Fairy cage

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 the prison for half a year, but when the day came for him to be released from prison, he still felt like he was in another world.

Especially before Yu Lie walked out of the lobby of the Yamen, the people outside were noisy and shouting, which was completely opposite to the situation he had sneaked out a few times before.

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

In particular, the Taoist boys 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However, because Yu Lie had "withdrawn his capital" long ago, he no longer had any money to invest in Lao Yutou and Guo Daoren.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 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 treasure land and such a master have come to an end with the rest of them for the time being. It was time for him to pack his mind and prepare for his next 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, there was considerable isolation between the mountains and the mountains, so news about him 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 stunned 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 cards 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 others!

It's just that the four of them are now very proud, 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 silly monkey, why are you calling Yu Tou'er? You just called Brother Yu a little kid, now you should call him 'Hall 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 loud, covering up all 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 members of his own family.

And he, Yu Lie, is the one who will be welcomed with gongs and drums and the streets cleared!

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

But at this time, four tall, short, fat and thin people were already leading 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! Bad luck, go away!"

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 at the yamen entrance.

All they had to do was place 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 chanted by the poisonous mouth Taoist boys, and clearly seeing the big words "greeting" and "taking office" raised by the poisonous mouth Taoist boys, 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 all around.

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 dignity.

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 mortals passing by, and their expressions changed drastically.

But none of the poisonous Taoist boys took the tiger seriously. Yu Lie walked up to the tiger and patted him. The energy and blood on his body showed, and he almost frightened the tiger to the ground.

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

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

Bang bang bang!

The reception that Luobotou, Lao Hutou and others prepared 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!

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

Behind him were a crowd of Taoist boys in black robes, all of them fierce. There are also big signs on both sides saying "Welcome to take office", and every time you walk a certain distance, a section of the street is disturbed.

The voice was loud and swaggering.

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 worthy of celebration, and it is worthy of being celebrated by 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 made up for him immediately without any instructions from him.

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, talking to the Luobotou people as he walked.

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, he won the position of Yaofangtang, and got the approval of his 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 in jail to get benefits. They all thought that Yu Lie was punished by Dan Tu because he plotted against the Fang family and his son, and killed Fang Wu Mu 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 this time also 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 team forward.

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

Among them was a tall, thin, black-skinned Taoist boy. He stood in the corner with his sleeves rolled up and tried to make a 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 face was slightly pale.

There were few pedestrians on the street, and the wind blew, causing the bronze medal around the female monk's waist to sway. This person's status is not low, he is 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.

If Yu Lie can be promoted to a high position among the soldiers, then Pu Xing can too!

But half a year later... Pu Xing fought fiercely at the foot of the mountain for a long time, and she was very dedicated to her career. Not to mention being promoted to a high-ranking Taoist, because of her radicalism, she was injured many times, which damaged her vitality.

Today's Pu Xing is still only in the middle position, and even the change of copper ribs and iron bones has not been completely digested, and it has been delayed.

Complex emotions surged in her chest, and Pu Xing suddenly coughed violently. A female Taoist girl next to her quickly stepped forward and handed over a handkerchief.

"Need not!"

Pu Xing wiped the corners of her mouth with her hands, wiped the blood on her body, and scratched the smooth brocade robe with her rough fingers.

There was a ruthless look on her face:

"High-ranking Taoist boy, Master of Medicine Prescription Hall, you Yu Lie can do it, but I, Pu Xing, may not really be able to do it!"

Pu Xing said nothing, turned away from Yu Lie and others, and walked away.

In the corner next to him, Shan Daotong was leaning against the wall with his head shrinking. He looked at Pu Xing's scene and shook his head secretly.

"Why bother? Isn't it because there were so many people that I didn't see you? You could just come up to me by yourself. It was you who insisted on coming over and even changed your clothes."

Shan Daotong murmured in his heart, his eyes rolled again, and he secretly said:

"Brother Yu is now the master of the hall. If you don't rely on such a backer, it will be in vain! If you don't go, I will go by myself later."

Shan Daotong began to think about how he would sneak into the alchemy room and give Yu Lie a gift as a gift.

………………

The other side.

Yu Lie led a group of others, got off the tiger in front of the alchemy room, and then led the people out of the medicine prescription hall.

Behind him, there were a total of thirty-four people, all of whom were poisonous Taoist boys. Some of them came back to the town after going down the mountain, some were old and never went down the mountain at all, and there were very few of the latter.

While walking, Yu Lie was also discussing things with Mr. Hu.

He planned to move the entire Dukou Taoist family to the Medicine Hall in one fell swoop. As for those who don't want to go to Yaofangtang and want to be a coward among poisonous people, just let them go.

When Mr. Hu and Luobotou heard the news, although they had expected it, they looked at each other and were still very excited.

"Brother Yu is wise!"

As for the other poisonous Taoist boys, after hearing the conversation, they were overjoyed and showed unimaginable surprise.

It should be noted that compared with the Prescription Hall, the Medicine Hall is a noble place!

Although there are also dangerous jobs, such as testing prescriptions. But they are all members of the hall master's team. Even if they can't get the position of small boss in the past, at least everyone can get a comfortable job.

Because of the large number of soldiers, several of the most prestigious positions in the Carrot Pit in Yaofangtang have also died. Maybe they still have a chance to take advantage!

"Yao Fang Tang, my God!", "It seems that the reward from the leader is the biggest this time!"

For a moment, the poisonous Taoist boys looked excited and chattered, almost celebrating.

Only Old Hutou was happy for a while. He looked around and suddenly lowered his voice and said to Yu Lie:

"Brother, I heard that there are only a few people in the Yaofang Hall. We have more than thirty people in the poison mouth. Can we arrange it? If all the people in the poison mouth are taken away, Hall Master She's place..."

Yu Lie heard what Old Hutou said and said calmly: "Don't worry, I have my own considerations."

He suddenly asked with a half-smile:

"Mr. Hu, by the way, do the people at Yaofangtang know that I am out of seclusion today?"

Old Hutou's face suddenly choked up, but after looking at Yu Lie's face, he nodded bravely.

After receiving Lao Hutou's response, Yu Lie smiled and said, "That's right."

The smile on his face was normal, but if the people in Yaofangtang heard the words in his mouth, they would turn gray with fear.

"If there is no place in the prescription hall, then let them make way for it. Pindao doesn't believe it. No matter how small the number of people is in the huge lobby, there won't even be room for people in a small entrance!"

Yu Lie added casually:

"Just replace a few more, and then send them to Hall Master She to extract the poison, and help the poison mouth to increase the manpower..."
