Fairy cage

When the three days were up, a signal came from outside the Earth Fire Alchemy Room urging people to leave the seclusion, and the sound of the bell kept ringing.

After Yu Lie heard the bell, there was a look of regret in his eyes, and he began to pack up the tent and other items.

"It would be great if I could also have such an alchemy room."

But for the current Yu Lie, this is simply a delusion.

Even for the Shouwu who provided the alchemy room, the other party was not the owner of the alchemy room. It was just because the other party was a member of the Qianlin Chamber of Commerce, and the chamber of commerce provided the other party with an alchemy room for use.

Once Shouwu enshrines his resignation, if the other party wants to come here to refine elixirs, he will have to pay the favor and price like Yu Lie.

After leaving the customs, Yu Lie happened to see a familiar figure outside. The figure was slender and looking forward to looking at Yu Lie.

The visitor was none other than the female Taoist Miaomu.

It had been a few days since the two last met, but when they met here, there was no unfamiliarity between them.

Miaomu whispered expectantly: "Brother Yu, how is the effect of earth fire body refining?"

Yu Lie immediately replied: "Very good."

Such an answer made the look of anticipation in Miaomou's eyes even more intense. She quickly raised her hands towards Yu Lie and said, "Without further delay, Miaomu will go in first."

It turns out that Miaomu didn't find out about Yu Lie's customs today and came here specifically to look for him, but the Shouwu worshiper arranged the opponent just behind Yu Lie to use earth fire.

Seeing such a situation, Yu Lie did not exchange more greetings with the other party. He nodded and watched the other party step into the Earth Fire Alchemy Room.

After continuing to walk all the way out and greeting the shopkeeper and others in the large pharmacy, Yu Lie had nowhere to go and had no choice but to return to his sister-in-law Luo Sen's cage house to rest for a while.

Three days of non-stop refining was more tiring for Yu Lie than the seven days of non-stop work chopping wood and burning fire.

So after returning to the cage house, he saw that there was still no one in the house. Without thinking, Yu Lie jumped onto the only bed. Instead of sitting cross-legged and meditating, he pillowed on the mat and fell asleep on his side.

But he didn't know that in the small washroom cubicle of the cage house, after a while, the formation on the cubicle shook slightly, and someone suddenly walked out of it.

This man was only wearing a loose Taoist robe, his belt was not fastened, and his hair was not pulled up in a bun. There was still a smell of moisture on his body, and his cheeks were slightly red, like hibiscus emerging from the water.

Although Yu Lie was sleeping soundly, as soon as someone else's breath appeared in the cage, he was immediately startled and suddenly opened his eyes.

In an instant, he clearly saw the charming female path.

Sister-in-law Luo Sen was wiping her green hair with her hands. She also looked stunned and stared at Yu Lie. When she came to her senses, the blush on her sister-in-law Lawson's cheeks became even more intense, and she subconsciously grabbed her collar.

Just because her movements were a beat slower, Yu Lie's eyes had already subconsciously looked at her whole body.

There was a strange look in his eyes, and he wondered: "We haven't seen each other for many days. Why is this sister-in-law Lawson in the room again today? Didn't she continue to inquire about my itinerary?"

The two of them had never met in the cage house for some time before, and the shopkeeper on duty secretly told Yu Lie that a green-haired woman in the workshop was inquiring about his current situation, so Yu Lie guessed that his sister-in-law Luo Sen had deliberately delayed his return home time.

Indeed, as Yu Lie guessed, Luo Sen inquired about his itinerary, which was why he did not appear in front of Yu Lie for many days.

But today is different. Yu Lie walked out of the Earth Fire Alchemy Room. Only the Shouwu worshiper and the shopkeeper on duty knew about this matter. The other Taoists in the shop were not qualified to know, so Luo Sen did not figure out Yu Lie's itinerary.

In the narrow room, after taking a bath, the smell of green wheat was more obvious on Luo Sen's body, which was sweet and fresh.

There was a man and a woman alone, and the light in the cage was not very bright. A different atmosphere appeared between the two of them.

Just as Luo Sen was embarrassed, thinking about how to alleviate the current embarrassment, she suddenly discovered that Yu Lie, who was lying on the bed, suddenly closed his eyes again, as if the alert and bright gaze just now was just her. It's like an illusion.

And what entered Luo Sen's ears was the sound of Yu Lie's deep and soothing breathing.

At this point, Yu Lie didn't know how to alleviate the situation at hand, so he simply continued to pretend to be asleep, waiting for the other party to get dressed before waking up and talking.

After he closed his eyes, the room was silent for a few breaths, and then there was the sound of tiptoeing, and the sound of a wooden door opening and closing. It was his sister-in-law Rosenton who had retreated into the bathroom.

The wooden door was closed, but the formation was not opened again, so it was not soundproof, and the sound of rustling clothes inside could be heard.

When Luo Sen walked out again and the sheep suit inadvertently made some noise, Yu Lie knew that he didn't have to pretend to be asleep.

He opened his eyes again and saw a well-dressed female with a dignified face walking in the room. She was completely different from the one she was wearing just now.

However, the other party looked around, as if the house did not belong to her, and she was too obviously curious about the layout of the house.

At this time, Yu Lie stretched out, stood up, and said in surprise: "When did sister come home?"

He bowed apologetically and said, "I don't know that my sister is going back to the house today. Yu Lie is taking the liberty. Since my sister is going to use the house today, I will leave first."

After exchanging pleasantries, Yu Lie wanted to give the cage house to the other party.

But immediately a nice voice sounded:

"There's no need to be polite. Since I promised you, you can just use this house."

Sister-in-law Luo Sen stood in front of Yu Lie and spoke seriously.

But she had just taken a bath, and even though she consciously restrained the blood in her cheeks, it was still vague and hazy.

Coupled with the fragrance that came with her after taking a bath, she looked very pretty and lovely at this time, with the temperament of a sister, mature and tender, and she was speaking seriously, but she seemed to be blaming her.

The two of them landed in the room. After chatting for a while, Yu Lie suddenly said:

"By the way, I have something to ask my sister. May I ask about the process of signing up for the Taoist palace examination? What should I pay attention to?"

Hearing this, sister-in-law Lawson's face suddenly showed a look of confusion.

"That's right. If you count the time, you should be almost ready for this."

She was stunned for a moment, then suddenly took out a book from her hand: "Everything you want to know is in it."

Yu Lie took the book and found that it was a little old. When he opened it, he found that there were no printed words inside, but rows of beautiful and neat handwriting, which was the same as the training notes from last time.

The book lists the entire process of participating in the Dao Palace assessment. The main points are the same as what Yu Lie asked about, and there are many precautions written in it, including deletions, changes, and changes.

Yu Lie turned the page briefly, and then mentioned the precautions during the assessment process.

It could be said that this book or note was exactly what Yu Lie wanted. He glanced at it a few times, with surprise in his eyes.

Yu Lie immediately handed over his hand: "Thank you sister! This book will be of great use to Yu Lie. Please help me borrow it for a few more days, so I can copy it!"

Seeing this, sister-in-law Lawson suddenly had an expression of interest on her face. She waved her hand and whispered: "That's all. Since this book is suitable for your use, I will just put it in your hand. There is no need to return it." .”

When Yu Lie saw his sister-in-law Luo Sen looking like this, how could he not know that the notebook in his hand must have been prepared by the other party for his cousin Yu Fenggao, and perhaps he had started compiling it last year.

Now Yu Lie said that he wanted to apply for Dao Palace, which aroused the emotion in the other party's heart.

Luo Sen hesitated and suddenly asked: "Do you know the way to the Dao Palace?"

Yu Lie paused and replied confidently: "I know a thing or two."

"In that case, you can go on your own. If there is still something unclear at that time, just ask me. Anyway, even if the registration is delayed, it will not be delayed for a few days."

After her sister-in-law Luo Sen finished explaining these words, she bowed to Yu Lie, explained something, and then exited the cage elegantly.

In her words, she just came to the house today to pick up some things, but there were too many things piled up in the workshop, and she had to go there again.

Watching the other party leave, Yu Lie walked alone in the cage. He pinched the notes in his hand and shook his head helplessly.

It's not that Yu Lie doesn't understand the relationship between men and women. He may not know much, but he can't be too little.

Today's "coincidence" in the room, as well as the other party's hesitant actions just now, Luo Sen obviously started to compare Yu Lie and his cousin Yu Fenggao again, and his emotions were inexplicable.

But the most important thing for Yu Lie now is to be admitted to the Taoist Palace. What he wants to do most is to break through in cultivation, but he doesn't want to get involved in all kinds of things. Especially that Lawson was once his nominal sister-in-law.

"Don't make mistakes, don't make mistakes."

Yu Lie sat in the cage, warning himself secretly.

But it was inevitable that he had just seen the beauty taking a bath, and his mind was confused, so he stopped taking a rest and read the notes given by his sister-in-law Lawson, and then fell asleep when he was tired.

Just outside the door of the cage house, Lawson exited the cage house, but did not leave immediately.

She stood outside the door, looking into the room from time to time, as if her eyes could penetrate the lead iron door panel.

Rosen's eyes showed a complicated look:

"Yu Fenggao, your cousin is really a talented person, and he has much more potential than you.

In just a short period of time, the impetuous Qi in his body has been polished a lot, and he must be able to polish it thoroughly and stabilize his cultivation before the assessment. "

Luo Sen also knew what methods Yu Lie used to assist in his cultivation, because it was her suggestion to offer Shouwu to obtain earth fire.

Using earth and fire to refine the body may seem simple, but in fact it is not a simple and easy task.

Every wisp of earth fire energy taken into the body will bring great burden and torture to the Taoist. The longer the time, the better the effect of body refining, but the more it wears down the Taoist's will. If you are not careful, you may even hurt your lungs.

Therefore, not every Taoist dares or is willing to use earth fire to refine the body.

For example, Yu Fenggao was also suggested by Luo Sen, and if Yu Fenggao wanted to use earth fire, he would not have to pay any extra price.

However, this suggestion was rejected by Yu Fenggao because of the high risk of physical damage.

Among them, Yu Fenggao didn't know whether he was trying to cover up or something, but he even persuaded Luo Sen in turn.

The other party said: "Don't be eager for quick success and instant gain during your cultivation! Don't mention such things that are harmful to the body in the future. I suggest you don't do the same."

In the past, Luo Sen quite agreed with this statement and felt that Yu Fenggao was very talented and there was really no need to take risks.

But now when compared with the rest of the people in the room, Rosen suddenly felt that he was really blind.

"This man has a strong aura of earth fire, but his face remains unchanged and he walks freely. He is just a little tired. He is indeed an extraordinary Taoist."

She stood in front of the cage, her thoughts surging, and she sighed quietly again:

"How wonderful it would be if the person with the surname Yu that I met was this person instead of that person!"

She is only three years older than Yu Lie.

The rest of the people in the room didn't know what was going on outside the door, and they didn't bother to know.

He was lowering his head, pondering the news in his notes with great interest, and his sleepiness had disappeared.

……………

time flies.

Since the end of the earth fire seclusion, Yu Lie has not left the door or stepped forward, and just stayed in the cage to practice.

Even for the registration assessment, which ordinary Taoists attach great importance to, he only used the transmission talismans to complete the entire process.

Anyway, as long as the Taoist's Taoist can successfully imprint the assessment charm before the assessment begins, things will be completely safe.

As for those who insist on registering on-site, most of them want to relax, learn more, choose a date, and even get familiar with the people in the Taoist palace.

Yu Lie had a letter of recommendation in his hand and had something to do, so he didn't want to go out and waste time.

However, just in case, after receiving the reply from the Taoist palace, he released the Eighth Brother to act as his eyes and ears and wandered around the gate of the Taoist palace.

On this day, Yu Lie was inhaling the spiritual energy in the cage every day. Suddenly, his heart moved and he stopped practicing.

After completing the exercise, Yu Lie opened his eyes, and his own Taoist magic weapon appeared immediately.

Only a trace of dragon energy was seen, which had already penetrated into the remaining Taoist vessels, squirming like an insect. Under his gaze, this thread of dragon energy slowly twisted into a rune and was imprinted on the Taoist drum.

There are also small words appearing around the runes, writing important information such as time and location.

After Yu Lie examined them one by one, he exhaled with a pleased expression:

"August 8th is a good day!"

He had successfully applied for the August assessment and was assigned to the eighth day. At that time, Yu Lie only had to rush to the gate of the Taoist Palace before three quarters of noon that day.

After thinking about it, Yu Lie wrote a message and punched it out the window, asking if Miaomu in the hotel had signed up.

Just an hour later, a transmission talisman flew over, and it was Miaom's reply.

The other party also successfully registered, but the specific date fell in late August, which was not the same day as Yu Lie. Miaom was also a little annoyed in the letter, and asked Yu Lie if the date of the assessment could be changed.

After registering, Yu Lie continued to practice hard in the cage.

During this period, my sister-in-law Lawson also came home from time to time, so the contact between the two of them inevitably increased. Fortunately, the other party knew the rules and was quite serious when dealing with her. She just urged Yu Lie to practice as a sister.

By the end of July, Yu Lie had successfully polished his true energy, and his ten-year path was completely stable, and he was ready to undergo the "change of water and fire"!
