Chapter 4 Faith

Tang Xiaolian's thirsty eyes lit up when she saw the vine hut.

Is this even worth considering?

Of course I agreed.

As long as you enter this place, you won’t have to worry about being hungry anymore. There is also a vine hut created by God himself, so you don’t have to do anything yourself. How cool is that.

"Can my grandma come too?"

She looked at Yang Xiangwei eagerly, afraid that she would refuse.

Yang Xiangwei smiled: "Of course."

But she couldn't leave Huangshan for the time being, and was afraid that she wouldn't be able to help the little girl bring her grandmother over.

but……

Thinking about how those gangsters were scared away just now, they must have run back to the village and are spreading the news that the monsters on Mount Huangshan can eat people.

Just as Yang Xiangwei had expected, the gangster ran back to the village in a hurry, shouting, "Eating people!"

"The monster is eating people!"

"Run! The monster is eating people!"

…

When they heard that the monster was eating people, the whole Yilan Village was shocked, and someone quickly notified the village chief.

When Wumu Village Chief learned about this, he rushed over with the young people in the village.

"Where is the monster?!"

"Yes, yes, yes... in the mountain behind..."

"The monster has come down the mountain?"

"No."

Wumu Village Chief frowned: "Then what are you yelling about?"

The gangster trembled and said, "Tang Xiaolian, she was swept away by the monster."

Village chief Wumu was just about to ask Tang Xiaolian how she was taken away by the monster. She was just a child, so who let her go into the mountains?

However, before he could open his mouth, Xiaolian's grandmother rushed out of the crowd like crazy, grabbed the gangster, and asked anxiously: "What happened to Xiaolian? What happened to my Xiaolian?"

"Your Xiaolian was eaten by a monster! I saw it with my own eyes. It was a tree monster. It swept her away in an instant... It was so fast! In the blink of an eye, she was gone."

"Why didn't you save her?" Xiaolian's grandmother was going crazy. "I only have this one granddaughter, just this one..."

The gangster shook her arm away and said unhappily, "You only have this one granddaughter, and my mother only has me as her son."

"Village chief, you can't just ignore it!" Grandma Xiaolian placed her lifeline on Village Chief Wumu.

Wumu Village Chief was a little embarrassed for a moment: "Don't worry, if we can save him, we will definitely save him."

If he can't save her, there's nothing he can do.

After all, the people had been taken away by the monster and no one knew whether they were still alive or not.

Village chief Wumu felt that there was little hope.

But he was afraid that if he told her, Grandma Xiaolian would collapse, so he could only tell a white lie.

Grandma Xiaolian didn’t know whether she really understood or not. She kept muttering "Xiaolian Xiaolian" and was comforted as she returned to her shabby little house.

After Grandma Xiaolian left, Village Chief Wumu once again confirmed the location of the monster with the gangster Yu Qing and others.

When he heard that the monster was in the mountain that had appeared behind the village not long ago, he frowned slightly.

He knew that something that appeared out of nowhere was definitely not a good thing.

Look!

Is there a monster in there?

well……

Life is hard enough, why does it have to be so difficult?

However, when he heard Yu Qing say that there was a barrier on the mountain and the monsters could not get out, he felt slightly relieved.

"Are you sure the monster can't get out?"

Yu Qing hesitated: "It seems that we can't get out. We ran so far, but we didn't see any monsters chasing us..."

Village chief Wumu was a little worried. After thinking about it, he called the young people in the village and organized them to patrol.

It would be best if the monster didn't come. If it did, they could still escape as soon as possible.

But why don't they just move away?

Where to move?

There are monsters everywhere. How do they know that they won’t encounter any monsters during their relocation?

Before they could find a suitable place to live, they were eaten by monsters on the way.

What's more, this is where they were born and raised, and no one is willing to leave their hometown unless it is absolutely necessary.

After returning to the house, Grandma Xiaolian silently shed tears.

She's just old, not stupid.

The village chief did not call for rescue immediately, but sent her away. It seemed that he did not want to rescue her anymore.

Woo woo woo...my little Lian!

You were so young, how come you died?

Grandma Xiaolian felt heartbroken. Looking at the broken bowls and pots in the house, she felt that life was dark.

Xiaolian is the only relative she has left. Now even Xiaolian is gone. What’s the point of her living?

If they don't go to rescue, she will.

At worst, she and Xiaolian would die together, so they would have company in the underground.

After packing up, putting on her best clothes, and taking her precious granddaughter's favorite things, Grandma Xiaolian headed straight for the strange mountain that had recently appeared.

Standing at the foot of Mount Huangshan, Grandma Xiaolian slowly raised her head, and a majestic and magnificent picture slowly unfolded before her eyes.

The mountains rise from the ground and reach the sky. They are majestic and steep, yet exude an awe-inspiring aura.

One of the peaks looks like a giant lotus blooming in the sky. The layers of rocks are like lotus petals. Under the sunlight, it emits a holy and mysterious light, as if there is really a wisp of fairy air lingering around.

The other one is like a giant standing tall, overlooking the earth with an inviolable majesty. The steep mountain walls seem to be cut by a knife or an axe, which makes people marvel at the wonders of nature.

Between the mountain peaks, there is a light mist, making you feel like you are in a fairyland, like a dream.

But Grandma Xiaolian only felt sorrow in her heart.

Xiaolian, grandma is here...

In fact, Grandma Xiaolian had no idea where Tang Xiaolian was taken away by the "monster". She just chose the shortest road from the village to the strange peak.

She wanted to find her granddaughter as soon as possible.

When Grandma Xiaolian approached the Huangshan barrier, Yang Xiangwei sensed it immediately and quickly informed Tang Xiaolian: "Someone has gone up the mountain. I wonder if it's your grandma. Do you want to go and take a look?"

"want!"

Tang Xiaolian responded crisply.

A gust of wind blew, and out of the woods emerged an animal that Tang Xiaolian had never seen before - it was like a mountain elf, walking gracefully.

His figure is slender and agile, and his posture is so light that he seems able to blend into the light and shadow of the mountains and forests at any time.

The most eye-catching thing is the white spots on its body that bloom like plum blossoms. These spots are evenly sized and distributed in an orderly manner on its back, sides and even buttocks, just like plum blossoms standing proudly on branches in winter.

Yang Xiangwei told Tang Xiaolian that this was a sika deer, a specialty of Huangshan. Later, she could ride it down the hill.

The sika deer's head is delicate and beautiful, with a pair of big eyes like deep black gems, clear and bright, revealing an innate innocence and alertness.

Tang Xiaolian fell in love with it at first sight and asked carefully, "Doesn't it eat people?"

Yang Xiangwei smiled: "The animals in Huangshan are all lovely elves, they don't eat people!"

The green parrot had already landed on the deer's head and chirped, "Old deer, it's you. I thought it was your son."

The sika deer shook its head, trying to shake off the guy that was perched on its antlers.

"No! Can't I just come down?" The green parrot quickly jumped down from the deer's antlers and landed on top of its head. "Is this okay? You're so stingy."

【snort! 】The sika deer snorted coldly and ignored it.

It came to see the mountain god, not to see this guy.
