Chapter 18: Reading Poison Prescriptions in a Quiet Night
Song Danqing looked at the "Five Poisons Refining Zang Guidance Technique" held in Yu Lie's hand and said, "Fellow Daoist Yu, do you really want to choose this book?"
When Yu Lie heard this, the deliberately tangled look on his face became more obvious. He exhaled and held his hands towards Song Danqing:
"That's it. Brother Song, could you please help me find the real technique?"
With the bronze wine cup in hand, the Poison Art Guidance Technique is perfect for Yu Lie!
He read through many books, and found out that the guidance technique in his hand was the most powerful, and could eventually be cultivated into a special physique, which was comparable to several techniques such as swallowing sun essence and refining thunder and fire.
What's more important is that the "Five Poisons Refining Viscera Guidance Technique" is risky, and its corresponding training speed is also faster!
Yu Lie has been dormant for more than a year, and he now only has one and a half years left to catch up with the others. Once delayed, after three years, his situation will be even more difficult, and he may not even be able to leave Blackwater Town.
When Song Danqing saw that Yu Lie had made up his mind, he stopped saying anything, nodded towards Yu Lie, turned around and walked behind a row of bookshelves, and suddenly disappeared.
Yu Lie was stunned for a moment, and a moment later, another voice came from behind him.
Turning around, he saw Song Danqing standing behind him, holding a finger-thick incense candle in his hand and cupping it towards him.
Song Danqing offered the incense candle in his hand: "This incense is the carrier of the "Five Poisons Refining Internal Organs and Guidance Technique". When fellow Taoists go back, they can bathe and burn incense and smoke incense, and they will naturally understand its magical effects."
Yu Lie was surprised when he heard this.
Song Danqing explained: "The exercises on the third floor are all of the highest quality. It is difficult to guarantee that the disciples in the temple will have bad thoughts. Therefore, we do not use silk scripts to record them, but use letter incense as an introduction. This will also make it easier for fellow Taoists to remember them.
It saves you the trouble of memorizing memory..."
The other party also added: "This incense stick only contains the first layer of the technique. When Daoist Fellow Yu completes the next transformation, go to the Daolu Courtyard to register, and you can come to the building to get the second layer at any time."
When Yu Lie heard this, he happily took the incense candle from the other party's hand: "Thank you so much, Brother Song!"
Seeing how happy Yu Lie was, Song Danqing paused and then said: "Look, I seem to be older than you, so I will make it easier for you, Taoist Fellow Yu, to congratulate you on your promotion. As long as the incense candle is not in use, Fellow Daoist Yu can come to me."
, I can change the technique for you."
"Of course, you can only come in person, fellow Taoist." Song Danqing smiled.
When Yu Lie heard this, his eyes were surprised for a moment.
The exercises in the library are often not changed after leaving the counter. And Yu Lie also knows what the other party means, because he is worried that he will regret it after returning.
Yu Lie's face straightened, he held the incense in his hand, bowed his hands towards Song Danqing again, and said in a deep voice: "Yu Lie remembers it." This showed that he understood the other party's good intentions.
The smile on Song Danqing's face became even bigger, and she chatted with Yu Lie in detail for a while, and the two sides seemed to have become friends.
When it was time to leave, Yu Lie pondered and suddenly took out the last red talisman money from his sleeve and said:
"Brother Song, I still have a talisman coin from the Taoist Temple left on my body. I wonder if this one can be exchanged for one more skill, or can I go up to the fourth floor to learn more?"
The fourth floor is where the eighth-level Taoist disciples' skills are located. Yu Lie is not sure, so he simply asks first, lest he accidentally bumps into something upstairs and dies without knowing how.
Song Danqing looked at Yu Lie with surprised eyes. He shook his head and said, "No wonder Fellow Daoist Yu dares to choose this poisonous art. It seems that he has a solid foundation and confidence. It's the poor Taoist who just talked too much."
Yu Lie's caution was quite useful. Song Danqing laughed and explained that the fourth talisman cannot go up to the fourth floor, and he cannot choose another guidance technique.
But on the first, second and third floors of the building, in addition to the Guidance Technique, there are also other techniques, such as fists and kicks, swords and guns, beast hunting, breeding, scientific rituals, alchemy rooms, etc. You can choose another one from them, which is considered black.
Shui Guan's additional rewards for outstanding disciples.
This answer made Yu Lie a little disappointed, but he immediately felt satisfied.
Guidance skills cannot be practiced casually, one skill is enough. Simply going to the fourth floor to learn more is not as good as adding an extra skill or a book related to cultivation skills.
So under Song Danqing's recommendation, Yu Lie chose a book called "Mr. Wu Gui's Poison Prescriptions" without much hesitation.
This book covers poisons, antidotes, poisons, etc. in the upper, middle, and lower levels of Taoist realm. It involves a total of 108 types of poisons, 365 types of antidotes, and 1,080 types of poisons.
...much better than the herbal medicine books circulating in the market!
What's even more special is that this book was compiled by a senior in Guanzhong. Many of the poisons and drugs in it are products produced around Heishui Town and the Heishui River. They are particularly suitable for the rest of the list, and some locations are even marked.
Different from the simple Xinxiang, what Yu Lie got this time was a thick and big book, the size of a human head and as thick as a fist.
He held it in his hands and it felt heavy, and his heart was filled with joy.
For such a good book, the name is not surprising, and the simplified version only states the words "Poisonous Recipe, Second Renovation of Black Water Temple". If not for Song Danqing's careful introduction, Yu Lie might have missed it.
Yu Lie owns this book, which can not only assist him in practicing poison skills, but also help him get along better in the alchemy room!
This trip to the library immediately made Yu Lie feel particularly satisfied. He also sincerely thanked Song Danqing, so the two chatted again on the third floor.
The time was short, and after only half a cup of tea, the building of the library creaked, reminding Yu Lie that the closing time was approaching and it was time for Yu Lie to leave.
So Yu Lie carried the exercise books in his arms, bowed to Song Danqing, and quickly walked downstairs to leave.
On the third floor, Song Danqing looked at Yu Lie's back and narrowed his eyes slightly:
"This person has four power-selecting talisman coins, so he must have great potential. It seems that the poor man's day today is not in vain..."

He yawned and lazily retreated behind the counter to rest.
………………
On the other side, after Yu Lie left the library, the sky became even darker.
He turned around and saw that the library loft behind him was shaking, as if it was squirming, and there were unknown things swimming on the surface, which looked strange and eerie.
Yu Lie tightened his clothes and walked down the street with long strides.
As night falls, all the government offices are closed, but there are more pedestrians on Dancheng Street, and many tea shops and pubs are open lively.
The location of the quiet room is a bit far from the street, and it is a bit risky to run there. There are few hotels in the town, and I am not familiar with it.
He simply walked into a well-known dental agency and asked the other party to help him find a single-family house, preferably one where he could stay for a few days.
Opening at night is a good time for doing business in the town.
With Fu Qian opening the way, the tooth man smiled and held a red lantern, like a little ghost, guiding Yu Lie around in the middle of the shanty town and the brick and tile area.
The sounds in the house at night were chaotic, with laughter, shouts, and cries ringing in my ears.
Youya led the way, and Yu Lie didn't spend much time before he settled on a house and settled in there.
But when he sat cross-legged in the room and calmed down, Yu Lie suddenly felt too deserted and empty, so he patted his head, carried his things again, and went out to buy sundries.
It wasn't until late at night that Yu Lie returned to his rental house.
He bought some pots, pans, bedding, incense and candles, and even went to South Street to spend two coins to bring back the black mynah that had not yet been slaughtered and eaten.
Sitting down cross-legged again, Yu Lie listened to the sound of the starlings pecking hurriedly and looked at the house that had gained a bit of popularity, with a smile from the bottom of his heart on his face.
This is the first time Yu Lie has lived in such a spacious and quiet room since he left his hometown in Qianjun.
The house was not big or sturdy, and he only rented it for ten days and a half, but Yu Lie felt a rare sense of security in his heart.
Looking at the bloated Starling, Yu Lie knocked the Starling on the head and taught, "This is a new home!"
After that, he spread out the book and began to read the poison prescription while shaking his head.
The silhouettes of a person and a bird are mottled in the candlelight.
