Chapter 32: Taking the Statue Out
Village chief Wu Mu didn't know what the highest level of monsters could be. Anyway, the highest he had seen was earth grade. From what people heard, there were only four levels from low to high: ordinary grade, earth grade, heaven grade, and holy grade.
The holy item is already at the "legendary" level, and I only heard about it from the nobles in the town when I went to the town to purchase it.
Now the mountain god told them that such a statue could protect them from the monsters of "heavenly grade" and below. How could they not be shocked? !
Village chief Wumu couldn't believe it: Is our mountain god so powerful? !
Can a statue possess such divine power? !
Yang Xiangwei:? ? ? ?
Is this considered powerful?
His idol only drives away, not defeats, okay?
If his divine power hadn't been locked...
Humph!
He will definitely surprise them!
…
Of the ten statues, nine were left in the mountain temple, and the village chief Wumu and the villagers carried one up the mountain.
They wanted to see if this statue could really drive away the monsters. If this is true, it will be much more convenient for them to go out of the village to work in the future. Even if they go to a place where the mountain god is not around, they will have a way out.
Carpenter Zhao would definitely go with them because he wanted to witness it with his own eyes.
Village chief Wumu was not an impulsive person. To be on the safe side, he did not rashly lead his men out and set off. Instead, as he did in the past, he sent young men with good legs and feet to explore the way first, and then led the main force out when there were no problems.
"village head……"
Tang Xiaolian was very happy to see the village chief Wumu and his people.
Carpenter Zhao, who was following behind, then realized that there was someone living in the sacred mountain of the Mountain God. He thought that the sacred mountain of the Mountain God could not be entered casually.
There are several streams in Huangshan, one of which is called Taohua Creek, which is located at the south gate of Huangshan. The stream flows out from between the peaks, and the water is clear. Its water sources are mainly rainwater, spring water and meltwater from mountain ice and snow in Huangshan.
The name of Taohua Creek is very poetic. The scenery along the creek is charming, with many strange pines and rocks along the creek. When the peach blossoms are in full bloom in spring, the petals fall into the creek, creating a unique scene.
In addition, there is a "Yungu Creek" running through the Yun Valley, providing necessary water resources for the animals and plants in the mountains.
Of course, the river that Village Chief Wu Mu and his men want to divert water is definitely not these two. After all, these streams are located in the mountains, and it is inconvenient to divert water.
But the rivers at the foot of Huangshan Mountain are different. From its source, Tunxi, it meanders at the foot of Huangshan Mountain. It has abundant water resources, which is more than enough to irrigate the surrounding farmland.
Because of the "time travel", the surrounding villages no longer exist, so it is most appropriate to lead them to Yilan Village.
The head of Wumu Village followed the "instructions" of the mountain god, brought incense and candles, respectfully worshipped the river, explained the purpose of his visit, and then shouted: "Please respectfully lead the river god!"
The villagers shouted in unison: "Please come to the River God!"
After shouting three times in a row, the village chief Wumu inserted the incense into the incense burner.
After the incense and candles have burned out and there is no abnormality, it means that Lord Ruhe has tacitly agreed, and they can start digging.
The waiting time was long. Some villagers could not sit still and whispered to the people around them: "Who is this River God? Before we came, we didn't say there were other gods on this mountain. Who is more powerful, him or the mountain god?"
"It must be the mountain god who is more powerful, otherwise he wouldn't let us dig the river of the river god."
However, they were a little surprised that there was more than one god on Mount Huangshan.
When the Wumu village chief heard this, he quickly scolded him.
Just kidding!
No matter who is more powerful between Lord River God and Lord Mountain God, how can one speak casually in front of the gods?
If you violate other people's taboos, how many lives do they have to pay for it?
They are all so ignorant!
Yang Xiangwei passed by silently.
He is the only deity on Mount Huangshan, so where did the Lord of the River come from? He asked them to offer sacrifices simply because he wanted to train a few helpers for himself.
The so-called helpers, in addition to those that have already become spirits, also include those that "enlighten" mountains, rivers, and make them give birth to life, and thus be canonized as gods.
As for water gods or something like that, Yang Xiangwei still prefers "living beings".
The creation of living things requires many conditions, such as the natural gestation of a river that gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth; or the growth of living things through the worship of gods and burning incense over time.
The former requires time, and Yang Xiangwei can't wait, but the latter is different. The latter has him by her side to assist, plus the incense of the villagers, I believe they will soon welcome the "Shuhe God".
Because there were no living creatures in the Ruhe River, there was nothing unusual when the incense burned out.
Village chief Wumu asked everyone to work.
They did not plan to build the water diversion channel in one go, but instead planned to dig some shallow and small ditches first, as long as they could let the water flow to the village.
The rest can be dug and built bit by bit later.
Yang Xiangwei came over a few times and made sure that they were digging seriously and there was nothing to worry about, so she went back to practice.
As the days passed, the small ditch was getting longer and longer, and it was almost reaching the entrance of the village. Suddenly, Gao Guangliang cried out in pain: "Ouch!"
"What's wrong?"
"I think I was bitten by something!" Gao Guangliang rolled up his pants and saw an ant as big as a thumb.
He was startled and reflexively slapped it away.
Unexpectedly, the ant was very ferocious. After landing on the ground, it rushed towards his feet and bit him with its mouthparts raised. The straw sandals he was wearing could not protect him from the ant's bite, which left a bloody wound.
"Damn! This ant is too fierce! "
The villagers nearby exclaimed when they saw it.
The village chief Wu Mu also heard it and ran over quickly.
When I came over, I found that there was not just one ant on the ground, but a huge group of them crawling out from the grass and the ground.
"What kind of ant is this? Is it a monster?"
"How can a monster be so small? Aren't monsters very big?"
…
The ants came out and ran towards the villager's legs like hungry wolves seeing meat, and started biting them.
There were cuts everywhere, all bleeding and it was so painful that he cried out in pain countless times.
The village chief Wumu realized something was wrong and immediately shouted to the person in charge of the statue: "Where is the statue? Where is the statue?"
"Ma Laosan went to pee and was carried over there."
The head of the Wumu Village cursed.
If you want to pee, just pee. You are still holding the statue, aren’t you afraid of being scolded by the mountain god?
When Ma Laosan was peeing, of course he couldn't run with the statue in his arms. He just asked someone else to hold it and walked a little to the side.
To put it bluntly, he is afraid of death and wants to find someone to back him up.
When the man heard the noise, he stopped calling out to Ma Lao San and ran over here holding the statue: "Village chief, the statue is coming!"
The head of Wumu Village was cursing, "Ma Laosan wanted to pee, why did you run with the statue? Are you fucking sick in the head? The statue cannot be touched by filthy things!"
"I...I didn't let the statue get dirty. I'm far away from Ma Lao San."
"You can't hug me, either."
…
With the return of the statue, the group of ants retreated as if they had seen their natural enemy.
Seeing this scene, both the Wumu Village Chief and the villagers breathed a sigh of relief.
The chief of the Ebony Village asked the crowd to move back and not go too far away.
The ants didn't leave, but they didn't dare to take any action either, and they just stood there in a stalemate for a while.
