Chapter 1277: Sincere Heart, Effective

"I don't know either." Zhan Peng licked his cracked lips and glanced fearfully at the stone tablet. "Just now, it felt like my soul trembled a bit. It's terrifying."
"Is this exaggeration?" Lei Zi couldn't help but speak.
"Zhan Peng, are you having hallucinations? You're too timid." Bai Ling'er also said.
Some of the staff members didn't believe it. They approached with their legs raised, ready to touch the stone tablet, but they were stopped by the villagers. "What are you doing?!"
The village chief's face also looked bad, and he said with a heavy voice, "If you continue like this, our village will not welcome you! Please leave on your own!"
Everyone was slightly stunned by the chief and villagers' reaction, they looked at each other and stopped talking.
"Village chief, this is a misunderstanding, we promise we won't do this again," the director hurriedly apologized with a smile.
"Chongzi, take them to the place for recording the show first, don't disturb the mountain god," the village chief said, squinting his eyes slightly.
"Village Chief, this can't go on. We need to confirm that Haizi is okay before we can proceed." Lei Zi immediately spoke up.
"Village Chief, we can't delay any longer. The situation is urgent, saving Haizi is the most important thing." The director also said.
"Once we are up the mountain, do not speak out of turn and do not stray from the designated path. If you leave this trail, fate will decide your life and death, and you can't blame us!" Before the village chief could say anything, Da Zhuang already spoke up. Translated content: "Once we are up the mountain, do not speak out of turn and do not stray from the designated path. If you leave this trail, fate will decide your life and death, and you can't blame us!" Before the village chief could say anything, Da Zhuang already spoke up.
Haozi's injuries cannot be delayed any longer.
After saying these words, his expression suddenly became serious, and his eyes showed an indescribable solemnity. Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, he directly knelt on both knees and respectfully kowtowed three times towards the King Mountain.
Afterwards, the village chief and many villagers did the same, with solemn and sacred expressions on their faces. They knelt down, and knocked their heads on the Great King Mountain three times.
"O mighty mountain god, today Haizi was bitten by a black viper, his life hangs by a thread. We have no choice but to disturb your peaceful meditation. Please save Haizi's life, our Qingcao Village is eternally grateful." Dazhuang finished speaking, touched his forehead to the ground, and paused for a full five seconds before standing up.
This scene made Bai Ling'er and the others extremely anxious, and the live stream chat exploded.
【Damn it! Are these people stupid? They're beyond help now!】
【It's already this late and they're not even trying to save people. Instead, they're worshiping the mountain god here. Isn't this nonsense?】
【Feudal superstition really harms people! It's likely that brother Haizi has passed away.】
【So pitiful, so lamentable!】
【The production team must come with me to expose the true face of the mountain god. This is indirect murder!】 Translation:
……
Not to mention the live broadcast room, Bai Ling'er and the director were also full of anxiety but dared not urge further.
The villagers' attitude just now was already very obvious - they have truly been completely bewitched by the mountain god.
Finally, Da Zhuang stood up and took Haozi ge from the villagers' hands. The expression on his face was indescribably solemn as he embarked on the journey up the mountain.
However, in this environment, they did not walk fast. Instead, every step seemed ceremonial, as if they didn't care about Haozi's safety at all.
"At their speed, by the time they reach the mountain, Haizi would have long been dead." Bai Ling'er couldn't help but mutter softly, while also curiously looking around, causing the hairs all over her body to stand on end.
She always felt that there were a pair of invisible eyes watching her in the dense forest, making her very uneasy.
It must be her imagination, surely influenced by these superstitious villagers.
Bai Ling'er comforted herself and dared not look around anymore.
Lei Zi approached a villager and asked in a low voice, "Is the Mountain God up on the mountain? With this speed, Haozi definitely won't hold on for long. Why don't we climb the mountain as soon as possible?"
The villagers smiled with reverence, "Sincerity brings fruition!"
“……”
Those gathered could clearly feel the villagers' awe towards the mountain deity, akin to embarking on a pilgrimage, as each step exhibited devoutness.
However, in their eyes, this is numbness, ignorance!
The members of the production team were all speechless, looking at each other and shaking their heads in helplessness.
【Sincere heart brings results? I don't know why, but hearing this phrase suddenly makes me want to laugh.】
[Too funny, right? This village must be popularized, it's so backward.]
[At least our country, Longteng, is one of the top countries in Tianlan Star. Hard to imagine such a place still exists.] Translated:
This is the consequences of not studying, education is so important.

……
I'm very curious how this mountain god is able to deceive so many people.
Just at this moment, a figure walked down from the mountain.
Everyone instantly became alert, could this be the mountain god?
As the figure approached, all the people finally saw his appearance. With a childlike face and a height of less than 1.5 meters, it was clear that he was only a four or five-year-old child.
The most crucial thing is that, on the child's shoulders, there is a burden, with buckets hanging on both sides of it, filled with water.
The staff of the program and the viewers in the live broadcast were shocked.
Even an adult man would find it very difficult to carry these two buckets of water, and even if they could manage it, their shoulder bones and skin would still be hurt. What's more, this child obviously has to carry the water uphill, which is simply unimaginable.

Child labor!
Child abuse!
These are the first thoughts of everyone.
"Xiao Hu!"
The people from the production team had mixed feelings, but the villagers were delighted to see this child and immediately went up to greet him. Please note that in English, the "@" symbol is not typically used in the same way as in Chinese writing. It is mostly used for social media tags or usernames.
"Xiao Hu, how did you come down the mountain?" asked the village chief with a concerned expression.
"Village chief, Da Zhuang brother." Xiao Hu looked at everyone and smiled sweetly, then said, "The mountain god said that our Qingcao Village needed something and let me come down the mountain to help you."
"As expected, the mountain god indeed possesses vast abilities. I knew that sincere prayers would be answered, and the mountain god has indeed heard us." The villagers were immediately filled with gratitude, each one ecstatic.
"Village chief, I am responsible for fetching water in the mountains, and I happened to be assigned here as I am close by," Little Tiger spoke up, then turned to Haozi. "You all can set Brother Haozi down now, and leave the rest to me." Please let me know if there's anything else I can assist you with!
"Okay, fetching water is great! Remember to help the Mountain God diligently, you mustn't slack off, understand?" The village chief spoke, feeling extremely pleased.
His reaction stunned everyone in the production team. So it seems that this child actually voluntarily came to the mountain to help the Mountain God with tasks?
They couldn't help but think of the goals of those children in school: helping the mountain god with farming, helping the mountain god with chopping wood, helping the mountain god with weeding. The entire village is freaking abnormal!
It's inhumane to make children do these things!
Is the village teaching children martial arts just to work as labor for the mountain god? It's utter ignorance!
Then, they looked at Haozi, whose entire leg had completely rotted, and were speechless. This child has also gone mad. How can we save him?
