Yefutidaolu

Chapter 41 Come forward
After searching for a whole day, Baishan Jiang Guicheng couldn't find any official named Gao Jian.

In fact, he could also think of it.

There is no aristocratic family with the surname Gao in Cangzhou.

If there were no aristocratic family with the surname Gao, there would probably be no officials with the surname Gao.

But the other clues were difficult to handle, so he still hoped to find the person directly in Cangzhou.

He was ready to leave because he had already instructed his subordinates to start investigating from other directions, and now he didn't know where they had tracked down.

This revenge must be avenged!

He has tens of thousands of descendants, but only a few of them are successful. Qingshui River Bo has a rare atavistic bloodline, a golden shell, and some of the characteristics of the legendary "Golden Turtle".

The Golden Aurora has a dragon-like head and tail, a turtle-like body, and is golden all over. According to legend, the giant turtle carrying the Penglai Fairy Island is the Golden Aurora, which has the beautiful reputation of "The Golden Aurora is pressed down by the main hall of Penglai, and the red sun rises over the blue sea."

Although this is not the real golden turtle, even if it only has some of its characteristics, it can still inherit his legacy. In the future, it will definitely achieve something in the Baishanjiang water tribe.

but……

Just die.

He was killed by a kid passing by.

What mistake did he make?!
Clearly he had followed his usual instructions, honestly protecting the river's water transport, driving the fish to the fishing boats, allowing them to have calm seas and a good catch.

There was nothing wrong with what He Bo did. He only collected about ten blood meals a year and never offended anyone.

Turtles practice slowly and need to take their time.

He's done everything, why kill him?!

When Gui Cheng thought of this, he felt his blood boiling.

However, at this moment, a loud voice came from the sky: "The wise opinion of the people at that time--"

In an instant, surprise flooded his mind.

Without any time to think, his Dharma image rose directly.

The phantom of a giant turtle floated above the capital of Cangzhou!
The thousand-year-old demon turtle has five colors. The male one has two bones on its forehead that look like horns. There are words on its back, all of which are bird seal characters. This is the text of the tortoise calendar. In ancient times, a complete set of exercises and strange stories were even engraved on the back of a divine turtle, which was called "Luo Shu" or "Turtle Book". It was a natural and innate method, which shows the magical power of turtles.

Gao Jian grasped the hilt of the knife and stared in amazement.

The giant turtle roared:

"Great idea!!!"

Gao Jian was startled and woke up from his daze!
what? !

A terrifying sound was heard, Gao Jian immediately drew his sword, stabbed it into the ground, and supported his body!

Even so, he still felt dizzy, his blood was boiling, his eyes were red, his blood vessels were bulging, and his whole body seemed to be blown up by this roar!
A lot of Qi and blood flowed out of the Danzhong acupoint, filling his limbs and bones, allowing his vital energy to protect his body at this moment. The incense smell also began to attach to his body, giving his flesh a bit of dark gold, which kept flashing.

As the roar ended, Gao Jian opened his eyes, glared at the giant turtle in front of him, and shouted loudly: "Old turtle! How dare you kill me?!"

The giant turtle growled angrily!

However, he actually stopped and did not dare to take another step forward.

Because he saw the piece of paper, the Shangshu seal on it, and also saw that all the masters from the human race’s government were gathered here.

Only then did he react belatedly.

This brilliant idea came from someone invited by the Shangshu. The Divine Dynasty now has some accumulated problems, which has allowed forces like Baishanjiang to rise slightly, but it is only in Cangzhou.

Shangshu was a high-ranking official in the center of the Divine Dynasty. He hesitated for a moment, not daring to really kill the other party, but he couldn't swallow this breath. So, he growled and said, "Higher opinion, and all the gentlemen present, I will seek justice for my grandson!"

"As the Lord of the Baishan River, he works diligently and is respected by all the people. He is dedicated to the public good. There is no one in the entire river who does not respect and love him. Gao Jian, you act recklessly and kill the righteous gods canonized by the Divine Dynasty. What is your intention? Do you want to betray the Divine Dynasty's trust and kill the righteous gods?"

Takami looked around.

Those people who appeared earlier all watched quietly without saying a word.

It was obvious that they were just like the old turtle, intimidated by the Shangshu Seal and now didn't know what to do.

So, let them express their views.

So Gao Jian said, "How can a demon who eats people be fair? He eats young girls every year in the name of marrying a wife. Can he be called a righteous god?"

Gui Cheng stared at Gao Jian and said, "His position as a legitimate god was sealed by you gentlemen. Are you saying that the entire Cangzhou, all of you present, are wrong?"

Prime Minister Gui did not mention the matter of cannibalism, but shifted the topic to the gentlemen.

Okay, Gao Jian wants to use the government to suppress me, but do you dare to refute those Cangzhou officials behind you?
Without their tacit consent, could we eat human beings?
If you answer wrong, do you still want to stay in Cangzhou?

Gao Jian looked back at those high-ranking officials who were so majestic and powerful that they could reach the sky, and said in a voice that everyone could hear:
"Yes, they are all wrong."

As soon as these words were spoken, many eyes turned to Gao Jian.

Gao Jian felt as if there were thorns in his back. These gazes even carried magical power, which made him almost unable to move.

But Gao Jian stared at them and continued to ask: "Gentlemen, which one of you dares to stand up and say that this is right?"

Many senior officials kept silent, with their eyes on the nose and their nose on the heart.

He retracted his gaze.

A young man from this realm actually made the gentlemen in Cangzhou afraid to respond.

If under normal circumstances, a junior of the first realm dared to speak like this, he would definitely be dead.

But at this moment, Gao Jian was standing in front of a fifth-level great demon, with a yellow paper with the Shangshu seal hanging above his head. The many high-ranking officials in Cangzhou found it hard to say what to say. If the person in front of them was not Prime Minister Gui, they might even praise Gao Jian as a young hero.

But Prime Minister Gui is here... The Baishanjiang Water Clan is the God of Wealth of all the prefectures in Cangzhou.

"Gentlemen, if you all are silent, then this man has not been appointed to an official position yet, right? Then he killed the River God without authorization, affecting the water transportation of the entire river. The Qingshui River is the territory of the Zuo family, right? The Zuo ancestral temple sacrifice delayed the water transportation of the entire river, causing a loss of at least one million gold coins a year. What crime should he be punished for?" Prime Minister Gui looked around and said so.

When these words were spoken, the senior officials around frowned.

A million gold is definitely not the income from just one river. The old turtle has to start from other places.

The man called Zuociji said nothing, pretending not to hear.

However, at this time, Gao Jian sneered: "Without He Bo, does that mean the river is gone?"

"What is He Bo? He is just an old turtle in the water. He is just an outsider in the river, occupying the water as the king. The water is still there, the fish are still there, why is it that after his death, the water transport is gone, and the fish catch is gone?"

"Well said!" At this time, the giant man with huge eyes, square chin and nine feet tall walked out from behind.

"...The Sima of the Demon Suppression Division is quite generous. Is this also what your family wants?" Gui Cheng said with narrowed eyes.

It’s hard to say how powerful the many noble families in Cangzhou are, but none of them do not rely on the Baishan River for their livelihood. The gold and silver their descendants spend, their treasures, and all kinds of supplies to maintain the operation of their family, all rely on the water transportation of the Baishan River!

If the aquatic tribes cut off their water routes, they won’t be able to support their family!

The man known as Sima of the Demon Suppression Division walked up to Gao Jian and laughed, "Old Turtle, are you dizzy? I'm an official from the imperial court, and my family is in Yuezhou!"

The old turtle was silent for a while, then calmed down: "Okay, okay, since you two think so, then... let your colleagues persuade you. Sorry for bothering you today, goodbye."
