Xu Bo'an did a rough count and found that he had actually increased his power of incense by more than thirty wisps at once.
More than thirty wisps of incense and wish power!
What is this concept!
You must know that Xu Boan obtained the most incense wish power at one time, but it was only about fifty wisps.
That was contributed by high-level feudal officials like the Duan family of Southern Xinjiang.
And at that time, he was accompanied by many members of the Duan family. Naturally, there were many people in these family members who had outstanding status and wide influence.
Even so, Xu Boan only got about fifty wisps of incense power.
And before that, even Guo Wenzhong, the commander of the armed forces of the Qingyun Road and the commander-in-chief of the Qingyun Army, Xu Boan could only contribute more than ten wisps of incense when offering incense to the mountain god grandpa. Willing power.
The Cuigu people in Cuiyun Mountain, including the man who led them, look like the villagers in the mountains, but they can actually contribute so much to the incense.
Is there something hidden here? Especially this leading man, what is his identity?
After all, he was the only one who offered incense just now, and Xu Boan's acquisition of the incense and wish power was naturally due to him offering incense.
Although he was confused, Xu Boan was not in a hurry to ask him.
Instead, he handed over the shredded bread sticks and fluff in his hand first.
What the people in Cuigu saw was not that simple.
They only saw some white floc suddenly appeared in the small mountain temple. These things seemed to be slightly yellowish. This was the result of crushing the yellowed skin of hand-pulled bread. Status, it’s just these little guys don’t know.
However, they could clearly smell the sweet smell approaching.
There is no doubt that the sweet smell that I smelled earlier came from here.
"Okay, you guys eat something first!" Xu Boan ordered in a solemn voice.
"Thank you, Grandpa Mountain God, for your gift. The common people bow to you." The man in front immediately kowtowed again, appearing extremely sincere.
A group of people behind the man also made the same movements as him and shouted the same words.
"Thank you, Grandpa Mountain God, for your gift. The common people are convinced."
Xu Bo'an said: "Okay, let's have something to eat first!"
Hearing Xu Bo'an's words, the leading man stood up first, but But he did not move, but waved his hand and said: "Follow the instructions of Grandpa Mountain God, take it and eat it."
After he finished speaking, those people came up and took away the floating things in the air. He tore off the bread crumbs with his hands and stuffed them into his mouth hungrily.
The breadcrumbs in Xu Boan's eyes are almost the same size as pancakes in the eyes of these people.
“It’s delicious, it’s so delicious! I’ve never eaten anything so sweet and delicious.”
“I’ve never eaten it either. What on earth is this? It looks like a pancake. , It’s really delicious.”
“What kind of cake can it compare to this? You idiot, this must be made by the chefs in those big restaurants. The same snacks.”
“You are right, this is so delicious. When I went out, the snacks I bought at the snack shops were not so delicious.”
“ Yes, it’s so delicious. It’s better than the dim sum I’ve had at Hongbin Tower before.”
The leading man said in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense, I can't stop your mouths even if you eat. Don't make any noise in front of Grandpa Mountain God!"
Hearing the leading man's scolding, people fell silent for an instant.
Xu Boan asked: "What's your name?"
The man kowtowed respectfully to the Earth Temple and replied: "In terms of Grandpa Mountain God, my name is Luo Li! "
When Xu Bo'an heard this name, his heart suddenly turned a little, and he subconsciously asked: "No, wait a minute! What is your name?"
The man explained carefully: " Grandpa Shan Shen, my name is Luo Li! Is there any problem?” , why did you get your name!"
Luo Li said seriously: "I heard my father said that it was because I was very strong when I was young, so when I grew up, , that’s what my family gave me. When I was young, my family always called me Goudaner.” As for the name, many people even decide on a more serious name when they are going to school.
Furthermore, names like Goudan Gouwa Stinky Little are rarely used in the countryside. The overlap of names is quite high. It is said that the people in the countryside have rumors from their ancestors that it is easier to make a living if the name is cheap. .
It seems that some villages in the bonsai world also have this custom.
Hearing the other party's explanation, Xu Bo'an said casually: "So that's it, not bad! Not bad!"
Xu Bo'an then realized that the word "Li" in the other party's name was "Strength" "Li", in this case, if a strong man is called "Li", the name will not be inconsistent.
Xu Boan asked casually again: "Among you, you are the one in charge, right?"
Luo Li said respectfully: "It's difficult, everyone just trusts me!"
>
In general villages, the people in charge are older people, but now when these individuals gathered together, they chose this young man to be the leader.
Xu Boan felt that the combination of these people did not look like a naturally formed village.
Could this group of people be bandits or bandits?
But what about bandits, what about mountain bandits! They are helpless in the face of natural disasters.
Xu Boan was just trying to find out more about them, such as asking Luo Li how strong he was, and when did these people live in Cuigu.
Before Xu Bo'an could speak, he suddenly saw a middle-aged man among the bread eaters standing behind him, suddenly clasping his throat with his hands crazily.
"Woo...Woo!"
The man's face was purple and blue, and he was frantically picking his throat out of his mouth with difficulty. It looked like he was choking on something to eat.
The people next to me were so anxious that they had no choice but to slap their backs and ask about the situation.
However, there is no effective first aid method, so we can only act in a hurry.
Xu Boan was just about to help, using the Heimlich maneuver.
But when Luo Li saw this, he hurriedly walked over. He narrowed his eyes slightly, shook hands into a fist, and then instantly punched the man in the stomach.
The next moment, the man's body was bent like a shrimp, his mouth opened subconsciously, and a bunch of things suddenly spurted out of his mouth.
Then I saw the man gasping for air, obviously having cleared the congestion in his throat. Good guy, this guy is quite capable, and his simple and crude first aid methods are very effective.
Luo Li ordered a person on the side: "This stuff is too dry, Amang, go to Green Lake to see if you can drain out some more water and share it with everyone."
"Understood, I'll go right away, Brother Li!" A man responded and left.
Luo Li then ordered to another person: "Aqiu, you should go too. If there is not enough water, go to the cave to get some fruits and bring them together. There is also the temple of Grandpa Mountain God here. Put some fruits as a sacrifice."
Another person responded.
Xu Boan asked curiously: "Do you still have fruit here?"
This place is so dry, can they still save fruit?
Since there is fruit, how can it be so miserable!
Luo Li explained: "It made Grandpa Mountain God laugh. We collected them from the mountains a few days ago. There isn't much left. They are the last food left for the children. Recently The fruits in the place have long been gone, and even the bark of the trees is almost peeled off."
Xu Bo'an heard that these people were living so miserably, and saw that they had at least added some incense and will power to themselves. When he got up, he said kindly: "Okay, good people will do it to the end. Just wait a moment and I will get some more water and wait for you."
"Water! That's great. Thank you to the mountain god for the gift. ." Luo Li said in surprise.
Xu Boan did not go out directly this time, but moved to the mountain temple in the backing village in the blink of an eye.
He took a plastic bottle cap from the mountain behind the mountain temple that had been stored here before, and then used the cap to scoop a capful of water from the pool at the foot of the cliff in the backing village. Came back again and arrived at Cuigu.
The next moment, these people only saw a huge white pool, which suddenly shot out from the direction of the mountain temple, and then fell to the ground with a dull sound, accompanied by a few drops of water. splashed out of the pool.
A group of people were stunned.
“Oh my god, the water is really water!”
“Great, we finally have water!”
“With water, Cui Lake will be saved. , Cuigu will be saved.”
“Don’t be kidding, this water is not enough for the bottomless pit of Cuihu. This is a reward from the mountain god. Please save some and wait until the next rainy season. , Cuihu will definitely be able to save it.”
“Grandpa Mountain God, I, Luo Li, have taken care of Grandpa Mountain God. I can’t repay him. If things get better in the future, I will definitely rebuild the temple and build a golden temple for Grandpa Mountain God. Body.”
Hey guys, it’s this again. These words are the mature words of gratitude agreed upon by people in the bonsai world.
Xu Boan had heard similar expressions of gratitude in the Chenghuang Temple in Kaoshan Village and in Shanyang County.
"Haha, we are destined to meet each other. Let me ask you, how many people are there in your Green Valley?" Xu Bo'an quickly inquired about the situation here.
Luo Li replied: "Going back to Grandpa Mountain God, there are more than a hundred people, men, women, old and young, but many of them are not here yet. They all went to the mountains to hunt for water sources and pick fruits. We people I just came back and happened to meet Mr. Yan on the road. "
To Xu Boan, a group of more than a hundred people is nothing more than a village.
As Luo Li is the speaker, under normal circumstances, if he comes to offer incense, it would be good if he can get two wisps of incense. It is a bit surprising to give so many at once.
Xu Boan said with a smile: "Haha, since there are more than a hundred people, this food is naturally not enough. I happen to have some rice here, you can take it and use it. It is also between you and me. It’s a gift from fate.”
While talking, Xu Boan went out to get some more rice and immediately threw it in front of these people.
Seeing the rice grains as big as heads emerging from the mountain temple and falling to the ground, these people were a little stunned.
"Is this rice? So big!"
"Probably, I have never heard of such a big rice."
"President Yan mentioned it before, but we didn't expect that we would also meet it. It seems that this good god is the same god that Mr. Yan was talking about."
"I think so too. Yes, listen to Mr. Yan Bao, things from gods are different from things in our mortal world.”
Luo Li was also shocked by the sudden appearance of these giant rice.
"Grandpa Mountain God, all this rice is for us." Luo Li seemed a little unbelievable.
Xu Boan said softly: "Yes, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. You can just eat with peace of mind."
Luo Li said: "Thank you, Grandpa Mountain God, the common people are really ashamed. Earlier I have never offered incense or tribute to the mountain god, but now I have been blessed by you. The grass people are really ashamed.
The grass people and others have nothing to repay. I have saved some over the years. All the rare things are stored in the cave. Please ask the mountain god to move over. If there is anything you are interested in, the common people are willing to personally offer it. "
You are all starving to death, what is there to care about. Something, Xu Bo'an chuckled and declined: "Haha, that's not necessary, I accept your idea."
Xu Bo'an was being modest here, when suddenly a voice came from outside.
"Brother, great, I'm so lucky. Look what I found!"
As the words fell, a man carrying a bamboo basket ran in from outside.
Luo Li scolded in a deep voice: "You kid, don't shout loudly, or you will disturb Grandpa the Mountain God."
The newcomer said doubtfully: "Brother, what are you talking about? What? Grandpa Mountain God? Where did Grandpa Mountain God come from? "
Luo Li said: "Don't mess around there, don't disrespect the mountain god. Your life depends on the help of Grandpa Mountain God."< br>
The man asked doubtfully: "No, brother, what are you talking about? When those people from Bai Mian Cult deceived you before, didn't you say you didn't believe anything anymore? Why..."
Luo Li quickly interrupted the other party and said: "Okay, let's take a look. This is the food given to us by the mountain god. You eat it first to rest your stomach. I want to take a look at you." What good things did you bring back?”
Hearing this, the man happily showed off: “It’s not an ordinary good thing. I found it on a cliff, not far from us. The waterfall cliff,
You didn’t know, brother, there was actually a hole there! There was a waterfall blocking it before, but none of us knew it. Now that the waterfall is completely dry, we realize that there is something like this behind it. A good place."
"Oh, a hole, what hole?" Luo Li asked curiously.
Xu An'an, however, had some thoughts about the place mentioned by this person. From what he introduced, this place looked a bit like the Water Curtain Cave in Huaguo Mountain.
In "Journey to the West", when Sun Wukong discovered the Water Curtain Cave, wasn't it also behind a waterfall in Huaguo Mountain?
The new person shook his head and said: "Brother, I'm not sure. The entrance to the cave is too high. I was sweating only halfway up the climb. I'm tired, and I'm also hungry, so I don't dare to take any more risks. When I rest for two days, I will definitely climb in and take a look."
"Oh, don't worry, you eat first. Something. Then I’m even more surprised, what’s in your basket...”
Halfway through his words, Luo Li suddenly opened the bamboo strips basket and saw the contents inside. Shout out subconsciously.
"Well, the fairy grass is actually the fairy grass. This is a miracle medicine!" (End of this chapter)
