Chapter 47 God's Will

Yongsui Mountain, Tiannian Peak.

This is the most central mountain peak in Yongsui Mountain. From here, you can see the sea of ​​clouds, dense forests, and a panoramic view of the surrounding scenery.

For the past month, every morning, Tang Jie just stood guard on the top of the peak, looking out of nowhere. It's a pity that let him comprehend, but he couldn't see the whole mountainous area. Even Yiyi mobilized all the plants, but he got nothing.

In the past few months, time has passed quickly, and Tang Jie's hope is getting smaller and smaller.

On this day, Tang Jie still sat on the top of the peak and looked into the distance, without seeing any movement.

He sighed softly.

Yi Yi pulled Tang Jie's clothes and said, "Brother, we can't find Bao'er, right?"

"Maybe." Tang Jie replied: "But it may also appear in front of us one day by itself."

"You think it's still alive?"

"I believe he's still alive."

Yiyi lowered her head and said nothing.

After a while, the little girl suddenly gritted her teeth and said, "It's all the fault of the Wei Patriarch, if it wasn't for him, Bao'er would not have disappeared, or let's go and destroy the Wei Family!"

Tang Jie pinched Yiyi's face: "Little girl, don't be so murderous. The Wei family is kind to me, so I can't attack the Wei family just because of this."

"Is this the end of the matter?"

Tang Jie said indifferently: "It doesn't matter whether it counts or not, God will judge for himself."

"God? What kind of judgment can God have?" Yiyi was puzzled.

But Tang Jie just said indifferently: "Yiyi, you go back to the Canglong Mansion and release the news, saying that I, Tang Jie, disappeared because of my beloved pet, and my life and death are unknown, which made me disheartened, and I have no intention of dealing with trivial matters in the world. Of course, I Tang Jie Jie is still a member of the Wei family, if the life and death of the Wei family is involved, I will still stand up."

"Ah?" Yiyi looked at Tang Jie in surprise.

She didn't understand why Tang Jie would do this in such a situation, but Tang Jie said: "Remember what I said, when you arrive at the Canglong Mansion, I will tell everyone verbatim, and let most of the cultivators in Lingzhou, Everyone in the family knows about this, do you understand?"

Yi Yi nodded blankly.

Tang Jie continued: "Do this well,

You just go to Stone City. I heard that the wife's mother is very old and will not live long, even if she uses the longevity pill, it will be useless. Go there and see how long the old man can last. If you can still support it for a while, I will go to Shaohua Mountain and find the head of the Yuanyang Sect, and tell me that I, Tang Jie, is asking for a life-sustaining pill on behalf of the old lady. As for the price, I can give it to him as much as he wants. If it is not enough, you will owe it first. "

Yi Yi was puzzled: "Although the life-extending pill can extend life, it can't solve the distress in the end, but the price is not cheap if it is delayed. The Wei family treats you like this, and you still help them like this?"

"You just do it." Tang Jie was still as calm as ever: "The third thing is that Mu Yi and I have a one-month appointment. After you finish this matter, go back to Xiyue College. When you see Mu Yi, tell There is no need to hide what happened to him here, and then he will come back."

"Just talk about what happened here, don't you need to say anything else?"

"Yes, nothing else needs to be said."

"Then what then?" Yiyi stared blankly at Tang Jie.

"Then..." Tang Jie whispered, "Then it depends on God's will."

On this day, Yiyi left Tiannian Peak, leaving only Tang Jie to continue searching in the mountains.

This search lasted for more than a month, but Tang Jie finally found nothing, so he had to leave.

When he left, Xiaohu was still sleeping in the underground cave; Xi Remnant had been away from the Wei Mansion for more than a month; Xiyue Sect finally completed the final statistics under the mediation of a group of disciples, and confirmed the contribution of Tang Jie and others. The name of robbery spread again, and the reward of 20 million spiritual coins also spread throughout Wenxin.

Correspondingly, a not-so-good gossip came out.

Some people said that Tang Jie and Wei Fu fell out.

The reason is that Tang Jie blatantly declared that he would ignore civil affairs - the biggest victim of this ignorance of civil affairs is undoubtedly the Weifu.

Someone well-informed was even more eloquent, saying that the reason why Tang Jie was like this was because the Weifu's rescue was ineffective at the beginning. Tang Jie was dissatisfied, but he didn't want to turn against each other and insult the master, so he could only deal with things passively.

The matter was well said, which made some people in the Wei Mansion panic.

Wei Danbo was furious, and said: "It's ridiculous! Regardless of whether it's true or not, even if it's true, without him, Tang Jie, there would still be my son Tian Chong in the Wei Manor. He is the true descendant of Guanri Peak! Besides, Tang Jie entered the school In eight years, why have you ever asked about various matters in the Wei Mansion? On the contrary, there have been many requests from the Wei Manor, why has my Wei Mansion ever treated him badly? The so-called ignoring it is purely inexplicable, and he has never paid attention to it! The government's business is all done by myself!"

This is correct, Tang Jie did not do anything for the business of the Wei Mansion. For example, Wei Tianzhi and Wu Xing also participated in the family business, but Tang Jie has not even completed the ten-year semester. If you want to join the Moon Sect, it is even more impossible to do things for the family.

The problem is that some people's value is not born by doing things.

What is the value of Tang Jie, Tang Jie himself does not know, his view is destined to have its limitations, it may be exaggerated or reduced.

Because of this, he chose to leave it to God's will to make the decision, and let the facts measure everything by themselves.

————————

Yuhua faction.

Han Tianji meditated with his eyes closed in the middle of the hall, with a young disciple standing in front of him.

"Has the matter been confirmed?" He asked without raising his head.

The Yuhua disciple replied: "It has been confirmed that the person who sent the news is a little girl. Judging from her appearance and speech, she should be the Yiyi next to Mr. Tang. In addition, we have also bought several servants of the Weifu to confirm The disappearance of Tang Jie's beloved pet is true, and the Wei Mansion did not act effectively on this matter."

Sitting on the left hand of Han Tianji was a beautiful woman in palace attire, who also spoke at this moment. "But the most important thing is that until a few days ago, Tang Jie still stayed in the Yongsui mountain area, which is only two hills away from my Yuhua sect. in this way."

Her name is Yuan Qiaojun, and she is Han Tianji's wife, and one of the Three Heavenly Hearts of the Yuhua School.

"Hmm." Han Tianji murmured softly, rubbing his chin, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

A middle-aged man next to his right hand said: "I don't know why the senior brother of the sect is so concerned about this matter. The left and right are just Tang Jie's troubles with the family he belongs to. Listen to his words and deeds. He is a member of the Wei family, so there is a saying that if the life and death of the Wei family is involved, he will still stand out."

Hearing this, Han Tianji laughed: "It would be great if it was so simple."

The middle-aged man hurriedly asked: "Does senior brother think that there is something hidden about this matter?"

Han Tianji said leisurely: "If you are really retreating passively, then why spread the word? If you don't care about sect affairs, Junior Brother Zuo, should you just find a place to hide? Or shout around, wishing that the whole world, including Qiu Shuyu and Shi Jingzhai, would know about it? Is the Yuhua faction going to lose another Tianxin?"

Junior Brother Zuo was speechless, and Han Tianji added: "By the way, I didn't forget to say something when I notified: As long as it doesn't involve the life and death of the Yuhua Sect, I have nothing to do with it."

The middle-aged beautiful woman covered her mouth and smiled lightly: "Speaking of which, the current Shimen sect still exists."

Existence in name only, that is also existence!

Junior Brother Zuo suddenly realized: "It turns out that Tang Jie is causing trouble for the Wei family!"

"It may not be a cause of disaster." Han Tianji shook his head again: "After all, the Wei family is just a family of mortals, not a sect of cultivating immortals. Cultivators put strength first, so they often meet each other in life and death. Ordinary people put money as the most important thing, so business disputes Endless."

"If that's the case, then it's nothing." Junior Brother Zuo said disdainfully. As a cultivator, he naturally disdains ordinary gold and silver.

"Normally, it's nothing." Han Tianji said with a smile.

"Huh? What's the meaning of this, Brother Sect Leader?" Junior Brother Zuo looked at Han Tianji in puzzlement.

Han Tianji didn't answer, but just looked at his wife: "Qiaojun once had a pet dog, you know the love of pets best, you might as well tell your junior brother about it."

Yuan Qiaojun gave her husband a blank look, and replied lazily: "What can I say? Back then, Daddy devoted himself to cultivating and had no time to accompany me. I was deep in the mountains alone, bored and lonely. You gave me a puppy that day. I feed it. Since then, I have regarded this dog as my life, named it Zhen'er, and never leave my body on weekdays. When I see someone who eats dog meat, I hate it."

Junior brother Zuo was a latecomer and didn't know that Yuan Qiaojun still had such things, he was surprised: "Senior sister actually loves dogs Ruosi, and even cares about other people eating dog meat? No wonder you never ate dog meat in your life."

Yuan Qiaojun rolled his eyes at him: "If you don't keep a dog, you don't understand the heart of a dog owner."

The Zuo junior brother was distraught and indignant: "You don't eat dog meat, you don't know how delicious it is!"

Yuan Qiaojun immediately stared, but it was Han Tianji who stopped him: "Don't get too far."

Yuan Qiaojun finally took a breath, and said: "However, Zhen'er is just an ordinary dog ​​with a limited lifespan. Even if I use up all the elixir for it, it will only live for thirty years and finally die."

An ordinary dog ​​usually only lives about ten years old. Zuo Shidi heard that making a dog live to thirty years old is like extending a person's life to three hundred years old. I sighed in my heart, but dared not speak.

Yuan Qiaojun continued: "After Zhen'er died, I was sad for many days. From then on, I didn't want to keep a dog anymore. I became disheartened. Instead, I realized my faction's idea of ​​lifelessness, and my strength has improved by leaps and bounds."

Junior Brother Zuo heard that she was able to understand the law because of a dog, so he only felt that life was gloomy, the world was difficult, and people were not as good as dogs.

It was Han Tianji who brought the topic back to the right track: "I said this just to let you know that Tang Jie was probably extremely angry because of Wei Danbai's loss of his love tiger. I’m afraid I can understand a lot of things I’ve done.”

If Junior Brother Zuo realized something: "Brother means..."

Han Tianji replied: "Tang Jie was born in the Wei family and received favors from the Wei family. Although he has paid back, he is still a member of the Wei family. No matter how generous his rewards are, no matter how ruthless Wei Danbai's behavior is, It can't be a reason for him to turn around and kill the Wei family! So the only thing he can do is to be negative, that is, not to die for the Wei family. This is also understandable. You also have to be disheartened. But this is only from a rational point of view. If it is from an emotional point of view...Qiaojun, if Zhener was killed by someone back then, how would you treat that person?"

Yuan Qiaojun stared wide-eyed: "Who dares? I'll fight him!"

Han Tianji said leisurely: "I think Tang Jie must have wanted to fight Wei Danbai at that time."

Junior Brother Zuo completely understood: "It's a pity that he can't do this after all. There are many things in this world, and the reason and emotion can only be chosen."

Han Tianji said: "Tang Jie chose reason, but regretted emotion. If someone does what he wants to do but can't do at this time, he will be very grateful."

"Senior Brother Mingjian!" The left junior brother's eyes suddenly brightened, and then he thought for a while and said: "But Tang Jie is just a student who has not yet started, is it worth putting so much effort to help him?"

"A student who hasn't started yet?" Han Tianji laughed: "It's this student who hasn't started yet, who turned his backhand into a cloud, killed Gu Changqing, and wiped out Yingtang; It's a true biography; it's still this student who shined brightly at the Xianyuan meeting, and now the Shimen sect has been wiped out, and tens of millions of funds have been acquired. Junior brother, don't say that you couldn't do what he did back then, even now, you can't do it To his success?"

Junior Brother Zuo nodded awkwardly.

Han Tianji then said: "Besides, it's just making things difficult for a small mortal family. Do you need to make any effort? If you don't do such a lucrative business, what are you doing?"

Junior brother Zuo was convinced: "Senior brother is wise!"

Although Han Tianji didn't think exactly the same as Tang Jie, but there was one thing he guessed right, that is, Tang Jie did see this possibility.

In other words, he himself is also intentionally or unintentionally turning the possibility into reality.

—————————————

No matter in which era, expansion cannot be solved with money.

In the ancient earth era, the expansion of merchants was closely related to the protection/umbrella that bureaucrats could provide, while in the Qixia world, it was directly related to the scope of influence of cultivators.

Having a spiritual disciple means dominating a town, and having a spiritual master can affect the city, Tianxin is the state, Zifu is the country, and Xiantai is the boundary.

This kind of thing is not a fixed rule, but it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Everyone silently abides by it. It may be okay to go beyond it occasionally. If the steps are too big, you have to be careful.

The Wei family employs spiritual masters, so buyers and sellers can spread all over the Canglong Mansion. It is considered a good big family in the Canglong Mansion, but just like this, they dare not step out of the boundaries of the Canglong Mansion easily.

It wasn't until Wei Tianchong became a true legend that the expansion of the Wei family suddenly increased, and began to spread to the entire Lingzhou area, and even set foot in a small area in the Li country, but the main business direction was still in Lingzhou.

This is mainly because, although Wei Tianchong is not Tianxin yet, as Yan Changfeng's apprentice, his influence is comparable to ordinary Tianxin, and Tang Jie has become famous several times. The ten-year period expires after the order is obtained, so it is basically regarded as a prefecture-level family by default.

From this aspect, how big a family can expand depends directly on how many cultivators it has support. If you don't have enough strength to develop yourself into a behemoth, you will easily become fat in the eyes of others. This is why cultivators are important-they are like the army to the country, where the iron hoof steps, it is the source of wealth Endless land!

But now, an army is about to disarm.

A most powerful ace army is coming back to the field!

This undoubtedly touched the hearts of many people.

Unlike Han Tianji who saw through the mystery and took the opportunity to sell well, most people's thinking is actually much simpler. When the news of Tang Jie came, what they understood was one thing:

One of the two pillars supporting the Wei family fell down!

Doing business is like a high-rise building. The higher the floor, the deeper the foundation needed, the thicker the pillars used to support, and the heavier the load.

On this occasion of expansion, a pillar is suddenly missing, and the expansion that was originally caused by this is doomed to rebound.

Interestingly, the Gu family was the first to rebound. At that time, Tang Jie hadn't even left Yongsui Mountain.

Weifu study.

Sitting in front of the case, Wei Danbai looked gloomy, and said to a middle-aged man in green robe standing in front of him: "Say it again!"

The middle-aged man was Wei Die's father, Wei Qingsong, he said unhurriedly: "Gu Chongxuan said that the head of the Gu family has suddenly suffered a serious illness, please delay the delivery."

"Crack!" Gu Danbai slapped the book case with a palm: "Why did the scheduled delivery date suddenly change? My ancient family has prepared for this for a long time, mobilizing countless human and financial resources, just for this day. He said patriarch Seriously ill, the three bodyguards, five casinos, and fourteen shops are all gone?"

Wei Qingsong smiled wryly: "Gu Liangde's immortal body has always been in good health, how could he suddenly become seriously ill, and it's just an excuse in the end, most likely because of Tang..."

He didn't continue, but Wei Danbo already understood what he meant: "You mean, the Gu family thinks that without Tang Jie, we can't do anything to them, and start to go back on the deal we made before?"

"Probably so." Wei Qingsong said.

Wei Danbai said angrily: "This is crossing the river and tearing down the bridge!"

At the beginning, the Gu family sold goods for the Shimen sect, but after the incident, the Gu family inevitably became known as a collaborator and treason. Finally, they were decisive and pushed out the person in charge in time to act as a scapegoat, and then interceded through the Wei family. The Wei family didn't want to get too involved with the Gu family because they had lent business, so as not to drag themselves into the water at that time, so after receiving a large amount of benefits, they used Tang Jiewei Tianchong to turn around the matter.

At the beginning, the Gu family gave a lot of benefits, except for a large sum of gold, silver and jewelry, it was these agreed shops. These days, the people of the Wei family have already made preparations to take inventory of the shops and prepare to receive them. Unexpectedly, the Gu family regretted not selling them when things came to an end.

Wei Qingsong said: "It's not the first time people from the Gu family have crossed rivers and demolished bridges. When they lose power, they can kneel down and call grandpa for you, and when they gain power, they can lift themselves up to the sky. Yijue, they can do things that others can’t do without shame. After so many years, didn’t they rely on this to become the Five Greats? Now it’s just history repeating itself.”

Wei Danbai's face turned livid: "They are so sure, without Tang Jie, what can we do to them?"

Wei Qingsong replied: "That may not be the case. The people of the Gu family didn't say they won't sell it, they just said they would hold off for a while. From this point of view, they are not sure if we can do anything about them."

"You are not sure, but you dare to be so arrogant?"

Wei Qingsong replied: "It's not necessarily arrogance. It's just about the foundation of the ancient family. They can't help but take risks. After all, the courage to protect their own property is always greater than that of robbing other people's property. What's more, they still have room for it. This move is still a test. Mainly. What is really worrying is that the news of taking over the Gu family's property has already been spread, and if the matter cannot be handled properly, I'm afraid..."

"Afraid of what?"

"There are so many imitators!"

Hearing this, Wei Danbai also took a deep breath.

He looked at his second brother: "What do you mean?"

Wei Qingsong replied: "Let Tian Chong make a move, and teach the Gu family a lesson with the momentum of thunder."

"But the Gu family just refused to sell the store, so we asked Tian Chong to do it. If it gets out, it's not that the Gu family turned back on what it said, but my Wei family took it by force!"

"That's something that can't be helped. It's not enough to deter Xiao Xiao. They must know that without Tang Jie, we still have Wei Tianchong."

Wei Danbo immediately said: "Then why not wait for those Xiao Xiaoxiao to jump out and teach them a lesson, the reputation of the Wei family cannot be lost, and the teacher is famous!"

"I'm afraid it will be too late by then."
