Fairy cage

Shouwu worshiper sat cross-legged in front of Yu Lie and Miaomu, and described the importance of the recommendation letter in detail, which made Yulie and Miaomu feel excited.

After Yu Lie and Miaomu looked at each other, Yu Lie still spoke out and asked tentatively:

"Shouwu worship means that we can get two letters of recommendation from you?"

Hearing these words, Shouwu worshiper showed a wrinkled smile on his face, and said reservedly:

"Of course, I see that you two have such an opportunity at such a young age and have practiced Taoism for ten years. Although you are all grassroots, compared to ordinary people in Tao City, you are also diligent and have a good character. The probability of being selected must be higher. I think it can be so."

The old Taoist praised Yu Lie and Miaomu for a few words, then changed the subject and suddenly said:

"However, although Pindao was born in the Taoist palace, he is only a Taoist official. The number of people he can recommend every year cannot be too many, only two or three. And even if the candidates recommended in the past cannot be worshiped in the Taoist palace, they cannot be too helpless. Don’t go up the wall, otherwise the Taoist palace will reduce the effect of Pindao’s recommendation.”

Shouwu worshiper stared at the Chizhen secret sand in Yu Lie's hand, with a smile on his face and said nothing.

Such behavior made Yu Lie and Miaom understand immediately.

Although a piece of red true secret sand the size of a quail egg cannot be exchanged for two transformation medicines, it can be exchanged for two letters of recommendation. The other party's intention was to let them exchange the secret sand with them.

A look of confusion immediately appeared in the eyes of the two remaining men.

They originally came to exchange medicines, but now they have to exchange them for two flimsy letters that cannot be eaten or drunk?

But the words mentioned just now about the Shouwu worship really made Yu Lie and Miaomu's hearts move.

In an instant, thoughts swirled in the minds of the two of them:

"If during the assessment, I not only find the medicinal materials that have transformed, but also successfully pass the assessment, it will be great to have this letter of recommendation."

"Even if the medicinal materials are not picked during the assessment, as long as they can pass the assessment, with the help of this recommendation letter, the possibility of entering the Taoist Palace will be greatly increased!"

They thought about it and found that when both of them could not break through and become lower-level Taoist disciples, choosing a letter of recommendation was indeed a good choice. It could simultaneously increase the probability of them joining the Taoist palace.

But there are also great risks. If they fail the assessment by then, this recommendation letter will become a blank piece of paper and useless!

In the midst of the tangle, Yu Lie suddenly felt something in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "May I ask, sir, how many years can this recommendation letter last?"

Miaomu pricked up his ears when he heard this question.

While disappointing, Shouwu worshiped with a smile and just stretched out a finger: "One year."

The other party explained: "Although it is called a letter of recommendation, I will indeed give you a letter of paper as proof. But in fact, I am the guarantee for you, and you must report it to the ghosts and gods of the Dao Palace in advance. Several times a year, it is appropriate Less is better than more.”

The other party's words immediately made Yu Lie and Miaom's minds sink.

Yu Lie refused to give up and asked again: "How dare you ask the chief, how many times can you control this red true secret sand?"

Naturally, what he meant was that by using this red secret sand, he could get several recommendations for Shouwu worship, and whether the other party had a "refundable" service.

But it is a pity that the old Taoist narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Young man, if the internal recommendation qualifications of the Tao Palace are discussed in terms of spiritual stones, how many spiritual stones do you think are needed?"

The man snorted coldly and said: "Even if you are a member of the same clan, you must have at least two thousand spirit stones! There are even five thousand spirit stones, and you may not be able to find someone."

As soon as these words came out, Yu Lie and Miaomu's hearts sank again.

Two thousand spirit stones are equivalent to Yu Lie's salary of more than ten years now, which is really expensive. But based on this calculation, the value of the two letters of recommendation is at least four thousand, which is equivalent to the quail-sized piece of Chizhen Secret Sand.

However, these words were only spoken from the mouth of Shouwu Zongdu, and whether they are true or false has not yet been determined.

Yu Lie and Miaom looked at each other a few more times, with hesitation still in their eyes.

If the Akazhen Secret Sand worth so many spiritual stones were exchanged for two one-time letters of recommendation, they would really be reluctant to part with it.

So after seeing the hesitation in Miaomu's eyes, Yu Lie took a deep breath and said, "I understand."

He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you Shouwu Worshiper for informing me about this matter, but it is of great importance. Please allow me to wait and discuss it carefully with the Taoist Master."

Seeing that Yu Lie suddenly retreated, Shouwu Worshiper frowned and said again: "If the Chizhen Secret Sand hadn't happened to be useful to me, you wouldn't have had this opportunity."

This guy tempted the two of them: "Actually, it's not just the opportunity to obtain medicinal materials during the assessment. What's more important is that if you successfully enter the Tao Palace, transformation materials and other things will be easier to obtain than in the outside world. get.

You are still young, so you must not delay. "

But Yu Lie calmed down, no matter how tempted the other party was, he would not dare to agree on the spot when it involved thousands of spirit stones, not to mention that not all of the spirit stones belonged to him.

At the very least, they still have to inquire in private to avoid being tricked by this old guy.

"Thank you, Taoist Priest, for reminding me. I will give you an answer as soon as possible when we find out."

Yu Lie made a statement, and Miaomu, who had been silent all this time, naturally followed him and immediately handed over the Shouwu enshrinement, intending to leave.

As a result, when they saw that the two of them were really about to retreat, the old man who worshiped Shouwu showed hesitation.

Gritting his teeth, Shouwu worship suddenly said to the remaining two people:

"Well, it seems that you are indeed young talents. I can make an exception here. If you don't succeed in the first year, you can come to Pindao to ask for letters of recommendation next year. Each of you will only be charged five hundred spirit stones for your hard work. Just pay the fee.”

Although the old Taoist was already gritting his teeth and showing a look of displeasure.

But Yu Lie understood that whether they exchanged the Chizhen secret sand for medicinal materials or exchanged it for letters of recommendation in the hands of this experienced person, the former would be counted towards the operation of the store, while the latter would probably be this person's free money.

Still need to discuss!

So Yu Lie raised his eyelids slightly, lowered his head and said: "Only one year? Can it be ten years, or until I am thirty? There is also the price..."

But the Shouwu enshrinement interrupted Yu Lie's bargaining, and suddenly stretched out three fingers and snorted coldly:

"Then three years, just three years! Three hundred spiritual stones per person per time, this is already the biggest concession for Pindao."

After saying this, he waved his sleeves and removed the isolation spell surrounding the three of them. After saying a few words, he immediately walked away:

"You will think it over carefully after you go down, and then come to Pindao after you have thought it through. But if you choose to exchange the medicine, you can just go to the people below, and there is no need to go to Pindao."

Hearing this, Yu Lie and Miaom secretly thought:

"It seems that what this person just said may be true. The value of the recommendation letter may be almost the same as the last conditions stated by the other party."

The last words of the Shouwu worshiper were not only addressed to the remaining two people, but also to the shopkeeper on duty who heard the sound.

After the Shouwu enshrinement left, the Taoist disciple who was on duty immediately stepped forward, but he was still polite. Seeing that Yu Lie and the others were about to say goodbye, the other party politely sent them off and walked out of the store.

After completely leaving the Qianlin Chamber of Commerce's pharmacy, Yu Lie and Miaomu found a deserted corner and communicated in private.

After some discussion, they found that they were already inclined to exchange secret sand for letters of recommendation.

After all, if you are unable to break through and become a lower-level Taoist disciple, although choosing letters of recommendation may lead to nothing, the possibility of success is also quite high.

Especially since both of them are currently under eighteen years old, even if they fail this year, they will definitely be able to join the Taoist Palace within the next two years. Regarding this, they are all confident after having practiced Taoism for ten years.

Perhaps the Shouwu worshiper also understood this. Seeing that the two of them were likely to be admitted to the Taoist palace, he gave the letter of recommendation as a condition.

As he spoke, Miaomu's face was ready to move, and he said in a low voice: "In this case, Brother Yu, why don't I go and change the secret sand now, so that I can prepare for the assessment early."

When Yu Lie heard this, he paused for a moment and then said calmly: "To be on the safe side, you and I should first inquire about the weight of the recommendation letter and its value in the market. Anyway, it will only take a few days."

There was hesitation on Miaom's face, but he didn't refute and nodded immediately.

Just when Yu Lie was about to discuss with the other party which shops they should go to together, Miaomu suddenly said:

"Brother Yu, leave the inquiries in the market to me, and you and I will go our separate ways. Didn't you say that you have an elder brother in the city who is also taking the Dao Palace exam? Go and ask him, and you should be able to understand. of more.”

These words reminded Yu Lie.

Yu Fenggao and his sister-in-law Luo Sen were the first to tell him about the recommendation letter. Since the other two people know it, they must also know the specific value of the recommendation letter. It's even possible that Master Yu Feng has other channels to exchange letters of recommendation more cheaply!

Yu Lie's spirit perked up and he thought again: "I remember that my cousin seemed to have failed the last time because he didn't have a letter of recommendation... From this point of view, we must go find him!"

Immediately, Yu Lie agreed with the "split action" proposed by Miaom.

But immediately, he hesitated again, and the message came: "In that case, the Chizhen Secret Sand should be placed first..."

Before he could say anything, Miaomu had a faint smile on his face, stepped back slightly, and said via voice: "This thing is naturally placed in the hands of fellow Taoists first. Without further ado, you and I will be there as early as tonight. See you in the hotel."

As soon as she finished speaking, the female Taoist cupped her hands towards Yu Lie and left.

But Yu Lie stood there, squinting at the other person's leaving figure, and suddenly realized that this woman now trusted him so much that she dared to put such treasures in his hands first.

Yu Lie glanced at the large pharmacy not far away and thought to himself: "Aren't you afraid that Pindao will go into the store now and kill the person first and then pay for it in exchange for a medicine?"

Note: Compared with letters of recommendation, personal conduct is more important.

Moreover, although the two signed a blood contract and also made up for the dragon energy contract, the main content of the contract is that they must not harm each other and must help each other. As for profit, it is not very restrictive and depends on the score.

But Yu Lie stood at the door of the pharmacy, just glanced at it, turned his back, and quickly walked towards the exit of the workshop.

Since the other party dared to trust him, Yu Lie, why would he, Yu Lie, lose a Taoist friend he was willing to trust just for the sake of immediate small gains?

………………

Not long after, when Yu Lie boarded the Earthworm heading to the city where his cousin was, Miaom was already in the huge workshop, questioning one by one.

After questioning him in this workshop, she rushed to the next workshop and street, and continued to make insinuations.

In the end, Miaomu even ran to the Xianlu, calmed down, and searched for what he needed among the complicated information.

On Yu Lie's side, after he climbed down from the ground, he also walked non-stop, riding the wind, passing through overlapping buildings, and quickly rushed to the cage house where Yu Fenggao was.

Thanks to his extraordinary memory as a cultivator, Yu Fenggao also wrote down his specific address in his previous letters and invited Yu Lie to be a guest. Otherwise, he would have gotten lost five or six times at least.

Like ants, they sank into a certain building, and after twisting and turning, Yu Lie finally came to a door.

Bang bang!

There was a knock on the door immediately, and he stood waiting outside the door respectfully.

According to Yu Lie's understanding, in his cousin's family, only his sister-in-law Luo Sen and his spiritual pet Da Hong go out to work. Yu Fenggao himself stays in the cage for many years, absorbing spiritual energy and practicing hard, even if the other party goes out , basically it will return soon.

Therefore, although Yu Lie came here rashly today, he probably wouldn't break into the empty door.

As expected, as Yu Lie expected, not long after he knocked on the door, there was a faint light flickering on the stone door in front of him, and an eyeball-like rune squirmed out, aimed at him and blinked, and after blinking, it returned. I looked around a few times.

The next moment, the stone door opened immediately with a kacha sound, and a person appeared behind the door.

Yu Lie lowered his head and raised his hands to greet his cousin who opened the door.

But as his peripheral vision glanced at the person opening the door, Yu Lie was slightly startled and stopped.

He raised his head and looked even more surprised.

Because the person who opened the door for Yu Lie was not his cousin Yu Fenggao, but a female Taoist.

The other party was slender, with long legs and thin waist. He was standing casually leaning against the door. His body was still very concave and convex under the loose Taoist robe, which made him look very handsome.

Fortunately, this female channel is not someone else, but her sister-in-law Lawson. It's just that this fashion is in the daytime. Logically speaking, the other party should still be working in the workshop.

What made Yu Lie raise his eyebrows even more was that the next thing he saw was his sister-in-law Lawson's red cheeks, and the smell of alcohol that hit his nostrils. In addition, the cousin's cage house can be seen to the end at a glance. There is no one behind Rosen, not his cousin.

This made Yu Lie immediately realize whether he came here at the wrong time...
