Chapter 51: The Valley of the Tiger (3)

After disposing of the fur and other things, Tang Zheng continued on the road.

Tiger Roaring Valley is the gourd mouth terrain that is narrow in front and wide in the back, the more you go inside, the more spacious it is, as the valley that is artificially opened, it occupies half of the Qingyun Mountain, not only the area is vast, and the terrain is complex, there are grasslands, lakes, jungles, hills, it is a mountain in the lake, there is a valley in the mountain, and the valley has its own pattern.

At this moment, Tang Zheng walked all the way, and came to a waterhole under the mountain, and saw that the water was clear, so he stopped and scooped some water with his hands to drink, and by the way, he saw if there were any spiritual plants worth picking in this vicinity.

But it looks like it used to be, but it's all been taken.

Tang Zheng didn't care, and after drinking the water, he sat down on the edge of a big rock, hanging his head and not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, his heart moved slightly, and he looked up at the top of the mountain in the distance.

I saw that on the top of the mountain in the distance, a white-fronted tiger appeared at some point.

The tiger squatted on a big rock on the top of the mountain, looking at Tang Zheng and Yiyi in his arms without blinking.

Although Yi Yi hid in his arms and did not show his head, at that moment, Tang Zheng felt that the tiger's gaze seemed to have penetrated the cloth and saw through everything.

"Roar ......" came a low tiger roar.

The sound was not loud, but it was thick and long, and it spread all over the valley.

Hearing the voice, Yi Yi poked his head out and glanced at the white-fronted tiger.

Xiao Yiyi didn't feel the momentum on the tiger's body, and he didn't feel scared, but asked Tang Zheng:

"Brother, that tiger is looking at me! Is it also a demon?"

"Well, and it's a very powerful demon. Tang Zai sighed, but his eyes stopped on the tiger without blinking.

"Then why didn't it come to chase us?" Yi Yi was very curious, along the way, whenever a demon beast found Yi Yi, it would inevitably chase and kill them desperately, so that they ran away for much more time than ordinary students.

"Because it can't come down. Tang Zheng replied: "There is a formation on the top of the mountain, trapping it." ”

"Ah, why is there a formation to trap it? Aren't all the demon beasts in this Tiger Roaring Valley free?"

"This is the exception...... Yiyi, do you know where the name Tiger Roaring Valley came from?"

Yi Yi was stunned: "It can't be because of this big tiger, right?"

Tang Zheng nodded: "To be exact, because of its ancestors." ”

"Its ancestors?"

"Yes. Tang Zheng nodded.

He looked at the white-fronted tiger at the top of the mountain, and the tiger was also looking at him from above.

Tang Zheng simply sat on a big rock, facing the tiger, and said loudly: "Yes, when Tiger Roaring Valley was at the earliest, it was actually a place where a demon tiger was imprisoned, and this mountain peak was its prison place. Many years ago, there were four demons in the Moon Washing Academy, turtles, cranes, tigers, carp, and demon tigers, which were the third tigers. These four demons were actually the partners of the predecessors of the Moon Washing Sect at the beginning, just like you and me. ”

"Oh......" Yi Yi nodded in understanding, "And what about later?"

"Later?" Tang Zheng smiled: "These four demons were originally the partners of the Moon Washing Master, some of these predecessors later soared and broke the boundary, some died, and some couldn't go out of retreat, these four demons didn't have their masters by their side, so they simply stayed in the academy and became the big demons of the town." But one day, the demon tiger suddenly betrayed. ”

"Demon Tiger betrayal?"

"Yes. Tang Zheng nodded: "The Demon Tiger betrayed because he coveted a treasure of the Moon Washing Sect, and then the Demon Tiger stole the treasure and left, but was captured by the Moon Washing Sect, in order to find out where the secret treasure was, he imprisoned it on this Tiger Roar Peak, imposed the most cruel punishment on it, and interrogated it night and night." Every night, the sorrowful roar of the demon tiger will sound on the Tiger Roaring Peak, which was later named Tiger Roaring Peak. ”

"And what about later?" Iyi listened to Tang Zai's story with his chin cupped.

"Later...... The demon tiger has never explained where the secret treasure it stole is, and the Moon Washing Academy has not been able to get anything, and the demon tiger has been locked up until the most old man dies on this Tiger Roaring Peak. But it's not just itself, it also has a wife and children. After the death of the Demon Tiger, his wife and children remained imprisoned here, because the Moon Cleaners believed that the Demon Tiger might have left the secret to his wife or children through bloodline or other means, and they continued to imprison the Demon Tiger's descendants here for interrogation, but they still did not get what they wanted. Later, the Lunatic Sect gave up completely. They simply took this Tiger Roar Peak as the center and opened up this Tiger Roaring Valley, making it a testing ground for students. As for this Tiger Roaring Peak, it has become the last challenge area for students......"

"It turns out that this tiger is the only high-grade demon beast!" Yi Yi shouted as he pointed to the tiger on the top of the mountain.

Tang Zheng nodded and replied, "That's right, it is the only psychic high-grade demon beast in this Tiger Roaring Valley, and it is also the direct descendant of that demon tiger." It is locked up here, and can only walk on this peak, not out of the peak, but the students can enter and exit the mountain at will and hunt demon tigers. ”

For the students, the strength of the top-grade demon beast is too strong, so strong that if the demon tiger is allowed to walk freely in the valley, even if there is a jade plate, it may not be able to save the student's life.

Because of this, the academy detained the demon tiger in solitary detention, which can be regarded as giving the students the right to choose.

If you don't want to run into a high-grade demon beast, there's nothing wrong if you don't go to the peak. Of course, if you go to the top, then take responsibility for your own life.

"If that's the case, aren't all the demon tigers dead?" Yi asked.

"No, it won't. Tang Zheng replied: "Every once in a while, the Moon Washing Sect will catch a demon tiger from the outside, mate with the demon tiger on this Tiger Roaring Mountain, and produce offspring, so that they will not become extinct, and the Moon Washing students are also strictly required that if they encounter tiger cubs, they must not be killed." If the old demon tiger is dead and the new demon tiger has not yet grown, the Tiger Roar Peak will be temporarily closed and reopened when it grows up. The other demon beasts in Tiger Roar Valley change every year, anyway, as long as the strength is about the same, but the demon tiger on this Tiger Roaring Peak has not changed for hundreds of years, and it has always been the descendant of the demon tiger, continuing from generation to generation. For thousands of years, this Tiger Roaring Peak has been dyed red by tiger blood many times, and no demon tiger has ever ended well. This is the punishment for that demon tiger...... Woe to your children and grandchildren!"

As if he heard Tang Zheng's words, the tiger on the top of the mountain let out a low whistling sound, and the sound echoed in the valley, full of sadness.

"It's horrible. Yi Yi was also frightened by the story told by Tang Zheng.

She's still young after all, and some things are still too cruel for her right now.

In fact, even for the students, the story seems a bit cruel.

But the Moon Washing Academy does not hide this.

Just as the Heavenly Punishment Hall taught the students to learn to trust the Moon Washing Sect, Tiger Roaring Peak told the students the fate of betrayal in another way.

Tang Zheng said with a smile: "It's a little cruel to the demon tiger, but how is it not the case for the students? Do you know how many students have to die every time you kill the demon tiger? High-grade demon beasts are never easy to kill." Relying on the large number of people, the students can certainly kill the demon tiger, but the demon tiger's dying counterattack can always drag some people into the water. Don't be superstitious about jade cards, attacks like demon tigers, ordinary students are usually killed with one hit. Because of this, the vast majority of demon tiger hunting operations actually ended in failure. Not because they couldn't fight, but because they were scared, frightened, broke down, and fled in the face of that tragic death......"

"Then are they still going? Is this demon tiger very valuable?"

"Valuable?" Tang Zai raised his eyebrows: "Of course it is worth it, the top-grade demon beasts are more valuable than the middle and lower grades, but no matter how valuable they are, can they compare to their own lives? It's just that as the only top-grade demon beast, for students, if anyone can kill it, it is equivalent to creating a brilliant ...... This was the maximum amount of glory that the Spirit Spring Rank could obtain, and in some ways it was even higher than the Seven Heavens Temple record. This alone is enough to make many people forget about their lives. In addition, there is also a saying that the secret treasure of the moon washing stolen by the demon tiger back then has actually been on this Tiger Roar Peak all along, but no one has ever been able to find it out. Therefore, there are also students who expect to climb to the sky in one step and find the secret treasure. And if you want to find the secret treasure, you naturally have to step on the corpse of the demon tiger. ”

"Wow, if we kill the demon tiger, won't we be able to get the treasure?" Yiyi's eyes widened, and his eyes were full of longing.

Tang Zheng looked amused, pinched her little face and said, "Silly girl, what the Moon Washing Sect hasn't found for hundreds of years, how can a student find it? That secret treasure may have long disappeared from the world, so that it is impossible for the demon tiger to hand it over, so it is necessary to be punished here for generations." ”

"Hmm, I hate it, don't pinch your face!" Yi yelled in dissatisfaction.

"However......" Tang Zheng suddenly changed his words: "Although you can't get the secret treasure, it doesn't mean that you can't have other gains." There are always some treasures that are actually there, right in front of everyone's eyes, but most people just ignore them. ”

"What's more?"

Tang Zai smiled: "Think for yourself, Yiyi, use your brain to think about it." The information is in the story, it's up to you to find out, don't worry, you have enough time to think. ”

"Hmph, I don't think about it. Yi Yi turned his head angrily: "You are a student of the academy, and the immortal master told you everything about it, of course you understand it, I can't guess anything strange." ”

Tang Zaoyouyou replied: "When the teachers give lectures, they do tell this story, but do you think the story they tell will be so cruel and direct? No, they will polish it, they will embellish it, and they will make everyone think that all this is the demon tiger's own doing. So the version I'm talking about is actually not the academy's version, but the ......"

"That virtual big brother?" Yi took it very smartly.

Tang Zheng's gaze dimmed.

After a long time, he finally said: "The story was left by Brother Xu, but the information can only be discovered by ourselves." There's what I need on that Tiger Roar Peak, no matter what...... I have to get it!"
