In the beginning, the spread of these news was carried out quietly in a few courtyards. But the speed and breadth of its spread are astonishing. Because, in a very short period of time, there were several groups of people from outside the mountains who deliberately went to Xinghua Village to secretly investigate the truth in the name of visiting relatives and friends. There are even people who lead visitors to the foot of the North Mountain and point out the exact location of the shrine. Let the visitor respectfully kowtow for a while, burn incense for a while, and then mumble and pray for a long time before leaving satisfied. The Golden Lotus family is also gradually becoming noisy. From time to time, people would come and go in her court. They went in with all kinds of offerings, and then came out empty-handed, and everyone had a mysterious look on their faces. The entry and exit of visitors from outside the mountain aroused the curiosity of the villagers, and invisibly drove some villagers to actively join in.

No matter what the commotion outside the mountain was, the vast majority of the villagers still didn't believe the rumors. The so-called "foreign monks are good at chanting", their ancestors have lived here for generations, and they have never seen any strange and magical places on the North Mountain. Besides, Jin Lian's style of behavior is not very flattering to the villagers. Isn't she just an ordinary peasant woman, and she once seduced a wild man and caused a lot of trouble. became a goddess who knew everything overnight, and the ghost believed it.

On the boundary of Xinghua Village, the one who knows this rumor relatively late is the xylophone. When she was chatting with Technician Qin, she inadvertently said it by Technician Qin.

At that time, Technician Qin only told the story of surprise, saying that there was a goddess in the village, who was more capable than her, the secretary of the village party branch, who could not only treat people, but also know the blessings and disasters of the world. Xylophone was very surprised, so he asked the ins and outs of the matter. Technician Qin told everything he heard and saw, and was surprised that she would be kept in the dark. Maosheng, Jing'er and others said that she never believed in these cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, and even annoyed her family members to tell her about these boring things, and she didn't have a free time to talk all day long, and no one told her.

Technician Qin has lived in her house for more than a month, but she has never understood the temperament of the family. It's a family that talks about everything, but each has its own thoughts. In addition to safeguarding their own interests, the family can be highly united and unanimous to the outside world. Other things have taken on a business-like posture. It makes people think that a family living in a courtyard is like a passerby.

Xylophone didn't take this kind of thing to heart. She thought that it was just that some people had no worries about eating and drinking in recent years, so they had to make a little noise when they were very bored, so that they could pass the long and dull days. Every day, she still deals with the affairs of the village in a hurry, and relies all her energy on the winter management of the apricot forest.

The management of the apricot grove is nearing completion. The winter shear production of apricot forests that have not been withdrawn from centralized management has been fully completed, and the finishing work of apricot forest coverage is underway. The so-called apricot forest mulching is to cover the apricot tree root plate with weeds, straw, dead leaves and other things. It is not only for heat preservation and moisture retention, but also for soil and fertilizer, increasing the content of organic matter, and promoting the growth of roots and new shoots. Technician Qin said that the covering work was originally to be carried out in summer and autumn, because the season had been missed, so it was made up in winter. It won't be too useful for the apricot tree this year, but it will be very beneficial in the future. Xylophone was naturally obedient to Technician Qin's words.

On this day, she walked around the apricot forest to see if the quality of the coverage met Technician Qin's requirements. Before she knew it, she had reached the foot of the North Mountain, following a path that had been stepped on by the villagers, and walked upstream to the dam. I had just climbed the high hill, and before I could catch my breath, I suddenly noticed that there was a large wooden box with a strange shape placed on the top of the high hill. From a distance, it looks like a small temple. She thought to herself, maybe this is the so-called shrine. She wanted to get closer and take a closer look. Before he could take a sour step, he suddenly saw a flame-like thing emerge from behind the rocks, and he looked around the shrine for food to eat. [End of Chapter]
