Chapter 10 The Mountain God Takes a Wife

Sure enough, the idiot started to show his operations......

The little squirrel on the table couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Li Erhu was taken aback by his words, and stammered and asked, "You...... What do you mean by that? ”

"What do you say?" Fu Miaozhu sighed and said softly, "Okay, then I'll make it clearer, the mountain god wants to marry a wife, so use this pork leg as a dowry - Li Erhu, I remember that your sister-in-law will be married next year, right?" ”

"My sister? This ......"

Li Erhu was a little overwhelmed by the few words of Miao Zhu.

If someone else said this, Li Erhu would definitely not believe it.

But Fu Miaozhu is Lao Miaozhu's nephew after all, and Lao Miaozhu was one of his most trusted people before his death.

After hesitating for a while, Li Erhu finally chose to believe Fu Miaozhu's words.

He cautiously asked, "Then I don't want this pork leg, okay?" ”

"That depends on what Grandpa Mountain God means!" Fu Miaozhu was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "That's it, you send that pork leg tomorrow, and I will take the pork leg to the mountains to see the mountain god Grandpa and ask for you." ”

“……”

Li Erhu's face changed, and after thinking for a long time, he still nodded.

"Okay, that's it, I'll go back and get the pork leg!"

After speaking, Li Erhu turned around and ran in the direction of his house.

Fu Miaozhu hurriedly stopped him: "Hey, wait! ”

Li Erhu immediately stopped and wondered, "What else is going on?" ”

Fu Miaozhu explained: "Don't be in such a hurry, send it over tomorrow and think about it for one more day." ”

Li Erhu shook his head: "Don't think about it, I ......"

"Oops!" Fu Miaozhu interrupted Li Erhu's words with some impatience, "Li Erhu, what should I say, why don't you understand?" If you return the dowry now, wouldn't you be slapping the mountain god's grandfather in the face? ”

"Yes...... Is that so? ”

Li Erhu's eyes were a little confused, and he seemed to believe Fu Miaozhu's words.

Fu Miaozhu frowned and said, "Don't you know the character of the mountain god's grandfather better than me?" ”

"That'...... All right. ”

After hesitating, Li Erhu still nodded and agreed.

Just wanted to turn around and leave, Li Erhu suddenly remembered that the little squirrel of the mountain god's grandfather was still here, so he hurriedly ran into the temple again, and with a sweep of his eyes, he saw the little squirrel on the offering table that seemed to be in a daze.

"I almost forgot about you."

Li Erhu breathed a sigh of relief and walked to the offering table with his feet raised.

Fu Miaozhu followed his gaze, only to find that there was a little squirrel standing on the offering table.

At this moment, the little squirrel was looking at him in a daze, and his big smart eyes were full of doubts.

Lin Zhongtian was really puzzled, he didn't understand how this fool with the position of temple blessing dared to say this.

Didn't Li Erhu tell him that the mountain god really exists?

He actually dared to use the name of the mountain god to play tricks and make profits for himself?

Lin Zhongtian carefully recalled Li Erhu's words, and then recalled that when Li Erhu told about what happened to him today, Fu Miaozhu's small movements and micro-expressions suddenly understood.

This guy didn't listen carefully to Li Erhu's speech at all, but just vaguely listened to it.

also blamed Li Erhu, who did not describe the appearance of the mountain god in detail, but kept mentioning the tiger and the wild boar king.

If Fu Miaozhu didn't believe in any mountain gods, when he heard these words, he would only unconsciously confuse the concept of tiger and mountain god, and regard the tiger in Li Erhu's mouth as the mountain god.

Following this line of thought, that pig's leg was not a reward from the mountain god, but the result of Li Erhu's leakage.

"It's kind of interesting......"

Lin Zhongtian's eyes became playful as he looked at Fu Miaozhu.

No wonder he would say such things as going into the mountains to see the mountain god's grandfather, it turned out that he regarded the tiger as the mountain god.

Also, if he really believed in the existence of the mountain god, wouldn't it be okay to communicate with the mountain god directly in the mountain temple?

"Let's go, little one."

Li Erhu reached out to the little squirrel on the offering table.

Lin Zhongtian naturally couldn't be caught by him, so he jumped lightly, and while dodging Li Erhu's palm, he landed on his wrist, and then crawled all the way down his arm to his shoulder.

Li Erhu was also accustomed to the flexibility of the little squirrel, so he didn't care, turned around and hurried out of the temple gate.

Looking at Li Erhu's worried back, the corners of Fu Miaozhu's mouth curled, and he couldn't help but show a trace of pride.

Fu Miaozhu's full name is Fu Youzhi, is the nephew of the old Miaozhu, when he was young, he once followed the elders of the family to go out for a few years, and was introduced into a caravan by a friend of the elders as a buddy, more than ten years down, relying on a little cleverness to mix quite well, but later got involved in gambling, more than ten years of savings in just a few days to lose cleanly.

Fu Youzhi was naturally unwilling, so he found an old gambler who was also in debt, and wanted to cooperate with him to win back the money he lost.

But I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet.

It didn't take long for the people at the gambling house to set their sights on him.

It was only a temptation for him to nervously show his feet and pay a heavy price for it.

If it weren't for the backing of the caravan, I am afraid that the corpse would have been killed and thrown away at that time, and it would never be as simple as cutting off the fingers.

After this incident, Fu Youzhi was kicked away by the caravan and returned to Qiugang Village in a gloomy manner.

Someone asked him about his fingers, and he said that the caravan had encountered a mountain bandit who robbed the road, and because he resisted, he was regarded as a typical Liwei, and cut off all his fingers, but fortunately, the court sent someone to suppress the bandits and rescued him.

The villagers of Qiugang Village had little knowledge and didn't think much about it, so they believed his words.

It happened that the old temple Zhu died of illness, and the village pity Fu Youzhi's experience, so he took over and became the new temple of this mountain temple.

The villagers of Qiugang Village have been begging for food in the mountains since ancient times, and they are extremely in awe of the mountain gods.

But Fu Youzhi is different, he has seen the world when he was young, and his vision is far broader than that of ordinary mountain people.

When traveling with the caravan, he often temporarily stayed in various ruined temples in the wilderness, and when the situation was urgent, not to mention the incense money, even if it was a tribute in front of the Buddha statue, he had not stolen it.

Therefore, Fu Youzhi did not have much reverence for the mountain gods.

He did confuse the concept of tiger and mountain god in Li Erhu's mouth.

I thought that when the other party said that the mountain god appeared, he meant that the tiger hunted the wild boar king.

He didn't know how stupid what he was doing, and he was still thinking about how to get a greater benefit out of it.

Originally, his goal was just that pork leg, but seeing Li Erhu's performance, Fu Youzhi's mind came alive.

As mentioned earlier, the villagers of Qiugang Village are extremely in awe of the mountain god, and the incense has not been broken since the mountain temple was built.

Relying on the incense money from the mountain temple, Fu Youzhi is now not short of food and clothing, but he has a few wives, and the people in the village dislike his limbs and are unwilling to marry his daughter.

It just so happens that Li Erhu has a sister, who will be in time next year, and she looks quite smart.

Fu Youzhi followed the caravan to the north and south when he was young, and he had not been to the land of flowers and willows, and he could see at a glance that the girl had hidden inner charm, and she had long been greedy, but Fu Youzhi also knew that if it was a normal marriage custom, he would definitely not be able to marry such a girl on his terms, but now it is different.

Fu Youzhi felt that if this matter could be handled well, he might be able to think of a way to trick himself into a wife to come back.

But how, exactly?

"Let me think about ......"

Fu Youzhi was talking to himself, while casually picking up the wild fruit on the table, wiping it on his sleeve, putting it in his mouth and taking a bite.
