Chapter 01: The Inheritance of the Mountain God
"Master Mountain God, give me some hints. We've known each other for more than 20 years, you see that we are also a family, you can't watch your juniors so entangled, right? Lin Shan really didn't have anyone to look for help, so he could only say to the dilapidated clay statue sitting in the center of the house facing the door.
Lin Shan's home was actually a mountain temple before, but this mountain temple was dilapidated, and the old man needed a foothold to guard the mountain, so the mountain temple under the natural mountain was the best choice, and Lin Shan grew up in this somewhat strange parenthood.
The old man is a little superstitious, but also because he is too honest, he always thinks that this is the dojo of the mountain god, and he and Lin Shan are just blessed by the mountain god.
So the old man believes in the mountain god, although there is no incense in the mountain temple, but the old man insists on incense to the mountain god. As for the golden body of the mountain god, the old man has always lived respectfully in the mountain temple; He told Lin Shan that it would only be him and Lin Shan who would go, and the golden body of the mountain god master couldn't move!
Lin Shan doesn't necessarily believe in the mountain god, but he still listens to the old man's words, so although it is very weird, Lin Shan has never moved the golden body of the mountain god, in fact, there is nothing, he has lived here since he was a child, and he can't talk about anything else. This is the belief of the old man, Lin Shan also continues to incense the mountain god, hoping that the mountain god can bless the old man, after all, the old man is now lying on the mountain, which is also the territory of the mountain god. Other people's homes are dedicated to the God of Wealth, he is a forest ranger, and it is also said that the God of the Mountains is offered to the past.
"Rites and Rituals": "Mountains, forests, rivers, valleys and hills, can come out of the clouds, for the wind and rain, see monsters, all say gods." ”
Although he has always lived in the mountain temple, although the hideous statue of the mountain god is a little terrifying. But Lin Shan didn't care, this was something he was extremely familiar with, and Lin Shan believed that if there was really a mountain god, then the mountain god would also bless him, because he grew up under the nose of the mountain god. The mountain god also knows almost all of his secrets, no one has spoken in the past few years, and Lin Shan has not talked to himself or to the mountain god statue.
"There is endless wealth in the mountains, and there is also a lot of fun in the mountains. Little Housheng, you belong to this mountain, stay here, watch the change of seasons, watch the flowers, birds and animals, here will make your soul extremely calm. Lin Shan fell asleep groggily, and a somewhat ethereal voice sounded.
"Five hundred years, I'm tired. The way of heaven reverses the replacement of the five elements, and the gods and Buddhas of the heavens and the dragon kings of the four seas are ...... All gone, leaving only me, a little mountain god with low mana. The ethereal voice continued to sound, and the muttering revealed indescribable loneliness and exhaustion.
"You're not bad. You grew up under the watchful eyes of the little gods, and the little gods believed in you, hoping that you would take good care of this mountain forest in the future. Now that humanity is flourishing, we must not be reckless. Now that you have the inheritance, take good care of this mountain forest, and the little god will go! The ethereal voice spread farther and farther away, and disappeared completely.
Lin Shan suddenly woke up from his dream and pulled the switch on the bedside.
Lin Shan's heart was instantly frightened, and the statue of the mountain god who was still sitting on the altar although it was broken was now completely turned into pieces. What made Lin Shan even more shocked was that there was an iron fork at the head of his bed that looked very quaint, but it made people feel extremely familiar, which was a copy of the iron fork in the hand of the mountain god statue!
Lin Shan realized something, everything that happened just now was not a dream, it was all real!
The old mountain god exists, but now the old mountain god has passed the god position to Lin Shan, and Lin Shan is now the inheritor of the mountain god! And according to the words of the old mountain god just now, now there is only one immortal left in the world, Lin Shan!
pinched his arm until his arm was blue and purple, and then looked at the iron fork on the bed and the statue of the mountain god that had become a fragment, Lin Shan finally accepted this matter now, and he was also brought back to his senses by the huge impact of this subverted cognition.
"Master Mountain God, I really didn't expect you to be there all the time, don't mind if you were ignorant and always crawled on you when you were a child!" Although the statue of the mountain god has become a fragment, Lin Shan still respectfully lights incense and piously incense the mountain god.
"To be honest, it's really exciting. Your old man is so sure of my character, and I am also promising. Sitting in front of the broken pieces, Lin Shan muttered, "I'm a person who is favored by the gods!" That's enough of my stinky fart. As for your old man making me the new mountain god, although I don't have a clue now, but you can rest assured, I will definitely work hard. After all, I actually like the mountains, and I definitely want them to be better. ”
"Although I don't know what to do to be a good mountain god in the future, I can promise that I will do my best. Master Mountain God, you can rest assured. Lin Shan respectfully kowtowed and got up, looking at the statue of the mountain god that had become a fragment, Lin Shan was actually a little distressed.
Without the divine consciousness of the mountain god, these fragments are just the most ordinary clay statues. But if you treat these statues of the mountain gods casually because of this, it will really be a bit blasphemous.
"Master Mountain God, I think so. You and the old man are both people I respect and my benefactors. You can't live without the mountains all your life, and you also have feelings for them. You can be a companion, and it will be good for me to worship you in the future. Lin Shan thought about it, this is indeed a very good choice, and it is also the best choice that can be made now.
"After a while, I have plenty of money, I will rebuild the mountain temple for you, and I will reshape the golden body for you. Now you take care of the old man, and I will stay for a while. "Since this is the dojo of the mountain god, Lin Shan feels that it is better for him, an outsider, not to disturb the purity of the master's house too much, although now that the old mountain god is gone, Lin Shan can't care about anything.
The chattering Lin Shan finally found a way to deal with it that seemed good, and he felt that he would definitely be even happier in this way. Anyway, now sitting alone at the foot of the mountain, he has too much time to deal with these things, something that seems a little strange and even weird. Although he has become the inheritor of the mountain god, Lin Shan knows that it is better to keep a low profile now, and he has already specially told the old mountain god if he has not seen it, and now humanity is flourishing, even if it is a god, he has to keep a low profile, not to mention that he is only a half-baked new mountain god.
There is nothing wrong with keeping a low profile, and Lin Shan now needs more time to adapt to his unique identity; Although he is a mountain god, although Lin Shan has always endured loneliness, this does not mean that Lin Shan is out of touch with society, it does not mean that he does not need to communicate with other people; So in order not to become an outlier, it is best for Lin Shan to keep a low profile.
Returning to the bed and taking the iron fork, Lin Shan felt that at this moment he was the real mountain god; This is the magic weapon of the mountain god, which is what makes Lin Shan slightly different now. When Lin Shan held the iron fork, the iron fork also burst out with a lineup of light; Watching the iron fork slowly shrink and watch the iron fork slowly disappear, Lin Shan knew that now this iron fork can be regarded as a real artifact, and it belongs to the artifact of the new mountain god Lin Mountain.
The old mountain god didn't leave too much information for Lin Shan, and after thinking about the mountain god's duties and abilities carefully, Lin Shan felt that he really didn't have anything special now. Think about the treatment of the mountain gods you see, the lowest-level gods in "Journey to the West" who are bullied by Sun Wukong and demons and monsters from all walks of life; And it's not just a classic like "Journey to the West", in other places, the mountain gods basically play the existence of the lowest level of immortals.
Don't look at the situation of the mountain god in some film and television dramas and some mythological stories, but for Lin Shan, it is really good to become a mountain god; Even if the mana of the old mountain god is low, even if it is given to Lin Shan, it is not complete, but it is enough for Lin Shan.
Lin Shan is only twenty-four years old, although he has been doing the work of a small forest ranger in the past few years, but he is a young man after all, and he also has some of his own pursuits; Now with the inheritance of the mountain god, Lin Shan can also have more pursuits.
He loved the mountain, he liked to stay in this quiet place; Here he can live the relaxed and comfortable life he likes, and he doesn't need such a fast-paced life here. However, Lin Shan wanted to survive after all, he couldn't have been like this all the time barely living with an income of a few hundred yuan; So now that he has the inheritance of the mountain god, Lin Shan will stay here more firmly, because he believes that even if he stays here, he will be able to develop well, and there is an existence here that he wants to protect.
