The village beauty and me!

When Li Chunlan returned home from the neighboring courtyard, Zhao Liping had just come out of the shower room with a flushed face.

"What's wrong? Taking a shower before it's even dark?"

"Are you alright?" Li Chunlan put down what she was holding and asked with concern.

After living together for a few days, the two of them had developed a fairly harmonious relationship, even like best friends.

Feeling Li Chunlan's genuine care, Zhao Liping inexplicably felt a sense of guilt.

He said in a low voice, "It's nothing, I just feel a little hot."

"Well, I've been bothering you guys for so long, I'm thinking of moving back home in a bit."

Li Chunlan frowned. "Why?"

"Did Chen Huan bully you?"

Zhao Liping felt increasingly guilty and kept shaking her head, "No, he treats me very well."

"It's just that it's a little inappropriate for me to live here."

Li Chunlan snorted and shouted directly at Chen Huan inside the house, "Chen Huan, come out here."

  

"Is it you who wants to get rid of Doctor Zhao?"

"I told you to comfort them properly, how did you do it?"

Chen Huan came out of the house looking very uneasy, especially when he met Zhao Liping's eyes, he seemed a little guilty.

As if possessed, I blurted out, "I did a pretty good job comforting her, didn't I, Dr. Zhao?"

Zhao Liping nodded, blushing. "Yes, they comforted me for quite a while, and I'm quite satisfied."

"Then why did they leave?"

"I'm used to having someone like this at home. You're always out, and I have no one to keep me company. What are you thinking?" Li Chunlan questioned her repeatedly, her expression sincere.

Chen glanced at Zhao Liping and said, "Why don't you continue living here? Just keep my sister-in-law company."

"If you have any questions about medical matters, feel free to ask me."

"But you have to help with the work."

The following sentence was clearly meant to save face for Zhao Liping.

Zhao Liping was grateful and took Li Chunlan's hand, saying, "Okay, then I'll shamelessly stay here."

Li Chunlan smiled and said, "That's right. What do you want to eat tonight? Let's cook together."

"If Chen Huan ever offends you in the future, please forgive him for my sake and don't hold it against him..."

The two of them went inside, chatting and laughing.

Chen Huan was left standing there, bewildered.

However, he didn't have time to think about it. He quickly went back into the house, closed the door, and swiftly sat cross-legged to enter a state of formal cultivation.

I had a heated argument with Zhao Liping just now, and then I was surprised to find that Dr. Zhao was also in an undeveloped state.

While Chen Huan was overjoyed at finding another treasure, he also faced a distressing situation.

That is because this technique is too special; when combined with a virgin's body, it directly brings about a significant increase in cultivation level.

Therefore, the vital energy in the body began to stagnate again.

Although the meridians had been reinforced and widened before, so this time the pain wouldn't be so bad that I would faint, if the flow of true energy isn't cleared up quickly, it will accumulate and become more and more blocked over time.

It will be a disaster sooner or later.

Only by exerting all our strength in cultivation to guide the dissipation of internal energy can we alleviate the situation somewhat.

But no matter how much I practice, I always feel that the progress is too slow.

Perhaps because I have officially entered the first level and my overall strength has improved, the speed at which I absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth and convert it into true energy has decreased significantly in this environment.

"By the way, the riverside is near the mountains, where there is plenty of spiritual energy, so cultivation will be faster." Chen Huan recalled his previous experience and immediately made up his mind.

It's almost evening now. Summer days are long and it gets dark late. Let's see, there are still a few hours left.

Chen Huan simply brought his fishing gear and drove his tricycle straight to the riverbank.

As soon as I arrived here, I immediately felt that it was very different from home.

Actively activating the technique significantly increased its effectiveness.

Chen Huan scraped off a small piece of the golden elixir and threw it into the water in front of him.

Now that I have officially contracted the river section, I can fish however I want without having to go to distant shallows to fish.

Therefore, the fragments of the golden pill that were thrown in quickly attracted a large number of river fish and shrimp.

Chen Huan actively circulated his cultivation technique, absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to help clear blockages in his meridians, while also enjoying fishing to his heart's content.

When it comes to fishing, Chen Huan really did benefit from Old Zhao's family to some extent.

For the past two years, the Zhao family has been guarding this section of the river, preventing anyone from fishing or even angling.

Therefore, the resources inside are exceptionally abundant.

More than 300 jin of blackfish have already been caught, yet they are still densely packed together on the river surface.

Chen Huan estimated that he could make a couple more times, and earning a total of fifty or sixty thousand yuan wouldn't be a problem.

But now that I've contracted this river, I can't just sit around and do nothing.

Catching snakehead fish is a quick way to make money, which is an advantage, but the disadvantage is that it cannot be sustained in the long run.

Chen Huan thought that he should make the most of this unique aquatic resource and be as efficient as possible.

"If only we could achieve sustainable fishing," Chen Huan mused.

There are more than just blackfish in this river.

There are many kinds of carp, crucian carp, grass carp, silver carp, and bighead carp.

In addition, there are crayfish, river crabs, loach, and other such a wide variety.

"These things can't be as expensive as blackfish, but if they are properly bred, their value will definitely increase."

"Wouldn't that boost production and sustainability soon?" Chen Huan had a preliminary plan.

He had discovered long ago that all the creatures inside were particularly interested in the Golden Elixir.

Just a little bit is enough to attract all the fish, shrimp, and crabs within a radius of tens of meters.

Furthermore, it seems that anything that brings even the slightest benefit will improve its quality.

Chen Huan casually scooped up a few crayfish.

He had seen crayfish in restaurants before, and they weren't cheap, although most of them weren't very big.

Furthermore, the only edible part of a crayfish is the small area between its belly and tail.

These crayfish in front of me are a whole size bigger than ordinary crayfish, look better, and are more plentiful.

Chen Huan reached out and broke it open, discovering that not only was the meat of good quality, but there was also more meat, making it incredibly plump and juicy.

"Let's catch some crayfish to take home and have some tonight."

Chen Huan quickly completed the fishing operation.

Then he sat intently by the river, facing the mountains, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to open his meridians and disperse his true energy.

Before we knew it, the sun had set, and everything around us was pitch black.

Chen Huan got up and stretched, feeling extremely happy both mentally and physically.

In particular, the blockage of the meridians in the body has been relieved by about half.

"At least we didn't waste any time."

Seeing that it was getting late, Chen Huan decided to hurry home.

Just as he was about to turn around, he casually glanced into the woods.

Then they discovered that there was a faint light flickering somewhere deep in the forest.
