After resting in the inn for one night, Zhang Tie got up the next daybreak. After asking the waiter how to go to Tigerback Mountain, Zhang Tie left the inn for Tigerback Mountain.
The town was not far from Tigerback Mountain. After walking for less than 3 miles, Zhang Tie had already arrived at the foot of Tigerback Mountain.
Tigerback Mountain was not high; however, it was full of reiki. Bian Heng the Yama lived on the mountain. There was a stone path leading to the foot of the mountain. A decorated archway was erected at the beginning of the stone path at the foot of the mountain. The archway was higher than 30 m. There was a line of huge golden words on the archway, which glittered under the first ray of sunshine in the morning. It was written "No. 1 Sage in Motian Realm" and was signed "Emperor NvWa's Palace".
Just this archway alone was enough to make everyone feel intimidated at the sight of it.
When Zhang Tie came to the outside of the archway, he found hundreds of people were waiting there, male or female, old or young, immortal generals, commoners, luxuriously dressed people or commoners. All of them were queuing up outside the archway in an orderly way and waiting quietly.
At the sight of these people, Zhang Tie had known that they were here for medical treatment. According to the rule of Tigerback Mountain, all the people who came here for medical treatment had to queue up here and wait for medical treatment.
In other places in Motian Realm, some people might jump the queue; however, nobody would jump the queue in Tigerback Mountain. Because all those who dared jump the queue would be driven out of Tigerback Mountain by Bian Heng the Yama and refused to receive medical treatment. You might wonder whether nobody would use violence. Of course, there were. However, the premise was that you could defeat Bian Heng the Yama. Although Bian Heng the Yama was famous for his medical skills across Motian Realm, he was also a supreme-level immortal general, namely a sage-level knight.
Besides immortal emperors, who dared say that they could defeat supreme-level immortal generals for sure? As for those human immortal emperors, as long as they were not out of their minds, they would not dare to beat Bian Heng the Yama.
Zhang Tie queued up behind the crowd consciously. After taking a look around, he found Uncle Guan who drove the carriage yesterday had queued up in front of him. After greeting Uncle Guan, Zhang Tie and Uncle Guan had queued up respectively.
'It's almost like registering in the hospital!' Zhang Tie murmured inside.
After Zhang Tie arrived, more people arrived one after another. After over one hour, when the number of people in the queue had reached over 500, Zhang Tie saw two people walking down the mountain leisurely. They came to the archway and opened a small room under the archway. After entering it, a voice drifted from the room, "The first one can come in …"
The first one in the queue was a butler. After hearing Zhang Tie's words, the butler hurriedly cleaned his clothes and entered the small room. After that, he closed the door.
Zhang Tie found that the small room was covered with a restrictive mechanism. Commoners' talks inside could not be heard by outsiders at all.
The first one entered and exited quickly. Only after 10 more seconds, the butler had opened the door of the small room and walked out. After taking a look at Tigerback Mountain with a worried look, he left.
Closely after that, the second one entered and stayed inside for 10 more seconds. Closely after that, the third one, the fourth one. The queue kept moving forward. Most of the people only stayed in the small room for a bit more than 10 seconds. Very few of them could stay in the small room for half a minute. Only one or two people could stay in the small room for one minute.
After about 1 hour, Zhang Tie saw Uncle Guan enter the small room.
Uncle Guan only stayed inside for about ten seconds before he came out.
At the sight of Uncle Guan, Zhang Tie found that Uncle Guan looked a bit frustrated and indignant.
"Uncle Guan, how was it?" Zhang Tie asked Uncle Guan when he walked towards him.
After taking a look at Zhang Tie, Uncle Guan shook his head. Closely after that, he left with heavy steps.
Not only Uncle Guan, even most of the people who left the small room didn't look relaxed.
Zhang Tie moved forward with the queue. After Uncle Guan left for less than 20 minutes, it was finally Zhang Tie's turn.
Zhang Tie calmly entered the small room and closed the door.
There was a chair and a table in the small room. The elder one with grey hair was sitting on the chair with a dull look, eyes half closed. He didn't even see who was coming in; the younger one at his 20s was standing on his side and watching Zhang Tie in a condescending manner.
It was like how business groups and firms interviewed for assistants.
At the sight of the two people, Zhang Tie had known that they were both immortal generals. The elder one was already a wind immortal general; the younger one was already an earth immortal general. However, they were dressed like servants.
"Do you know the rule of Tigerback Mountain?" At the sight of Zhang Tie's common look, the young man asked mechanically without any smile as if Zhang Tie owed him hundreds of element crystals or he was hearing a case in the court.
"I don't know!" Zhang Tie replied calmly.
"What are you doing here?" The young man changed his face as he started to reproach Zhang Tie.
"Because I don't know!" Zhang Tie said calmly as if he had not seen that young man's look, "I wonder where Tigerback Mountain has announced its rules. If there's one, I don't mind taking a look over there. If not, please explain it to me. Isn't that what you're doing here?" "That's what you're doing here.
Zhang Tie knew the rule of Tigerback Mountain. Tang Mei had told him about it in the vehicle yesterday. However, he didn't like the young man's look at this moment. Therefore, he pretended that he didn't know it.
At this moment, the old man raised his head as he threw a glance at Zhang Tie. Closely after that, he lowered his eyes as if he was taking a nap.
The young immortal general slightly changed his face as if he wanted to lose his temper. However, after taking a look at the old man on his side, he took in a deep breath and suppressed his fury.
"Well, since you don't know the rule of Tigerback Mountain, I will explain it to you. Do you want my master to treat you?"
"Yes, sir!"
"Then tell me, what do you have that is worth my master taking action for you!" The young immortal general watched Zhang Tie with a bit sarcastic look as he struck Zhang Tie's confidence mercilessly as if he was going to vent his anger, "You know, my master doesn't care about ordinary items. If you want to take out some human-level immortal outfits or element crystals, just save it. A few years ago, someone took out an earth-level immortal general; however, my master didn't care about it. Ordinary immortal outfits and element crystals are nothing but sh * t in my master's eyes!"
Zhang Tie replied with a smile, "What I can offer is unique in Motian Realm. I believe that your master must be interested in it!"
"Young man, you can leave now. I will not embarrass you today!" The old man who always kept his eyes half closed suddenly opened his mouth as he looked up at Zhang Tie, "We would meet dozens of people like you every year. You could not bear the consequence of cheating people in Tigerback Mountain. Don't look for trouble for yourself!"
Zhang Tie replied with a smile. Closely after that, he moved one step forward and clenched his fist, saying, "It's in my hand. You will know it after taking a look. However, the fewer people who see it, the better …"
"Stop pretending to be mysterious …" The young man on his side became furious as he almost couldn't stand throwing Zhang Tie away.
Zhang Tie tightly clenched his fists. As a result, the young man couldn't see what Zhang Tie was pinching. Even if there was, it must be a small item which was not too precious.
The old man threw a calm look at Zhang Tie as he reached out his hand. Zhang Tie then put the item in the old man's hand.
Just by feeling the thing in his hand, the old man's expression changed slightly.
"Do you think there's such an item in Motian Realm?" Zhang Tie asked with a smile.
After changing his face for a short while, the old man finally nodded as he slowly picked himself up from the chair. Under the unbelievable look of the young immortal general, the old man told Zhang Tie, "Follow me …"
After saying that, the old man told the young immortal general, "Let's call it a day!"
Closely after that, the old man took Zhang Tie out of the room under the archway and walked towards the top of Tigerback Mountain under the dumbfounded looks of those people waiting in line outside, causing many people to be in a hubbub behind him …
"Who's that young man? How could he go up there?"
"Does he have any rarity …"
"Impossible …"
