Chapter 138 Those two can't be taught unless they are beaten three or five times a day
Three years later.

Pucheng, Shanghe County, Shitoucheng, which were guarded by the Cheng family army, as well as more than a dozen newly incorporated county towns, have all undergone earth-shaking changes.

The biggest change was in the Stone City that was once conquered by Cao Ying.

Because there is a large amount of unowned land here, Cheng Long turned it into an industrial town.

In the past three years, Cheng Long went abroad to purchase various weapons production lines, all of which were located in the Stone City Industrial Park.

In addition, there is a super large enterprise that produces engines, tanks, military vehicles and off-road motorcycles.

The industrial park that Cheng Long spent a huge amount of money to build has more than 70,000 workers alone, plus their wives, children and grandchildren. The once sparsely populated Stone City is now overcrowded and has to be expanded.

Of course, it is undoubtedly wishful thinking to build such a large industrial park with only a dozen counties. In order to plant the seeds of a strong country, Cheng Long secretly did many things that pleased the people and collected a lot of money from them.

Since ancient times, money has moved people's hearts. Having money can naturally recruit talents from all walks of life, develop heavy industry, and build technical colleges to cultivate relevant talents.

Just look, in just three years, the Shade College built in Pucheng has provided a large number of highly professional talents for the industrial park.

The Cheng family army also grew stronger in the process, playing an important role in both the north and the south...

……

Early morning hours.

Pucheng, Chengfu.

When Cheng Long woke up, Teacher Bai, who had spent a wonderful night with him the previous night, had already returned to the Soul Nurturing Jade, leaving only Jingjing, who had shed her youthfulness and become mature and attractive, lying beside him.

"Hmm~"

Cheng Long patted Jingjing, causing the beauty to moan softly, but she did not wake up. Instead, she changed her position out of habit and curled up in the man's arms.

"This girl..."

Cheng Long raised the corner of his mouth slightly and revealed a smile.

If something didn't happen later, I would really be reluctant to leave such a lovely Jingjing.

However, before getting out of bed, he still habitually glanced at the character panel.

[Host: Cheng Long]

[Realm: Late Foundation Building Stage (22.3%)]

[Kung Fu: Killing Technique (getting better)]

[Curse: Seven-star Soul Nailing Technique, Sleeping Technique, Substitute Technique, Corpse Refining Technique, Ghost Exorcism Technique, Puppet Technique, Soul Devouring Technique, Water Arrow Technique (Blood Arrow Technique), Paper Cutting Technique...]

[Magic Weapons: Bloodthirsty Pearl, Demonic Knife, Soul-Nourishing Jade, Mist Mountain Divine Seal]

[Demon servants: Mengna, Ah Zhui, Scar Red, Liu Piaopiao, Bai Ling (spirit), Jing Jing]

[Demon Servant: Zhang Yi]

"I killed a few villains sent by Captain Yang last night, but the progress bar only increased by 0.15. Killing people is not enough to meet my daily needs. Killing evil spirits, zombies, and monsters will increase my progress faster. Otherwise, if I want to break through to the peak of the foundation building stage, I have to kill people. If I keep killing like this, where in the world will there be so many villains for me to kill?"

Looking at the progress bar that was growing slower and slower, Cheng Long looked melancholy. In the past three years, he had been busy keeping the fire alive and had accidentally neglected his cultivation.

Now that the South has become stable, it is time to put aside military duties and go out for a trip.

Zhang Yi, Mao Jun, Zhao Huaiyi, and Duan Xin'an all have the ability to stand on their own, and have all undergone three enhancements, gaining physical fitness comparable to Captain America.

Zhang Yi himself is a martial artist. With the physical fitness of Captain America, he has reached the highest level directly. With his talent in martial arts, it is not impossible for him to cultivate Dan Jin or even Gang Jin in the future.

Moreover, Lao Zhang is very smart and can handle many things beautifully when he is assigned to do so.

In comparison, Mao Jun and the other two are a little inferior. Either their martial arts talent is not as good as theirs, or their ability to get things done is far inferior, but their overall abilities are not bad.

The Shitoucheng Industrial Park has always been guarded by Zhao Huaiyi and his troops, and there has never been any problem.

A quarter of an hour later.

Cheng Long came to Yang Mansion near the mansion alone.

That was the former defense corps.

Pucheng has the Cheng family army to maintain order, so there is no need for a defense corps. However, Yang Kenan, who is quite capable, and his members of the defense corps cannot sit idle.

So, under the suggestion of Mrs. Yang, the defense corps joined the Cheng family army. Yang Kenan was the battalion commander when he first joined the corps and has now been promoted to regiment commander.

"Aaron~~"

Zhou Susu, who was busy at the stove, saw Cheng Long walking into the backyard familiarly. She immediately wiped the water off her hands with her apron and walked up to him, saying, "You are a busy man. How come you have time to come to my place today?"

"Don't I miss you?"

Cheng Long opened his arms and gave Zhou Susu a big bear hug. If he still had some thoughts three years ago, now all that was left was the relationship between a sister and a brother.

A hug like this can be given at any time, even on the street.

But only there.

Both of them know how to keep their distance, so they get along very well and have a clear conscience, and naturally don't care about other people's opinions.

A few minutes later.

Zhou Susu reluctantly let go of Cheng Long and looked up and asked, "Are you leaving?"

Cheng Long nodded, "Well, I'm going to travel for a while. I'm not sure how long it will be, but it won't be less than half a year..."

"Aren't you afraid of being away for too long? Will the Cheng family army change their surname to Zhang?"

"Zhang Yi can betray anyone but me, and..." At this point, Cheng Long changed the subject: "I originally intended to leave the Cheng Family Army to him, because I am not interested in this. The purpose of developing the Cheng Family Army over the past few years is just to end this chaotic situation and let the people of the world live a good life."

"Along, since this is your plan, I will persuade Kenan to assist Zhang Yi. But...will you come back in the future?" "Of course I will come back. After all, my beloved sister-in-law is in Pucheng."

"Hate!"

Zhou Susu punched Cheng Long's chest and said with a red face, "You are making fun of me again. I have told you several times to call me sister from now on, not sister-in-law."

"Okay, sister-in-law."

Cheng Long was like a rolling knife, and he would not change his mind no matter what was said.

Because he liked to see Zhou Susu getting angry and frustrated.

After teasing Zhou Susu for a while, Cheng Long went to the military camp to arrange his affairs after traveling.

He has a lot to explain.

Therefore, he informed Zhang Yi, Mao Jun and others in advance and asked them to wait together in the military camp, because Cheng Long was not sure whether he would still be in the mood to take care of affairs after he returned.

Just be a hands-off boss.

"My Lord, are you telling the truth?"

Upon learning of Cheng Long's intention, Zhang Yi widened his eyes in disbelief. What the lord had just told them was too unbelievable. Who could have imagined that the future of Central Plains would be so disastrous.

"What I said may not be correct, but the probability is very high. You just need to do as I say and assist those who will emerge in the future with all your heart. Zhongyuan will definitely have a good development prospect."

"Yes, my lord."

Although Zhang Yi, Mao Jun and others were full of doubts, they did not dare to question their lord's orders at all. Cheng Long was a god in their minds, and every word he said was good advice.

They also firmly believe that time will prove everything.

My lord, you have a far-sighted vision, and what you say must be right.

After talking about business.

Zhang Yi and his men came up to Cheng Long and said worriedly, "My Lord, you need to be alone when you travel. Why don't you choose one of us to take with you? Then you can have someone to run errands for you and be your subordinate."

"How can I defeat demons with dozens or even hundreds of elite soldiers around me? You just need to help me stabilize the rear, and don't worry about anything else."

"My Lord, maybe you don't need help, but Miss Jingjing must have a maid to take care of her!"

"Jingjing and I traveled on foot for seven or eight years with her master, Master Ikkyu. Do you think she needs a maid to take care of her?"

"..."

Zhang Yi and his group were completely speechless.

There is no need to worry about safety. No one in the world can harm the lord. Even if there is, they are gods in heaven or ghosts in the underworld.

After arranging everything.

That afternoon, Cheng Long rode an off-road motorcycle, carrying Jingjing, whose temperament had changed greatly, and headed westward to Wangyue Mountain, 400 miles away.

The mountain road is still difficult to travel on, and the motorcycle tracks are getting deeper and deeper.

Halfway through the ride, Cheng Long simply became too lazy to ride anymore, so he drove the bike to the stream, washed off the dirt, stuffed the stuff into the container, and then he carried Jingjing and sped away. Before it got dark, the two arrived at their destination.

"Master~~"

Seeing the two small courtyards that had not changed at all, Jingjing quickly jumped out of the man's arms and ran towards her master's house with excitement.

"Jingjing, you are willing to come back."

Upon hearing the news, Master Ikkyu walked out of the house and saw his female disciple whom he had not seen for several years. His old face was full of smiles.

"Master, you are old."

Jingjing hugged her master excitedly, and then she noticed that her master looked much older than he was three years ago.

The wrinkles on his face became deeper and more numerous.

"When you are old and your cultivation is not good enough, it is normal for you to grow old and weak."

Speaking of Taoism, Master Ikkyu was very envious of Simu's senior brother Lin Fengjiao. A year ago, Uncle Jiu made great progress in his cultivation, breaking through from the peak of Qi training to the Spirit Transformation Realm, and instantly became a dozen years younger.

Uncle Jiu used to have the same hair as him, with a head full of gray hair. Now his hair is completely black and his wrinkles are gone. He is so envious.

"Master Ikkyu, why don't you see Taoist Simu?"

Cheng Long used his spiritual sense to sense around, and not only did he not see Taoist Simu, but even Jia Le was not there, so he was quite curious.

"He received a summons from Principal Lin last night and rushed to Renjia Town overnight."

"What happened?" Cheng Long asked curiously.

"Something happened. It's not a big deal, but it's not a small deal either. Wasn't last night the Ghost Festival? Not only did Master Lin's two disciples go to the theater to watch a play with ghosts, they also..."

"Knock down the ghost messenger and release the ghosts, right?"

Without waiting for Master Ikkyu to finish speaking, Cheng Long smiled and continued the conversation.

"That's right. These two bastards have been following Master Lin for so many years, but they still don't know what to do. If they become my disciples, I will write their names upside down if they don't get beaten three or five times a day."

Master Ikkyu had never seen such useless disciples. They were older than Jiale, but each one was more playful than the other.

Not sensible at all.

"What about Jiale?"

"He's driving corpses to save money for a wife. He's not young anymore, it's time for him to get married."
