Chapter 238: Qin Chu’s Border, Bear Monster Mountain God
Su Mu had a guess in his heart, but he wasn’t completely sure.
If the demons wanted to speak in the human tongue, they had to cultivate to the perfected Body Refinement Realm.
At that time, he would be able to control every muscle in his body and make any sound he wanted.
However, Su Mu’s cultivation level was not high enough, so he could not speak for the time being.
He couldn’t speak, and the woodcutter couldn’t understand the words he wrote.
Both sides were unable to communicate.
Helplessly, Su Mu could only shake his head and end his first interaction with the human race in this world.
But before he left, Su Mu used his spiritual energy to heal the woodcutter’s leg.
This woodcutter should be living nearby. Perhaps they would meet again in the future and form a good relationship.
“Thank you, Snake Demon… No, thank you, Mountain God!”
The recovery of his injuries made the woodcutter extremely happy!
He knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, crying tears of gratitude.
It was extremely dangerous in the mountains at night. A person with a broken leg would not be able to live until the next day.
If it wasn’t for Su Mu’s help, he would have met with a mishap!
Su Mu glanced at the woodcutter, feeling somewhat surprised by his actions.
However, Su Mu didn’t think too much about it. With a flash, he quickly disappeared from the woodcutter’s field of vision.
..
After parting ways with the woodcutter, Su Mu returned to the days where he had been cultivating.
Every day, he breathed in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and absorbed the essence of the sun and moon.
During this time, Su Mu met a few hunters and woodsmen.
When these people saw him, their first reaction was fear.
However, after seeing that Su Mu didn’t have any hostility, he let out a sigh of relief and his attitude turned respectful.
In a year, Su Mu had grown to fifteen meters long, his body as thick as a barrel.
Pieces of black snake scales seemed to be forged from fine iron, flashing with a threatening cold light!
Just by looking at its appearance, one could tell that it was a demon that should not be provoked.
At this time, Su Mu had already cultivated to the peak of body refining and could finally speak human language.
However, he felt that he had not grown to his limit. There was still a lot of room for improvement.
After completing his body refinement, Su Mu continued to cultivate while communicating with the nearby humans.
After some time, Su Mu finally understood the situation.
This was the Chu Country 5,000 years ago!
Before Great Qin unified the Nine Prefectures, dozens of Kingdoms had appeared, causing chaos.
The Chu Country was one of the most powerful countries and bordered the Qin Country.
Su Mu was on a mountain range between Qin Chu and the others.
The Qin people called this the Qin lineage.
The Chu people called this the Chu lineage.
No matter what it was called, the mountain range was still the same mountain range.
It was wide and long, and there were many demons. It was extremely dangerous!
It was because of this that Qin and Chu could be separated, and they didn’t have to worry about the neighboring countries attacking at any time.
..
“Lord Mountain God, Lord Mountain God. I came to see you again!”
On this day, Su Mu was taking a nap when he heard a familiar voice.
He looked up and saw a figure slowly approaching.
It was that woodcutter.
The gap of 5,000 years caused the Great Gan and Chu Country to be different in many aspects.
If the commoners of Da Qian encountered demons, they would definitely be terrified.
They could either ask the government to get rid of the demons or move their entire family.
However, the people of Chu were completely different.
When he met Su Mu, his first reaction was fear.
This was not a problem.
However, when they found out that Su Mu had no hostility, they actually started to worship him!
Especially after Su Mu’s strength and physique had grown, the villagers of the few villages at the foot of the mountain range all called him “Mountain God”.
There was a hint of flattery in his respect.
This made Su Mu very curious.
For example, the woodcutter whom Su Mu had saved the first time, would occasionally send over some good wine and dishes, obviously trying to please him.
Well, it happened again today.
“Shi Lei, why are you here again? Don’t you need to chop firewood today?”
Su Mu lazily crawled out and called out Woodcutter’s name before looking at his hand.
Two roast chickens and a pot of sake.
To a woodcutter like Shi Lei, this was already a huge investment!
“Hehe, Lord Mountain God saved my life, how can I not serve him well?”
“My family is poor and can’t afford too much fish and meat. Please don’t mind, Mountain God.”
As he spoke, Shi Lei bowed and respectfully raised his hands to serve the roast chicken and sake.
Although he was reborn as a demon in this life, Su Mu’s nature was still human.
The feeling of cultivation was wonderful, but it was somewhat uncomfortable to eat raw meat and drink blood every day.
Shi Lei would occasionally bring some food over to satisfy Su Mu’s craving.
“You’re so thoughtful.”
Su Mu flicked his tail and the roast chicken and wine flew towards his bloody mouth.
Just as he was about to swallow it, he saw Shi Lei’s throat moving from the corner of his eye, as if he was a little hungry.
Thus, before Su Mu swallowed it, he tore off a chicken drumstick and threw it to Shi Lei.
“Thank you, Mountain God!”
Seeing this chicken leg, Shi Lei beamed with joy.
It was not only because he could eat the drumstick, but also because this drumstick was a gift from the Mountain God!
There was an extraordinary meaning to this.
It represented intimacy!
Shi Lei was right.
After reincarnating for almost two years, Su Mu had not seen many living people.
This woodcutter often brought him some wine and meat. He could be considered the person he was most familiar with in this world.
..
The man and snake quickly finished eating.
After Shi Lei swallowed the crushed bone, he licked his lips and said to Su Mu:
“Lord Mountain God, our villages have already discussed that we will officially worship you on New Year’s Eve this year.”
“At that time, I will definitely prepare nine pigs, six sheep, and three oxen. There will be no lack of chickens, ducks, geese, and fish!”
Hearing this, Su Mu’s vertical pupils flashed with doubt.
“Your days must not be easy, right? Why did they have to go to such a great extent? Can you take it?”
