Chapter 672: Sure enough, the disease
In ancient times, those who were called celestial foxes were considered to be all-knowing people.
The celestial fox is born with nine tails. Those who practice the Nine-Tailed Method, the Heaven-reaching Method, the Purple Immortal Method, the Red Line Method and other Taoist methods are all exploring the mysteries of the ancient celestial fox.
Gong Mengbi does not have the abilities of the ancient celestial fox, nor does he hold any office in heaven, so from any perspective, he cannot be considered a celestial fox.
However, he has now made some achievements in the ways of immortals and gods. Even if he does not rely on the spirit gods, he can still pray silently to him with only an object to rely on.
After bidding farewell to Master Liu, Gong Mengbi did not rush back to Taihu Lake, but instead traveled freely in Suzhou.
The King of Wu had done something major. The Jiangnan court had already been secretly controlled by the King of Wu. At a banquet, under the influence of alcohol, the King of Wu announced that he would no longer pay taxes to the court and would instead recruit troops for war.
Naturally, no one objected to this turbulent banquet, instead praising the King of Wu's reputation. The Great Emperor's aggressive military campaign and heavy taxes had left the people in unbearable suffering. He also argued that the growing bandit problem made conscription and preparation for war all but inevitable.
Although there was no open establishment, the rebellious intentions were no longer concealed.
He had already deliberately spread the news long before the King of Wu revealed his purpose.
All the Jiangnan officials had received invitations to the banquet, and they had a rough idea of what was about to happen. Those who were willing to attend were naturally offering their services as a token of loyalty, while others, despite being invited, disappeared the next day for various reasons.
In the waning days of Dagan, the first wild dragon was finally born.
Although it is just a sick dragon, if the Human King can give birth to the first sick dragon, he will be able to give birth to the second and third. Sooner or later, he will give birth to a monster that is strong enough to devour himself and become a new real dragon.
The movement of stars and the change of constellations, and the emergence of dragons and snakes from land are all just like this.
When Gong Mengbi first looked at the King of Wu's fate, he thought it was as dazzling as the red sun, which was intimidating.
But now that a sick dragon has been born from this majestic destiny, it is inevitable that people will feel a little regretful.
Gong Mengbi was particularly heartbroken, sighing, "How pitiful. Losing the support of the gods and ghosts, and also losing the favor and destiny of heaven, forcing himself to transform into a dragon is indeed a disease."
The fox wiped away non-existent tears. She had no psychological burden towards the sick dragon and did not owe him anything.
It wasn't that the fox was cruel, but rather that he had witnessed the evil spirits snatching souls during the flood in Wuning County. At that time, the King of Wu was weak and the people were no longer his own, so he reversed yin and yang and seized the souls of the living for his own use.
Gong Mengbi did not think that such a person had the qualities of a king. Anyone with a conscience would step on him, not to mention that he was a good fox who practiced the ways of the Goddess of Mount Tai, so he had to put in a lot of effort.
Not to mention that in the human race, dragon fighting has always been the case that those who are righteous will have many supporters, while those who are unrighteous will have few. It is not the case that those who have many supporters will gain the righteousness, while those who have few will lose the righteousness. Anyone who uses ghosts and gods to fight for the dragon will be denounced as an evil way.
Once this forbidden loophole is opened, no matter what immortals or gods there are, they will have to interfere in the human world. That would not be a blessing, but a catastrophic disaster. In the evolution of yin and yang, if it weren't for the bitter consequences and bizarre counterexamples, how could there be so many heavenly rules and regulations?
Now that the King of Wu's fate had transformed into a sick dragon, he had no choice but to do so. His conspiracy had been exposed, and he had originally relied on gods and ghosts to cover it up, but with the Five Gods slain, the Great City God apprehended, and the City God of the World personally visiting Jiangnan, there was no way he could keep it secret any longer.
The King of Wu knew the Emperor very well. Now that there was no turning back, he might as well go all out and rebel while the Saint of Law was dominating Beiyuan and the imperial court was preoccupied with itself. It was still unknown who would be the winner in the end.
Gong Mengbi walked in and out of the palace gate as if he was in an empty place.
If he had done this before, he would have easily been noticed by the spirits and gods. But now that King Wu had lost the support of the spirits and gods, and the new City God of Gusu had not yet taken office, the suppression of the sick dragon alone was not enough to stop him.
After coming out of Prince Wu's Mansion, Gong Mengbi had a rough idea in his mind, so he returned to Taihu Lake leisurely and concentrated on meditating on the Taihu God in Taihu Lake.
He just learned about the wonders of immortals from the goddess. Now, holding the Taihu Lake magic weapon, he can understand the wonders even more, and understand the similarities and differences between the immortals and gods in using Feng Shui to nurture the people.
Tie Chen took advantage and came to seek advice every day, but the more he asked, the more he felt that Gong Mengbi was unfathomable. Although he was a fox fairy, he had a deep understanding of the ways of water gods and water fairies.
When I came back one day, there was a moment when I was surprised to find that Gong Mengbi seemed to be wearing a red robe, with the myriad images of Taihu Lake flowing behind him, a real dragon flying in the mysterious light, and water virtue nurturing people.
But in the next moment, he turned into the smiling immortal again, as if everything he saw was an illusion.
Tie Chen was suspicious and thought he must have seen it wrong. Otherwise, how could someone be recognized by the Taihu God and become the Taihu Water God without even receiving an official position?
Taihu God has experienced many water gods, but this situation has never happened before.
Gong Mengbi noticed that he was distracted, so he suddenly came close to him and asked, "What are you daydreaming about?"
Tiechen was so frightened that he dared not be distracted anymore.
A few days later, the water god of the Yangtze River Dragon Palace controlled the river and came to escort the dragon boat. The sailors of the Dragon Palace were sent to the Taihu Lake Water Palace, which frightened the entire Taihu Lake people into panic, thinking that a disaster was about to happen.
Gong Mengbi stepped forward to greet them. In addition to the Yangtze River Dragon Girl and the Qiantang Dragon Son, there was also a middle-aged man with a mustache on the dragon boat.
Xia Gu introduced, "This is Prime Minister Ao of my Dragon Palace. My father asked the Prime Minister to preside over the case of the old dragon of Taihu Lake."
Prime Minister Ao and Gong Mengbi greeted each other, handed over the Taihu God, and took over the power of leadership.
Prime Minister Ao carefully sealed the deity, unlike Gong Mengbi who was careless and tried to comprehend the secrets in it at will.
Han Zhang was free from worries, but Xia Gu had to follow Prime Minister Ao around and do his errands. She could only watch the two of them slacking off with tears in her eyes.
Seeing such a big scene, Gong Mengbi asked Hanzhang the reason.
Han Zhang whispered, "My brother-in-law said that a great catastrophe is approaching, and the water gods will inevitably be affected. He wants to use the incident of the old dragon in Taihu Lake as an example to warn the other gods in the water palace."
"No wonder." Gong Mengbi took a look at the scene and said, "Could it be that there will be a public trial in Taihu Lake?"
Han Zhang nodded and said, "My brother-in-law said that since he is stirring up trouble on the throne of Taihu Lake, he should be punished for what he has gained. I'm afraid he will be executed in Taihu Lake as a sacrifice to the water veins of Taihu Lake."
Gong Mengbi's brows twitched as he said, "The Golden Dragon King is truly decisive. If he were to use the wrath of thunder, I'm afraid the Yangtze River God would have to think twice in the future."
Han Zhang laughed and said, "My father admires him for a reason."
