Chapter 242: Rumors Spread
Since the Mu family separated, with Mu Li's support, the family has rapidly developed for the better.
With the support of Mu Li's Gongfa Pill in cultivation, and the help of the Beimeng and Huangfu families in business, the situation is much better than before.
On the other hand, some people are not having a good time.
The pro-strict faction of the Mu family was driven out of the Mu family, and only got the Mu family's family property, because of this family property, some people started infighting, causing a miasma.
Yan Mo was in no mood to take care of the seriously injured Lixuan and Mu Yi at all, and in the end, the Mu family's pro-Yan faction fell apart, and even bloodshed occurred, and they were separated.
Mu Fengchun was angry and angry, hating iron but not steel, and fell ill and was bedridden in a fit of anger, and he couldn't get out of bed for a few months.
When the news reached the Mu family, Mu Fengtian was very emotional, but he didn't care too much.
Yan Mo returned to the Yan family with two seriously injured people, and did not hesitate to spend the declining Yan family's wealth to treat the two of them.
Chrysostom's reputation is still very popular in the imperial capital, and I heard that he was seriously injured, and many big forces reached out to help, giving whatever they wanted, so Lixuan and Mu Yi's injuries also recovered quickly.
When Lixuan was finally able to get out of bed and walk, Yan Mo consulted with him.
"Otherwise, please ask the seniors of the Divine Calculation Sect to suppress Mu Li, there is almost no one in the imperial capital who can suppress him......" Yan Mo said.
Lixuan was embarrassed.
"The martial saint seniors in the sect are not so easy to invite, and it would be too embarrassing to go back to the sect to invite people now, we still have a way to use."
"How?"
"More than ten years ago, we controlled public opinion, so that many big forces in the imperial capital forced the Gong Mu family, and finally expelled Mu Qingfeng's family from the family, and now that Mu Li is still a celestial calamity, we can still control public opinion and mobilize the power of the masses to deal with him."
"The power of the masses is strong, no matter how strong he is, does he dare to kill all the masses? Isn't he beautiful now? I want him to be ruined again! ”
Yan Mo nodded, and had some consideration.
……
A big mountain fifty miles outside the imperial capital, there is a large reservoir there, which is the source of water for the imperial capital and several nearby cities.
At noon on this day, the dam inexplicably burst open, causing a sudden flood discharge that washed away several villages downstream, killing and injuring several people and causing considerable economic losses.
This incident quickly made headlines, and the central government attached great importance to it, and dispatched a large number of manpower and material resources to rescue and repair it as soon as possible.
At the same time, the authorities also sent people to investigate the cause of the dam collapse, but nothing was investigated, as if it had suddenly collapsed without any warning.
There are high-ranking officials on the news who come forward to explain, but those martial arts families in the imperial capital all know the inside story.
Inexplicably, it is an unreasonable natural disaster.
There is a mountain in the eastern suburbs of the imperial capital, and there are many temples and Taoist temples on the mountain, which is a relatively famous scenic spot in China.
The sound of lightning and thunder is quite loud when it rains heavily on this mountain, but the lightning protection measures are arranged.
However, on this night, when it rained as usual, lightning struck the temple in the mountain, causing the thousand-year-old temple to burn, and later there was a mountain fire, and the whole mountain could see the fire.
The fire brigade came one car after another, and almost all the nearby residents were mobilized to fight the fire on the mountain, and they fought for two days and two nights to extinguish the fire.
The sudden fire, which caused great damage, also made headlines and sparked a heated discussion.
The same is an inexplicable natural disaster, obviously there are lightning protection facilities, but it was struck by lightning and finally ignited a fire.
The news spread in the martial arts world of the imperial capital, and everyone talked about it.
These two disasters came suddenly and inexplicably, and the interval between them was very short, and the causes of the disasters were strange, as if God was going to make you suffer, and then you were in trouble.
Some old-timers in the martial arts world stood up and said that this may be some kind of omen, maybe there has been a big event in the emperor in recent years, and it is very likely to be a bad omen.
However, this is not the end, one day, a street with heavy traffic in the imperial capital suddenly collapsed in a large area, causing severe traffic paralysis and several traffic accidents.
It is still a rescue and maintenance that invests a lot of manpower and material resources, but the reason for the paralysis of the street is still inexplicable, and the buildings under the streets of the imperial capital are intricate, claiming to be stable for tens or hundreds of years, and there is no such thing as cutting corners.
This was yet another very sudden and unreasonable natural disaster......
Next, some places in the imperial capital seemed to be in chaos, with houses collapsing, power supply systems failing, prison riots, and bandits rioting......
It was very sudden that many natural disasters poured out at once, making a mess of the people's livelihood and security in the imperial capital.
In this peaceful and prosperous era of peace and security, a disaster in any place is a big deal, and so many things happened in the imperial capital at once, which made people panic.
Looking at these so-called natural disasters**, except for the reservoir floods and temple fires outside the imperial capital, which caused relatively large losses, the ones in the imperial capital are not major disasters, but they are enough to attract attention.
In this information age, so many things happened in the imperial capital at once, and the top couldn't suppress it at all, and the news spread quickly, causing a lot of panic.
Some people spread rumors on the Internet, saying that God was angry, and others said that it was the coming of the plague god, combined with the suspense of the cause and effect of those catastrophic events, which made many people believe and spread falsehoods.
Although the rumor-mongers were dealt with swiftly and their statements deleted, the momentum was uncontrollable and more and more misled people were being misled.
The Internet exploded, and the Taoist temples near the imperial capital were crowded with people every day, all of them to ask for peace charms to keep them safe.
Even if this is an era of technological anti-feudal superstition, the slightest rumor prevails, and the panicked masses will go crazy and do stupid things that they can't usually understand.
The general public in the imperial capital fell into a panic, and rumors spread everywhere, the most widely spread was that the evil gods of the imperial capital had descended, bringing death and disaster.
The people in the Imperial Capital Martial Arts Realm were much calmer, because they had their own strength, and they still had a certain degree of discernment against rumors of strange powers.
But as the situation progressed, the warriors could not calm down.
One day, a group of warriors took yachts or boats to the underground ancient city, which was usually an extremely safe sea area, and could not even afford a little wind and waves, but those yachts and ships sank inexplicably, drowning more than 20 ordinary warriors at once.
This incident set off a lot of turmoil in the martial arts world of the imperial capital, and the warriors talked about it a lot, and some people combined it with the disasters in the imperial capital in recent days and the corresponding rumors, and began to panic.
For three days in a row, there were several shipwrecks in the sea area between the imperial capital and the underground ancient city, so that the warriors who went back and forth did not dare to take the boat, and stayed on the shore or on the island, until many big forces and bigwigs jointly dispatched to investigate, and the incident came to an end.
However, this is only the beginning.
In a mountain on the outskirts of the imperial capital, there is a martial arts family, which is not very strong, and it is their family's ancestral land, which has been passed down for nearly a hundred years.
One day, animals suddenly flew out of the mountain, countless bats came out during the day, many poisonous insects were mixed in it, and some docile birds and beasts in the mountain were all like crazy, inexplicably attacking the ancestral land of the family, causing a disaster.
Many people died in that martial arts family, and they were forced to relocate, giving up the ancestral land where they had lived for decades.
This time the incident was spread, and it quickly caused a strong reaction in the martial arts world of the imperial capital, and the black market in the imperial capital was all discussing this matter, and some people connected all the time together, feeling that the imperial capital was really going to suffer, maybe something unclean was provoked.
The patriarch of the highly respected super clan opened the ancient books of the family, and a similar thing was recorded on it, saying that in a certain year in ancient times, evil gods and demons were born in the wilderness, walking in the world, bringing endless disasters and disasters to the world, and finally a hermit master was born to kill him, and the disaster stopped.
This account was published, and many warriors saw it and spread it.
More and more martial artists believe that the emperor has an evil god born and arrived, causing an inexplicable natural disaster**, which makes the martial arts world of the imperial capital panic.
