Chapter 18: The Ambition to Become an Alchemist


Zhang Tie, who came to the counter, handed over his family disc card, as well as the 360 gold coins that had been prepared a long time ago.

If you have enough money now, it is best to pay a one-time advance fee for one year first Zhang Tie's cousin handed over the principal of Zhang Tie's 300 gold coins and the 900 gold coins won from the bet with Zhang Haige's brothers to Zhang Tie's suggestion to Zhang Tie last night.

It is said that the two Zhang Haige brothers were greatly injured this time, and they lost their faces, and after paying the gambling money, the two of them went out to do tasks to make money that day, which is really a pair of poor brothers and sisters.

Because of this, Zhang Tie was carrying more than 1,200 gold coins at this moment, and if you added the debts owed to him by those girls in Zhixing Academy, Zhang Tie could definitely be regarded as the richest freshman in Ling Tian Academy at this moment.

"I came to Lingtian Courtyard today to report, and I will pay the monthly fee of Lingtian Courtyard for one year in advance."

"You are Zhang Tie" The old pedant behind the counter lowered his head, lowered his glasses, and looked at Zhang Tie seriously when he accepted the things handed over by Zhang Tie.

After yesterday's incident, Zhang Tie knew that he was no longer a nobody in Qianlong Hall, and many people should have heard of his name, so he was not surprised, he just nodded calmly.

"Wait a minute, I need to check the source records of all this money after you entered the Hidden Dragon Hall" Zhang Tie nodded, and the old pedantic-like old man behind the counter stood up from behind the counter and turned to another room that Zhang Tie couldn't see, and only reappeared after a full minute.

Zhang Tie estimated that according to the degree of mastery of the information of the children of the family who entered here, it was easy to know the origin of the large gold coins on some of the students, whether they were carried in violation of regulations, if they couldn't even do such a simple thing, then Qianlong Hall would have no face to call Qianlong Hall.

"There is no problem with your sources of money, are you sure, pay the monthly fee of Ling Tianyuan for one year in advance at one time?"

OK After the "good" man finished counting the gold coins, he inserted Zhang Tie's family disc into the slot of the machine, and then operated on the machine a few times.

"Zhang Tie, pay the monthly fee of 360 gold coins for a year in Ling Tian Courtyard, it is now recorded" The old scholar handed over Zhang Tie's identity card and two keys again, "Your residence in Ling Tian Yuan is the seventh room of Xuanzi in Songtao Pavilion, this is the key to Songtao Pavilion and your room" "Thank you" Zhang Tie took these things, and couldn't help but glance at the machine on the counter curiously, "Can I ask, for example, after I paid the fee of 360 gold coins, you didn't give me a receipt, what if I messed up in the future?"

As soon as he heard this, the eyes of the old scholar in the counter suddenly widened, and he looked at Zhang Tie angrily, "Unless the Qianlong Hall is broken and the differential machine system in the middle castle is completely destroyed, otherwise all the information you have in the Qianlong Hall is stored in the database managed by the differential machine, and the human head will make mistakes, and the differential machine will not make mistakes, do you understand or not" Speaking of this, the old scholar turned his head and said loudly to the other few people who were working in the room behind the counter, "Listen, It's unreasonable for this stinky boy to suspect that our precious machine is going to go wrong."

For a moment, all the old guys wearing sleeves in the room behind the counter glared at Zhang Tie angrily, just like a devout believer whose faith had been insulted.

Seeing that he had stabbed the hornet's nest with a reckless word, Zhang Tie hurriedly fled after apologizing.

After leaving the middle castle from the back door of the middle fort, he officially entered the scope of the Ling Tian Courtyard, and after really entering this place, Zhang Tie felt the grandeur and atmosphere of the Ling Tian Courtyard hidden in the mountains.

Compared to Ling Tianyuan, the courtyard of Zhixing Academy has completely become a preschool and a kindergarten.

Lingtian Courtyard occupies a large area of slope valley and woods at the position of the whole mountainside, the architectural style is a combination of east and west, pavilions, pavilions, pavilions, pavilions, halls and halls stand everywhere, just like a palace, five steps on the first floor, ten steps on a pavilion, a hundred steps on a hall, everywhere the corridor waist is back, the eaves are pecked high, each hugging the terrain, there is a flying spring flowing down in the mountains, forming a silver waterfall in the Lingtian Courtyard, the water is murmuring everywhere, the fish swimming in the water is clearly visible, the strange flowers and plants everywhere are undefeated all year round, such a scene, Zhang Tie is so big, it is the first time to see it.

At a cursory glance, Zhang Tie knew that the scale of this Ling Tian Courtyard alone was only a lap smaller than those towns on Qianlong Island.

Different from the Zhixing Courtyard, which felt deserted and deserted in the daytime, the entire Lingtian Courtyard was full of popularity and seemed vibrant, under the waterfall that day, there were a large number of people practicing swordsmanship, on a high cliff, there were many people meditating and breathing, and by the stream, under the trees and in those attics, there were also many people reading books, and many people were still discussing fiercely.

Here, everyone seems to be doing something, and even if they occasionally meet a few people on the road who have not done anything, those people are in a hurry, as if time is very short.

Because the residential areas in Lingtian Courtyard are relatively concentrated, Zhang Tie easily found Songtao Pavilion, which is a traditional Chinese building with a total of five floors next to a pine forest, covering a large area.

After opening the door of Songtao Pavilion with a key and entering Songtao Pavilion, Zhang Tie found that there were eight rooms on each floor of Songtao Pavilion, each occupying a corner of the attic, and the seventh room of Xuanzi was on the fourth floor of Songtao Pavilion, and the room was facing the southwest.

After using the key to open the door of the room in the seventh room of Xuanzi and put down the suitcase, Zhang Tie finally breathed a sigh of relief, it was indeed a place where gold coins lived for a day, except for the hard wooden bed in the room, which still maintained the hard style of Qianlong Hall, the other places were much better than when they were in Zhixingyuan.

In addition to the bedroom, there is also a bathroom, a study, a metalworking room, and a cultivation room facing the balcony in the seventh room, in a few corners of the room, there are also several thick crystal pillars, each of which weighs more than ten kilograms, as soon as he enters the room, under the influence of the powerful aura of those "crystal generators", Zhang Tie found that the battle qi in his body has a little more lively and agile feeling.

Zhang Tie only stayed in the room of Songtao Pavilion for a few minutes, tidied up his things a little, and then left Songtao Pavilion.

After more than ten minutes, Zhang Tie almost inquired all the way in Ling Tianyuan, and finally found this place.

This is a small building, a small building located in the pine forest, this small building is very inconspicuous in the many lofty buildings of Lingtian Courtyard, in front of the door of the small building, there is a plaque, the plaque is written with seven big characters "The ambition of the youth to Lingtian".

When Zhang Tie came here, a young man just came out of the small building with great ambition, and outside the small building, he bowed deeply to the small building before leaving.

Living in this small building is a strange person in Lingtian Courtyard, Zhang Su's cousin called this strange person the old man of the bamboo forest, every newcomer who came to the Ling Tian Courtyard officially started his life in the Ling Tian Courtyard after visiting the old man of the bamboo forest.

There is a strange rule for visiting the old man of the bamboo forest, all newcomers are free of charge when they come to visit for the first time, and if they want to visit for the second time, they must pay 100 gold coins and 100 family contribution points, and if they want to visit for the third time, they must pay 1000 gold coins and 1000 family contribution points, and everyone can visit him up to three times when they are in Ling Tianyuan.

But very few people can afford to visit for the third time.

Because those 1,000 gold coins and 1,000 family contribution points are not for fun.

Zhang Tie came for the first time today, so it's free.

Zhang Su told Zhang Tie that everyone's first visit to the old man in the bamboo forest would be very rewarding, so Zhang Tie's attitude must be respectful when he came here.

Zhang Su also asked Zhang Tie to think about his future ambitions, and it was best to come after he knew what he wanted to do and what he wanted to become, so as not to waste the opportunity to visit the old man in the bamboo forest for free for the first time.

Of course, Zhang Tie would not waste such an opportunity, and his cousin's suggestion was equivalent to nothing for Zhang Tie, because as early as when he was in Karur City, Zhang Tie had already found the direction of his soul and the goal worth fighting for all his life.

With a very respectful attitude, Zhang Tie first tidied up his clothes outside the small building, stepped on the dirt on his shoes, and then entered the small building.

In the small building, an old man who was lying on a soft couch next to a bookcase, his face was ruddy like a baby, and his hair and eyebrows were as white as silver, and he was stunned when he saw Zhang Tie's first sentence.

"The debt collector surnamed Zhang has another one, alas" "Please also ask the old man of Zhulin for guidance" According to his cousin's instructions, Zhang Tie smiled, bowed to the old man of Zhulin disapprovingly, and then stood respectfully with his hands crossed in front of the bookcase.

The old man of Zhulin closed his eyes after glancing at Zhang Tie, he didn't open them for half a sound, and after opening them, he sighed again, "The road you want to take is too difficult, although the entire Qianlong Hall and the Zhang family dominate one side, I'm afraid there is no one who can help you."

Zhang Tie's heart suddenly froze, he hadn't opened his mouth yet, how could he know what he was thinking, it was impossible that his ambition had never been spoken, it had been buried in his heart, and it was impossible for anyone to know.

"The two top-level ancestral bloodlines unique to your surname have been produced by the Zhang family, one of these two bloodlines can make the Huaiyuan Zhang family produce the most powerful rune refiner, the rune refiner is also the top profession among the human race, the children of the Zhang family who came to Qianlong Hall are eager to become the most rune refiners, and the rune refiners of the Huaiyuan Zhang family can be ranked first in the entire Weiyi subcontinent, Do you know how many people in the entire Weiyi subcontinent want to learn the way of Huaiyuan Zhang's rune refining and can't get it, and you" The old man of the bamboo forest who was lying on the soft couch glanced at Zhang Tie with a smile, "As a descendant of the Huaiyuan Zhang family, I obviously have great conditions that others can't ask for, but I want to become an alchemist, should I scold you for being stupid or praise you for being ambitious?"

Zhang Tie was shocked all of a sudden, mom, this old man really knows:
