Chapter 138: Chapter 137 Brothers in Arms, Talk about Loyalty! mmp! [Seventh Update]_1

Qin Shou immediately felt displeased, but now that the man was the dupe, it wouldn’t be fair to stop him from chasing after girls. And even if that guy was letting his imagination run wild, it wasn’t Qin Shou’s place to interfere...

But, not intervening also irked Qin Shou... What to do?

Continue to fleece him, of course!

Thus, not only did Qin Shou feel no remorse for his fleecing ways, but he became even more determined to keep at it.

A quarter of an hour later...

The sky remained clear; no waters from the Milky Way descended, not even a drop of rain.

The Rabbit looked up at Tianpeng, whose old face turned red with embarrassment as he awkwardly said, "Um... my subordinates are dragging their feet too much. I’ll settle the score with them later. Don’t worry, just wait a bit longer, the water from the Milky Way will surely fall!"

Qin Shou didn’t say a word, just looked up at the sky, and Tianpeng, now unsettled, did the same.

And so, in the Moon Palace, a man dressed in black and edged with gold and a white rabbit both looked up at the sky, hoping that water would start to pour down.

Another quarter of an hour passed, and still not a drop of water...

The Rabbit turned its head to look at Tianpeng.

Tianpeng’s face was as red as a glowing coal, and he raged, "Those bastards... they’re neglecting their duties!"

Qin Shou said, "You’re not some fake Tianpeng, are you?"

"How could that be? Look at this armor, look at the brand, it’s genuine Heavenly Court merchandise! Who would dare impersonate me under Heaven and above Earth?" Tianpeng retorted in panic.

Qin Shou said, "I’ll trust you for a few more minutes but if the water doesn’t come, it means you’re a fake. Come on, no point standing here, let’s go inside and take a seat."

Upon hearing that he could finally sit inside the grand hall of the Moon Palace, Tianpeng was exceptionally thrilled. That was where Chang’e lived, after all. Just the thought of it made him subconsciously take a deep breath, as if he could somehow inhale her fragrance out of thin air...

Qin Shou had no patience for this lovesick pig-headed fellow and simply took Tianpeng into the grand hall of the Moon Palace. Then, they really did just sit – right on the ground, as there were no benches.

Tianpeng Marshal looked around, baffled, and said, "Rabbit, how come there’s not even a table or chair here? Do you always sit on the floor?"

Qin Shou replied as if it were the most natural thing in the world, "Of course, the wood from the osmanthus trees is too soft and porous – crafting a cup would require a big chunk, even just to carve a small hole. Making chairs and tables out of it is simply impractical."

Qin Shou was actually puzzled as well; the osmanthus trees from his past life were nowhere near as useless as the ones in this world. But since the world had changed and some differences were to be expected, he just had to accept it.

Upon hearing this, Tianpeng frowned and said, "That won’t do. Fairy Chang’e is such a perfect woman, how could she be made to sit on the ground? You wait here, I’ll have someone send over the finest set of tables and chairs. What about bedding? Never mind, you obviously don’t have it. I’ll also get you a custom-made set of the best bedding!"

When Qin Shou heard the first part, his heart leaped with joy, thinking, This is exactly what I wanted!

But when he listened to the latter part, it normally wouldn’t have been a problem, except why did this damn pig’s eyes gleam green when he mentioned the bedding? Was this guy planning to install a hidden camera in there?

Even though he knew this world had no cameras, Immortal Law was far more effective than any camera!

Although immortals had their reputation to consider and Tianpeng likely wouldn’t do such a thing.

Still, Qin Shou decided that the bedding he provided must never be used by Chang’e!

But if Chang’e couldn’t use it, he could, right? Hmm, it was happily decided...

So Qin Shou, with a face full of admiration, said, "Brother Tianpeng, you’re so generous!"

Tianpeng looked at Qin Shou’s admiring expression and immediately felt his self-esteem replenished to the brim, bursting into hearty laughter, "Of course! I might not have many strengths, but I am known for my loyalty! Can’t stand to see a brother suffer even a little bit!"

Hearing this, Qin Shou jumped up, clapping his hands, "Well said, I like a man like you!"

"Of course!" replied Tianpeng.

Qin Shou asked, "So, does that make us brothers?"

"Of course!" Tianpeng affirmed again.

Qin Shou continued, "Then between real brothers, there should be no need for formalities, right? Look, the Moon Palace still lacks some greenery. Would you take care of that too? Bring over some rare and exotic plants, like a few hundred or thousand years old Ganoderma lucidum Kings, humanoid ginseng, and so on, to keep in the yard for fun.

And, the Moon Palace is too lonely. How about getting some precious birds and exotic beasts? That Azure Bird I saw last time when I passed by the Heavenly Court wasn’t bad... Also, with so many rare creatures, it’d be such a pity if they got sick and died.

So, you might as well set up a decent kitchen, hmm, and make sure to get a big barbecue grill..."

"You’re not raising them, you’re just hungry, right?" Tianpeng asked, speechless.

Qin Shou rolled his eyes, "What kind of person do you take me for?"

Tianpeng glanced at the drool hanging from the corner of Qin Shou’s mouth, "If you weren’t drooling while talking, I might have actually believed you."

Qin Shou hurriedly wiped away his saliva and chuckled, "Don’t mind these trivial details, let’s focus on the main point. Brother, please remember what I just mentioned. Also, I think we could expand the Moon Palace a bit. I reckon raising a few dragons outside wouldn’t be too bad. After all, it’s lonely on the moon, and having a few fierce Big Dogs to guard the place would be reassuring, right? Brother, why are you staring like that?"

"Brother, are you planning to keep dragons as dogs?" Tianpeng was on the verge of collapsing.

Qin Shou naively countered, "Then what? Are there special dog—cough, dragon food for dragons? Is it expensive? Forget it, we can’t afford it even if it’s not expensive. You take care of this... Brother, don’t you think it would be cool to keep a Golden Roc on your hand?"

"Brother." Tianpeng felt more and more cold sweat on his forehead as he listened, urgently interrupting Qin Shou.

Qin Shou asked innocently, "What’s wrong?"

"Can you shut up? What you’re saying is making me anxious... I just want some peace," Tianpeng said, reckoning his dwindling coffers and suddenly realizing that courting women is quite expensive...

Qin Shou responded, "So you have a crush, huh."

Mentioning his crush, Tianpeng immediately found a topic, nodding shyly.

Qin Shou asked, "Who is this girl, Jingjing?"

"Uh... When did I mention Jingjing?" Tianpeng was stunned.

Qin Shou confidently replied, "You said it yourself, you want some quiet time with her. If she isn’t your crush, why would you miss her? But thinking about it, it’s high time you stopped being single. Tell me where she’s from, and I’ll help you propose, okay? We’ll split the dowry fifty-fifty."

Upon hearing this, Tianpeng was about to say no thanks, but then he heard the bit about the dowry and his face turned pitch black! He cursed inwardly: Damn, are you proposing or robbing me on the road? Splitting the dowry fifty-fifty? Why don’t you take the bride as well?

Tianpeng patted the Rabbit on the head and said, "Brother, I appreciate your kindness, but I’m not interested in Jingjing."

"Not interested, yet you miss her?" Qin Shou exclaimed, "Could it be that you’ve been fickle or frequented a brothel? The Wenqu Star Monarch said pursuing pleasures of the flesh while on the path of cultivation is a lowly act, you wouldn’t..."

Upon hearing this, Tianpeng rolled his eyes; what kind of mental gymnastics was this damn rabbit performing? How did things get to this point? He quickly covered Qin Shou’s mouth, fearing Chang’e might hear, "Rabbit, don’t talk nonsense. I’m fine, a Marshal of the Heavenly Court. Why would I visit prostitutes? Besides, there aren’t any brothels in the Heavenly Court."

"How do you know? Have you looked for one?" Qin Shou asked immediately.
