Pangolin is the mountain god 9
After the live pigs and sheep were untied, they immediately fled deep into the forest. A vine suddenly emerged from a tree, rolled up the fruits and flowers in the bamboo basket, and hid deeper into the forest.
This means that the mountain god has accepted the offering.
Finally, the three old ladies were able to let go of their worries. They instinctively wanted to get close to the mountain god, but they also felt awe and did not dare to get too close.
The Zhang siblings were still in a daze, looking at the pangolin unconsciously, then quickly looking away, fearing that they would be discovered by the pangolin - no, it should be the mountain god.
They never expected that this time they returned to the village with the intention of catching the liar who had cheated their parents and Zhao He's family, but in the end they were forced to change their worldview.
In this world... there really are mountain gods.
The two couldn't help but think divergently. If there is even a mountain god, then does that mean the god of wealth and other gods and Buddhas also exist?
She even recalled her mother's unshakable belief in these things, and couldn't help but wonder if her mother had seen these things in her earlier years?
It turns out that her father, as well as she and her brother, were the ones who were truly blinded by one thing.
The sacrifice was over, and the third woman asked cautiously, "Lord Mountain God, are you going back to the village, or staying on this mountain?"
She was also thinking of making more food for the Mountain God.
Luo Chen had already made plans in his mind and continued to use the Wankong Mirror to transmit a message to the Third Mother and the others, "I need to stay in the mountains to deal with the crisis. You should hurry down the mountain. If you need anything, you can leave a basket of fruit here for sacrifice and I will come to you when I feel it."
As soon as he finished speaking, several vines appeared again, dragging Luo Chen's body and disappearing into the depths of the forest. Only a few of them were left standing there, unable to calm down for a long time.
The third wife was the first to recover. She patted her dirty pants and glanced at her silly son and daughter: "Don't forget the oath you swore before. It was sworn in front of the mountain god."
The Zhang siblings came back to their senses with a start, and suddenly became nervous and even a little scared.
Seeing this, the Third Master snorted, "Why don't you just keep it to yourself? How many people in this world can actually see a god with their own eyes? You swore an oath, which is like registering with the mountain god. Anyone else would be happy to have such luck."
One word can wake a dreamer up.
The two then realized that they had fallen into a misconception. They only thought that God would remember their vows and that they would be struck by lightning if they broke their vows.
This is not just talk.
If you are not careful, you may lose your life.
But if you think about it from another perspective, why would they risk telling others? What good would it do?
No.
Instead, it will cost you your life.
But if they don’t tell anyone, the mountain god will only remember them. If something really happens to them in the future, they might not be able to ask the mountain god for help.
Even if it doesn't work, it's okay.
Because it is better than having no hope at all and having to wait for death.
Throughout history, whether in rumors or in film and television dramas, it is rare to see gods responding to requests, so he was prepared for the possibility that the mountain god would not help. Besides, just based on the fact that he had cured his hidden injuries and minor ailments today, the money was not wasted, and this trip was really worth it.
"Mom and Dad, how did you get to know the Mountain God?"
On the way back, the atmosphere among them had become relaxed. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Zhang brothers and sisters dared to ask the questions buried in their hearts.
Zhang Lipan was even more confused.
You know, her mother would tell her everything, but she kept the matter of the mountain god so secretive, not revealing a single word.
The third wife straightened her back and said proudly, "How else could I know him? Thanks to my constant worship of the gods and Buddhas, I registered with the mountain god. So when the mountain god was injured, he immediately called your father over."
The Third Master listened to the Third Wife's distortion of the facts and couldn't help but interrupt: "Nonsense, it's obvious that the Mountain God is impressed by my medical skills."
"Come on, does the Mountain God really need your help?"
The third wife used the wound of the mountain god, which had healed in just one day and one night, to provoke the third uncle, who was speechless. After a long while of grumbling, he finally managed to say, "I won't argue with you!"
The Third Wife walked as if she had won a battle, and she looked even more powerful. The villagers standing by the roadside didn't even try to talk to her directly, for fear that the Third Wife would argue with them again.
When they arrived in the yard, the third wife sat down directly, and the Zhang brothers and sisters immediately and attentively served tea and water. Zhao He and his wife felt uncomfortable and repeatedly said that they didn't need to be so polite.
"If my aunt and uncle hadn't come to my house that day, my daughter would have really..." Zhao He couldn't help sobbing and his eyes reddened when he said this. "Lord Mountain God is our family's benefactor, and you too. If you have any problems in the future, just call me. I will help you even if it costs my life!"
The third wife waved her hand and said, "Just take good care of Ni'er, and don't forget the conditions that the Mountain God said before."
Protect this mountain and the mountain god.
Zhao He and his wife have never forgotten this incident.
Zhang Lipan and Zhang Tianzhuang took this opportunity to quickly inquire about the details. After listening to Zhao He and his wife's story, they couldn't help but sigh: "Fortunately, there is the mountain god..."
Otherwise, Ni'er, such a smart and sensible child, would be really finished.
However, Zhang Lipan noticed a detail. "If the mountain god had just woken up, how did he get the leg injury? Before leaving, did he say he would stay on the mountain to deal with the crisis?"
What does this crisis refer to?
Did this 'crisis' take advantage of the Mountain God's weakened state while he was just waking up and hurt him? Now that the Mountain God has barely recovered, he's immediately returned to the mountain to deal with this matter.
She simply stated her thoughts, which immediately caused the worry and tension of the third wife and the others.
The third wife slapped her thigh and said, "Will those starlight dots that the Mountain God created today make him weak? What if he can't defeat that thing?"
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she blamed herself even more.
If she had known earlier, she should have stopped the Mountain God. If something really happened to him, she would not regret dying a thousand times.
Zhang Lipan thought for a moment and said, "Mom, the mountain god is a god. His wisdom is many times greater than that of humans. He must have thought of everything you can think of."
It must have considered all kinds of crises at the time before making the decision to save people.
"I'll take a few days off and stay here with you. We can observe the situation in the mountains and come over to help if anything happens."
Although I don't know if I can help.
The third wife wiped her tears and said, "Okay, okay."
Zhang Tianzhuang hesitated for a few seconds after seeing this, and then quickly made a decision: "Then I'll stay too. After all, I'm still a young and strong man, and I can still lend a hand if things don't work out."
Zhao He's wife suddenly remembered something and asked Zhao Xiaolu in a low voice: "Ni'er, can you feel anything this time?"
Nier had sensed the changes in the mountain god twice before, so maybe this time too...
Zhao Xiaolu pressed her chest and hesitated, "I can only feel that the Mountain God is doing well now, but I don't know what he will be like in the future..."
So she was also very worried, but she hated herself for not being able to help.
The few of them fell into a suppressed silence again. Finally, the Third Wife slammed the table and said, "Saying this is simply demoralizing. Go back and do what you need to do."
Zhao He and his wife pushed Zhao Xiaolu back home. Only the four members of the Zhang family were left in the small courtyard. After hurriedly eating a simple meal, they moved a small stool and stared at Hulu Mountain in the distance, as if they could see the state of the mountain god through the mountain.
As for the bamboo basket where the mountain god once lay, the Zhang family regarded it as a treasure. They covered it with something respectfully and placed it on the top of the hall for worship. According to the words of the third wife, they could feel the mountain god's presence there every day.
The next few days were calm.
Instead of relaxing, the third wife became even more nervous. After thinking it over, she immediately prepared a sumptuous meal and packed it in her lunch box, saying, "I'm going to go into the mountains!"
She did not forget to take the fresh fruits she had just bought and prepare for the sacrifice.
"We're going too."
None of the three members of the family wanted to stay. After all, they didn’t know if they would have the chance to see the mountain god again in the future, so they had to take this opportunity to see it a few more times.
When I recall this incident when I am old, I will wake up laughing.
The third uncle thought more: "I don't know where the mountain god lives. In my opinion, should we take some food and supplies with us?"
Others echoed.
Zhang Lipan immediately placed orders online for a lot of outdoor supplies, such as picnic tents and waterproof and windproof solar lights. The items arrived in the afternoon of the same day she placed the order, so she packed them up and headed straight for the mountain.
Before going up the mountain, the third wife went to Zhao He's house and asked if he wanted to go up the mountain together.
Zhao He and his wife, as well as Zhao Xiaolu, who was undergoing rehabilitation training, agreed without hesitation. They hurriedly packed up a lot of food and drinks and prepared to take them over.
Zhao Xiaolu touched the colored pencil drawing that she had spent a day and a night on, folded it carefully and put it in her pocket. This seemed to be the only way she could express her gratitude and thanks at the moment.
I just don’t know if the mountain god will like it.
With a mixture of trepidation and anticipation, the group prepared to head up the mountain. The villagers were stunned to see these people carrying large and small bags, as if they were going to have a picnic in the mountains.
"What's so fun on this mountain? Why did you bring your children with you?"
Zhao He responded with his usual honest expression: "Isn't this just to let the children relax? It's convenient to go back and forth to the village, and breathing some fresh air can also help relax the mind."
These words were taught to him by Zhang Lipan.
As expected, the people in the village did not doubt this at all. Instead, they praised the Zhao He family for being so kind to the child, and also praised the Sanpo family for being nice people who wanted to help the Zhao He family.
Zhao He's sister-in-law couldn't help but roll her eyes when she passed by: "What's so good about it? You're so attentive to a wreck, and a girl at that. You might as well hurry up and have another boy to continue the family line."
The people nearby couldn't stand what they heard and couldn't help but say, "Alright, alright, Zhao He has been here for so many years, stop staring at them and talking non-stop."
"that is."
Others echoed her words. Zhao He's sister-in-law's face turned pale and she glared at these people angrily. She turned and left, wanting to kick everything she saw on the way. When she returned home and saw her husband lying on the kang smoking and the house was not tidied up, she was even more furious.
"I'm so unlucky to marry you. I'm angry at you everywhere!"
They are obviously brothers, but one is so lazy, while the other is diligent and hardworking. He is also good to his wife. He moves out as soon as he is told to, and will never let his wife down.
The more she thought about it, the more jealous she became, and the more unhappy she became.
Zhao He's eldest brother came over with a smile and coaxed him with sweet words: "Hey, why are you angry?"
The sister-in-law was quickly coaxed into calming down and started packing up her things on her own initiative.
The elderly couple next door sighed deeply and chatted in low voices: "I went to see Ni'er this morning. She's feeling much better. I secretly gave the few thousand yuan we saved to Ni'er's mother."
"That's good, but we can't let the old family know about this."
Otherwise, there will be another major earthquake. It will never end!
The other side.
The Third Lady and her group arrived at the place they had visited last time. In just one night, the place was covered with lush grass and flowers on both sides. The pine trees on the trees were not afraid of people at all and jumped over curiously to look around.
Several people were a little nervous, afraid of encountering the "danger" that would cause the mountain god to be injured, but also anxiously looking forward to seeing the mountain god next. In short, their emotions were extremely complex and fluctuating, which also provided Luo Chen with several waves of emotional strength.
He now has complete control over the mountain. Every flower, grass, tree, and even stone will become his eyes and ears, and he will be able to know what is happening in every corner at the first time.
He refined this technique and was able to make greater use of his emotions. Every time he used his strength, it would be fed back to the Hulu Mountain that was connected to his body.
He will become stronger and stronger, and the mountain will become more and more spiritual. Similarly, this will be fed back to him, making him continue to become stronger, thus forming a virtuous circle.
He stopped practicing the technique, sensing what the Third Wife and the others were saying and doing at the moment, and said to Wan Kong Jing, "This technique is indeed very good. When you travel through the myriad realms in the future, you can search for other different techniques. There will always be a time when they will be useful."
Wankongjing responded.
Although it usually collects and records various martial arts secrets, even the medical skills of the ordinary world are recorded in the book.
But who can have too much of good things, especially something like knowledge?
Luo Chen swung his tail and quickly adapted to this more agile and powerful body. Even the sharpest knife or even a bullet could not penetrate the scales, and at most would only leave a faint mark.
The third old woman arranged the fruits for the sacrifice, looked at the other things, and after confirming that there was no problem, she silently recited the four words "Lord Mountain God" in her heart.
She didn't know whether this method would work.
Others did the same.
After about two or three minutes, the wind seemed to stop, but the leaves, grass, and even the flowers swayed slightly, as if an invisible existence too huge to be seen had descended.
This feeling is so strange,
The Third Mother-in-law and the others were extremely shocked, their scalps even tingled, and they instinctively wanted to lower their heads.
In an instant, several waves of emotions surged into Luo Chen's body.
Then, a voice appeared in the minds of the Third Mother-in-law and the others at the same time, making them feel close and awed as always.
"What do you want from me?"
The mountain god has appeared!
