Chapter 580 Creditor invites tea
Jiang You blinked, feeling a little weird.
"Who did you hear that gods don't eat human fireworks?"
"It's been passed down, and it's always been like this anyway. Before we went up to Long Mountain, this mountain temple was like this. Long Mountain is too high, so it's not easy to go up and down to build a mountain temple here.
There are also very few people worshiping.
I heard that this temple had been abandoned for hundreds of years. It was only after we went to Longshan that the old man organized people to repair it.
She said that it was because of the protection of the mountain god that we were able to survive the plague. "
As Ahua said, she gathered a large handful of wild flowers from the door, tied them with straw tendons, placed them on the tribute platform, and then kowtowed a few times piously.
This look made the corners of Jiang You's eyes twitch.
Call her pious, but the flowers and plants she randomly picked look very careless.
Call her ungrateful, her head banged loudly.
Jiang You asked, "Ahua, do you believe in the mountain god?"
"Of course I believe it!"
Ahua answered almost without hesitation, "I didn't believe it when I was a child, but I believed it later. The mountain god really exists, and he protects this land..."
Having said this, she paused for a moment, and then looked at Jiang You with a very serious expression.
"Because only by believing in the existence of the mountain god can the Rainbow Bridge really exist, and our dead relatives and friends can walk across the Rainbow Bridge and reach the divine realm."
"Holy area?"
Jiang You was confused, "What is the divine realm?"
"The Divine Realm is the place of origin, the birthplace of God, and the home of the soul."
Jiang You silently remembered these words in his heart.
She brought Ahua here because she originally wanted to learn more about the mountain temple through her.
Although he could directly ask the old kidnapper, Jiang You still used to collect evidence from various sources.
And the same thing, the picture presented in everyone's perspective is completely different.
After much deliberation, the only place to start with the mystery of Longshan is the legend about the mountain god.
She didn't believe that anyone would build a mountain temple on Longshan Mountain for no reason.
Not mentioning that Longshan is the center of the altar, just looking at the topography of Longshan, how can one worship in a temple on such a steep cliff?
It may fall into pieces every time.
No matter how sincere your heart is, you can't risk your life, right?
Jiang You has always believed that the so-called gods are a game of the human heart.
Therefore, this mountain temple may be the key to solving the mystery.
She carefully observed the mountain temple, followed the local customs, and then picked a few flowers from the door and placed them on the tribute platform.
He asked casually, "Ahua, what is the Rainbow Bridge you are talking about? These days, I have heard many people say these three words."
Since the Battle of Longshan, Jiang You heard many people mention the term "Rainbow Bridge".
Any dead person can walk through the rainbow and reach the realm of God.
In their belief, death is not the end, but the beginning of another world.
The bonfire party that night left a deep impression on Jiang You to this day.
Usually when someone dies in the family, they usually cry.
But that night, after a brief period of sadness and reluctance, the people in the village danced around the bonfire. They sang songs they didn't understand, as if they were bidding farewell to friends who had been separated for a short time.
Their smiles come from the heart.
Jiang You asked his doubts.
Ahua frowned and thought for a moment.
"Parting itself is not a sad thing. Nothing can stay together forever. Children will be separated from their mothers when they grow up. Baby birds will leave their families when they learn to fly. Saplings will branch out when they grow up...
This is normal.
Although death will be difficult to part with, it is not worth being too sad. Fallen leaves fall to the ground, and new shoots will grow in the rotten soil in the coming year.
When a beast dies in the mountains, countless bugs will be born in its body. This is the cycle...
Life is constant, neither more nor less, it will only exist in another way...
The same is true for the dead. They have arrived in the divine realm and started a new life. We should also continue to move forward instead of staying in the past. "
“Who created these ideas?”
"No, no one needs to create this, it is how it should be, and I should know it.
If a person hands you a bowl of water to drink, can you say that she created the water? "
Jiang You shook his head, and a sentence suddenly came to his mind, and he read it out in his mouth.
"She does not produce water, she is just a porter of nature..."
Ahua's eyes lit up, "Yes, that's how it should be!"
The creditor's words are indeed simple but get to the point!
She kept recording the conversation between Jiang You and A Hua on her mobile phone. It wasn't until A Hua told everything she knew that Jiang You let her leave.
From that day on, she would find a few people to chat and drink tea on the grass in front of the temple every morning and afternoon.
Gradually, a rumor spread in the village.
It is said that anyone who is invited to tea by a creditor is a good prospect who will be reused in the future.
Then Zhang Shuhui suddenly discovered that outside the tree house, which was usually quiet, there were suddenly many more people "accidentally" passing by.
An old man walked back and forth at the intersection with a cane more than a dozen times all morning.
I was walking my baby under a small tree at the intersection. The baby was crying and screaming to go home, but he was pushed down by the one-eyed grandma who was playing in the mud.
An old monster was rolling tobacco and chatting not far away.
There are also young people who have lost something and have been looking for it nearby for several days but still haven't found it.
……
Jiang You was completely unaware of all this, or in other words, even if he discovered it, he turned a blind eye and still held tea parties on time every day.
Sometimes she is an aborigine from Long Mountain, and sometimes she goes to people from other villages to collect and record legends about mountain gods, as well as other strange legends in the mountains.
Regarding the legend of the mountain god, each village's version is probably similar, but there are differences in details.
The old woman asked Ahua, and after knowing that Jiang You was interested in the affairs of the Mountain Temple, she had been waiting confidently for her to talk to her.
After all, she is the person most familiar with the Mountain Temple in the entire Long Mountain.
The old kidnapper meticulously tucks her hair into a scarf every day, wears the cleanest starched clothes, and waits for someone to come to her door...
But he didn't expect that after waiting for so many days, Jiang You had no intention of coming to see her.
She seemed forgotten.
This feeling made her feel inexplicably familiar.
By the way, it's very similar to how Jiang You felt when she first arrived in Longshan, waiting for someone to come to visit her.
People in the village found that the old cripple seemed to be in a bad mood recently, and the ointment she made smelled worse than before.
Moreover, he moved the big pot for boiling medicine to the door and stirred it in the pot every day. The smell of medicine floated all over the mountain.
Ahua was a little confused, "Old kidnapper, is the amount of medicine used in the village so high recently? Why do you do so much every day?"
"What do you know? There are more people in Fengcheng now. Although those people don't live in the city, they have learned the old lady's medical skills. They all come to me to buy medicine, but of course it's not enough!"
The old cripple vowed to do so.
But Ahua didn't believe it. Apart from the people in Longshan Village, the daily medication used by the old woman was so high that no one outside could bear it.
Use strong medicine for minor illnesses and poison for serious illnesses.
When most people encounter her, they will be instantly cured by the medicine.
Therefore, people outside cannot find her for minor problems, nor can they find her for big problems.
Unless the person is about to die and cannot be cured, he will go to the old cripple to fight for the 50% chance.
She had some doubts, but didn't ask.
The old cripple was already very eccentric, but she seemed even more eccentric these days.
Yesterday, Mr. Hei had a malignant sore in his throat and couldn't eat. When he came to see her, she grabbed a leech from the tank and aimed it at Mr. Hei's throat.
In the end, Lao Heiye's sores were sucked dry by leeches, and the blood was also almost sucked dry.
I came here with a cane, and I crawled back with my teeth.
It looks like I have lost a lot of weight, and I am almost an adult.
