Chapter 128 The new official takes office and celebrates the occasion

Yu Lie walked out of the prison and looked at the rare sunny weather outside the Yamen, his eyes squinting slightly due to the sunlight.

Although he was not in prison for half a year, he still felt a little like he was in another world when he was released from prison.

Especially before Yu Lie could walk out of the lobby of the Yamen, the people outside were noisy and shouting, which was completely opposite to the situation when he had sneaked out several times before.

This was the end of the Dadian Army. The Taoist boys who had come down from the mountain all returned to the mountain, and the town became lively again.

In particular, the Taoist boys have brought back a large amount of materials, treasures, and talisman money from the mountains. Now is the time when they need to exchange for supplies and spend a lot of money.

Yu Lie could imagine that the town of Heishui in the past few days would definitely be a place where merchants were prosperous and money was flowing like water.

He thought to himself: "Maybe prices will rise again. I wonder if Lao Yutou and the others are ready?"

However, because Yu Lie had "withdrawn his capital" a long time ago, he no longer had any money to invest in Lao Yutou and Guo Daoren. Whether the other two made a profit or a loss, he had nothing to do with him.

After a little reverie, Yu Lie suppressed these distracting thoughts in his heart.

He took one last look at the Yamen behind him, touched his bun, sighed softly, then opened his sleeves and strode towards the street.

Such a treasured place, such a master, had finally come to an end with the rest of him. It was time for him to pack his mind and prepare for the rest of his life in the town.

"I wonder if anything major happened to the Dadian soldiers during the time I was in jail?"

Yu Lie thought about it again.

Although he went out many times in the past few days, he was only focused on having fun and drinking with the old beggar. In addition, the mountains and mountains were quite isolated, so his news was somewhat blocked.

Thinking about these things, Yu Lie casually crossed the high threshold in front of the Yamen.

Suddenly, as soon as his feet landed, a surprised voice shouted in front of him:

"Tou'er Yu!"

Yu Lie was startled for a moment, then raised his head suddenly, and saw four tall, short, fat, thin, energetic Taoist boys, crowding up from both sides.

Among the people, some were holding gongs, others were holding bowls, and behind them there were a group of Taoist boys dressed in red and colorful, holding large plaques in their hands!

At first glance, Yu Lie thought he had heard the wrong call and that a powerful Taoist priest in the Yamen was returning home.

But at the second glance, he recognized the four people approaching him. They were tall, short, fat and thin, and they were Luobotou, Mr. Hu and the other four!

It's just that the four of them are now very grand, and the buns on their heads are even greased. They are no longer as crooked as they used to be. They are all together, and Yu Lie doesn't recognize them for a while.

Before Yu Lie could say anything, Mr. Hu, one of the four tall, short, fat and thin people, laughed and scolded Carrot Head:

"You're such a skinny monkey, why are you calling Yu Tou'er? You called Brother Yu too small for nothing, now you should call him 'Palace Master Yu'!"

When Carrot Head saw Yu Lie looking over, his face became excited. He quickly raised one of his arms and shouted: "Palace Master Yu!"

Luobotou also shouted to the Taoist boys behind him: "Young men, please meet Hall Master Yu quickly!"

"Hall Master Yu! Welcome Hall Master out of prison!" The poisonous Taoist boys raised their arms in unison.

The chorus of shouts was so loud that it drowned out the noise of people and horses on the street outside the Yamen, and immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Yu Lie stood in front of the threshold of the Yamen. His eyes were dazed, and he realized that these Taoist boys were all his own.

And he, the rest of the group, is the one who will be welcomed with gongs and drums and the streets cleared!

However, the words of welcome shouted by Luobotou and others also made Yu Lie's face darken.

But at this time, four people, tall, short, fat and thin, had already led the Taoist boys mentioned in the poisonous words and surrounded the remaining columns.

Among them, Mr. Hu also took out a jar of salt, holding the salt jar in one hand and a wicker in the other, and chanted beside Yu Lie:

"Go away, monsters and monsters! Go away, bad luck!"

Bang bang! Mr. Hu whipped the wet willow stick a few times on Yu Lie's front and back, then clamped the willow stick under his arm and began to sprinkle salt on the yamen entrance.

All it took was setting up a brazier for Yu Lie to step over.

When Mr. Hu made this move, the poisonous Taoist boys from all directions were still shouting: "Welcome the Hall Master to be released from prison!"

Their voices were so loud that the Taoist boys on duty in the yamen ran out one by one to have a look, suspecting that someone was causing trouble.

But after hearing clearly the words shouted by the poisonous mouth Taoists, and clearly seeing the words "greeting" and "taking office" raised by the poisonous mouth Taoists, the people in the yamen wisely shut up and even clapped their hands.

Shout out.

When the poisonous Taoist boy walked up to them and handed them a handful of money, the Yamen Taoist boy refused and did not dare to accept it.

There was a lot of noise everywhere.

Yu Lie came to his senses from being caught off guard, and his expression instantly became a bit dumbfounded.

However, he, Yu Lie, is now a hall master after all. He is considered a figure in the town, so he cannot lose his etiquette.

Yu Lie also looked excited. He held his hands towards the poisonous mouth Taoist boys one by one, made a circle, and shouted: "I have met all of you fellow Taoists!"

"Haha! The hall master is too polite."

Amidst the roar of laughter, a colorful tiger was led out again, and Yu Lie was asked to ride on it.

The tiger only had a collar around its neck, and when it was pulled out, it let out an explosive roar, which frightened the last Taoist boy on the street and the faces of the mortals passing by.

But none of the Poisonous Taoists took the tiger seriously. Yu Lie walked up to the tiger and patted him. The blood on his body was leaking, and he almost frightened the tiger to the ground.

After being polite to everyone, Yu Lie then mounted the tigress.

A group of Taoist boys surrounded him, like stars holding the moon, as they walked along the street, beating gongs and drums!

Bang bang bang!

The reception prepared by Luobotou, Lao Hutou and others in front of the Yamen was beyond Yu Lie's expectation, but it also happened to scratch Yu Lie's heart.

I remember when everyone first arrived in Blackwater Town, everyone stood there like a gangster and could only look up at the many Taoist boys.

Now, it is finally his turn to show off his skills and show his superiority to others!

With a reserved look on his face, Yu Lie rode on the tiger and walked slowly towards the alchemy room.

Behind him were a crowd of Taoist boys in black robes, all of them menacing. There were also big signs on both sides saying "Welcome to take office", disturbing a section of the street every time he walked a certain distance.

The voice was loud and ostentatious.

However, no one dared to accuse them of disturbing the people in front of Yu Lie and his group.

Because in Blackwater Town, being promoted to a higher position and obtaining the position of hall leader is a matter worth celebrating, and it is worth making a grand event for the people in the hall.

The last time Yu Lie returned to the town, it was only because he was alone and had no manpower. After correcting the grade of the Taoist altar, he himself kept a low profile, so there was no celebration activity.

Now that Carrot Head and others returned, they naturally filled him up immediately without his need for instructions.

On the street, people who saw this scene just showed envy in their eyes. No matter how jealous they were, they only dared to curse a few words in their hearts.

Yu Lie walked across Huxing Street, and while walking, he also talked with the Luobotou people.

He immediately knew why the poisonous Taoist boy came to the Yamen to pick him up from prison.

It turned out that when he and She Shuangbai killed Mr. Fang, and he won the position of Yaofangtang, and got the approval of the alchemy disciple, the news quickly swept through all the stations without She Shuangbai saying it.

Even the fact that Yu Lie was sent back to the town by Dan Tu to deliver a message and then entered the Yamen was heard by everyone in the Paozhuo Hall.

The former was explained by Yu Lie, while the latter was dug out by the Taoist boys themselves.

It's just that the Taoist boys didn't know that Yu Lie was taking advantage of being imprisoned. They all thought that Yu Lie was punished by the Dan disciples because he plotted against the Fang family and his son, and killed Fang Wumu on the spot.

It's just a prison sentence. For the poisonous people, not only is it not a shameful thing, but it is a glorious thing that is worthy of honor.

In particular, the scandal between the Fang family and his son has been exposed to everyone's ears.

Therefore, Yu Lie's parade attracted many people to join in the fun. They also surrounded Yu Lie and swaggered through the streets, cheering!

After the Wuyang Wuyang group of people passed by, the business of the vendors in front of the Yamen Street became bad, and the vendors immediately followed the group and moved forward.

Only a few scattered people were left standing or sitting, looking up at the crowd as they left the group.

Among them was a tall, thin, black-skinned Taoist boy, standing in the corner with his sleeves rolled up, and making a tentative sound:

"Shall we follow?"

There were several people beside the black and thin Taoist boy. The leader among them was a female Taoist with a slim figure but a dull expression.

The female Taoist priest did not wear the standard Taoist robe in the town, but wore an exquisite silk brocade Taoist robe, and her complexion was slightly pale.

There were few pedestrians on the street, and the wind blew, causing the bronze medal around the female Taoist priest's waist to sway. This person's status was impressive and not low, he was a middle-ranking Taoist boy.

Pu Xing stood on the empty street. She looked at the people who had left and the remaining people who didn't even look at her, with a look of shame and anger in her eyes.

But she stared blankly at Yu Lie's back, her eyes filled with a sense of powerlessness.

Pu Xing lowered her head and looked at her scarred hands, her fingers trembling a little.

She gritted her teeth unwillingly: "So the dog with blind eyes, is it really me?"

After Pu Xing woke up unharmed in the processing hall, she began to suspect that someone she knew had robbed her.

But when the news about Yaofangtang's station spread again and she learned that Yu Lie was promoted to a high position, she still found it unbelievable, even ridiculous.

But after visiting the prescription hall in person, Pu Xing had to admit that the rumors were true, and she was sure that Yu Lie was the high-ranking Taoist boy who knocked her out without saying a word.

But at that time, Pu Xing had not yet accepted her fate.
