Fairy cage

Yu Lie looked at Mr. Fang standing in front of him and understood completely.

This old guy is not testing him or interviewing him, but just trying to trick him!

The other party doesn't want Yu Lie to enter the prescription hall!

Yu Lie also suddenly understood that it was no wonder that after the death of the previous Taoist boy, this old man left his position vacant for several months and never accepted new people. The other party must have selected a candidate early in the process, or sold the position privately.

Now that Yu Lie entered the alchemy room with a sign, there was only one vacant high-level position, which immediately hindered the other party's arrangement.

What's even more hateful is that this old guy still wants to use words to fool Yu Lie into obeying the arrangement and get a low-level position, give up on his own initiative, and not bear any grudge against the other party.

It should be noted that once a low-level position is selected and the pit is occupied, will it really be as easy as the other party said if Yu Lie wants to escape?

Mr. Fang stood in front of Yu Lie, continued to stroke his beard, and whispered softly: "Have you thought about your future life?" His appearance was more kind.

At this time, the two people leading the way, Guan Toubi, wisely lowered their heads and remained silent, watching their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses.

Only the whispers among the other hall masters in the cave continued to sound, but no one stood up to speak to Yu Lie.

Yu Lie accepted Mr. Fang's kind gaze, gritted his teeth and said:

"Thank you, Mr. Fang, for your concern, but I don't want to work at the bottom!"

Yu Lie didn't hesitate and stated his words directly, leaving no room for misinterpretation.

In the Taoist's entire career, he basically only had this one chance to be assigned. If he fell in the courtyard, he would be flowers, plants and jade trees, and if he fell in the manure pit, he would be a fly, dung beetle.

Even if Yu Lie is sitting on the bench in the prescription hall, it is better than working in many low-level positions because he can read a lot of prescriptions.

Even if there is a chance to change it as the other party said, the delay will be measured in years, or even a lifetime. This is why Yu Lie held back for more than a year before accepting his job.

Fang Lao was caught off guard when he heard Yu Lie's answer. The expression on his face froze and he looked at Yu Lie with squinted eyes.

"Hahaha!" There was loud laughter in the cave.

The hall masters who were chatting in low voices finally couldn't help but comment: "This young man is quite interesting. No wonder he got the bronze medal for coming to the alchemy room."

"Lao Yutou's cultivation level is a bit lacking, but his eyesight is really good."

Others deliberately said: "Tsk tsk! Old Fang, this young man has such an independent opinion, just obey him!"

Another person praised: "That's right! Your godson doesn't have this post-generator. He has taken the exam so many times, but he just didn't get the qualification from Daolu Academy! Mud can't hold up the wall!"

Listening to the insinuations and teasing of his colleagues behind him, Mr. Fang directly tore off several of his beards and his face squirmed.

There was loud laughter in the cave, and the leading boy and Guantoubi stood at the door, tying their heads lower and not daring to move.

Having been exposed by the other hall masters behind him, Mr. Fang simply stared at Yu Lie with a smile, and spoke again:

"I ask you again, which low-level position do you want? Can Pindao compensate you appropriately?"

Yu Lie stopped talking and hesitated.

But Mr. Fang didn't even give Yu Lie any time to hesitate.

"whee!"

Fang Lao twisted his neck, his bones made a rattling sound, and his voice became thin and high-pitched. His body was elongated, looking down at the remaining columns. His shadow took on the shape of a crane, which was quite huge and suppressed all the remaining columns.

Heying opened his mouth full of fine teeth:

"Young man, speak."

The cold feeling on Yu Lie's body became more and more serious. He gritted his teeth and carried it, and suddenly cursed this person in his heart:

"This old man is so shameless! If you don't want me to go to Yaofangtang, why can't you find me another equivalent position?"

Facing the threat, Yu Lie wanted to burst out on the spot, slap the opponent to death with one claw, and tear the old man's hateful face to pieces.

Someone in the cave spoke out what was on his mind for Yu Lie: "Hey! This shameless old guy can't be coaxed, and he can't keep his face, so he just threatens him shamelessly. He has no dignity or dignity."

Others sneered: "Tsk tsk! It's just a position, why do you get to this? It's so shameless."

"Lao Fang, Lao Fang, you can accept this person first and then find a way to kill him."

However, although the hall masters were sneering, they had no intention of interfering and were just watching for fun.

Yu Lie's heart grew colder and colder as he listened to the hall masters' words.

He calmly evaluated in his heart:

"Although I am now a second-transformed person with a solid foundation, compared with the upper-level Taoist boys who have been transformed into the fourth-transformed body, the gap is still large and difficult to make up...it is not easy to offend too much, otherwise it will be dangerous to enter."

Those who can become hall masters in the alchemy room, although they are not eighth-grade Taoist disciples, are still high-ranking among ninth-grade Taoist boys, and have completed the four transformations of the Taoist realm!

Yu Lie and the old man were in the same realm, but he was still two transformations away from the other person.

Moreover, these hall masters are in the alchemy room and have a lot of oil and water, so they must have a lot of tricks.

If Yu Lie continues to fight for it, he will be taking risks and it will be unwise.

So, bang!

Yu Lie's body shook, and the bronze medal in his hand fell to the ground, surprising everyone.

His face "turned" pale, and his next words made many hall masters lose interest:

"Young man, I don't know what's going on, so you're talking nonsense."

Yu Lie stammered as he spoke. He stooped deliberately, lowered his head and picked up the bronze medal from the alchemy room, and said:

"Young man is blind, and you are not satisfied with Mr. Fang's favor. I hope Mr. Fang can forgive this disrespectful boy..."

Yu Lie's voice became lower and lower.

When Mr. Fang listened to Yu Lie's words, he raised his eyebrows and the cold expression on his face faded slightly: "Young man, you really need to show some color."

The man touched his beard, squinted his eyes, and stared at the bronze medal in Yu Lie's hand, his eyes bright.

Fang Laozheng thought quietly: "What those old guys said makes sense. It's been a few months, and the trash at home still can't pass the test of Daolu Courtyard. It's better not to bother the two masters at all and just borrow this kid now." Bronze medal?”

"When this kid gets to the bottom, it will be useless for him to hold the bronze medal. If it is left in his hand, it may give him bad hopes and only increase misfortune."

Fang Lao's mind suddenly moved: "The people in the Taoist Academy are stubborn and don't want to deal with me. But the low-ranking Taoist boy in front of me, and that old man Yutou... Hey, I have been offended now."

It turned out that Mr. Fang had been eyeing the bronze medal in Yu Lie's hand early on. He coaxed Yu Lie to work at the bottom. Not only did he prevent Yu Lie from entering the Yaofang Hall, but he also planned to wait for Yu Lie to accept his fate and then earn Yu Lie's bronze medal. Figure it out slowly.

Now that most of his intentions have been revealed, this person is not prepared to wait any longer.

Mr. Fang coughed lightly and said calmly: "You can teach a kid!"

The other party paused, then stared at Yu Lie and said, "However, your temperament is too stubborn and you still need to polish it off."

These words stunned Yu Lie.

Polish and polish?

Yu Lie raised his eyes and glanced at Mr. Fang in front of him, and noticed that the other man was looking at the bronze medal in his hand, staring at it, thinking about something.

Yu Lie's eyelids twitched slightly, and he immediately thought of a possibility.

Maybe this old man not only didn't want him to be admitted to the Yaofang Hall, but also took a fancy to his bronze medal and wanted to take away his qualifications?

If you have a bronze medal, you will not be admitted to the Medicine Hall. If there is any shortage in the future, the rest of the list may be able to replace it. This is a hope. And without the bronze medal, even if Qinggui's position becomes available in the future, he will not have an entry certificate.

A cold feeling arose in Yu Lie's heart, and he was filled with anger. He also felt ridiculous, but at first glance he thought this beast had a benevolent look.

But Yu Lie's mind is getting calmer and calmer. According to the old man, he didn't give himself any time to hesitate just now. Yu Lie realized that even if he refused again, the other party could come up with nonsense reasons and forcibly take away his bronze medal!

Even if he can't take it away now, Mr. Fang will never let him go in the future.

Yu Lie lowered his eyes and thought. He suppressed his anger, calmed down in his anger, and simply made a bold test.

He bowed his head and said before snatching the other person away: "Young man is ignorant, it's all up to Mr. Fang to make the decision."

Yu Lie took the initiative to hold the bronze medal in his hand and said, "I hope Mr. Fang has enough to make a decision for me."

He respectfully offered the bronze medal to the other party, giving the other party a chance to accept it. But I didn't say it directly to the other party, so as not to misunderstand it and suffer a huge loss, or to flatter the horse's hooves.

When Mr. Fang heard Yu Lie's words and saw Yu Lie's movements, his eyes froze, and his hand holding his beard froze.

As expected, the man touched his beard, his eyes showed surprise, his face looked like a chameleon, and his eyes when looking at Yu Lie instantly became kind.

Yu Lie took the initiative to hand him the bronze medal, which directly saved him the effort of finding reasons and made him look better.

Old Fang retracted his head and neck and returned to the appearance of a kind-looking old man. He said again: "Have a good life."

Mr. Fang looked at Yu Lie's bronze medal, paused and said:

"Polishing is polishing, but... Pindao's promise just now is still valid. If you do well in the alchemy room, and there is a chance, Pindao will definitely promote you into the prescription hall! Later, when you join the job, there will be people I'll take care of you. For those low-level positions, you can go down and think about it slowly, it's your choice."

When Yu Lie heard this, he looked happy, and his face showed signs of color recovery. He held the bronze medal and saluted quickly: "Thank you, Mr. Fang, thank you, Mr. Fang."

Mr. Fang nodded kindly and inadvertently took the bronze medal away from Yu Lie's hand. He coughed lightly and said, "You belong to me, so I will keep this alchemy room bronze medal for you first."

At this time, Mr. Fang's face was filled with joy and his eyes were kind, and he could not see the violent and threatening look just now.

After he finished speaking, as if he was afraid of causing more trouble, he jumped up and fell directly back to the cauldron deep in the cave.

Then, the voice of the old man came: "We have already bowed at the top of the mountain. Please step back later! Young students must choose their positions carefully and cannot be in a hurry."

The other party also kindly warned: "You can't wander around in this important place! That boy who leads the way, please lead the way for me, a young man like me."

The howling wind gently pushed Yu Lie and others out.

But when Yu Lie looked inside the cave, he felt that it was deep and dark. The figures inside were like ghosts, and their eyes were obscure.

Hearing this, the leading road boy and Guantoubi quickly lowered their heads and saluted. Among them, Guan Toubi also inadvertently gently tugged at the remaining columns.

The boy leading the way made a promise and called out: "I wish you and the superiors that the elixir will be effective and I will retire."

After saying that, the other party turned around, walked quickly in small steps, and retreated as if running away.

Yu Lie also immediately saluted, shouted: "Thank you, Mr. Fang!" and then silently retreated.

………………

When Yu Lie's figure also disappeared, Fang Lao's chuckle sounded in the cave:

"Young man, I guess he knows what's going on."

"Also, a mere Taoist boy, he knows shit about alchemy! Haha, let him choose whether to choose or not. Could it be that he has read too many books and thought that he is smart?"

The other hall masters also burst into laughter as they listened.
