Chapter 8: Grandpa Mountain God



In just a few seconds, the two little tigers ran to the stone man's feet, and excitedly circled around his legs, like two clingy house cats, appearing very intimate.

But the stone man ignored the two little tigers and instead walked towards Li Erhu.

Li Erhu came back to his senses instantly, cold sweat oozing from his forehead and running down his cheeks.

The situation was critical just now and he had no time to think carefully, but now seeing this tall stone man, Li Erhu finally understood why these three tigers were chasing him relentlessly.

Generally speaking, a tiger that has captured its prey will not actively attack humans. Even when dealing with a third party who is spying on its prey, it will often only use intimidation. After all, keeping the prey is the most important thing.

But the three tigers in front of him, having clearly killed a 600-pound wild boar king, still chose to attack him.

"So...it turns out that I was the one who offended the Mountain God!"

Figured it out!

Li Erhu suddenly understood everything.

He suddenly remembered what his father had warned him on the first day he entered the mountain. He said there were three things in this mountain that should not be provoked. The first one was the stone wall under a cliff. The stone wall was very flat and there was not a single crack on it.

According to word of mouth among the villagers, the stone wall under the cliff is the residence of the legendary mountain god.

The other two are the wild boar king who has been wearing armor for more than 20 years and weighs more than 600 kilograms, and the other is the tiger that Li Erhu met today.

It is the king of the mountain beasts in this forest, a patrolling beast appointed by the mountain god, and should not be easily provoked.

No wonder it suddenly attacked the wild boar king, it turns out that today is the day when the mountain god goes out to patrol the mountain!

"Li Erhu, Li Erhu, you pray for the mountain god's blessing every day."

"How come you don't recognize the Mountain God when he's right in front of you?"

Without any hesitation, Li Erhu immediately threw away his machete, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Grandpa Mountain God, I am an ignorant person who didn't know that today was your day for patrolling the mountain. I accidentally bumped into your carriage. I didn't mean to offend you. Please have mercy on me and spare my life for the sake of my Li family's generations of worship."

"I have a 60-year-old mother and a young sister who is not even 15 years old. I cannot die!"

Li Erhu spoke quickly and kowtowed continuously.

Perhaps feeling Li Erhu's piety, the stone mountain god finally stopped.

Li Erhu paused for a moment, but as he received no response, he did not dare to raise his head.

Soon, the stone man moved and stretched out a hand towards Li Erhu.

Li Erhu caught a glimpse of the shadow in front of him and felt a little nervous, but fortunately the stone mountain god just reached out and helped him up.

Li Erhu was a little flattered. When he looked up, he noticed that there was a little squirrel with lively eyes standing on the mountain god's shoulder.

Seeing this scene, Li Erhu felt inexplicably relieved and at the same time a sense of intimacy arose.

In his opinion, the mountain god who could let the little squirrel stand on his shoulders must not be a bad mountain god. The wild boar king must have his own way of death, which is why he was killed by the tiger sent by the mountain god...

Lin Zhongtian had no idea what was going on in Li Erhu's mind, he just found his actions a little funny.

But besides being funny, he could also understand it.

After all, when putting the tiger and the stone man together, anyone would think of the mountain god.

As for what Li Erhu said, Lin Zhongtian barely understood it. It should be a northern dialect, but the accent was a bit strange, different from the northern dialects he was familiar with.

Considering the other party's hunter outfit of simple leather armor, Lin Zhongtian reasonably guessed that the timeline of this parallel world should still be in the feudal dynasty stage.

Lin Zhongtian was very happy to see a living human being after a long time, and naturally he would not let Chang'an kill him.

The reason why I didn't try to stop it before was because the image of the little squirrel was really unimpressive. I had to wait for his rock body to arrive before I could officially appear in front of the humans in this world.

Of course, if Chang'an and the others really threatened the life of this human, Lin Zhongtian would definitely take action.

Looking at the excited and nervous Li Erhu in front of him, Lin Zhongtian took a quick look and soon set his sights on his forearm. The animal skin tied there was already tattered and the blood had turned the torn opening red.

Obviously, although Chang'an's claws were not long enough, they still easily broke his defense.

Lin Zhongtian thought for a moment, then reached out and touched Li Erhu's forearm.

Li Erhu was stunned when he saw this, and didn't understand what the mountain god meant.

But soon, a warm current flowed out from the hard rock fingers, covering the wound on his forearm and baking his entire arm warmly.

Although it is not clear what the stone mountain god is doing, it doesn't think it is a bad thing.

Therefore, Li Erhu did not resist at all, but was rather flattered.

Soon, the stone mountain god in front of him withdrew his arm.

Li Erhu looked down and saw that the four bloodstains that were still bleeding had completely healed.

“Okay…alright?!”

Li Erhu's eyes widened. When he came to his senses, his face was full of excitement. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed again.

"Thank you, Grandpa Mountain God! Thank you, Grandpa Mountain God!"

Lin Zhongtian looked at Li Erhu cheerfully, asked him to kowtow once, and then reached out to help him up.

As for the other party's gratitude and admiration, Lin Zhongtian naturally accepted it all.

To be honest, Lin Zhongtian has been in a very happy mood since escaping from the Gray Mist Prison. Not to mention positive emotions such as gratitude, harvest, and pretense, even negative emotions such as annoyance are a very pleasant experience for him at this moment.

His mentality has become very detached, but he himself has not noticed it yet.

When Li Erhu stood up, the little squirrel that was originally standing on the mountain god's shoulder suddenly jumped onto his head.

Li Erhu subconsciously stretched out his hand to grab it, but when his hand was halfway out, he withdrew it awkwardly.

After all, this little squirrel is able to follow the mountain god. Even if it is not a servant, it is at least the mountain god's favorite pet.

Li Erhu felt that he had to give this little face.

He can even sit on the shoulders of the mountain god, so what if he steps on your head, Li Erhu?

Li Erhu warned himself in his heart, turned around, and found that the stone man mountain god had already walked towards the big tiger.

Perhaps seeing that Li Erhu did not catch up, the stone man mountain god suddenly stopped and turned to look at Li Erhu.

Li Erhu understood what was happening and quickly followed the stone mountain god's steps.

The stone mountain god walked to the wild boar's corpse and touched the head of the big tiger that was eating.

The big tiger squinted its eyes at first, as if enjoying the caress of the stone man and the mountain god. Then it raised its head, glanced at the stone man, then turned its head to look at Li Erhu behind it, growled softly, and reluctantly stepped aside.

Li Erhu felt a little frightened by this look, but soon his attention was attracted by the actions of the stone man and mountain god.

The stone mountain god stretched out his arm, grabbed one of the wild boar's hind legs and tore it apart gently.

The strong hind leg was torn off like a dead branch from a dead tree.

Seeing this scene, Li Erhu was surprisingly not surprised.

After all, he is the mountain god, a real deity with magical powers, so it is not surprising that he performs any amazing actions.

What surprised and unexpected him more than this was the actions of the Stone Man Mountain God.

The mountain god actually threw the bloody pig leg to him!

Li Erhu quickly caught the pig leg, not caring about the blood flowing from the broken part. He looked at the mountain god in disbelief and flattered, and asked stutteringly, "Grandpa... Mountain God, is this a reward for me?"
