Dawn in the Fairy Mountain Chapter 118 : Snow Mountain Goddess
"The imperial court issued a law that officials are not allowed to privately sacrifice to gods other than ancestors and Confucian and Taoist sages. However, I have to admit that the Snow Mountain Goddess is indeed magical."
Tao Qicai, who was originally frightened and frightened, even though he had shown his disbelief in the Snow Mountain Goddess in front of Su Mu and others before, when he talked about the Snow Mountain Goddess, he became much calmer.
He didn't even feel this change himself, and only Su Mu and the others noticed this change when they watched him.
Tao Qicai's voice became much quieter, "At first, the heavy snow came suddenly, and many firewood men who went up to the mountain to collect firewood were trapped in the mountain. Although I sent people to search and rescue with all our strength, the mountain roads were frozen and the strong winds kept us in trouble.
Search and rescue are slow.”
"The people I sent out searched and rescued for nearly half a month, but eight people were still not found. Everyone thought they were dead. Later, the wind and snow gradually subsided, and they miraculously came down from the mountain."
Hearing this, Su Mu also made some guesses and said, "Were they saved by the Snow Mountain Goddess?"
"That mountain is not called Snow God Mountain."
Tao Qicai looked over and muttered: "It turned out to be called Yanshan. After the eight firemen came back, they claimed that they met a temple in the mountain. The person worshiped in the temple was named the Snow Mountain Goddess. Of course we don't know who this deity is."
"But they miraculously returned unscathed, and their words will certainly be very convincing. They said that after praying in the temple, they felt lukewarm, neither hungry nor thin."
"What happens next? Someone should go up the mountain to seek confirmation, right?" Su Mu asked.
"Yes,"
Tao Qicai said: "Later, due to the increasingly serious snowstorm, the court had no food for a long time. It was a very difficult period. I heard that some people were starving to death, so many people went to climb Yanshan. After they came down, they said they had also found the Snow Mountain Goddess Temple, and they also brought
Come down and eat."
Mo Qianyu noticed that this guy said the word "heard" and felt a little chilled in his heart.
As the chief official of a county, he didn't know whether it was true that the deceased under his care was true. He must have just said that he sent people to the mountain to search and rescue, which was just nonsense.
Of course, this moment is not the time to care about these things.
Just listen to him continue: "Since then, some people have gradually called the rock mountain the Snow God Mountain."
"So you are offering sacrifices to the mountain just to find the Snow Mountain Goddess Temple?"
Su Mu came to a conclusion, but also had doubts, "But, what you mean, those people who found the Snow Mountain Goddess Temple didn't offer sacrifices to the mountain before, so why did they sacrifice the mountain this time?"
"It's because after the trainer died outside the city, we started sending people to climb Snow Mountain, but no one who went up saw the temple again,"
Tao Qicai said: "Old Li Tou said that we have only been asking for things and not knowing how to repay the Snow Mountain Goddess, which is why today's sacrifice to the mountain was born."
"Snow Mountain Goddess..."
Su Mu muttered the name, then looked at Mo Qianyu and Tan Rusu, "Have you ever heard of this person?"
"I haven't heard of it, and I don't need to hear it,"
Tan Rusu was very disdainful of this god whom he had never heard of, and said angrily: "In this era, there are other gods who appear and give food. I knew it was fake as soon as I heard it. Maybe everything is fake."
This snow mountain goddess is directing and acting on her own."
Of course she didn't think too much about this, because she didn't like thinking.
Su Mu and Mo Qianyu knew the boy's identity, so they were even more certain that this was not directed and performed by the Snow Mountain Goddess.
However, Tan Rusu's words are also very reasonable. The gods appeared and gave food. This is most likely someone who is pretending. What they are doing is difficult to know at the moment.
"I have seen it in a miscellaneous book, but it was only a very rough record,"
Mo Qianyu looked at Su Mu and said, "It is recorded in the book that the Snow Mountain Goddess is a deity of the Brahma Sect and the daughter of the Snow Mountain God."
The Buddhist sect in Ximi Kingdom is mainly divided into three temples, namely Brahma Temple, Tianlong Temple and Kuchan Temple. Although the three temples are all Buddhist sects, they actually have their own inheritance and different teachings. The Brahma sect is
Headed by Brahma Temple.
"Is it related to the Buddhist sect again?" Su Mu said this, of course he was thinking of Luo Shi whom he met in the wooden space of Kongkong Mountain.
"Um,"
Mo Qianyu said: "I think it is necessary for us to meet this snow mountain goddess for a while."
Hear this.
Tao Qicai was anxious, "Several immortal masters, can you help us save that young man now?"
Su Mu smiled slyly and said, "Don't worry, Lord County Lord. You have actually missed a big doubt."
After Monk Hai finished eating the banana, he noticed the smile on the Taoist Priest's face and his nose twitched. He found that he smelled the smell of silver, so he hurried to Su Mu, looked at Tao Qicai and said: "Your Excellency, our Taoist Priest
Of course I will save that kid,"
"But...just casting the spell consumes a lot of your own spiritual energy. When the time comes, your hands will become sore and it will be very troublesome."
He still clearly remembered that when he first met the Taoist priest, he told Lin Yuanwai in such a tactful way that he only hoped that the county magistrate would not be as stingy as Lin Yuanwai.
"Don't worry, Immortal Master,"
Tao Qicai couldn't understand what he was saying, so he stood up and said, "To be honest, Master Immortal, someone in my ancestors also asked for immortals, so they left this house. I will definitely thank you generously."
"What's wrong with the county magistrate? Don't listen to this little monkey's nonsense,"
At this time, Su Mu pushed Monk Hai away and said: "It's my fault for not educating this rogue monkey well. I, the Shushan disciples, take it as our duty to eliminate violence, kill demons, and protect the common people. How can we care about those things outside our body?"
Right, senior sister?"
Mo Qianyu didn't bother to pay attention to him and went straight to the ice coffin in the courtyard outside the house.
Su Mu felt a little embarrassed, looked at Tan Rusu and said, "Really, little junior sister."
Tan Rusu said with a strange tone: "Of course I know what the Lord County Master is thinking, but how can I know what Senior Brother is thinking?"
...
"Just now you said there is another doubt, what is it?"
In the courtyard, Mo Qianyu observed the young man in the ice coffin. When Su Mu walked out of the house, he asked.
Su Mu did not give in and said directly: "The letter left by the man said that those who escape will die, so the trainer who wanted to go to the city died at the gate of the city. But today they all left the city, but nothing happened.
Isn’t that strange?”
"Isn't it strange that they just went to worship the mountain and didn't escape?" Tan Rusu asked.
Mo Qianyu nodded, not understanding why Su Mu felt strange.
"Have you forgotten?"
Su Mu broke off a nearby branch, pointed at the young man in the coffin, and said: "They sacrificed the mountain to pray for the Snow Mountain Goddess. According to the rumors of the people, this Snow Mountain Goddess can call the wind and rain, and can change shapes. The temples can also change everywhere.
"
"With such a powerful existence, that person actually didn't make any move. Isn't he afraid that the so-called Snow Mountain Goddess will really come down from the mountain to help the people kill him? Or is he convinced that the Snow Mountain Goddess will not pose any threat to him, or..."
"It seems to make sense,"
Tan Rusu interrupted Su Mu and said excitedly: "In other words, the Snow Mountain Goddess is himself."
Su Mu also thought about this possibility, but if it is really the case.
He couldn't figure out why the royal family would do these things, so he ignored Tan Rusu. "In addition, this person doesn't even allow people to go to the city. It shows that he doesn't want to see other monks intervene, so why do we enter the city?"
