The sun sets in the west.

  Tang Zheng and three others were already standing on a small path in the outskirts of the city.

  "Look, following this road north is the way to Tangjiabao Village in Wulong Town. There are no forks in the road. If you walk for six or seven hours, you'll almost be there."

  Tang Zheng nodded and snapped his fingers: "Thanks."

  "Hmph, I didn't want to tell you anyway." Ah Chu still looked sulky.

  "So, farewell for now, may our paths cross again!" Tang Zheng directly ignored him, nodded slightly to the old man and turned away.

  After Tang Zheng walked far away, Ah Chu still stood there in a daze, and after a long time, she blinked her big shiny eyes and asked: "He... did he just leave like that?"

  The old man nodded with a smile: "That's right."

  "Ah, ah, ah, is he listening to me seriously? I said, six or seven hours! "Azi was so angry that she walked back and forth," He's not planning to return to Wulong Town, hire a horse carriage or something?"

  "It can't be undone." The old man sighed.

  Wulong Town is about to be turned upside down by the Blue Family.

  Now go back and hire a horse carriage, where can you get there in time?

  "But in six or seven hours, he's going to... just walk over on foot?"

  "Probably." The old man affectionately patted Aruo's head.

  Suddenly, his breathing stopped.

  He looked up in confusion and gazed at the withered hand of the old man.

  Even when an old man patted his head, he could feel it in advance!

  However, when that person touched his head, he really didn't notice at all!

  It was as if everything had been non-existent before that hand touched his head!

  "Right, I haven't even asked his name yet." Ah Chu thought gloomily, it seemed that they could only wait for the so-called "destined to meet again".

  ……

  There is no clear physical strength data in the game, and controlling physical strength becomes a purely experiential thing.

  But this was not enough to stump Tang Zheng.

  Whether to hurry along, take a leisurely stroll or stop and rest is not a big issue.

  What he really wants to complain about is - the quality of the shoes is too poor!

  He waited until he reached the gate of Tangjia Village, and his two big toes were already poking out, making him look even more disheveled.

  It's getting late at night.

  Tang Zheng felt that it was already past midnight.

  However, inside Tangjia Bu, the lights were still shining brightly.

  The three-men-high dark red gate was open, but as soon as Tang approached, he was immediately blocked by two household guards: "Halt! What are you doing here?"

  Tang Zheng arrived at this time and in this state, it was really inexplicable. So, he simply didn't explain and handed over Tian Meng's jade pendant with a lack of energy.

  As soon as the precious jade pendant was brought out, although the two family servants still wouldn't let him in directly, their gaze became much kinder. One of them politely bowed to him: "Wait a moment, I'll go inform!" and then went inside.

  After waiting for about a quarter of an hour...

  A girl jumped out from inside the Tang family mansion.

  The girl had a high ponytail, wearing a very short top with no buttons, revealing a tight black undershirt inside. Her just-filled chest was firmly blocked by the undershirt, and her lower body was not the kind of skirt commonly seen in Wulong Town by Tang Zheng, but a pair of long pants with only a slight hem.

  Her slender waist was exposed at the junction of her clothes, and a bright red thistle flower could be clearly seen next to her navel.

  "Miss!" The two servants bowed simultaneously.

  The girl's lips were red and moist, just like strawberries after a light spring rain.

  That unique youthful aura, as soon as she opened her mouth, flew towards Tang Zheng: "Indeed worthy of being a husband who dares to come to Wulong Town to teach, really has character, actually visiting at this time!"

  At midnight, no matter whose door you knock on, getting a comment "having personality" is already being polite.

  "May I ask, where did you come from?" The girl led Tang Zheng in while sizing him up, her eyes finally falling on his feet. "You... got into a fight with someone on the way here?"

  "I came from the East, to the Great Tang... cough, no, I'm here on behalf of a friend." Tang Zheng forced himself to cut off halfway through his sentence. "I walked here from Wulong Town and my shoes are broken."

  "Hahaha...…", the girl burst out laughing, her eyebrows seeming to burn with fierce flames, "You... came from... Wulong Town? Hahaha..."

  "How is it? Isn't it very powerful?" Tang Zheng also laughed and said.

  "How stupid can you be!" The girl spat out, "Can't even hire a carriage?"

  Tang Zhengshuai's smile, which lasted less than three seconds, froze on his face once again.

  "Huh, you don't have money?" The girl suddenly seemed to realize something.

  "There's... " Tang Zheng thought about the purple gold waistband on his own, it was simply a small treasury, no, it was a big treasury. However, thinking again, no matter how much money there was, he couldn't take it out and it would be useless. He could only nod his head in embarrassment and admit, "Alright, yes, I don't have any money!"

  "Poor thing!" The girl stood on tiptoes and patted his head, just like he had patted Ah Dun's head earlier. "Don't worry, from now on in Tang Family Manor, as long as I have a mouthful of rice, you will never go hungry! Our Tang Family Manor respects scholars the most!"

  "...Tang Zheng, who can talk non-stop for two hours, was actually speechless in front of a little girl."

  Tangjia Fortress is located in the northern suburbs, but it does not occupy a large area of land.

  Before they had finished speaking, they arrived at the main hall.

  In the main hall were two middle-aged men, and when Tang entered, he vaguely heard them talking about the Huilan Mountain Villa's flower field.

  It wasn't until Tang Zheng walked in that the two middle-aged men stopped talking.

  "Has Tian Fuzi arrived?" One of the middle-aged men looked at Tang Zheng and said, "Seems...taller...and a bit fatter?"

  "He's grown even taller and his skin has darkened..." Another middle-aged man said, "He's been tempered!"

  Tang Zheng stroked his forehead: "That..."

  "Quickly, quickly, oh dear, it's been five years since I last saw you. Alas, no scholars are willing to come to Wulong Town, and you're willing to come to Tangjiabao to teach, that's really great..."

  "Hmm, but..."

  "Little sugar, aren't you going to pour tea?"

  "Two of them! Wait a minute..." Tang Zheng stopped the fiery girl from pouring tea, "Tian Meng hasn't grown taller or stronger, his skin is still as pale, and as for experience... his fighting skills are still just as terrible..." Looking at the changing expressions on the two men's faces, he managed to squeeze out a summary, "In short, I am not Tian Meng."

  As he spoke, Tang Zheng took out Tian Meng's letter from his pocket and handed it over to the two middle-aged men.

  Those two middle-aged men looked at each other, then raised their heads, and the smile was slightly awkward. One of them cupped his hands: "Really sorry, we... haven't seen Tian Meng for a long time either, so... earlier... we were rude, rude..."

  "It's nothing, it's nothing." Tang Zheng waved his hand.

  Tian Meng's letter was read by Tang Zheng, who didn't go into details about their experience in Fengmen Village. He only mentioned that he encountered mountain bandits on the road and was coincidentally rescued by Tang Zheng. However, he suffered severe injuries and needed to find the Young Master of Tianyi Valley, Xiao Tan, as soon as possible. So, he temporarily entrusted the matters of the Tang family fortress to Tang Zheng and would visit him another day to apologize in person.

  "Kanada Mong mentioned in the letter that Husband also surnamed Tang? It's really a fate. The middle-aged man handed the jade pendant back to Tang Zheng and said, "Tang Husband, I am Tang Bo Yuan - the lord of this Tang family fortress."

  "Nice to meet you!" said Tang Zhengdao.

  "Master Tang, you've had a long and tiring journey! Recently, due to some incidents in Wulong Town, most of the young masters have gone out, so Master Tang can take this opportunity to rest in the manor for a few days. When they all return, I'll have them throw a grand welcoming feast just for you!"

  "Have they all gone out? Then this one..." Tang Zheng pointed to the girl beside him.

  "Oh, this is my only daughter, Little Sugar. Alas, she's been spoiled. Please, husband, discipline her more in the future." Tang Bo-yuan looked at his daughter with a loving expression, "Little Sugar, it's late, take your husband to rest now."

  Tang Xiaotang skipped out, turning back at the door with a smile and beckoning to Tang Zheng.

  Tang Zheng followed him out and just faintly heard those two middle-aged men reconnecting with the topic that was interrupted earlier...

  "Hiding Blue Manor has suffered a great defeat this time!"

  "Hmm, next month they won't have enough goods and will have to compensate Xianxing Sect and Qintian Sect with a large sum of money."

  "If they want to compensate, they must sell some of their storefronts! We'll take them over, the Zi Jin side must make early preparations."

  "It's all set. Hmph, after all these years of doing shady business at Hidden Blue Manor, it's about time to spit out a big mouthful!"

  "It's just..."

  "What?"

  "The Lan family's flower field is so secretive that even we can't find its exact location. Which immortal helped them this time?"

  "Those who can enter that kind of flower and burn it down are not many... Could it be... the City of Purple Gold... Du Qixi?"

  "What's wrong with Ke Duqixi, why did he go burn their flower field for no reason?"

  "Perhaps it's for some pretty girl to watch the fireworks? To amuse a girl?"

  "Cough, it's possible!"

  "If it's really Du Qixi, then the Lan family can only admit that they're out of luck this time..."

  The voices of the two people grew fainter and fainter, Tang Zheng also got farther and farther away, and gradually couldn't hear clearly anymore. He quickly followed up with Tang Xiaotang.

  Tang's family arranged for Tang Zheng a two-story courtyard house.

  There is a stream of running water in the courtyard, and on the bank there are large areas of ink bamboo.

  "It's just here, although the place is not big, but I sweep it very clean every day, is Tang Fu satisfied?" Tang Xiaotang stood at the gate of the yard, looking very satisfied with her labor results.

  "Who? Sweeping?" Tang Zheng's face twitched as he looked inside...

  Cleanliness is very clean, but what kind of ghost is this uniform fiery red? He came to teach books, not to worship and get married!

  Tang Xiaotang's hand was already on Tang Zheng's shoulder: "It's not easy to have a husband willing to come and teach, we will definitely not slack off, this is the best set of furnishings in the Tang family, my brother didn't even use it when he married his wife..."

  Tang Zheng swallowed hard: "Hmph... I see..."

  "If Master Fu has anything else he needs, just let me know anytime." Tang Xiaotang patted his own chest very righteously.

  "Good... that... my books were all damaged when I encountered the mountain bandits, hopefully the Tang family can provide some tomorrow..." Tang Zheng felt that he could still speak calmly now, it was as if his cultivation level had increased by several levels.

  "Ah, of course no problem!"

  "Also, I need a flower pot... a bigger one."

  "Flower... flower pot?"

  "Uh, no rush for the book, but the flower pot is needed as soon as possible..."

  "Want a flower pot in the middle of the night..." Tang Xiaotang went to find him a flower pot, counting on her fingers and muttering to herself, "Hehe, this person is really too interesting..."
