Fast Travel: I Don't Want to Save the World

Chapter 20 The Story of Nanshan ([-])
After leaving Fuyang City, everyone went up to an earthen bridge north of the city. When they reached the foot of the mountain, they could see two rows of simple wooden huts. The people who hurried away walked towards one of them.

There was only one young man standing outside the house, and the five or six people behind him were far away.

Seeing a lot of people coming, the young man standing in front of the wooden house became more courageous. He pointed to the wooden house and said, "It's inside!"

It was said that a middle-aged man dressed as a Taoist priest walked out of a group of people from the city. He was wearing a long blue cloth shirt and held a yellow peach wood sword in his hand.

"You and other monsters dare to make trouble at the foot of Fuyang Mountain, if you don't come out, you will die quickly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rustling sound in the wooden house. Everyone held their breath and waited for a while, but there was no more movement in the house.

"Huh!" The middle-aged man let out a rough breath from his nostrils, raised his mahogany sword, and pointed it at the door of the wooden house: "Don't blame me for being rude!"

He was about to rush in when someone reminded:

"Be careful, that monster looks really scary, if you look at it, you will lose half your life!"

"Don't look into its eyes!"

"Master Dao, be careful when sailing for thousands of years." A white-haired old man walked out of the crowd. After he finished speaking, he asked several big men to surround the wooden house.

The middle-aged man stood in front of the wooden house, and the big man surrounded the wooden house for half a circle. Several people looked at each other, and then they all beat the small house with wooden sticks, trying to scare the monster out.

"Boom boom boom——"

The noise became louder and louder, and the onlookers tightened their hearts.

The monster in the room was also frightened, and howled like a slaughtered pig, causing everyone to run away in fright.

Unfortunately, just as the middle-aged man rushed to the door, a crossbar fell down and hit the man's head impartially. He rolled his eyes and kicked his legs!

Several big men hurriedly turned back, dragged the fainted middle-aged man away, and carried him to the side. Seeing this scene, everyone thought it was a monster.

When the room was quiet again, the white-haired old man glanced at the big man:
"Wang Mazi, rush in!"

"Me, shall I go in first?"

"Then count one, two, three, let's rush in together, one, two..."

Before it was three, the monster rushed out first!

In the panic, no one could see clearly what the monster was, only a black shadow rushed out, and the big man in charge threw the net in his hand onto the monster's head, and the other men saw it Overjoyed, everyone went to help pull the net.

Although the monster was caught in the fishing net, it was still struggling.

After a while, the monster lost its energy, and it nestled and did not move. Only then did everyone see clearly how terrifying this monster looks!
"It's so creepy!"

The timid retreated far away, while the bolder gathered around and talked about the monster they caught: "Isn't this a wild boar?"

It was black all over, with small ears, a long nose, a white mane on its back, stubby limbs, a pair of fangs hanging on both sides of its mouth, and it grinned at several people, looking quite ferocious.

At first glance, it was indeed a wild boar.

However, its four feet are not pig's hooves, but chicken feet!

Seeing this, Ye Qing at the end of the crowd said, "This is a kind of beast from Guishan, called Lili."

According to legend, where the raccoon power appears, there must be a lot of water and soil engineering, which is an ominous sign.

Ye Qing looked at that raccoon, and saw that she already had spiritual consciousness, but her level was too low to transform into a human form.

In ancient times, there were some beasts that were different from the basic understanding of the "modern world". Although they were different, most of them were mortal things, no different from ordinary creatures known to people. People have never seen them because they are rare, and they can finally absorb the aura There are only a very small number of such beasts that have turned into monsters.

For example, the raccoon trapped in a fishing net has lived for more than 70 years, which is earlier than the normal lifespan of a wild animal. However, her aura is too low, equivalent to a human child a few years old. She has no understanding of the outside world. so clear.

When Li Li was caught, she tried her best to escape. She ran wild and knocked a big man into the ditch. When the others let go, she fell back and ran into the back of the wooden house.

But there is no way to live there, only bare mountain walls.

The big man followed closely, holding a long machete in his hand.

The crowd surrounded a raccoon with no way out. Just as they were about to kill the monster with the white knife and the red knife, the hand of the big man holding the knife suddenly crooked.

The big man stabbed him crookedly, and Li Li knocked one of them away, taking the opportunity to run back to the dilapidated wooden house from the same path.

Ye Qing couldn't help sighing when she saw her in such a panic.

"You wait for me."

After handing Rong Sheng to Hu Yingfeng, she quickly walked in another direction.

Just before Li Li was about to run back to the wooden house, Ye Qing called her at the corner: "Come here, this way."

Li Li glanced at Ye Qing, then ran into the wooden house.

However, an invisible force forced Li Li to sneak into another hut. As soon as she entered, Ye Qing at the door closed the door: "Don't make a sound."

Lili was ecstatic inside: "Can you hear me?"

Between the same kind, you can hear the inner monologue.

"Of course." Ye Qing is not of the same kind as her, and she can understand her words because she is much higher than Li Li: "Why did you run among mortals?"

"Piggy is really hungry."

I don't know where this raccoon came from, but it said in a Taiwanese accent: "People just want to eat a big pot of food, who knew they would find out, I admit that I look... ugly, but These people don’t need to treat me as a monster that eats people!”

Lili knelt at Ye Qing's feet, rubbing her head against her calf, as if seeing a long-lost relative, Lili couldn't help crying and complaining to her.

If you just listen to this lily talking, she looks like a seven or eight-year-old girl, but she looks cute, but her appearance is really... hard to describe.

Li Li told Ye Qing that it was winter, and the hunters had hunted away all the birds and animals on the nearby hills. There was no food on the hills, so she could only come down the hills.Hearing that a large aqueduct was going to be built outside the city, and that the construction would require migrant workers, and the more people there were, the more food they would eat, so she decided to come and have some big pot meals.

"Sister, help me, I don't want to be caught."

Knowing the whole story, Ye Qing helped her turn into a dog: "Be careful yourself, the mana on your body will disappear in two hours."

Lili, who became a little dog, finally hooked up with the cute image. She said in a soft daddy tone: "Thank you sister, Zhuzhu will definitely repay my sister's kindness in the future."

After the matter of Li Li was resolved, they entered Fuyang Mountain according to the guidance of the Buddhist beads.

Not long after entering the mountain, they saw a bunch of people again.

In the front, they took the initiative to watch, but this time they were forced to stay and watch.

Behind the crowd were also stopped people, among them were four young men, they laughed when they saw Ye Qing and the three of them.

"Is this also going into the mountains?"

"Take women and children into the mountains?"

A man laughed loudly, pointed at Ye Qing and the others, and said to his companions: "They can catch Lu Shu like this, I will use my head as a chair for you to sit on."

"Shhh—" the person in front interrupted a few people, and said with a serious expression: "The ceremony has begun, don't talk!"

The people living at the foot of the mountain are performing a ritual to worship the mountain god. Anyone who wants to enter the mountain at this time must wait for the ceremony to end.

The dozens of nearby mountains all belong to the Nanshan system. According to legend, the mountain god is a beast with a dragon head and a bird body. The etiquette of offering sacrifices to the mountain god is a tradition left over from many years ago. The sacrifice is held once a year. This year’s sacrifice has actually passed, and this time the sacrifice The mountain god only ordered a new canal to be dug by the lord of Shuyang City to irrigate the farmland outside the city.

The old man who presided over the sacrifice buried the animal and Zhang together in the ground, and after filling the soil, the woman sprinkled a layer of rice, and then two six-year-old boys spread the white grass behind the rice, which was used as a seat for the gods.
