From the Late Qing Dynasty to the 21st Century

Chapter 41 Mountain God (please read more!)
After completing this series of things, Shen Luoxing calmly walked back to the county town step by step from the official road. With Shen Luoxing's departure, the land on this official road became extraordinarily solid.

Two days later, the county magistrate came back and called the major families in the city to discuss countermeasures.

This county magistrate is really funny. Three days ago, he heard that the British army was coming to Guang'an County, so he took his wife and children and fled to Linzhou Prefecture.

Now that Guang'an County has not been attacked, and the army has disappeared, the county magistrate ran back in a hurry, and now he is holding this rally, just to explain that he was from his hometown in Linzhou a few days ago After some things, I went back to my hometown to visit my relatives. I didn't escape from the battle. Of course, I said this to people who don't know the reason. I said it to the local family first, hoping that they would cooperate with my propaganda.

After the county magistrate agreed to a series of conditions, Shen Luoxing also guaranteed that there would be no remarks related to escape in the west of the city. It is a blessing to keep the official uniform.

Another day later, news of the disappearance of the troops led by the Justice Law Firm near Guang'an County reached the ears of the troops stationed in Xiamen, so the British military officers immediately decided to send [-] troops to search, and exchanged positions with local soldiers.

It didn't take long for a thousand soldiers to come to Ningbo by sea, and then marched towards Guang'an after handing over the local garrison troops, and successfully found traces of the garrison more than [-] miles away from Guang'an County, and according to the accompanying analysts According to the traces on the road, the law firm led by [-] troops had indeed marched towards Guang'an.

The officers of the troops immediately decided to search along the way, hoping to find those troops.

After half a day of searching, the search team came to a place more than [-] miles away from Guang'an, where Andrew had stayed. At this time, the officer looked at the clearly visible official road at the bottom of the mountain, and couldn't help but have a little doubt, "Obviously there is a The traces of the troops, and the large number of them, shows that they are not lost in the mountains because they can't find their way, since the official road is in front of them, it is impossible for them to continue walking through the mountains."

So the officer ordered to go to the official road and search along the official road to see if he could find any relevant clues.

In this way, a group of people walked on the official road and stepped on the heads of their colleagues. When the troops started to march towards Guang'an, there was a roar from the mountains on both sides, and then the mountains on both sides of the official road were in the same place. Landslides occurred. You must know that these days are still summer, and the mountains on both sides are in a state of lush vegetation, and landslides are not so easy to occur, let alone two mountains that are moving towards the same location.

The people walking on the official road were stunned on the spot, and then the troops in front received their lunch boxes at the speed of light. As more and more stones and clods fell, the official road was directly buried. From a distance, it looked like two mountains separated from each other. Make a contribution to link each other together.

Seeing that the situation in front seemed to have stabilized, the officer immediately ordered to go forward to see if he could rescue the wounded, and then sent 600 people out of the remaining 100 people. As a result, these 100 people had just approached the location of the landslide. Shan repeated his old tricks and killed most of the 100 people directly.

At this time, the accompanying analyst had already collapsed, and he fell down on the ground and shouted: "It is impossible to have such a coincidence. The probability of landslides on this kind of mountain is too low, let alone in a short period of time. It happened four times in a similar place, and I knew that God must exist, and this is God's punishment for us."

Dude, this blow turned this analyst from a staunchly materialistic scientist into a faithful believer in God.

The officer also has considerable scientific literacy. Of course, he knew that this incident was unusual. Coupled with the previous disappearance of the Yilu Army, the officer also became suspicious, especially at this time, when there was a rattling sound coming from the landslide in front of him. the sound of.

All the troops were immersed in the shock just now, and no one noticed what happened. When everyone heard the sound and looked forward, there was a stone statue standing above the pile of soil accumulated by the landslide. In the afterglow of the west-slanting sun, everyone can see that the stone statue's facial expression is stiff, neither happy nor sad. It looks a bit divine in the setting sun, and it seems to have the horror of an abyss demon when you look closely.

The soldiers couldn't bear this sense of terror anymore, and they all ran away from the original road, and the officers were dragged forward, until the official road, those rolling stones, and that stone statue were no longer in their sight.
I heard that the officer and the accompanying analyst retired shortly after returning to the station, and the two returned to their hometown to run a church together.

After the soldiers returned to the station and reported what they had seen and heard, the highest military officer who came this time pondered for a long time, and finally sighed faintly, "This land has been rich and beautiful for us since ancient times. Mysterious, although we can defeat it in the war now, there are still too many things we can't understand, don't go to Guang'an County in the future, let's bypass it on the march."

The roar outside the city was too loud, and the residents of Guang'an County couldn't bear their curiosity. In addition, the British army hadn't come over for so long, so some residents of the nearby towns were bold Go to the source of the noise to check.

As a result, I saw this scene. A large amount of earth and rocks slipped from the mountain and piled up on the official road. The ground seemed to be stained dark red with blood. There was a stone statue standing on the two mounds, but only the back could be seen, because It was against the light, so I couldn't see clearly. A townsman braved up his courage to look forward and found that there were many corpses of foreigners in the fallen stones. They seemed to be troops, and there was a word carved in small seal script on the back of the stone statue. , the townspeople were illiterate and couldn't recognize it, but they wrote down the word.

When the people in the county town received the information and rushed over the next day, the rolled stones and clods were still on the road, but the stone statues that the townspeople had seen before had disappeared, so the county began to have different opinions. It was said that it was just a stone, and the townspeople misunderstood it. Some also said that it was the golden body of a mountain god who came to suppress the invaders. What's more, they said that it was all the imagination of the townspeople, and there was no stone statue at all. In the end, all the sayings were reversed by the word he saw drawn by the townspeople.

Because this townsman has never studied at all, he will never know more than a hundred characters, and they are all commonly used characters. As for the character he drew this time, it is a "lotus" written in a small seal script. Therefore, more and more people believe that there is a story about a god statue going down the mountain to kill the enemy, and because there is only one Qinglian mountain with the word lotus in a hundred miles, so the stone statue in the rumor has become Qinglian mountain. mountain god.

And this is also Shen Luoxing's plan, to guide the people through public opinion, make them believe that there is a mountain god of Qinglian Mountain, and also scare off the enemy army and prevent them from intruding again. After all, it is a waste of time to wait for them every day. It is simply killing two birds with one stone.

Then another rumor spread in the city. Shen Luoxing went to Qinglian Mountain a few years ago. After Shen Luoxing went to Qinglian Mountain, it was like the county magistrate bought Qinglian Mountain, and then built a house on Qinglian Mountain. It must be Shen Luoxing According to the instructions of the mountain god, as long as you live on Qinglian Mountain, you can keep safe in the troubled times.

The news spread was well-founded, from Shen Luoxing's glorious deeds combined with his actions, the credibility was simply incredible, so it was soon known by the entire Guang'an County.

As a result, quite a few wealthy businessmen and landlords came to the Shen family to inquire whether this was really the case, and even the county magistrate sent people to inquire privately.
