Volume 1 Catechumens Chapter 9 The Jumping Clown (II)

Early the next morning, a group of people rushed to the county seat to file a complaint.

This case is clear and clear, and the county magistrate will not be unable to practice with Lin Xiucai Du Tuan for the sake of a mere pharmacy owner, so he immediately issued a fire sign after reading the paper, and asked the officials to arrest the shopkeeper Wang and pass the court.

Shopkeeper Wang has been a little uneasy since Wu Xie left the city yesterday, and he was even more restless when Jon and the others did not come back that night. When the officials came to arrest people, he already understood a little, and came to the hall tremblingly, and saw Wu Xie and Jon waiting for him here, and immediately became so frightened that he collapsed on the ground and honestly confessed his crime.

The evidence was conclusive, the confession was rejected, and the shopkeeper Wang naturally went to death row, waiting for the case file to be reported to the Criminal Department for approval and then beheaded. However, this case still has a little end to end - the surname Wang is a lonely ghost, not to mention his wife and children, not even a relative, he is finished himself, but the pharmacy has to be properly handled.

According to the laws of the Eastern Chu Kingdom, murder has been committed, and whether it is succeeded or not is a capital crime; Coercing good people to become bandits is regarded as complicity, and it is a grave crime that is unforgivable for both father and son to be beheaded and the whole family to be exiled. It's just that the two crimes are slightly entangled in the handling of property - murder, where property must be given to the victim as compensation; If you plot rebellion, you should confiscate your property.

Shopkeeper Wang has always been stingy, he has saved a lot of money for many years in the pharmacy, and more importantly, the pharmacy itself is worth a lot of money, should it be fined or compensated? made the county magistrate a little embarrassed.

He thought about it carefully, but he still couldn't make a decision, so he set his eyes on the staff master beside him.

This master is a fellow villager of the county master, although he has little ability to read, he is very clever, and when he saw that the master was hesitant, he quietly pointed to Wu Jie.

The county master was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what the master meant.

This Wu Xie said that he went out to seek immortals without success, and only found a ginseng, although it sounds reasonable, but there are many unsuccessful people in the world who seek immortals, who can dig up a ginseng worth 800 taels of silver and come back?

I'm afraid that when he goes out this time, it is not "unsuccessful in seeking immortals", but "unfinished in the dust"......

For the money left by the shopkeeper Wang, the county master can offend Lin Xiucai and offend Du Tuanlian, but if it is Wu Xie who can become an immortal in the future, it seems that it is not so worthwhile......

Thinking of this, the county magistrate immediately made a decision, and made a judgment with a shocking smile.

The king's treasurer is not forgiven, and he is in prison and will not be mentioned; It is not a problem to confiscate the floating wealth in the family; The pharmacy itself was awarded to Wu Jie.

"In any case, there is a need for pharmacies in the county. The Wu family has practiced medicine for generations, and they will definitely be able to run it well. The county magistrate said kindly, "The county magistrate said that you are a person who asks for immortals, but your father and brother do not ask for immortals, and it is very suitable to stay in the county to be a famous doctor." ”

As soon as this verdict came out, everyone in the hall was stunned, and even Wu Xie himself was taken aback - according to Lin Xiucai's prior estimate, the most he could do was to return the ginseng, but unexpectedly, the entire pharmacy was awarded to him!

Of course, no one will have trouble with money, and Wu Xie is no exception.

So when he came out of the county office, he had already changed from Wu Xiaoer in a small pharmacy in the countryside to Boss Wu in a big pharmacy in the city.

Because the county order took special care of it, the matter of receiving the pharmacy went well, and the Wu family didn't spend much effort to take over the related business. Of course, the boss is Dr. Wu instead of Wu Jie, one is that Wu Xie has no intention of running a pharmacy at all, and the other is that Dr. Wu is not worried about his youngest son's medical skills.

"You, you have the ability to cure headaches and brain fever, when You Fanglang arrives, you want to open your own pharmacy, and it will be almost the same if you study for another ten years!"

Wu Xie laughed with a smile, although he felt that he seemed to have good medical skills, but compared with his own father, the gap was indeed very large, and he couldn't disagree.

So Dr. Wu sat in the county pharmacy "Ping'an Hall" from then on, and Wu Jiaji's "Wu Family Pharmacy" was handed over to Wu Jie's brother Wu Cheng.

They also bought a big house in the county seat, and the three families lived here temporarily, one is convenient for doing things, and the other is that everyone may move in the future and become "city people".

Everyone seemed happy, only one was sullen.

Du Ruo.

She originally confidently assured Wu Xie that it would be beneficial to wait for him to come back, but she didn't expect that her side was not ready, and Wu Xie actually came back - and he returned home!

"Alas! Shame on you! The tigress with the first combat effectiveness of the Wu family sat in front of the windowsill and let out a long sigh.

After a sigh, she walked to the door of the room and looked around, and to make sure that no one was paying attention to it, she closed the doors and windows, pulled out a rattan box from under the bed, carefully opened the box, and removed some of the miscellaneous items placed on the upper floor as a cover, revealing a purple wooden box.

The workmanship of this wooden box is simple, but the materials are very sufficient, and it seems that the road is very strong. When the box was opened, there was nothing else in it, only a bright red jade.

She walked to the door again, listened with bated breath, and heard no footsteps or voices.

Du Ruo, who had relieved his heart a little, hurriedly ran back, picked up the jade, and put it on his forehead.

"Master, Master Sanshan! Didn't you always say that it only took me 100 days to build a foundation and cultivate supernatural powers? Why has it been almost five months, and I don't have any shadow of my supernatural powers except for a section of skill improvement? ”

"The Hundred Days Foundation Building is based on the standard of ordinary disciples who can pass the assessment of the Immortal Gate, where did the old man think that your qualifications are so poor, and your cultivation is still at the 'forging body' stage! The mental method I teach you is from the outside in, and the success of forging the body will naturally stimulate the potential of the body, refining the internal force into true qi, and stepping into the innate from the day after tomorrow, when the supernatural powers will be self-sufficient. An old and shrill voice came out of the jade, like a needle, and drilled directly into her mind, it was the voice of the Sanshan Daoist, "You foodie!" I have poor qualifications, so I don't go to work harder to make up for my clumsiness, but instead complain that the master doesn't teach you well? When I meet an apprentice like you, I really fall into blood mold! ”

Du Ruo immediately blushed and hurriedly apologized.

After a long time, the anger of the Sanshan Dao people in the jade subsided a little, and he said helplessly: "If my cultivation is still there, refining two spirit pills will be easy for you to wash your hair and cut the marrow and be reborn, but I was unlucky enough to provoke the people of the Dragon Sect, my body was captured, and my soul was sealed...... Alas! Why am I so unlucky in Sanshan Dao, I just met a foodie like you! Look at you, what else will you be besides eating! I've never seen a guy with such poor qualifications as you in my life! ”

"Isn't it all fate...... Master, don't always scold me, help me find a way, okay? Now the fourth child is busy, and he can't remember the original words for a while, but when he is done, he remembers...... When the time comes, where will I put my face as a sister! ”

"You foodie also know that you are embarrassed?! So what is Rory doing all the rage? Give me practice! The Sanshan Dao man inside the jade shouted angrily, and his voice echoed in Du Ruo's mind like a bell, "Look what you've been doing these days!" If you have cultivated a little skill, you will cause trouble everywhere, smash stones today and pull out big trees tomorrow, are you cultivating or performing arts! If my mana were still there, I'd have to hang you up and whip you a hundred lashes!" ”

Du Ruo was scolded so disgraced, he hid the jade again, sighed, and ran to the martial arts training ground to practice.

Her practice was quite strange, she neither exercised nor meditated to practice qi, but instead drowned her head in the water again and again, drowning herself almost suffocated and fainted, and only then did she run some kind of strange mental method in the short time before she fainted.

It's crazy, but it's very effective. When the body senses danger, it will naturally stimulate the potential of life, and then this potential will be transformed into its own power, which will be included in the meridians and nourish the body.

Every time she practiced, it was worth ten days of training, and in just five months, her skills had been improved to the point of being a first-class player in the rivers and lakes.

But...... It's not enough to be a master!

Her original plan was to become an immortal within half a year, and then proudly accept Wu Xie as an apprentice!

It's a pity that Ji Lu couldn't catch up with the changes, Wu Xie came back faster than she expected, and the difference in her own qualifications made even the Sanshan Dao people who taught her immortal arts dumbfounded.

If this continues, won't the original rhetoric become bragging!

Du Ruo sighed in his heart while practicing hard.

"Folklore says that if you are lucky enough to meet an immortal to spread the Fa, you will soon be able to cultivate into an immortal, but how can I be different from the legend? If this continues, when will you become an immortal! ”

In fact, she also knows that she has handed over the good fortune that she can only cultivate in a few lifetimes without knowing the Dao - because she secretly ate offerings and found that the Sanshan Daoist actually has a unique skill, and then when she was climbing the mountain, she stumbled upon the secret cultivation place of the Sanshan Daoist, and after the Immortal War leveled the Sanshan Temple, she found the jade that contained the remnant soul of the Sanshan Daoist in that cultivation place, and thus became his disciple and got him to teach the immortal method...... This kind of luck is like the good luck in the legends, and if there is any discontent, it is indeed necessary to be hung up and whipped!

But...... She is really anxious, if she doesn't become an immortal as soon as possible, she will lose face!

Waking up from a semi-fainting state, even the tigress who has never been heartless and free is a little frightened, looking at the ordinary basin of water, I really can't raise the courage to soak my head in it again, so I have to find a sunny sheltered corner to sit down, while feeling the strength in my body and a little bit stronger, while holding my cheeks and frowning sadly.

"It's going to be over......

After thinking about it for a while, Du Ruo finally thought of a solution that was not a solution.

Drag!

Let Wu Xie see his rapid improvement in his divine skills first, and then he will definitely wait for his divine skills to be completed obediently and patiently, just like a donkey who sees a carrot.

"Hmmm! That's it! ”
