Chapter 157 Swallowing a Magic Pill
June 6th is Grain in Ear.
The streets and alleys of Pucheng are decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and the air is filled with a festive atmosphere.
All the prominent figures in the city put on new clothes and rushed to Cheng's house with gifts.
Today is the wedding day of Marshal Cheng and his two wives. Early in the morning, all the restaurants in the city started to get busy, preparing buffets for the people of the city.
Today, and in the next two days, anyone who enters Pucheng can enjoy the buffet.
Cheng Long is not short of money.
In the past three years, in order to ensure the smooth operation of the military industrial park in Stone City, he has visited the vaults of many places.
He left his footprints in major cities such as the romantic capital of France, the foggy city of England, and the metropolis of America.
However, the one who suffered the greatest loss was Fuso.
Until now, Cheng Long still has a ton of spare gold stored in his storage barn. Just taking out a little money can feed the people of several cities.
What's more, the arsenal in Stone City has already turned losses into profits, and the weapons it produces are in short supply.
"The Southern Commander of the National Protection Army, the Commander of the Second Army, Marshal Hong has arrived!"
"The commander of the First Army of the National Protection Army, Marshal Li has arrived!"
"...Mr. Sun is here!"
As the doorman's calls of names continued to ring out, the gentry and celebrities who had arrived at the Cheng Mansion early finally had a very clear understanding of Marshal Cheng's reputation and prestige.
These people who came from afar are more noble than each other.
However, the name the doorman called out next made everyone drop their jaws.
“… Mr. Mochizuki-san has arrived!”
"Mr. Wangyue Mountain? How come the mountain god has come to congratulate us?"
The Mountain Goddess of Wangyue Mountain is famous. Although many people may not have seen her, many people have heard of her.
Because the monsters in Wangyue Mountain are different from those in other places. They rarely come down the mountain to do evil. If one or two incidents happen occasionally, they are either newborn monsters who are ignorant, or monsters that have fled here and are causing trouble secretly.
In the minds of many people, mountain gods and land gods have always been high above, like mysterious dragons that can only be seen from head to tail.
Although the big shots who came to congratulate before were also beyond the reach of ordinary people, they could always look at them from afar and they were not that mysterious.
Therefore, upon hearing the news that Lady Tiger Goddess had come to congratulate them, hundreds of guests inside and outside the Cheng Mansion all cast curious glances at them.
quickly!
Tang Sai'er, the Lord of Wangyue Mountain, came into view with two strong men in golden armor, walking in a dignified manner.
She was dressed in palace dress, pure and noble, and every movement she made was poetic and picturesque, revealing endless elegance and dignity.
Compared to more than 20 days ago, her aura has become more calm, restrained, and even more unfathomable.
"How many Mountain God Seals has Sister Shanjun integrated? Why is it becoming increasingly difficult to see through her?" Cheng Long felt an unprecedented threat from Tang Sai'er.
"Is this the Lady Shanjun?"
Everyone was looking at Tang Sai'er infatuatedly.
It's not that the other person is so stunningly beautiful, but the temperament of the Queen of Mountain Jun is so noble that people dare not desecrate her.
"Mrs. Tiger, please come in..."
Cheng Long led Zhang Yi, Zuo Qing, Zhou Susu, Yang Kenan and others to greet them.
Today's occasion is quite formal, so it's not appropriate to be glib.
It was the first time that Tang Sai'er saw him so steady, and she couldn't help but look at him twice more: "General Cheng, I have prepared a small gift for you, please accept it."
Bang!
The two warriors in golden armor took off the burdens on their shoulders.
Then, at Tang Sai'er's instruction, they opened the treasure chests one by one.
The first treasure chest was filled with brilliant gold, silver and jewels.
The second treasure chest has a plant that looks like a little man with branches and leaves on its head standing upright inside.
From its jade-white color and baby-like appearance, it is not difficult to see that this is a magical medicine that has been growing for a very long time.
The third box is interesting.
What was inside was actually a wooden heart.
"This is a thousand-year-old tree heart, which contains a few drops of life essence..." Tang Sai'er did not explain the effects of the thousand-year-old tree heart, but from her slightly reluctant expression, one could tell something.
The effects of curing diseases, saving lives, and strengthening the body are indispensable. Trees are tranquil, and they may also have the effect of calming the mind and concentrating the spirit.
"Thank you, Lady Shanjun!"
Cheng Long bowed in thanks.
Tang Sai'er smiled, turned around and walked into the main hall. With a wave of her hand, two golden-armored warriors shining with golden light instantly turned into two paper figures, floated into her palm and disappeared.
"Why is it a paper man?"
Cheng Long was stunned.
Just now he thought that the golden-armored warrior behind Tang Sai'er was a ghost servant that the other party had found from somewhere, but he didn't expect that it was actually a paper man that looked like the real thing.
“… Taoist Master Simu, Taoist Master Lin, and Taoist Master Qianhe are here!”
"Boss Qian from Renjia Town is here!"
With Uncle Jiu, Simu, Qianhe, and some wealthy businessmen from Renjia Town arriving at the Cheng Mansion, the wedding ceremony officially began.
Once you bow to heaven and earth, there is nothing much to say.
However, when they bowed to their parents for the second time, Cheng Long, Ren Tingting and Jingjing bowed to Wangyue Mountain Lord.
Originally, the person sitting on the high hall should have been Master Ikkyu, but when he saw Tang Sai'er being invited to the high hall by Cheng Long, he didn't have the courage to follow.
He was just an old monk with little experience. How could he be qualified to sit with the Lady Tiger and accept the worship of Marshal Cheng?
a few days later.
Peace returned to Pucheng.
Cheng Long, Ren Tingting and Jingjing, who have just got married, start their honeymoon trip.
Driving an off-road vehicle, running around the world.
……
Time flies.
Three years passed in a flash.
On this day, in an underground ice cave in the North Sea.
Cheng Long was immersed in boring training, with a thick black fog covering his whole body.
In this sunlightless ice cave, only a faint red light shone from his dantian, which was a sign that the magic pill was taking shape.
As time passed, Cheng Long's breath gradually became deep and powerful, like an ancient behemoth, and every breath he took could attract the surrounding spiritual energy.
Ren Tingting and Jingjing, wrapped in thick cotton coats, huddled together for warmth while nervously watching their men.
As time passed, the faint light in the black fog gradually became brighter, like a rising sun, dispelling the black fog that shrouded Cheng Long.
It was a mysterious power, warm and powerful, as if it contained endless vitality.
Finally, when the light completely stabilized, a dazzling magic pill slowly rotated in Cheng Long's dantian, emitting a dazzling red light, as if it was a real star, illuminating the entire ice cave.
"Congratulations to my husband on reaching a new level of cultivation. From now on, you will be invincible in the world."
"You girl..."
Hearing Jingjing's congratulations, Cheng Long rubbed her head with a smile, "Although I have cultivated the golden elixir, this level of cultivation can only make me a leader in this declining world. If I offend the righteous gods in the mountains and rivers, such as your sister Shanjun, I think she can suppress me with one hand."
In the past three years, Cheng Long was not the only one who became stronger. Tang Sai'er's growth was not slower than his, and was even faster than his.
Because, he kills lives to cultivate his magic, and he needs to spend time searching for demons, ghosts, or evil people with blood on their hands.
Tang Sai'er only needs to rush to the wild mountains and snatch the divine seals from the wild mountain kings to enhance her magic power and expand her divine authority.
Although after her strength grew to a certain level, some genuine mountain gods who heard the news also joined this silent struggle for divine power.
However, Tang Sai'er, who seized the initiative, had already expanded her territory several times.
With Wangyue Mountain as the center, all the mountains and rivers in Heze within a radius of 800 miles are under her control. There are also more than a dozen scattered unowned mountain ranges outside the territory, which were forcibly incorporated into the Wangyue Mountains.
How can Cheng Long compare with her?
However, the path Tang Sai'er is taking will make her stronger quickly, but it will also bring endless troubles.
The more you are bound to the world, the harder it is to escape.
After all, the zombie world is in a period of great change, with new technologies constantly emerging, and the old theocratic system will sooner or later be eliminated.
Cheng Long, who had no idea when he wanted to leave this world, planned to go back to Moon Viewing Mountain to meet Tang Sai'er and see if she was willing to leave this quagmire...
