After the divorce, I became a mountain god

Chapter 75 The changes brought about by burning incense

Under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.

Seeing Wang Guifen walking away, a group of old men and women discussed curiously.

"What is this girl carrying in these big and small bags? Why does it smell like rice to me?"

"I also smell sweet candy!"

"No way! Who would be willing to buy something so valuable and not just for the New Year!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a child trotted over.

"Grandma, grandma, I want to eat sweets!"

"Ah? You kid, why did you suddenly remember this thing?"

"When we were on the field just now, the aunt gave me a piece of sweet candy. It was so sweet! But it was too small and not enough to eat!"

A group of old men and women were immediately dumbfounded.

Really sweet candy?
Is it possible that the husband's family of Lao Wang's daughter has become rich?
At this moment, suddenly, an exclamation came.

Everyone under the big locust tree looked for someone to go out, and saw Wang Guifen running out in a panic outside the Tutu Temple at the entrance of the village.

"Guifen? What's wrong?"

"Second daughter, what happened?"

The two old ladies stood up and looked over, shouting from a distance.

"Auntie, is there something weird in this temple?" Wang Guifen said nervously while breathing heavily, glancing into the temple from time to time.

This earth temple has a history of many years. It is only the size of a house and has no yard.

There is only a screen placed at the entrance. On the screen are written the words "Barrier with Thousand Eyes, Mountain God and Land Live Together".

At this moment, two of the old men and women who were originally sitting under the big locust tree came over quickly with relatively nimble legs and feet.

"Strange? What's weird?"

Wang Guifen picked up the long incense stick in her hand, pointed at the Tutu Temple and said, "I was thinking about putting incense sticks for Tutu Master inside, but the incense couldn't be lit. Even the candlelight was flickering. It’s like he’s avoiding me on purpose.”

"Ah? How is that possible? Don't scare yourself. It's windy, right? It happened to be blowing." The big-footed aunt from before said with a smile.

"But I tried several times and couldn't light it! Aunt Bigfoot, why don't you go in and give it a try!" As she spoke, Wang Guifen handed over the incense in her hand.

Aunt Bigfoot took the scent from Wang Guifen, shook her head and said, "You girl, you are so talkative. Just give it a try, come with me."

After that, the little old lady took the incense and walked into the Tutu Temple first.

Wang Guifen and another old lady also hurriedly followed.

After walking around the screen, you can see the clay statues enshrined in the temple.

It had the appearance of a kind old man, wearing a linen gown, holding a cane in one hand and stroking his beard with the other.

Wearing a long-brimmed straw hat on his head, he looks forward with a smile, giving people a friendly feeling.

This is the statue of the earth god.

In front of the statue is an incense table. There is a plate of relatively fresh fruits and vegetables on the incense table. Next to it are two oil lamps and a small bundle of standing incense.

Aunt Bigfoot reached out and held the incense in her hand toward the flame of the oil lamp.

While muttering: "Isn't this quite simple? It's not as difficult as you said!"

Soon, the flame burned one end of the incense stick, and the top of the incense stick burned red and was already burning.

"Here, you girl, if you haven't come back for so many days, you've become a stranger to Grandpa Tu, who you worshiped since childhood, right?"

Wang Guifen smiled awkwardly and took the burning incense handed over by Aunt Bigfoot.

He took two steps back and knelt on the futon on the ground. He bowed a few times to the statue of the Earth God in front of him, then stood up and put the incense in the incense burner.

After simply doing this, Wang Guifen exchanged a few words with Aunt Bigfoot, then left the Earth Temple and walked towards her parents' home.

What few people noticed was that they were only a few steps away.

The already lit incense suddenly and inexplicably started to burn faster and faster.After a while, it turned into ashes and then burned out.

At the same time, Xu Bo'an, who had just installed earth buildings for the villagers in the backing village and was observing the villagers' house selection process, suddenly felt a calling coming from the mountain temple.

Xu Boan subconsciously focused his attention on the mountain temple, and the scene of the mountain temple appeared in his mind.

It was still the vision of the main person being enshrined, but the difference was that Xu Boan suddenly found that the scene in front of him was no longer just the original scene.

In front of him, there were actually two more miniature light groups, floating in the air not far away.

The first one is like a miniature version of the scene inside the mountain temple.

The second was a strange sight that had never been seen before.

Xu Bo'an's curious mind chose the unknown second light group.

Suddenly, there was a change in front of my eyes.

The original scene inside the mountain temple turned into a completely unfamiliar scene.

Xu Boan looked at the scene in front of him curiously.

Not far away is a simple long incense table. On the incense table, there is a plate of apple-shaped fruits, two cucumbers, and a handful of small yellow wild fruits from the mountains.

On the two sides of the incense table are two retro oil lamps, burning soybean-sized flames.

Next to the oil lamp is a small bundle of standing incense.

There is a small stone-carved incense burner placed in the middle. In the incense burner, a standing incense stick is inserted into it, and the incense smoke rises.

Huh?
Xu Boan instantly realized something was wrong.

This incense seems to burn faster than ordinary incense.

It's like the difference between a person smoking normally and taking two puffs.

After a while, Xu Bo'an saw that the incense had brightly stained a small section, and a lot of the incense ashes had also fallen off.

After observing for a while, Xu Boan felt bored and continued to observe other furnishings in the room.

Not far behind the incense table is a straw futon for pilgrims to kneel down and worship.

Further away, there is a hollow wooden screen with some words written on it, but Xu Boan can't distinguish it.

Because there was a screen blocking it, Xu Boan couldn't see more of the scene outside.

But there seemed to be a sound coming from outside.

"Aunt Bigfoot, I'm going back first!"

"Go back quickly, Guifen, your mother will be extremely happy."

Guifen?

Xu Boan's eyes narrowed.

This name seems to come from a villager in Kaoshan Village who just left in the morning and said he was going back to his parents' home, right?

Could it be the sound of her chatting with someone else?
Xu Boan was just about to concentrate and continue listening carefully, when suddenly, a feeling of fatigue came from his mind.

Xu Boan was quite curious and subconsciously thought of eating something sour to refresh himself.

He grabbed it casually and grabbed the handful of mountain yellow wild fruits on the incense table in front of him.

The next moment, a feeling of detachment came from my mind.

The scene in front of Xu Boan suddenly changed, and he returned to the familiar mountain temple again.

Xu Boan searched carefully out of curiosity, but could no longer see the two light groups that originally existed in front of him.

Strange?
what 's wrong?
Xu Bo'an muttered and shook his head, subconsciously preparing to pat his thigh, but suddenly he found something seemed to be in his hand.

Xu Bo'an looked at his hand and suddenly showed a surprised expression.

In his hand, there were several yellow wild fruits from the mountains!

Go ahead, wasn't this wild fruit something I just caught on the incense table that strangely appeared in the temple?
That place doesn't seem to belong to the small world that I can see right now!
