Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 49: Reward

Chaoyue City is a city located in the north of Lingzhou. It is small in area and is located near mountains and rivers. It is a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters.

The Zheng family is a well-known family in Chaoyue City, with a scholarly family background. Although it is not as prestigious as the five major families of Canglong Mansion, it still has the simplicity of a century-old family.

The Zheng Family Courtyard.

Standing under an evergreen tree, looking at the dense branches and leaves, Zheng Shufeng's eyes were full of longing and wistfulness, and he couldn't help but murmured: "I remember when I first got married, under the evergreen tree, I cried bitterly to say goodbye. In the blink of an eye, Twenty years later, it remains evergreen. Things have changed and people have changed. Now that I am back, I don’t know when we will see each other again.”

Gently caressing the old evergreen tree, his tone was full of sigh.

"Listening to my aunt's tone, why do I seem to have the intention to leave?" came a clear and refined voice.

Looking back, it was a young girl walking towards this side.

Her name is Zheng Huajun, the daughter of Zheng Shufeng's younger brother. Because she is the youngest in the family, she is also the most favored by her family.

When Zheng Shufeng got married, Zheng Huajun was not yet born. When they came back this time, they knew each other for the first time, but they were quite attached to each other. Zheng Shufeng also loved this little niece very much. Hearing her words at this moment, he squeezed out a smile and said: "The Wei family has been busy lately. I have to go back and have a look. I will be back in a few days. I am still preparing the carriage. I haven't left yet." I said goodbye to each room, but your long ears heard it first. By the way, have you visited your grandma?"

"Yes!" Zheng Huajun nodded seriously: "Grandma is in great spirits today and drank most of the bowl of porridge. Auntie, that medicine is really effective."

Zheng Shufeng said calmly: "That's natural. Shaohua Mountain's life-extending pill can save you even the dead. Just one pill is worth tens of thousands of spiritual coins..."

Zheng Huajun lightly covered his lips and said with a low smile: "The cultivators in my aunt's family are not only loyal, but they are also very capable."

Zheng Shufeng sighed leisurely: "He is very capable, otherwise we would not have allowed him, a boy who has only been in the government for three years, to become a servant. However, his loyalty must be discounted."

Zheng Huajun suddenly flashed a pair of big eyes and said: "What my aunt said made Hua Jun confused. Why did Tang Jie send someone to send the elixir, but my aunt was not happy and worried, and even felt that he was not loyal enough." What?"

Zheng Shufeng stretched out her finger and lightly tapped Zheng Huajun's forehead: "Damn girl, don't pretend to be stupid with me. If you can't even understand this, you are not worthy of my treating you differently."

Zheng Huajun covered his mouth with a handkerchief and continued to laugh: "The old lady was almost unable to hold on anymore, but now she can persist for a long time after taking this medicine. This is a good thing, but the Wei family is in troubled times now. My aunt wants to accompany grandma, but she can't go back home to do business. I really don't know if Tang Xianren did it intentionally or not. But it seems that even if my aunt is criticized for being unfilial, she has to rush back first."

"I'm just explaining some things, it's not like I won't come back." Zheng Shufeng glanced at her niece: "And you just said it, so what do you mean by smiling like that?"

"Is it possible that I'm still crying?" Zheng Huajun put down his handkerchief, took Zheng Shufeng's arm and said, "My aunt is the daughter-in-law of the Wei family, so she cares about the Wei family. But I don't even know what the people of the Wei family look like. I have never seen it before. For our Zheng family, grandma's body is much more important than that of the Wei family. As long as my grandma is in good health, I have no time to care about other people's situations. Besides... if the Wei family's misfortune I wouldn’t mind trading it for the peace and prosperity of my Zheng family.”

This last sentence was said in a very low voice, but Zheng Shufeng still heard it. His face darkened and he gave her a hard poke: "What nonsense are you talking about, you **** girl? Carefully let others listen."

Zheng Huajun smiled and said: "There are only my aunt and I under this evergreen tree. Where are the outsiders?"

"Heaven knows and the earth knows, you know and I know. Moreover, the magic of immortals is mysterious and inexplicable. How can you, a mere mortal, be able to understand it?"

"Auntie knows that she is afraid, so why bother to go against the cultivators?" Zheng Huajun said leisurely.

Zheng Shufeng's face immediately darkened: "Hua Jun, do you know what you are talking about?"

Zheng Huajun lowered his head and replied: "Huajun is rude, please forgive me. But even though Huajun is a woman, he can still see the deep meaning behind the delivery of medicine. Auntie Lan is wise and wise, and both houses know it." , then Tang Xianren, who has been in the Wei Mansion for three years, will only know better than Hua Jun, so how can he think that the purpose of delivering medicine can be deceived by his aunt? I am afraid that he had no intention of hiding it from his aunt from the beginning."

Zheng Shufeng was stunned: "You mean..."

Zheng Huajun said calmly: "You always have to make a choice."

Zheng Shufeng's whole body was shaken: "Are you crazy? You actually said such words, do you know that you are asking me to betray the Wei family!"

"How can we call it betrayal?" Zheng Huajun looked aggrieved: "This is clearly because my aunt is extremely filial to her mother and has no time to do anything else."

Zheng Shufeng angrily rebuked: "It's ridiculous. The Wei family has always been my husband's family, and Danbai is my husband after all. How can I watch my husband and family fall into a state of utter doom?"

Zheng Huajun chuckled: "If Tang Immortal wants the Wei family to be destroyed, he can do it with just a few gestures. Why bother?"

Zheng Shufeng remained silent.

Zheng Huajun already smiled and said: "My aunt is a sensible person. In fact, the Wei family is destined to have no major problems, but there is just a little trouble at the moment. Now that my aunt is here, everything has nothing to do with her. If she goes back, it may not be What kind of help it can do to the Wei family, but it makes Tang Jie feel chilled. I'm afraid it's not worth the gain. If it makes you angry, it will attract a stronger attack, I'm afraid it will only add disaster."

"You..."

"Actually, Hua Jun especially remembers how heartbroken and anxious his aunt was when the incident was first reported, and she even wrote a letter to his uncle. Hua Jun didn't know what his aunt said, but Hua Jun knew that his uncle definitely didn't listen to his aunt. Since my uncle doesn't care about my aunt's opinion, even if you rush back now, how much effect will it have? In any case, the head of the Wei family is always my uncle and not you!"

Zheng Shufeng was heartbroken after what she said.

Yes, why didn’t she write a letter to urge her husband before this?

Unfortunately, Wei Danbai did not listen to her. After the first problem, instead of remedying the problem, he withdrew the team again. The first time you do this, you can call him stupid, but the second time you can only say that he is too conceited. He only knows the difference between master and servant, but forgets the difference between immortals and mortals.

When the incident came out again, Zheng Shufeng was so angry that she was speechless. At that time, she knew that things were probably not getting better, and the only thing she could do was to pray that Tang Jie would at least have some conscience and not to harm the Wei family because of this incident. A small punishment or a big punishment will suffice until you are beaten to the point of no return.

The result was beyond her expectation. Tang Jie did not retaliate, but the influence of Tang Jie still implicated the Wei family and plunged the Wei family into endless trouble.

In Zheng Shufeng's view, these troubles are actually nothing. As long as he can bear his hatred, transfer the shop, and stop external expansion, it will be solved quickly. Even if Wei Danbai is reluctant to let go, with Zheng Shufeng's influence in the Wei family, he can still solve it. It was carried out by force.

But a bottle of medicine from Tang Jie made Zheng Shufeng understand what he meant.

He did not want Zheng Shufeng to go back at this time.

This bottle of medicine is both repayment to Zheng Shufeng and a blow to Wei Danbai.

"So..." Zheng Huajun said in a melodious voice: "Instead of going back now to advise my uncle, why not stay here to be filial to grandma, and go back when it's time to go back. By then, aunt, you can turn the tide and save the Wei family from danger. , wouldn’t it be better?”

Zheng Shufeng's eyes gradually turned cold: "You are setting me up for injustice!"

"On the contrary, this is aunt's opportunity. The Wei family must have aunt's leadership in order to become a big success!"

These words were like a muffled thunder exploding in Zheng Shufeng’s ears. She was so shocked that her whole body trembled and she screamed:

"This is absolutely impossible! I am a woman, and the Wei family also has an old master and a second master. When will it be my turn as a female to take charge of the family?"

After speaking, I realized that I had lost my temper and my voice dropped.

Zheng Huajun pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Expert times require extraordinary people to take charge. In fact, it's not that my aunt has never thought of this, but she just thinks about the deep love between husband and wife and doesn't want to think about it. Because of this, Hua Jun worked hard You have to say these words to violate taboos. Auntie, it would be really good for the Wei family if you don’t go back now!"

Zheng Shufeng was silent.

Standing under the evergreen tree, Zheng Shufeng said nothing, but her chest rose and fell violently.

It can be seen that her mood is very contradictory at the moment. Even Zheng Huajun next to her became inexplicably nervous when she saw this.

At this moment, a maidservant hurriedly came over and saluted Zheng Shufeng: "Madam, the carriage is ready."

Zheng Shufeng woke up from a dream, looked back at the maid, then at Zheng Huajun, and walked outside involuntarily.

Zheng Huajun watched her walking out step by step. Seeing her back gradually fading, she finally shouted:

"Auntie, think twice!"

Zheng Shufeng's body suddenly stiffened.

She stood there, looking straight into the distance, and then said for a while: "I heard that the Shaoyang Temple in Yanzi Mountain makes great wishes, and always ensures peace and prosperity in the place. Now that the old lady is ill, she is going to ask for help. I wish."

As he spoke, he walked forward.

Hearing this, Zheng Huajun finally showed a deep smile on his face.

After taking a few steps, Zheng Shufeng stopped again and said without looking back: "I have heard that there is a female Hua Jun in the Zheng family who is born smart. When I saw you that day, I thought you were just reading poetry and books diligently and understanding. You just have more truths and you are more flexible. I didn’t expect you to be so wise. You can even think of things that adults can’t think of. If I didn’t know where you came from, I would think that some big shot came to teach me face to face. What an opportunity."

Zheng Huajun's face changed slightly, but in the end he just bowed: "After all, I can't compare to my aunt. I hope my aunt will go and come back soon."

Zheng Shufeng responded and then went out.

Seeing Zheng Shufeng's back disappear, Zheng Huajun walked back.

When I came to my small courtyard, by the pond not far away, a young man was sitting in front of the pond, playing a bamboo flute.

Zheng Huajun came behind the young man and saluted: "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life!"

The sound of the flute was melodious and stopped after a moment.

"Well done." The young man turned around and saw that it was Mu Yi.

Throwing out a pamphlet, Mu Yi said: "If you can be promoted to Spirit Lake within three years, you can come to Qijue Sect to find me."

"Thank you so much, Master Immortal!" Zheng Huajun bowed to the end.

When he stood up again, Mu Yi was gone.

After leaving Zheng Mansion, Mu Yi turned the bamboo flute in his hand and walked forward. When he came to a fish pond, he saw a man standing not far away with his hands behind his back. It was Tang Jie, who was squatting not far away from him. There was a person standing there, but it was Shi Jingzhai, who was doing arithmetic with his fingers. Yiyi was riding on Shi Jingzhai's neck, as if he were riding a horse.

Mu Yi walked over and said, "The matter has come to an end..."

Tang Jie waved his hand: "Don't tell me whether something will work or not. I didn't ask you to do anything. Everything you do has nothing to do with me."

Mu Yi was stunned, then smiled and said: "Yes, yes, yes, you didn't ask me to do anything. I made my own decisions, was self-righteous, sentimental, and pretentious. I insisted on meddling in other people's affairs. Make you laugh."

"It's good that you know." Tang Jie replied seriously.

Mu Yi was depressed: "Isn't it a bit pretentious to say that you are like this? You clearly hope that the Wei Mansion will be unlucky in your heart, and you deliberately expose clues to provoke others, but you pretend to have nothing to do with it. Such behavior is a bit too much. Aren’t you happy? A real man knows his grudges clearly. How good would it be to be as happy as my senior brother?"

Tang Jie smiled and said: "It is easy to say that grudges are clear. Those who can be clear will naturally be clear. It is the hard to be clear that requires a lot of effort. I don't deny that I do have the intention of watching the Wei family's jokes, but Speaking of causing trouble, at best it is to make a process that may have taken three to five years to be completed now break out within thirty to fifty days."

Mu Yi nodded: "That's true. Even without your actions, these troubles in the Wei Mansion will still come, but they won't be as unified as they are now. But the power of a concentrated burst, this It is much more powerful than coming slowly."

Tang Jie sneered: "That's Wei Danbai's business. I have no obligation to think about it for him."

Mu Yi clapped his hands and laughed: "Look, look, his true colors are revealed. You just want to make him step down."

Tang Jie replied: "Just remove that whole word."

"Yes, yes, you just thought about it but didn't do it. It's just that you expressed this idea, and what the Xian family wants is what mortals have to work hard to achieve! Those who deal with the Wei family at this time, I’m not offending you, but trying to please you!”

Mu Yi's words are sonorous and have a sound when they fall to the ground, and in one sentence he expresses the true meaning of Tang Dynasty's actions.

Youyou sighed, Tang Jie said nothing, turned and left.

Mu Yi chased after him: "Hey, where are you going?"

"Go back to the academy and treat your injuries."

"I just ran here from the college, and you want me to go back to the college?"

"How much are the rags you brought worth? If you don't go back and collect the reward to buy medicine, how will you be cured?"

"What a loud tone. Sure enough, the nouveau riche is extraordinary. What about the Wei family?"

"Originally it was just God's decision, but when you said it like that, it seems like I was instructing God's will. In this case, it is better to leave early to avoid suspicion and give the Wei Mansion some time."

"Then the Wei Mansion will have short-term pain turn into long-term pain again? This will not be good for them."

"Look, it's not good for me to intervene, nor is it bad for me not to intervene?"

Mu Yi laughed: "It's my fault."

Tang Jie thought for a while and said: "Actually, you are right. If you don't want to get involved too deeply, you always have to wait patiently. It's because I was a little anxious before, but I wasn't detached enough. It's better to take advantage of the situation now. If anything, it’s better to get away as soon as possible. Anyway, if anything happens to the Wei family, Shi Meng will tell me."

Mu Yi praised: "It's best, just let them fend for themselves for a while."

Ignoring the busy schedule in the Wei Mansion, the two of them returned directly to the academy.

Mu Yi was not allowed to enter the academy without permission, so Tang Jie asked him and Shi Jingzhai to wait in the student forest while he went back to the academy to see Xie Fengtang.

Entering Xiwang Pavilion, Tang Jie saw Xie Fengtang concentrating on drawing talisman.

Xie Fengtang’s talisman is also considered unique among the Xiyue Sect. What he is drawing at the moment is a Happy Traveling Talisman. Xiaoyaoyou is a rare and superior space spell. It is said that after using it, you can teleport thousands of miles away instantly. It shows the practitioner's ability to reach the sky. However, it is not easy to master. Even Tianxin Zhenren cannot easily practice it, let alone control it. Matched.

At this moment, Xie Fengtang was painting seriously, and Tang Jie was watching carefully from the side.

With the injection of spiritual energy, the rune patterns lit up and disappeared one after another. I don’t know how long it took, and suddenly they suddenly became bright and darkened again at the same time.

Xie Fengtang laughed, picked up the talisman and said, "It's finally done!"

Tang Jie took a step forward: "Congratulations to the master of the hospital, you have become an immortal talisman."

Xie Fengtang looked at Tang Jie and said gratefully: "I spent sixty days drawing this lucky charm. I spent more than 1,400 yuan on the talisman paper, but it only became two pieces. I didn't expect that I would just draw it when you came back. It became the third one, I guess it’s all thanks to you.”

Tang Jie hurriedly said: "It is the master of the hospital who has great blessings. I dare not take credit."

"Don't you dare?" Xie Fengtang snorted and shook the talisman in his hand: "I think you are very brave. Fighting alone against the Qi Jue Sect, forcing Wang Jue Mie away, criticizing the Shi Sect, and even destroying other people's families. After everything was rummaged through, we had a roll-making party, what else do you think you are afraid of doing?"

Tang Jie smiled and said: "This disciple is dedicated to the sect and has no selfish motives."

Xie Fengtang looked at his playful smile and originally wanted to scare him again, but after thinking about it, he knew that scaring him would not scare him, so she couldn't help laughing out loud: "What a good boy, you are really not afraid of a newborn calf. Hu, please do a good job in the mining exploration mission together. I forced you to solve a shocking case. It is indeed a terrible future."

"It's all thanks to the guidance of the director."

"I don't need you to flatter me. Are you here for the rewards from Pai?"

Tang Jie scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "No way, I just came here to see the master of the hospital."

Xie Fengtang said calmly: "That's good, it just so happens that the money hasn't come out yet."

"Huh?" Tang Jie was dumbfounded: "It's been more than two months, why haven't you come down yet?"

Xie Fengtang chuckled: "You said it wasn't for the reward?"

Tang Jie blushed: "The master of the courtyard is clear."

Xie Fengtang laughed loudly and said, "I'm not kidding you anymore. The rewards from the faction came out ten days ago. Everyone else has taken what they can. Only you and Shi Meng are still holding on to me. ”

As he spoke, Xie Fengtang took out a small box and threw it into Tang Jie's hands: "Take a look for yourself."

There are three items in the box.

A spiritual money note with a face value of 3.75 million.

A key, which means that the door to the ninth floor of Tianyi Pavilion will be opened again.

A copy of the stamp book, with Tang Jie's name written on one page and the following: Contribution points of one thousand.

Before he became an official disciple of Xiyue~IndoMTL.com~ Tang Jie had already made a thousand contributions to the sect, which was unprecedented in the entire history of Xiyue Sect. As for the ninth floor of the pavilion that day, it was the second time it was opened for Tang Jie. Although Tang Jie has mastered a large number of Shenxiao's secret methods, there is at least the Purple Jade Heart Method that he has not yet read.

The three things placed in front of Tang Jie were all coveted existences, but now that they were really in front of Tang Jie, Tang Jie felt extremely calm.

At that moment, what appeared in his mind was the figure of Xiaohu.

The joy brought by the huge success was diluted a lot because of Xiaohu's disappearance, which also made his performance far less rude than Xie Fengtang thought. Even Xie Fengtang couldn't help but secretly praise him, this boy is in a great state of mind.

Tang Jie didn’t know that this accident made Xie Fengtang appreciate him even more. The next moment, Xie Fengtang threw the Happy Travel Talisman to Tang Jie and said, "This is for you, it's mine. Let me give you a personal reward."
