Pangolin is the Mountain God 25

Soon, the plan for forest management began.

Most of the mountains and forests centered on Hulu Mountain are undergoing emergency management, returning farmland to forest, cleaning up garbage in rivers, and sealing off factories with unqualified emissions. As for those that meet the standards, they are required to relocate and are given corresponding compensation and preferential policies.

The factories left happily.

The remaining unscrupulous factories are now behind bars, crying and regretting their actions. No one would have thought that they would be shut down and sent to jail even though they built factories in such a remote place and secretly discharged pollutants.

Factories were demolished one after another and trees were planted.

At the same time, in the mountains and forests at the same location as Hulu Mountain, a mountain temple was being built in full swing. Its scale and appearance were exactly the same as those of Hulu Mountain.

They originally wanted to build it bigger, but were afraid that it would lose its effect, so they simply built a one-to-one replica to win by quantity.

Half a month.

The surrounding forests, large and small, have been almost repaired, although half of the mountain still looks a bit bare, only small saplings can be seen vaguely, and the planted trees swaying in the wind.

The rivers, big and small, are clean and the water flows gently.

Many villagers were abuzz with discussion about this, until the village chief, returning from a meeting at the county level overnight, repeatedly repeated on a loudspeaker: "No one is allowed to go up the mountain to destroy trees, let alone capture animals. Anyone caught doing so will be jailed for three months! Three consecutive offenses will result in a minimum sentence of ten years."

This is the official announcement issued urgently yesterday.

This is more severe than the previous practice of only imposing a fine or sentencing people to three years in prison only for extremely serious crimes.

Some people who like to illegally cut down trees are so scared that they never dare to go up the mountain again.

The vast majority of people on the Internet accepted this well, saying that the flowers, plants and trees in the mountains should not be destroyed. On the other hand, mountain temples are still being built.

Soon, half a month passed.

The mountain temple closest to Hulu Mountain has been completed. Experts and senior executives have all arrived here. They looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to do next.

"Please ask the guardian of Hulu Mountain to come."

Since he is the guardian chosen by the mountain god, perhaps he knows something.

After receiving the news, Zhao He and Sanpozi got on the specially sent military vehicle without thinking.

More than ten minutes later, they arrived at their destination and spent another twenty minutes climbing up. When they saw the mountain temple that was exactly the same as the one on Hulu Mountain, their hearts were hot and swollen.

Lord Mountain God...

It has been half a month and they have not seen the Mountain God again.

Anxiety, uneasiness, and panic kept them awake all night, but Zhao Xiaolu couldn't bear to see her parents and her third grandmother and grandfather like this, so she covered her heart and carefully felt the mountain.

"Lord Mountain God..."

She murmured softly, and seemed to hear the mountain breathing, slowly and powerfully, with surging vitality leaping everywhere.

In her trance, she seemed to hear the voice of the mountain god.

"I'm fine..."

When she came to her senses, she found that she was weak all over, as if she had run a thousand meters during school. She was tired and panting, but there was a very relieved smile on her face.

Zhao He and others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

And now, they stood in front of the newly built mountain temple, bent down and knelt, praying from the bottom of their hearts that the mountain god would be safe and sound, and... hoped that mankind and the world could survive this crisis.

Suddenly, the eyes of the mountain god statue lit up with a faint light.

Those present heard a majestic yet peaceful voice.

"There will be strange phenomena next, so don't panic."

The moment he finished speaking, a column of light towering into the clouds emerged from the mountain god statue of Hulu Mountain. As if it could sense the location of the other mountain god statue, the light refracted and rushed straight towards the statue.

"Buzz—"

The people and animals in the area centered on the two mountains and forests all subconsciously raised their heads. The beam of light was bright and full of divinity. Even those who knew nothing about what was happening before their eyes instinctively felt awe.

"What... is that?"

"Is it the lights of a drone? Or the exhaust of a fighter jet?"

Before they could figure out what the beam of light was, they noticed a brighter light emerging from the distant hills, spreading like ripples on water.

In the blink of an eye, he was in front of them.

Whether they were animals or humans, they all subconsciously took a few steps back, and some even covered their faces with their arms. The next second, the surroundings were still quiet, without any sound.

They dropped their hands in confusion, their expressions becoming extremely shocked.

Everywhere you look, you will see vines growing everywhere and extending continuously, dotted with clusters of flowers. This incredible picture does not make people feel scared, but instead gives people a sense of déjà vu like a dream or fairy tale.

But the question is, how could these... incredible things happen in reality?

From the distant mountains and forests to everything nearby, the originally withered flowers, plants and trees suddenly became lush green and full of vitality.

The bare forest originally had only a few green dots, but in just one minute, the forest was already green, along with the river at the foot of the mountain.

It is simply the best portrayal of a dead tree coming back to life in spring.

Countless people walked out of their homes, looking at the completely changed scenery around them in confusion and astonishment, and some people subconsciously wanted to take out their mobile phones to take pictures of it all.

After being surprised, some young people always felt that these scenes were inexplicably familiar, as if they had seen them somewhere.

"Why is this so similar to that trending video from a few days ago?"

No one knew who suddenly said this, and most people were suddenly surprised.

Isn’t that trending video a special effect?

But how do you explain all this?

At this moment, military vehicles suddenly drove up in the distance, and a voice was playing on the loudspeaker: "Please all citizens, do not panic. Please maintain order to avoid a stampede. This matter is under control. Do not panic."

The people calmed down after seeing this, and stood there curiously and anxiously. Some of them even whispered to the people around them, their expressions extremely excited and full of curiosity.

The town and the mountains were covered with countless plants and flowers in just a few minutes, which could not be explained by scientific reasons at all.

This is definitely the revival of spiritual energy!

This thought came to the minds of all the young people.

Military vehicles were still maintaining order, and the vines seemed to deliberately avoid the streets to prevent pedestrians and vehicles from passing.

The superiors who received the report breathed a sigh of relief.

That mountain god... was indeed different from the mountain god they imagined.

The other party is extremely kind and careful. They will give early warnings for fear of scaring the villagers, and will naturally remind them in advance.

But what is the other party's purpose in doing this?

The next second, the mountain statue became animated, as if it could see them, and a voice emanated from it: "I can use the mountain statue to travel to any place and change the air and environment nearby, delaying the destruction of the world."

The God's voice was as gentle and majestic as ever. He sincerely informed these humans, who were the real ones slowly killing the God, of His abilities and the purpose of His actions.

This contrast and shock in identities made everyone stunned and unable to recover for a long time.

God...isn't he angry?

They were shocked and ashamed, and suddenly understood the three women's heartfelt respect and love for the mountain god.

This has nothing to do with His being a deity.

But it is because—He is God, yet He can treat all things in the world with tenderness.

Luo Chen's real body is still in Hulu Mountain, and the mountain god statue here is more like an anchor point. The shock, astonishment, etc. conveyed by the humans at the foot of the mountain are all absorbed into this mountain god statue.

In the future, it will be like Hulu Mountain, able to circulate spiritual energy independently and improve the surrounding environment and air little by little.

Almost everything he said to humans before was true.

The world will indeed be destroyed, but the timeline will be delayed to at least two hundred years. By that time, the only way for humans to survive is to escape from this world.

Suddenly, waves of emotions came again.

Luo Chen could instantly sense the source of these emotions and couldn't help but look surprised.

What on earth are they imagining?

The power of emotions was surprisingly strong, no less than that of Third Mother-in-law and the others.

The officers continued to gaze at the mountain god statue for a long time, raised their hands slightly in salute, and silently said in their hearts: "Thank you for your contribution to the world."

Luo Chen was stunned for a long moment, then a faint smile suddenly appeared on his face. He whispered to Wan Kong Jing in his sea of consciousness, "I'm starting to like this way of practicing by traveling through the world."

Human beings are always so contradictory yet lovely, with both good and bad sides.

He did not use the spiritual power absorbed from this secret book to replenish his own cultivation. Instead, he chose to use it to fulfill his original body's wish to preserve the mountain and help this world that was heading towards destruction get back on track.
