Chapter 233 The Bride Dedicated to the Mountain God (23)

At this point, if Jiang Qiuchen didn’t react, he would be a real fool.

The little girl in front of you is the mountain god of Lingshan.

People in the world are ignorant and often judge everything based on their shallow understanding and narrow perspective. Even God judges according to their own guesses.

Between a man and a woman, the man comes first; between the elder and the younger, the elder comes first. It seems to be the most normal thing.

Limited by our own experience and prejudice, we always tend to look for answers based on our own guesses and assumptions.

The whereabouts of the mountain god are elusive, and it is difficult for ordinary people to catch a glimpse of him in their entire lifetime.

In their hearts, the powerful mountain god is naturally a man in his prime.

However, this view is nothing more than the stereotyped assumptions and fixed cognition of gender roles deep in people's hearts, lacking in-depth thinking and understanding.

In basic social relationships such as between men and women, and between the old and the young, people tend to believe that men exist before women, and the old appear before the young.

This concept seems to have become the default rule of society and is accepted as a matter of course.

When we delve deeper into the world of myths and legends, it is not difficult to discover an interesting phenomenon.

Trivial matters closely related to daily life, such as marriage, childbirth, farming, and weaving, are usually handled by female gods, while fighting roles and roles with powerful divine powers are mostly played by male gods.

In most myths, the image of goddesses is often closely associated with qualities such as gentleness, kindness and love.

They are more often portrayed as symbols of protecting the family, nourishing life, and inheriting culture.

For example, in agricultural culture, the goddess may transform into a harvest goddess, blessing the harvest of crops and the happiness and well-being of the people.

In the field of textiles, goddesses may appear in the form of the Weaver Girl or the Silkworm God, teaching people textile skills and giving fabrics auspicious and beautiful meanings.

When we turn our attention to combat and divine power, male gods are more common.

They often appear brave, fearless and powerful, possessing earth-shaking powers and the courage to conquer everything.

In mythological stories, these male gods may be gods of war, thunder or fire, etc., and their images are full of masculinity and the beauty of strength.

The villagers in the village at the foot of the mountain were clever and thought that this action would please the mountain god and protect the long-term development of the village. However, they did not realize that they were actually making the mountain god unhappy.

After knowing the other party's identity, Jiang Qiuchen's attitude and tone became more respectful.

"Lord Mountain God, according to the village's chief priest, our ancestors received your signal, which is why they took this action."

"And generations have remembered this and are proud of it. But what went wrong in the process, causing this misunderstanding?"

After hearing what Jiang Qiuchen said, the little girl scratched her head in confusion. Her cute look made people tremble.

"I never said such a thing. I'm just a little girl, what do I need a bride for?"

"I slept for a long time, and I can't remember a lot of things."

Looking at the other person's conflicted look as he tried hard to recall, Jiang Qiuchen pursed his lips, stood still quietly, and did not rashly make a sound to disturb him.

After a moment, the little girl's eyes lit up and she exclaimed.

"Oh! I think I remember it!" "The people at the foot of this mountain built a mountain temple for me. When some people encounter problems that cannot be solved by human power, they will come to me for help."

"Although I am lazy and napping most of the time, if I see you, I will still help you if I can."

"You can see that I am just a child after I transform. I speak in a baby voice and don't look very dignified. I don't want to bother, so I just tell them the solution by turning into words out of thin air."

After hearing this, Jiang Qiuchen couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth a little, with an obvious smile.

It seems that the mountain god is very concerned about her own dignity. The fact that she can only transform into a child must make her quite annoyed.

As if she had anticipated Jiang Qiuchen's reaction, the little girl crossed her hands helplessly and snorted coldly.

"I originally wanted to cultivate for a few thousand more years before transforming, so that I could move as an adult. But something happened in Lingshan before, and I had to come out to solve it first."

"Otherwise, if the mountain is gone, where can I continue to practice?"

"Because of that natural disaster, I was seriously injured. I failed at the last moment. I slept for a thousand years before I was able to recover to my previous state. It's really annoying!"

When talking about this matter, the little girl couldn't suppress the displeasure on her face.

Although this mountain god has existed for a long time, perhaps because of the influence of his incarnation, he still speaks like a child with a simple mind, and even his temper is very arrogant.

As if she realized that her topic had gone off topic, the little girl was embarrassed and stunned for two seconds, then continued to talk about what was going on before.

"That day, an old man said that many people in the village had contracted some disease and would not live long. He hoped that I could show my spirit to save them. I tore off a petal and gave it to him, telling him to give it to those who were dying. As long as they were still breathing, they would definitely not die."

"The old man left with great gratitude, and came back two days later to say that everyone was alive. He asked me if I needed anything, and they would find it for me to offer as a sacrifice."

"In this sacred mountain, if I want something, I can get it by just waving my hand. Why should I ask an old man like him to thank me? After all, he is just thanking me with something from my mountain."

"It just so happened that I was very bored at the time, so I sent him a message asking him to ask a young girl to come up the mountain to talk to me."

When Jiang Qiuchen heard this, he felt something was wrong. It seemed that the misunderstanding started from here.

"The old man immediately explained it clearly and then went back."

"But before my new friend arrived, something happened in Lingshan. After I solved the problem, I was also seriously injured and turned into my original form and fell into a deep sleep."

"It turns out that after all this time, the old man misunderstood what I meant!"

The little girl walked back and forth on the grass with her hands on her hips, looking angry.

Jiang Qiuchen was also at a loss for words. He had never expected that the cause of the incident would be like this.

Because the mountain god had never appeared in public, everyone presumed that she was an adult man.

If you read this sentence in a man's voice, you can get a different meaning.

What does it mean to find a young girl to go up the mountain to chat with people? Isn't it obvious that you want a woman to relieve your desires?

The villagers boasted that they had seen through the mountain god's hidden meaning at a glance, and they might have still been complaining about it when they went down the mountain. Even if they became gods, they could not escape this most common desire.

The gods existed for a long time, and in order to make up for this gap in time, the village chief at that time made a rule on his own initiative to send a bride into the mountain every hundred years.
