Chapter Eighty-Eight: Snatching Money
At the edge of the murky pool, a dinosaur was drinking from the pool, raising its head from time to time to observe possible dangers.
Its large neck limited its ability to see, and it could barely turn back, only turning around to see behind it, so it didn't notice that a dead leaf was slowly moving towards it behind it.
As it approached, the dinosaur felt a sudden uneasiness in his heart.
The beast's innate instincts made it aware of the danger coming, and it jerked its head and rushed straight to the side with a stomp of its hooves.
At the same time, a cold light flashed from the dead leaves behind it, hitting the most vulnerable point behind the dreadhorn's hips.
"Whew!" the dreadhorn let out an earth-shattering roar, stomping on all fours, trying to escape from the dangerous place.
However, several green vines suddenly rose under its feet, and they tightly wrapped around it, so that it could not break free for a while.
It let out a roar of rage, and a yellow light suddenly appeared on its body, as if it was about to launch some kind of spell.
At this moment, the sword light flashed out, and a sharp light and shadow swept out, quickly cutting along the white line behind the dinocer's head.
I only heard a flutter, and the behemoth's head had already fallen.
The figure flashed in the air, and Tang Zheng's body had already landed on the dreadhorn beast.
Looking at the corpse, he smiled and said, "Luckily, we have meat to eat now." ”
As a low-grade demon beast, don't look at it as bulky, it actually has a very strong ability to escape, the scale armor around it is extremely hard, and the natural spell can be used to escape, and it can only be killed by using sneak attack methods, and it can only be killed by hitting the back of the head with one blow.
At this moment, Tang Zheng had already begun to dissect this dinosaur. This guy's scale armor and unicorn are good materials, and all the essence is concentrated here, so that there is nothing valuable in the body.
Here is peeling horns and armor, and the little tiger has already rushed up and gnawed at the beast corpse, eating a mouth full of blood, which is extremely indecent.
"Don't worry, it's all yours. Tang Zai touched the tiger's head and smiled.
The little tiger snorted and chirped in reply.
Lying on Tang Zao's shoulder, watching Tang Zao busy, he asked curiously: "Brother, all the bad guys are dead, why don't we go back to the Moon Washing Academy?"
Tang Zai replied while peeling off the armor: "What's the hurry, it's hard to get out of it, and here is the cloud mist where this demon beast is entrenched, by the way, it's not good to beat the little monsters and get some benefits?"
"Cloudy is very dangerous, there are many, many monsters. ”
"Then it's even more important to look for opportunities to see what can be gained. ”
"But we're not short of money now, didn't my brother say that we made a lot of money this time?"
Tang Zheng's hand paused for a moment, and after thinking about it, he replied, "Yes, but it may not necessarily be ours." ”
"Huh?" Iyi was puzzled.
"Yiyi, you are still young, there are many things you still don't understand, I told you, you may not understand. But you have to remember that although the strength of the immortal cultivation world is respected, the improvement of strength is endless, no matter how strong you are, you will find that there are always more powerful people above you who are pressing you. Unless one day your strength reaches the point where you are the only one in heaven and on earth, it is best to think about everything you do. ”
Speaking of this, Tang Zheng raised his head to look at Yi Yi, and he smiled: "If we go back to the Moon Washing Academy now, the academy will definitely punish me for the lies I told before." In that case, do you think they'll recognize me for taking the credit for bringing back the evergreen heads?"
Yi Yi was surprised and asked, "Isn't it? But you said that the big factions are all about reputation." ”
"Of course, but what is reputation? It's something that is used to publicize it. The Moon Washing Sect was robbed, and the Moon Washing Sect went out to save people on a large scale, spending countless manpower and material resources, how can this account be calculated? To calculate the value of Gu Changqing's head? No problem, but the Moon Washing Sect spent so much manpower and material resources to save me, and it is a matter of course to settle accounts with me, right? When the time comes, you will find that not to mention that a Gu Changqing's head is not worth counting, even if I kill Gu Changqing, most of these things they obtained will also have to be used to offset the account, maybe it is not enough, and I will have to owe them. Two hundred thousand, which sounds like a lot, is for an individual! It is used to pay for the transfer of a large amount of manpower from a great sect of immortal cultivators...... That's a drop in the bucket. ”
"But you've helped them eliminate a lot of the villains of the Heavenly God Palace. ”
"Yes, but they don't count it. The strong side may not be able to do whatever it wants, but the strong side will also have the right to speak...... They make the rules!"
"Will they do that?" said Ey.
"I didn't say that they would definitely do this, but at least this may not be? I'm not Tang Jie anymore, and the Moon Washing Party has no expectations for me, since there is no expectation, the cost of what I have paid must be recovered." Tang Zheng replied meaningfully: "Don't test human nature, if you don't want to be disappointed, try not to give them such a chance." ”
Yi Yi pursed his lips: "The Moon Washing Sect is really bad!"
Tang Zao Dalu laughed: "Silly girl, I said that this is just a possibility, don't blame others for what they haven't done." ”
"So what do we do?"
"Simple, find a safe place to hide all the proceeds, and wait until you go back to the Moon Washing Academy, and then start it when the matter is over...... When you have money, everyone will settle accounts with you, and when you don't have money, there is no need for that. ”
If Tang Zheng returned to the Moon Washing Academy with his wealth and goods, it was really hard to say how many people in the academy would suddenly transform from life-saving benefactors to blood-devouring jackals, without Tang Jie's talisman, many of the former conveniences would disappear.
These conveniences may not be visible in normal times, but when you lose them, you will feel that you will not be able to move an inch.
Because of this, Tang Zheng would not give others such a chance no matter what.
Only then did Yi Yi understand why Tang Zheng wanted to go around in this cloud and mist, and he felt that he was looking for a more suitable place to store his property.
Tang Zheng continued: "Actually, it's not just this reason. Another reason is that no matter how much I lie, it is a little unreasonable to deal with a cultivator like Gu Changqing Ninth Transition Stage as a Lingquan Stage. Therefore, the top priority is to work hard to ascend to the Linghu stage first, and then have an explanation after going back. ”
"Could it be that Linghu is reasonable for the Nine Turns?" Even if Yi Yi is no longer sensible, this thing sounds unreliable enough.
The cultivator is the fourteenth order of the fifth realm, and the cross-border challenge is quite normal, but the cross-border challenge is absolutely abnormal.
The realm is a qualitative change, an excellent Linghu student may be able to easily defeat an ordinary Linghai student, but it is almost impossible for an excellent Linghai student to defeat the worst Immortal Realm.
“...... Hmm, it's better than Lingquan's nine turns. ”
Yi Yi hugged his arms and looked like a little adult: "I don't think it's very reasonable." ”
“...... It's a little closer. Tang Zheng said: "This matter can only be taken one step at a time, first solve the problem of the realm, whether it is escape or counter-killing, you need to have enough strength to be confident to explain." ”
"But how long will it take you to enter the Spirit Lake?"
"It won't be long. Tang Zheng replied: "I'm sure, as long as I unlock the New Rain Spell of the Empty Mountain, I will be able to enter the Spirit Lake in a month at most." ”
With the strong physical fitness brought by the meridian refining body, Tang Zheng's cultivation efficiency was much higher than that of others, if it weren't for the delay in realm improvement in order to quickly improve his strength, he would have been able to enter the Spirit Lake by now.
Now that Gu Changqing is dead, the Heavenly God Palace has come to an end for the time being, Tang Zheng can finally go all out to improve the realm, plus there are still some medicines to assist in cultivation in the three mustard seed bags, Tang Zheng said that it is really not a blow to enter the Spirit Lake within a month.
The only thing that restrained him was the New Rain Spell of the Empty Mountain.
With this spell, he couldn't gather spiritual energy, so he couldn't cultivate.
However, spells are not innate, and no spell can survive for long without support. These days, Tang Zheng has been impacting the Empty Mountain New Rain Mantra, without the blessing and restriction of the people in the Eagle Hall, Tang Zheng can feel that the Empty Mountain New Rain Curse has loosened a little, and I believe that it will not be long before he can break through this restriction by himself and truly recover his strength.
"But if you enter the Spirit Lake, you can't enter the Tiger Roaring Valley anymore. ”
"It's just that you can't enter as a hunter, but you can still do it in other capacities. In addition, Tiger Roaring Valley has limited resources and high costs, so after all, it is just a place for us to experience the life of cultivation, not a suitable place to obtain resources. As far as I'm concerned, after obtaining the blood refining, there is no need to go more, it's a big deal to go to see Wang Poguan occasionally. ”
"It also left a lot of monsters for you. ”
"Leave it to the little master. ”
"You're going to let him go to Tiger Roar Peak?"
“...... I know it's difficult, but there's always a way. Tang Zheng smiled: "Okay, anyway, the next thing we have to do is to cultivate and improve ourselves!"
Yi Yi nodded and shouted, "En, cultivate! Cultivate! Yi Yi also wants to cultivate, and fight the bad guys with his brother in the future!"
"Okay. Tang Zai laughed.
At this moment, Tang Zheng's ears suddenly moved, his face changed slightly, and he stretched out his finger and whispered beside his mouth.
The little guy understood and asked in a low voice, "Someone is coming?"
After following Gu Changqing for so many days, Tang Zheng had made significant progress in terms of insight, so at this moment, he noticed that the aura fluctuation in the rear was abnormal.
Tang Zheng nodded: "It should be the person who came to hunt down Gu Changqing, let's go, don't let them find out." ”
As he spoke, Tang Zheng tore off a piece of flesh and blood from his body, threw it into the distance, and rushed towards the depths of the swamp.
It didn't take long for dozens of figures to appear in the swamp.
A sturdy man glanced at the corpse of the dinosaur on the ground and said, "Not long after he died, the person must be nearby." Disperse the search, a few of you go here, a few of you go there, keep in touch, don't fall in love when you encounter a target, immediately send a warning signal, and the others will follow me!"
The crowd has dispersed in an instant, running everywhere, looking at the uniform movements, obviously all of them are well-trained and good players, but judging from the dress, these people are obviously not from the Moon Washing Sect, they should be some small sects in Wenxin's country.
The fierce man led a group of people to chase down in the direction that Tang Zheng had walked through, and his eyes flashed from time to time, and everything around him was in full view, and nothing was missed.
In a frantic run, the man shouted, "Stop!"
Everyone stopped at the same time, and the man looked left and right, and suddenly pointed to a large rock in the distance, and everyone behind him raised their hands at the same time.
In the next moment, countless flying fire meteors appeared from their hands, sword light, sword qi, and flying shuttle rumbled into a sharp light and shadow, blasting towards the boulder in the distance.
Boom, the boulder was blown to pieces.
When the smoke cleared, the fierce man walked over to take a look, grabbed a fox corpse, and said, "It turned out to be a cunning fox, let's go!"
The group had quickly sunk into the forest.
When the people were far away, a figure slowly rose from a piece of mud not far from the boulder.
It was the Tang Tribulation.
Looking at the direction of the comer's pursuit, he muttered to himself: "Strange, why do you come up and be ruthless? This means that you don't want to live, is it possible that even I want to kill?" Yes, the Moon Washing Sect only said that it was enough to hand over Gu Changqing's head, but they didn't say that they had to bring the living Tang Zheng back...... Damn, they're not here to save people, they're here to grab money. ”
Tang Zheng suddenly understood that these people didn't care about Tang Zheng's life or death at all, they only cared about Gu Changqing's head.
If Tang Tribulation was in Gu Changqing's hands, then they actually had hope of becoming a lifesaver for Tang Tribulation.
But when Gu Changqing died, the nature of these people immediately changed.
Without asking, it can be known that if these people find out that they killed Gu Changqing, the next fate waiting for him is not to save people, but to kill people immediately.
If it weren't for Tang Zheng's own plans and wanted to return to the Moon Washing Academy in a few days, then when he saw that these people mistakenly thought they were rescuers and greeted them, most of them would be dead by now.
These small sects don't have as many rules as the Moon Washing Sect, and their reputation is not important to them, only interests and strength come first!
"So what do we do now?" asked Yiyi.
Tang Zheng's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Ignore them first, and then clean them up one by one after I break the empty mountain new rain spell and rush to the Spirit Lake." ”
"But you said don't condemn them for what they didn't do. ”
"It's invalid!"
