Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 69: Student Loans (Part 1)

Tang Jie didn't know how he got back to Tao Ranju.

After getting rid of the villagers who came up to congratulate him and declining their invitation to purchase, Tang Jie excused himself from the risk and was tired, and walked back step by step with the tiger corpse in his arms.

Countless students were attracted to stop and watch along the way, pointing and pointing, but what echoed in Tang Jie's ears was the roar of the tiger, and what appeared in front of him was the affectionate and helpless glance of the tigress before she died.

It wasn't until he returned to his residence that Tang Jie sat down weakly on the ground.

He released the little tiger from the animal card.

Perhaps because he stayed in that closed space for too long, the little tiger angrily scratched Tang Jie with his claws as soon as he came out, and then saw his mother lying there motionless.

Perhaps thinking that his mother was asleep, the little guy circled around his mother, nudging his mother with his head from time to time, trying to wake her up.

Finally tired, he fell down next to the tiger corpse and fell asleep in a daze.

Yiyi got out of Tang Jie's arms, climbed onto his neck, hugged Tang Jie and whispered softly: "Brother..."

Her voice was low.

The scene that happened today was also a huge shock to this little girl.

"Yes." Tang Jie responded.

He looked at the tiger corpse, then at the still ignorant little tiger, grabbed Yiyi from the body, placed it next to the little tiger, and said, "Yiyi, can you promise me something?"

"Well, brother, I will do whatever you say."

"From now on, Xiaohu will be your brother. Promise, brother, to take good care of him."

"Oh!" Yiyi replied abruptly: "I will take good care of Brother Tiger."

"Very good." Tang Jie touched Yiyi's head: "Bao'er is still young and doesn't understand many things yet. You are the elder sister. You can't argue with your younger brother about things in the future."

Yiyi continued to nod seriously.

Tang Jie smiled, then stood up and walked out.

"Brother, where are you going?" Yiyi asked.

"Go get some food for Xiaohu." Tang Jie replied.

No matter how heavy your heart is, life must go on.

——————————————

The news that Tang Jie killed the tiger spread quickly.

After setting a new record, Tang Jie's name once again caused a sensation in the academy.

Cai Junyang came over that day and laughed out loud when he saw Tang Jie: "You are so fierce that you dare to go to Tiger Roaring Peak to kill the tiger. That is a top-grade psychic beast!"

"It's a low-level psychic. What I killed was a tigress, and it was a tigress that had just given birth to a cub. She was weak and weak, so it was much easier to kill than ordinary monsters." Tang Jie corrected.

"But after all, he was killed under the eyes of a high-grade monster!" Cai Junyang emphasized, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Huxiao Peak, that is Huxiao Peak! How many students dare not even go up? Go up there. Every time you hunt tigers, you have to gather hundreds of people before you dare to go there. In this way, most of the time you are defeated and countless people are injured. You actually dare to go up to Tiger Roaring Peak alone. Even if you kill only a tigress, it is enough. Smiling and proud of the college, I, Cai Junyang, feel ashamed!"

Cai Junyang is actually a very self-reliant person, and it is easy for him to be convinced by anyone, but this time he is really convinced.

It's no wonder. If we talk about heroes in terms of strength, the Lingquan level is just the lowest level for cultivators. There are many people who are stronger than them.

But in terms of courage, there are not many people who dare to do what others don't do.

Setting records only shows strength, while venturing into Tiger Mountain alone shows courage. The latter is often lacking and more precious than the former, and does not increase with age and strength.

Because of this, not only him, but also Master Xiyue looked at Tang Jie in a different light.

"It sounds like I can raise the price again?" Tang Jie asked with a smile.

"Are you still going up?" Cai Junyang's eyes almost popped out: "I haven't even told you what Lin Dongsheng promised, and you are going to go up again?"

"You're kidding, there won't be an increase this time. By the way, judging from your tone, did Lin Dongsheng agree to the seven hundred dollars?"

"I agreed a few days ago, but you stayed in the gold forging platform for those few days and couldn't come out. I searched several times but couldn't find you, which made me mobilize everyone to send you a message, but it didn't arrive. , which makes Lin Dongsheng anxious to death. Not only did I just get the news that you came out, but I actually killed the tigress, and it is indeed yours!"

"So that's it." Tang Jie nodded, a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes.

Here Cai Junyang has already taken out the six hundred dollars: "This is what Lin Dongsheng asked me to give you. I will deduct the one hundred you promised."

"You think I'm greedy, and I didn't see you being polite when I shared the money." Tang Jie replied angrily and accepted the money.

The two chatted and joked for a while, and Cai Junyang left. They only agreed to go down the mountain together in two days and go to the Lin family to celebrate the old man's birthday. As for the birthday gifts, Lin Dongsheng had prepared them himself. The students only had to come to the door with gifts.

Farewell to Cai Junyang, Tang Jie returned to the room and began to think deeply.

He thought over and over about his plan, weighed the various accidents that might occur, and recorded them one by one for analysis.

Seeing that he was serious, Yiyi was smart enough not to disturb him and went to tease the little tiger.

The little thing lost his parents and brothers. He was very uncomfortable at first and would let out a sad low hiss from time to time.

At this time, Yiyi was like a real sister, holding the little tiger in her arms, patting the little tiger's vest, and speaking adult-like words of comfort in an innocent tone.

Although she has never learned these things, she is now self-taught.

The tip of the pen rustled on the paper, and Tang Jie was still immersed in the various accidents that might occur during the execution of the plan, and how to deal with them.

Finally, he found some problems that he had not discovered before, and he also found the corresponding solutions.

Looking at the densely packed plan written on the paper, Tang Jie checked it over and over again to confirm that nothing was missing before putting the plan away.

He took out the formation diagram and materials, erased the previous formation, and Tang Jie actually started to make a new formation diagram.

The new formation diagram was not too difficult, and Tang Jie completed it quickly.

After it was prepared, Tang Jie took out the heart-breaking knife and slashed it at his wrist. Blood spurted out and dripped into the formation.

"What's wrong? Brother." Yiyi was startled by Tang Jie and rushed over.

"Nothing, just more preparations." Tang Jie replied.

The blood poured into the diagram and was quickly absorbed. A red brilliance appeared on the array diagram, glowing with life energy.

Tang Jie still continued to bleed.

While bleeding, he also continued to put in various spiritual fruits obtained from Tiger Roaring Peak.

It wasn't until the entire formation was almost filled with blood, and there was a red tide of blood, that Tang Jie cut off a large piece of meat from his leg and threw it into the formation, then he grabbed the formation and violently As soon as it was collected, it was quickly closed.

Then his eyes blurred and he almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Yiyi came over in time to support him: "Brother!"

The little guy looked at Tang Jie with wide eyes, full of concern.

"I'm fine, I'll be fine in a while." Tang Jie smiled at Yiyi.

"Brother, what are you doing? It's so scary!"

"Just some follow-up preparations."

"Brother, are those bad guys difficult to deal with?"

"Yeah."

"More difficult to deal with than a big tiger?"

"Yeah."

"Then let's not fight them, okay?" Yiyi raised her head and looked at Tang Jie and said.

Tang Jie smiled.

He touched Yiyi's head: "Silly girl, I don't want to fight them, but they will come to me. Don't worry, Yiyi, brother can deal with them. Brother will defeat them and kill them. You have to believe in brother, after this battle, we will be clean for a long time. But..."

After hesitating for a moment, Tang Jie sat down, grabbed Yiyi, and then picked up the little tiger, placed them one on his body, and then said to Yiyi with a serious face: "But brother may have to go out for a while. Time, I can't take Yiyi with me, I have to be separated from Yiyi for some time."

"No!" Yiyi's eyes turned red and she threw herself into Tang Jie's arms: "I won't leave my brother!"

As she spoke, she burst into tears, hugged Tang Jie's neck, and cried so sadly: "Brother, did my disobedience make you angry, and you don't want me anymore?"

Tang Jie felt a pain in his heart when he heard this. He hugged Yiyi and said, "Silly girl, how is it possible? My brother wants you even if he doesn't want anyone else. It's just that my brother has to deal with the enemy, and you are not suitable to participate."

"I'm not afraid, I want to fight with my brother!" Yiyi shouted.

Tang Jie shook his head: "That's not possible. Yiyi is obedient and will need you to take care of Xiaohu after brother leaves. Tell brother, can you take good care of Xiaohu and yourself?"

"No, I can't!" Yiyi cried and shouted: "I don't want to leave you, no, no, just don't!"

Tang Jie was so heartbroken by her crying that he could only pat her on the back and said: "Little fool, in fact, you can help your brother if you are not with him. If you don't obey, he will really Gonna die."

Although Yiyi is a child, she has seen life and death, gone through ups and downs, and is a spiritual being. She is much more sensible than ordinary children. When she heard this, she immediately stopped crying and wiped away her tears and sobbed. He asked: "What can I do to help my brother?"

Looking at the little face that was crying, Tang Jie smiled: "First of all, you have to help me put away this array..."

He handed the formation diagram into Yiyi's hands and whispered what she needed to do next.

Lying in Tang Jie's arms, the little guy listened more seriously than ever before.

————————————

After explaining Yi Yi, Tang Jie went to see Wei Tianchong first. After returning the puppet to him, he went around the outside and then went to Lingtai Pavilion.

After meeting Mrs. Shui, Tang Jie stepped forward to say hello.

Mrs. Shui looked at him with a smile: "Good boy, you just came out of the gold forging platform yesterday, and today you killed the tigress, you are really a troublemaker."

"Thanks to Madam's heart-breaking knife." Tang Jie directly transferred the credit to the heart-breaking knife.

"The treasure I gave you, I know how much it weighs. After all, you are smart, but you just took a little too much risk. That's all, I've done it all, and I said you can't do it. But in the future, I'd better take it easy. That's good. The tiger on Tiger Roaring Peak is not an ordinary high-grade demon tiger. You can't fool it with ordinary tricks."

"Don't worry, kid."

"Tell me, what's going on here?"

"But I have something to ask Madam for help." Tang Jie handed over the tiger corpse to Madam, along with the dissected bear corpse, wolf corpse, and previously unused materials: "Please give Madam an estimate first. price."

Mrs. Shui frowned: "If you don't sell these things to Huxiao Village, what will you do with them?"

Although Lingmiaofang sells materials, it does not collect materials very much, or it does not collect materials from Huxiao Valley. The main reason is that the output of Huxiao Valley is too worthless, that is, the villagers collect them for processing. Lingmiaofang mainly We still sell some more high-end materials and finished products.

However, what Tang Jie harvested this time was mainly the materials from Tiger Roaring Peak, which were much more valuable than those from other valleys. Even so, in Madam Shui's view, they were only barely worth it.

Tang Jie smiled and said: "If Madam takes it, I will sell it. If not, I will use it as a mortgage."

"Mortgage?" Upon hearing this word, Mrs. Shui was obviously stunned: "You want to borrow money?"

"Yes, formal loan!" Tang Jie replied.

In this era, professionalism is not so strong. Many businesses pursue large and comprehensive businesses. It is not uncommon for shops to also engage in loan business. The same is true for Lingtai Pavilion, but the interest rate is relatively low.

Because this is a store under the jurisdiction of Xiyue College, it has a certain nature of funding, so it can be regarded as a student loan.

But even so, not just any student can borrow. They must show a certain degree of strength and have sufficient repayment ability to qualify for the loan.

With Tang Jie's current reputation and ability, he is already qualified to become a customer of Lingmiaofang, and he can be regarded as a potential high-quality customer.

It’s just that he really has no reason to borrow money!

At this moment, Mrs. Shui looked at Tang Jie in surprise: "You have no money anymore? Where is the 10,000 spiritual coins that Xiyue Sect rewarded you a few days ago?"

"There are still about 8,000. If this batch of goods is disposed of, it is estimated to be 10,000." Tang Jie replied. He had spent a lot on materials and scrap scrapers before, but Cai Junyang sent him 600 yuan and made up for it. After disposing of these belongings, he could basically maintain a balance of payments.

"Then you still want to borrow money? What are you going to do?"

Tang Jie replied: "The reason why I was able to kill the tigress this time was all because of my young master's puppet..."

Tang Jie did not answer Mrs. Shui's question, but first talked about how he hunted the tigress.

According to him, this hunting was accomplished by him first waiting for an opportunity to peek aside, using a puppet to lure the demon tiger away, and then suddenly taking action to assassinate the tigress.

It should be said that this lie is quite reasonable, at least in theory there is no problem. As for why the demon tiger was so easily deceived, and why he let Tang Jie touch it so close without noticing it, and even gave him time to take away the spiritual grass... People all make mistakes sometimes, why shouldn't the tiger be allowed to do so?

The advantage of lies is that as long as they work in theory, it doesn’t matter how many problems there are in actual implementation. Anyway, the facts are already there. You have to believe it or not.

At this moment, he recounted his experience of raiding and killing the tiger~IndoMTL.com~ Tang Jie said: "After this battle, I also discovered that I took a risk this time, and it was really my luck that I succeeded. But the puppets divided their forces. The method of luring the enemy, criticizing the strong and destroying the weak, has been proven to be feasible. Unfortunately, the puppet is unintelligent and needs someone to control it to drive the changes. It is unfavorable to lure the enemy too far. It was also thanks to the weakness of the tigress after giving birth that I succeeded with one blow. However, I was still chased back by the demon tiger and almost lost my life. Afterwards, I thought about it again and again and felt that if I could have a puppet that could be controlled by itself and did not need human control like the Black Armor Soldier, the demon tiger could be killed. If we lead it farther, I won't be so seriously injured..."

He had just had his blood drained and was very weak. His face was still pale. With Mrs. Shui's eyes, it was natural to see that the "serious injury" was true, but it had nothing to do with the "hard battle".

But after hearing what he said, Mrs. Shui somewhat understood what he meant: "Do you want to borrow money to buy a puppet?"

"Yes, like a black armor soldier, a puppet that can accept orders from its master and act on its own without control."

"That's not cheap. Such a puppet is extremely sophisticated in terms of materials and formation."

"That's why I need to borrow money." Tang Jie replied with a smile.

"How much do you want to borrow?"

"Two hundred thousand."

"Plop!" All the tea that Madam Shui had just put into her mouth spurted out.
