Rural Mad Doctor

Chapter 450 I'm Watching a Black Hole

Cao Erdan said to Xuanyu and Xuanyin:

"How are you two supposed to live here?"

The original owner of this temple couldn't even get enough to eat.

Let's just move to the mountain behind our Hetang Village.

I'll build you a small temple, at least then there will be people and incense offerings."

Before Xuan Yin could utter a sound, the lively Xuan Yu immediately clapped and cheered:

"That's great! Being closer to Brother Cao's house means I can play with him more often. It's fantastic!"

Xuanyin clasped his hands together:

"Then we must thank Benefactor Cao for his great kindness and virtue. Buddha will surely bless you!"

Victoria Song and Ding Wenlin looked at each other.

I couldn't help but admire him. Cao Erdan was indeed amazing. He could befriend all sorts of people, men and women, young and old.

Even monks were completely subservient to him.

They all felt that the two girls were getting close to him, so the day when they would return to secular life was not far off.

As everyone was chatting, they suddenly realized that Big Black was gone.

Cao Erdan followed the footprints on the ground and saw that Big Black's footprints led to the back gate of the temple.

The group followed the footprints.

Big Black had already reached the valley behind the temple.

Everyone followed closely behind.

After rounding the hilltop, the scenery before us was breathtaking.

A grove of bright red peach trees came into view.

Xuan Yin and Xuan Yu exclaimed in surprise, "Heavens! We didn't know there were so many fruits so close to here!"

Mountain peach trees usually bear small, sour fruit, but the peaches in this valley are large and red.

Big Black used his strong body to ram the peach tree, causing it to shake and many ripe peaches to fall.

Then the big black guy picked up peaches from the ground and ate them, one after another, eating them with great relish.

It seems that animals do indeed have a much stronger sense of perception than humans.

Cao Erdan reached out and picked one too, took a bite, and the juice splashed everywhere. It was as sweet as honey, absolutely a delicacy.

This peach variety is special. If it were transplanted to a sunny slope and planted in large quantities, and then tended with the Earth Vitality Spell, it would definitely grow even better.

We're sure to get a good price for it then!

There are over a hundred peach trees here, their bright red blossoms looking incredibly tempting.

Xuan Yin and Xuan Yu happily jumped up the tree to pick peaches and threw them down for Ding Wenlin and Song Qian to catch.

The two older sisters pulled up their monk robes to hold the peaches, completely forgetting that they weren't wearing anything underneath.

My clothes were soaked through, both inside and out, so I took them off and left them to dry in the temple.

When this monk's robe was lifted up, his private parts were completely exposed!

Cao Erdan didn't remind him, and was just enjoying the beautiful legs.

Suddenly, his gaze passed through those fair and tender thighs and he spotted a different kind of mountain peach tree.

There was a special aura about that tree, which immediately made him feel that it was different from others!

His gaze was fixed on a century-old peach tree.

This tree is the most magnificent and spectacular in the entire forest, with lush and verdant branches and leaves.

What attracted Cao Erdan was not its imposing size, but a dark hole in a side branch of the tree.

Cao Erdan could tell that those were marks left by a lightning strike!

Just then, Song Qian noticed that Cao Erdan was staring at her and Ding Wenlin in a daze.

Suddenly, I remembered that beneath the monk's robe I was wearing... there was nothing underneath.

Oh my! Her two beautiful legs are completely exposed.

He quickly lowered his robe, his brow furrowed, and demanded in a stern voice:

"Cao Erdan, what are you looking at!"

“I see there’s a black hole.”

"What nonsense are you spouting, kid? You've gone too far!"

Victoria Song blushed deeply, extremely embarrassed by his words.

At this moment, Ding Wenlin heard this and looked over.

They also thought Cao Erdan was talking nonsense.

They stopped accepting peaches and quickly wrapped their monk robes around their thighs.

However, Cao Erdan walked straight past the two of them.

We arrived at the peach tree.

He gently stroked the charred tree hole with his fingers, sighing deeply.

"This is a very rare and genuine lightning-struck wood!"

Peach wood itself is believed to have the power to ward off evil spirits.

Having survived the baptism of thunder and fire, it still thrives—truly a rare treasure!

Victoria Song then realized what was going on.

It turns out that the black hole Cao Erdan mentioned was on the tree, not on his own body!

I realized I had misunderstood him, which made me even more embarrassed.

Lightning-struck wood refers to the wood that survives a lightning strike on a tree.

Wood such as jujube, peach, willow, and poplar that has been struck by lightning can all be called lightning-struck wood.

Only when a tree survives a lightning strike can the part struck by the lightning be called lightning-struck wood.

Conversely, if a tree is killed by lightning, the part that was struck cannot be classified as such.

The reason why lightning-struck wood can ward off evil spirits is mainly due to the energy effect of lightning.

If a tree dies after being struck by lightning, it indicates that the tree failed to retain the energy from the lightning.

Its ability to ward off evil spirits relies solely on the properties of the wood itself, rather than on lightning strikes.

Lightning-struck wood is created by the power of lightning in heaven and earth, and is revered by ghosts, monsters and demons.

It is the most powerful talisman against evil.

The power of lightning lingers on the lightning-struck wood, posing a great threat to evil spirits.

Therefore, it is suitable as a treasure to ward off evil spirits and protect a home.

Once lightning strikes a tree, ghosts will be frightened and scatter.

Even if the shaman tries his best to summon them, they will never possess him again.

In the Taoist talisman system, lightning-struck wood has a natural effect of suppressing evil spirits and warding off evil.

It is especially used to create various magical artifacts.

Items such as lightning-struck wood seals and swords possess magical power far exceeding that of ordinary peach wood products.

With a wave of his hand, Cao Erdan revealed the blade in his right hand, snapping off the thick branch that had been pierced by lightning.

After some trimming and cleaning, he put the branches directly into his storage ring.

Ding Wenlin and the others were astonished to see Cao Erdan suddenly produce a knife and then disappear in the blink of an eye.

Upon closer inspection, Cao Erdan was found to be unarmed.

The branch with the black hole disappeared instantly.

She didn't know that the storage ring on Cao Erdan's hand was a spatial treasure, and thought that Cao Erdan had used some kind of magic!

The speed of his hand left the two beauties speechless.

After enjoying a hearty meal of peaches, everyone returned to the temple.

Ding Wenlin and Song Qian's clothes were also dried, and the three of them were about to return to the village.

He bid farewell to his two junior masters, Xuan Yin and Xuan Yu.

Xuan Yin and Xuan Yu saw them off all the way to the foot of the mountain, waving goodbye repeatedly.

Victoria Song looked back as she rode, teasing Cao Erdan:

"These two little girls seem particularly attached to you!"

Cao Erdan was smug:

"Of course, I've always been popular, and you've been very good to me too!"

Victoria Song rolled her eyes at him and suppressed her smile.

They were afraid that Cao Erdan would speak recklessly in front of Ding Wenlin and say something inappropriate.

After all, Ding Wenlin is his boss.

Upon returning to the village, Ding Wenlin said to Cao Erdan:

"We'll take our leave now; I've learned about your capabilities."

I believe you are a young person with potential.

Work hard in the future, and we will do our best to support your career.

Victoria Song added, "If you encounter any problems you can't solve, remember to come to my village and I'll do my best to help you!"

Cao Erdan nodded in thanks:

"Thank you for your support, beautiful ladies. I will do my best to make our village the most awesome village in our province, and even the whole country..."

Victoria Song frowned and reminded him:

"Comrade Erdan, please watch your words!"

Ding Wenlin showed no sign of blame, and said with a smile:

"Your words may be rough, but the reasoning is sound. I wish you success!"

After saying goodbye to beauties Ding Wenlin and Song Qian, another beauty arrived.

Qin Lu has arrived.
