Chapter 505: A Messy Dayu

Under the cover of night, Li Changxiao buried the corpse of Gushan Land God, and then used his hand to make a spell to cover up all traces of the battle. Except for Li Changxiao and Wang Ruyi, no one knew that on this ordinary night, two incense gods who were worshipped and respected by countless people died silently.

Wang Ruyi's eyes sparkled, and she thought it was very handsome. When Zhang Long and Zhao Hu killed people, she only felt bloody and nauseous. However, watching Li Changxiao kill people, she felt poetic and free and artistic, especially the long sword slashing and cutting, with a hint of meaning that she couldn't explain.

However, even though her heart was turbulent, she looked obedient, following behind Li Changxiao, not daring to make a sound to disturb the man's contemplation.

Before his death, the land god of Gushan revealed a few useful clues. Therefore, Jihua River, Gushan, and Xifeng Mountain near Fuyu City all belong to the West Land and are under the jurisdiction of the West God. They are only more than 70 miles away from the land in Mengze City. Li Changxiao once passed by this city.

Therefore, the land god of Gushan knew something about the tragedy of the destruction of the city.

I especially remember the mountain eagle that was as big as a mountain.

Once such a giant creature spreads its wings and flies, its body is bigger than an ordinary town. Just imagine how loud the noise made by such a creature when it flies over your head will be?

Then the question is, how can such a giant beast stand in the post road of Mengze City without being noticed by gods and ghosts, pretending to be a towering mountain and pecking at passers-by?

Of course, it is inseparable from the assistance of the gods of mountains and rivers, and in order to survive, the land god of Gushan gave Li Changxiao the route of the mountain eagle that he knew.

The mountain eagle spread its wings and flew, passing by Heshan Mountain and crossing Hejiang River. Gushan Landlord knew something about it, because the mountain eagle had flown over his territory. Based on his understanding of the terrain, he deduced that the mountain eagle must have passed by Jihua River, crossed Qingfeng Ridge, and crossed Changxue Peak.

Going back, it must have crossed Baishulin and then arrived at the destination, Mengze City.

Li Changxiao also asked why he gave way to the mountain eagle and why he helped it hide its tracks. Gushan Landlord avoided the main point and said that he was just a beggar, how dare he risk his life for this matter.

Li Changxiao did not keep him.

He did not pursue it yet. There was some truth in this person's words, and some lies. Even his behavior was worthy of the word "evil god". It didn't matter to him if he was left in the world, but it was a disaster for the people.

Apart from these. Li Changxiao followed the clues and found that the land god of Gushan had thirteen houses in Fuyu City. Each of them was a deep mansion. He was not only a fairy worshipped by the people, but also a big landlord in the surrounding area.

After hundreds of years of development, the incense god has already derived many branches. Silver and money also carry some public opinion. Some incense gods accept the incense of the people, but still make a lot of money behind the scenes. Money is useless to them, but the public opinion it contains is extremely useful. The "incense god technique" can be measured with money.

Let's not talk about public opinion.

Money can also build temples for oneself and increase incense income. There are no harms. This is why the land god of Gushan made a lot of money, annexed land, blackmailed the people, caused locust plagues and droughts, causing farmers to have no harvest, and then bought land.

All kinds of behaviors... can be clearly recorded in the bill. Of course, the specific process of these things will not be recorded, but the amount on the bill can explain many problems.

Therefore, no matter from which angle, Li Changxiao has no burden in killing Gushan Land.

"Sacrifice?"

Li Changxiao frowned slightly.

Because he killed Gushan Land, in order to find clues, Li Changxiao searched through his thirteen mansions one by one.

Gushan's land god was given a simple name in Fuyu City, Liu Dafu. He likes to repair temples, not only his own, but also Huajiang Water God, Xi Shenjun... and many other temples. He can be seen. It can also be regarded as building relationships.

When he walked to a mansion and looked through the accounts, Li Changxiao made another discovery. In the bill, there is a very stable expenditure every month, and the amount is not small.

After experiencing the affairs of the Beggar Gang, Li Changxiao knew very well that the beggar disaster in Dayu was not light, and he immediately thought that Liu Dafu, the land god of Gushan, was very likely to purchase people for a long time.

"Ruyi, what do you think of the Beggars' Gang in Dayu?" Li Changxiao closed the bill and blew out the lights.

Wang Ruyi leaned against him, her body pressed against him. She was not afraid, but she just liked it. However, on the surface, she pretended to be afraid.

"Beggars' Gang?" Wang Ruyi frowned. "Speaking of the Beggars' Gang gives me a headache. This gang is like a cancer and it is hard to stop."

"Nearly 80% of the missing and abducted cases in Dayu are almost all caused by the Beggars' Gang. For this reason, I have cracked down on it severely and even sent out the army."

"But the effect is very small, and... I suspect that the Beggars' Gang has a subtle connection with the incense gods."

"Oh?" Li Changxiao became interested and cast his eyes on Wang Ruyi.

After the charming woman took off her body-covering robe, she ushered in a new life. Her expression was lively and cheerful, and she was also a little noble.

I don't know if she has always been like this. But if you count her age, Wang Ruyi is not young. She is 26 years old, which is the most prosperous and charming age.

Wang Ruyi replied: "Let me ask you, where do homeless beggars usually stay?"

Li Changxiao was so smart that he understood what he meant in an instant. He replied: "A ruined temple?"

"Yes." Wang Ruyi said: "Dayu has many mountains, rivers and temples. Although the court does not encourage it, the trend of building temples has never stopped."

"It seems that if you build a temple, your life will be smooth sailing. As time goes by, the number of abandoned temples has also increased."

"Those abandoned temples form a big net, almost covering Dayu..."

Wang Ruyi stopped talking.

Speaking of this, she felt sad. She had drafted the "Temple Limitation Law" to standardize the temples in cities, towns, and villages, limiting the number to a certain level, and prohibiting private temples.

But it had little effect.

In the current situation, the temples that are built are either for the gods in the mountains or for the dirty men on the street. How ironic and helpless.

Dayu's situation is hard to see again in the Lingtian Dynasty. In the final analysis, the reason is that the Lingtian Dynasty was born from the Immortal Dynasty, and the laws between mountains and rivers are even more stringent.

Another point is that the mountain and water gods of the Lingtian Dynasty, the Chitian Dynasty, and the Litian Dynasty are generally of higher quality. Li Changxiao has traveled to many countries.

Such a complex situation is also the only one seen at this moment, like a tangled mess.
