Seeing their stunned expression, the old man laughed loudly and continued, "Let me introduce myself. I am the mountain god here. Because I made a serious mistake hundreds of years ago, the goddess Nuwa was merciful and punished me to guard here for a thousand years. For so many years, I always thought that no one would help me to be free. Fortunately, the goddess Nuwa appeared and let you come."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, he immediately looked at Zhang Meng with kindness and awe in his eyes.
"You are the mountain god here!" Sheng Liyuan bravely stepped forward and stood in front of the old man, looking left and right.
After looking around for a while, he felt that the legendary mountain god was not the same as he remembered.
The old man turned around and laughed, "Yes, I am the mountain god, absolutely."
"So this is what your mountain god looks like." Sheng Liyuan touched his beard on his chin with a curious look on his face.
After hearing this, the old man just smiled and quickly looked towards Zhang Meng. "Little girl, you have the scent of Nuwa on you. From now on, your success will be determined by this blood, and your failure will also be determined by this blood. You must be very careful."
Zhang Meng was distracted for a moment and was about to ask him what he meant by this sentence. Just as the words were on the tip of her tongue, the old man's body suddenly disappeared bit by bit.
Slowly, he disappeared from their sight with a smile.
When the old man disappeared, countless white spots suddenly scattered around the temple.
"Ah, my wound is healed." "Mine is healed too." At this moment, someone shouted loudly.
Zhang Meng quickly looked at the man next to her and found that his face had also become much redder.
At this moment, she looked up at the place where the old man disappeared, with a look of admiration in her eyes.
After all this commotion, when everyone wanted to continue resting, they found that it was already dawn outside.
While eating breakfast, Zhang Meng found that in just a dozen minutes, several groups of people walked past her.
"See? Those guys saw how powerful your talisman paper is and wanted to get a few from you. Humph, shameless people."
Sheng Liyuan sat next to Zhang Meng, glanced at the person who pretended to pass by them, and spoke secretly.
Zhang Meng also glanced at those people, but chose to pretend not to see them.
The talisman on her body is life-saving, and she doesn't have the kindness to give it to these people who can only talk.
"Eat quickly." Gu Mingtai poured half of the meat from the can in his hand into her bowl.
Zhang Meng frowned when she saw this and said, "I don't need so much. I can't eat it all."
Gu Mingtai frowned and took a little back, "Bear with it for a while, I'll get you something to eat at noon."
Just then, Liao Qingting came back with an angry look on her face.
Zhang Meng stopped eating, looked up at her sitting next to her and asked, "What's wrong with you? Who made you angry?"
Liao Qingting took a hard bite of the compressed biscuit in her hand, her face full of anger. "It's all because of those people up front. I'm so pissed off. They actually threatened my grandfather, asking him to get some talisman paper from you and give it to them, otherwise they wouldn't follow you on the road down. Isn't that infuriating?"
When Zhang Meng heard this, her face turned unhappy. Not only did those people not care about their mouths, they didn't even care about their faces anymore. It was really ridiculous.
It was half an hour later that we finished breakfast.
Zhang Meng didn't know what Mr. Liao said to those people. She only knew that when they set out, everyone's faces were not very happy.
This time they walked for two consecutive days, and everything was relatively safe during those two days.
That day, everyone packed up early in the morning and continued on their way. Zhang Meng had only just learned from Sheng Liyuan yesterday that this mountain was actually called Nuwa Mountain. It was said that there used to be a Nuwa Temple on this mountain, which was very popular at the time. Later, for unknown reasons, the Nuwa Temple suddenly disappeared overnight, and it still remains a mystery.
Because this place is said to be a bit magical, almost no one dares to climb this mountain over the years.
When we reached the top of the mountain and looked at the flat plain, only four words flashed through everyone's mind: rarely visited. There was nothing here except grass or trees.
Just when everyone thought they had found the wrong place, suddenly a sound came from the bushes, as if someone was there.
"Who?" Several people were frightened when they heard the voice and asked loudly at the same time.
"Why are you shouting so loudly? Do you want to scare an old man like me to death?" A figure emerged from the bushes, looking disheveled, like a beggar.
"Master!" As soon as Gu Mingtai saw who had come out, he immediately stepped forward and supported him.
Monk Jingchen smiled at him and said, "My good disciple, why did you come just now? I am almost starving to death. Do you have anything to eat?"
After asking, Monk Jingchen searched his body and finally found a lot of food. He shouted excitedly, "There's even meat! That's great!"
Then he started to bite into it in big mouthfuls. Seeing him eating so fast, Zhang Meng was really worried that he would choke to death, so she quickly took out the water she had with her and gave it to him, "Master Jingchen, don't eat so fast, be careful not to choke, drink some water first."
Monk Jingchen quickly took it and took a big sip, then grinned at Zhang Meng, "Hello, little Meng girl, now I, an old man, am finally alive."
At this time, Mr. Liao came over and asked hurriedly, "You stupid monk, you got here before us. Have you found Nuwa's cave?"
Monk Jingchen stopped eating, stood up immediately, and cursed at Mr. Liao, "You damn old devil, I haven't even come to settle the score with you yet, and you're here first. Come here, or I'll beat you to death."
Seeing that something was wrong, Gu Mingtai quickly hugged Monk Jingchen who was about to rush forward to beat someone up.
"Good disciple, don't stop Master. Let Master beat him up. He's such a jerk! How dare he lie to an old man like me?"
Mr. Liao was being escorted back. When he heard his words, he immediately stopped. "What do you mean, you stupid monk? How did I lie to you? Please stop talking nonsense."
"You didn't lie to me. Look here, it's nothing but plains. I've searched everywhere, and there's no Nuwa Cave as you mentioned. And you still say you didn't lie to me."
Mr. Liao denied it vigorously, "Impossible, my people won't lie, this place is where Nuwa's cave is."
"How is it impossible? Look at this place, there is no Nuwa Cave you mentioned. I have been searching here for three days and three nights, but I couldn't even find the door." Monk Jingchen wanted to get angry when talking about the sad things that happened in the past few days and nights.
"Impossible, it must exist, but you just haven't found it. This place is Nuwa Cave." Old Master Liao has always believed it.
Seeing that the two old men were about to fight over this matter, Zhang Meng quickly stepped forward to stop them. "Two old men, if you have anything to say, can we calm down and talk it out? Don't hit people all the time. It's not good. Sit down quickly and let's talk it out slowly."
