Global Desertification: I am accumulating merit in another world

Shen Lishu slowly withdrew his gaze, and at this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and the owner of the inn walked in with a smile on his face, holding a plate of steaming food in his hands.

"Sir, this is the food you ordered. Please enjoy!" said the boss as he carefully placed the plate on the table.

Shen Lishu nodded slightly and said softly, "Just put it here." Then he turned around and slowly sat down.

Shen Lishu looked at the sumptuous meal in front of him, and his stomach couldn't help but make a rumbling sound. He picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of fragrant meat, put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully. The delicious taste spread in his mouth instantly, and he couldn't help but show a satisfied expression.

Soon, Shen Lishu finished all the food in a flash. He leaned back in his chair, patted his bloated stomach, and burped.

After finishing his meal, Shen Lishu felt a little sleepy. He stood up and prepared to have a good night's rest to gather his energy to meet the unknown challenges tomorrow.

The next morning, the sun shone through the thin clouds and fell on the streets and alleys of Jiangzhou City. Shen Lishu strolled leisurely in this bustling city with curiosity in his heart.

As the capital of Nanning State, Jiangzhou City is grand and magnificent.

There were many shops on both sides of the street, and pedestrians were everywhere. The sounds of shouting and hawking were heard one after another, making it very lively. Shen Lishu walked and stopped, and his eyes were often attracted by the novel things on the street.

However, as he walked, he discovered something quite strange - every household here actually worshipped the statue of the national teacher!

The Imperial Master was a kind-looking Taoist nun, wearing a white Taoist robe, holding a whisk, with a friendly face, looking like an immortal. Compared with the ferocious appearance seen last night, she was completely different.

This phenomenon made Shen Lishu wonder, "Who exactly is this national teacher? Why is he so respected?"

With a lot of questions in his mind, he continued to travel through the city, trying to find the answers...

What was even more strange was that he discovered that from time to time a puff of smoke would emerge from the heads of these people and drift towards the northeast corner of the palace.

Who lives there?

Shen Lishu asked the innkeeper, "Why do you have a statue of a Taoist nun in your inn?"

The boss looked at her in surprise and asked, "Are you from outside the city?"

Shen Lishu nodded embarrassedly, "What's wrong with outsiders?"

"We in Nanning all know that the national teacher is the reincarnation of a goddess. She has brought us many blessings. If we don't worship her, who should we worship?"

"The reincarnation of the goddess?" Shen Lishu frowned. What reincarnation of the goddess? He was just an invader!

"Could it be the goddess who has been passed down since ancient times?"

Indeed, according to legend, in the distant past, this vast continent was once just a muddy, miasma-filled swamp.

At that time, humans living in this world were considered the most fragile and insignificant existence. At that time, the entire continent was dominated by a group of extremely large animals.

Time flies, and suddenly one day, a dazzling light streaked across the sky, like a meteor falling to the earth.

Then, a goddess of extraordinary beauty and otherworldly temperament descended from the sky. She possessed extremely powerful strength and could easily move mountains and fill up the sea.

Thanks to her efforts, the originally barren swamps gradually turned into vast fertile lands, and humans finally had a place to live and settle down.

However, the goddess did not stop there. She knew that if the huge animals that threatened human survival were not completely eliminated, people would still not be able to live a peaceful and stable life.

So, she resolutely embarked on the journey of conquering these giant beasts. After a series of thrilling battles, the goddess finally succeeded in subduing them all and endowed humans with a variety of vital survival skills.

These include how to control fire and make it a source of warmth and light; how to build sturdy and durable houses to withstand wind and rain; and how to make clothing so that humans can withstand severe cold and heat and maintain physical comfort and health.

Because of the goddess, humans can gradually become the masters of this continent."

As the boss spoke, he slowly turned and walked towards the room.

After a while, he came out of the room, holding a delicate wooden box carefully in his hands. The box looked very old, and was engraved with mysterious and exquisite patterns.

When the boss gently placed the box on the table, everyone couldn't help but stretch their necks to get a glimpse of the mystery inside.

The boss slowly opened the lid of the box, and a stale smell immediately blew in. In the box, two yellowed ancient paintings lay quietly.

The boss pointed to the first ancient painting and said, "This is the portrait of the goddess passed down from my ancestors. Look, the goddess in this painting has a graceful figure and a beautiful face, as if she will walk out of the painting at any time.

It is said that this goddess possesses magical powers and can protect our family from generation to generation with peace and prosperity."

Then, he pointed to the second ancient painting and introduced it solemnly, “This one depicts the powerful creature that dominated everything on the continent back then.

It is huge, exuding a chilling aura, and its majesty is intimidating. These two ancient paintings are heirlooms of my family, carrying the memories and stories of countless ancestors. "

The first painting he unfolded showed a vast expanse of mountains and swamps, with a huge creature with thick limbs and a long neck in the middle. Its mouth was open, revealing sharp teeth. There was no doubt that these teeth could break a person in half.

Shen Lishu was so angry that he thought, isn't this the way of heaven? It's also a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

It turns out that the world was originally controlled by Tyrannosaurus Rex, so why did the dinosaurs become extinct later?

How did it become the way of heaven?

Shen Lishu's mind was full of questions and she was very confused. Now that Tiandao was dead, she didn't even have anyone to ask.

The boss then unfolded the second painting. A female protagonist with long flowing hair stood in the middle of the painting. Next to her was a huge dinosaur, and around her stood a group of women with different styles.

Shen Lishu's eyes were fixed on the hand of the person in the middle. On that hand was a crystal bracelet. The style of the bracelet was very unique and unforgettable.

How could she forget?

When they were most desperate, hugging each other and watching the desert getting closer and closer, this hand appeared out of thin air and just pointed lightly.

The sandstorm that was plaguing the world just stopped, and she could easily send all of them to different worlds.

Is the owner of this hand their master?

Shen Lishu didn't know. She was very confused and had too many questions in her mind, but no one could give her answers.

She now wishes she could shake the Heavenly Dao out of its grave. You didn't tell me anything and it's gone just like that. What should I do?

"This is the goddess who saved mankind. These two paintings were passed down from my ancestors, and I have been carefully preserving them."

Shen Lishu came back to his senses, "Then how can you be sure that person is the reincarnation of the goddess?"

The boss was surprised, but also took it for granted, "The national teacher can fly into the sky and hide underground, and can also spread blessings when he breaks through, allowing people who have been seriously ill for many years to get out of bed and walk. Naturally, she must be the reincarnation of a goddess!

Only a goddess can do this!"

After saying this, he looked at Shen Lishu with suspicion, "Who are you? Why don't you trust the goddess?"

Shen Lishu was laughing in his heart, and said with a dry smile, "I didn't disbelieve her. I just came to Jiangzhou City because I was too curious and admired her too much."

After the boss packed up the paintings, he went to burn three incense sticks to the stone statue of Chen Xin before continuing to work. Shen Lishu clearly saw that after the boss burned the incense, a golden light emerged from his head and flew towards the palace.

What's not to understand? It must be Chen Xin who is causing trouble!

Shen Lishu knew very well what the golden light was. It was the power of faith!

Chen Xin is not only stealing the luck of this world, but also stealing the power of faith. She wants to eat this world up!

Even if Shen Lishu knew, what would it matter? She couldn't control Jiangzhou now.

After wandering around for a few more days, news came from Phoenix City that the envoys agreed to cooperate and asked Shen Lishu to go back to take charge of the situation.

This was a big deal, so Shen Lishu didn't dare to delay and had to go back quickly.
