Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

"Girl, we're here. Yufeng Mountain is right in front of us." The old man pointed ahead, his face filled with pride.

Yufeng Mountain, this mysterious mountain, which is said to hide endless secrets and adventures, is now finally presented to them.

"Yufeng Mountain? Old man, is this the place where we are looking for cause and effect?" Xue Yao looked at the old man in confusion. She didn't know much about this place, she only knew that it was their destination.

The old man looked at her puzzled eyes, smiled and nodded.

Xueyao herself hadn't noticed how easily she'd come to call him "old man." In her heart, this title had long since become a unique tacit understanding between her and the old man. The old man's heart blossomed with joy. This girl, she was the only one who dared to call him that.

This is an ancient relic with mountains reaching into the clouds, as if it is a mysterious world hidden above the clouds.

At the foot of the mountain, ancient trees tower into the sky, and exotic flowers bloom in profusion, creating a vibrant scene. Here, the mountains and waters complement each other, and the scenery is pleasant, just like a fairyland on earth.

The small village appears and disappears, giving people a sense of tranquility and peace.

At first glance, the village looks a bit like Taojia Village at the foot of Meihua Mountain, but it is larger than Taojia Village, which makes Xueyao feel familiar.

The villagers must have been hardworking and simple, living a life of working from sunrise to sunset. This land must also have many touching stories and beautiful legends.

At the foot of Meihua Mountain, the lives of the Tao family and their clan have undergone tremendous changes.

Driven by Tao Xuzhi, many people work in Liancheng's grain stores and poultry and livestock exchanges. They earn a good income and their families live more and more affluently.

Thinking of this, Xue Yao couldn't help but curl her lips slightly.

Xueyao's expression did not escape the old man's eyes, but he thought that Xueyao was quite satisfied with this place.

"Girl, we have finally found the place of cause and effect. It's up to you now." The old man looked at Xue Yao seriously, expecting her to gain something here.

Of course, I also hope that his trip will be worthwhile.

"Okay, I'll do my best, don't worry, old man."

"Well, girl, let's rest at the foot of the mountain tonight and go back into the mountain early tomorrow morning." The old man thought that they had been rushing on the road for days, and felt a little sorry for the girl.

"Okay, then let's go down and find a place to stay in this village." Xue Yao also wanted to take a look at the village and learn about this mysterious place from the villagers.

I believe that the small village can be safe here, and there will be no great evil in these mountains.

Xueyao nodded in agreement, her eyes gleaming with anticipation.

They fell from the air, landed in a deserted place outside the village, and then walked towards the village on foot.

Walking along the winding path, we gradually entered the village. In the village, the houses were scattered in an orderly manner, the chickens and dogs could be heard, and the scene was peaceful.

"Old man, this village is really beautiful. Most of the houses are made of blue bricks and black tiles, and they have an ancient style." Xue Yao looked at the familiar environment around her, which was very similar to that in Taojia Village, and felt warm in her heart.

"Yes, I didn't expect that the environment of this village at the foot of Yufeng Mountain is so beautiful. It is really pleasing to the eye." The old man said with emotion.

"I believe that the villagers here are simple and honest, and would be willing to share their stories with us?" A hint of anticipation flashed in Xueyao's eyes.

"Don't worry, girl, we will find the cause and effect we need here." The old man smiled and was full of confidence in Xue Yao.

Suddenly thinking of something, Xueyao curled the corners of her lips slightly, raised an eyebrow and looked at the old man, "Old man, you are not kind."

"Huh? Girl, you..." After hearing what Xue Yao said, the old man was a little confused, and thought that this girl was really naughty.

Seeing that the old man was anxious and his words were not clear, Xue Yao raised her eyebrows again, "Isn't it, isn't it, am I right?"

The old man knew that the girl might come up with some tricks, so he stroked his not-too-long beard and said, "Girl, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Don't beat around the bush."

Seeing the old man's puzzled look, Xue Yao laughed, "Old man, you don't want me to know your name, do you?"

Well, this girl really can’t handle him at all. She thought it was a big deal.

"You girl, you didn't even ask me. I am Dou Yuntian, are you satisfied now?" The old man looked at Xue Yao with a smile.

Xueyao looked up at the sky, pretending to think, "Well, it's okay."

After saying that, he laughed happily again.

The two entered the village and soon found a spacious house. The house was clean and tidy, and they planned to discuss with the owner if it was possible to rest there.

In the yard, an old man was weaving something with bamboo strips. When he saw someone coming, he was a little surprised, put down his work and walked over.

It had been hundreds of years since any stranger had come here, and when the old man suddenly saw the two of them, he felt a little uneasy.

"Old friend, you don't have to be afraid. We are not bad people." Dou Yuntian saw this and said quickly, "We are on our way here and saw a family. We would like to stay for one night. Is it convenient?"

Fearing that the old man might worry, Xue Yao quickly added, "Please rest assured, senior, we won't stay here for free. We will pay the full fee and we won't miss a single cent."

After some discussion, the old man agreed when he saw that the two men did not look like bad people.

After entering the door, Xue Yao gave the old man a few ingots of silver, about fifty taels, and said, "Senior, take these first. If it's not enough, we will make up for it later."

"That's enough, that's enough. You don't need that much." As he said that, he was about to take out some and return it to Xueyao.

"Then keep them all, senior. You don't have to return them to me." Xue Yao said with a smile.

Seeing this, the old man no longer insisted, turned around and asked the servants to clean the room and prepare food.

The servants brought tea, and the old man asked them to sit down, and he sat aside.

The old man was actually very enthusiastic. When he learned that Xueyao and Dou Yuntian were outsiders, he took the initiative to share the legend of Yufeng Mountain.

Yufeng Mountain is named after its shape, which resembles a jade ruyi. Legend has it that in ancient times, the jade on the mountain was used by emperors, symbolizing the power of the king.

The Yufeng Temple on the mountain was built thousands of years ago. It is very popular and attracts countless believers to come and worship.

The Buddha statues in the temple are solemn and majestic, and the pines and cypresses surrounding the temple are ancient and lush, giving people a feeling of tranquility and peace.

The mystery of Yufeng Mountain stems from its many unsolved mysteries, such as the stone carvings in the caves, which are of various shapes and lifelike, as if telling the stories of ancient people's lives.

There is also the Stonehenge known as the "Eye of the Sky". The stones are arranged in an orderly manner, as if it is an ancient code that no one has been able to decipher so far.

There are many myths and legends in this mysterious land.

According to legend, an ancient god once cast a spell here to save the people who were suffering from floods.

In order to express gratitude to the god for his gift, the people built a temple on the top of the mountain to worship the god.

Later, the temple collapsed, leaving only broken walls and ruins, but on this day every year, people still come here to hold grand sacrificial activities and pray for the protection of the gods.

It was not until eight hundred years ago that the clan leader of our village organized donations to rebuild the temple, and it was restored to its original appearance passed down by word of mouth by the elders.

"Senior, this village must have been around for quite a while, right?" Xue Yao asked.

The old man said, "Well, this village has a population of only 2,000, but it has a history of nearly 10,000 years."

In this beautiful land, most villagers are hardworking farmers who rely on the land to grow various crops and support their families.

In the spring, the fields are full of life, with villagers busy sowing and farming. In the autumn, the golden rice is ripe, and the villagers are laughing and reaping the year's harvest.

The villagers are hospitable and treat people sincerely.

Whenever festivals come, villagers gather together to hold colorful folk activities, such as dragon and lion dances, operas, temple fairs, etc., with laughter and joy, and the atmosphere is full of strong rural atmosphere.

This land at the foot of Yufeng Mountain has witnessed the changes of time and carried the dreams of countless people.

The people here are working hard to create a better life with their own hands.

They firmly believe that in this magical land, all good things will come as expected.

Xue Yao: "Senior, this village didn't experience much in the past. Why is the population still so small after more than ten thousand years?"

"Young lady, you don't know that Yufeng Mountain is an ancient relic. Ten thousand years ago, this was a prosperous ancient city." The old man's thoughts drifted away. "Then in that great war, the city was destroyed. After a long time, no one cared about this place, and then one of our ancestors settled here."

It turned out that the old man's surname was Lu, so the village was called Lujia Village.

After thousands of years of development, the Lu family's population once reached nearly 20,000. Unfortunately, a thousand years ago, they were attacked by demons, and only a few escaped.

Afterwards, people rebuilt their homes and the village gradually grew and developed into what it is today.

As he spoke, Mr. Lu choked up several times, as if the pain of the tragedy of the past had not yet subsided. Then, as if he had something to hide, he sighed deeply.

It seemed that every inch of land here seemed to be telling a long history, and every stone carried an ancient legend. Xue Yao understood and became very interested in everything here.

Xueyao couldn't help but sigh, "This land has witnessed the vicissitudes of life and nurtured countless stories of joy and sorrow. She felt a deep reverence for it, willing to listen to the whispers of the stones and explore the traces of time."
