Kuaiwen: I earn a pension by breaking through the game

Chapter 237 The Bride Dedicated to the Mountain God (27)

The high priest had not yet finished his words when he was interrupted by Yaohua in a rage.

"It's a ball! Open your eyes and see clearly, I am clearly the mountain god!"

"Also, don't look down on me just because I look like a child. I'm actually much older than you."

"In terms of seniority, it's not too much for an old lady like you to kowtow to me."

Yaohua crossed her arms in front of her chest, raised her chin slightly, and had a proud and arrogant expression on her face.

There was an uproar when everyone heard her words, and it seemed that everyone found it difficult to accept the news for a while.

"Is this true? It looks like just a little kid, a few years younger than my little girl."

"But judging from her tone and demeanor, she is indeed much more capable than ordinary children."

"For thousands of years, there has never been a detailed record of the mountain god's appearance. Maybe she really is one?"

"She said she was a mountain god, so she really was? I don't think so. Maybe she is just a little monster that popped out from somewhere and is trying to deceive people."

……

Some people believe it, some people doubt it, but most people are half-believing and half-doubting.

Yaohua didn't care about these mortals' speculations about her at first, but when she heard someone say that she was a little monster, she was obviously unhappy.

"Who said I was a monster?! Stand in front of me and say it again!"

"I have been practicing for such a long time, how can I compare with those little demons? They are really short-sighted."

Naturally, he only dared to mutter these words in the crowd. If someone really asked him to come forward and say them, he would immediately fall silent and dare not say any more.

Yaohua snorted coldly, then walked forward slowly and stopped in front of the high priest. He stretched out his hand towards the inside of Lingshan Mountain and grasped the air, and a mysterious rune emerged.

The runes are attached to a transparent light shield, and inside the light shield is a dense forest shrouded in mist.

After Yaohua waved her hand gently, the fog in the dense forest automatically dissipated to both sides, leaving a small path.

"You should be familiar with this road, right?"

"I made an agreement with your ancestors that the villagers of Shibi Village would guard the foot of the mountain for generations to prevent humans with ulterior motives from approaching, so as to reduce my workload."

"And I will do you a favor and open the barrier of Lingshan Mountain at a specific time, so that you can go into the mountain to pick medicinal herbs and exchange them for enough silver to make a living."

"This agreement has lasted for many years and both sides have kept their promises and maintained it well."

"Now that I can open the barrier in front of everyone, it is enough to prove my identity as a mountain god, right?"

The villagers looked at the revealed entrance in shock, and there was a bit more awe in their eyes when they looked at Yaohua.

This is a secret known to everyone in the village, and this intersection can only be entered with the assistance of the high priest every year.

If we lose the opportunity to go into the mountains, we will lose our source of livelihood.

The person who can control such an important barrier must be the mountain god. Ordinary little monsters do not have such a great ability.

The high priestess understood this better than anyone else. For the first time, a reserved look appeared on her old face, and her movements became more respectful.

"The mountain god appeared, but you mortals failed to recognize him in time. It is really our fault. I hope the mountain god will show mercy and not bother with us mortals."

The high priest's back was already hunched, and now he bent even lower, looking like a dark comma. Even the experienced high priest made such a move, so there was no doubt about the other party's identity.

Seeing this, the other villagers lowered their heads in fear, not even having the courage to look him in the face.

Perhaps because they were afraid that Yao Hua would get angry and implicate them, many people even began to kneel down and beg for mercy.

"Lord Mountain God, you are a magnanimous person. Don't treat us fools like that!"

"I was wrong! I was wrong! I shouldn't have said that. Please don't blame me."

"Lord Mountain God is wise and powerful, and his magic is profound. I hope you will not get angry and continue to protect the villagers of our Shibi Village."

……

Jiang Qiuchen and Yaohua were speechless when they saw the villagers falling down in neat rows like straws bent by the wind.

Fortunately, although Yaohua sometimes has a bad temper, she is unwilling to tease others in such a big matter.

She pouted, stretched out her hand helplessly, and a flash of light appeared, helping everyone up steadily.

"You don't have to do this. I'm not a scary guy and I won't eat you."

"I've already said it before. I'm the mountain god, the one who protects this sacred mountain. I'm not a monster. How could I punish you?"

"I am not here to cause trouble today, but to tell you something important."

Hearing that the mountain god would not punish them, the atmosphere on the scene instantly became much more relaxed and the villagers were no longer panic-stricken.

"Whatever the mountain god has said, as long as our village can do it, we will definitely do our best!"

The high priest suddenly raised his head, his eyes were firm and his tone was sonorous and powerful. If you didn't know, you would think he was going to the battlefield to fight.

Jiang Qiuchen was a little absent-minded at first, but after the high priest's roar, he instantly came to life, shivered a little, and stood up straight.

Yaohua helplessly tugged at the wedding dress Jiang Qiuchen was wearing and said with her head tilted.

"It's all your own fault... What on earth were you thinking, sending me a bride?"

"And not just one, but one every hundred years."

"Why? In your eyes, the mountain god must be a man, and he is also someone who gets bored easily."

"According to your logic, he shouldn't be called the Mountain God, but the Evil God, right?"

Everyone looked at Yaohua, who looked like a child, and then at Jiang Qiuchen, who was wearing her wedding dress, and fell into a tacit silence.

"Thousands of years ago, in order to protect Lingshan and resist natural disasters, I lost a lot of my cultivation and soon fell into a deep sleep."

"I didn't expect that something like this would happen in Lingshan during my sleep. It's really overwhelming."

"If Ah Cheng hadn't been lucky enough to escape and meet me, I don't know how long this ridiculous thing would have continued!"

The high priest was ashamed, his lips trembled, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

"The tragedy that has already happened cannot be undone, but at least the next tragedy can be nipped in the bud."

"I have never shown myself in front of people before, which has caused a lot of misunderstandings. Now that everyone knows my identity, there is no need to do these useless things anymore."

"I declare that from now on, there will be no more brides for the mountain god in Lingshan!"
