The house wasn't large, but it was clean and tidy as soon as you entered, which showed that the old shopkeeper and his wife cherished their home.

The house is not far from the restaurant, which is in the middle of the bustling city, but the alley where it is located is unusually quiet, giving it a sense of tranquility amidst the noise.

Zheng Zhuang swept his spiritual sense across the house, and the entire house was enveloped in a peaceful and serene atmosphere, a sign of a family that had accumulated good deeds.

According to his employees, the old manager was a kind and generous man who often helped beggars on the street and treated them very well.

So when the old manager left, the waiters in the restaurant were very reluctant to see him go.

To reassure everyone, Zheng Zhuang promised that everything would remain the same and immediately gave all the workers a 20% raise, which put everyone at ease.

Zheng Zhuang didn't really value silver; with his cultivation level, obtaining such worldly possessions was a piece of cake.

Buying a house is nothing more than an obsession left over from a past life.

In short, Zheng Zhuang was very satisfied with this house, which resembled a traditional courtyard house.

Upon entering the courtyard, the first thing that catches the eye is a small stone table with several stone stools underneath.

There is a well not far away, and judging from the stones at the wellhead, it has been there for quite some time.

To prevent dust and fallen leaves from getting into the well, a large wooden lid was placed over it.

On the other side of the courtyard, an old tree lay quietly, bare, its species unknown.

"Is this tree dead?" Qin Qianqian asked with some regret.

Zheng Zhuang suddenly had a thought. He had read a novel before, and the protagonist in the book had a jujube tree in his yard.

Of course, there are also two trees in front of the door of a great man.

That's right, one is a jujube tree, and the other is also a jujube tree...

"It was on its deathbed, but it was lucky to meet me. Even a withered tree can bloom again!"

As soon as Zheng Zhuang finished speaking, a light rain began to fall from the sky without warning. The raindrops slowly receded in mid-air and finally fell only on the withered trees in the courtyard.

Then, it seemed as if all the rainwater was absorbed by the dead tree. In the blink of an eye, the dead tree began to grow taller and sprout, and soon flower buds appeared.

"So this is a peach tree!"

Qin Qianqian and Niu Daben looked at Zheng Zhuang with eyes full of admiration.

The peach tree branches swayed slightly, as if expressing their gratitude to Zhengzhuang.

Such a spectacular sight naturally attracted the attention of many people in the vicinity, since it was not the season for peach blossoms to bloom.

Some curious people rushed over to the peach tree, but they soon realized something was wrong.

The peach tree was right in front of me, yet I couldn't get close to it no matter what I did; it was something I could see but couldn't reach.

If it weren't for the wafting fragrance of flowers, everyone would have thought it was an illusion.

The fragrance of peach blossoms is not strong, but people nearby feel as if they are in a world of floral scent, and feel refreshed.

"Huh? My head doesn't hurt anymore!"

"My lady, the scar on your forehead is gone!"

"I...I'm better too!"

"What's wrong with you? Let me see!"

"Get lost! I treated you like a brother, and you actually want to see my..."

"..."

Everyone suddenly realized that a strange person lived here and did not like to be disturbed.

Soon after, a mysterious place appeared in Quliang City, and the alley was renamed Peach Blossom Alley.

Literati and scholars often come here to admire the peach blossoms, which has boosted the business of restaurants in Zhengzhuang, but that's another story.

Zheng Zhuang hadn't actually expected that he was just using the rainwater to infuse the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the withered tree, thinking that at most it would revive the withered tree.

The fact that this peach tree has undergone such a change shows that it was originally extraordinary.

"Very well! I'll lend you another hand!"

Zheng Zhuang activated his magic, causing the soil beneath the peach tree to churn and form a green magic circle that emitted bursts of light.

After the light faded, the ground returned to calm. The peach tree appeared unchanged on the surface, but its roots underground had swelled several times over.

"From now on, it's up to your own destiny!"

Suddenly, the peach tree branches rustled, and then a peach blossom fell off on its own, slowly drifting to Zheng Zhuang's side.

The peach blossom still had water droplets on it, making it look delicate and beautiful, and Zheng Zhuang sensed that it contained a strong vitality.

Zheng Zhuang smiled slightly, looked at Qin Qianqian who was standing beside him with an envious expression, and gently placed the hair ornament in her hair.

Qin Qianqian was stunned at first, then her heart raced, her cheeks flushed, and she quickly lowered her head.

Zheng Zhuang realized that his words were somewhat ambiguous, and quickly coughed lightly.

"I just think this flower... suits you quite well, don't overthink it!"

Without waiting for Qin Qianqian's reply, he walked straight into the inner room.

After a while, Qin Qianqian gradually calmed down and couldn't help but smile sweetly.

"Hey! That tree, give me one too! I'll definitely look good wearing this flower!"

Niu Daben saw the peach blossoms on Qin Qianqian's head and shouted at the peach tree.

Seeing that the peach tree hadn't moved for a while, Niu Daben easily went over to it:

"If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes and I'll do it myself!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Niu Daben got close, Tao Shuzhi moved to the side as if fleeing.

Niu Daben could only retreat dejectedly, muttering to himself:

"mean!"

A moment later, Niu Daben's eyes lit up. He pretended to approach the tree trunk unintentionally, and the peach tree seemed to know Niu Daben's intention and immediately lifted up the branches.

However, what the peach tree didn't expect was that Niu Daben simply lifted one of his legs against the tree trunk, seemingly searching for a suitable position.

"Niu Daben! If you dare to pee, see how I... young master will deal with you! You're supposed to be a cow, have some self-respect, okay?"

Niu Daben recalled his first encounter with Zheng Zhuang, the thunderclouds that seemed like a celestial tribulation, and couldn't help but...

Then, Qin Qianqian was stunned, Niu Daben was dumbfounded, and Tao Shu was completely caught off guard.

After being enlightened by Zheng Zhuang, the peach tree had gained some basic intelligence. It didn't know what was being rained on, but it felt warm and comfortable, so it stretched out its branches.

"Look, Sister Qianqian, it seems to like it quite a bit." Niu Daben chuckled.

Seeing this, Qin Qianqian shook her head and laughed as well.

The peach tree doesn't understand many emotions, but it can sense the happiness of the person and the ox beneath it.

They seem to really like this warm water?

Give a peach, receive a gift in return... water!

So, the peach tree used one of its roots to absorb the "warm water" that hadn't fully soaked into the soil, then gently lifted it up and sprayed it out at Niu Daben and Qin Qianqian...

This move was unexpected by everyone. Niu Daben was too close to dodge it, and Qin Qianqian didn't have time to activate her protective shield.

"Ah! Niu Daben, I'm going to kill you!"

"It wasn't me, it was it... Lord, save me!"

Qin Qianqian screamed and summoned her flying sword to chase after Niu Daben.

Niu Daben wanted to argue, but found that he seemed to be involved in the matter, so he could only desperately hide and go into hiding.

Peach Tree looked at the man and ox chasing each other below, and couldn't understand why they were laughing heartily just a moment ago, and how they had turned against each other with swords in the blink of an eye.

As the situation escalated, Zheng Zhuang, who had been watching the spectacle intently, finally couldn't resist pointing towards the courtyard:

"Certainly!"
