Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 51: Once Thriving, Thriving Thoroughly. Once Lost, Losing Thoroughly
Jingmen Island, in the Presidential Suite upstairs Jarvis Hotel.
As Tang Xiu hung up the phone, a middle-aged man standing beside the window fell down with pale skin.
In the next moment, the middle-aged man turned around as he fiercely slapped a young man by his side.
The youngster, who looked at the middle-aged man with an anticipatory expression, did not guard against the middle-aged man's anger. So he was immediately slapped and fell to the floor.
“First Senior Brother .. k-k-you .. why did you hit me?” Zhang Tiechun looked at Gong Dalong with a puzzled expression.
Jia Ruidao had only received 3 disciples in her entire life. Each, they were Eldest Apprentice Gong Dalong, 2nd Apprentice Zhang Tiechun, and 3rd Apprentice Jia Yelei.
Jia Yelei was the son of Jia Ruidao and also his successor.
3 Brothers have a good relationship. They support and care for each other, and are like blood brothers. Their good relations were even famous throughout Shuangqing Province.
The only small flaw to the brotherhood that was otherwise perfect, was that Jia Yelei loved arrogance and glory. His extremely impulsive nature made Gong Dalong and Zhang Tiechun frequently clear his mess, even Jia Ruidao had to do the same.
The reason Jia Ruidao had to rush to Jingmen Island was because Jia Yelei had lost a gambling bet so miserably. He even lost his temper after the loss, using his father's reputation and triggering big trouble.
Jia Ruidao's reputation might be useful in Shuangqing Province, but not elsewhere in the country. Let alone Jingmen Island, a place with quite strong anti-foreign sentiments. Not only was Jia Yelei able to hinder others with her father's name, but she also suffered more humiliating treatment.
In just 3 days, under the ridicule of the opponent, rash and impatient Jia Yelei were lured and lost 100 million. When Jia Yelei finally realized the problem, he called his 2nd Senior Brother Zhang Tiechun.
Zhang Tiechun had mastered most of Jia Ruidao's gambling techniques. He also doted on Jia Yelei and rushed to Jingmen Island. Without reprimanding or asking about Jia Yelei's matter, he jumped into the opponent's trap and then lost another 50 million.
“Why did I hit you? Right now, you're still asking why I hit you? Master's wife's last will to us is to look after this little man. But you screwed it up! You don't care if he goes gambling on Jingmen Island for half a month. You do not know anything about the circumstances and do not tell Master or Me when he calls you for help. You even played dumb with a little brother. ”
“Zhang Tiechun, do you realize that if Master is doomed at the moment, what kind of situation should we face, huh? Not only will we go bankrupt, but our reputation in Shuangqing Province will also be ruined. You also know the personality of Master, do you think Master still wants to live afterward? ”
Gong Dalong almost roared at Zhang Tiechun.
“T-Tang Xiu .. A-he doesn't want to help us?” Zhang Tiechun no longer sparred as he asked with a puzzled expression.
“I don't know if Tang Xiu's gambling skills are good or not. But he knew very well that this water was too deep. He admitted that his judiciary skills were not so good and could not help. He just hung up the phone without giving me a chance to talk. ”After hearing it, Gong Dalong's skin became dim as he sighed in despair.
“I-this .. How Tang Xiu can be like this ... for gamblers like us, once we develop, we thrive, but once we lose, we lose completely. Not only will it affect the reputation of our masters and disciples, but also the reputation of the entire Shuangqing Province. He had no consideration about that ... “Zhang Tiechun replied with a pale expression.
“Teacher has told us very clearly; tang Xiu is not a gambler. He is not from our society. “Gong Dalong smile. He shook his head and added, “Let's think of another way first, we can only get rid of Tang Xiu and talk to him on the grounds slowly.”
After hanging up the phone from Gong Dalong, Tang Xiu cleaned up the villa, and then returned to school.
Taking the current leave for Tang Xiu was mainly to satisfy his body and complete the Vitality Tempering stage. Since he had finished bandaging his body, Tang Xiu naturally did not need to stay outside.
Tang Xiu's past incarnations were completely obsessed with cultivation, alchemy, refining tools and talismans, as well as the creation of symbols and charms. He paid no attention to the outside world and was barely aware of the outside world, to the point that he was betrayed by his lover and close friend at the last moment.
Because he already possessed the unique and matchless Method of Divine Cultivation of the Celestial Art of Cosmic Genesis, coupled with his knowledge and experience of incarnation in the past, Tang Xiu was not worried about his strength promotion being slow or not. Therefore, he only wanted to use his time and energy to familiarize himself with worldly affairs and temper his state of mind at the same time.
When Tang Xiu entered the classroom, he realized that the expressions of his classmates when they looked at him were very strange. He even faintly heard bad words from them.
“He must have cheated to get the top scorer on the Monthly Test. If he really had the ability, he would be able to take first place again in this Monthly Test. ”
“Bah, it is impossible for him to make such a big sensation again. Yang Jian of Class 5 had continued his first goalscorer for several Monthly Test sessions. But he doesn't study that hard every day. ”
“How I saw it, Tang Xiu thought that graduation was imminent. So he couldn't bear to act crazy once. He must have thought that at least he would be remembered by everyone. With his IQ, I don't think he can really get first place. ”
****
Suddenly hearing these words, it made Tang Xiu's heart very uncomfortable.
But after he thought deeper, he relaxed a little.
Maybe instant results can cause a sensation for a moment, as well as shake some people. But as time goes by, the sensation it causes will gradually disappear. Some people with ill intentions would always provoke and spread rumors to express their jealousy and hatred, and even slander him.
“First Brother, just ignore them. They just have too much time and no guts. They are just the sh * ts type that will bite their own tongue someday. “Seeing that Tang Xiu has returned, Yuan Chuling couldn't help but be excited. After chatting for a while, he realized that Tang Xiu's face was a bit unusual. He quickly understood and whispered to comfort her.
“It's okay. We will slap him with our mark, “Tang Xiu nodded. He then opened his school desk and prepared to flip over from the inside.
As she opened her desk, Tang Xiu was shocked.10 days had passed since she left school, and the table had been filled full of white paper exams.
“First Eldest Brother, I really admire your wise choice. You walk there and have fun. You do not need to face this endless torment .. Hey, wait a minute ... Why do I feel you are whiter and taller than ever? You didn't have plastic surgery, did you? “Yuan Chuling suddenly realized something was wrong as she spoke and then shouted.
Because his voice was quite loud, the eyes of everyone in the class turned their eyes on them abruptly. And then their eyes swept over Tang Xiu's body.
Tang Xiu's heart pounded and his expression changed as he heard Yuan Chuling's words.
Although Tang Xiu also discovered that his height became higher after he extinguished his body, but after he made a few phone calls and pondered other things, he forgot about the change in his height.
But as he prepared to explain it, the other words suddenly echoed behind him, leaving him shocked.
“Fucking Fat. You think you'll die if you don't brag, don't you? Tang Xiu still owed her school fees, how could she have the money to do plastic surgery, huh? ”
“If plastic surgery can make my height higher, I will have it too.”
“Well, I know that Fatty just yelled to attract everyone's attention, don't pay attention to this bastard.”
****
Tang Xiu became taller. But since he had entered Class 10 for just a month, let alone he sat in his chair most of the time and did not move or interact with his classmates, either, resulting in others feeling that his presence in the classroom was very weak.
If not for the deliberate provocation by Su Xiangfei, the Grade 10 students might have ignored students like Tang Xiu. They did not care about his height, nor would they notice if his skin was white or black.
Tang Xiu also thought that the change in her height could cause sensation and suspicion. But the fact that it happened made him feel comfortable.
Everyone just ignored Yuan Chuling and just mocked and mocked him before they got busy and went back to their own things, no longer responding to him.
“Hah? Could it be that I was really wrong? ” Yuan Chuling looked at Tang Xiu with a confused expression. But he couldn't help but also whisper, “Gosh, my eyes can really fool me and make me wrong. But ... Could it be that I also misread the exam paper and my eyes blurred? ”
Tang Xiu now really felt at ease when he heard Yuan Chuling's words.
Yuan Chuling was his closest friend at Star City First High School. If even Yuan Chuling was not sure that he had undergone such an incredible change, the others would definitely not be able to see anything.
As for his family members, Tang Xiu had never worried in the first place.
The ages of 17 and 18 are the ages when a person's body undergoes extraordinary changes. He only comes home once a month. His mother also did not have to worry about his height. He might be stunned when he saw that his height had suddenly become higher. It was very likely that he would only be shocked, but he would not have any suspicion or fear.
After chatting for a while with Tang Xiu, Yuan Chuling started to seriously read the book reviews.
The knot in Yuan Chuling's heart may have been completely released. Perhaps after the circumstances and environment changed, his mentality also changed along with it.
Tang Xiu could tell that Yuan Chuling was no longer the handsome man he was before because he was studying attentively at the moment.
After sweeping the exam papers on her school desk, Tang Xiu pulled them out and threw them into the trash. He did not want to waste his time on boring exercises and exams.
“Wealth, companion, cultivation method, and place. Wealth is placed in the first place. So the next priority for me is to carve out a path to making money. Not this shitty College Entrance Test. ”
Treading on the path of cultivation mainly emphasizes on these 4 aspects, “Keayaan”, “Sahabat”, “Method of Cultivation”, and “Tamap”.
With the Heavenly Art of Cosmic Genesis, Tang Xiu was not worried about cultivation methods. Earth is the world with the final stage law. Other than himself, Tang Xiu had found no other cultivators and had no thoughts of finding any other cultivators. As for the cultivation location, ever since the construction of the Heavenly Palace began to be built in the Walled Hill Village, Tang Xiu temporarily did not have to worry about it.
But regarding the aspect of “kayaan”, Tang Xiu more or less had no choice but to pay attention.
