Pangolin is the Mountain God 13

When Zhao He and his family arrived, the third wife hurriedly urged them: "Hurry up, hurry up."

Several people ran straight up the mountain carrying large and small bags.

Everyone can't wait to meet the Mountain God.

But the Zhao He couple were obviously more excited and nervous because today was the time to treat Zhao Xiaolu again.

From being diagnosed as incurable by the hospital in the beginning, to later after several miracles performed by the Mountain God, they saw with their own eyes that Nier gradually became healthier, and could even stand for three seconds with the help of a table and other things.

It may seem like a small change, but it is undoubtedly as far away as life and death.

Zhao Xiaolu was also very excited.

Rather than being able to stand up completely, she wanted to see the mountain god more at this moment, as if even her soul became peaceful and safe.

No matter what she encounters in the future, she can move forward bravely.

The other side.

Zhao Hu hid in the deep grass without moving. His trouser legs were scratched by the weeds, leaving several holes. Mosquitoes and insects drilled directly into the holes, causing him to feel itchy and painful.

He cursed under his breath and was about to slap his thigh when he heard a faint voice in the distance, like someone talking.

He quickly lowered his body, hiding himself completely, then opened a gap and peeked out, his expression suddenly becoming excited.

It turned out to be those people of the Third Mother-in-law, and his good brother's family.

Zhao Hu sneered.

They are all members of the Zhao family, but for some reason, Mrs. Zhao has always looked down on him and rolled her eyes at him every time. Now that there is a way to make money, she only thinks about bringing Zhao He's family along.

Why?!

When he found the place where the herbs were grown, he dug them all up, leaving nothing for the Third Lady and Zhao Hu.

At this moment, the third wife spoke again.

"Next time you come here, I'd better bring a couple of spare hoes. The hoe I left in the mountains seems a bit blunt, and it's too hard to dig things."

Zhao He scratched his head and smiled innocently: "Okay, I just happened to be going to buy a batch of bricks, so I'll go to the town to buy a few. I know the boss and he can give me the cost price."

When Zhao Hu heard this, his heart started pounding.

Hoe, digging?

It seems that what my wife heard was true. The third wife and the others really found a batch of valuable herbs. Otherwise, why would the hoe become dull so quickly every day?

It’s obvious that they dig it every day!

He completely ignored the bricks Zhao He mentioned later, and was completely immersed in the joy and ecstasy of making a fortune. He even planned in his mind how to use the money.

First of all, you must buy a car, then buy an expensive mobile phone and a set of clothes. Oh, and also buy high-end genuine leather shoes. After that, invite those good brothers over for a meal and show off.

It just so happened that my wife was a pretty good cook, so she prepared all the delicious fish, meat, and even the abalone that city people eat.

There were also a few people hiding in the deep grass on the other side. People from other places on the mountain were also gathering here. They hid themselves carefully and stared at the gradually receding figures of the Third Mother-in-Law and others without blinking.

"Let's catch up!"

I don't know who said this in a low voice, as if they were afraid that the third wife and the others would get lost.

Without even turning his head, Xiaotian pushed aside the grass and stared at the front. "If you want to follow, go ahead. If you're discovered, I'll see how you'll explain it to the whole village."

Everyone suddenly fell silent, including the person who spoke from among them.

When the voices of the Third Wife and the others were about to disappear around the corner, Xiaotian lowered his voice and said to the people behind him, "Let's go."

They all stood up at the same time, and just as they had half of their bodies exposed, they happened to meet the eyes of Zhao Hulai, who had also stood up two hundred meters away.

For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded. The person who had suggested to catch up seemed to have grabbed Xiaotian by the hairpin and asked, "Why did you call the boss of the Zhao family as well?"

The others didn't say anything and just watched what happened.

Xiao Tian quickly reacted, "Are you crazy? Everyone knows that Zhao Hu and the Zhao He family have a bad relationship, and the third wife doesn't like him either. How can I ask him to come over?"

He's not that stupid.

The atmosphere became a little stagnant for a moment.

Zhao Hu had no idea what the argument was about. He took a big step forward, not even bothering to swat the bugs and mosquitoes off his legs, and angrily asked Xiao Tian and the others, "What are you doing here?"

Most people subconsciously felt guilty and panicked.

Xiaotian sneered: "What else can we do? This matter has been agreed upon by most people in the village. Third Uncle is leading the effort to find a way for the whole village to get rich. But you..."

After Xiaotian shut Zhao Hu's mouth with this extremely legitimate and sufficient reason, many people straightened their backs and stared at Zhao Hu as if he were a thief.

At least they would tell the whole village about this way to get rich, including the third wife, so that she could make money for a long time, but Zhao Hu was different.

Everyone knows that he is selfish and lazy. He must have the selfish idea of following the Third Lady to find the location of the medicinal herbs, and then secretly go up the mountain to dig them all up.

Zhao Hu's face flushed red from the looks these people gave him. He angrily tried to argue, "The one who knows the location of the herbs is at least my brother. We're all family, even if we're broken bones, we're still connected. So what if I dug up the herbs? But what about you? You're all not related to Third Wife or my brother, yet you're trying to take advantage of us. If you find a way to make money, would you dare share it with the rest of the village?"

After these words were spoken, some of them, who had originally not wanted to go up the mountain, were afraid that their actions would lead to resentment and rejection from the villagers. Unable to bear the brunt of their conscience and moral condemnation, they simply walked out: "I quit."

Another person stood up and said: "I quit too!"

Then another person stood up and said sincerely, "Regardless of whether Zhao Hu was right or wrong, I just can't get over it. Even if they dug up all the herbs, what's the use? There's no written agreement that everything on this mountain must be shared by everyone in the village."

When others dig up good things, they don’t share them with the whole village, so why should Third Mother-in-law give them away?

They turned around and walked up the mountain, intending to inform the third wife.

Seeing this, the others hurriedly chased after him.

"Hurry up and catch up!"

"We can't let them tell the Third Wife."

Seeing this, these people could only run and try to catch up with the third wife in front, but the strange thing was that no matter how hard they ran, they could not catch up, and there was always a distance between them that was neither far nor close.

They had to shout: "Aunt San, Zhao He, stop it!"

The sound was so loud that even the people chasing after them could hear it clearly. They were so scared that they hurriedly quickened their pace, fearing that they would be heard by the Third Mother-in-law and her companions.

"Quick, chase after them!"

The people in front were shouting and running until their throats were about to smoke. Their pace gradually slowed down and they said breathlessly, "What should we do? It seems that the Third Wife and the others can't hear us."

"Don't worry about that for now, just run."

If you run too slowly, you will be caught up by the people behind you, and it will be too late to remind the Third Lady then.

A few people had no choice but to grit their teeth and continue running forward. The group of people behind them also gritted their teeth and chased them desperately. They didn't know how long they ran. When everyone in the rock block was about to give up, the third woman and the others suddenly disappeared.

"Why is he gone?"

Several people slowly stopped and began to look around for traces of people passing by.

For example, footprints, branches and grass damaged by people passing by, and marks left by wheelchairs.

But still nothing.

"Are we taking the wrong road?"

"Even if we took the wrong road, Third Wife and the others were indeed walking on this road at the time. How could they not hear us talking?"

As they calmed down, they felt vaguely uneasy.

They looked at each other in bewilderment, not knowing what to do. To make matters worse, the people behind them also caught up and surrounded them, panting and saying, "You guys are quite good at running."

They were all from the same village, so they weren't afraid of what these people might do to them. They just retorted, "We'll tell the Third Wife about this when we get back."

Go back and...talk about this?

They were stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what this meant. It wasn't until they realized there was no trace of the Third Wife around that they realized something, and suddenly grabbed one of them, their faces filled with suspicion: "Are you deliberately leading us away?"

Just to prevent them from finding the Third Lady.

The men were stunned for a moment. Seeing this, Xiaotian pulled the man away and said, "There's no need for them to do this. Let's search carefully around here first."

He didn't want anything to go wrong.

Oda and others searched the area carefully several times but found no traces.

Just when they were about to give up, the sound of birds chirping came faintly from somewhere, extremely loud and instantly making this extremely quiet forest lively.

"What's going on?"

Everyone was shocked.

But then, something even more magical happened.

Squirrels, birds, and even sparrows appeared everywhere in the forest, and all kinds of small animals rushed in one direction.

They were so frightened that they dared not move, but they were also curious and eager to learn about unknown phenomena.

What happened to these animals?

One of them swallowed and said, "Do you want to... go and take a look?"

Many people nodded.

"Go! There are so many of us, what are we afraid of?"

Perhaps it was this sentence that gave everyone courage. They took out various farm tools, sickles and other tools for attacking and protecting themselves from their backpacks, and followed the animals carefully.

It took about a few minutes to walk.

They suddenly stopped in their tracks, their expressions showing a hint of surprise and confusion.

The animals actually formed a circle and sat very quietly. In the center were the three women who had been lost before, and the little girl in the wheelchair. They were smiling happily and talking to the animal in front that looked like a pangolin.

This scene was too weird and bizarre, and also particularly... dreamy.

In addition, the relaxed and smiling expressions of the Third Mother-in-law and the others further reduced their inner fear and anxiety, and they instinctively suppressed their emotions and waited to see what would happen.

Suddenly, countless vines and branches emerged from the ground, and flowers of various colors appeared. The third wife and the others turned to look at Zhao Xiaolu in the wheelchair, as if they were looking forward to what would happen next.

But they were so shocked that they almost screamed.

This is unreasonable!

Vines spread across the ground, looking incredibly unreal, like something out of an animated film. A few vines and flowers even grew to their feet. One of them touched one with trembling hands and sat down on the ground.

This was definitely not a dream, but something that really grew out of thin air in an instant. He could even feel the small thorns on the vines and leaves, and the faint fragrance emanating from the flowers.

"Oh my god, this is all true!"
