I woke up and became a mountain!
No big deal, it's just a mountain, right? No need to eat or drink, how great.
Wait, this is another world?!
Xianxia, or something bizarre?
...Chapter 66 I was a demon in my previous life!
It was quickly decided that Ming Qi would teach everyone how to box.
The village chief of Wumu even took Mingqi to the mountain temple to burn incense and report.
Yang Xiangwei raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that the village chief of Wumu was so far-sighted that he even set up the "Yilan Village Self-Defense Force".
That's how it should be!
After all, if you rely on a mountain, the mountain will fall; if you rely on a tree, the tree will run away.
Even if he is a god, he cannot keep an eye on Yilan Village all the time.
Yang Xiangwei still hopes that her believers can be self-reliant and do not need to be "saved" unless absolutely necessary.
What is God?
Perhaps in the eyes of some people, God should be omnipotent and fulfill all the wishes of his believers, and even castrate their wings to prevent them from "betraying" him.
But Yang Xiangwei felt that he did not want to be that kind of God.
He hopes that his believers can "fend for themselves" and will only come to him when it is absolutely necessary. He can be a lighthouse or a guide, but he is definitely not a nanny who takes care of everything for you.
Yang Xiangwei lightly tapped the cigarette lit by the Wumu Village Chief, making it outline a faint word "可" in the air.
The village chief of Wumu was delighted and immediately informed everyone of the good news.
"Why did you agree to this?"
Ming Qi looked at the receding figure of the Wumu Village Chief and returned to the mountain temple. He looked confused and seemed to not understand something.
Why can’t I agree? 】
Yang Xiangwei felt that Ming Qi’s question was a little strange.
There is no loss for him, so why not agree?
"Aren't you afraid that if I teach them, they will think I'm more useful than you and will only listen to me in the future?"
Yang Xiangwei smiled softly: [Why should you be afraid? You are my messenger of God! You represent me. What’s the difference between listening to you and listening to me? 】
Ming Qi frowned slightly and shook his head: "It's different. I might betray you."
It seemed as if a breeze gently brushed Ming Qi's head, and he heard the voice saying: [Why do you think you will betray me? Did I do something that made you feel uncomfortable? 】
"If one day I am stronger than you, why should I still listen to you?"
[So that's what you're talking about...] Yang Xiangwei said with a smile, [The relationships between people are not entirely determined by strength, just like you and Village Chief Wumu, and you and little boy Wu Liangchen. When you become a god in the future, you can continue to be my subordinate god, or you can be on an equal footing with me and become my friend... The world is big, nothing is impossible, and I am looking forward to that day. 】
His tone was light and cheerful, making Ming Qi not know what to say. He said sullenly, "You obviously know what I mean."
If you don't take it seriously, aren't you afraid of being "retaliated" by him?
Or did he think he was so powerful that he didn't take him seriously at all?
[As long as you never kill without reason or have the intention to destroy the world, I think we can live in peace. 】
"I was a demon in my previous life! I killed people!" Ming Qi was a little unconvinced. It was not like he had never killed anyone before.
[But, at the beginning you were saving people! You become like that because you are forced into it. Not in this life. I am here in this life. I will protect the people you want to protect, and this village together with you...】
Who says villains have to be big bad guys?
If he really had a bad heart, he would not have turned into a demon in order to "save" Nanxi Village in his previous life. He would not have been reborn in this life and had the opportunity to retrace his past life's path, but stayed in the village honestly after meeting the family of Village Chief Wumu, either because he was worried that Village Chief Wumu and his family had been deceived, or because he was worried that he was a bad god and would bring disaster to them.
How could Yang Xiangwei not be soft-hearted with such a person?
He is willing to be Ming Qi's guiding star, to let him feel the warmth of this world and let him know that there are still people in this world who love him.
…
Village Chief Tongna: "..."
I am still collecting bricks for building a house, why is Yilan Village starting to set up a "self-defense force"?
His son Tong Dagui carefully observed his expression and said, "Dad, we can only let Ming Qi return to our village after the house is built? They have already started training over there. We can invite Ming Qi back after we build the house. The self-defense forces of Yilan Village are already trained."
Village Chief Tong Na said unhappily, "Do you think I am willing? I want to, but the house I owe Ming Qi has not been built yet. Do you think Village Chief Wumu will let him go? Instead of thinking about these nonsense, you might as well think about doing the job at hand. If you do the job well and have the credit, I can ask for help from Village Chief Wumu, Ming Qi, and the Mountain God."
"We have to wait. We are migrant workers anyway, so we can't collect bricks quickly. My second and third brothers and I have to pick up the migrant workers. If we want to go out with Xu Zhong and the others, we can only go to places that are closer. People in places that are closer may not be willing to take me with them, and they also have amulets given by the mountain god."
The "amulet" that Tong Dagui mentioned was the leaf wrapped in the purse. The one his father gave them, the three of them took turns carrying, to escort the villagers to work in Yilan Village; the one that belonged to the village chief Wumu was "lent" to Xu Zhong and his group to make it easier for them to go out.
The merchant team on Carpenter Zhao's side is still preparing. The bracelets he mentioned are simple, but they won't be able to be sold in large quantities in the early stages. They can only be sold that fast in a day. Xu Zhong and a few others can take them out to sell, so there is no need to form a special team.
Therefore, in addition to being responsible for attracting people to believe in the mountain god, Xu Zhong also worked part-time as a "businessman".
Obviously, Village Chief Tong Na also knew this and sighed, "What can we do? Who made us fall behind? If we fall behind, we will not be able to catch up, and the ones who fall behind will only fall further behind. When you three brothers go over there, keep an eye on them and learn as much as you can. I will still hand over Nanxi Village to you in the future."
The three brothers said, "Yes, Dad."
…
After running around, quite a few amulets were sold, but as for the belief in the Mountain God, except for a few unexpected ones, most people were still waiting and watching.
There was no way, since the mountain god was not famous at all. They would rather believe in the evil two-headed snake god on the nearby hill than in a god they had never heard of.
Xu Zhong: “…”
Let’s just forget about it!
They were frightened by the two-headed snake god in the first place, so they would rather be harassed by monsters than worship the evil god.
Not only does it eat people, it also...sleeps with people!
The snake is from Benxi.
The two-headed snake man does not care about gender, it all depends on his mood. In addition to sacrifices, it would occasionally come down the mountain to kidnap people and bring them back to be its "consort".
joke!
It's a monster, why does it need a "wife"?
If this is "pressed" to the back, won't it be eaten by it?
It would be better to be eaten by it from the beginning, at least there is no "insult" to people.
"Does your village really want to convert to the two-headed snake god?"
Xu Zhong glanced out the window and asked cautiously.
The old man opposite had a helpless look on his face and said, "What can we do if we don't believe it? Our rabbit god has been eaten by it. If we don't believe it, it will eat the people in our village."
Uncle Ma advised Xu Zhong not to show up, so he should leave as soon as the next morning and pretend he had never been there.
Those messengers of the two-headed snake god are not good people at all. If they see strangers in their village, they will definitely come to "extort".
If you have money, you get money; if you don’t have money, you lose your life.
