Chapter 33: Flies Following Horses

Chapter 33: A Fly Following a Horse's Tail Can Travel a Thousand Miles

Looking at the well-prepared Dragon King of Dafangtang Pond, Gu Yunli nodded secretly and bowed, saying, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Long!"

"Brother Gu is too polite."

The Dragon King of the Pond was flattered. He hurried to the well, picked up the water jar and tilted it to pour water. Immediately, spring water flowed out of the jar and fell into the well in the underworld.

At the same time, a wave of magical power rippled out and opened the Yin-Yang portal.

Suddenly, gurgling spring water emerged from the bottom of the well in the world of the living.

"Hey, there's water, there's water!"

"Great!"

"It scared me to death."

The villagers gathered around the well were so excited when they saw the water suddenly being drawn that they shouted loudly.

Ten miles are rugged and half a mile is flat, nine mountains, a little water and one acre of farmland.

This sentence refers to the barrenness of the soil and water in Tianan. Now that the well water has been recovered, how can everyone not be extremely excited?
"The God of Land has appeared!"

"Thank you, God of Land, for showing your magical powers and saving people from suffering!"

In the crowd, Feng Xiulan and Dao Grandma shouted, which attracted the villagers' response and gratitude.

Gu Yunli, who saw this scene, didn't take it seriously, but he still gave Bu Shansheng a look of approval, which made Bu Shansheng's old face turn red and he was very excited.

"Brother Gu, the situation is not good. The water veins here have shifted and cannot hold water at all. The spring water we have now is just a drop in the bucket. I'm afraid it can only last for three to five days."

King Chi Long looked at Gu Yunli with a serious expression.

“Is there a solution?”

"If we want to cure the root cause, we must rearrange the water veins. My magic power is low, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to continue. However, I know a few friends. If they work together, it shouldn't be a problem."

"Then I'll trouble Brother Long to invite all the heroes to help. If you need anything, just let us know." Gu Yunli said with a fist salute.

"Brother Gu, you are too polite. I will invite them to help me right away."

As the Dragon King of Dafangtang Pond said this, he quickly chanted an incantation and logged onto the Internet to call for help.

I felt both excited and proud.

——His friends have long wanted to meet Gu Bogong. Unfortunately, they didn't have the right opportunity. Today, they found a good excuse to bring him here, earning favors from both sides. It's really great!
At the same time, several figures came rushing from a distance, and it seemed that they were the land of Liujiagou, Dajing Village, and Nanpo Township.

"Mr. Gu, what happened?"

The landowner of Liujiagou came closer and immediately clasped his fists and asked.

Gu Yunli gave a brief introduction and said at the end: "Gu has only been in office as land officer for a few months. His experience and qualifications are far inferior to yours. I hope you can help me."

The land gods responded enthusiastically:

"Mr. Gu, you are too kind!", "As colleagues, how can we just stand by and watch!", "Mr. Gu, rest assured, we will live up to your trust."

After inspection by the land gods, the problem of the disordered earth veins was quickly found.

However, there was an accident with the branch of the earth vein coming from Laozhu Mountain. As long as we straighten out the root and treat the source, the remaining branches can be sorted out carefully and be fine.

After finding the problem, the local gods immediately got to work without saying a word.

At the same time, Chi Longwang's relatives and friends also arrived one after another, all of them were scaly insect monsters.

With the busy work of the hairy gods, the land veins and water veins of Tianan Village were repaired in just half a night.

Even three points better than before.

But it was redesigned after brainstorming.

Gu Yunli just stood by and watched the whole process. It was not because he was lazy, but because these people did not allow it, so he simply stopped interfering.

After everything was completed, Gu Yunli bowed and said, "Today's matter is thanks to all of you for your help. I have already prepared a banquet, and I would like to invite you all to move to the underground palace to have a drink and chat."

Everyone was overjoyed and was about to respond when an untimely voice suddenly came.

"Wait a minute!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a ghost appearing out of nowhere. "Nie Tai?" [Chapter 20]

Bu Shansheng, who was following behind Gu Yunli, was surprised when he saw the newcomer and quickly explained:
"Master Gu, this person is Nie Tai, the chief guardian of our sect."

At this time, Nie Tai also stepped out from the crowd and saluted:
"Master Gu, the disorder of the earth veins is a man-made disaster, not a natural disaster. Please investigate it carefully!"

That confident look made Bu Shansheng look unfriendly... This kid actually dared to report to a higher level, is he trying to win favor?
Gu Yunli had no expression on his face: "Why do you think so?"

Nie Tai bowed and said, "Let Master Gu know that I was born with the innate magical power [Smell and Identify Objects], which allows me to smell scents that are difficult for ordinary people to detect. I discovered that there was a strange demonic aura in the branch coming from Laozhu Mountain, and it lasted no more than a day. Considering the time when the ground vein incident occurred, I have reason to believe that this is a man-made disaster. I hope Master Gu will understand!"

After the voice fell, everyone looked at each other, all with a look of surprise and doubt.

Gu Yunli looked at the land gods and asked, "What do you think?"

The local gods looked at each other, not daring to draw conclusions. After all, if they had noticed something unusual, they would have reported it long ago. Precisely because they hadn't noticed it, they didn't dare to say anything, fearing that they would lose face because they were not as skilled as others.

It was the God of Land of Liujiagou who stood up:

"To be honest with you, Master Gu, I have a shallow cultivation base and have not found any traces of human intervention. However, this situation is not impossible. He was able to disrupt the branch veins of Old Candle Mountain and avoid Master Gu's sight. This person's magical power must not be underestimated. With such magical power, why should we embarrass Master Gu? Maybe he just passed by unintentionally."

Gu Yunli narrowed his eyes and nodded after a while: "That makes sense."

Then he looked at Nie Tai and said, "Thank you, Brother Nie, for your concern."

As he spoke, he snapped his fingers and sent out a wisp of incense.

Nie Tai looked at the flying incense and was filled with disappointment.

What he wanted was not incense and offerings, but the promotion of close ministers.

However, under the circumstances, he could not refuse and could only accept it.

After the matter was settled, Gu Yunli immediately invited everyone to move to the underground palace to drink and have fun.

As a close minister of Gu Yunli and having made meritorious contributions, Bu Shansheng also went with them. Before leaving, he deliberately stayed behind and said to Nie Tai meaningfully:
"Brother Nie is really capable. I have known you for such a long time, but I didn't know you had such an innate magical power!"

"I dare not show off my humble skills, for fear of being laughed at."

"Really? But no one is more flamboyant than you today!"

Nie Tai was stunned and was just thinking about how to respond when Bu Shansheng put on a smile and caught up with the crowd.

Soon, Nie Tai was the only one left outside Tianan Village.

His face looked ugly.

He had observed many of Gu Bogong's deeds and thought he was a wise king, but he didn't expect that he would actually be so lucky.

How pathetic!

Forget it, now Bu Shansheng can no longer tolerate him, maybe it’s time to leave.

Thinking of this, Nie Tai sighed, turned around and was about to leave, but when he caught a glimpse of the towering underground palace in the distance, his unwillingness arose again.

Internet communication is becoming more widespread, and the recent craze for opera is a clear example of this.

Are you willing to accept the loss of this opportunity?

Not reconciled!

A fly following a horse can travel a thousand miles!
Mr. Gu was just deceived by the villain. If there was evidence in front of him, he would definitely look at him with a higher opinion.

Thinking of this, Nie Tai's heart moved, and he ran straight to the broken branch. He planned to find the murderer himself.

However, this is not an easy task.

Just as the land god of Liujiagou said, if this was man-made, this person's cultivation must be far superior to Gu Yunli's, otherwise it would be impossible for everyone to fail to notice the abnormality.

Even if he relied on his ability of [Smell and Identify Objects] and sensed something strange, he could not guarantee that it was true.

Maybe it was just a monster passing by?

However, since it concerns his future, he has to investigate no matter how difficult it is.
