After the divorce, I became a mountain god
Chapter 359 New Discovery
Silk, tulle and thin socks!
When these two nouns are combined, it is self-evident what Xu Bo'an thinks of.
Xu Boan just didn't expect that Cui Valley was also rich in silk, a specialty that could be discovered and used by the music house.
But of course, from what Luo Cheng said, we also know that the silk products produced in Cui Valley are also very scarce and expensive.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be said that only the mainstays of a music troupe can afford it!
As we all know, music halls are places with high consumption!
No wonder the courtesan Chen Shishi has such a talent to make fishnets.
I guess even if she had never worn it, she must have heard her predecessors talk about it, so she had a general idea in her mind and it was natural for her to associate it with it.
I just don't know how the products of Cuigu compare to the popular stockings brand "Balenciaga" in the real world. After all, there is a famous saying, "I am not afraid of Mercedes-Benz and Land Rover, but I am afraid of stockings with letters."
Xu Boan said softly, "It sounds very good. When I have the chance, I would like to see your silk fabrics."
Luo Cheng agreed, "Don't worry, Grandpa Mountain God. Once our fairy trees sprout and our silkworms hatch, it won't be long before our silk can be produced normally. When that happens, we will be the first to invite you to appreciate the most exquisite silk in our Green Valley!"
Xu Bo'an said softly, "Okay, when the time comes, you can burn incense in this temple and call me! Also, your survival is not easy right now, so there is no need to place those tributes in this temple for the time being. It would be a pity to waste them like this!"
Luo Cheng sighed and said, "They are all mundane things that are not worthy of the Mountain God's attention. I am ashamed of this junior! In fact, this temple was built by our ancestor, the Cuiyi God. It is in line with the Feng Shui of this Cui Valley, gathering the spiritual veins of Cuiyun Mountain. It is full of mist all year round and is rich in spiritual energy. Even if it is not cleaned, it is spotless. In the early years, it was a good help for cultivation. Our ancestor also wanted to use this way to thank the Mountain God for his care. But now the spiritual veins in the mountain are exhausted, and the temple is a bit dilapidated."
"Spiritual energy? You know spiritual energy!" Xu Bo'an was shocked, and suddenly felt that as a mountain god, he should really have some means of cultivation.
This thing called spiritual energy is most likely the energy of immortals!
Luo Cheng smiled awkwardly and said, "I just heard this legend from my parents and grandfathers. I don't know the details."
Xu Bo'an then nodded with some disappointment, recognizing this helpless reality.
Xu Boan was a little disappointed, but after hearing Luo Cheng's words, Xu Boan looked at this extremely small mountain temple again and felt that this temple was not completely useless.
At least in Xu Bo'an's eyes now, the construction of this temple is quite unique.
If you observe it from top to bottom, you can find that this temple was not built randomly, but was built against the mountain with its back against the rocks.
The temple is cleverly integrated into the surrounding mountain environment by making use of the direction of the rocks on the cliff behind.
The temple is basically made of the rock wall of the mountain, as if it were a space carved directly out of the rock.
Only when you look closely do you realize that the rock has no signs of carving at all. It is full of naturalness, as if it was formed entirely by the magic of nature.
The texture of the stone is clearly visible, and every inch seems to carry the traces of time and stories of the mountains, adding a bit of simplicity and wildness to this small temple.
The top of the temple is covered with a thick layer of dried grass, probably to prevent rainwater from sliding in.
There are still traces of moss on it, but it is also cracked, as if telling the vicissitudes of time and the hardships of the disaster, making it look more rustic.
The sunlight shines through the branches of the dead trees on the mountain and falls on the roof of the temple in patches, adding a bit of mystery and tranquility to this small temple.
Looking further into the temple, there is only a simple stone incense table.
It is called an incense table, but in fact it is just a piece of stone protruding from the mountain. After being coincidentally enclosed within the temple, it looks more like a large staircase or platform occupying half of the space inside the temple, and it just happens to be used as a table!
In the middle of the platform there is a pile of cone-shaped objects made of small stones. This should be the shrine.
These stones are of different sizes and shapes, but they are carefully stacked together, so dense that they can almost be said to fit perfectly. They are obviously put together like a puzzle, piece by piece, to form a stable and solemn shrine.
In front of the shrine stands a wooden plaque with the words "The Honorable Positions of the Mountain God Grandpa and Mountain Goddess" written in vigorous and powerful handwriting.
The color of the wooden sign has become somewhat mottled, and the wooden base has even rotted, but the stripes and writing on the sign are still clearly visible, revealing a solemn and sacred atmosphere.
On both sides of the shrine, there were some simple offerings, including slightly shriveled wild fruits, some withered wild flowers, incense with only powder left, and candles with only oil left.
Although these offerings are not rich, each one appears so pious and sincere.
After all, in such a disaster-stricken environment, it is not easy to have the heart to find these things for offering.
Thinking of this, Xu Boan nodded with relief.
It seems that these little guys in the Green Valley are quite pious to the mountain god.
Putting himself in their shoes, Xu Bo'an took into account their difficulties, so he said just now that they don't need to visit the offerings for food in the near future.
"My fellow fairy friend Cui Yi is very thoughtful." Looking at this small temple that was built against the mountain and integrated with the mountain, which can be said to be a natural formation, Xu Bo'an said with emotion.
Xu Boan wanted to say something, but suddenly, he felt weak.
Xu Boan then realized that the burning incense was about to go out. Xu Boan left a message and said, "Okay, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. If you need anything in the future, just burn incense and call me."
Luo Li knelt down immediately, and Luo Cheng and others behind him also knelt down, shouting in unison: "Farewell, Grandpa Mountain God!"...
The incense finally went out, and Xu Bo'an returned to the mountain temple inside the bonsai.
The decoration of the mountain temple is almost finished. The sunlight shines through the half-open windows, dappling on the exquisite wooden carved pillars, adding a bit of warmth and vitality to the ancient temple.
There is a faint fragrance in the air, which seems to be the fragrance of the wood itself. This fragrance makes people feel peaceful and peaceful, as if it can cleanse the dust from the soul.
However, Xu Boan silently complained about the "prodigal son", because he saw with his own eyes that the two main beams in the room were made of expensive Huanghuali wood! This was his own small treasury reserve! But they used it like this, but thinking that this was also his own temple, Xu Boan was somewhat relieved.
Inside the temple, Jin Dajian's men were busy decorating the interior. Some were carefully polishing the folds of the statues, striving to make every detail perfect; others were wiping the newly installed doors and windows to ensure the cleanliness and solemnity of the newly built temple.
Although their movements were busy, they were orderly and their faces were pious, obviously full of awe and respect for the Mountain God.
In the center of the temple, a huge statue of the mountain god stood tall. Looking at the image of the kind-looking white-bearded grandfather in front of him, Xu Bo'an was a little amused! He didn't seem to be that old! These little guys still used the image of the old statue.
There were also exquisite murals painted on the walls of the temple, which were obviously drawn by Chen Shishi's arm. Xu Boan had seen her paint on doors and windows before, so he still had some impression of them.
Compared to the small paintings on doors and windows, this large mural is more difficult to paint.
However, Chen Shishi's level of playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting is obviously very good. The painting is colorful and the lines are smooth, which seems to tell the story of Xu Bo'an's kindness to the villagers of Kaoshan Village. These little guys are also thoughtful.
Xu Boan was very pleased to see that everything was going on in an orderly manner.
Just as he was about to leave, Xu Boan suddenly discovered that there were still two bubbles floating in the air above the inner hall of the mountain temple.
Aren't these the two bubbles that appeared when I was summoned just now? Why are they still appearing here?
Although the little guys can't see these two bubbles at all, the appearance of this thing is indeed abnormal!
Xu Boan took a closer look and found that the first bubble was his current location, while the second bubble was the scene of the mountain temple in Cui Valley. There was no doubt that this was the Cui Valley he had just returned to!
However, what puzzled Xu Boan was that before this, bubbles would only appear here when Xu Boan felt summoned.
Nowadays, Xu Boan has returned from Cui Valley, but the bubble is still there!
What is going on? Could it be that I can pass through the bubble and go through it at any time?
Thinking of this, Xu Boan gently clicked on the bubble of the Cui Valley Mountain Temple scene. The next moment, Xu Boan felt a flash before his eyes, and the scene in front of him had changed.
It is indeed the sight of the mountain temple in the green valley!
Not far away, most of the little guys had already left, but Luo Li, Luo Cheng and a few others were still here.
Xu Bo'an looked at everything in front of him in amazement and was a little stunned.
What do you mean?
I came here by myself, and I didn't need incense as a medium to summon me? It was even like the mountain temple in the bonsai, where I didn't need to consume incense and vows to come here?
Why is that?
Xu Boan was puzzled for a moment!
Subconsciously looking outside the temple, he saw Luo Cheng looking at Luo Li excitedly and said, "Brother Li, are you saying that the big pool over there is all the water given to us by the Mountain God?"
Luo Li nodded and said, "That's right. With this water, Green Lake will at least not dry up! And the Mountain God is taking such good care of us. I think we can ask the Mountain God for more water next time!"
"That's great!" Luo Cheng nodded excitedly, then shook his head worriedly, and said, "Our ancestors left us a family motto, saying that the Mountain God has done us a great favor. We have been blessed by the Mountain God and we should know how to repay him instead of asking for more. But it's hard for me to think of how we can repay the Mountain God now that he's so good to us!"
Luo Li frowned slightly when he heard this, and then he seemed to have thought of something and said, "Magic grass! When my magic grass grows up, I can offer the fruits of the magic tree to Grandpa Mountain God. They are rare!"
Luo Cheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "Brother Li, you think too simply. This thing is rare for us, but he is the mountain god. The entire Yushan Mountain is under his command. Let alone other things, there are so many rare treasures in these 32 main peaks alone! He will not be interested in our little things!"
When Xu Bo'an heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up!
Could it be that, because Cui Valley is one of the thirty-two peaks of Yu Mountain, I can reach it directly without any consumption!
At present, it seems that this is the only possibility.
After staying here for a while, Xu Bo'an left.
After coming out of Cui Valley, Xu Boan was still very emotional.
Originally, he thought that he, a small mountain god, did not have much power, let alone a large jurisdiction.
But now, with the gradual development of the branch base, Xu Boan suddenly discovered that the power represented by his position as the mountain god seemed to be the ruler of the entire Yushan Mountain Range!
Although they are all mountain gods, there are differences between mountain gods and mountain gods. The same is true in this respect in the real world where Xu Boan lives.
The mountain gods of ordinary hills and ridges are just small hairy gods. The area under their jurisdiction is no more than a hundred feet, with few species and few living creatures. Their influence is limited to the local area or specific region, so naturally their incense offerings will not be too strong.
Its power and functions are generally simpler or more specific, and are mainly related to the local natural environment, climate, and crops. For example, it may be mainly responsible for protecting local crops from natural disasters and promoting the healthy development of mountains and forests.
But the mountain gods of some large mountain ranges or famous mountains are really powerful. Not only do these mountain gods have a wider regional influence, but even some emperors will kneel down to worship them. For example, the god of Mount Tai, Dongyue, is even more honored as the Great Emperor of Dongyue. When the ancient emperors held the Fengshan ceremony to worship heaven and earth and pray for good weather, peace and prosperity for the country and the people, they would worship here.
They have more powerful divine powers and more extensive authority, and can even control the life and death of the creatures in their jurisdiction, and all the gods, spirits, and monsters in the area under their jurisdiction. They even have many dependents and attendants in charge of affairs in different fields. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are frontier officials. Needless to say, these great mountain gods are very popular.
Xu Boan is now gradually beginning to find interest in the identity of the mountain god of Yushan that he has inherited.
When he saw the small mountain god temple in the bonsai, he thought that this so-called mountain god only governed the land in the bonsai.
However, after the branch base was expanded to Shanyang County and then to Cui Valley, Xu Bo'an gradually came to his senses and realized that he seemed to be too modest.
The position of the mountain god of Yu Mountain seems to have much more power than I thought! (End of this chapter)
