And I went to investigate; the Mother River God had already gone missing before the river changed course.
I checked the files; the Mother River God had issued a warning three months ago.
Unfortunately, the ssage was suppressed by so wretched bastard, who is now dead too.
On the surface, it appears to be suicide, leaving only half a corpse.
Anyway, it's a ss. The river's change of course had a significant impact, and we still can't determine if it's truly stabilized.
The losses are imasurable; just counting the dead, even conservative estimates are in the millions.
These days, the new emperor has sentenced three Dukes to death.
The Beheading Knife of Jinyi Wei is getting dull from all the chopping.
Damn it, how did these people dare?
I personally went to oversee, and I've raided four guardhouses of Jinyi Wei myself.
Among those guys, there wasn't a single innocent person to be found, no wonder I haven't heard any news for years.
If I had reacted any slower, I'd be kneeling in the market square next to the Duke.
Even so, I was fined eighty years' salary.
I haven't seen what a salary looks like for so many years, and these bastards still want to scam .""
Song grew angrier as he spoke, his murderous aura surging up.
Yu Ziqing couldn't help but grimace; Song is truly miserable.
Judging by the situation, Song was about to start receiving his salary again, but now it's all ruined.
The amount of salary isn't important; he doesn't lack money. The important thing is that Song had spoken in advance.
Only to be scamd by the people below at the guardhouse.
He's restrained himself by not chopping a few of the higher-ups to death.
What Song said wasn't far off from what Yu Ziqing guessed.
An unexpected alteration in the Mother River's course couldn't possibly have no signs; it must be a combination of various reasons that led to the final change.
"Did you find any traces of external interference? Or was it just a mix of internal and external factors that completely spiraled out of control?"
"So far, apart from the Mother River God, everything else just looks like ordinary cases.""
Song remained silent.
Soone just did a little sothing to protect their position, perhaps covering up so disadvantageous information.
But there were just too many people doing so, which accumulated and led to the current outco.
"Is the Mother River God missing or dead?"
"From what we can see, just missing, probably not dead. So speculate he fled out of guilt.
What nonsense; if the Mother River God wanted to flee, he wouldn't have warned us in advance.
Besides, the Mother River's problems worsened gradually, not overnight, and he only beca the Mother River God a few days ago.
He still can't fully control the entire Mother River.
No matter how you look for a scapegoat, he wouldn't be executed.
But so far, we can't find the Mother River God anywhere, nor do we have any leads.""
Yu Ziqing thought for a mont and said.
"I just returned from the East Sea; let take a detour to check out the Mother River for you.""
"Then... much obliged." Song cupped his hands; he's really been overwheld recently.
Leaving the Seventh Floor's ring, Yu Ziqing sent out a letter, asking it to be delivered to Dadui.
Small disasters, and then major calamities, tsk, don't these people have any new ideas?
Listening to it all, Yu Ziqing felt an extrely strong sense of déjà vu.
Isn't this just like the path Dadui once took?
But it makes sense; there is nothing new under the sun, no matter how things change, the essence is often the sa.
Have Jia Shisi compile it, the history of Dadui, he needs to examine it properly and predict what might happen next.
Natural disasters, man-made catastrophes, Earth Deity chaos, Devil invasions, all these things are to be expected.
Yu Ziqing entered the Mother River from the estuary, his Flying Boat sinking directly into the water. With a thought, he pinpointed an area above, and the Flying Boat slowly disappeared, entering the Earth Deity Divine Country of the Mother River.
Inside, the chaos surpassed even the outside; the river roared, and everywhere were corpses of various aquatic creatures.
Here, the Divine Country was twisted, seemingly illusory, revealing the old river course and forr estuary.
Constantly contorting, extrely chaotic.
Yu Ziqing soared upstream through the Mother River Divine Country aboard his Flying Boat.
Within the Earth Deity Origin, the sound of the old sages grew steady and grand; no power in the sound waves, yet there's a divine aura, spreading from Yu Ziqing's center.
Wherever it passed, the angry river slowly cald down, the distorted and illusory parts began to return to normal.
Yu Ziqing advanced unhurriedly, following the main stream, traveling upstream, he casually dredged and pacified the Mother River Divine Country.
To prevent it from accumulating chaotic forces again, waiting for the next outburst.
He reached the source of the Mother River Divine Country, standing at the bow of the ship, shaking his head gently.
"Stop hiding, co out, if you can't distinguish between friend and foe now, you're truly dood.""
The river surged, slowly coalescing into a human form, and that form crystallized again, transforming into a man with one leg missing, unkempt beard, pale complexion, seemingly severely weakened.
The man looked at Yu Ziqing; he could naturally recognize Yu Ziqing's face as Qing Ziyu from Jinlan Mountain.
This young face is recognized by anyone in major forces, just to avoid offending soone due to not recognizing them.
Over the years, the number of strong ones who died at the hands of Jinlan Mountain, indirectly died due to Jinlan Mountain, or could be connected to Jinlan Mountain, is more than two hands can count.
Though most deaths were not directly related to Jinlan Mountain, nor was there any resolution even after dying.
