The person who suddenly appeared in the alchemy room was none other than the loan shark sissy!
When Yu Lie saw that the other person had arrived at the place where he was working, he frowned slightly, wondering what this person's intentions were.
Threaten him? Or come over to see if he is really working in the alchemy room?
When Taoist Gaoli saw Yu Lie, he covered his mouth, waved his hands quickly, and said with a smile:
"Don't get me wrong, brother Yu, please don't misunderstand me. We just come to the alchemy room to have a meal. The dining hall in the alchemy room is really good. We are not here to cause trouble for brother Yu. Otherwise,
We won’t come here just now.”
Gao Li explained: "I just remembered that Brother Yu was in the alchemy room, so I stopped by to say hello."
He stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling person. After hearing the other person's explanation, Yu Lie relaxed his brows.
He cupped his hands with a calm expression: "In that case, I will just send my fellow Taoist on his way."
When Taoist Gaoli heard this, he smiled from ear to ear again: "Very good, very good."
After saying that, Yu Lie turned around and went back, cleaned up the poison's mouth briefly, and then closed the mouth.
Together with Gao Li and others, Yu Lie saw him off and walked all the way outside the alchemy room.
On the way, the two of them flirted with each other and had small talk.
Until he separated from Gao Li, the other party really didn't show any clues. He was always friendly and congenial. He even praised Yu Lie for being the leader of the alchemy room at such a young age, and that he must have a bright future.
But Yu Lie stood at the door of the alchemy room, looking at the other person's disappearing back, and frowned secretly again.
Gao Li came to visit for no reason, which made Yu Lie always feel that something was wrong. But after thinking about it carefully, he found nothing wrong.
As a last resort, Yu Lie narrowed his eyes slightly and could only suppress this strange feeling first, and then slowly explore it.
But he also thought about it secretly:
“It seems that we can’t just pay back the interest next month.
It would be best to repay all the loan sharks, including the principal and interest. In this way, even if this guy wants to plot against me, it will be difficult for him to do so..."
Yu Lie has now digested the changes of "like a wolf and a tiger" and does not need the spiritual fish soup medicine for the time being. He can make money in the next time and sell all the black snake fish he caught.
In addition, his current strength has also greatly increased, he has seen blood, and has sold black snake fish in the market, so he will undoubtedly be more calm.
Under the dim moonlight, Yu Lie walked toward his stone house while thinking.
After arriving home, he had already thought clearly in his mind:
"There are still six or seven days until the date of repayment, so this can be done!"
Although the loan shark debt he owed was large, it was far less than the coffin book that Yu Lie brought to the town. It was only a portion of his original net worth.
In addition, when he borrowed the money, Yu Lie was just a human being. Now he is about to become a middle-level Taoist boy, and he has a rare treasure to help him, so it is not difficult to repay it.
So in the next few days.
Yu Lie worked as usual, with nothing unusual on the surface. At night, he increased the number of trips back and forth between the town and the Black River.
Because the number of trips back and forth increased, it was easy to attract the attention of others, so Yu Lie bought a few more outfits for this purpose. He would change his outfit every time he came back, and he would also change to a different place to sell fish.
He would only bring back one black snake fish every time, never two. He would never return more than three times on the same night.
After being so careful and careful, after five or six days, plus what he had saved for most of the month, Yu Lie estimated that he had collected enough money for the talisman, and he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
That night, he rarely covered his head and fell asleep so that his tired body could rest.
………………
The next evening.
Yu Lielong is so powerful that he has a huge sum of money and is about to pay it back.
As soon as he opened the courtyard door, a person he didn't expect appeared in his eyes again.
I saw a dark and skinny Taoist boy blocking the door of Yu Lie, looking bored.
When the other party heard the sound of the door opening, he turned around, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said familiarly: "Hey! I didn't run away in vain, brother Yu is really at home. If he doesn't come out, I'll have to call the door and try."
The visitor bowed towards Yu Lie, then extended his hand to invite: "Please, I will take you to the bank right now."
Yu Lie raised his eyebrows and returned the greeting: "I've met fellow Taoist Shan."
This dark and thin man was Shan Daotong, one of Yu Lie's neighbors when he was in Zayuan.
Yu Lie felt surprised in his heart: "When did this single Taoist boy get involved with the loan shark and become a loan shark?"
However, when he thought that Shan Daotong was now eggless, and Gao Li was also a sissy, with the nickname of eunuch, it was quite appropriate for the two of them to be together.
Maybe, the reason why Gao Li castrated Shan Daotong in the first place was that he had a crush on him and wanted to take him under his command and get him a little eunuch to keep him company.
Sure enough, as the two of them walked along, Shan Daotong returned to his frivolous and chatty appearance, and began to boast:
"Pindao no longer works in the dirty place of the animal hospital. He is doing things for Taoist friend Gaoli. Hey, the bank is quite grand, and the wages are more than the animal hospital. When I become rich, brother Yu, don't worry, you will pay for this
The money is trivial..."
Not long after, the two came to the door of the "Qianzhuang" mentioned by Shan Daotong.
Somewhat different from the rough and dark Blackwater Town, the bank looks bright and shiny.
There is a pair of large black stone gluttons at the door, showing their filial piety and showing their teeth. The walls of Zhuangzi are also covered with tight stone bricks, and the plaque on the door is wiped clean and gilded with red, which reads "Wealth comes from the east".
Compared with other shops in the town, this shop undoubtedly makes people feel rich and wealthy at first glance.
This was not the first time that Yu Lie came to this place. He knew that this shop also had a pawn shop business. However, as Shan Daotong led Yu Lie into the shop, Yu Lie gradually saw the different inside of the shop.
As soon as they entered the depths of the shop, the air became fishy and the walls were mottled and rough, with stains that looked like blood stains all over the stone bricks the two of them walked through.
Faint screams came from the small dark stone houses on the left and right. The voices were from men and women, and there were also the sounds of gasping.
"No, don't! I'll give it back, I'll give it back!!"
The deeper you go inside, the louder and more obvious the sounds become. The sounds of wailing, begging for mercy, and regrets continue to sound.
Shan Daotong led the way with a smile, secretly looking at Yu Lie's face, he seemed to want to see Yu Lie's joke.

But Yu Lie has been working in the alchemy room for a month and has seen many scenes, so naturally he will not be frightened by this kind of scene.
However, when passing by a doorway, Shan Daotong's expression was slightly stern and his steps couldn't help but speed up. Yu Lie looked up curiously and glanced over, his eyes narrowing slightly.
This doorway is also dark and dim inside, but Yu Lie can see clearly at a glance.
I saw hooks like fish hooks, hanging on the shelves. One after another, naked bodies were being penetrated through the cheeks, wrists, and collarbones. They were hung on the shelves like chicken, duck, and fish meat.
Leave it to dry.
These physical bodies are all human bodies, all white and flowery.
Yu Lie squinted his eyes slightly and realized that the inside of this bank may be even more cruel than the alchemy room. After all, although the alchemy room does not care about life, it can cover up a few things at least, and it is not so unscrupulous.
After only a pause in his steps, Yu Lie remained silent and continued to follow the single boy walking inside.
Finally, noisy sounds appeared in the ears of the two of them, and the air changed from a fishy smell to a sweat smell, mostly a slutty smell.
Yu Lie raised his eyes and looked over, seeing a crowded crowd in his eyes.
Everyone was shouting and shouting, surrounding a square table, eating tea, drinking and teasing.
Such a noisy and crowded environment made Yu Lie slightly raise his eyebrows, and he asked the single boy next to him: "A gambling house?"
The single Taoist boy on the side did not answer Yu Lie's question, but just nodded. The other party was looking at the center of the casino with his head in his hands, a look of relish on his cheeks.
In the center of the gambling house is a sunken earth altar, more than ten steps wide, which is a deep pit. Everyone in the gambling house is outside the pit, as if they are on a theater floor.
There were two black shadows hovering in the altar of earth, and they kept making roaring sounds. However, the sound just now was covered up by the shouts of the crowd, so Yu Lie did not notice it immediately.
Tsk!
A blood arrow suddenly spurted out from the deep pit, reaching a height of three or four people, and splashed directly on the faces of everyone outside the pit. The bloody smell was strong at the scene, causing a burst of excited screams.
Immediately afterwards, the crowd at the scene fell silent again, and a loud roar came from the deep pit!
Roar!
As soon as this sharp roar sounded, more than half of the crowd instantly became excited, and some people even overturned the tables.
"Yes! Die, die well! Haha!"
Some people yelled: "Damn it! What a waste!"
Shan Daotong also said: "What a coincidence! It just happened that this round of gambling was over. Fortunately, I didn't press, otherwise I would have lost just now."
Listening to the whispers in the other person's mouth, Yu Lie looked around and understood immediately.
That deep pit is not a decoration, but a gambling pit! The gambling in this gambling house is not ordinary dice and cards, but fighting animals.
To be more precise, it’s a human beast!
Because right in the gambling pit, there was a ferocious tiger, its body tangled with muscles and muscles, its teeth stained with blood, greedily chewing on a headless corpse.
The headless corpse was dressed in Taoist robes, its opened head rolled aside, its facial features were distorted, its eyes were still open, and its face was gray.
Yu Lie calmly withdrew his gaze, his heart slightly cold:
"What are this guy, and that Gauri, bringing me here for..."
