Rushui Mansion is a famous water house in Taiyi Prefecture. It has ample water, fertile soil, and rich products. It is the two extreme ends of Chengyang Mansion, which is poor and remote.
After leaving Taiyang Mansion, Gu Huangyan came to this mansion known as the rich land of wealth and prosperity, wanting to know whether Rushui Mansion's products were rich enough to deserve its reputation.
But before she could feel the customs and customs of Rushui Mansion, she was rejected.
The first city I went to was on lockdown!
All the city gates are closed and the defensive array is opened. People cannot see the scene inside the city. They can only see the closed city gates and the notices posted around them.
[This city is temporarily closed, and non-locals are temporarily prohibited from entering]
Near the city gate, there were some people from the law enforcement team standing there, looking like they were facing a formidable enemy.
If you want to enter the city, unless you have a way to prove that you are a city resident, even if you are a special person, you will not be able to enter.
No, it should be said that if you are a special person, it will be more difficult to get in and you will need to undergo more stringent inspections.
Of course, this little hindrance is nothing to Gu Huangyan. She has many ways to sneak into the city easily.
But she didn't do this because she could detect the existence of gods in this closed city.
These gods are not far from the city gate, always observing people entering the city.
However, the strength of these gods is not strong. Gu Huangyan can detect them, but they cannot detect Gu Huangyan.
This made Gu Huangyan very confused as to what happened that made a city choose to close down.
Could it be that other gods have taken a liking to this city and want to eliminate the original gods?
Or have you discovered evil spirits?
After thinking for a while, Gu Huangyan gave up his plan to enter the city.
She came here to look for ingredients, not to cause trouble. Since this city is not open, she would just change to another city.
But what Gu Huangyan didn't expect was that the same situation would occur in the next few cities.
Everyone is on lockdown!
Regardless of whether it is a big city or a small city, the city gates are tightly closed and people are restricted from entering.
This made Gu Huangyan feel something was wrong.
What happened to Rushui Mansion?
If Chu Ci were here, he would definitely be unable to restrain his curiosity and sneak into the city to investigate the news.
But Gu Huangyan didn't know how. As long as the fire didn't reach her door, she didn't care, so she turned around and left.
After being rejected several times, Gu Huangyan finally found a city in a slightly remote place that was not closed - Yagu City.
To be precise, Nha Valley City is not completely closed.
The other gates of the city are closed, but one gate is left open for entry and exit.
However, unlike other closed cities, Nha Valley City does not impose restrictions on outsiders, and a large number of people enter and exit the city gate.
Gu Huangyan also successfully entered Nha Gu City through this city gate.
Nha Valley City is a small town near a mountain. The level of products in the city can only be considered average. The only thing that is relatively famous is their specialty crop, Nha Valley.
This grain is rich in oil and can be used to extract cooking oil, or it can be used as a staple dish after being slightly processed. It is considered a product with very local characteristics.
Guhuangyan is planning to buy some buds to go back and enrich his edible oil store.
But before she finished buying, a figure appeared in front of her.
"Which god are you?"
Looking at the girl who suddenly appeared in front of her, Gu Huangyan frowned slightly.
"Who are you?"
"If I remember correctly, I was the one who asked the question first, right?" The girl looked wary: "You come to my city and ask me who I am. This is not the way to pretend to be stupid."
"So you are the patron saint of Yagu City." Gu Huangyan suddenly realized: "Don't worry, I'm just passing by to buy some things, I'm not here to compete with you for the city's believers."
"Put this matter aside for now. Don't change the subject. Answer my question quickly! Who are you and why have I never seen you in Rushui Mansion?"
Seeing that the girl seemed to have a tendency to take action, Gu Huangyan said helplessly: "It's normal that you haven't seen me before. I am the god of Chengyang Mansion, and I just came to Rushui Mansion these days."
As a god who carries out "house" to the end, Gu Huangyan has never been out of Chengyang Mansion a few times in his life, and mostly hangs around Jiuge City.
Not to mention that the gods of Rushui Mansion have never seen her, not even the gods of Chengyang Mansion know of her existence.
Hearing the words "Chengyang Mansion", the girl's face softened slightly, but she still said warily: "Which city in Chengyang Mansion is it? Is there anything to prove it?"
"Are you asking a question or checking your household registration? Why should I answer you?" Gu Huangyan was a little dissatisfied.
"If you don't answer, then I have no choice but to be rude to you!" The divine power in the girl's body slowly rose, looking like she was ready to go.
The girl's attitude also aroused Gu Huangyan's anger, and she was about to start a fight, but after seeing the people walking around, she suppressed her anger and snorted coldly: "I can only tell you that I come from Jiuge City in Chengyang Mansion.
, if you want to prove it, no!”
"Chengyang Mansion...Jiuge City..." The girl frowned slightly, carefully searching for the memory of Jiuge City in her mind.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up: "Is it the Jiuge City that protects the temple?"
Gu Huangyan said in surprise: "Do you know about the Guardian Temple?"
Is Chu Ci's fame so great that even Rushui Mansion knows about it?
"Of course, everyone in Rushui Mansion knows that if you want to do business in Chengyang Mansion, it is best to go to Jiuge City. It will not only provide you with a good platform, but also protect your caravan from monsters.
Beast attacks.”
Gu Huangyan was a little surprised that the temple's business had expanded to this extent?
"Wait a minute, you said you are the god of Jiuge City, are you the guardian star god?" The girl's eyes lit up.
Gu Huangyan's face darkened: "The Guardian Star God is a man! Which of your eyes looks like a man to me!"
The girl looked at Gu Huangyan's majestic chest and felt a little discouraged: "You are not."
But she soon realized: "Then you said you are the god of Jiuge City? Are you lying to me?!"
Seeing that the girl wanted to take action again, Gu Huangyan also became angry: "Who told you that a city with a temple cannot have other gods?"
The girl was stunned.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that there is indeed no such rule.
It's just that if there is a god in the city who becomes the righteous god, other gods will see the opportunity and leave, so as not to cause the righteous god to be dissatisfied by robbing believers.
Few righteous gods would allow other gods to live in the same city.
Unless the city is very large, or it is not the main believer city of this righteous god.
This made the girl hesitate, wondering whether she should trust Gu Huangyan.
But judging from Gu Huangyan's appearance, it doesn't look like she's lying.
If you really want to lie to her, just make up any other city. Why choose Jiuge City?
Thinking of this, the girl's face softened slightly: "Then I will believe you for the time being."
"Then I really want to thank you!" Gu Huangyan said through gritted teeth.
If this wasn't someone else's territory, she wouldn't have answered so patiently.
After all, Gu Huangyan is still not familiar with his current identity.
If she revealed the name of her God of Cookery, the god in front of her would definitely not ask any more questions.
The girl didn't know that the god in front of her was actually a righteous god. She was still thinking: "You said you, a god from Chengyang Mansion, why did you come to our Rushui Mansion? Chengyang Mansion is not close to here either.
Ah, you can’t just take a walk here, can you?”
Gu Huangyan was speechless, raised her forehead and said, "Didn't I say that at the beginning? I'm here to buy things."
"Buying something? What to buy?" the girl asked curiously.
"Well, this is it." Gu Huangyan took out a bag of grains from his arms.
"Ya Gu?" The girl was stunned, pointing to the grain in Gu Huangyan's hand, and said in disbelief: "You came here just for this thing?"
"What, is there any problem?" Gu Huangyan took the things back.
"No, you can buy this thing anytime, why do you have to come here at this time." The girl's eyes widened.
Gu Huangyan raised an eyebrow: "Since you can buy it anytime, can't I buy it now?"
Seeing that Gu Huangyan really thought so, the girl had a strange expression: "Let me ask first, have you just come to Rushui Mansion not long ago?"
"yes."
"You don't know what happened in Rushui Mansion recently?"
"whats the matter?"
Seeing Gu Huangyan's confused look, the girl sighed.
"I really don't know whether it's better to say that you are fearless if you don't know, or that it's better to say that stupid people are blessed."
Gu Huangyan:......
"What happened in Rushui Mansion?" Gu Huangyan frowned slightly."
The girl pondered for a while, then looked around and said, "This is not the right place to talk about this matter. Let's move to another place."
After saying that, the girl turned and left.
Gu Huangyan thought for a moment and followed.
After a while, the two came to a small courtyard near the foot of the mountain.
When Gu Huangyan's eyes moved, she could detect that there was a thin transparent barrier outside the small courtyard.
The girl opened the barrier with ease and entered the courtyard.
"Come in, this is a secret residence of mine, even my followers don't know about it."
Gu Huangyan entered the other courtyard and observed the environment.
This is a very simple small courtyard. In addition to the other courtyard, there are also two large houses.
The environment is quiet and the scenery is pleasant. It can be regarded as a first-class residence in any city.
"How's it going? Not bad, right?"
The girl looked proud. She had worked hard to respond to the wishes of the believers and had saved up nearly a hundred years to buy this.
She has already thought about it. When she obtains the divine status and becomes a true god, she will transform this place into a temple.
Gu Huangyan said expressionlessly: "Generally, your house doesn't have a kitchen."
"We are gods and we don't need to eat, so why do we need a kitchen?" The girl didn't care: "When you are greedy, you can just order takeout."
"That kind of food is soulless!"
"I'm sorry, I only have a spirit, not a soul."
Gu Huangyan suddenly felt that this girl might be able to get along well with Chu Ci.
"By the way, I almost forgot to introduce myself." The girl extended her hand generously: "The protective spirit of Yagu City, Ziyuan."
"Gu Huangyan." Gu Huangyan stretched out his hand and shook it lightly.
"Gu Huangyan...why does this name sound familiar to me?" Ziyuan lowered her head and pondered.
"Don't worry about this for now. What are you talking about just now? Why do you say now?"
"Oh, that's it." Ziyuan reacted and said, "A big event happened in Rushui Mansion recently."
"The gods of four cities have fallen!"
Ziyuan's first words shocked Gu Huangyan.
After Ziyuan's explanation, Gu Huangyan understood what happened.
A month ago, a major earthquake occurred in a border city of Rushui Prefecture. Many houses in the city collapsed.
Earthquakes are normal, but it's strange that after this earthquake, no gods came out to save the city.
Although it seems a little inappropriate to say it, this kind of sudden natural disaster is the time when God's grace can best be demonstrated.
As long as the gods come forward, perform miracles, and save people's lives from earthquakes, they can gain many believers at once.
But not this time. From the beginning to the end of the earthquake, not a single god appeared.
Unlike Chengyang Prefecture, Rushui Mansion has very frequent exchanges between cities, and other cities soon learned about the situation in this border city.
This confused the gods of other cities, so they came to the border city to investigate the situation, and made a surprising discovery.
The god of this border city has disappeared!
All gods are outside this city!
Originally, this was not a strange thing. After all, the gods were not always in the city. Occasionally they would go out for a walk, visit friends, etc.
But this border city has five protecting gods!
Can't all five gods go out for a walk?
So these gods carefully investigated the situation in the city, but unfortunately they found no clues.
It wasn't until the second city that this situation also occurred, and the entire city's gods disappeared.
This made the other gods unable to sit still. Some gods even wondered whether an evil god had appeared in Rushui Mansion, or whether a big demon had come to their Rushui Mansion.
But no matter how suspicious they were, the situation continued.
The third victim city appeared.
But this time, the gods were no longer blind, because a god escaped from the third victim city.
Only then did the gods know what had happened.
Godslayer!
A group of very powerful humans who hunt gods!
When the news came out, many gods were in disbelief and thought that this god was talking nonsense.
But in the face of the facts, they had to believe it.
This group of humans who call themselves god-killers really have the ability to kill gods. According to the surviving gods, there were about twenty humans who attacked them at that time, and six of them were about as powerful as their gods.
The gods of Rushui Mansion were shocked and angry at the same time, so some gods united and wanted to kill these god-killers.
But when they united, the group of god-killers disappeared again.
No matter how hard they searched, they could not find any trace of these god-slayers, even if they had portraits provided by the surviving gods.
Just when the gods thought that these people had left Rushui Mansion, the God Killer appeared again.
This time, they appeared in Zhenghu City, a large city in Rushui Mansion.
