Chapter 746: Master Divine
Gou'er, who really felt that he was very lucky, patted his chest and said proudly:
"Of course not! Just when the monster was about to eat me, the immortal master appeared and saved me!"
Perhaps it was the cooperation of the village chief and the surrounding villagers that made Goudan instantly forget what he had said before.
He boasted excitedly about the whole process of being rescued by Sun Wukong.
Especially when they talked about Sun Wukong pointing to the back mountain and asking him not to tell anyone, Gou'er's nose was so proud.
"...At first I thought the immortal was in league with that monster! But he turned out to be quite nice. He took me for a short walk and we arrived at the entrance of our village."
Talking about Sun Wukong's magical power of traveling several meters with one step, Goudan smacked his lips and described in detail how wonderful his experience was at that time.
This is an experience that most people don't have.
Now surrounded by everyone in amazement and admiration, Goudan felt elated.
It’s such a wonderful feeling that everyone’s attention is on me!
The villagers nearby initially just wanted to cooperate with the village chief to coax Gou'er to tell his own experience.
But after hearing the latter part, they were fascinated.
After all, when they listened to the stories told by the storytellers in the town, they knew that those were things that only happened in stories.
But now, right in front of them, there was actually such a living child who had encountered an immortal fate.
How could this not excite them?
After thinking about it carefully, Sun Wukong, who brought Gou'er back, also lost his initial sneakiness, and instead his every move revealed the immortal spirit of a hermit.
Just at this time, the wife of the village chief's youngest son sneaked into the ancestral hall.
She told her youngest son the information he had obtained from Sun Wukong.
Although Sun Wukong refused to reveal his origins.
But whether it is because of his special surname or his unfamiliarity with this area.
Everyone could see that the other party was no ordinary person.
After listening to the story of the village chief's youngest son and his wife, the village chief, who was lost in thought, suddenly slapped his thigh.
"It's right, everything is right!" the village chief suddenly exclaimed.
Seeing the village chief like this, the surrounding villagers were also filled with curiosity.
The village chief's father rolled his eyes, tapped the village chief's head and asked, "How did it happen? Tell us all, what's going on? You're making such a fuss, it's really shocking!"
The village chief, slightly embarrassed in front of so many younger people, had no choice but to explain for his father: "I'm not making a fuss. I just guessed the identity of that person..."
When he said this, the village chief deliberately lowered his voice, fearing that others would hear him.
Now, everyone's curiosity, which had already been aroused, could no longer be suppressed.
"Hey, Village Chief, please stop keeping us in suspense! What's going on? Just tell us! It's really frustrating!"
The villagers talked at once, urging the village chief to explain himself clearly.
The village chief coughed softly, quieting everyone down before he spoke, half-suspensefully, "Then let me ask you, what is the name of our mountain?"
"Kongyun Mountain!" everyone said in unison.
Suddenly, the village chief's daughter-in-law seemed to realize something and became a little uncertain:
"That guy's last name is also Kong... but that doesn't make sense, he's not familiar with our area at all.
"Not only am I unfamiliar with this area, I feel like I'm unfamiliar with everything here!"
Of course I’m not familiar with you!
When Sun Wukong was chatting with the village chief's youngest son, he also tried to find out what the more famous events were at the moment, and he didn't even understand the local customs.
When the village chief heard this, he had an expression that said, "This child is incorrigible."
"That's exactly what proves that he is the current mountain god of Kongyun Mountain!"
The village chief looked at everyone's puzzled expressions, then stroked his beard with satisfaction.
"The last time I went to town, I asked a fortune teller how to resolve the recent demonic disturbances in Kongyun Mountain."
"What did the fortune teller say? Did he say that good times will come after bad times?!"
The village chief's daughter-in-law hesitated after hearing these words.
"But didn't you say that fortune tellers are liars? And you told us not to believe the words of these charlatans..."
The village chief, who was being undone by his own daughter-in-law, waved his hands and did not refute. He just asked the surrounding villagers:
"Then tell me, if that wasn't the mountain god of Kongyun Mountain, who else would unconditionally help the children of our village escape the monster's mouth?"
When Gou Dan's father heard this, he said weakly: "Who knows, he might just be a passing immortal!"
The village chief continued to argue, "Haha, how naive! If those gods and immortals were really so kind, why would they only come out to save people when there was a demonic disaster in the mountains?"
Goudan's mother was also brainwashed by the village chief's words. She nodded and said, "I also think what the village chief said is right. How can there be so many coincidences in this world?"
"Our mountain happens to be called Kongyun Mountain, and that young man's surname is Kong? Such a unique surname is really rare!"
As soon as these words were spoken, more people supported the village chief's guess.
After making sure that everyone believed his guess, the village chief continued:
"Lord Mountain God is truly merciful. He didn't reveal his identity directly. Perhaps he was afraid we wouldn't believe him, or even more afraid he'd scare us..."
"In that case, if the Mountain God doesn't reveal his identity, we should just pretend we don't know and cooperate with him. Do you understand?"
The other villagers, including Goudan who seemed to understand what was said, nodded seriously.
"Got it. We will definitely cooperate with the Mountain God!"
The village chief was very satisfied with the cooperation of the villagers.
He came to Goudan'er's side and said with a kind smile: "Goudan'er, you must not let anything slip in front of the Mountain God, lest you make the Mountain God unhappy. Do you understand?"
Gou'er nodded: "I understand, Grandpa Village Chief."
The ancestral hall has "confirmed" the identity of Sun Wukong.
On the other side, Sun Wukong also tactfully revealed to the village chief's youngest son that he had nowhere to go now and planned to make his home elsewhere.
The village chief didn't expect that he would drag Gou'er over to try to make friends with him.
But what he heard was Sun Wukong saying that he had nowhere to go and had to make his home anywhere.
Is this okay?
Fearing that the mountain god before him would run away to another place, the village chief quickly spoke:
"In that case, why don't you stay in our village temporarily? It will be a place to stay."
The village chief's youngest son opened his eyes wide and looked at his father with disbelief, who was smiling warmly.
