Chapter 396 Transfer
After watching Ji Zhi and Gu Qingqing settle the cubs in Qi Yan Fu Di, Ji Rong returned to Long Feng Mountain. She handed over the food and supplies for the 120 cubs to Jiao Jue, then sat by the Source Regeneration Pool. She poured half of the Source given to her by the mountain turtle into the Source Regeneration Pool, and gave the other half to the mountain water as food and supplies for its future collection of spiritual veins.
Then, she sat comfortably on the ground, spread her wings, and told the mountains and rivers, and the mountain without hearing what she had seen and heard in Hezhou. She said, "God, the mountain tortoise is really narrow-minded. If I had known that He had eyes that could see into people's hearts, I would have come back long ago. Why would I have asked Him to accompany me to Hezhou?"
Shan Shui laughed and said, "He doesn't mean to deceive or tease you. He will talk more about whoever he likes, but since he can see and calculate, it gives others a sense of being spied on."
You have known Him for several days; you should have seen that He is very honest. Otherwise, I would not have given Him the eyes of God.
Ji Rong said with a crooked beak, "But He always makes the hundred sons call me 'Lord Ji,' which is really annoying. I feel uneasy after hearing it so often."
With a smile on his face, he pointed to the Source Regeneration Pool beside him and said, "This pool came because of you. If you wish, all the children of the mountain and the gods of the future will probably have to call you Lord Ji. I will do the same."
Ji Rong looked back at the pond, then at the tree trunk, and joy finally welled up in her heart again. She tilted her head back triumphantly and laughed loudly, "Hahahaha."
After laughing, Ji Rong decided to convey the important matter. She said, "My Lord, I heard from the mountain tortoise that the mountain rabbit that used to be with the mountain wolf is gone. The mountain wolf wants you to find it another guardian to guard the mountain. It said that either a mountain leopard or a mountain dog would be fine."
The surface of the mountain and water was slightly cold. He said, "Juzhou is bitterly cold. The mountain leopard has already gone to Tanghe Mountain and has stopped moving. The mountain dog is now with the mountain elephant and should be cultivating the earth veins on a plain in the western continent."
The terrain of Hezhou is uneven, so let's use a mountain dog; it is upright and intelligent by nature.
Ji Rong echoed, "That's right. The mountain wolf is glib and very clever, but it doesn't seem like a god; it's more like a real wolf."
Shan Shui nodded in agreement and continued, "Young friend Ji Rong, now that we have the source, we should head out." Then, He turned to Shan Wuwen beside him and said, "Brother, hurry up and pack your things. Once you're ready, we'll set off."
Shan Wu accepted the order and left.
Ji Rong also stood up and said, "Divine Lord, since Lord Xi has more than one Origin Mountain, shouldn't the Golden Mother Goddess and Lord Di Rong also have some? And what about the deceased Si Yuan and Nan Lu? Shouldn't they also have some?"
Shan Shui swayed the tiger tail behind him, lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then raised his eyes and replied: "Even if the Heavenly Mandate Palace and the Fortune and Prosperity Palace had reserves of origin, they were divided up when the main god died."
The source of the river would surely be heavily fortified, making it difficult to capture; this Si woman is usually very dutiful and has earned the trust of the Xi Lord, often holding multiple positions. It seems she let the mountain tortoise swallow the source mountain she was guarding.”
"So that's how it is." Ji Rong said with some regret, "Then, Divine Lord, as before, when the source is about to end, you must return."
Shan Shui nodded slightly and said, "Alright."
Then Shan Shui took the broken bowl off his head, held it up, pointed his finger towards the west, and waited for a faint light to appear there.
He poured some of the source that Ji Rong had given him into the bowl, took a sip, opened his mouth, and said in divine language: "I command the mountain dog to go to Taiyin Grotto in Hezhou to serve as the mountain god of the Taiyin Mountains."
As soon as these words were spoken, the spiritual energy in the air quickly gathered together and took on the shape of characters;
Then, they rushed into the bowl, and after sucking up all the source water in the bowl, the characters fell into the soil like little golden worms and disappeared without a trace.
Shanshui put the bowl back on his head. Shanwu, who had nothing to tidy up, was already waiting by his side. Shanshui transformed himself into a little tiger, sat on Shanwu's back, and headed towards Hezhou.
West Continent, Howling Plains
The mountain dog, which was running on the soft grass, was suddenly struck on the sole of its foot by a divine command. It pulled the divine word, which was still shimmering with golden light, from the soil, glanced at it, and then happily put it in its mouth. Then it called out to the front, "Mountain Elephant, wait for me."
The mountain elephant stopped in its tracks and remained motionless until the mountain dog caught up, then asked, "What is it?"
The mountain dog happily uttered the divine words, saying, "Mountain Elephant, look."
Upon seeing this, Shan Xiang frowned slightly and said, "Why did you have to go, elder brother? This matter should have been handled by Shan Hu or Shan Bao."
The mountain dog wagged its tail and laughed, "If we send them, the mountain jackal will be doomed."
The mountain elephant said with disgust, "The mountain wolf is a treacherous god. You should think carefully before you associate with him, lest you be led astray by him."
The mountain dog bowed its paw to the mountain elephant and said, "I know, I'll go now." Then it lifted its leg to run away.
The mountain elephant stretched out its trunk and lifted the mountain dog up, saying, "Wait a moment, open your mouth, and bring some supplies." Then it touched the mountain dog's head with its trunk, and a hieroglyphic seal flowed out of its nose.
Mountain Dog shook his head, pointed to the divine language still hovering in the air, and said, "You can keep it. My elder brother has already taken the travel expenses."
The mountain elephant replied, "These things originally belonged to you. Since you're leaving, how can you leave without taking anything with you?"
Listen to me, do not touch that divine inscription. The mountain wolf is fickle by nature, and you are too upright. To prevent it from changing its mind and harboring evil intentions later, you should take the divine inscription to Taiyin Cave in Hezhou as is and carve it into the temple as a warning.
The mountain dog grinned and said, "That's true." Then it opened its mouth generously and, after receiving one-tenth of the source water from the mountain elephant, it headed towards the Taiyin Mountains in Hezhou.
As soon as he left Xizhou, the mountain dog saw a small man riding a big yellow tiger with a broken bowl on his head waving at him. He quickly ran over, knelt down, and said, "Brother, why have you come in person?"
Shan Shui said gently, "I've thought about it, but I'm still not at ease. You're the third Shan Bei, so I should go and set some rules for Shan Bei."
Mountain Dog respectfully said, "Brother, there's no need to worry about such a trivial matter. Mountain Wolf is no match for me anyway."
The mountain elephant has already given me a portion of the source as provisions, and has also instructed me to inscribe my elder brother's divine words into the temple. I think the mountain wolf will not dare to harbor evil thoughts in the future. If it still does not change, the mountain dog will return it to my elder brother for disposal.
Brother, now that you have arrived in the Western Continent, please help the Mountain Elephants.
The western continent is vast, with thin soil layers; the mountain people are ignorant, with diverse beliefs and numerous sects.
They are mostly involved in the blood trade, outwardly respectful to us so that we have no grounds to act and cannot easily clean us up, but secretly they incite the cultivators under their jurisdiction to cause trouble; every time we repair a section, half of it is often trampled and destroyed.
Shan Shui nodded and said, "I understand. I will stay here. You should go to Hezhou Taiyin Mountain Range to take up your post."
The mountain dog nodded, bowed respectfully to the mountains and rivers once more, and then continued on its way to Hezhou.
