Infinite Immortal Ship

Chapter 44 Ten Years of Unsolved Cases
Lu Yuantong was stunned when he heard the mountain god's words. When he reacted, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​raising his head.

He used the power of the elixir to activate the Heavenly Soul, which connected the Life Soul and the Heavenly Soul. Because the Heavenly Soul was placed in the heaven and earth, he heard the whispers of the Mountain God and Mr. Ji.

If he looked up at this time, he would definitely be discovered by the mountain god. If Mr. Ji became wary because of this, he might not be able to ask a single word next.

It was noon at this time. The young and old of the Ji family had performed divination twice, which also consumed a lot of money. Seeing that there were so many guests, they started to prepare lunch.

In the courtyard, Mr. Ji sat in the middle and began to talk about the past.

"Since Erlang asked, I have nothing to hide!"

"We lived in the mountains a long time ago. There were fruit trees on the mountains, fertile fields in the valleys, wild animals in the mountains, and fish and shrimps in the mountain streams. We lived a free and easy life."

"Twenty-seven years ago, a natural disaster suddenly fell from the sky. It penetrated the membrane of Blessed Land, crossed the mountain peaks, and countless lava and thick smoke fell, destroying several villages on the edge in an instant."

“We live in the middle of the mountains, and we were lucky enough to have the opportunity to escape, but the thick smoke was so thick that people couldn’t even find the east, west, south, and west. Some people slipped and fell to death, some were choked to death, and some ran in the wrong direction and disappeared. "

"At that time, the mountain god was using his divine power to stop the spread of magma. We could only avoid the thick smoke in the valley, but we stopped because of this."

"Everyone is looking forward to the natural disaster ending soon, but they don't know that the magma is surging. Even the Mountain God can't take care of everything. As long as I hear the response from the Mountain God, I feel panic. When the magma is only a few miles away from us, We had to risk our way into the smoke."

“Even if we covered our noses with wet cloths, we were still getting more and more chaotic as we walked. First, many old people got lost, and then many people with children fell behind. Listening to the cries and calls in the thick smoke, I felt the insignificance of human beings. , the ruthlessness of natural disasters.”

"Just when everyone was in despair, there was a sudden surge of thick smoke, and then a strong wind blew. When a giant dragon made of clouds and mist flew past us, I knew that the dragon in the waters of Yanghu Lake The prince is here to save us!"

"The Dragon King summoned the wind and rain, blowing up the thick smoke with God-level magic. Some people were even blown down by the strong wind, but they were not angry, and some were just happy to survive in desperate situations."

"It lasted for several days before the thick smoke disappeared from the sky, but standing on the top of the mountain and looking from a distance, the magma was raging everywhere like monsters, and the entire mountain range became a purgatory on earth."

“… Countless mountain people lost their hometowns and after crying bitterly, they finally left the mountains and integrated into the surrounding areas of Yanghu.”

Looking at Mr. Ji Qingfeng with tears in his eyes, Lu Yuantong fell into great shock.

This mountain range is more than 300 miles wide at its widest point and more than 1000 miles long. It is located in the west and south borders of the blessed land in an arc shape. There are three mountain gods alone.

The territory under the jurisdiction of the other two mountain gods was blocked by natural barriers and giant peaks, so the damage was not serious. Only the territory under the jurisdiction of the mountain god in the southwest was covered by the brunt of the natural disaster, and countless lives were killed and injured.

If the Dragon King of Yanghu hadn't come to the rescue in time, one-tenth of the tens of thousands of mountain people would have been able to escape. In this way, the mountain gods of the southwest should be very grateful to the Dragon King of Yanghu.

According to the Dragon Girl Long Jing, the authority of the Dragon King of Yanghu has been refined by hundreds of generations of Dragon Kings. Even as a minor, she can exert the power of the gods. You can imagine how strong the authority of Yanghu must be in the hands of the Dragon King.

However, this natural disaster covers tens of thousands of square kilometers of mountains. How many billions of tons of magma would be needed to turn such a large mountain range into purgatory? How big must the volcano that caused this natural disaster be?

This should also rule out the possibility of the monks crossing the tribulation and implicating the blessed land.

Just when Lu Yuantong was thinking about how to phrase it, Lu Wansheng suddenly spoke.

Lu Wansheng said in a clear tone: "Grandpa Ji, ten years ago, a tornado suddenly appeared in the waters of Yanghu Lake, and then the five-foot-deep lake disappeared. Could it be that the Dragon King of Yanghu Lake wanted to help the Southwest Mountain God restore this land?" efforts to bring vitality to the mountains?”

As soon as these words came out, Lu Yuantong immediately gave his cousin a thumbs up. This sentence not only hit the point, but also left a lot of room for discussion.

Mr. Ji was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "I didn't expect a little girl like you to see the connection."

"After 17 years of management, this mountain range still has an undercurrent of magma. In order to restore the vitality of the mountain range as soon as possible, the Heavenly Court sent a decree from the gods to ask the Dragon King of Yanghu to use Yanghu water to extinguish the magma in the mountains. This is how the situation of ten years ago came to be. Tornado." "Since then, although there is still a hot soup that corrodes flesh and blood in the mountains, there is finally a trace of life on the mountainside and on the top of the mountain."

"In recent years, many herb collectors have gone to the mountains to collect herbs. This guy Qiao also opened up fields here and planted fruits."

Speaking of this, Mr. Ji sighed. This mountain range, which is about [-] miles long, is the second line of defense besides Blessed Land's own fetal membrane.

Natural disasters have displaced countless mountain people. These mountain people have sacrificed too much for the people around Yanghu.

Therefore, the three counties have properly accepted the more than 8000 surviving mountain residents. Those with ability can hold public office in the city, while those with average ability can make a living as tenants.

So when the people of Yanghu entered the mountains, he helped them as much as possible. When Qiao Jia got lost while collecting medicine, he secretly guided and rescued him.

An ordinary mountain village has a population of four to five hundred; an ordinary village has a population of more than 1000; Ji Qingfeng is the priest of the largest village in the Southwest Mountains, and their village only has a population of more than 2000.

More than 8000 people may not seem like many, but they are actually people who escaped from more than a dozen mountain villages and stockades.

Even so, Yanghu City could not fully accept it, and divided some of it into two surrounding counties. After all, the population of Yanghu City was only [-] or [-].

At this time, Lu Wansheng and Lu Yuantong suddenly looked at each other, nodded, and asked Mr. Ji:

"Before the tornado appeared in Yanghu waters ten years ago, Erlang's parents were transporting goods by boat. After the tornado disappeared, more than 20 people on the boat disappeared. Since Grandpa Ji, you said that Erlang's parents are still alive, these 20 people, Could it be that it was carried deep into the mountains with the lake water?"

"But it's been ten years. No matter how far the journey is, these people should have finished walking. Could it be that they can't find their way home?"

Lu Wansheng's question went straight to the point. If Lu Yuantong hadn't overheard the conversation between the mountain god and Mr. Ji and learned that these people were in a secret realm on the edge of the blessed land, he would have asked such a question.

After hearing Lu Wansheng's question, Mr. Ji's eyes became wandering, obviously he wanted to communicate with the Mountain God.

Seeing this, Lu Yuantong quickly added fuel to the fire.

"Mr. Ji, this matter has troubled our family for ten years. It's time for us to know the answer and find our loved ones!"

Although the original owner's obsession has dissipated today, he is just like what he sang, "Once the obsession is gone, the world will be clear, and the cause and effect of wealth and life will be the same." He will replace the original owner and become Lu Yuantong of the Lu family in Daqiao Township.

This also means that he has to repay his parents' karma.

At this time, Mr. Ji Qingfeng couldn't help but sigh. He had been holding on to a glimmer of hope for ten years, and now it suddenly came to fruition. Everyone wanted to reunite the family.

Just like him, the mountain people were scattered in all directions after the mountain village was destroyed. He also thought that one day he could return to his hometown and reunite with his relatives and friends.

With this in mind, he asked the Southwest Mountain God:

"Master Mountain God, you said that Erlang's parents may be in the secret realm on the edge of the blessed land. Can you use Master Shan's divine power to bring them out and then help them return to their hometown?"

The mountain god suddenly sighed and said in a voice like a heavy mountain: "Ji Qingfeng, that secret realm was carried by the gods sent by the heaven. It was originally used to draw water from Yanghu Lake and then extinguish the magma in the mountains."

At this time, the mountain god suddenly glanced at Lu Yuantong, and there was a distortion in the void, and an ethereal figure appeared.

Judging from its outline, it looks exactly like Lu Yuantong.
