Guyuan Town.

The size of this town is comparable to that of a small town, and the streets are also bustling with people, quite lively, and full of atmosphere.

But as the three of them walked along the way, the most common topic they heard was about the temple located on the hill to the west.

Ahri listened to the talk and gradually became interested, and proposed, "Shall we go to the temple on the mountain, and the people say that it is very spiritual." ”

She had heard many legends about the gods from people's memories and from what she heard along the way.

Each of these gods is omnipotent and possesses supreme supernatural powers.

But I've never seen it.

She wondered, is there such a god on the mountain in Guyuan Town? Otherwise, why does everyone say it's spiritual?

When Akali heard this, she pouted: "Even if the spirit can go anywhere, if it is really so spiritual, wouldn't everyone in Gu Yuan Town be rich?" It doesn't hurt to go over and take a look. ”

The main thing is that she can hear the topic of mountain temples everywhere she goes, and she is also quite interested and wants to go and see what it is.

What kind of temple can make everyone in the town praise it, and it attracts a lot of outsiders.

"Then let's go check it out."

Lu Qi didn't have much of an opinion either.

So the three of them went all the way west, and soon came to the foot of the hill where the temple was located, and the long staircase in front of them meandered upward.

On the stairs, there are pedestrians up and down, and even if it is almost noon, there are many people who come to worship on the mountain.

The three of them slowly went up the mountain, and after a short time came to the halfway point of the mountain, where the terrain suddenly opened up, and there was a small temple.

The temple is divided into a main courtyard and two side courtyards, which are made of red bricks and tiles, and smoke often wafts out of the temple, and people come and go to worship in and out.

At noon, there are not too many people, and Rao is everywhere.

At this moment, a person in the temple wearing a Dharma robe with a solemn and calm face stepped forward and took the initiative to accost: "It's rude, there is nothing in the lower ancients." I see that the three of them are extraordinary, and they are also here to worship the mountain gods? ”

The words were addressed to Luki.

After all, he was the most normal dress of the three, Ahri was wearing a cloak, and Akali was wearing a mask, and both of them covered their faces.

That is to say, Lu Qi's gas meter is extraordinary, and his appearance is dignified, and he has a background at a glance.

Lu Qi replied: "Yes, the three of us passed by Guyuan Town, and heard that the mountain god was extremely manifest, and we wanted to come to worship." ”

Hearing this, Gu Wu smiled calmly: "It's the townspeople who are too elevated to me, the mountain god manifestation is real, but it's not as exaggerated as the outside world says, the three of you, please come with me, talk while walking." ”

He seems to have the intention of leading the way.

The three of them followed.

Akali thought for a moment and asked, "What do you mean by not being that exaggerated?" ”

"Now it is rumored that he made a wish to the mountain god and tried all kinds of things. However, how can the mountain god fulfill every wish excessively, only the person who meets his eye, the wish he made can be fulfilled. ”

Gu Wu walked in front and replied.

Akali continued, "You mean, the mountain god is real?" ”

Gu Wu stopped and glanced back at her: "Naturally, it's true, otherwise how could so many people come." ”

Akali said a little strangely, "Then why haven't you heard of it before?" ”

She knew that the land of Ionia had a 'spirit', and that in this land full of magic, many spiritual individuals were born.

Both strong and weak.

According to her understanding, this mountain god should be the guardian spirit of Gu Yuan Town.

But as far as she knew, these guardian spirits basically stayed in the spiritual realm, how could they take the initiative to interfere in the realm of reality and fulfill the wishes of so many people?

"Before the war, the mountain gods never took the initiative to interfere in the mortal world." Gu Wu looked back and continued to lead the way, while replying, "However, the war has spread to Gu Yuan Town, looking at the devastated town. He decided to show up to help the land recover.

At first, people came to the mountain just to ask for peace, but after they were sheltered, more people came, and the news of the mountain god gradually spread.

As a result, more and more people went up the mountain, and their wishes began to differ. Naturally, the mountain god could only fulfill these prayers as much as possible, and later not everyone could get a response from the mountain god, and the mountain god began to respond only to those who were destined. ”

As he spoke, he had already led the three of them into the compound from the main entrance, and then headed towards a temple.

There are many people lining up to worship, facing a stone-colored statue of the mountain god, and the action is extremely reverent.

The statue of the mountain god is very tall, close to three meters. It has a large mouth, thin eyes, and no nose, but has two long beards.

Like a human but not human, it gives people a thick and kind feeling.

The three of them were not surprised by such appearances, after all, in the land of rune, there were more strange-shaped creatures.

It's just that Lu Qi felt a little familiar for a while, but he couldn't say it.

But his sixth sense wouldn't deceive him, and from the moment he entered the temple, he felt a pair of eyes secretly staring at him. but not from all around, but from heaven.

It was as if there was something in this temple staring at him, and after thinking about it, maybe only the mountain god not far away had this ability.

"This is the mountain god?" Akali asked, looking at each other.

"This is a statue of the mountain god, not the mountain god himself." Gu Wu looked at the stone statue with a little more reverence in his eyes, and then said, "The mountain god rarely reveals his true body, even I have only seen the mountain god himself once, and it was when this temple was crumbling. ”

"Oh."

Akali nodded, and she looked around again, feeling that something was wrong.

She felt this way from the moment she walked into this monastery.

But looking at the harmonious scene around me, I couldn't tell what was wrong for a while.

And the same is true of Ahri, who smelled something bad in this monastery.

At this time, the three of them had already followed Gu Wu into the temple hall and came to the place where the stone statue was three meters away.

"Even if the three of them are not from Gu Yuan Town, they can pray to the mountain god. It would also be a good thing if you could get a response from the mountain god. ”

Gu Wu smiled and handed the three of them incense.

Akali took it and asked, "If you pray, what do you pray?" ”

"You can wish for anything, and if you want to get something, you can make a wish. Many people came to the temple asking for children, for wealth, and for a good harvest. Gu Wu smiled, and then said, "The mountain god has vast magical powers, as long as he is willing, any wish can be fulfilled." But the premise of everything is that people who are related to the mountain god can be selected by him.

At the same time, the mountain god has a degree in his heart, and even if some excessive and exaggerated wishes can be fulfilled, they will basically not be realized. ”

"Speaking of which, I once met a villain with an amulet that he had begged from your temple."

"Since he is the god of the mountains who protects the world, why do you give amulets to those wicked people?" ”

Gu Wu sighed softly: "The talisman was made by us with the divine power of the mountain god, but it has nothing to do with the mountain god himself. If it is true as Your Excellency said, it can only be said that we do not know anyone. ”

This reason was also said in the past, Akali snorted faintly, and did not continue to ask.

After all, even she was deceived by Erniu's appearance.

"It's the turn of the three."

Gu Wu watched the person in front of the stone statue leave at this time, and then motioned to Lu Qi and the three of them, "Just pray sincerely, if you don't get a response from the mountain god, please don't be disappointed." ”

The three of them nodded and stepped forward.

The long incense in his hand was lit, and bursts of incense began to spread in the temple.

When I came to the front of the stone statue of the mountain god, I looked up at this stone statue up close, and I only felt a sense of insignificance from my heart.

Akali was a little skeptical at the moment.

Let's not say that this mountain god is so powerful, but I have never heard of it before, according to Gu Wu, he only appeared during the war.

But in the latter one, he responds to whomever he wants to respond to, and this cow can't help but blow too big.

Putting aside the superfluous thoughts in her heart and dismissing her thoughts, Akali held the incense and bowed slightly, and began to pray: "If it is really so manifest, let me become stronger." ”

Then, she closed her eyes and waited for two seconds, but she didn't feel anything. He opened his eyes, stepped forward and put incense in the incense burner, and looked at the two Lu Qi on the side.

Soon, the two of them also opened their eyes and planted the incense.

"If the three of you are interested in the amulets in the temple, you can also come to the side hall with me." Gu Wu looked at the three of them and spoke up again, "In addition to the talisman, there are also evil talismans, settling home talismans, and so on. ”

Lu Qi shook his head: "This is not necessary, we don't have much money on us." ”

"I see that the three of them are extraordinary, and I am willing to give three of them three talismans for free, just to make a good fate."

Gu Wu said, he had already taken out three talismans from his pocket and handed them over.

Lu Qi didn't accept it, but smiled and said, "In that case, these three talismans will be given to those ordinary people on our behalf." ”

A smile appeared on Gu Wu's face, and he withdrew his hand without embarrassment, and responded, "That's fine." The three of them walked slowly, hoping that the three of them could be blessed by the mountain god. ”

He watched the three of them leave, and only then did he turn and head towards a side courtyard.

When he entered the side courtyard, which was empty, he walked quickly to a small room, looked left and right, and then pushed the door in.

After entering the house, he bowed slightly and said in a respectful tone: "God, the three of them left, and the talisman was not sent out." ”

The voice fell, and after a pause of two seconds, the mountain god suddenly responded from nowhere: "Well, I know." ”

Gu Wu immediately asked, "God, what should I do next?" ”

There was another echo in the air: "Just like usual." ”

"Don't need the villain to touch them more?" Gu Wuyan said, and a trace of worry appeared on his face, "Listening to what they said, it seems that they are just passing by, and I am afraid that they will leave in the next two days." If they're gone tomorrow."

"There's no need to worry." The mountain god seemed to smile faintly, "People's greed is endless, once they see some kind of hope, even a glimmer of it, there is no possibility of giving up."

Excessive interference can lead to suspicion. It's just like usual, I've released the bait, you just have to wait for them to come to the door again and continue to guide. This is the best ingredient I've been waiting for for a long time, and I can't afford to miss it. ”

His voice grew farther and farther away, more and more ethereal, until it was gone.

Gu Wu bowed his head respectfully: "Yes." ”

At this time, the three of Lu Qi had also gone down the mountain.

Akali said at this time, "What do you think? ”

Lucci asked, "What to see?" ”

"That mountain god, what else can you see?" Akali glanced at him, "Don't you think it's strange?" How can there be such a kind God in the world who fulfills people's wishes in such vain. ”

"It's not for nothing." Lu Qi thought for a moment and said, "After all, he also gained faith, and some gods don't live on this." ”

"That's right." Akali nodded first, and then quickly added, "But I still find it strange that any wish can be granted, is there such a braggadocio?"

Moreover, from the moment I walked into that temple, I had a strange feeling. ”

Her heart is not as perverted as Lucky's, but she is also very keen.

When Ahri heard this, he also said loudly: "I was in the temple just now, and I smelled some bad smells. ”

Akali frowned slightly: "Tell me more." ”

"But soon it won't smell anymore." Ahri didn't know why, and said, "Maybe it's because there are so many people going to the temple that it's hard for me to tell the difference." ”

"Yes." Akali sighed softly, thinking it was possible.

She knew that Ahri didn't have precise control over her own abilities at the moment.

I don't know if it's really the wrong smell, or someone's remnants.

Akali suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, what are you praying for?" ”

Lu Qi said: "Pray for this kind of thing, it won't work if you say it." ”

"Less nonsense." Akali glared at him, "I'm just trying to verify that kunai's words, but I want to see if that mountain god is really that spiritual." ”

There are so many people who go to the mountain temple, and many people say that Ling, she doesn't think it's fake.

It is impossible for so many people to join forces to deceive people.

This kind of deception is too fake, and it is pointless to deceive people.

So now she wondered what the hell was going on. Maybe one of the three of them will have their prayers come true.

Ahri said, "My prayer is to get news about my origins. ”

She doesn't have any worldly desires, except for the desire for spirit, she just wants to know where her life background comes from.

Luqi said, "I pray for a lot of money. ”

Akali gave him a blank look: "What a vulgar wish." ”

Lu Qi smiled: "I'm not good at feeding you two rice buckets, don't you count how much food I eat a day?" ”

Ahri, who was inexplicably affected, blushed a little and lowered his head silently. She's been eating a little more lately. But it can't be helped, who made Luki's food so delicious.

Akali also closed her mouth suddenly, and looked away with some weakness. Raising his hand, he said, "Why are there so many people over there?" ”

As she spoke, she quickened her pace and rushed over like an enthusiastic melon-eating crowd.

Lu Qi looked at her back and smiled, and followed.
