"More than a hundred years!" Zhao Li replied," Hey, why don't you come out and talk about flowers?”
"My spiritual power is about to be exhausted, so I can't show myself.”Hillghost replied. "Since ancient times, our Mountain Ghost Clan has lived in the mountains. At that time, people still believed in us and were willing to worship us. " However, with the development of human society, humans are becoming more and more distrustful of gods. They cut down trees, toppled temples, and built new homes. It has been a long time since anyone worshiped us.”
"Are you so weak now?" Zhao Li was also quite helpless." I wanted to ask you for a favor.”
"I still have the last bit of strength to help you.”Hillghost replied.
Li Hao was overjoyed and couldn't help but ask,""You guys are gods, so why don't humans worship you and have no spiritual power?”
"We obtain energy from the faith of humans. When they no longer worship us, they no longer believe in God.”Hillghost replied.
"Hillghost, what are your plans from now on?”Zhao Li asked.
"I will use the last of my strength to help you, but you need to do me a favor, and then I will leave.”Hillghost replied. His words were more or less disappointed and helpless, but more peaceful.
Everyone could tell that she had already accepted the truth.
"Tell me, what can I do for you? I will do my best!”This was the first time Zhao Li was so happy.
"That child just now is the only one who still believes in me. His father was once absent from work, but ten years ago, a mine accident happened.”Hillghost said. "However, my divine sense is connected to the mountain, so I didn't see his body still below. So many years have passed, but the child's father has never been found.”
"I understand. You want us to help you find him, right?”Zhao Li asked.
"That's right." As Hillghost spoke, the stone statue suddenly emitted a ray of light that shone on Li Hao and Zhao Li.
The two of them quivered and exchanged their souls.
However, the pleasant voice was gone. The mountain ghost turned into countless fireflies and was about to leave.
"Where would she go?" Li Hao asked.
"Another world." Zhao Li told him," Did you see that? A god died, and you destroyed your own god. You humans are courting death, do you know that? One by one, you are killing the gods who bless you.”
Li Hao looked up at the sky. He could still see the Mountain Ghost with his Spirit Assimilation Eye. Moreover, because of the additional Body Piercing Eye, Li Hao could now see the true body of the Mountain Ghost. It was a very beautiful girl with very petite facial features, but it seemed to have been carefully carved.
She was the god of the mountain, but she had no choice but to leave. Moreover, she was very reluctant. Although she was leaving, her eyes kept looking at the mountain.
"She doesn't want to leave." As Li Hao spoke, he quietly activated his Spirit-absorbing Eye.
Zhao Li, who was beside him, didn't notice. He just smiled and said,""How could she bear to? She loved the mountain. She was the god of the mountain, but now, no one could do anything about it.”
The fireflies in the sky disappeared. Zhao Li sighed and suddenly shouted,""Mountain Ghost! You shouldn't have left! That child said that he would come back! There are still people who are willing to worship you."
Li Hao looked at him and said,"She has already left and can't hear your voice."”
"Forget it, let's go."”
"Where can we find one?" Li Hao asked.
"I'm not sure yet, but since it's a mine disaster, I want to ask the nearest village. Someone should know.”Zhao Li replied.
Li Hao remembered the plot and said," Why don't we find a hotel to sleep in first? I still feel very tired. This will drag you down." Moreover, the child was still unconscious.”
Zhao Li turned around and glanced at him." Alright, but you better remember this. Next time, don't be so impulsive. What Underworld?" The Underworld King might let you off the first time, but if you do it more than once, she won't be so easy to talk to. This is also the rule of our place.”
"Alright." Li Hao was too lazy to argue with him. He picked up the child and left.
The two of them arrived at the nearest hotel. Just like on TV, the receptionist was a middle-aged fat woman wearing a thick military coat. Her attitude was not good, and she looked like she was here to rob her. Zhao Li almost slapped her.
The two of them booked a room. As soon as they went upstairs, Li Hao noticed the guy next to him. He also gestured for Zhao Li to take a look.
Zhao Li immediately pulled out his spear. How dare you appear in front of me! Are you courting death!"
Frightened by Zhao Li, he disappeared.
Li Hao was speechless. We're looking for a dead person. Maybe the wandering ghosts here know something?”
"That's true." Zhao Li put away his spear. "I'm used to it. Who cares? It's easy to find a wandering ghost. There are plenty of them at night. Let's go in first.”
Li Hao scolded him and followed him into the room. He placed the child on the bed. It was a three-person room, and each person had a bed. After letting the child sleep in the middle, Li Hao lay down on the bed inside. Suddenly, he felt extremely cold.
He raised his head and saw that the ghost from earlier had arrived!
"Are you here for him?" Li Hao asked.
"How did you know?" The ghost was dumbfounded.
Zhao Li suddenly jumped up from the bed and pointed his gun at him."Tell me, who are you? Why are you following us?"
"Don't…don't shoot, you're a ferryman, right? My name is Wang Jianshan. I just want to see my son." The ghost immediately begged for mercy.
"Your son?" Zhao Li was puzzled.
Wang Jianshan pointed at the kid on the bed."He is my son. Ten years ago, I died in the mine. I didn't expect to see my son again one day.”
"Zhao Li, why are you still holding a gun?”Li Hao asked.
Zhao Li put away his gun and sat with Li Hao to interrogate Wang Jianshan. However, Wang Jianshan's body was really cold. The two of them could not stand it when they got close. "Please go to the door, we really can't stand it."”
"That's right. It's not so cold down there.”Zhao Li rubbed his hands and said. "How did you die? Your whole body is frozen like a popsicle."
"I really died in a mine accident." Wang Jianshan still said the same thing.
"Alright!" Li Hao knew the whole story anyway, so he was too lazy to pester him because it was too cold. "Tell us, how do we get to your wife's house? We'll send the child back to her and find out where you are.”
"Sigh, alright." Wang Jianshan nodded. "Actually, I don't know what happened either. I remember that I died in the mine. When I woke up, I couldn't see the sky. It was dark and very cold!”
"I know, you can disappear!" Li Hao really couldn't take it anymore.
