Chapter 202 Help each other
Ma Zhan played with the bronze jug that could hold all the water in the world's rivers and seas, and said to himself, "These two good brothers are truly lucky. They were able to obtain such a heaven-defying treasure."
After a busy day, Zheng Xiaoqiao returned to the mansion. He should have personally arranged for Bai Kui and Hei Nie, and they should be working overtime now.
Ma Zhan ordered his servants to decorate the mansion in the same way he prepared a surprise for his girlfriend in his previous life.
After Zheng Xiaoqiao returned home, from entering the door, to entering the living room, and then to entering the bedroom, he witnessed three extremely clumsy surprise performances in succession.
In the bedroom, she suppressed her smile and looked at her husband who was about to enter middle age and was secretly happy to see that he had made such painstaking preparations.
Looking at Zheng Xiaoqiao's expression, Ma Zhan knew that he had been exposed.
You can't blame him for his poor arrangement, you can only blame Zheng Xiaoqiao for being too smart.
Ma Zhan presented the bronze cup with animal patterns with both hands, and said with a slightly depressed mood:
"Here, this is for you."
Zheng Xiaoqiao took the bronze goblet and put it on the table. She wrapped her arms around Ma Zhan's neck and kissed the drooping corners of his mouth with her red lips.
Her red lips touched Ma Zhan's ear, "You are the best gift God has given me."
The warm breath blew into Ma Zhan's ears. Ma Zhan picked up Zheng Xiaoqiao, who was becoming more and more plump, and felt the undulating figure in the red tent.
"You too, my best gift."
Zheng Xiaoqiao is becoming more and more mature and charming, and every inch of her body is in line with Ma Zhan's aesthetic taste.
Zheng Xiaoqiao clasped her hands tightly on Ma Zhan's back, as if trying to merge the two bodies together.
When the moon reached its zenith, the two began to talk about business.
Zheng Xiaoqiao rested her head on Ma Zhan's arm and said softly:
"Actually, I have a gift for you too."
Ma Zhan asked expectantly, "What gift?"
"Wang Zhengben had a junior fellow apprentice who was a master of military strategy. Wang Zhengben dug out his kneecap. We at Yehu have already contacted him."
It seems that with our promotion, the time has been advanced a lot, and it is time to take action against the State of Wei.
"Thank you for your concern, Madam... By the way, how are the arrangements for the two brothers from the Tiger Tribe made?"
Zheng Xiaoqiao said, "I plan to train those two for a while, and then arrange for them to follow my husband and become a pair of brave warriors."
"Madam, you still understand me..."
However, the word "training" is a bit ambiguous.
——Dou Zhengxing had diarrhea for more than 20 days in the scorched earth layer.
His lips were pale and his body was weak as he moved step by step into the largest palace.
He had been dehydrated for a long time, and he was able to get here only by willpower.
Just as he was looking for the entrance to the next level, a man with several arrows in his body and covered in blood suddenly appeared.
"Who is this demon..."
"Who is this demon..."
Two weak but powerful voices sounded at the same time.
The man who was shot by several arrows and covered in blood was Wang Zhengben.
He was on the march to Maling when he was suddenly ambushed. Fortunately, he was called back in time.
Inside the hall, the view was dim, and the two men now looked no different from ghosts.
But the two of them could recognize each other's voices.
Dou Zhengxing asked tentatively: "Brother Zhengben, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Zhengben was almost unable to stand. "Zhengxing, save me, save me."
The Battle of Maling between Qi and Wei was almost single-handedly controlled by Zheng Xiaoqiao. It is not an exaggeration to say that Ma Zhan was monitoring the battle in real time.
Ma Zhan immediately approached Duke Xiao of Qin and said, "Qin and Wei are two countries that cannot coexist. Either Wei will annex Qin, or Qin will annex Wei.
If we send troops at this time, Wei will definitely be unable to resist.
Reclaiming the land west of the Yellow River means reclaiming the natural barrier, and turning eastward we can control the other states."
Duke Xiao of Qin immediately listened to Ma Zhan's advice and sent Ma Zhan to lead the troops to attack the State of Wei.
At this time, the Qin warriors were unstoppable and, led by Ma Zhan, advanced rapidly.
This battle left the State of Wei with a broken heart and King Hui of Wei was forced to cede the land west of the Yellow River to the State of Qin.
It took more than ten years of Ma Zhan to transform a backward country that was looked down upon by everyone into a powerful northwestern country that other countries had to unite to resist.
Duke Xiao of Qin generously gave Gongsun Yang treasures, beauties, and fiefdoms.
He was sincerely grateful to this reformer who led Qin to become a powerful country.
Perhaps only Ma Zhan knew in his heart that this was not his own achievement, but the ability of Gongsun Yang.
As Duke Xiao of Qin grew older, Ma Zhan began to prepare to leave Qin.
Zheng Xiaoqiao refined the water in the bronze jug with animal patterns into his own natal river.
At the bottom of the river lay all the resources that she and Ma Zhan had plundered in this secret realm.
There were more than twenty iron coffins floating on the river. They were the corpses of the elves that Ma Zhan could find.
Duke Xiao of Qin died, and Gongsun Yang of Qin and his wife also disappeared on that day.
Ma Zhan took off Si Yongcai's jade pendant and put it into the storage bag.
Zheng Xiaoqiao also became a gentle Jiangnan woman.
As they left Qin territory, both of them returned to the scorched earth layer, Fang Sheng in the palace.
In the dim environment, the two looked at each other. More than 20 years of mutual support made them extremely familiar with each other.
But it was over, a fact that neither of them wanted to accept.
"Change, change your clothes."
Ma Zhan spoke with difficulty, and every word he uttered was extremely laborious.
Zheng Xiaoqiao's eyes were red with emotion. "Hmm~"
Zheng Xiaoqiao took back the mask and Ma Zhan tied the jade pendant, and the two were silent for a long time.
In the air, there stood the shadow of an old man, looking at the two of them quietly.
Finally, Zheng Xiaoqiao couldn't help but ask the shadow:
"Is everything between us real?"
The old man nodded, "Yes."
Zheng Xiaoqiao confirmed again: "Why, I haven't been pregnant for more than 20 years."
The old man said, "I have exhausted all my resources to maintain the operation of that world. I no longer have the ability to allow you to give birth to offspring in it."
Zheng Xiaoqiao nodded.
"Thank you."
Ma Zhan and Zheng Xiaoqiao both felt relieved.
Ma Zhan asked tentatively:
"Shang Jun?"
The old man nodded and then said:
"You're good, you did better than me."
Ma Zhan shook his head and said, "What I did was what you did back then. The good part was also done by Xiao Qiao."
Shang Jun smiled with satisfaction and said:
"I have been waiting here for thousands of years, and finally I have waited for you."
Shang Jun made a move with his hand, and Fang Sheng under the feet of the three people instantly became smaller and floated in front of Ma Zhan.
"Square liters, sixteen and one-fifth of an inch.
The left side is engraved with the inscription of the 18th year of Duke Xiaogong, and the bottom is engraved with the edict of the 26th year of Emperor Qin Shihuang.
A square liter can measure everything in the world."
Immediately afterwards, Shang Jun Fangsheng slipped into Ma Zhan's left hand and disappeared.
Ma Zhan felt as if his left palm was on fire, but in front of Zheng Xiaoqiao, he still endured it and remained calm to maintain his image.
Shang Jun looked at Ma Zhan with a smile, then took out a bamboo slip and continued:
"If we put your bamboo slips together, we'll have the complete Book of Lord Shang."
