Chapter 362: After modification: Chapter 334 Base

"I see, thank you Daoist. Have a cup of water."

Li Cheng nodded, then picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of water for the Daoist youth.

The Daoist youth was taken aback for a moment, but still took the cup, sipped it politely, then put it down and left, closing the door behind him.

Li Cheng stood in place, and after a few seconds, when the footsteps faded away, he immediately rushed forward and carefully scraped the inner wall of the cup used by the Daoist youth with a cotton swab.

"Bro, what are you doing?" Zheng Yi was startled.

"He’s collecting DNA."

Yuan Zhixia calmly watched as Li Cheng took out a battery, DNA sequencer, centrifuge, and other devices, and began testing on the spot.

These instruments were high-end goods Li Cheng had brought from the high tower, only clad in the shell of Earth products, significantly shortening the genetic sequencing time.

"Hmm? The people of this world are six-base organisms?"

Li Cheng raised his eyebrows as he looked at the gene test results; all life forms on Earth use the same genetic letters, that is, the four bases A, T, C, and G.

Twenty amino acids, sixty-four codons randomly combine to write the complex and diverse biological evolution history of Earth, from bacteria to humans.

Let’s put it this way, the difference between six-base organisms and Earth people is greater than the difference between Earth people and bananas.

One can completely consider the young Daoist just now, and all living things in this world, as alien life forms.

"All the miscellaneous things in the room show that they can be put into the Backpack, but cannot be taken out of the Script World."

Yuan Zhixia reacted quickly, weighing the legal document in his hand, and said thoughtfully, "Sure enough, the killing field wouldn’t leave us obvious loopholes that can be exploited."

The power levels here are higher than in other worlds, imposing restrictions to prevent players from directly using space items to steal a warehouse of spirit stones, then escape with an Emergency Escape Card.

The six-base setup per capita also can avoid the situation where players randomly take a Foundation Establishment Technique and sell it for tens of thousands of Game Coins—a six-base organism cultivation technique definitely would not be compatible with four-base organisms.

"Tsk, what a pity."

Li Cheng shook his head and put the just-taken-out syringe, hemp rope, handcuffs, hood, and towel back.

The corner of Zheng Yi’s eye twitched wildly as he watched, starting to rant crazily in his heart, ’These are kidnapping tools, right? These must be kidnapping tools, right? You just thought about going out to stun that Daoist youth and bringing him back to the Real Earth to lock him in a small black room to force him to write cultivation techniques, didn’t you?!’

As if he could guess what he was thinking, Li Cheng looked at Zheng Yi and smiled, "Don’t worry, I’m not a bad person, I just see this kid has a connection with me.

By the way, a small life tip, the rag that kidnappers use to stuff into mouths in movies can be easily spat out.

But if you press down the tongue first, then make a dead knot with the towel and slowly stuff it in, it will be as difficult to remove as a light bulb stuffed into a mouth."

Oh, quite a useful life tip...not.

Zheng Yi’s expression was painful, feeling even more pessimistic about the prospects of this mission.

"Alright, time to get to the real work."

Yuan Zhixia took down a stack of legal documents from the bookshelf and began reading at a speed akin to quantum reading, one page per second.

Li Cheng started the Multi-threaded Brain Domain Method, his eyes shaking and trembling, quickly flipping through pages,

while Zheng Yi put a whole set of marriage laws into the copier, printed the copies, used a certain skill to cut the printouts into pieces like a cake with a knife and fork, and then quickly swallowed them with water to efficiently absorb the information.

Everyone used their own methods to gather information, utilizing legal provisions to explore every aspect of this world.

The final result was quite...interesting.

"I see. To put it simply, it still comes down to material conditions determining reality."

Li Cheng put down the hefty legal book. Before Buzhou Mountain broke, mortal world monks could rely on cultivation to refine void and merge Dao, cross tribulation and ascend, becoming independent immortals in the immortal realm, enjoying longevity of several thousand years.

During this period, whether male or female monks, all aimed for ascension as the ultimate goal; few considered marriage, only seeing it as adding mundane cause and effect.

But after Buzhou Mountain broke, the situation changed. Ascension became hopeless, lifespans drastically reduced to two hundred years, and nature’s spiritual energy also began to fade.

The most significant impact was on the Golden Core Realm. Spiritual intelligence gave birth, mundane feelings extinguished. Impulsive nature transformed into true nature, the human heart turned into Dao heart.

It became very difficult for a single monk, even if extraordinarily talented, to condense a complete Golden Core, let alone the subsequent Nascent Soul, Unification, Void, Mahayana Realm.

Since a single monk couldn’t achieve it alone, they needed to find someone they absolutely trusted to partner with and share one Golden Core. Masters and disciples could turn against each other, brothers could betray each other, fathers and sons could still be affectionate.

In the end, it had to be the spouse with the closest living and interest relationship.

Thus, the importance of Daoist couples suddenly rose sharply, and the marriage rate among male and female monks increased significantly.

The two would assess each other’s disposition, talent, personality, sect, living habits, and if everything was confirmed, they would stay together and live for more than a hundred years.

If in harmony, everything would be fine. But if a monk couple wanted a divorce...the division of property and even cultivation would become extremely, extremely troublesome.

Therefore, in most cases, even Golden Core Realm and above Daoist couples, who had long lost affection, would not easily divorce, even if they each had their own lovers outside.

"Here’s the problem, why do Xiao Shui Xingjun and Miao Yin Jushi insist on getting a divorce."

Li Cheng rubbed his chin and asked, "Zhang Wei, what do you think?"

"Huh?"

Zheng Yi, dressed in a suit and with a minorly handsome face, who was a third-rate lawyer in the real world, made a bitter face, "Although I somewhat resemble Zhang Wei from ’Love Apartment’ and am also a lawyer, my name isn’t Zhang Wei."

Li Cheng waved his hand, "Alright Zhang Wei, got it Zhang Wei. The customer is God, Xiao Shui Xingjun is about to arrive, I order you to come up with a defense strategy PPT in three seconds as a lawyer."

"In three seconds...I’m not an AI."

Zhang Wei...no, Zheng Yi scratched his head in distress and said, "In the divorce cases I’ve handled, the reasons were nothing more than faded feelings, financial pressure, unequal distribution of family duties, infidelity and domestic violence, different living habits and values, long-term separation.

Monks in this world generally live for two hundred years, and each has divine skills, so it’s hard to compare to ordinary families..."

As he spoke, a whistling sound of wind came from outside the house.

Going out the door, they saw a purple cloud descending from the sky, and a middle-aged man in a green robe, with an extraordinary and elegant demeanor, stepped down from the cloud.

Li Cheng and Yuan Zhixia exchanged glances and, imitating the previous Daoist youth, cupped their hands in salute, "Daoist, are you Xiao Shui Xingjun?"

"I am."

Xiao Shui Xingjun dispersed the cloud, and his previously calm and indifferent expression suddenly turned into anger and rage,

with a temperament that did not match his appearance at all, he released the Sleeve Universe skill, throwing piles of documents onto the table, then gritted his teeth and said to everyone, "You must be the lawyers assigned to me by the Immortal Court. Win this case for me at all costs.

If you succeed, I will use my connections in the Immortal Court to maintain your lotus bodies and give each of you ten thousand spirit stones."

(Happy New Year~)
