#621 - Osmanthus flowers, Wu Gang

It is said that Marshal Tian Peng left the Tianhe River some time ago and went straight to the Moon Palace... to the osmanthus tree behind it.

When he arrived at the osmanthus tree, Wu Gang was carefully picking osmanthus flowers, planning to give them to Chang'e as rabbit food.

Marshal Tian Peng, upon seeing this, immediately shouted: "Hey~! You lecher! This is outrageous!"

Wu Gang looked at Marshal Tian Peng, who was rushing over, with a confused expression.

He could understand the individual words Marshal Tian Peng spoke, but when connected together, Wu Gang couldn't understand them.

It was like a donkey's lips not matching a horse's mouth, completely irrelevant.

Wu Gang wondered in his heart: "What's wrong with this Marshal Tian Peng... Why am I a lecher... Does picking osmanthus flowers make me a lecher?"

Wu Gang frowned slightly and said, "Marshal Tian Peng, what do you mean by this?"

Marshal Tian Peng said: "Hmph~! When the osmanthus flowers bloom, you hoard them all to yourself, you are simply a beast in human form!"

Wu Gang pointed at the osmanthus tree and said, "This osmanthus tree is with me day and night. When it blooms, do I have to advertise it to the world?"

"What does picking osmanthus flowers have to do with being a beast in human form or a lecher?"

Marshal Tian Peng said: "Don't think I don't know your little thoughts. Aren't you just trying to pick osmanthus flowers to please the Fairy Chang'e in the Moon Palace?"

"I'm telling you, no way!!! Not even a window for you!"

"Now that I'm here today, don't even think about monopolizing these osmanthus flowers!"

"I want to be the first to give osmanthus flowers to Fairy Chang'e."

Hearing Marshal Tian Peng's words, Wu Gang smiled.

"So that's how it is. I was wondering. Since you want to be the first to give osmanthus flowers to Fairy Chang'e, then I will grant you this wish," Wu Gang said.

It's not like everyone in the Heavenly Court doesn't know about Marshal Tian Peng's affection for Chang'e.

But Wu Gang, who is within the Moon Palace's vicinity, sees Marshal Tian Peng running over to show his courtesy every now and then.

Even if he hasn't eaten pork, he should have seen a pig run.

Even ordinary people without cultivation in the Primordial World know about love between men and women, so Wu Gang, who has lived for so long, is not a fool.

He understood what was going on with a little calculation in his heart...

Fairy Chang'e has a beautiful face, one of the most beautiful in the Primordial World.

She also has a detached and aloof temperament, which adds a lot to her remarkable beauty.

Many male immortals in the Heavenly Court like Chang'e and want to become Daoist partners with her, to engage in the joy of union.

Immortals are also people, but more advanced than people.

As long as they are people, they will not cut off the seven emotions and six desires, and there will be some desires, especially the desire for union between men and women.

Of course, these male immortals secretly like Chang'e, and none of them are as blatant as Marshal Tian Peng.

But thinking of Marshal Tian Peng's position in the Heavenly Court, he does have the qualifications to be blatant.

He is in charge of the 100,000 naval soldiers of the Tianhe River. This status and position is considered middle to upper class in the Heavenly Court.

Compared to a certain general who pulls curtains all day long and is responsible for security matters.

Although he is titled a general, what he does and his status in the Heavenly Court are completely incomparable to Marshal Tian Peng.

Does Wu Gang like Chang'e? As a male immortal, especially a man.

It would be false to say that he has no thoughts, but it would also be unrealistic to say that he has too many thoughts.

Wu Gang's appreciation for Chang'e far outweighs his liking, especially the kind of liking between men and women.

At this time, seeing Marshal Tian Peng like this, and thinking of what Marshal Tian Peng had said before, Wu Gang instantly understood.

"It's just picking osmanthus flowers, I'll let you pick enough later," Wu Gang thought to himself.

Picking osmanthus flowers is a technical job, and you can't do it without some skills.

The osmanthus tree that Wu Gang has been chopping down day and night has remained the same for so many years, how can it be an ordinary product?

Not to mention the osmanthus flowers that bloom on the tree.

To pick osmanthus flowers, you need a certain level of cultivation to support it, especially in terms of spiritual power.

Even with Wu Gang's cultivation, he has to be careful when picking osmanthus flowers.

He is so careful for two reasons. First, osmanthus flowers are extremely fragile, especially after being picked.

If you are not careful, they will be destroyed.

It would be fine if they were destroyed on ordinary days, but you must know that these osmanthus flowers are to be given to Fairy Chang'e as rabbit food.

Naturally, it is necessary to maintain their completeness, otherwise, it is better not to send a pile of messy osmanthus flowers.

The second reason is that every time you pick an osmanthus flower, you need to pay a lot of spiritual power and physical strength.

Wu Gang looked at Marshal Tian Peng with a smile that was not a smile, took a few steps back, and made way.

Marshal Tian Peng didn't know that he was stepping into the pit dug by Wu Gang, and hummed in his mouth:

"It would have been better if you had done this earlier. You had to let me say a few words to you before you became sensible."

"Next time the osmanthus tree blooms, you must notify me in time. Don't try to monopolize it alone!"

Wu Gang did not refute, and looked at Marshal Tian Peng with a meaningful tone and said, "Then I will have to trouble Marshal Tian Peng."

"Marshal, please work hard, remember to maintain the completeness of these osmanthus flowers."

"Otherwise, Fairy Chang'e may be unhappy if you send them to her."

Marshal Tian Peng said: "I know this, do I need you to tell me?"

"Just watch me next."

After saying this, Marshal Tian Peng reached out and carefully picked the osmanthus flowers.

When he picked the first osmanthus flower, Marshal Tian Peng felt that his spiritual power and physical strength suddenly decreased a little.

This little bit seems insignificant, but there are so many osmanthus flowers on the osmanthus tree.

With his cultivation, the spiritual power in his body can't last long.

The quick-witted Marshal Tian Peng instantly understood what Wu Gang meant.

But the words have already been spoken, and to go back on his word now is tantamount to slapping himself in the face.

Now he can only grit his teeth and persevere...

Looking at the container for osmanthus flowers below the osmanthus tree, Marshal Tian Peng's face was a little pale.

The osmanthus flower container was only filled less than one-third at this time.

There are still two-thirds left, and Marshal Tian Peng estimates that he will have to spend a lot of effort to fill it.

But it's just a matter of spending some effort. For Marshal Tian Peng, it's a bit uncomfortable, but he can still complete it.

Thinking of this, Marshal Tian Peng breathed a sigh of relief...

Before he could completely exhale this breath, Marshal Tian Peng saw Wu Gang walking towards the osmanthus flower container.

He was also muttering in his mouth: "The osmanthus flowers inside were picked by me, so they can't be counted as the Marshal's."

"If the Marshal wants to send osmanthus flowers to Fairy Chang'e as a gift, he has to do it himself to show his true feelings."

Speaking of this, he also looked at Marshal Tian Peng and blinked his eyes, and said, "Marshal, don't you think so?"

A trace of embarrassment appeared on Marshal Tian Peng's face. At this time, he really wanted to say: In fact, there is no need to be so particular about giving gifts, what is the intention or not.

Thinking of his attitude just now, saying such a thing at this time is tantamount to admitting defeat.
