, a small boat sailed eastward on the Jihua River. The river was surging, but it could not carry the boat. It traveled 800 miles a day, which was much faster than walking.

After the departure of Lord West, the affairs of Fu Yu City naturally fell into the hands of Jihua River Water God and Gushan Land God. They were given full responsibility, which was considered an important task.

However, the two gods groaned in their hearts. How could they understand such a heart-breaking thing?

……

Speaking of throwing the gourd, Li Changxiao had actually considered it carefully. There was a River Mother Temple in Qingrao City, and the temple was very popular. However, not all temples had spirits, and even if they did, not everything in the temple would be seen by the River Mother.

Especially this temple and the place where the mother river originated, the distance between them is unknown. The distance between the two is from Lingtianzhou in Qingyu to Dayu country in a certain continent in Xuanyu. One is located in the northernmost of the four southern regions, and the other is located in the south of the four southern regions. How many mortals have been running for their whole lives, but they can't even walk one ten-thousandth of the way.

If Li Changxiao went into the temple and called out in Lingtianzhou, the river mother might be able to hear something. But in Dayu Country, even if he called out, the river mother far away in the sky, even if she noticed something, would probably just sneeze a few times like someone was talking about her. It is still unknown whether the message could reach her ears. But nothing is absolute. If the river mother was willing to descend here at any cost, even though she was far away from him, she might be able to see everything clearly. Or maybe now that the incense has developed more perfectly, she can use sculptures to parade the gods, and she might be able to see everything clearly.

It is for this reason that the mermaids avoid the River Mother Temple at all costs. Out of caution, they would avoid entering if possible.

However, Li Changxiao's throwing of the gourd was not a request for help. Even if he did, he would never ask for help from the river mother.

Since this matter has nothing to do with him, why would Li Changxiao randomly drag people into the situation? To a certain extent, isn't this risking their lives?

There is only one fundamental motive for throwing the gourd.

The purpose is to inform He Mu, and let He Mu and other strong people who are at the center of the reform and the center of the human race know about the affairs of the mermaids. If the other party really has some plan, they will not be caught off guard.

As for how the human race would deal with it, it was not something Li Changxiao could ask about. He was just a wandering traveler. He naturally shouldered some responsibility for the prosperity of the world and the crisis of the human race. However, the main gathering place was far from him. It was the five great vehicles and the combined strong men who stirred up the situation and calmed the storm.

Li Changxiao will never avoid anything he can do.

That's the only reason.

From beginning to end, Li Changxiao never thought of asking for help, so after thinking it over, he threw the gourd down and let it float in the river.

The gourd originally belonged to Zhao Qing, and it flowed into the river. It would naturally return to his hands along the winding river. It would take one year, two years, three years... maybe longer, maybe faster, but it would eventually arrive. By then, he might no longer be in Dayu Country, and the events here would have already been concluded.

However, no one is perfect, and there are always omissions in human calculations. It was unexpected that the gourd was intercepted by the water god. Because the gourd was just an ordinary object, there was nothing special about it. Although the river was under the control of the water god, the god of mountains and rivers, in essence, was just a cultivator who asked for incense and received blessings from the unknown, so he was more sensitive to the mountains and rivers than ordinary cultivators and had some perception.

In the final analysis, he is still a cultivator. A river is constantly flowing, and there are so many things flowing and changing inside that if you don't use your spiritual sense to scan it all the time, you can't see it all.

But the inconspicuous wine gourd was snatched away.

This matter cannot be attributed to Li Changxiao's carelessness, nor can it be attributed to the water god's power.

If we dig deeper into the reasons, we can also say that good and bad are interdependent, good fortune hides bad, bad fortune hides good fortune, everything can be predicted, predicted, and calculated, but everything is also unpredictable, hard to guess, and hard to predict.

However... not to mention that they knew of Li Changxiao's existence, they knew of Li Changxiao's identity, appearance, and location, and they all came to find him.

It didn't scare the man in white. Instead, the man in white wanted to ask him to return the wine gourd.

That person who appears to be so carefree and doesn't care about anything can be really frightening if he becomes ruthless.

……

On the other hand, Li Changxiao and his companions successfully checked into an inn. After a quick nap, they went out to the streets to look for Tianji Pavilion the next morning.

Fu Yu City is a big city. What is extremely coincidental is that Li Changxiao once visited this city. Don’t forget that Meng Ze City is located on the west side of Dayu.

Li Changxiao walked eastwards and passed by this city, which was reasonable. He walked westwards for a short distance and returned to the tragically destroyed Mengze City. When he realized this, Li Changxiao was shocked and surprised. His emotions had collapsed all the way, but he had only gone in a big circle.

There was indeed a Tianji Pavilion in Fu Yu City, hidden deep in an alley. The two entered the pavilion, found the pavilion owner, and explained their purpose.

Most of the heads of Tianji Pavilion are cultivators, some old and some young, so it is difficult to make a general conclusion about them.

The leader of this pavilion is a young man with a slender figure, about the same height as Li Changxiao. He has an ordinary appearance, with no distinctive features in his nose, eyes, or mouth. He is the kind of person who is easily forgotten after being seen.
