When the Great Dao Dies, I Remain; When Spiritual Energy Withers, I Endure

Chapter 440: A Fainting Along the Way

Since Mengze City is already a dead city, it is left in the world, leaving only strange diseases and rotten stench to breed. It is better to burn it down and put an end to it.

Li Changxiao summoned the flames with the fire seal, and saw black smoke piercing the sky, flames penetrating the sky, and layers of heat waves rolling, which really burned the sky and the earth.

The fire burned for three days and three nights, and Li Changxiao sat on a small hill in the distance and watched for three days and three nights. It’s not that he is sentimental and unwilling to leave. He really has no feelings for Mengze City, but only feels regret and sadness. He also wants to be arrogant for once, and take the suspicion of meddling in other people’s affairs to help this tragedy that should have been silent forever, and seek justice. Maybe it can’t be recovered, but there should always be someone to ask about it.

Or, if even Li Changxiao doesn’t ask about it, then the people here will die a joke.

The cultivators don’t say that the heaven and the earth have their hearts, but they should have a certain sense of responsibility to borrow the power of the heaven and the earth and enjoy the grace of the heaven and the earth. What's more, he was originally looking for the tomb of the God of Dreams. For him, this matter was not even a heroic act, but just what he wanted, what he did, and what went with the flow.

But that was all later. At this moment, he was sitting on the mountain and watching the fire, just wanting to keep the fire from spreading to other places.

The flames were rampant. If they burned the mountain and continued to burn, it would be a real tragedy. So, Li Changxiao became a fireman. When he saw the fire trying to spread outward, he pinched the breeze with his hands and blew it back.

After three or four days of patching up the east and the west, he finally burned everything that could be burned in the city. The fire lost its "root" and naturally subsided gradually.

In this fire, even the bones were burned to ashes, leaving only a charred empty space.

The wind blew again.

Mengze City was like waking up from a dream, everything was gone, except for a charred ground, there was no other trace.

Li Changxiao suddenly slapped his head, feeling extremely annoyed. Before setting the fire, he forgot to find a few wine cellars and take out some jade wine.

One misstep will lead to eternal regret. He will have to spend money to buy wine in the future, but fortunately, he still has some legacy money, so he doesn't have to worry about silver for the time being.

When he thought of silver, he slapped his head again, feeling extremely annoyed. Although picking up corpses is a bit immoral, meeting is fate. Taking a large silver ingot at will is enough for him to be free and easy for a long time.

But he was busy investigating the case and forgot it again.

Since it has turned to ashes, Li Changxiao naturally plans to leave. As for where to go, he already has an idea in his mind.

He is going to the rich town on the east side of Dayu country.

He had noticed that there are several places in Mengze City where dream fruits are hidden. Among the group of mermaids who committed the crime, some people are very meticulous to prevent human beings from tracking them down.

After the dream fruit senses the spiritual energy, it will record the image and feedback it to the person who planted the fruit. It is a means of counter-reconnaissance.

This trick is also known by the Dream Dao God, hidden in the dream of the Great Dream Three Thousand Strategies. Li Changxiao, who has comprehended the Great Dream Three Thousand Strategies for no less than a hundred times, can naturally draw inferences from it and learn a little bit, but it is mostly useless to him and he has never studied it seriously.

The dream fruit is hidden very secretly, and the Dream Dao method is very superb. However, when Li Changxiao opens the dream sense, the Dream Dao hidden fruit becomes particularly obvious.

Even the person who planted the fruit was amazed by the Dream Dao, far better than everyone he had ever seen before.

But Li Changxiao could still find it.

Not only that, he can also spy on the other party's situation through the reverse dream, so Ji Beiming's action, although smart and meticulous, was finally misled by his cleverness.

Instead, it exposed the whereabouts of himself and others.

However, Li Changxiao did not know much about the terrain of Dayu Country, and he only met them a few times in a hurry, so he knew very little.

Therefore, he only knew the general direction, but he still had to look for it. Li Changxiao, who was used to looking, would not find it troublesome. Everything in the world is difficult, and the smooth things should be left to dreams.

Reality is always rocky and rugged.

After leaving Mengze City, he walked more than ten miles and saw a team of officials. It turned out that they saw the fire nearby and came to investigate.

Li Changxiao met them head-on. The other party grabbed Li Changxiao and asked him several questions, asking him where he came from, where he was going, what he was going to do, and why he saw the fire?

Li Changxiao answered fluently and was quite honest. He came from somewhere else, went to somewhere else, wanted to kill people, and the fire was set by him.

The official saw this and was annoyed. He felt that this person was playing tricks on him, so he didn't want to let him go like this. He wanted to handcuff him and lock him up for a few days to be honest.

"See what you are still arrogant about."

The official handcuffed him triumphantly.

At this time, the constable under his command looked at the official with a strange expression, which annoyed the official and asked, "Look, what are you looking at?"

"Sir, you are talking to yourself, why do you handcuff yourself?" The constable under his command reported truthfully.

It turned out that the constable did not see anyone, but only saw the official talking to himself, glaring at him, and then shouting loudly. Finally, he handcuffed his legs triumphantly.

The constables were still thinking that this new second-generation official who was difficult to serve and suspected of being gilded had developed some quirks after years of pampering.

The official woke up as if from a dream, and saw no white-clothed swordsman. He thought he had met a ghost, and what was worse, the key to open the handcuffs was missing.

The rest of the journey, with more than 20 kilograms of shackles on his shoulders, was going to be a tough one for him.

Li Changxiao watched this scene from a distance, laughed loudly, threw the key into the fish's belly, and left leisurely.

If someone were here, they would definitely find that this man who was always out of tune was actually very childish and sometimes loved to play pranks.

He looked at the official's wailing, sat on a huge rock, covered his face and cried, no matter how the constable beside him comforted him, it was useless.

Throughout history, he was the only one who handcuffed himself and couldn't find the key. This was a huge loss of face. Maybe he would make trouble in the capital of Dayu Kingdom in the future. He would have to leave his name in history.

The more he thought about it, the more scared he became, so he cried. Not forgetting to vent his anger on the constable, Li Changxiao left with a smile.

However, although this official was miserable, he was not a good person. He was demoted to gild, and the fire burned for three days but he did nothing. When the fire stopped, he brought a few constables to deal with it perfunctorily.

Someone had to make him suffer.

As he headed east, Li Changxiao gradually discovered that Dayu Kingdom was indeed a rich place. The several big cities he passed were all outstanding and lively.

And the people were quite fierce. The spirit of martial arts was everywhere, and martial arts platforms could be seen everywhere.

But on this day.

Li Changxiao came to a rich city called Jianghe City.

He saw a familiar figure there.
