Chapter 204 Xiahou Swordsman is here to cause trouble again!
After making sure that the Taoist had given up the idea of getting a piece of the pie, Cheng Long took out his magic knife and cut the thousand-year-old peach tree that had been struck by lightning from top to bottom, taking out its essence and discarding the dross.
Not all parts of a peach tree that has been struck by lightning can be used.
Most of the branches are ordinary.
Moreover, this thousand-year-old peach tree is too thick. A large area around it has not changed much. Only the core area of a dozen centimeters is the real thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood.
About a quarter of an hour.
Cheng Long took out a thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood that was thirteen centimeters in diameter and nine meters long. The moment the wood was taken out, precious light flowed and electric arcs flashed from time to time.
In order to prevent the energy in the lightning-struck wood from being lost, he put it into the storage compartment after taking it out.
At the same time, the Taoist in tattered robes came forward with a smile and said, "Daoyou, do you want the scraps you cut out?"
"No, just take whatever you want."
In fact, Cheng Long could still produce a lot of materials from the scraps he discarded, but these materials were several times inferior to the core materials he took.
If someone wants something that he doesn't like, he will definitely be happy to do them a favor.
Leaving all the scraps to the Taoist in tattered clothes, Cheng Long immediately disappeared without a trace.
"So fast!"
"Shrinking the earth into an inch? Or a world away? Or maybe the art of escaping the earth?"
The Taoist was horrified. As far as he knew, only the magical skills of shrinking the ground into an inch and escaping underground could have such terrifying speeds.
……
three days later.
Yunlang Town, Mo family.
"Worship heaven and earth!"
"Two thanks to the high hall!"
"Couple greetings!"
"The ceremony is completed and sent to the bridal chamber!"
The front door of the Mo Mansion was decorated with lights and a group of curious children were lying at the door, looking around carefully.
Inside the house, all the guests were smiling and sending their blessings to the son-in-law of the Mo family.
Three years ago, Cheng Long came back with sweet potatoes, corn and peppers, and joined forces with the Mo family to promote these three crops, but he also played a trick on others.
In Yunlang Town, his fame once overshadowed other influential figures such as the mayor, the eighty-year-old scholar, and Yan Chixia.
"Aaron, congratulations."
The bearded man, who received the news from somewhere and rushed back to Yunlang Town in time, gave Cheng Long his sincere blessings. Unfortunately, Shier and Cui Hongjian were not there.
The former has already set out and is traveling around to recruit more soldiers.
The latter passed the examination for a scholar, and then for a juren, and later moved to Yunlang Town.
According to gossip, Cui Hongjian has now become the son-in-law of a corrupt official. He studies the books of sages at home every day, preparing to pass the imperial examination and become a tribute student in one go.
With a fourth-rank official as his father-in-law, Cui Hongjian's chances of passing the exam are very high.
After all, people recruited him as a son-in-law because they valued his talent. With a little effort, he could enter the official career.
Juren was the threshold for entering officialdom, but the positions that Juren could hold were all minor ones, such as county magistrate, teacher, or assistant official like the chief official.
If a tribute student becomes an official, he can serve as a county magistrate, which is a much higher starting point than a juren.
But Cheng Long is not optimistic about Cui Hongjian's career.
Because the world is not stable, although he promoted sweet potatoes, in fact, the effect they could have in three years was very limited.
If we want every household to be able to eat it, it will take at least 20 years.
There are many things that Cheng Long cannot actually take care of.
It is said that in some areas suffering from famine and harvest failure, horrific scenes of people eating their own children have occurred. These are the news brought back by Yan Chixia, and they are very credible.
"Big Beard, I haven't seen you for two years. Your magic power has improved a lot!"
"You are the same. Even after my cultivation has improved, I still cannot see through you."
"Drink this wedding wine first, and I'll chat with you later."
"Good good..."
According to the rules, Cheng Long needs to toast to all the guests present.
During the process, he also saw Xiaoshuang, who was already a mother, and Xiaoshuang's husband Ma Wenjie. The guy still thought he had married Mochou and had no idea that his wife had been replaced by a maid.
In order to cover up the lie, Miss Zhen, Mo Chou, married Cheng Long as Mo Jinfeng's adopted daughter, Joey.
The Mo family was very cooperative. When Xiao Shuang was brought back by Ma Wenjie, everyone called her Miss. Mo Jinfeng and his wife also treated her as their own daughter...
That night, in the wedding room, candlelight illuminated the faces of the newlyweds, exuding a warm and happy atmosphere.
"Husband, I want some tea."
Looking at the man in front of her who was lifting her veil, Mochou's heart was beating fast, even though they were used to hugging and even kissing each other.
Like the close contact with Cheng Long.
But when the day of the wedding really arrived, Mochou was still extremely excited, yet a little nervous.
"Okay, I'll go pour it for you..."
Cheng Long took out a bottle of wine, opened it, and poured two glasses. The meaning was self-evident. After drinking the wedding wine, everything that follows will come naturally.
"Brother Long, I'll undress you."
After drinking the wine, Mochou stretched out his hands very proactively.
A very pragmatic girl, she didn't say any sweet words.
"Zhu Er, you suddenly become so proactive. I'm a little uncomfortable with it."
Cheng Long was confused.
He wanted to eat the forbidden fruit before, but Mochou would never agree. He thought that if he wanted to fulfill his wish tonight, he would have to coax her, such as looking at her, rubbing her... or something like that.
I didn't expect Mochou would take the initiative to undress for me!
"Brother Long, I didn't let you succeed before because I remembered what my parents said. Now that you and I are married, I must fulfill my wife's obligations. What's more, Xiaoshuang is already a mother of two children. If I don't take the initiative, how can I face her in the future?"
Cheng Long smiled wickedly and said, "Then I'll leave it to you tonight."
Mo Chou: “…”
She is just being more proactive. She is not an experienced person, so how could she understand these things?
……
The next morning.
As the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone into the bridal chamber, Mo Chou, who was seen naked by the man at a glance, shrank into the quilt shyly, her pretty face flushed as she did not dare to look at the other man.
"You ate it all last night, why are you still covering it up?" Cheng Long patted Mochou's hips, then walked to the window and used his internal energy to absorb the first ray of purple air between heaven and earth.
Mo Chou opened her eyes wide and looked at him for a while, then said with a red face: "Brother Long, I have given you everything, you must be good to me, and don't ever think of abandoning me, or I will not let you go even if I become a ghost."
"Haha, look at what you're saying. I'm not Duan Zhengchun, who gets bored easily and wants to be a bridegroom every night. I abandon a woman after getting her. I've been treating you well, so how could I possibly abandon you?"
Cheng Long took a break from his busy schedule and looked back at Mo Chou, his face full of doting.
It is undeniable that he is a somewhat philanthropic person who likes to take care of beautiful young ladies, but he will not abandon anyone who needs his care.
Mo Chou's worries were completely unnecessary.
About an hour later.
Cheng Long brought Mochou and two bottles of white wine to the even more dilapidated Wumenju.
This is how houses are. Without people around, they become particularly prone to decay and fall into disrepair. When Shier was still alive, Wumenju still looked like a home, but now it's like a dilapidated temple in the wilderness.
"Hahahaha... I finally got you here."
Yan Chixia flipped over, jumped down from the roof, and landed directly in front of the two people.
"Here, drink sparingly, I don't have much left."
Cheng Long traveled to the world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio and met two drunkards who consumed a lot of liquor, Yan Chixia and Taoist Xuan Gui, each of them was more drunk than the other.
Especially the Taoist Xuan Gui, who ascended to heaven and became an immortal three years ago. Later, he secretly came down to earth two or three times just to drink.
"Then I'll drink it later..."
Yan Chixia covered the wine bottle in a very mercenary manner and put it carefully in his arms.
"Keng!"
Just as Yan Chixia was about to sit down and tell Cheng Long about his experiences over the past two years, a long roar of sword intent sounded in the sky above Wumenju, and a deep and cold sword energy covered it, instantly smashing the stone door frame standing at the entrance to pieces.
Such a familiar scene!
Such a familiar smell!
Cheng Long was stunned, then turned his head to look.
as predicted.
Xiahou Swordsman is here to cause trouble again!
"Hahaha... Yan Chixia, today I finally... Hey, Master Cheng, why are you here too..." The arrogant Xiahou swordsman stopped abruptly when he found Cheng Long sitting opposite Yan Chixia.
I actually met this plague god again!
I am no match for him!
What to do? What to do? What to do……
