Chapter 468: The Hero Who Planted Trees By The Road (2/4)
Ma Bian pushed open the door and took a deep breath of the earthy air. He felt a sense of relief from the inside to the outside and then from the outside to the inside, swirling around and filling his intestines.
"When Jiang Taigong came out of the mountain, he was already seventy-two years old. I have not yet stood up this year. My future achievements will definitely be higher than Jiang Taigong!"
Immediately, Ma Bian began to perform the first system task.
Ma Bian refused the system task, but after listening to the immortal's explanation, he realized that there are good and bad systems, just like the difference between immortality and enlightenment.
The previous Ali Jack Horse system was created by the Qing court. It was unkind and unkind, gathering goods to amass wealth, and tricking people into squandering money, losing their fortune, and living on nothing.
If he succeeds, countless people will have their hands and feet chopped off in the future, and the world will be no different from purgatory.
Ma Bian had suffered hardships, endured sins, been hungry, and been cold before. He had eaten Guanyin soil and knew what it felt like to have a swollen belly as big as a ball, which was worse than death.
He shuddered at the thought of everyone living on dirt.
"Fortunately, the Immortal helped me resolve the disaster, otherwise all the karmic consequences would have fallen on me! I must repay the Immortal for his enlightenment."
Thinking of this, Ma Bian quickened his pace.
"Aunt Zhang, are you choosing your dishes so early?"
"Aunt Li, are you going out?"
The women who were choosing vegetables, washing rice, washing children, and chatting at the door were all stunned.
Although they were over half a century old and their children were already cooking soy sauce, they still couldn't help but take a second look when they saw the juicy cabbage.
What a handsome young man.
Where did this husband come from? I wonder if he is married?
Hey, why did he greet us? Isn't he a stranger passing by?
If they are acquaintances, they will definitely be impressed. After all, such a handsome boy will never be forgotten after just one look.
Ma Bian saw that he had successfully attracted the attention of the neighbors, so he bowed his hands to everyone.
"I'm A-Bian."
Ah Bian? Which Ah Bian?
Although there is only one A-Bian here, no one connects the two people at all.
Ma Bian had no choice but to solemnly introduce himself.
The onlookers exclaimed, "You are actually the ugly bookmaker."
Ahem...
Someone gave a subtle reminder, and the speaker immediately realized his gaffe and quickly retreated with his face covered with his sleeves.
Ma Bian didn't take it seriously.
If it were before, he would have argued with the other party about his beautiful appearance and interesting soul, but now, he doesn't even bother.
ugly?
Whoever says he is ugly again can only mean that person is blind!
"Mr. Ma, I wonder what you are doing?"
Ma Bian immediately explained to everyone: "I have been lucky enough to meet an immortal in the past few days. The immortal used his supreme magic power to cleanse my muscles and cut my marrow, and I was reborn."
Everyone was immediately curious, "Which kind of immortal?"
"Do you know the great god of Santanhaihui? It's Nezha who uses lotus flowers to make his body. Yes, it's this immortal method, but my body is much more advanced than Nezha!"
Someone asked: "Can you use some magic to see?"
"Let me try some magic skills? I'm a scholar. I don't hear anything outside the window. I only focus on reading the books of sages. I don't have time to delve into those trivial skills."
After some bragging, Ma Bian heard a "ding" in his mind: Your reputation has been known to 10 neighbors. Congratulations on completing the novice mission [Rise to Fame].
After the task was completed, Ma Bian immediately gave up the idea of bragging. After all, he was a scholar, so how could he be looked down upon by a group of idiots?
After returning home, Ma Bian immediately closed the door. Although the neighbors were curious, they had long been in awe of the scholar. At most, they just watched from the outside of the fence and did not dare to step into the yard.
At the same time, Ma Bian thought silently in his heart: Get it!
Immediately, a newbie gift package appeared on the table.
"Ding! Congratulations on getting [Red Dragon Dali Pill]. After using it, you can strengthen your body, increase your physical strength, and reach the peak of Mingjin (1 star).
[System evaluation: This is the elixir used by the immortal family’s handymen to increase their strength. If taken for a long time, mortals can also have the power to move mountains and rivers]
The world of the Qing Empire was between low martial arts and zero martial arts. It was impossible to fly to the sky and escape from the earth, but it was still possible to climb over the walls. Monks who could chant sutras and Taoist priests who could draw talismans also had some skills.
Ma Bian had also seen with his own eyes the masters who smashed boulders on their chests and used bare-handed swords. A few days ago, he even saw the methods of killing monsters with wooden swords and frying imps.
It is impossible not to be envious, but Ma Bian, who has no strength in his hands, cannot endure hardship, and has congenital defects in his muscles and bones, so even if he endures hardship, it will be of no use, so this envy can only be buried deep in his heart.
Seeing Chilong Daliwan, Ma Bian's heart was pounding wildly, and without even a second's hesitation, he picked it up and stuffed it into his mouth.
Gudeng!
Immediately, a burning feeling came from his belly and quickly spread to his limbs.
On the planet Terra, Xi Tong secretly said: Although the power contained in the red dragon meat is not as powerful as the crystal stone, it is still the best medicine for a scholar who has no power to restrain a chicken.
As for the muscles and bones of other dragons, they also have various effects and are made into various elixirs for Ma Bian to use.
Qing Empire, Ma Bian opened his eyes in surprise.
He waved his fist and immediately felt a surge of power.
He is no longer the weak and frail scholar he used to be. With this kind of strength, he is more than enough to carry a big bag at the dock.
Bah, only a devil can carry a big bag!
I am a man determined to become Jiang Taigong!
"Ding! Congratulations on taking the first step to success!"
"Ding! Golden scales are just like things in a pond. A small village cannot support you. Please go to the nearest town and wait for the storm to rise."
After hearing the system prompts, Ma Bian quickly packed his things and prepared to set off.
"Listen, the golden scales are just a thing in the pond, waiting for the wind and clouds to rise. This system can also compose poems, which is 10,000 times better than Jack Ma who can only read 1, 2, 3, 4!"
When Ma Bian walked out carrying a big baggage and two wooden boxes, the neighbors outside had not yet dispersed.
"Oh my god, Master Ma is actually so strong? Isn't he someone who can be knocked down by a gust of wind?"
"After just one cup of tea, Mr. Ma seems to have changed. Not only has he become more handsome, but he has also become stronger."
Someone enthusiastically stepped forward to help carry the box, but as soon as he took it, he almost fell down with him.
That man was also an old farmer, but his strength was not as strong as that of a scholar, and his face turned red with embarrassment.
Ma Bian immediately smiled and said: "Didn't I tell you just now that the gods helped me reborn and gave me a thousand pounds of strength? Have you replied to the letter now?"
Believe it, believe it, and whoever doesn’t believe it can try carrying that box for himself.
Immediately, people began to wonder, what is in this box that is so heavy? Could it be all money?
Although the guess was wrong, it was pretty close. It contained the wealth that Ma Bian had saved from teaching over the years, mostly copper coins, and some broken silver, weighing at least a hundred kilograms.
In the past, Ma Bian would never have dared to go out with so much money. It was one thing to be unable to raise it, but it was another thing to be unable to keep it.
But now Ma Bianyi is so bold that he doesn't pay attention to the heroes who plant trees on the roadside.
