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 Luobotou 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.
Just as Luobotou said, the news in the town is indeed true.
Now the old and new 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 of going down the mountain.
As for those who are happy, it is those high-ranking Taoist boys who are full of confidence. Most of these people have been at the peak of the ninth level for a long time, waiting for the town to start training, and then succeed in one fell swoop, so that they can be promoted from ordinary Taoist boys to the eighth level.
Taoist disciple!
Among the acquaintances Yu Lie knew, She Shuangbai was the representative.
Therefore, after a while, Yu Lie appeared outside the Processing Hall. He suppressed his mood and planned to ask.
However, after waiting for a while, no high-ranking Taoist boy came out of the processing hall. Only 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 him to come out for an interview in person. He 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-ranking Taoist boy who was delivering the message. After casually giving some reward money, he hurried towards the dark street.
They arrived at the door of Fangfang's shop with ease, and Yu Lie got in. After half an hour, they walked out from inside.
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 he 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, and acted as their backstage in the town.
As a result, Lao Yutou and Guo Daoren's small shop now have Yu Lie to take over the business. They no longer need to be someone else's pawn, and 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. Guo Taoren, the shopkeeper, gave Yu Lie a surprise.
That is, without Yu Lie's instructions, Old Yutou had already ordered Taoist Guo to stock up on talismans, elixirs and other items.
After they set up shop, the prices continued to rise, one price a 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 over 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 medicine prescription hall.
Although Lao Yutou and the two men had prepared relevant talismans and common medicinal herbs 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 in the retreat before, unless the matter was urgent, he shouldn't have even said anything into the quiet room, otherwise Old Hutou would have alarmed him long ago.
It was precisely because of this that Old Hutou took Luobotou outside the quiet room. He stared at the stone door every day, and when he saw Yu Lie entering the gate, 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 improved level of alchemy, he has been able to divide the elixirs and refining steps he needs into several parts, and let the Taoist boys in the hall who have some alchemy skills accompany him to refine the elixirs.
Free labor is not used in vain.
In this way, except for the secret fire dragon elixir that Yu Lie needs to refine by himself, he can find someone to help with the rest of the elixirs.
In just 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 time he strengthened his troops.
Especially after the old beggar's guidance on alchemy, and the fire insect as an alchemy helper, Yu Lie's current level of alchemy is in some respects the same as that of a Taoist disciple at the end of the eighth rank.
The gunpowder he prepared does not need to be loaded in the form of a firearm. It is prepared into fire pills and fire powder according to the form convenient for people in the alchemy way!
