Tideviewing Courtyard was at the foot of Tigerback Mountain which was close to Whitedragon Gulf. There was a path leading to Tideviewing Courtyard.
Tideviewing Courtyard was just a small courtyard which contained 5 rooms. Being close to the mountain and facing the sea, being covered by mangroves, it looked pretty tranquil. It was almost as large as Zhang Tie's courtyard in Apricot Blossom Village. It was a silvery beach over 300 m away from Tideviewing Courtyard. Zhang Tie could even hear the sound of surging sea waves.
Under the guidance of General Butler Qin, Zhang Tie took a look around Tideviewing Courtyard and was very satisfied with this place.
"This beach is the back mountain of Tigerback Mountain. Nobody else would come here. Tideviewing Courtyard was prepared for master. When master came here once, he liked the scenery here. Therefore, he built Tideviewing Courtyard. After this courtyard was built, master also lived here once or twice. However, master didn't come here for over 3 decades. Even so, someone still looks after this courtyard. Additionally, it's well-equipped. Are you satisfied with it, Butler Jin?"
Tideviewing Courtyard was covered with triangular plum, yellow cicada flower and purple micro flower. With the sea breeze, Tideviewing Courtyard was suffused with faint fragrance. The sunlight covered the courtyard with the shadows of flowers and trees. This place was really the best place to watch tides, listen to billows and cultivate one's mind …
Qin Mu showed Zhang Tie all the rooms. After discovering a high-level backroom for cultivation in Tideviewing Courtyard, Zhang Tie nodded inside, 'If such a small courtyard was placed in Tigerback Town, commoners might go bankrupt for one night.'
"Yes, very satisfied. Thanks for your hard work, General Butler Qin!"
"You could have two meals a day in Tigerback Mountain. If you want to have meals, you could go to the main courtyard or Tigerback Town. You could also cook here. Based on your identity, if you feel inconvenient to live here, you could hire two servants to take care of you. Butler Jin's salary is 30 blue crystal coins per month, excluding master's reward. Butler Jin would also be responsible for the salary of your servants. You could take grains from the main courtyard or buy them yourself …"
Qin Mu explained to Zhang Tie seriously as he completely treated Zhang Tie as the butler of Tigerback Mountain. Zhang Tie just listened to him silently.
"I don't need to hire servants. I'm comfortable living alone. There's nothing much to do in this courtyard, so I can take care of it. As for food, I'll take care of it myself. I can cook here or go to town to eat!"
"Alright then, I'll get someone to deliver your supervisor waist token to you tomorrow. Is there anything else, Supervisor Jin?"
"By the way, I'd like to ask. I heard that Master has eight disciples. Why are there only four on the mountain now?"
"Four of the master's 8 disciples have already left the mountain. One of them is in Star Emperor Immortal Palace, one is in Force Emperor Immortal Palace and one is always in Emperor NvWa's Palace. The three of them are employed elders of the three immortal palaces. The last one is traveling across the world …"
Any disciple of Bian Heng could be employed as employed elders of those immortal palaces. Zhang Tie really became speechless. At this moment, Zhang Tie finally knew why so many medical students came to Tigerback Town out of admiration. Because as long as one became Bian Heng's disciple, he or she would reach the sky in a single bound.
"Butler Jin, do you have any other questions?"
"No, thanks, General Butler Qin …"
"Hmm, I've got to go. Butler Jin, you can live in Tideviewing Courtyard today. Here's the key …" After giving the key to Zhang Tie, General Butler Qin left, leaving Zhang Tie alone in Tideviewing Courtyard.
Zhang Tie came to a pavilion in Tideviewing Courtyard. Watching the beach in front of him and the sparkling Whitedragon Gulf in the distance and listening to the billows, Zhang Tie suddenly felt broad-minded as he felt that this person had a marvelous encounter. Yesterday, he had nothing to do with Tigerback Mountain; however, only one day later, he had already become the butler of Tigerback Mountain, the only butler.
Zhang Tie saw some fishing boats on the sea. It seemed that the fishermen in Tigerback Town were fishing. Those fishing boats might be fishing in Bian Heng's fishing ground and territory. However, Zhang Tie didn't care about it at all. The so-called fishing ground was just a title for him to settle down in Tigerback Mountain. Although such a fishing ground and gulf belonged to Bian Heng, Bian Heng didn't care about it, neither did Zhang Tie care about it. As for Zhang Tie, even Emperor NvWa City which covered tens of millions of square miles couldn't arouse his interest at all, not to mention a small fishing ground. If Zhang Tie cared about these things, he would not have abandoned the position of Dragon Emperor.
Zhang Tie knew that Tang Mei, Beverly and Fiona were in Tigerback Town at this moment. However, Zhang Tie didn't know how to help them. After all, the three people didn't lack money or food or needed Bian Heng to help them; instead, they needed Bian Heng's help, which was out of Zhang Tie's ability.
Of course, Zhang Tie had a solution. For instance, Zhang Tie had two golden secret items. If he had more golden secret items, he might have Bian Heng help him. However, it was too silly for him to give away the extremely precious golden secret items for the beauty's smile out of sympathy even though he hadn't seen the opponent's real look. Perhaps, only knights could have such an unreliable plot. In reality, such a thing was neither reasonable nor reasonable. Additionally, he didn't have a proper standpoint. Additionally, he might be misunderstood by others as being up to no good.
It was not proper for Zhang Tie to tell the three people that he had become the butler of Tigerback Mountain at once. After all, there were secrets. Additionally, he couldn't help others with this identity; instead, others might think that he was showing off.
Therefore, Zhang Tie could only figure out Tang Mei's disease first. After getting familiar with Bian Heng, Zhang Tie would find an opportunity to ask Bian Heng about how to cure Tang Mei's disease. Based on Bian Heng's ability, he might be able to help Tang Mei survive with only one sentence.
What counted most was to recover his qi sea as soon as possible, even though he could promote to a semi-sage level knight.
After thinking it through, Zhang Tie made up his mind and settled down in Tideviewing Courtyard with the mentality of taking things as they came.
…
Although Zhang Tie couldn't form his chakra or cultivate using his battle qi, he could also cultivate various secret methods with his spiritual energy such as Mental Arithmetic by Punishing Mind or Great Wilderness Sutra which could strengthen his spiritual energy; especially the secret method of condensing the two energies in the void to attack others. Zhang Tie was constantly improving his mastery of it …
No matter what, even in Tideviewing Courtyard, Zhang Tie would have something to do.
…
Zhang Tie stayed in Tideviewing Courtyard leisurely for one day. In the early morning of the next day, Qin Mu had someone deliver the waist plate of the butler of Tigerback Mountain to Zhang Tie. Besides being the symbol of Zhang Tie's identity in Tigerback Mountain, the waist plate could even be used to contact Qin Mu and Bian Heng.
Besides the waist plate, Qin Mu also gifted some sets of clothes of Tigerback Mountain to Zhang Tie. As the butler of Tigerback Mountain, of course, Zhang Tie couldn't wear too shabby clothes.
After putting away all the items, Zhang Tie left Tigerback Mountain at noon and returned to Tigerback Town …
Zhang Tie returned to the inn and paid the bill. After that, he started to wander in Tigerback Town.
Zhang Tie still remembered the direction that Tang Mei, Beverly and Fiona left for. Additionally, the three people's carriage was a big item. Even though it was hard for people to see it in the store, the carriage and the flying lizard had to be placed outside. Therefore, it was not difficult for Zhang Tie to find the lodging of the three people … (To be continued)
