Chapter 51 Tiger Roaring Valley (3)

After dealing with the fur and other things, Tang Jie continued on the road.

Tiger Roaring Valley is a gourd mouth terrain that is narrow in the front and wide in the back. The more you go in, the wider it becomes. As an artificially opened valley, it occupies half of Qingyun Mountain. It is not only vast in area, but also complex in terrain. The hill is because there are mountains in the lake, there are valleys in the mountains, and there is a pattern of heaven and earth in the valley.

At this moment, Tang Jie was walking all the way, and had come to a pool at the foot of the mountain. Seeing that the water was clear, he stopped to drink some water with his hands, and checked to see if there were any spiritual plants worth picking nearby.

But it seems that there should have been here before, but they have all been taken away.

Tang Jie didn't care either. After drinking the water, he sat down beside a big rock, his head hanging down, wondering 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 a white-fronted tiger appearing on the top of the mountain in the distance.

The tiger was squatting on a boulder on the top of the mountain, looking at Tang Jie and Yiyi in his arms without blinking.

Although Yiyi hid in his bosom and did not show his head, at that moment, Tang Jie felt that the tiger's eyes seemed to have penetrated the cloth and saw through everything.

"Roar..." came the low roar of the tiger.

The sound is not loud, but thick and distant, spreading all over the valley.

Hearing the sound, Yiyi poked her head out and met the white-fronted tiger.

Little Yiyi didn't feel the aura of the tiger, nor did she feel scared, instead she asked Tang Jie:

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

"En, and it's a very powerful monster." Tang Jieen said, but his eyes stayed on the tiger without blinking.

"Then why doesn't it come chasing us?" Yi Yi was very curious. Along the way, whenever any monsters found Yi Yi, they would chase them desperately, so that they spent more time on the road than ordinary students. many.

"Because it can't come down." Tang Jie replied: "There is a formation on the top of the mountain, which traps it."

"Ah? Why is there a trap to trap it? Aren't all the monsters in Tiger Roaring Valley free?"

"This is the only exception... Yiyi, do you know how Tiger Roaring Valley got its name?"

Yi Yi was stunned: "Could it be because of this big tiger?"

Tang Jie nodded: "To be precise, it is because of its ancestors."

"Its ancestors?"

"En." Tang Jie nodded.

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

Tang Jie simply sat on a big rock, facing the tiger, and said loudly: "Yes, the Tiger Roaring Valley was actually the place where a demon tiger was imprisoned in the earliest days, and this mountain was its prison. Many Years ago, there used to be four great monsters in Xiyue College, the turtle, the crane, the tiger and the carp. That's how it is now."

"Oh..." Yiyi nodded her head to express her understanding: "Then what happened next?"

"Later?" Tang Jie smiled: "These four great monsters were originally the partners of Master Xiyue. Later, some of these seniors ascended to break through the world, some died, and some could not retreat. Without the master by his side, he simply stayed in the academy and became the great demon of the town courtyard. But one day, the demon tiger suddenly betrayed."

"Betrayed by the demon tiger?"

"En." Tang Jie nodded: "The demon tiger betrayed because it coveted a treasure of the Xiyue Sect. Later, the demon tiger stole the treasure and left, but was captured by the Xiyue Sect. In order to find out where the secret treasure is, I went to I imprisoned it on the Tiger Roaring Peak, imposed the cruelest punishment on it, and interrogated it every night. Every night, the mournful roar of the demon tiger would resound on the Tiger Roaring Peak, and it was named Tiger Roaring Peak afterwards.”

"Then what happened next?" Yiyi rested her chin and listened to Tang Jie's story.

"Later... the demon tiger never explained where the secret treasure it stole was, and Xiyue Academy failed to get it, so the demon tiger was locked up until it finally died of old age on this Tiger Roaring Peak. But it is not It only has itself, and it has a wife and children. After the demon tiger died, its wife and children were still imprisoned here,

Because the Xiyue faction believes that the demon tiger may have left the secret to its wife or children through blood or other means, they continue to imprison the descendants of the demon tiger here for interrogation, but they still cannot get what they want. Later, the Moon Cleaners completely gave up. They simply took the Tiger Roaring Peak as the center, opened up the Tiger Roaring Valley, and made it a training ground for the students. As for the Tiger Roaring Peak, it has become the final challenge area for the students..."

"So this tiger is the only high-grade monster!" Yiyi shouted, pointing at the tiger on the top of the mountain.

Tang Jie nodded and replied: "That's right, it is the only psychic high-grade monster in the Tiger Roaring Valley, and it is also a direct descendant of the monster tiger. It is locked here and can only walk on this mountain, and cannot go out of the peak, but Students can go in and out of the mountain at will to hunt and kill demon tigers."

For the students, the strength of the top-rank monster beasts is really too strong, so strong that if the monster tigers are allowed to walk freely in the valley, even with jade cards, they may not be able to save the lives of the students.

Because of this, the college detains the demon tiger alone, which can be regarded as giving the students the right to choose.

If you don't want to encounter high-grade monsters, it's fine if you don't go to the peak. Of course, if you reach the peak, then you are responsible for your own life.

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

"No." Tang Jie replied: "Every once in a while, the Xiyue Sect will catch a demon tiger from outside, mate with the demon tiger on Huxiao Mountain, and produce offspring so that they will not become extinct. Moon students are also strictly required, if they encounter tiger cubs, they must not be killed. If there is any violation, they will be expelled directly, or even executed! If the old monster tiger dies and the new monster tiger has not yet grown up, the Tiger Roaring Peak will be temporarily closed, waiting for others It grows up and then opens up. The other monsters in the Tiger Roaring Valley are changed every year. Anyway, as long as the strength is about the same, only the monster tiger on the Tiger Roaring Peak has not changed for hundreds of years. It is always the descendant of the monster tiger. It has continued from generation to generation. Since the millennium, this Tiger Roaring Peak has been stained red with tiger blood countless times, and there has never been a good end for a demon tiger. This is the punishment for that demon tiger... a disaster for future generations!"

As if hearing Tang Jie's words, the tiger on the top of the mountain whistled lowly, and the sound echoed in the valley, full of sadness.

"It's too scary." Yiyi was also terrified by Tang Jie's story.

After all, she is still young, and some things are still too cruel for her.

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

But Xiyue Academy does not hide these things.

Just like Tianzhudian taught the students to trust the Moon Sect, Hu Xiaofeng used another method to tell the students the fate of betrayal.

Tang Jie smiled and said, "It's cruel to the demon tiger, but why not to the students? Do you know how many students die every time you kill a demon tiger? High-grade monsters are never easy to kill. Rely on There are many people, students can certainly kill the demon tiger, but the demon tiger's counterattack can always drag some people into the water. Don't be superstitious about jade cards, the attack like the demon tiger, the average student is usually killed with one blow. Because of this, the vast majority of hunts and kills of monster tigers actually ended in failure. It was not because they couldn’t beat them, but because they were terrified, terrified, collapsed, and fled in the face of that tragic death..."

"Then they're still going? Is this demon tiger worth much?"

"Worth the money?" Tang Jie raised his brows: "Of course it is worth money. High-grade monsters are more valuable than middle- and low-grade monsters, but no matter how valuable they are, can they compare with their own lives? It's just that they are the only high-grade monsters. , for the students, whoever can kill it is equivalent to creating a brilliance... This is the greatest degree of glory that the Lingquan class can get, and to some extent it is even higher than the record of the Seven Heavens Palace. Only this one , is enough to make many people risk their lives. In addition, there is another saying that the secret treasure of cleaning the moon that the demon tiger stole back then has always been on this Tiger Roaring Peak, but no one has ever been able to find it. So there are some students who hope to reach the sky in one step and find the secret treasure. And to find the secret treasure, naturally they have to walk on the corpse of the monster tiger."

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

Tang Jie looked amused, pinched her little cheek and said: "Silly girl, how can a student find something that the Xiyue Sect has not found for hundreds of years? That secret treasure may have disappeared in the world long ago, so that the demon tiger can't find it at all." It is impossible to hand it over, so it has to be punished here for generations."

"Oh, I hate it, don't pinch your face!" Yiyi shouted dissatisfied.

"However..." Tang Jie suddenly changed his tone: "Although you can't get the secret treasure, it doesn't mean you can't get other gains. There are always some treasures that are actually there, right in front of everyone's eyes, but most people Just turn a blind eye."

"What else can I gain?"

Tang Jie smiled: "Think for yourself, Yiyi, use your brain to think about it. The information is in the story, it depends on whether you can find it, don't worry, you have enough time to think about it."

"Hmph, I don't want to think about it." Yiyi turned her head angrily: "You are a student of the academy, and the immortal master will tell you everything. Of course you understand everything. I can't guess what's so strange."

Tang Jieyouyou replied: "The masters will indeed tell this story when they are lecturing, but do you think the stories they tell will be so cruel and straightforward? No, they will embellish and embellish, and make everyone think that, All of this was caused by that demon tiger. So the version I am talking about is actually not the college version, but..."

"The big brother Xu?" Yiyi answered the question very cleverly.

Tang Jie's eyes dimmed.

After a long time, he finally said: "Brother Xu left the story, but we can only discover the information by ourselves. On that Tiger Roaring Peak, there is something I need, no matter what... I must get it!"
