After the divorce, I became a mountain god

Looking at the peaches in front of him that looked like a row of bowling pins, Xu Bo'an became more and more delighted.

It was obvious at first glance that this thing was not an ordinary thing. After hearing the transformed peach tree talk about its effects, Xu Boan naturally knew how precious it was.

Without saying a word, Xu Bo'an reached out and put all the peaches into his pocket and temporarily placed them in the mountain temple.

Then he said, "Okay, I accept your kindness. From now on, when I'm not here, you must fulfill your duties and do your work well. And help me take care of these little guys. I will definitely not treat you unfairly, understand?"

Xu Bo'an's sealing of the peach tree had already given her a great opportunity, which was a great favor to the peach tree.

Naturally, the peach tree would not refuse Xu Bo'an's small request.

The graceful woman on the peach tree bowed and said, "Grandpa Mountain God, please rest assured. You have been very kind to me. If it weren't for your silence, my cultivation would have been destroyed, and there would be no hope of rebuilding it, and the next transformation would be even more distant.

Although I dare not say that a man's words are as good as gold, I dare to swear to the heaven that from now on, Xiaoshu will live up to your trust, work hard, and learn to be a good person. "

Xu Boan asked curiously, "From what you said, if I don't take action, you will become an ordinary tree?"

The woman looked downcast and said, "The little tree can be what it is today, all thanks to the wisp of fairy power in the peach pit in the past. But that little fairy power is only enough for me to grow to this day. If I want to make a breakthrough, it will be even more difficult in this place with thin spiritual energy.

Fortunately, the laws of nature in this world have such rules, which allowed the little tree to have the opportunity to meet you, the mountain god, and receive your golden words and jade words. "

Xu Bo'an frowned and asked, "Oh? You know that the spiritual energy in this place is thin? So, you have a comparison? Do you know of other places with thick spiritual energy?"

The woman shook her head and said, "That's not the case. The little tree has been growing here for hundreds of years. I have heard many conversations between passers-by and various spirits and gods. I didn't understand the meaning of many of the conversations at first, but now, after summarizing and analyzing them over the past few years, I have gradually figured them out."

Xu Bo'an couldn't wait to ask: "What kind of spirits and gods have you seen? When did they happen?"

The woman shook her head and said, "At that time, I was just beginning to gain spiritual wisdom. I didn't understand worldly affairs, didn't know time, and couldn't communicate with people, so I knew nothing. The speculations I know today are just some of the things I have analyzed and summarized over the years based on the fragmentary memories."

Seeing that he didn't get any useful information, Xu Bo'an sighed in disappointment.

After thinking for a while, Xu Bo'an said, "Oh, there is one more thing. How many tree species are there in this forest? Do you have any way to distinguish them as soon as possible?"

Xu Bo'an was thinking about the deal with Boss Li. Although he was able to find the trees, there were still some minor troubles.

Now that I have such a capable younger brother under my command, I naturally won’t waste extra energy on this.

The woman blinked and then shook her head.

Just when Xu Bo'an thought she had no other options, he heard the woman say, "There's no need for any methods. I know there are a total of 83 types of trees in this forest. The most common are pine, poplar, and ash trees. There are a total of..."

Wow, you remember it so clearly!

In fact, Xu Bo'an didn't know that this peach tree was originally gifted from the fairyland, living on wood, and originally had the ability to control this place to the limit. These things were already imprinted in her mind, and mentioning them at this time was as simple as eating and drinking water.

Seeing that she was about to continue her introduction, Xu Boan interrupted her and said, "Okay, that's not what I'm asking. It's not important. Just know it. I want to know if you can help me find the Dalbergia tree if I want to find it here."

The woman opened her mouth and said, "Of course, there are a total of 112 Dalbergia trees in this area, 83 large trees, 12 small trees, and 17 seedlings. I wonder what arrangements Grandpa Mountain God has made?"

Xu Boan ordered: "I want these trees to be useful, so please help me!"

The woman smiled and said, "Dalbergia wood has a pleasant fragrance and can also repel mosquitoes. The Mountain God must want to move these trees to the vicinity of the Mountain God Temple to benefit the mountain people. This is very simple. I can uproot them and then send them all to the Mountain God Temple for you."

When Xu Boan heard this, he agreed with it.

Yes, this is a good idea. Why didn’t I think of it?

If these more than one hundred huanghuali trees were transplanted around Kaoshan Village, wouldn't the villagers be free from mosquitoes?
But this time he had promised Boss Li, and they had a business agreement before, so Xu Boan naturally could not break the promise.

What’s more, in life, the harassment of mosquitoes is a necessary suffering, so we can’t let them be too spoiled!
Moreover, the Dalbergia odorifera tree is not scarce in the bonsai world. If Xu Boan needs it in the future, he can just go find some.

Thinking of this, Xu Boan decided that it would be best to complete the transaction as soon as possible, firstly to fulfill his promise, and secondly to accumulate some wealth.

Xu Bo'an pointed to the empty space in front of him and said to the transformed peach tree, "From these agarwood trees, you only need to pick out the big trees, and then gather them on this empty space. Don't take the roots or branches, just the thick trunks."

The woman on the peach tree responded, "Little Tree understands. I wonder if Grandpa Mountain God has any other instructions."

Xu Boan waved his hand and said, "Nothing for now, but I am quite curious... You are both trees, there should be no taboos between you and them, right?"

The woman smiled and said, "Grandpa Mountain God, you are joking. Don't say that we are not the same species. Even if we are the same species, before we open our spiritual intelligence, we are just ordinary plants."

Xu Bo'an nodded slightly and said, "I understand. Okay, you can take care of this matter first. I still have something to deal with, so I'll leave first."

The woman on the peach tree said, "The little tree still needs to strengthen itself. I'm sorry I can't see you off. I'm here to say farewell to Grandpa Mountain God!"

Xu Boan didn't reply. Just as he was about to shift his attention away from the bonsai, he suddenly noticed that the woman on the peach tree flashed and disappeared.

Xu Boan was horrified when he saw this, and looked at the peach tree in amazement.

After looking with his eyes wide open for a long time, Xu Boan found that there was still nothing on the peach tree.

But that peach tree really exists.

Xu Bo'an, with doubts in his heart, asked Li Wufu and others nearby, "Li Wufu, did you see a person standing on the peach tree just now?"

Li Wufu shook his head and knocked on the peach tree again, saying with a shocked expression, "I have never seen it. I am a mortal with mortal eyes and cannot see the signs of immortality."

Xu Boan nodded. If Li Wufu said he didn’t see it, then of course he really didn’t see it.

This means that the woman just now is most likely the incarnation of this peach tree. She is not a physical entity at all. Since there is no physical entity to be revealed, Li Wufu and others naturally cannot see her.

Xu Bo'an said, "Okay, it's okay. You guys are hunting in the woods, right? How's the harvest?" Li Wufu replied respectfully, "There are no prey in the nearby woods. I originally wanted to take everyone to the deep woods to see the situation and try my luck, but I never thought I would encounter such a miracle here, and I haven't even started hunting yet."

Xu Bo'an glanced at the huge forest and said, "You didn't hunt anything in such a large forest? You walked so deep, I'm afraid you won't be able to return before dark."

Li Wufu smiled bitterly and said, "It can't be helped. To be honest, we have already killed most of the prey in the nearby forests! I should teach everyone to hunt in moderation and selectively release animals, but everyone has been short of meat these days, and we have forgotten our ancestors' advice for a while."

Hunting is the same as fishing. You have to catch the big ones and let the small ones go in order to maintain the ecological balance of an area and better nourish the prey. Otherwise, if you hunt too much, a certain animal will become extinct. If this animal in this area cannot be replenished within a certain period of time, then the animals at the next level in the food chain will become rampant, which will in turn affect the balanced development of the ecology.

It's like if all the natural enemies of rats, such as owls and snakes, were captured in an area, the area would be overrun with rats.

Rats have a strong reproductive ability. After a short period of time, the crops here will be eaten up, which will affect the food intake of other species.

Gradually, this area became deserted.

A young man at the side said, "In reply to the mountain god, due to the famine, there are fewer prey in the forest. We are also trying to survive. I hope the mountain god will forgive us."

Xu Boan doesn't care about this. After all, "survival of the fittest" is also the law of nature.

Xu Boan said casually: "It's okay, just be careful and do what you need to do. There are quite a few prey deep in the forest."

Xu Boan paid special attention and saw that within a range of three to five hundred meters ahead, there were indeed a lot of wild animals such as rabbits and pheasants, as well as a few big wild boars!

Li Wufu smiled awkwardly and said, "Grandpa Mountain God, this place is a little weird. The ferocious wolves are very timid. I dare not go there."

Upon hearing this, Xu Bo'an immediately warned, "Haha, don't worry, I have already taken the tree spirit of this tree as my little hairy god. From now on, she will protect you too!"

Li Wufu was surprised when he heard this, and then he said with great joy: "That's great, thank you for the care of the Mountain God. The Mountain God has a long life and boundless magical powers!"

Naturally, everyone followed Li Wufu in praising him.

Xu Bo'an instructed again: "Okay, after you go back, you can tell everyone about this, so that everyone can feel more at ease in the future. As long as they don't leave too far away, they will be well protected."

Li Wufu asked curiously, "I wonder how far you are talking about, Grandpa Mountain God. I want to know more about it so that I can explain it to everyone."

Xu Boan took a glance and found that this matter was really difficult to express in words.

He immediately said, "You may not understand what I'm saying, but the surrounding area you are in now is fine. Next, I will help you mark the limited location, so that you will have a clear idea when you hunt in the future."

Ever since Xu Boan used the power of incense and vows to expand the scope of the bonsai last time, the area inside has become very large and almost meets the living needs of the existing villagers.

As long as you don't go out to the town market or the county town, you will basically not go beyond the range of bonsai.

However, hunting teams like Li Wufu need to search for prey in deep mountains and forests all year round. The more they search, the deeper they will go. If this continues for a long time, it will be easy for them to go out of bounds.

The next step is to find a way to set up a layer of protective partition net. When people walk near the partition net, they will know to be vigilant.

It's roughly equivalent to the dividing line.

Li Wufu said gratefully: "Thank you, Grandpa Mountain God, for considering me and others. I am sorry to bother you, Grandpa Mountain God."

Xu Boan said, "It's okay. When you hunt in the forest, you must pay attention to safety. If you encounter any problems, just call the tree spirit!"

Li Wufu and the others naturally expressed their gratitude again, and then happily continued to go deeper into the mountains and forests to carry out hunting operations.

After temporarily storing the peaches in the mountain temple, Xu Boan soon stopped paying attention to the situation inside the bonsai and walked out of the bathroom with a smile.

……

Ouyang Najie was still there recalling Xu Boan's protection of him over the past two days. The more she thought about it, the more moved she became. When she saw Xu Boan appear in her sight, she immediately pounced on him again, and was very affectionate.

Love naturally grows stronger when it is deep. The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and at this time something big had just been settled. They were very excited, and for a moment they were like a young couple who hadn't seen each other for a few days. They were immediately attracted to each other, and a tender love affair was natural.

After a long time, the two hugged each other and told each other about their lovesickness.

The two did not separate until Shi Heng arranged for someone to come and call them to finish their meal.

However, the two declined Shi Heng's kindness and expressed their desire to go out for a walk and eat some Chinese snacks in Chinatown.

It was not until it got dark that the two went out to look for food.

There are many domestic snacks in Chinatown. After the two of them tasted them, Xu Boan originally wanted to send Ouyang Najie back to the residence of Huashu Group, but Ouyang Najie said that she had professional classes the next day and didn't want to delay.

Thinking that there was no danger or threat now, Xu Boan sent Ouyang Najie back to school.

After seeing Ouyang Najie off, Xu Boan called Shi Heng.

Shi Heng answered Xu Bo'an's call with a smile, and immediately complained: "Doctor Xu, you can't enjoy the tonic soup I prepared for you. I heard that you went out with Miss Ouyang."

Xu Boan said, "That's right. She's been under a lot of pressure these past two days. I took her out to relax and it's a good opportunity to send her back to school."

Shi Heng said with a smile: "Going back to school? In that case, Doctor Xu, you will have to stay alone in your empty room tonight!"

Xu Bo'an smiled and said, "Okay, no more jokes. Boss Shi, I'm calling because I want to ask you for help with something."

Shi Heng said: "Doctor Xu, just tell me what you want to say."

Xu Boan put forward a request and asked: "It's like this, can you help me find an idle warehouse? It doesn't have to be too big, just enough to store a few hundred cubic meters of goods. Do you think it's convenient?" (End of this chapter)
