Chapter 15 The Mountain God Appears

Li Erhu calmed down the girl's emotions, and then put all his attention on the tiger.

After walking out of the shadows, the tiger suddenly stopped.

Li Erhu didn't dare to take it lightly, while getting ready to fight, he pulled the girl back slowly.

He knew very well that facing the most dangerous beast in this mountain, he had to keep a close eye on its movements, and he must not turn around and run away, otherwise he would only leave his vulnerable back to this deadly hunter.

At this moment, the stone houses closest to this place lit up with fire.

It was the few families who were awakened by the screams.

The adult men of these families had already put on their clothes, lit the torches, and opened the door with vigilance. After looking at each other, they took their weapons and went to the place where the sound came from.

After all, Qiugang Village is close to deep mountains and old forests, where there are fierce beasts such as tigers and wild boars.

To survive in such a place, vigilance is essential.

This is not the first time that someone screaming in the middle of the night has happened to Qiugang Village.

The last time was three years ago, when the wild boar king rushed into the field, smashed into the barn, and destroyed a lot of food.

Therefore, after hearing the terrified scream of the girl, the whole village came to life.

Adult men in every household quickly got up and dressed, went out with weapons, and soon gathered together with the large army, rushing towards the direction of the sound.

The flames became more and more intense, and Li Erhu knew what happened in the village without looking back.

He said "Oops" in his heart, the tiger in front of him was not something that the villagers could scare away.

With the speed and strength it displayed when it instantly killed the Wild Boar King, no matter how many people came, they were just delivering food.

Li Erhu was a little anxious, he wanted to warn the villagers of Qiugang Village, but he didn't dare to act rashly as the tiger in front of him was staring at him.

Just when the atmosphere froze, the tiger suddenly yawned, glanced at him, then turned and walked towards the mountain temple.

Li Erhu was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously stopped his back steps.

At the same time, the first batch of villagers has arrived here.

By the light of the moon and the fire, they also saw the tiger exuding a dangerous aura all over its body.

"tiger!"

"It's a tiger!"

A man holding a crude spear couldn't help exclaiming, and several other men quickly stepped forward, armed with various weapons, and protected Li Erhu and his sister behind them.

The leading man tilted his head slightly and asked in a low voice.

"Er Hu, what's going on, why are you here?"

"...It's a long story, I'm afraid I can't explain it in a short time."

Hearing this man's question, Li Erhu didn't know how to explain it for a while, so he could only prevaricate it first.

The man frowned and glanced at him, and didn't have time to worry about anything, and immediately looked at the tiger vigilantly.

Perhaps because he heard the footsteps of several people, the tiger paused, turned around slowly, and glanced at the people in front of Li Erhu.

Seeing this scene, everyone became more vigilant. Several men standing on both sides held spears, stared into the tiger's eyes, and moved their steps slowly, as if they wanted to spread out and surround the tiger.

"do not move!"

Li Erhu suddenly shouted loudly.

The people around were stunned for a moment, but subconsciously stopped.

The man standing beside Li Erhu frowned again, and asked in a low voice, "Why?"

"Because it doesn't want us to go there..."

Li Erhu replied softly, he already understood what the tiger meant: "As long as we don't go over, it won't hurt us."

"In the past? Where?"

"Mountain Temple."

Mountain temple?
Hearing this sentence, the man froze for a moment, and when he was about to continue asking, an exclamation attracted everyone's attention.

"Mountain... Grandfather of the Mountain God!"

Shocked and excited exclamations sounded.

Everyone looked at the man who exclaimed, and then followed his gaze to look forward.

I saw a tall and burly stone man walking slowly out of the forest. Behind him, there were two half-sized tiger cubs following his steps.

"It's Grandpa Mountain God!"

"Grandpa Mountain God has appeared!"

Whether it was the villagers who arrived before or those who came later, they couldn't help shouting excitedly when they saw this scene, and crowded forward one after another, wanting to meet the mountain god they had believed in for so many years.

Seeing this, Li Erhu's heart tightened, and he quickly shouted.

"do not--"

"Roar!!!"

Before the words were finished, the tiger leaped forward, opened its mouth wide, and roared at the crowd, with bloody murderous intent flashing in its eyes that were as round as copper bells.

Everyone exclaimed and stopped, held up their weapons, and backed away with horror on their faces.

Fortunately, the tiger didn't intend to kill people. After everyone retreated to a certain dividing line, it stopped and glanced at the silent people.

At the same time, the Stone Man Mountain God had already walked to the side of Fu Youzhi's body.

Li Erhu was extremely nervous, with cold sweat dripping from his forehead, he quietly grabbed his sister's hand, trying to take the opportunity to slip away.

As soon as he turned around, Li Erhu's eyes met a pair of eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling——

It was the little squirrel that was elusive.

At this moment, it was standing on his sister's shoulder, looking at him with a half-smile.

"You... when did you come?"

Li Erhu stammered a bit.

He already had ghosts in his heart, and when he saw this little squirrel that was elusive, he was immediately frightened and did not dare to move lightly, and the courage he had just summoned disappeared without a trace.

The little squirrel glanced at him contemptuously, then looked at the stone man and mountain god ahead.

Li Erhu followed its gaze, and saw the stone man and mountain god squatting down, stretching out a hand to put on Fu Youzhi's head.

After about half a minute, Fu Youzhi, who was lying dead, suddenly opened his eyes, sat up suddenly from the ground, and slowly turned around with his bruised nose and bloody face, looking at Li Erhu in the distance.

"Cheat... a corpse?!"

Li Erhu couldn't help taking a step back, his eyes were extremely frightened.

The girl standing behind him rolled her eyes and fainted on the spot.

Li Erhu noticed the girl's movement, and quickly grabbed her arm. The little squirrel who was originally standing on the girl's shoulder jumped up and jumped onto Li Erhu's head, looking at the fainted girl speechlessly.

"This is too intimidating..."

Lin Zhongtian curled his lips, no longer suppressing the speed of the gray mist.

In an instant, a steady stream of gray mist escaped from the gray ball. Under Lin Zhongtian's conscious control, starting from the brain, it flowed to the limbs along the veins and blood vessels in the body.

As Lin Zhongtian stood up, the bruises on his face gradually subsided, and the broken nasal bone repaired automatically.

Soon, the damage that Li Erhu brought to this body completely disappeared. Although there were still some dried blood stains hanging on his face, it looked less terrifying than before.

Not only that, but the face of this body has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

The facial features including the nose, eyes, and mouth have been slightly adjusted, becoming more three-dimensional and beautiful. The originally black and yellow teeth also quickly loosened and fell off, and a mouthful of white teeth grew again.

In addition, his figure has also become more straight, and his muscles have become fuller.

After wiping off the blood hanging from his face, a tall young man who looked to be about twenty years old appeared in front of everyone. Fu Youzhi's shadow could be vaguely seen in his facial features, but he had already turned into another person completely.

"Is this what a human body feels like?"

Lin Zhongtian couldn't help stretching, his handsome face was full of joy and smiles.
