fairy family

Chapter 70: Sister-in-law in the Painting, Granted Official Status

After Yu Que returned to the Alchemist's Guild, he did not move out with his uncle and others, but instead renewed the money for the quiet room for a few more days.

Although this place is expensive and not convenient for a large family to live in, it is safe.

Yu Que planned to wait until the county school results were announced before moving. By then, his uncle could ask someone to go back to the Fu clan to get his things, which would be much easier.

Although his uncles and others had been living in fear in the guild recently, they all supported his plan. They were afraid that their random suggestions would disturb Yu Que, so they asked Yu Que to tell them everything and they would obey his plan.

Soon, three days passed in a flash.

During this time, Yu Que took time out to go out and meet eight of his candidate friends in the county town, and informed Huang Guishan in advance that he had already registered his identity and was ready to be ranked as a ninth-grade alchemist.

This day, early in the morning.

Yu Que took a bath in the morning and used willow branches, fine salt and other things to brush and rinse his mouth. He felt refreshed and there was no bad smell on his body.

His aunt, who had gotten up earlier, surrounded him and pressed a hot towel against his robe, fearing that there would be even a few extra wrinkles on his clothes.

It took him half an hour to dress neatly, put on his shoes and socks properly, and apply a time-honored hair oil, making sure every part of his body was in place. Then, with his family members watching him, he stepped out of the quiet room and walked towards a place in the courtyard.

Today is exactly what Huang Guishan said, a good day to help him decide on for refining his official body!
If everything goes well, after he succeeds, he will be a real ninth-grade cultivator and no longer an ordinary citizen or a fairy boy.

Yu Que walked straight all the way to the Qingfu Temple where he had visited before. He stopped outside the door, clasped his hands together, and stood quietly outside the door.

In the early morning, there were many people coming and going in the temple, and all of them were serious alchemists with a mysterious aura.

When they saw Yu Que waiting at the door, they couldn't help but look at him with puzzled eyes.

Fortunately, Yu Que waited for less than two quarters of an hour, and Huang Guishan appeared in front of the temple on time, yawning.

When he saw Yu Que, he raised his eyebrows, then grabbed Yu Que and walked quickly inside:

"Come with me first."

This fellow dragged Yu Que into the temple, threw Yu Que away, quickly lit three incense sticks, and inserted them into the incense burner in front of the green talisman.

Huang Guishan watched the green smoke rising straight and steady. He heaved a sigh of relief and couldn't help clapping his hands:
"Okay, I'm on time again today!"

Yu Que couldn't help but take a few more glances, only then did he realize that Huang Guishan's burning incense here was similar to the apprentices signing in for work in the front yard of the guild.

After Huang Guishan finished burning incense, he coughed lightly and restrained the frivolous expression on his face.

He waved his hand at Yu Que and said, "Since you are in the temple, you are not a stranger. Come and burn some incense and worship. After you're done, I'll take you to see the head of the synagogue."

Yu Que stepped forward as he was told, straightened his face, and bowed respectfully.

Afterwards, Huang Guishan returned to his normal state. He staggered and led Yu Que around the temple, looking here and there.

It seems that this person's popularity in the Alchemist Guild is not as bad as Qian Huazhen said. On the contrary, he is extremely popular.

There were many new faces that Yu Que had never seen in the guild. When they saw Huang Guishan, they all smiled and nodded, and also made some gestures to Yu Que.

Not long after.

The two of them came to a quiet room with an ancient atmosphere. The stone door was not closed, only a curtain was hanging.

Before they could say anything, an old voice came from behind the curtain: "Come in."

Huang Guishan lowered his head, walked quickly with small steps, and motioned Yu Que to follow him.

A square coffee table and a bamboo bed appeared in their eyes. On the bamboo bed was sitting cross-legged an old Taoist with white hair and beard. He looked quite Taoist and had an immortal look. He was holding the Zen Zen Zen with both hands and closing his eyes to rest.

The two bowed respectfully:
"Huang Guishan meets the leader."

"I have met the leader of the meeting."

When the old Taoist with white beard heard this, he suddenly shook his body, stared at Huang Guishan with strange eyes, and muttered:
"You yellow-skinned fellow, you were never so serious when you came to see me before. Do you have any intentions or ill intentions towards me today?"

Huang Guishan coughed lightly and reminded, "Headmaster, I have a young man. We have agreed to have him reviewed and officially entered into the guild's golden book today."

The white-bearded leader slapped his forehead and said, "Did you ever tell me about this?"

The man sighed and shook his head: "I'm old, I'm old, I can't remember things. Unlike you, you are all young and full of energy."

When Yu Que thought that the other party was really lamenting the passing of time, Huang Guishan's face turned dark, and he suddenly pulled out a medicinal herb wrapped in oil paper from his sleeve that looked like ginseng and radish.

This thing is about the thickness of a child's arm, but it has a strange fishy smell.

"Here you go." Huang Guishan bowed unhappily.

The White-Bearded Leader jumped up from the bamboo bed swiftly, standing upright like a pillar supporting the sky.

After jumping off the ground, the other party noticed that Yu Que was still in the quiet room. He flicked his complicated and mysterious Bagua robe, took a square step, walked to Huang Guishan, and took the "radish".

He weighed the herbs, smiled brightly, put them into his sleeve, and gestured to Huang Guishan: "We have this good stuff, how about taking a bite of it tonight?"

Huang Guishan shook his head: "Why should I mess with it? I am asking for trouble."

The Whitebeard leader said:
"You are a lazy, cunning, greedy guy who doesn't know how to change. Not having a family is not a bad thing! After you have married two people, you can just walk to Heping Lane. I envy you so much."

"Forget it, forget it. If I go, you must go. I don't want to be in my dreams again and stay up all night."

Huang Guishan shook his head like a rattle.

Yu Que was standing aside, listening to the conversation between the two. He was stunned for a moment, and had already guessed what the medicinal materials Huang Guishan had just bribed him with!

The head of the White Beard Society saw that Yu Que was staring at him. He gathered his sleeves and nodded at Yu Que, asking:

"Young man, how about you accompany me for a few bites?"

Yu Que was somewhat at a loss. He had never thought that the head of such a large alchemist guild would be so out of tune. He hesitated for a few times and was about to agree, but Huang Guishan next to him stopped him.

"Please don't tease him. If he is visited by my aunt in his dream, even if I punish him slightly, he will be depressed for at least half a month. By then, there will be a lot of delays."

Upon hearing this, Yu Que hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Senior Leader."

"Okay." The Whitebearded leader stood with his hands behind his back, his back to the two of them, and muttered to an eight-foot-long painting hanging on the wall in the quiet room:
"Old woman, you scared me so much that I couldn't even find anyone to have sex with."

Yu Que raised his eyes and was stunned again.

Because the painting depicts a slim and slender girl with a seductive temperament and heavy makeup.

His eyebrows and eyes are as delicate as silk, as if they can draw the souls of people outside the painting into them.

The most important thing is that when the girl in the painting saw Yu Que looking at her, she blinked.

When Yu Que thought he was seeing things, the other person yawned in the painting and gave everyone a displeased look. He was so vivid and lifelike that he looked like a real person.

Huang Guishan, who was standing beside him, looked anxious and bowed to the girl in the painting:

“Sister-in-law, Xiao Huang is not good at talking, but he is not mumbling about you.

Just now, he was accused of being disrespectful and shameless!"

That's it!

The girl in this painting is the white-bearded woman who leads the group!
Yu Que remembered that he had seen a similar situation in a ghost collection.

Then, in his mind, a scene suddenly emerged of the girl walking out of the painting, turning virtual into real, swaying her body, and making love with the leader with white beard and hair, sucking his bones and marrow.

Yu Que took a deep breath and said in his heart, "What a way to have fun."

He really didn't expect that this old man, as the head of the alchemists in the workshop, was highly respected, talented and well-behaved, but his wife was not only not an immortal, but not even a living person...

But then again, the other party is a cultivator, and his craft is all about playing with ghosts and monsters. So, taking the ghost in the painting as his wife is quite in line with his status, right?

Yu Que was stunned, while Huang Guishan, who was standing next to him, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the girl in the painting was not angry.

After bowing to the other party again and again, Huang Guishan spoke:

"Head, please behave yourself and quickly take out the red brush and golden book. I still have to take this kid around to introduce him to different clans, burn incense and hold a ceremony at Qing Fu's place, and then report to the court."

The leader of the White Beard Society blew his beard and suddenly flicked his sleeves, making a snapping sound.

A box in the room was opened, and out of it flew a golden book, along with a jade pen with a bright red tip.

"Write it yourself."

The Whitebeard leader gave instructions and then ignored them.

The other party pulled out the radish-shaped medicinal herb from his sleeve, happily took out a jar of wine, soaked the medicinal herb in the wine, and leaned over to take a deep sniff.

"Nanshan Tiger, what a good thing."

Huang Guishan actually took the jade pen, flipped through the golden book himself, and solemnly made hand gestures, chanted a spell, and leaned over to write on it.

After finishing writing, the other party called Yu Que to his side:
"Take a drop of blood from your finger and retain your spiritual thoughts, and write them on this word."

Yu Que looked down and found that there were many names on the golden book. The name Huang Guishan was referring to was "Yu Que". In addition, there were various small characters on the book, including the year, month, day, and age.

Yu Que did not dare to delay and immediately did as the other party asked.

After leaving his name in the golden book, Huang Guishan felt as if he was at home again. He walked to one side of the quiet room, rummaged through the boxes and found a jade token.

This plaque is grey in colour and similar in shape to the green talismans in temples. There are also clear and simple seal engravings on both sides, but it is less than half the size of a palm.

Huang Guishan picked up his brush again and wrote and drew on the bottom of the jade plaque.

Gray gas surged with a sizzling sound, and on the bottom of the jade token there were four concave characters, which read "Refiner Yu Que".

After doing all this, Huang Guishan held the jade token close to the golden book, aimed it at the drop of blood on it, and with a snap, a four-character imprint was left, and the bottom of the jade token also turned bright red.

After completing this step, Huang Guishan threw the jade token to Yu Que and clapped his hands, saying, "It's done!"

Yu Que stretched out his confused hands and took the gray jade token.

He was stunned for a moment, still a little confused: "Is this the end?"

"Yes, it's over." Huang Guishan gathered his sleeves and glanced at the white-bearded leader who was drinking wine next to him.

He pulled his beard and said with a smile:

"Don't you see what kind of relationship I have with the head of the guild? With Huang leading you, why do we need to ring the bell, shake the divination blocks, burn incense and submit the petition? And after it has been reviewed by many alchemists and spread throughout the guild, we can add you to the Golden Book?"

He shook his head and said, "It's too much trouble. It will take the whole morning. I'll take you to get familiar with the place later and let everyone know the situation."

In an instant, the doubt that had existed in Yu Que's heart was immediately resolved.

No wonder Huang Guishan was so confident that he would let him pass the test and then be certified as an alchemist, and he didn't worry at all about whether the guild would go too slowly, shirk its responsibilities, or even miss the deadline during the certification process.

It turns out that this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes has someone above him!
In addition, the meeting will be held in a quiet room.

Yu Que's throat moved, and he really wanted to say something to Huang Guishan.

The other party mentioned ringing the bell to signal, shaking the divination blocks, burning incense and submitting the petition, reviewing by all the masters, and spreading it throughout the guild... In fact, he didn't think it was troublesome at all.

Not to mention spending a morning or an afternoon, even if it took three days and three nights, he would do it without hesitation, as long as he could pass it!
