Chapter 144: Having an Old Man in the Family Is Like Having a Treasure
When Yu Lie was rejoicing, a burst of shouting sounded in the medicine hall he was in charge of.
Someone appeared in front of Yu Lie, shouting and yelling, which immediately made Yu Lie look at him in surprise.
But the person who came was one of Yu Lie's trusted subordinates, Luobotou. He tolerated the other party's panic, and looked at Carrot Head with slightly focused eyes:
"What's the matter?"
Carrot Head ran to Yu Lie and said breathlessly:
"Boss, it's a big deal! There is news circulating in the town that after this merit-discussion and reward meeting, in a few days, the training of high-ranking Taoist boys will begin, and it is related to Taoism..."
After hearing the news from the other party, Yu Lie's eyes changed and he blurted out: "Seriously?"
Soon, Luobotou told Yu Lie everything he knew.
As Carrot Head said, the news in the town was indeed true.
Now the new and old high-ranking Taoist boys in Heishui Town are already surprised and happy.
The surprising thing is that once the news is true, they will undoubtedly have to go through another test, and it will be a more severe test compared to the previous experience down the mountain.
As for the happy ones, it is the confident high-ranking Taoist boys. Most of these people have been at the peak of the ninth level for a long time, waiting for the town to start practicing, and then succeed in one fell swoop, so that they can be promoted from ordinary Taoist boys to the eighth level. Taoist disciple!
Among Yu Lie's acquaintances, She Shuangbai was the representative.
So after a while, Yu Lie appeared outside the Paozao Hall. He suppressed his mood and planned to ask.
But after waiting for a while, no high-ranking Taoist boy came out of the processing hall, but a middle-ranking Taoist boy respectfully presented a piece of paper and sent it to Yu Lie.
She Shuangbai had already entered a state of seclusion, just like Yu Lie before, so it was not convenient for her to come out for interviews in person. She could only explain one or two things through the wall.
The other party didn't explain too much about the reason in the note. He just asked Yu Lie to prepare his property quickly and said:
"The troops have been ordered and the main meal is coming."
After taking a look at the contents of the note, Yu Lie understood clearly:
"It seems that this matter is not a fake news released by unscrupulous merchants in the town in order to raise prices again! Like the Dadian soldiers, it is also ahead of schedule!"
Yu Lie's eyes flickered. He raised his hand to the middle Taoist boy who was delivering the message. After casually giving some reward money, he hurried towards the dark street.
Arriving at the door of Fangfang's shop with ease, Yu Lie got in. After half an hour, he walked out.
When he walked out, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, with a relaxed look on his face.
After confirming the authenticity of the news, Yu Lie hurriedly came to the Black Street. Naturally, he wanted to ask someone to help prepare a batch of talismans and other items for going out.
Even if the price is a little higher, it doesn't matter, as long as he can get the goods. After all, he is a few days late, so it is normal for him to get ripped off.
The people he was looking for were Lao Yutou and Guo Daotong, who had previously helped him prepare a large amount of military supplies.
These two people had already helped Yu Lie before Yu Lie was promoted to a senior position, and they were proficient in speculation. Even if Yu Lie was promoted to a senior position now, they were not as professional as the other two.
And Yu Lie became a high-ranking Taoist boy. After establishing a foothold, he met with Lao Yutou and others several times, acting as their backend in the town.
As a result, Lao Yutou and Guo Daoren's small shops now have Yu Lie to take over the business, and they no longer need to be other people's pawns. The business in the underworld is suddenly smoother and more convenient than before.
He reciprocated the favor, and now Yu Lie hurried over to find him. Taoren Guo, the shopkeeper, gave Yu Lie a surprise.
That is, without Yu Lie's instructions, Old Yutou had already ordered Taoist Guo to start hoarding talismans, elixirs and other items.
After they set up shop, the prices continued to rise, one price per day. Under Lao Yutou's insistence, the two of them did not sell them, but instead carefully selected and stocked up the goods.
Because Lao Yutou didn't hoard this batch of materials for business, but for the sake of remnants.
As soon as Yu Lie came over, Taoist Guo cut up the materials and handed them to Yu Lie's hands. There were all kinds of materials, which really relieved Yu Lie's urgent need and made him feel safe.
This also made Yu Lie sigh with emotion:
"Sure enough, having an old man in the family is like having a treasure."
Without his instructions, Lao Yutou took the initiative to solve the material problem for him, which was worthy of his standing up for the opponent.
Overjoyed, Yu Lie left the black street with a relaxed pace and full of achievements, and walked back to the prescription hall.
Although Lao Yutou and the two men had prepared relevant talismans and common elixir materials for him, these things were not necessarily what Yu Lie would use when he went down the mountain.
The remaining powerful items such as blood-strengthening pills and gunpowder must be listed on this basis and processed by oneself.
So the Taoist boys in the Yaofang Hall were surprised to see Yu Lie hurried out of the door, and then hurriedly returned to the quiet room to practice in seclusion.
Lao Hutou and the others who saw this scene breathed a sigh of relief. They all understood that their hall master was seizing the time to prepare for the upcoming high-level experience.
Outside the quiet room, Lao Hutou estimated the days, his face showed joy, and he whispered to the carrot heads around him: "It's okay, it's okay, I still have time to make preparations."
If Yu Lie hadn't spoken to him before in seclusion, unless the matter was urgent, he shouldn't have even said the words into the quiet room, otherwise Old Hutou would have alarmed him long ago.
It was precisely because of this that Laobotou was dragged outside the quiet room by Old Hutou. He stared at the stone door every day, and when he saw Yu Lie entering the customs, he rushed towards him and shouted in a hurry.
These are all to inform Yu Lie of important things without disturbing Yu Lie, so as to prevent him from missing it.
A few more days passed.
Yu Lie was refining elixirs in the quiet room of Yaofangtang.
Because of his improvement in alchemy level, he was able to divide the refining steps of the elixir he needed into several parts, and let the Taoist boys in the hall who had some alchemy skills accompany him to make the elixir together.
Free labor is not used in vain.
In this way, except for the secret fire dragon elixir that Yu Lie needed to refine by himself, he could find someone to help with the rest of the elixirs.
In less than seven days, Yu Lie had filled up his blood storage and blood vessels again, and prepared the corresponding things. He was even richer than before the last battle.
Especially after the old beggar's guidance on alchemy, and the help of the fire insect as an alchemy helper, Yu Lie's current level of alchemy is already as good as that of a Taoist disciple at the end of the eighth rank in some respects.
The gunpowder he prepared does not need to be loaded in the form of firearms. It is prepared into fire pills and fire powder in a form that is convenient for people in the alchemy world!
