Chapter 444: No Hope of Becoming an Immortal
"Fellow Taoist, what do you think?"

Wang Pingan asked back.

Not to mention Lu Tu, even he was curious about why his uncle became the mountain god of Lion Ridge.

At that time, his grandmother said that she had a dream about his uncle. His uncle told his grandmother that he had become the mountain god of Lion Ridge. He was full of doubts.

After all, although there are people who practice cultivation in this world, they are not comparable to those in the previous life, so it does not seem difficult to become a god.

But according to his uncle, his uncle was deified by the underworld. His uncle was just an ordinary hunter from Zhangjia Village next to Lion Ridge. He did not have any amazing performance. How could he inexplicably become the mountain god of Lion Ridge?
At that time, he was full of doubts, wondering whether his grandmother was deceived or his uncle was deceived.

It was not until his uncle showed up with the Mountain God Order that he believed what his uncle said was true. However, his curiosity about this matter also reached its peak.

just.

After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what was going on, so he didn't bother to think about it anymore.

"I think……"

Thousands of distracting thoughts emerged in Lu Tu's mind.

As the commander of the Demon Suppression Division of Fengyin County, he knew that there were many mountain gods, land gods, and river gods in the areas under his jurisdiction, not to mention other places...

However, most of the gods who can become gods such as mountain gods, land gods, and river gods have their own advantages.

For example, if one has made great contributions to the Great Xia, done many good deeds, and is a well-known good man in the area, he will be deified by the underworld after his death and become a local god of mountains, land, river, etc.

Zhang Deben?
He didn't know about it before, and this was the first time he saw it today. If it weren't for Yu Die's distress signal, he wouldn't have known that there was a new mountain god in Lion Ridge.

You have to know that the mountain god of Lion Ridge has been vacant for hundreds of years since he was harmed by Tang Anzhi and the monsters. The underworld has turned a blind eye and doesn't care about Lion Ridge at all. How could they suddenly deify an ordinary hunter after a hundred years?

This was something he found particularly outrageous!
before.

There are traces of the deification of the underworld!

Lu Tu suddenly had an idea and thought of a name. He frowned and said, "Friend Li, this newly appointed mountain god of Lion Ridge, was he able to become the new mountain god of Lion Ridge as a hunter? Is it because of his nephew, Wang Ruhai, who passed the imperial examination and won the third place in the imperial examination?"

of course.

He knew that just like this, it would not be possible for Zhang Deben to become the mountain god of Lion Ridge.

Even though Lion Ridge is just an ordinary mountain, the mountain god of Lion Ridge can only be said to be a second-rate god, as small as a sesame seed, among the countless mountain gods.

But he is a mountain god after all, a profession that many people dream of but cannot achieve.

No matter how inconspicuous the Lion Ridge Mountain God is, there will always be many people who want to become one.

Not to mention that the position of the mountain god of Lion Ridge has been vacant for hundreds of years. During this period of time, many people have passed away, including scholars with academic titles or people who have done good deeds. If one of them is chosen to be the mountain god of Lion Ridge, some of the deceased may refuse, but most will agree. Although becoming the mountain god of Lion Ridge means that one cannot leave Lion Ridge, at least one can continue to stay in the world. As long as one's descendants are not cut off, one can bless the family's development. Not to mention that one can live for hundreds or even thousands of years.

If you perform well in your position and return to the underworld with complete merit, even if there is no way to arrange a position in the underworld and eat the royal food of the underworld, at least you can be reincarnated into a good family in the next life.

The Lion Ridge Mountain God is a huge benefit to most ordinary people and even those who practice cultivation. He doesn't believe that the mountain god has been vacant for hundreds of years and would fall on Zhang Deben for no reason.

Not to mention that Zhang Deben is just Wang Ruhai's uncle. Even if he is Wang Ruhai's father, he can't become the mountain god of Lion Ridge by relying on Wang Ruhai's third place in the imperial examination. Currently, Wang Ruhai is just a third place in the imperial examination in the human world. He is of no use to the underworld and it is not worth it for the people in the underworld to treat Wang Ruhai like this.

He suspected that Zhang Deben's ability to become the mountain god of Lion Ridge was related to the Prime Minister's Mansion behind Wang Ruhai.

There are many things in the human world that the underworld urgently needs, which is why the underworld arranges mountain gods, land gods, and river gods one after another in the human world...

In addition to rewarding them for the good deeds they did during their lifetime, they also want to use them to seek some benefits from the world.

From time to time, they even send representatives from the underworld to walk the human world!

Wang Ping'an himself was not the so-called 'spokesman for the underworld', so how could he possibly know why his uncle became the mountain god of Lion Ridge? He himself was curious about this matter, but when he saw Lu Tu say this, he still agreed:
"Zhang Deben's ability to become the mountain god of Lion Ridge is related to Wang Ruhai, but the real main reason is not Zhang Deben's!"

He didn't know how his uncle became the mountain god of Lion Ridge, but he believed that it had nothing to do with his father Chen Shimei. It was not that he was prejudiced against his father Chen Shimei, but that no matter how much potential his father Chen Shimei had, he was currently just a third place in the imperial examination.

Even if one does things worse than pigs and dogs, as long as he can climb up to the Prime Minister's residence and have the Prime Minister's care, it is only a matter of time before he will become successful in the future.

But the problem is that his father, Chen Shimei, has only just entered the officialdom. Even if he has powerful connections behind him, he still needs to slowly accumulate experience.

Not to mention that his father, Chen Shimei, was only the prime minister's son-in-law. Even if it was his son, if he wanted to get promoted and make money, he would have to start by accumulating experience.

Hell?

He had never dealt with them, but from some miscellaneous books, he knew clearly how terrifying the underworld was and what kind of existence they were. How could they give face to his father, Chen Shimei, who had not yet made a fortune, and let his uncle become the mountain god of Lion Ridge?

'I knew it!'

Lu Tu's eyes suddenly lit up. Hearing Wang Ping'an's words, how could he not understand that Zhang Deben became the mountain god of Lion Ridge because of the Prime Minister's Mansion behind Wang Ruhai? He was secretly shocked at the power of the Prime Minister's Mansion and said:
"Friend Li, I don't know if there is anything else you need to do in the human world. If you can use me, just tell me. I will do it for you even if it means going through fire and water!"

Wang Ping'an did not respond, but stood up and left arrogantly.

Lu Tu looked at Wang Ping'an's departing back, and instead of being angry, he said in disappointment, "What a pity!"

He not only wants to get in touch with Wang Ping'an, he also wants to get in touch with the underworld behind Wang Ping'an. He knows his own worth very well.

There is no hope of becoming an immortal!

When his life span was finally over, he didn't want to go to the underworld to reincarnate. He wanted to see if he could find a position in the underworld even if he became a ghost cultivator. Even if it was just a soldier, he would be willing to do that.
