Chapter 134: Mountain God Messenger
The sun was setting, and it was already dusk, and the afterglow was sprinkled on the river, casting a gorgeous veil.
By this time, all the farmers had already packed their things and were ready to go home.
A group of men dressed in coarse linen clothes with a faint smile on their faces, rushed to satisfaction with what they had done today.
"It's almost time, I don't know who will become the messenger of the mountain god today, anyway, we don't have much chance. ”
"That's not it, the mountain god doesn't look down on us rough men. ”
"Don't say it, hurry up and take a look, the triennial mountain god election messenger has begun, let's go and join in the fun." ”
"It's nice to say it's fun, but in fact, I don't want to see if I can be selected, okay, let's go. ”
A group of men walked noisily forward, all with smiles on their faces.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew so hard that the men couldn't open their eyes.
They kept walking until they reached their destination.
At this time, the place was surrounded by hundreds of people, and among the hundreds of people, there was a huge wooden platform with a chair on it, and a set of red clothes.
An old man walked up to the wooden platform tremblingly, looked at everyone with a smile, and spoke.
"Everyone is quiet, although it is said that it is a triennial mountain god election messenger, but I also want to remind everyone again that this matter is very important.
Later, the mountain god will personally select the messenger, and the selected person will change into a groom's garment, and then send it to the mountain temple.
After three days, if the mountain god leaves a new messenger, then the last messenger will appear, and we can just bring him back.
On the other hand, if the mountain god does not want this messenger, we need to choose a new messenger to serve the mountain god until the mountain god is satisfied.
Every mountain god envoy will serve the mountain god for three years, and at the same time, the family will also have a lot of money, do you understand?"
"Understood, understood!" There were almost all men around, and they all had smiles on their faces.
Not only that, even if it is a man, he must be a man who has not married to be qualified to be the messenger of the mountain god.
I don't know exactly what it is, but I know it's a good thing.
Mainly people who used to be messengers of the mountain gods, as long as they went up the mountain, their families would inexplicably begin to become rich.
It's like going to the family where the son goes to work in one place, and then the whole family becomes rich.
After coming back, the person who served as a messenger also has great benefits, even if he doesn't get sick too much, the key is to live a long life.
This custom of choosing messengers by the mountain god has been passed down for hundreds of years, and the village chief's family is the abbot.
The old man who spoke just now was the village chief, and he had also been an envoy for three years.
Therefore, with the people here, being the messenger of the mountain god is a very honorable thing that makes them excited.
In the corner, two people were talking in a whisper, dressed in coarse linen clothes similar to those of the villagers.
"No, I said Lao Jiang, what do you think, don't you really want to be a messenger, right?
"Whisper a little old Song, your cultivation has improved well, but it doesn't mean that you are invincible, you see that you are still so much worse than me. I do this for a reason, so don't worry, let's take a look. ”
The two talked in a whisper, it was Jiang Li and Song Shuyang.
Soon after Wang You left, Jiang Li also found other parts of Xue Yan's body, and Xue Yan also entered retreat.
Because Xiao Hei has been following Xue Di, when Xue Di was in retreat, he also took Xiao Hei with him.
Going around and around, it seemed that Jiang Li was the only one left, and he was actually a little uncomfortable in his heart.
I didn't expect that after going through so much, he still couldn't leave anyone by his side, he was always the only one, and it was really the fate of a lonely star.
Just when Jiang Li was about to experience alone, Song Shuyang suddenly appeared, and he was sent by Lu Dingsheng.
It turned out that Song Shuyang's body had completely recovered, and under the guidance of Lu Dingsheng, his cultivation was still one level higher, reaching the middle stage of the transformation stage, which was also an unexpected joy.
With Song Shuyang joining, Jiang Li's life is naturally not so boring.
No, during their travels, they encountered such a strange thing, I heard that there is a custom in this village, and there is a messenger chosen by the mountain god to serve.
When Jiang Li and Song Shuyang heard this, they became interested at the moment, so they naturally joined in the fun.
Obviously, there is no such thing as a mountain god in this world, and he naturally does not believe in the existence of a mountain god.
The only possibility is that the spirits are doing the trick.
It was precisely for this reason that Jiang Li moved his mind to come and investigate.
It just so happened that this village did not reject outsiders, and it seemed that they did not care at all that the mountain god envoy would become an outsider, and readily agreed to their participation.
The two of them followed the customs of the locals, changed their old clothes, put on the clothes of the villagers, and followed the candidates who came to be envoys.
Song Shuyang's temperament was a little noisy, and let him stay here obediently and wait, which was really a little embarrassing for him, so he whispered to Jiang Li.
"Lao Jiang, do you say that the spirit is powerful? I thought, it doesn't look like the worst thing, don't you see that those envoys have all returned, isn't this village also very peaceful?"
"Yes or no, we still have to look at it first, and I can't be sure if I haven't seen the spirit with my own eyes now. Okay, stop talking, get ready to start, let's see what tricks this 'mountain god' is playing, and restrain a little. Jiang Li reassured him.
"Got it, be careful. Song Shuyang also responded.
After saying this, both of them stopped talking and looked intently at the large wooden platform above.
I saw the old man, that is, the old village chief, who circled around Prince Mu a few times, and then took out a paper crane from his cuff.
The paper crane fluttered its wings a few times and flew around the heads of everyone, as if looking for some target.
A moment later, a young masculine man stopped overhead.
The man was covered in a layer of golden light, and everyone cheered.
"Appeared, appeared, Mountain God Emissary!"
"It's Xiao Yang, this time it's him!"
The man known as Xiao Yang also had a smile on his face and a hint of relaxation.
Yes, he was able to solve a little problem for his family, no matter what he earned, no matter what the messenger of the mountain god wanted to do, he didn't care.
"Xiao Yang, come up, bring your clothes back, and early tomorrow morning, we will send you to the mountain temple. The old village chief smiled, as if he was honored.
Xiao Yang stepped forward obediently, took his clothes, and bowed to everyone, "Okay." ”
Gradually, the people dispersed, waiting for the next morning to go up the mountain.
