I Come to Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 278 - 3: The Elf Nurtured by the Mountains and Forests (3/3)

"Huh?"

Just as Li Boyang wanted to pull the view of the "Map of Mountains and Rivers" to a more distant place.

He suddenly paused for a moment, then pulled the image back to Li Family Village.

"What's wrong?"

Noticing this scene, Xiluo quickly asked.

"Almost forgot something..."

With the image of the "Map of Mountains and Rivers" leisurely spinning.

Li Boyang finally stopped it at the Mountain God Reservoir behind Li Family Village.

After all these years of development, the Mountain God Reservoir has changed quite a bit.

Here not only has the most complete, largest water infrastructure of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

Mountain people have also built a series of workshops and factories around this reservoir.

I must mention here.

Li Family Village's Mountain God Reservoir is said to be the closest reservoir to Yunmeng Marsh.

Plus the favoritism of the Red Fish, there is not only abundant water stored here all year round.

Even the various spirit monster creatures in the water are constantly present, a thriving and competitive outlook.

Out of reverence for the Red Fish, the mountain people seldom go deep into the reservoir.

They just build various water channels and bridges along the edge of the reservoir.

After all, everyone knows, although the reservoir was built by the mountain people.

If you really trace its origins and current scale, Li Boyang and the maintenance of that Water God cannot be ignored.

Occasionally, some daring children secretly sneak near the reservoir, feeding various foods to the human-faced fish in the water.

Similarly, whenever a child accidentally falls into the nearby water channels, tributaries, the human-faced fish will always lift them up and return them to the shore first.

Over time, this has led to the Mountain God Reservoir receiving a different treatment from other reservoirs.

Besides daily maintenance and sacrifices.

Whenever anything happens, the mountain people always communicate with the Red Fish first.

Only after getting the other's approval do they proceed with the next step.

Despite standing from the Red Fish's point of view, she actually doesn't care that much, and even thinks those mountain people are somewhat annoying.

But unable to resist the mountain people's enthusiasm, a large shrine was specially built near the reservoir for the worship of the Red Fish's idol.

And right behind this shrine dedicated to the Red Fish, somehow a large patch of gourd vine quietly grew.

Unlike those optimized, screened gourds already completely "toolized" by Li Boyang.

These gourd vines still retain the most primitive, rough growth style, absorbing nutrients from the soil within a hundred meters, yet no gourd ever grows.

Moreover, the toughness of these gourd vines far exceeds common imagination.

Initially, some mountain people tried to remove those gourd vines.

But they were astonished to find that ordinary knives and axes couldn't cut through those gourd vines at all.

When the mountain people noticed the growth of these gourd vines had already impacted the shrine and decided to uproot them.

The Red Fish appeared voluntarily.

The Red Fish told them, these gourd vines were intentionally planted here by her.

They would only grow near the shrine without encroaching on farmland and water sources, so the mountain people shouldn't mind them.

Thus, these gourd vines stayed rightfully, even adding a touch of mystery due to the Red Fish's words.

However, Li Boyang knew very well these gourd vines aren't infertile.

Instead, the fruits they bore were hidden deep within the gourd vines, spirits born from the mountain forests.

...........................

Mountain God Reservoir, amidst the rushing streams.

This is not a water channel built by the mountain people, but a natural stream flowing through Li Family Village.

Yet through expansion and renovation over the years, this stream has long become one of the main waterways of Li Family Village, supplying water to this village of thousands.

And right in the middle of this main waterway.

A large unihorned water buffalo is leisurely swimming, only a head and part of its back floating above the water.

When the villagers along the river see this large water buffalo, they simply laugh and swear before ignoring it.

Because all the villagers of Li Family Village know, this large water buffalo was brought back by Li Boyang.

Although this large water buffalo loves joking with children, it also loves lazing around.

But from its human-like eyes and behavior, it can be seen this large water buffalo is either a god or a spirit monster.

So as long as this large water buffalo remembers to come home at night.

Even the usually strict Chen Yun is very lenient with it, hardly caring where it wanders during the day.

"Huh? Why are you still here?"

Just as the unihorned rhinoceros closed its eyes, enjoying the pleasure of the water flowing over its body, a slightly sharp voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

"Hmm? Ginseng Doll?"

Glancing over at the sound, the unihorned rhinoceros saw a familiar Ginseng Doll emerging from the ground.

The unihorned rhinoceros naturally recognized this Ginseng Doll.

Or rather, within the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, few gods don't know of this Ginseng Doll.

Though the Ginseng Doll isn't a god, it possesses a longer lifespan than a god.

Even by the most conservative time estimate, this Ginseng Doll has been alive for at least over a thousand years.

Meanwhile, its adopted child is the most effective lieutenant under the Five-Colored Dragon Dog Panhu—Jiao, who even participated in the battle to hunt Wuzhiqi's Second Prince a few years ago. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"Hmm what hmm? Your child is about to be born! Don't you know?"

Hearing the Ginseng Doll calling out, the unihorned rhinoceros instinctively opened its mouth to retort.

"You old thing, old ox like me is still single, where would the child come from?"

"If you have the itch to be a father again, take those few annoying Huo Dou from the village away, I believe they must be..."

Before the unihorned rhinoceros finished speaking, the Ginseng Doll, speechlessly, questioned back.

"You old bull, you haven't forgotten that gourd vine, have you?"

Reminded by the Ginseng Doll, the unihorned rhinoceros, originally wanting to retort, suddenly widened its bovine eyes, its entire body standing up from the stream.

"Gourd vine? The gourd vine bore fruit!?"

Unable to hide the shock and joy on his face, the unihorned rhinoceros hurriedly went ashore to the Ginseng Doll's side.

"You should have told me sooner, if you had told me sooner I would've come up!"

Not allowing the Ginseng Doll to retort at all, the unihorned rhinoceros instantly pushed the Ginseng Doll onto his back, then suddenly stomped the ground and started sprinting.

Rumble rumble rumble...

Due to the commotion caused by the unihorned rhinoceros being too big.

The mountain people from the nearby terraces cast astonished looks at him.

Helplessly, in his ecstatic state, the unihorned rhinoceros cared little, sprinting uphill effortlessly, faintly producing a blue cloud beneath his hooves.

Clearly, being too excited.

The unihorned rhinoceros momentarily forgot to contain himself, unleashing Li Boyang's signature "Soaring Clouds and Mist" divine power.
