After the divorce, I became a mountain god
Chapter 571 New Territory
Xu Boan opened the Kuaiyin APP and looked through the chat history with the China Film and Television Center. He discovered that the strange number that called him just now was not a scam, but the contact information that the other party had sent him last time.
I remember that I had an appointment with the China Film and Television Center to meet in Shi Changliang's shop. At that time, Xu Boan and his friends had just returned from Jiangzhou Province, and asked Shi Changliang to help repair the aircraft that had been given to Yan Shouyi in their free time. They sent a message to the other party, and they also exchanged contact information at that time, but it happened that Shi Changliang had repaired the aircraft, and Xu Boan was busy looking at the aircraft, so he forgot to save the contact information.
But right now Xu Bo'an still had to deliver things to Chen Shishi and Yan Xiaojiu first, and he had no time to take care of things at the film and television center.
So Xu Bo'an hurriedly and politely replied to the other party, saying: "Sorry, I'm on a business trip in Jiangcheng recently and have some things to do. I'll call you back when I return to Dongjiang later."
Xu Bo'an was thinking about contacting the other party to discuss the details of the meeting after he finished his work with the bonsai. Unexpectedly, he had just put down his phone and hadn't started the car when the other party sent another message.
"Great, I'll wait for you. Feel free to contact me when you have time. I'm available at any time."
After reading the text message, Xu Boan realized that he had underestimated the other party's sincerity. This made Xu Boan feel a little embarrassed. He subconsciously liked the other party more.
Xu Bo'an was worried about Yan Xiaojiu and Chen Shishi, so he didn't delay and parked the car. He quickly sorted out the outdoor equipment and food he had just purchased and packed some of them in a box.
When packing the boxes, Xu Boan also used his brain a little.
He packed his gear together and put the food in a separate bag.
The equipment is reduced to the smallest state that can be reduced to according to the rules within the bonsai. In this way, the equipment can perfectly fit the little people in the bonsai, making it easier for Chen Shishi and Yan Xiaojiu to use and wear them.
As for those compressed foods, Xu Boan just took out one of each and shrunk the packaging to a certain proportion, making sure that what Chen Shishi and the others saw was 20 to 30 times the size of what Xu Boan saw. This way, he could save some food.
It's like Xu Boan took a pack of instant noodles from the box of instant noodles and put it inside the bonsai, but a single pack of instant noodles was obviously still too big. In order to make it easier for the little ones to eat and carry, Xu Boan reduced the size of the instant noodles by a certain proportion, ensuring that the amount of instant noodles the little ones saw was the same as in Xu Boan's box of instant noodles, which was just right.
Anyway, with the expert Yan Xiaojiu around, Xu Boan didn't worry that it would be inconvenient for them to carry things.
Moreover, Chen Shishi and Yan Xiaojiu want to cross mountains and rivers to go home. Naturally, they have to bring complete equipment for outdoor life, and it is inevitable to be a little tired. I have already helped them a lot, and they have to overcome any difficulties themselves.
Both of them are adults, and they must know that after leaving this temple, it will be difficult to find another temple where they can pray to the mountain god to appear. If they don't endure a little hardship and bring more equipment and food now, they will regret it when they are at their wits' end.
After making these preparations, Xu Boan moved his mind and came to the bonsai world again.
After consuming a wisp of incense and vows, Xu Boan took the initiative to come to the dilapidated temple in the mountains where Chen Shishi and Yan Xiaojiu were.
The brother and sister were still kneeling in front of the worn-out incense table. Xu Bo'an said, "Okay, you guys get up. This is for you. Pick it up and take a look. If you have any questions, just ask me as soon as possible."
As he spoke, Xu Boan placed the shrunken cardboard box in front of the brother and sister.
After hearing what the Mountain God said, Yan Xiaojiu and Chen Shishi first knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to the statue with great understanding, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Mountain God, for your care. We will never forget it. We are willing to repay you by tying a grass and holding a ring for you."
Xu Boan urged, "Okay, time is running out. I understand your intentions. Let's quickly open the boxes and take a look at these things."
The brother and sister responded, then went to the side of the cardboard box and opened it in a hurry.
Yan Xiaojiu first took out a short, shiny silver stick with a black handle about one centimeter long on the back.
Yan Xiaojiu happily grabbed it in his hand and said, "Grandpa Mountain God, I would like to ask for your advice. This short stick is very exquisite. I wonder if it is for self-defense?"
Xu Boan explained: "Yes, this thing is called a swing stick. You can try pressing the small round protrusion on the handle, and then swing it hard, and it will become longer!"
After hearing the explanation from the Mountain God, Yan Xiaojiu hurriedly followed Xu Bo'an's instructions, pressed the button on the handle, and then swung it forward suddenly. Suddenly, the bright silver short stick that was only slightly longer than his palm suddenly split into two parts, turning into a long stick about the length of an arm. When it was swung, it made a sound of breaking through the air, which seemed quite imposing.
Yan Xiaojiu said happily: "This is as good as the whistle stick I used before, it's very sturdy! Thank you, Grandpa Mountain God, for the gift."
Upon hearing this, Chen Shishi couldn't help but say, "What nonsense are you talking about, kid? The treasure given by the Mountain God is a divine weapon from the immortal world. How can it be compared to your wooden stick from the mortal world? What nonsense are you talking about?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaojiu quickly changed his words and said, "Sister, what I'm saying is that the magic weapon of the Mountain God is much stronger than my stick. Not only is it delicate, but it can also be extended and retracted, making it very convenient to carry. Mountain God, please accept my greetings."
As he spoke, Yan Xiaojiu happily kowtowed to the Mountain God.
Xu Bo'an said softly, "Well, time is short and the task is heavy, so don't kowtow to me. I saw that you used to carry a sword with you all the time, but now you are busy on the road and don't have anything suitable. If you encounter any problems, I am afraid that you will suffer if you fight. So I gave you this thing, so you just need to be careful."
Yan Xiaojiu explained, "Thank you, Grandpa Mountain God, for your concern! I used to carry a sword because it was required for my job and my duty. Now I am free from my duties and responsibilities. If I carry a sword, it will easily cause trouble for the officials along the way. To save some trouble, I will not carry any weapons on this trip."
The Da Jing Dynasty did not have any explicit prohibitions, saying that ordinary people were not allowed to carry swords, spears, swords, and halberds. However, generally speaking, nine out of ten people who carried these weapons were people from the martial arts world. They were strong because of their martial arts skills and were inevitably impulsive, so the inspections of these people were naturally more stringent.
If Yan Xiaojiu was still the usual head of the government office, his former colleagues would naturally not make things difficult for him. They might even treat him to some food and drinks. After all, when people are away from home, colleagues in the same system are very happy to take care of each other.
But Yan Xiaojiu is no longer the chief constable of the government office. Even if an ordinary constable said they wanted to investigate him, he had no choice but to accept the investigation. However, if the investigation was too frequent, he was worried that Chen Shishi's identity would be exposed. After all, although the mountain god's disguise skills were amazing, the two of them were guilty after all, and generally speaking, when things involve themselves or their families, they are still inevitably worried.
Therefore, Yan Xiaojiu was very careful and did not bring his own weapons. But now with the portable baton given by Xu Boan, Yan Xiaojiu suddenly became much tougher.
As the saying goes, guns are a man's courage, and the feeling of having a weapon in hand is naturally incomparable to that of being unarmed.
Moreover, men are not immune to straight and solid sticks, so Yan Xiaojiu was so happy at the moment that he didn't even have the mind to look at other things.
Chen Shishi, on the other hand, carefully searched for it and soon found a rough cloth bag as thick as her arm in the box. She asked curiously, "I wonder what this thing is and what it does? I hope Grandpa Mountain God can answer my questions."
Xu Boan saw that the thing Chen Shishi was holding was labeled a portable tent, so he explained, "This is an outdoor tent that allows you to rest outside temporarily without fear of wind and rain. You see the silver zipper next to it, right? You can open it and take out the tent inside. Then insert the matching iron rod inside into the reserved position on the tent, and it will be propped up."
Chen Shishi asked doubtfully, "I'd like to ask what a zipper is. I hope the mountain god can tell me."
Xu Bo'an reached out his hand, fiddled with the silver zipper, and said, "This is it. You'll know if you try to pull it."
Upon hearing this, Chen Shishi hurriedly grabbed the zipper, and with a little force left and right, she figured out the correct way to use the zipper, and the tent bag was opened in an instant.
A piece of paper fell out, and printed on it was the installation method of the tent.
Xu Boan continued, "You've seen that piece of drawing paper, right? You and Yan Xiaojiu can set up this tent according to the instructions drawn on it. If you don't have a place to stay, the tent can help you keep out the cold and wind."
"Thank you, Grandpa Mountain God, for taking such good care of us, brother and sister. Thank you for your concern." Chen Shishi thanked Xu Bo'an and asked a new question. She held up a compass and asked curiously, "Grandpa Mountain God, I wonder what this compass-like thing is!"
Xu Boan explained: "This item is used to identify the direction. As long as you follow the direction it points to, you will not deviate from it."
Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaojiu said in surprise: "So, as long as we have this thing, we can easily determine the direction even if it is a rainy day and there is no sun to distinguish the direction."
Xu Boan responded: "Yes, that's right."
Yan Xiaojiu couldn't let go of the compass. Suddenly, he saw a strange-shaped cylinder from the corner of his eye. He picked it up curiously and asked, "Grandpa Mountain God, I wonder what this cylinder is used for?"
Seeing that Yan Xiaojiu was holding a telescope, Xu Bo'an instructed him, "Stand up and focus your eyes on the narrow end and take a look. You will know it at a glance."
Yan Xiaojiu curiously put the telescope in front of his eyes according to what the mountain god said, and then exclaimed in an instant: "Oh my God, things have become bigger, and what I see has become bigger."
Xu Boan explained with a smile: "It's not that the object has become bigger, but that the object you see is closer. If you take it outside to look at it, it will be easier to distinguish. With this object, you can clearly see things that you couldn't see clearly from a distance before."
"Clairvoyance!" Yan Xiaojiu's eyes lit up and he said in surprise.
Xu Boan responded, "There's nothing wrong with your understanding, but you have to remember that the four transparent lenses on the front and back of this thing must be wiped clean when using it, and they must be well protected on weekdays. Do not damage them. Otherwise, if the lenses are damaged and only the tube is left, it will be useless."
"I will always remember the teachings of Grandpa Mountain God!" Yan Xiaojiu held a baton in one hand and a telescope in the other, and said words of gratitude happily without letting go.
This question and answer process lasted about two incense sticks of time before Xu Bo'an explained to the brother and sister everything in the cardboard box, including an umbrella, sun hat, gloves, mosquito-proof jacket, thermal blanket, multi-function knife, insect repellent spray and first aid kit.
This not only opened the eyes of the brother and sister, but also made Yan Xiaojiu full of confidence, feeling that the road ahead did not seem so difficult.
After seeing the two men put these things into the huge mountaineering bag given to them by the Mountain God, Xu Boan took out the bag of food and placed it in front of them.
"Yan Xiaojiu, Chen Shishi, these are some braised beef with soy sauce and some compressed food. I don't need to explain the beef with soy sauce, just open it and eat it. The compressed food is very solid, and a few bites can be a whole meal. You must control the amount you eat, and don't dare to hurt your body because of the food and delay your journey."
Hearing that the Mountain God had thoughtfully prepared all the food, the brother and sister naturally kowtowed to express their gratitude.
"Thank you, Grandpa Mountain God, for the blessing!"
Xu Bo'an said, "Well, it's still early now. If you still want to hurry on, leave as soon as possible. If you plan to rest here, it's not too late to stay overnight before leaving."
Yan Xiaojiu said immediately: "Thank you for your concern, Grandpa Mountain God, but my sister and I are homesick. Since it is still early, we should hurry up and make some progress. Grandpa Mountain God, please accept our greetings, and we will say goodbye now!"
After watching Yan Xiaojiu and Chen Shishi leave, Xu Boan originally thought about leaving the bonsai world and returning to the real world to pick up the millipede.
But just as I was about to leave, I suddenly saw that the roof of this dilapidated temple was almost half broken, and there were mottled marks of sunlight shining on the ground.
Since this is the case, since I'm here, I might as well go out and see what kind of mountain this place is. It can also be considered as an inspection of the territory I have just expanded.
Xu Bo'an was a man of action, so thinking of this, he immediately raised his sights, and flew from the dilapidated temple to the sky dozens of meters above, overlooking the earth!
After taking a look, Xu Boan was stunned instantly.
Wow, what a golden mountain! (End of this chapter)
