Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

Chapter 36: Good Luck, Strength Over Jin

"Your matter is troublesome, but as long as you finish what it asks you to do, it will be fine... So, you finish what it asks you to do today, and then around 12:00 in the evening, you come back here and I will invite it out. Then you can lead it and the matter will be settled."

Chen Yushu hesitated for a moment, but in the end he couldn't bear to part with the precious fish worth thirty taels of silver, so he agreed.

"Lead...lead the way?"

Shi Hao’s face turned pale.

……

Because of the death, Chen Yushu was no longer in the mood to continue practicing.

After saying goodbye to Shi Hao, he carried the precious fish and walked towards the backyard of the pharmacy.

Precious fish is a rare thing and a great tonic. It is not only true for people who practice martial arts, but also for people who practice Yin-Yang.

But for Chen Yushu today, this thing is too luxurious and even a waste.

So, he went straight to find Manager Zhou with the precious fish.

“Baoyu, red-tailed whitehead?
Did you fish this out? Where did you fish it out?

When Chen Yushu brought the precious fish to Manager Zhou, he was shocked, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"right.

Right by the river outside the backyard.

It was swimming by the side, and I hit it on the head with a stone, and it turned upside down and I fished it out.”

Chen Yushu explained.

Of course, I didn't say more, that would only cause trouble.

"You're so lucky..."

Manager Zhou couldn't help but marvel at it. After a long while, he asked as if to confirm, "Do you want to sell this fish?"

"right.

I just don’t know if the shop will accept it. If not, I can only take it to the fish market…”

Chen Yushu nodded, but before he could finish his words, Manager Zhou said, "Of course I will.

This is good stuff. You are still practicing standing still and can’t use it, but for those who are doing external and internal training, it is a great tonic.

Eating this fish can save you two or three months of hard training.

Even martial artists who have cultivated internal strength are willing to pay a large price to buy it.

There are quite a few people who practice martial arts in our medicine shop. If you take it to the fish market, those fishing tyrants will definitely try to lower the price for you. At most they will give you thirty taels of silver.

Since you came to me first, I won’t let you suffer any loss.

"I'll take this precious fish for fifty taels of silver, how about that?"

"Fifty taels of silver?"

Chen Yushu was stunned. He originally thought that thirty taels was enough, but he didn't expect the actual value to be so high?

At this moment, any hesitation would be disrespectful to the fifty taels of silver, so he nodded in agreement.

"it is good.

If you are not in a hurry for the money, I will give it to you later, how about that? "

A smile immediately appeared on Manager Zhou's face.

“No rush.

In addition, I want to buy some Yangyuan Soup from the pharmacy."

Chen Yushu already had a plan.

Now that he was practicing both Taoism and martial arts, there was no shortcut to the White Tiger Visualization Method for the time being, but in terms of martial arts, he was obsessed with the effect of the Yang Yuan Soup.

Although three taels of silver per serving is a bit expensive.

But if he wants to improve his strength as quickly as possible, he has to spend the money, and he doesn't want to save it.

"I know you will have a great future."

Manager Zhou was amazed. Most people who suddenly became rich only knew how to enjoy their spending, but few would be willing to spend money on medicine and martial arts. "How many do you want?
Since you are an apprentice in the pharmacy, of course the price can be cheaper for you.

I'll charge you two taels and five cents for each copy, how about that?"

"Ten servings first."

Chen Yushu hesitated for a moment, then thought for a moment and said, "Also, I want to move out of the pharmacy. I wonder if Manager Zhou knows where there is a suitable place?"

The large dormitory environment was too inconvenient for him.

He had no choice before, but now that he had some money, he certainly didn't want to continue living in the big bunk bed.

“It is indeed inconvenient for a bunch of people to live together.

There are many apprentices living outside the shops, usually in the East Street area, where the rent is relatively cheap. Three or four families can rent a single room with a yard, and it only costs three or four hundred coins a month. If you have any requirements, I happen to know a pawnbroker who can help you."

Manager Zhou was not surprised either.

After all, all apprentices in the pharmacy who are able will move out. It is normal for Chen Yushu to want to move out since he has just received a large sum of money.

"It's fine to share the rent, but it's fine if it's a little quieter and a little out of the way. It would be best if there's a yard where I can practice martial arts."

Chen Yushu thought about it and spoke.

“This requirement is not too high, and it should be easy to find.

But the monthly rent would probably be a bit more expensive, more than one tael of silver."

Manager Zhou nodded and then spoke.

"It doesn't matter.

I'll trouble Manager Zhou to take care of it."

Chen Yushu quickly bowed and thanked him.

……

There are almost no secrets in the pharmacy.

The news that Chen Yushu carried the precious fish into the backyard early in the morning quickly spread among the apprentices.

Many apprentices came to him one after another and asked him in detail about the process of catching the precious fish.

Even Master Qian Qian, who had not been seen for a while, came back specially to ask him what happened, and expressed his annoyance as to why he didn't sell the precious fish to him.

Of course, this is just a complaint.

After all, he didn't often appear in the pharmacy. More often, he would follow the doctor or the backyard manager to various places to escort or purchase medicinal materials.

Sometimes I stay there for several days.

Plus, since he didn't live in the shop, Chen Yushu couldn't find him.

"You are so lucky, kid."

Xu San looked at Chen Yushu and sighed for the third time.

"I'm surprised too."

Chen Yushu also answered him for the third time.

I don't feel relieved at all.

By taking this precious fish, it was equivalent to him accepting Shi Hao's business, so he needed to go out at night to help the other party solve this problem.

If everything goes well, everything will be fine, but if not, it will be troublesome.

So, throughout the whole day, while he was busy in the pharmacy, he was also thinking about countermeasures and making active preparations. He did not feel at ease until he felt that everything was in place.

Since he dared to take this job, he must be somewhat confident.

If possible, run away.

The place where he lives now is the Liu family pharmacy.

Of course, there are experts in the pharmacy, and there is more than one.

And martial arts masters can also kill people.

After all, the dead body is not like a ghost, which is invisible. In essence, the dead body is just a corpse. If it is in the water and uses tricks, it may be very threatening, but once it appears, even if it is extremely fast and powerful, it can never be the opponent of a martial artist.

……

In the evening, when it was almost time to finish work, Chen Yushu went to Manager Zhou to get the first portion of Yangyuan Soup.

Now he has his own experience in decocting medicine, so he does it himself without bothering others.

After half an hour, he quickly drank the bowl of medicine soup, then found an open space and began to practice the Medicine King Posture.

Once, twice, three times...

Yaowang Zhuang Gong +1
Yaowang Zhuang Gong +2
Yaowang Zhuang Gong +1
……

After the ninth time, Chen Yushu felt that the drug had run out of effect, so he stopped.

Yaowang Zhuang Gong: Getting Started (67/100)

“The experience value of the pile training has increased again.

The next realm is not far away.

And the effect of a portion of Yang Yuan Tang is not limited to this. It not only greatly improved my physical fitness, but also broke through the 100-pound mark in the strength of my arms for the first time."

After Chen Yushu lifted a 100-jin stone, he gently put it down, his eyes full of joy.
