Chapter 62: The Mountain Temple
Three days after the giant tortoise died, the flood came. At this time, Lin Mo also understood why the giant turtle said that it was impossible for the villagers to move out within three days.
This not only means that the villagers are reluctant to give up their family property, but also because even if they give it up, they can't escape - this small village, like the original Zhaojia Village, is located in the mountains. Outside, not only are the mountain roads difficult to walk, but there are also tigers, leopards, wild beasts, and even some unspeakable filth. It is impossible to escape from the halfway point of the mountain where the village is located in three days.
Especially when the flood is unprecedentedly precarious, and the surging river rushes in with overwhelming force, easily filling the valley and crawling towards the mountainside, turning the mountain into a country, there is no need to fantasize about escaping.
"I haven't seen this kind of water potential in the earth world!" In the face of this unprecedented ferocious flood, Lin Mo's heart was heavy: "I'm afraid that the river gods in Inner 6 have all died!" ”
The heavenly court enshrines the gods to govern the heavens and the earth, and the water system is one of the indispensable ones. Not only the Dragon King of the Four Seas, but also the river gods stationed in the 6 rivers will be able to regulate the rivers and smooth out the wind and rain to avoid disasters. For example, the giant tortoise said that Lord Hebo is the river god of Xiaolian River.
If the river god had been in power and the river had been consciously regulated, floods would have been rare, let alone the current great floods!
Just thinking about it, seeing that the flood water had risen to his feet, Lin Mo took out the demon pill left by the giant turtle from his arms, the pearl that shimmered with moon-white light. As soon as the demon pill appeared, the flood that rushed like thunder rushed in front of him, and suddenly separated from the left and right very naturally, bypassing Lin Mo's body from both sides and rushing backwards, until three or five meters later, it slapped and gathered together.
This scene was very magical, and Lin Mo couldn't help but think of the even more magical scene he saw when he left Xiaolian Village: one hundred and twelve mortals who had eaten the meat of the old turtle were lined up, and just like at this moment, they opened up a space for the flood and saved a hut behind him that contained the assets of all the villagers!
Lin Mo sighed with great regret: "That old turtle's body can make mortals easily open the water line, if you don't die, if you cultivate for a while, you will be able to ascend to the god position by yourself!" ”
As a god with a great connection to the mortal world, the river god is not very powerful, in fact, most of these gods are like this, such as a piece of land. And in addition to the Heavenly Court's active enthronement, this kind of divine position can also be obtained by one's own cultivation, of course, you still have to go through the procedure of reporting to the Heavenly Court to obtain permission, otherwise there may be a Heavenly Soldier Heavenly General who will suddenly come down and cure you for the sin of disguising the Heavenly Court gods.
Of course, in the current world, this thing is impossible: the heavenly court has collapsed, how can the crime be punished?
Thinking of this, Lin Mo's face sank like water: Did he come to the world of Liaozhai by himself, was it wrong?
Before taking the initiative to enter, Lin Mo once flipped through the mythological biography to find a mythological world suitable for him. Because the experience in the world of Journey to the West and the world of the Legend of the White Snake made him deeply experience his weakness, so he had a requirement at that time: he must enter a mythical world that meets his level!
To be honest, it's not easy. Because almost all the myths and stories that can be recorded in "Myths and Strange Stories" are of high power, and the legend of the White Snake is already considered to have a low level of strength, and most of the lower ones are short, such as the small mythological story of Nan Ke's dream. This kind of story has almost no description of the world in which it is located, and he doesn't know whether it is strong or weak, and it took Lin Mo a long time to pick out "Liao Zhai".
The story of this world is very miscellaneous, there are fox fairies, snake demons, yakshas, Taoist priests, ghosts, Hades, and the characters are strange and strange, which is simply magical. But in any case, in the story of Liao Zhai, they did not show too much strength, and they never took the initiative to mention that there is a stronger force.
It is because of this that Lin Mo took "Liao Zhai" as an initiative to enter the world!
But unexpectedly, as soon as reality came in, it gave him a slap in the face: there is also a heaven in this world! And it is also the Heavenly Court of the Jade Emperor's Three Qings and Four Emperors! And what's even more ruthless is that the heavenly court of this world has been destroyed!
At first glance, this seems to be better, those immortal powers don't exist anymore, but when you think about it carefully, it's even more creepy: even the heavenly court has been inexplicably destroyed, isn't he, a small cultivator of the God Refining Realm, even more cannon fodder in cannon fodder?!
This kind of worry was already vaguely generated when he heard the news of the collapse of the Heavenly Court, and after witnessing the death of the old turtle with his own eyes, it was even clearer, which made Lin Mo involuntarily ponder: Is it wrong to come to talk about the world?
It's a very difficult question to answer, and it's a useless question: even if you come to the wrong place, can you still go now? The former Tang Qi luck in the Zhenguan Jade Ruler has been consumed, and the divine text on the Ziwei rune has also disappeared, even if you want to leave, it is impossible to leave just by saying go!
So let's be honest and move on first!
As soon as he thought of this, Lin Mo did not hesitate any longer, parted the flood under the protection of the demon pill, and headed towards the outside of the mountain.
The flood peak lasted for a long time, about twenty minutes later, the flood had the meaning of weakening, and it was not until the whole morning passed that the strength of the flood slowly subsided, and Lin Mo did not have to rely on the demon pill to walk.
Put away the demon pill, use the escape method, the degree of travel increased sharply, less than an hour later, I saw the surrounding environment change, vaguely out of the mountainous area.
It was then that he saw a temple. This temple is very dilapidated, not only the wooden door is broken, the wall is crooked, most of the paint color has been lost, and even the tile roof, a third of which is not known, seems to have been blown away by the wind!
But it was such a dilapidated temple, but Lin Mo instantly became stern: within five meters of this temple, there were no water stains! The walls are very dry!
"That's not right! When the flood peak was at its highest just now, it was completely able to submerge this temple, how could there be no water stains at all? ”
Thinking of this, Lin Mo's heart tightened and slowly stepped forward.
At the end of the walk, there was an amazing appearance: but seeing the flickering fire, someone actually lit a fire in this broken temple! Lin Mo released his divine sense, probed a little, and was stunned: A mortal scholar?
In the induction of divine consciousness, there is only one scholar in the broken temple, warming up by the flames!
Lin Mo thought about it carefully, lifted his mana, and stepped in.
"Ah, there are still people coming to the Mountain Temple at this time?" Under Lin Mo's undisguised appearance, the scholars inside immediately appeared, and shouted in surprise: "Late Zhang Liang, dare to ask Brother Taigao's surname?" ”
When Lin Mo left Xiaolian Village, the old man gave him a set of scholar's Confucian clothes, and Lin Mo had already changed into it at this time, except that he didn't wear a crown on his head, he basically looked like a scholar. In fact, Lin Mo himself wanted to wear a robe, but unfortunately Xiaolian Village didn't have it.
"Lin Mo." Lin Mo arched his hand: "I've seen Brother Zhang." ”
Zhang Liang also bowed his hand: "Brother Lin." After saying that, he looked at Lin Mo suspiciously, and asked, "Brother Lin, are you okay outside?" ”
His meaning is very clear, it is nothing more than such a big flood just now, how did you survive it? Lin Mo didn't answer, but asked, "Isn't Brother Zhang okay too?" ”
"I'm different, I'm protected by the god of the mountain!" Zhang Liang said casually: "Just now, the mountain god used divine light to protect the entire temple, and I avoided this flood!" ”
Lin Mo was startled, and immediately looked up at the clay statue enshrined in the temple: Mountain God Protection? Are there any living gods?
At first glance, he suddenly wondered: there was no spiritual light on the clay statue, but there was mana remaining!
The statues of the gods in the temple are not ordinary, and there will be a little spiritual light of the gods stationed there, so that whenever someone prays in front of the gods, the gods will know. The clay statue in front of him has no spiritual light, which undoubtedly means that the gods are not here at all.
This situation is nothing to the countless statues of the gods in the world like Guanyin, after all, even if it is this kind of power, there is no need for every idol to go in and take a foot, but most of the mortal regional gods such as mountain gods will only have one or two temples, and the statues are very important, and there is only one thing possible to remove the spiritual light: the mountain gods here have disappeared! And in combination with the situation, it should be like Xiaolianhe's Hebo who died.
But if there is a mana residue, it is interesting, according to what Zhang Liang said, there was a divine light guarding the temple just now, could it be that there are other cultivators here who have taken action to protect the temple and this scholar?
Lin Mo was a little unsure, squinted his eyes at the moment, and asked Zhang Liang how he came to this mountain.
It turned out that although this Zhang Liang was a scholar, he had no interest in reading, and his hobbies were all over strange flowers. Whenever there is a strange flower in the world, no matter the mountains and rivers, he has to rush to see it in person. Seven days ago, he met a flower fairy in a dream, and the flower fairy told him that in the depths of Xiaolian Mountain, there was a jasper epiphany about to bloom, which was a rare wonder in a hundred years. When he woke up, he thought of it, and he felt that his heart was moving, and he wanted to see if there was such a jasper epiphany. After thinking about it, after all, I like to occupy the top, so I simply packed some luggage and came to Xiaolian Mountain.
When he was thinking that his life was not long and he was going to die on the mountain, the flower fairy suddenly appeared on a wild flower on the side of the road, and told him that this mountain temple could protect him, so he quickly got into this dilapidated temple. Later, when the flood came, I saw the divine light released from the statue of the mountain god, enveloping the temple and opening up the flood, which was very magical.
Lin Mo stopped and groaned: Could it be that the flower fairy made a move? Just listening to this story, why does this flower fairy look so much like a goblin?
When he was pondering, he heard three or two crisp shouts, Lin Mo bounced up from the ground, turned his head to look, and saw a handsome woman in an apricot yellow shirt rushing into the mountain temple from outside, constantly shouting: "Help!" Help me! ”
When scholar Zhang Liang saw it, he was immediately overjoyed: "Flower fairy!" ”
