"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes."

When the man heard Zhou Li's words, he was first frightened, and then hurriedly nodded like pounding garlic, for fear that the frequency of his order was not fast enough to make this brocade-clothed uncle unhappy, and his family's head was rolling all over the ground.

"Then you just take a good deep breath and say slowly, what is this place called, okay?"

Zhou Li's kindness made the man breathe a little, he avoided Guo Lingyun's complicated eyes on the side, looked at Zhou Li, as if he saw a savior, swallowed his saliva and said:

"This, this is the mountain god village."

"Ah, Sanjin Village."

Zhou Li suddenly realized, and then he asked:

"I see that you are dressed luxuriously, and the silk and satin gold and silver jewelry on your body are more luxurious than those of the Shangjing Xie family, do you have your own livelihood?"

Hearing Zhou Li's inquiry, the man's eyes subconsciously turned around, then nodded again and again, and said: "Don't hide it from adults, the small ones do have some livelihood in Beiliang City, selling some Hu people's rouge and powder, and they have quite a lot of money." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Li nodded, and then he suddenly waved his hand, pressed Tang Guan's arm on the side, turned his head, and said bitterly:

"Tang Guan, don't be so vicious, didn't people just tell the truth and deceived us? You don't have to cut off his internal organs with cold and poison, and then use heat to break through his facial features, and finally cut his lower body and stuff it into beeswax to light the sky lantern, which is unreasonable. ”

Although he didn't know what was going on, Tang Guan nodded subconsciously. Zhou Li withdrew his hand, looked at the man who had washed his face in cold sweat, and said with a smile:

"Go on, you go on."

"No, no, no, the small one doesn't make a living, the small one is a lazy man who is greedy and lazy, he doesn't farm and can't do business, he eats in addition to sleeping on weekdays, I just said the wrong thing in a moment of confusion, adult Haihan, adult Haihan!"

Looking at the man who was eager to kneel on the air and kowtow to himself, Zhou Li nodded with satisfaction, and then he patted the other party's shoulder, touched the other party's fine silk satin, and said with emotion:

"The material of this robe is Shu satin, I remember that my mother wanted to buy me a horse before, and when I saw that a horse cost three taels of gold, I hurriedly dissuaded it and bought a silk cloth with my hand."

Zhou Li suddenly turned around and nodded to Guo Lingyun, who was a little dazed. Looking at the man's somewhat dazed look, Zhou Li smiled and said:

"What do we mean by this hundred, do you still want a mother?"

"Yes, yes."

The man reacted, crying and said: "Don't, don't, I'll say everything, I'll say everything, if I don't have my mother, I will really become a waste, I will definitely starve to death on the streets, don't cut off my way of life, I can do anything." ”

"Let's talk about it."

Zhou Li put away his kind smile and peaceful tone, stood up straight, and asked calmly: "Where did the money for this dress come from, what were you doing just now, what is this mountain god, and what is enshrined on the platform." ”

Collapsed weakly on the tree, the man hung his head and his face was full of frustration, and after organizing the language, the man spoke.

Sixty years ago, this village was not called Sanshen Village, because it was surrounded by water on three sides, and most of the people in the village lived by fishing, so this village was called Shuili Village.

For a long time, this village has always been a bitter cold area, one is far away from the town, and there is no way to sell live fish, only cheap salted fish. The second is that the village is surrounded by water on three sides, and the bridge has not been repaired because of poverty, so the people in the village have to wade through the water if they want to go out.

Later, a wildfire burned the impoverished village to the ground, and fewer than 30 people escaped from the village, and the rest either died in the fire or were swallowed up by the river while crossing the river.

The 30 or so people who fled were left out, they had no skills, and their belongings at home were burned to the ground, so these people who escaped were no one, no ghosts, and could only beg in some villages and towns to make a living.

And all the turning points have to start with the mountain god.

These 30 or so people were destitute, hungry and full all day long, without clothing and food, but in such a miserable situation, they miraculously did not die a single one.

On a cold winter day, these people suddenly heard a voice from afar. The voice told them that you were poor and poor in Shuili Village before, and that was because you believed in the vicious river and forgot the sacred mountain on which you were back. If you want to return to your hometown, come and worship the mountain gods.

When these people heard these words, they rushed towards their former hometown like a demon. At this time, they found that even if they had not eaten for dozens of days, the water they drank was only dirty, and they slept in the cold snow at night, they were still alive and unscathed, which made these people strengthen their faith in the mountain gods.

Soon after, they gathered in the ruins of the wildfire, and then they saw the mountain god.

The face is white and beardless, the waist is wrapped in gold, and the feet are silver.

Among the broken bricks and tiles, a stone statue as clean as new stood quietly on the charred skeleton. The Maitreya-like mountain god shimmered with golden light under the adoring gaze of these people, and then used the power of the mountain god to repair the entire village and build a stone bridge over the river.

After distributing the gold bars on his waist to these thirty or so people, the mountain god disappeared between the mountains and forests. Relying on the gold bars given by the mountain god, these 30 or so people quickly ran the village, and at the same time changed Shuili Village to Shanshen Village.

If it's just here, it's just an ordinary folk weirdo. But thirty years later, after the death of these thirty people, everything quietly changed.

First, a stone bridge collapsed, killing more than 20 villagers. Later, the mountains collapsed, smashing several houses and crushing the lives of two families. There were evil tigers in the forest coming down the mountain to kill, and the mosquitoes also became bloodthirsty and cruel, and for a while, the entire mountain god village was in a panic, and everyone was worried about their safety.

Suddenly, on the same day that the village was established, the statue of the mountain god suddenly reappeared in the village. At this time, the statue of the mountain god was in tatters, and the original gold and silver were gone, replaced by a painful face and a mutilated body. He told the people in the village that he had given all his gold and silver to the village in order to save the village.

At the beginning, the thirty people remembered his kindness and continued to worship the temple with incense, but later, the thirty people left, and the later people thought that it was just a legend, so the mountain temple was also abandoned, and the mountain god who originally sheltered one side gradually declined.

And he came this time to tell these mortals that if they don't worship the mountain god again, then the mountain will fall, and the mountain god village will fall into decay and ruin.

Of course, the mountain god also knew that these people were poor, so he said, "As long as you give me money, I will use my supernatural powers to make you earn more money."

At first, a few villagers who were suspicious of the letter pooled money and made offerings to the mountain god. Within two days, these people suddenly appeared in front of everyone again, wearing gold and silver.

Since then, the people of the mountain god village have regarded the mountain god statue as a recreated parent, and they continue to worship it and earn money.

Later, people found that as long as they threw money at the mountain god, wealth would be endless.

Steady stream.
