After the divorce, I became a mountain god

Hearing Chen Shishi's words, Xu Bo'an was immediately confused.

what?
The mountain god of Yushan?

Li Bai's poem?

He is a god after all, how could he have the nerve to take other people's poems as his own?
This is typical plagiarism.

No, wait a moment.

The mountain god of Yushan?

That's what exists in the bonsai world.

Li Bai is from Xu Boan's world.

How could the mountain god of Yushan know Li Bai's poems?
Can he also cross boundaries?
So, he is also a person from the same world as himself.

With doubts in his heart, Xu Boan hurriedly asked: "Chen Shishi, please tell me more about this matter quickly."

Chen Shishi swallowed lightly, organized her words, and then said: "According to legend, the mountain god of Yushan once transformed into an ordinary person, participated in the imperial examination, and won the honor of second place in one fell swoop. It is said that This poem was written by the God of the Mountain during his examination in Kyoto. He thought about how he had not returned to Wushan for many days. This poem is easy to understand, catchy to read, and can arouse people's resonance. It became famous all over the world as soon as it came out.”

When Xu Boan heard this, he immediately understood.

To put it bluntly, this matter is like a scene from any time-travel drama. The reason why it is clear is because the nine-year compulsory education is solid enough!

As we all know, in ancient times there was no universal policy such as compulsory education. Those who had access to poetry, culture and even writing were literati from relatively good families. Although some TV shows and history say that many people came from poor families and worked hard. Stories such as learning, and then changing one's destiny, etc., make people feel that even poor families could afford to go to school at that time.

But in fact, in feudal society during most periods, it was already very difficult to have access to writing. If your family was really poor, you wouldn’t even know the writing, and you would have spent all your money just to survive. The whole family's energy was gone. Therefore, the so-called poverty among these literati is just a relative concept, compared to those in the same class who are better off.

Therefore, the person who plagiarized "Quiet Night Thoughts" must have received an orthodox education, and must still have knowledge and literary background. Although it may be difficult to create a masterpiece by himself, plagiarizing a few ancient poems by his predecessors Poetry is still very easy.

Anyway, no one in the bonsai world knows about Li Bai and his poems, and no one cares about plagiarism.

But when Chen Shishi talked about the mountain god of Yushan, Xu Bo'an felt that it was somewhat similar to the memory he had just obtained not long ago of being a mountain god in a poor bookstore with the Duan family.

Is it possible that the mountain god of Yushan who plagiarized Li Bai's "Quiet Night Thoughts" in Chen Shishi's mouth is the poor scholar?
If this is the case, compare the legend with Xu Bo'an's memory.

Then this mountain god of Yushan, that is, the poor scholar, is not a native resident of the bonsai world, but the holder of bonsai. In other words, he really comes from the same world as Xu Bo'an?
Or maybe this scholar is Li Bai himself?
Xu Bo'an was startled by his sudden thought.

Poet Li Taibai!
The mountain god of Yushan cannot be Li Bai, right?

How could the mountain god of Yushan be Li Bai?

Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!

At least this time is not comparable.

Li Bai was a poet of the Tang Dynasty a thousand years ago.

According to the inherited memory obtained by the incense wish that Xu Bo'an had just obtained not long ago, isn't this mountain god of Yushan the poor scholar who has good relations with the Duan family in southern Xinjiang? Didn't that happen hundreds of years ago?
On the basis that the time ratio between the real world and the bonsai world is almost the same, the life trajectory timelines of Li Bai and this poor scholar do not overlap at all, and they are still very different.

Of course, the God of Mount Wushan cannot be just one person. He must have had a predecessor.

Could it be said that Li Bai was the last mountain god of Yushan?
If this is true, it would be amazing.

And if this is the case, there must be many authentic works of Li Bai handed down in this bonsai world, right?
Thinking of this, Xu Bo'an asked again: "Chen Shishi, apart from the poem you memorized just now, do you know other poems by this Master of the Mountain God of Yushan?"

Chen Shishi shook her head and said: "No more. I once asked my husband at the private school this question. He said that it is a great honor for us to have this immortal poem spread in the world. The God of Mount Yushan After all, you are immortals. Even if you walk in the human world, it is only a handful of times. Even if a masterpiece comes out, it must be circulated in the circle of immortals. We mortals may not have that blessing. "

When Xu Boan heard this, he fell into deep thought.

This is different from what I thought.

If the mountain god of Yushan who wrote "Silent Night Thoughts" was Li Bai, of course, with his level, this poem would not be the only one left in the history of the bonsai world. After all, the inspiration of a literati is a very mysterious thing, and he must It has to be expressed
Even if he is not Li Bai, but has traveled from the world he is in, according to this person's knowledge analysis, it is naturally impossible for him to only know this poem.

After all, as I said just now, those who have access to writing and literature are still wealthy and can afford to go to private schools to receive education. In this case, it is definitely impossible for him to learn only one poem, even if he has no cultural background. They have all crossed regions and come to this different world, so it is impossible to just copy this song.

There is a saying that goes well, the reason why people behave themselves is because there are restrictions. There is no such restriction here. I believe no one can hold back their own desires. Think about it, the whole world calls you the Saint of Poetry and Poetry. God, what kind of glory is this? Under the temptation of such fame, who can just copy such a poem and then stop? Even a mountain god would find it difficult to resist. After all, the name Shixian sounds much better than a mountain god.

In this case, it is impossible for this mountain god of Yushan to come from his own world, let alone Li Bai!

Thinking of this, Xu Bo'an suddenly felt worried.

If the mountain god of Yushan who created "Quiet Night Thoughts" is not Li Bai, nor is he a person who mastered the secrets of bonsai from his own world and can travel through time, then the final possibility is that this song "Quiet Night Thoughts" is The mountain god of Yushan learned it from others.

Then there is no doubt that this "other" is naturally a person from the world where Xu Bo'an lives. In other words, this poem was passed from the bonsai holder to the mountain god of Yushan.

According to the logic just now, he has already given the first poem, and there must be other poems coming later.

But now the result is indeed gone. In other words, after that person gave the first poem, he was no longer in this world before the second poem was circulated.

There are two explanations for not being in this world. One is that he returned to his original world, which is the world where Xu Boan is now, and never came to this bonsai world again. This is almost impossible, after all, no one can resist Golden Finger. usage of. The second explanation is very cruel. The second possibility is that he is dead. As for the reason, Xu Boan had no way of knowing.

But according to normal people's thinking, it is definitely not normal for someone to die so easily despite being connected to a god. Maybe, he was given by the gods at that time... Thinking of this possibility, Xu Bo'an suddenly became wary.

After all, for the local gods, when it comes to eradicating outsiders, according to the laws of the dark forest, they are the righteous party and there is nothing wrong with them.

After all, the law of the dark forest makes it very clear: for any civilization, they cannot judge whether other civilizations will pose a threat to them, so the safest strategy is to "strike first" and eliminate any civilization that may threaten them. . It's like being in a dark forest. Each animal cannot tell whether other animals pose a threat to itself, so they must always be alert and ready for possible attacks.

Thinking of what might happen, Xu Bo'an was even a little scared. He had performed too many sacred appearances before, so he was a bit too high-profile. Will this cause some unnecessary trouble?
Xu Bo'an couldn't help but remind himself again: He must protect some of his secrets, otherwise this unknown world may not bring any terrible risks.

After thinking for a long time, Xu Bo'an didn't stay any longer and returned directly to the mountain temple. He took Li Bai's original copy of "Mocking King Li Yang's Reluctance to Drink" and returned to the place with a thought.

In the mountains next to the market in Xishan Town, two little guys, Xiong Da and Dachuan, were lying on the ground sleeping boredly. Suddenly, the two little guys opened their eyes almost at the same time.

There is movement!
Xiong Da muttered for a moment, and then he saw Grandpa Mountain God jumping down from the tree.

Xu Boan walked up to the two little guys and warned: "Xiong Da, you and Dachuan should go back to our temple in Kaoshan Village. It is our own territory and is safer. I have something to do and have to leave for a while."

Xiong Da cleverly nodded. Said: "Okay, I understand, sir."

Yes, it's getting late and it's time to return to the real world.

If he had stayed any longer, the tunnel where the accident occurred would have been cleared out in the real world, and he would not have been discovered by then, and then he would appear inexplicably again, which would be hard to explain clearly.

However, Xu Boan is still a little worried about where he will appear if he returns to the real world.

According to normal logic, if Xu Boan travels back in time, his destination should be where he came last time.

When you come to the bonsai world, you can decide according to Xu Bo'an's subjective wishes within the scope of the bonsai's current display.

Because after all, Xu Boan has absolute control and perception of every inch of land in the bonsai. But in the real world, Xu Boan is more like an ordinary person.

It is precisely because of this that Xu Boan is a little worried.

After all, when he came here, he was in a tunnel that was collapsing, and he didn't know what the situation was in the tunnel now. Is it being rescued or has it been dealt with?

What if there is a rescue operation going on in the tunnel over there and I rush over there, will I be hit by rocks?
Or, would it happen to appear in front of the rescuers, and it would be a bit hard to explain such a thing as being transformed into a living person?

Xu Bo'an was just thinking about how to return to the real world safely and silently, when he suddenly felt a summoning feeling in his mind again.

With experience, Xu Boan instantly deduced that this was a summons message from the Chenghuang Temple in Shanyang City.

Xu Bo'an hesitated for a moment, thinking that he hadn't thought about the problems he might encounter and how to deal with them when he returned, so he might as well go to Shanyang City again. After all, coming here this time has consumed nearly a hundred rays of incense and will power, so it would be good to make a little more money to recoup the original cost.

Thinking of this, Xu Bo'an said to Xiong Da and Dachuan: "Okay, let's set off. Let's separate here."

"Okay, sir, let's leave now." Xiong Da responded and was about to leave. Dachuan squeaked twice to say hello to Xu Bo'an, then he jumped up in a hurry and jumped on Xiong Da's neck. It looks like the two little guys are actually getting along very well. I should have known that Xiong Da was very repulsive to Dachuan before.

Soon, Xu Boyan came to the familiar Chenghuang Square in Shanyang City with a thought.

Then, I saw the madman in white from before coming again.

Looking at the man in white kneeling on the futon mat not far from the statue, Xu Boan was quite moved.

When Xu Bo'an saw him before, the old guy still looked unruly and arrogant.

He has become a completely different person than before.

The man in white in front of him looked respectful, and he looked much more honest and well-behaved.

In front of him, in addition to a large number of newly placed incense candles on the incense table, there were also many new tributes, including chicken, duck, fish, melons and fruit snacks.

From this point of view, this guy also knows the rules quite well, and he is a person who knows how to advance and retreat, and knows the current affairs.

Xu Bo'an said softly: "Why did you call me here?"

When the man in white heard Xu Boan's words, a smile of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.

He kowtowed hard and said with an excited expression: "Thank you very much, Lord Mountain God, for being willing to see me. I am finally looking forward to seeing you, Lord Mountain God. What a blessing to the people." Xu Bo'an is also a veteran in the workplace, and this man's expression is fake at first glance. Fake.

Xu Bo'an repeated again: "To tell the important point, why did you come to see me?"

The man in white said: "Lord Mountain God, it's like this. I heard that Lord City God is fond of calligraphy, calligraphy and painting. It happened that I had a good picture scroll there. I just went to get it. I hereby offer it to Lord City God as a thank you to you. The grace of not killing just now.”

After the man in white had experienced a journey in the clouds, his feelings towards Lord Cheng Huang had gone from disbelief to doubt to full confidence.

Although he was afraid of Lord Chenghuang, he also knew that danger and opportunity coexisted, so he racked his brains to form a good relationship with Lord Chenghuang.

When Xu Boan heard this, he was also quite interested. After all, he had just obtained an authentic copy of Li Bai's work, which made him think that there might be many antique treasures from his own world in this place.

Thinking of this, Xu Bo'an was somewhat looking forward to what kind of treasure this one would be.
