It's just a small mountain and has nothing to do with the mountains.
But this place is a forbidden area within hundreds of miles.
Because there is a Tiger King Temple on the mountain, which worships the Black Tiger Mountain God.
"My predecessor was just an eight-year-old child."
"My cognition is limited, and I am unclear about many things."
"If I want to understand today's world, I should use the God of Hushan, otherwise I will be confused all day long and my heart will be really uneasy."
Zhang Hengneng could sense it.
The upper limit of this world is not low, at least it is the top-level Zhongqian World.
And the world here is very chaotic.
There are Buddhism and Taoism, Confucianism and martial arts, and there are demons.
The six systems collided with each other, but both Buddhism and Taoism were completely wiped out.
Look at it this way.
Confucianism, martial arts, demons, and demons.
There must be an expert among the four families, and this expert is still on the side of the current imperial court.
"I hope this tiger monster can know more about the inside story."
Zhang Heng walked step by step towards the Tiger King Temple on the mountain.
crunch
Not long after.
The Tiger King Temple, a place of great danger in the eyes of the people, has arrived.
Zhang Heng pushed open the temple door.
Enter the eyes.
Enshrined in the temple is a man with a thick beard and a round waist, eyes like copper bells, and a black mace in hand.
Not surprisingly.
This should be the human form of the Black Tiger Mountain God.
"What a black-faced general."
"Before, I looked at it with my Dharma eyes and saw blood condensing in the sky above the temple. I thought it was a man-eating tiger."
"Looking at it now, it may be due to preconceptions and prejudice. Even the statues look like military commanders. This tiger demon might be a demon general who leads troops in war."
Bloody light shot into the sky.
Generally there are two situations.
One is that the demons eat too many people, and the other is that the army kills too many people.
Zhang Heng previously thought that the tiger monster eats people, so it has blood.
Looking again at this time, the blood is fierce but not turbid, which is in line with the killing spirit of the military formation.
"Someone is missing in eight villages ten miles away."
"It must be said that he offended the Tiger Mountain God and was swallowed up by the mountain god."
"False rumors often turn out to be true. In addition, the Tiger King Temple and Wangmiao Zhu's family are really harming the village, and they hate the house. I'm afraid it's unclear how sinister and majestic the Tiger King Temple is.
Known to outsiders.”
Zhang Heng looked at the mountain god statue and shook his head slightly: "I can't say, there is another hidden reason behind the so-called missing persons. It's not as simple as everyone said."
certainly.
Truth and falsehood actually have little to do with each other.
Zhang Heng came here to collect information about this world.
Whether it's true or false, he will capture this tiger mountain god, let it stand in front of him, hide in the dark, and develop for a few years.
Tap tap tap
Just thinking about it.
The sound of brisk footsteps came from behind the palace.
Zhang Heng listened carefully.
The visitor had light steps and was jumping up and down.
He doesn't look like Hushan God or Wang Miao Zhu, but more like a child.
"Who are you?"
Not long after.
A girl in black, who looked about the same age as Zhang Heng, jumped into the hall.
Zhang Heng looked up.
I saw two fluffy white tiger ears on the top of the little girl's head, and a tail swinging back and forth on her back.
"The daughter of the Tiger Mountain God?"
Zhang Heng looked at the little girl.
The little girl was also looking at him, looking from head to toe for a while, and asked: "Are you human?"
"Well"
Zhang Heng was silent for a while and then said, "Where is your father?"
"My father?"
The little girl thought for a while: "It was transferred away by the Human Emperor, saying that he would lead troops to Beihai to suppress the rebellion of the Star Sect."
Finished.
The little girl took a step back and looked at Zhang Heng cautiously: "Wang Miaozhu said that you humans are bad. Did you come to bully me while my father was not at home?"
Zhang Heng was speechless.
He is not aggressive at all, he fights only to seek peace through struggle.
Furthermore.
Bullying an eight- or nine-year-old child while his parents are away is too hopeless. How can he get away with it if word spreads about it?
"Aren't you here to bully me?"
He saw Zhang Heng only looking at him and not speaking.
The little girl was also a little bolder: "I'm so bored, would you like to play with me? Wang Miaozhu is too timid and doesn't even dare to play with me."
Zhang Heng seemed not to have heard of it.
Turn around and leave.
"Don't go."
I saw Zhang Heng was leaving.
The little girl hurriedly chased her out the door: "Are you hungry? I have a lot of food here. How about you play with me and I give you delicious food?"
"Um?"
Zhang Heng paused slightly.
The upper steps of the moss marks are green, and the grass color enters the curtain green.
How can a real man bend his back for five measures of rice when he is born in this world?
"Don't go, don't go."
The little girl chased after him: "I have a lot of books at home. Do you like to read? My father said that people who study can become high officials. I can also tell stories. My father likes to tell me stories. Please accompany me."
Play, let me tell you, okay?"
"story!"
Zhang Heng stopped: "What do you know?"
"I know everything."
The little girl said happily: "My father often tells me about the general trend of the world, and he also praises me for my photographic memory and my ability to observe monuments at a glance."
"this"
Zhang Heng's eyes lit up.
noon.
Zhang Heng walked down the mountain carrying two rabbits on his back.
Flowers planted with care will not bloom.
Willows planted unintentionally create shade.
Originally, he went up to the mountain this time, firstly to inquire about information, and secondly, to solve the problem of food and clothing at home by eating tigers.
He was about to give up when he heard that Hushan God was not here.
Unexpectedly, there were twists and turns. Although the process was a bit tactful, the results were acceptable.
"Are you coming to play with me this afternoon?"
The little girl followed Zhang Heng and walked down the mountain with him.
"Do not have time."
Zhang Heng shook his head without thinking.
"My father has a Lingyu bed. It's very comfortable to lie on. Can I take you to see it?"
The little girl said reluctantly.
"Lingyu bed?"
"Yes."
The little girl nodded repeatedly: "This is the treasure of the Temple of the Reclining Buddha. My father said that sitting on it to practice can be used for three days a day. When the Temple of the Reclining Buddha was conquered, my father was the first to break into the mountain gate. This is a human being.
The reward given to him by His Majesty the Emperor."
Looking at the little girl's eyes full of expectation.
Zhang Heng was shaken.
"Okay, I'll come see you again in the afternoon."
Zhang Heng could not think of a reason to refuse.
"You must come."
The little girl was full of expectation and waved her little hands: "I'm waiting for you here."
Zhang Heng waved his hand in agreement.
Carrying two rabbits on my back, I slowly walked home.
The results haven't arrived home yet.
I saw a large group of villagers from a distance, in small groups, looking for something in the forest.
"Grandma An, what are you looking for?"
Zhang Heng saw the old lady next door, so he followed her through the grass and said, "Are you looking for pheasants?"
"pheasant?"
Grandma An is over sixty years old.
Old eyes are dim.
After hearing Zhang Heng's words, he looked him up and down for a while and said in surprise: "Little Zhang Heng, why are you here?"
"Well"
Zhang Heng was a little confused.
Grandma An hugged him and shouted: "Found it, found it."
"what's the situation?"
Zhang Heng scratched his head a little.
It turned out that everyone was not looking for the pheasant, but him.
"Little brother, little brother!"
I heard Grandma An’s cry.
After a while, the third sister ran over crying: "Where did you die? We were digging wild vegetables, and you disappeared in the blink of an eye. There were so many jackals, tigers and leopards on the mountain. What should I do if they took you away?"
"Third sister, don't cry"
Zhang Heng had forgotten.
In his own mind, he is not a child.
But in the eyes of everyone, he is just an eight-year-old kid picking wild vegetables with his sister. If he disappears, how can we not look for him?
"I saw a little girl at the foot of the mountain."
"She asked me to play with her and gave me hares to eat, and then I went."
Zhang Heng's words were vague.
He raised the hare on his hand.
"little girl!"
Everyone's expressions changed drastically.
There was a drought and a bad harvest the year before last, making life difficult for everyone.
Coupled with the ban on going up the mountain, who can take two rabbits away to the little girl's playmates?
Needless to say.
Zhang Heng encountered a transformed mountain spirit wild monster.
"Old Zhang's family, please take the child back quickly."
Everyone retreated subconsciously.
Keep a distance from Zhang Heng and his family.
"My poor little brother!"
The third sister kept crying, as if Zhang Heng would be captured by a monster in the next second.
"Go back, go back."
Zhang's father and Zhang's mother also changed their expressions.
With a sad look on his face, he pulled Zhang Heng and rushed home.
"You don't have to be afraid."
"That little girl's name is Hu Mengmeng. She has a gentle personality and is kind to others. She even asked me to come back in the afternoon to show me a baby."
Arrived home.
Zhang Heng put the rabbit down and said, "Third sister, don't cry. Go get a knife and kill these two hares to add some fat to your belly."
"This, that"
Although everyone is sad.
But my stomach was really disappointing. Looking at the two hares on the ground, I couldn't help but swallow my saliva.
Especially Brother Zhang.
He was always idle and a gangster in the village.
Seeing two big rabbits in front of me, I couldn't care less about anything else, so I said with a smile, "My brother is a blessed man. Our family is very poor and almost starved to death, so why are we afraid of monsters?"
Look at each other.
It's not a bad thing to say.
The sky is big and the earth is big, and the best thing is to have enough food.
No matter what kind of monsters they are, they are all imaginary. These two rabbits are real things.
"Child's mother"
Father Zhang gasped: "Let's cook first."
Jiliguala.
Everyone didn't say anything, they just ate for a while.
After a while.
Full of wine and food.
Five people sat together, and the atmosphere was a bit dull.
In the end, Zhang's mother couldn't help but pushed Zhang Heng twice: "Fourth, what does that little girl look like?"
"Tiger ears, animal tail."
"She has a pointed chin and looks about the same age as me. By the way, she said her name is Hu Mengmeng."
Zhang Heng touched his belly.
People are not allowed to hunt on this mountain, and there are many wild animals.
These two old rabbits each weigh more than ten kilograms.
Put the two into the pot, remove the skin and bones, and fill the stomachs of the five people. According to the memory of the predecessor, I don’t know the last time I was full.
"Tiger-ear!"
Mother Zhang whispered: "Could it be the little mountain god in the Tiger King Temple?"
Looking at each other.
No one knew how to answer.
You know, the legendary tiger in the Temple of the Tiger King wants to eat people.
Little Zhang Heng is in the company of the tiger's daughter. If he doesn't do anything right, he will be swallowed up and become a traitor.
Thinking of Zhang Heng's tragic fate in the future.
The third sister couldn't help but cry again, and blamed herself: "I didn't take good care of my little brother. If something happens to my little brother, I, I won't be able to live either."
Zhang Heng saw that something was wrong.
I also understood that everyone was too afraid of tigers, so I hurriedly said: "Third sister, there are differences between monsters and monsters. Some monsters like to eat people and do whatever they want, while some monsters are monsters, but they are not bad in nature.
Those who are aiming to become immortals will not only not do evil, but will be able to call upon the wind and rain, do good to others, and improve their own merits."
Said.
Zhang Heng looked at everyone again: "You don't have to be afraid. Hu Mengmeng is not a vicious person. Otherwise, why would he give rabbits to us to eat? He is obviously a good monster."
Everyone looked at the bones on the table.
If you don’t believe it, feel your belly. A full belly is not fake.
"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings."
"Don't worry about me."
Zhang Heng took a sip of wild vegetable soup and went out: "I'm full, go find Hu Mengmeng, you can eat."
Boom!
Just talking.
There was a thunder outside.
Zhang Heng looked at the sky and muttered: "You have to go quickly, otherwise your clothes will get wet and I won't have anything to change."
