Chapter 245 What the hell are you? Are you worthy enough to compete with me in backstage?
On the street, shouts and curses kept reaching my ears. On both sides of the street, shops of different sizes stood neatly. Among these shops, without exception, there was a flow of people coming and going. It was even more prosperous than the imperial capital.
Xiao Yuan and his two men walked slowly on the street, their eyes constantly scanning the shops on both sides of the street. Along the way, they saw many drug stores, but the scale of these drug stores was not large. There wouldn't be any good treasures, so the two of them didn't stop on the way.
After turning two streets, Xiao and Yuan finally stopped in front of an extremely large attic drug store.
The medicine shop is called "Qian Yaofang" and is very large. It should be the largest shop that Xiao Yuan has seen since they entered the city. Moreover, the shop here seems to have a good reputation in Black Imperial City. Therefore, at the gate, the flow of people coming and going almost seemed to be crowded together, and the sounds of shouting and cursing kept coming.
According to Yao Lao's induction, Xiao Yan was right here.
Standing outside Qianyaofang, Xiao Yuan pondered for a moment, and then he led the little medical fairy directly into the crowd. The powerful fighting energy in his body released a force of skill, quietly pushing away the people who blocked the road with gentle force. And Kai walked easily into the Thousand Medicine Shop.
As soon as he entered Qianyaofang, the noisy shouting and cursing suddenly weakened a lot, and a strong medicinal fragrance mixed with countless kinds of medicinal materials hit his face. The rich aroma of medicine made Xiao Yuan frown. He couldn't help but stretch out, and the face under the curtain showed an intoxicated look.
Wrinkling his nose, Xiao Yuan looked around and saw that this extremely spacious hall was filled with many transparent counters. Within the counters, various medicinal materials were neatly placed. At this moment , there are many people surrounding these counters.
The hall is divided into a medicinal material area and an elixir area. In comparison, the elixir area is undoubtedly the one with the largest number of people. After all, for people like Black Horn Territory who lick blood from the edge of a knife all day long, a life-saving pill may be enough to save their lives in times of danger. The explosive elixirs are undoubtedly much more precious than those medicinal materials that cannot be swallowed directly.
However, for an alchemist like Xiao Yuan, medicinal materials are more important. After all, as long as the medicinal materials are in hand, the elixir can naturally be refined.
Pulling the little medical fairy who also had a satisfied look on his face, Xiao Yuan walked slowly towards a crystal counter and immediately glanced at it slightly.
"Qinglan Grass Phoenix Fire Phosphorus Fruit"
Looking at the medicinal materials placed on the counter, Xiao Yuan recognized them at a glance, and then shook his head slightly. Although the things here were not ordinary, they were far from the medicinal materials he needed. level.
"This Black Corner Territory can attract many outsiders to come in. It's not without reason. If these medicinal materials are placed outside, they will definitely be regarded as treasures by many drug stores. How can they be placed here casually? for sale”
As a poison master, the little medical fairy is naturally quite familiar with these medicinal materials, and sighed softly at the moment.
Xiao Yuan smiled and nodded, and just about to speak, a laugh came from the side: "Two guests, don't know what medicinal materials you need? Our Qianyaofang is the top pharmacy in Black Imperial City, I believe you should be able to buy it here. Get what you need.”
Raising his head, Xiao Yuan looked at the old man who appeared at the counter. Judging from his robe, he should be someone from the drug store. Without any nonsense at the moment, he took out a piece of white rice paper from the Najie. On the rice paper, there are written several main medicinal ingredients for refining the Bone-melting Blood Pill.
The old man took the white rice paper with both hands, glanced at it casually at first, then froze, looked at Xiao Yuan again, looked at Xiao Yuan again, and said in a flash, "Is the girl an alchemist?"
"What? Can't the alchemist come to the drug store to buy medicinal materials?" Xiao Yuan said lightly.
"Haha, don't be surprised, girl. I am also a second-grade alchemist. Looking at the arrangement of these medicinal materials, I feel a little familiar." The old man said with a smile.
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan nodded slightly. The medicinal materials have different properties and properties. It is difficult for laymen to distinguish them. However, with Xiao Yuan's current level of medicine refining, when writing these medicinal materials, he naturally acted like a conditioned reflex. Putting the medicinal materials with the same medicinal properties together, the old man unexpectedly discovered carefully. It seems that although his talent is average, he did put in some hard work.
"Well, I have good eyesight. Do you have these medicinal materials?"
"Haha, there are a total of eight medicinal materials on it, all of which are quite high-end medicinal materials and are somewhat difficult to find."
The old man smiled.
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan naturally understood the implication.
Hard to find, not impossible to find.
That means you have to pay more!
"Tell me what the price is."
Xiao Yuan said rather arrogantly.
There is a lot of wealth in Yan Luotian's Najie, and what Xiao Yuan is most in need of right now is money.
"Girl is really cheerful. Let me tell you straight. If you want to get these eight herbs, you have to go to the second floor of Qianyao. The medicinal materials there are much more expensive than the first floor. But if you want To get the medicinal materials there, you cannot buy them with gold coins. Instead, you must follow the above requirements to refine an elixir of equal value to the medicinal materials before you can take the things away. Only alchemists are eligible to enter."
The old man chuckled.
"Oh?" Hearing this, Xiao Yuan was not too surprised, he just looked interested.
When an item is precious to a certain level, gold coins are no longer worth it. At this time, you need to take out other things of equal value to exchange it.
And
Xiao Yuan sensed Xiao Yan's breath, but he seemed to have encountered some minor troubles.
"In that case, please lead the way."
After coming back to his senses, Xiao Yuan said lightly.
"Hehe, the old man will remind the girl here first. The value of the medicinal materials you need is probably at least a fourth-grade or even fifth-grade pill to be exchanged. If you can't refine this level of pill, then..." Seeing Xiao Yuan nodded in agreement, the old man smiled even more and said kindly.
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan sighed, with some regret in his voice.
"I'm really not a fourth-grade or fifth-grade alchemist."
"This"
The old man's smile froze when he heard this.
The next moment, he saw the woman in white dress in front of him take out the alchemist robe from the ring and put it on. On her towering chest was a badge issued by the Alchemist Guild. Inside the badge, the six ripples on the medicine cauldron were so dazzling.
"So you are a sixth-grade alchemist. I am sorry. Please follow me!"
The old man's expression changed very quickly. A touch of respect appeared on his face almost instinctively. Then he bowed humbly and led the way.
"Let's go and see if there is what we need on the second floor."
He tilted his head and smiled triumphantly at Xiao Yixian and the other two. After receiving a slightly helpless roll of the eyes, Xiao Yuan took her hand and followed the old man. He was also very curious about the extremely rare medicinal materials the old man mentioned. After all, for alchemists, medicinal materials are more attractive than pills.
The second floor of Qianyaofang was not as luxurious as Xiao Yuan had imagined. The slightly simple decorations gave it a sense of elegance. It was clear that the owner of Qianyaofang seemed to have some taste.
At this moment, there were some crystal cabinets in the hall of the second floor. In the crystal cabinets, there were some jade boxes. In the jade boxes, there was a faint gleam. At first glance, it was clear that they were not ordinary things.
In the hall, there were also many figures. Judging from their clothes, most of them were pharmacists. It seemed that they also wanted to exchange some rare medicinal materials on the second floor.
Although the atmosphere on the second floor seemed a little wrong at the moment, Xiao Yuan and the others still attracted a lot of attention when they went upstairs. After seeing Xiao Yuan's sixth-grade pharmacist robe, everyone was in awe.
But soon, their eyes shifted to the two figures at a counter somewhere.
There were two figures, one old and one young. The old man was wearing a light yellow robe and had a red face that was particularly conspicuous. At this moment, he was looking arrogant and staring at the black-robed young man in front of him.
Looking at the fair and handsome face of the black-robed young man and his longer hair, Xiao Yuan also raised his eyebrows.
It has been a long time since I last saw him, why does he feel that his younger brother has become more handsome? Swallowing the strange fire actually has this effect?
However, it seems that this old man wants to snatch the medicinal materials from Xiao Yan?
Looking at the red-faced old man with one hand on the jade box containing the medicinal materials, Xiao Yuan's eyes condensed slightly, and he immediately walked to the side of a bystander and asked:
"Excuse me, what happened?"
Hearing the pleasant voice, the man who was asked also showed surprise in his eyes. This sixth-grade alchemist is actually a young girl?
"Well, sir, let me introduce you to the red-faced old man first. He has a great background. He is Qi Shan, the chief alchemist of the Black Emperor Sect. It is said that he has reached the sixth-grade level not long ago. He should be the strongest person in the alchemy skills in the Black Emperor City. Moreover, relying on the strength of the Black Emperor Sect, he is also a big man with great weight in the Black Emperor City. Ordinary people naturally dare not compete with him.
This time, he took a fancy to the elixir that the young man also wanted to exchange, so he wanted to use his power to pressure others as usual, but the man was also a temper. Obviously, he didn't buy it, so there was a stalemate."
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan nodded, and after giving this person a bottle of third-grade elixir, he pulled him towards Xiao Yan.
At this time, Xiao Yan was confronting Qi Shan. He found that the mysterious sixth-grade alchemist came over with a female companion. He instinctively wanted to be alert, but he inexplicably felt that the other party was his own, so he couldn't be alert. Moreover, this person looked too familiar.
But I don't remember knowing a sixth-grade alchemist with such a female companion?
When Qi Shan saw Xiao Yuan coming over, he politely bowed and said with a smile: "Sir."
"I want the herbs in your hand!"
The cold voice interrupted Qi Shan's words at this moment, and it sounded domineering, causing Xiao Yan and Qi Shan's faces to change.
Qi Shan's face was very ugly, but Xiao Yan's face was very strange.
The moment this mysterious person spoke, he knew the other party's identity.
This... Isn't this the third... Third sister!
Xiao Yuan's words also made many people stunned, and then they looked at Qi Shan with some gloating. Just now, he opened his mouth like this, wanting to take the herbs from the black-clothed young man. Now, less than a moment later, he was treated in the same way by another sixth-grade alchemist, which really made people secretly happy.
"This"
Seeing this, Master Yao of Qianyaofang was also in a difficult position. He looked at the three people in front of him with an awkward expression, especially when he looked at Xiao Yan, the apology in his eyes almost overflowed.
"Your Excellency's action is too unruly."
Qi Shan said with a gloomy face.
"You old thing is interesting. You are allowed to fight with others, but others are not allowed to fight you?"
Xiao Yuan sneered.
"You!"
Qi Shan's face became more and more ugly after hearing this. Since he was promoted to the sixth-grade alchemist, no one dared to give him face like this.
"You may not know that I am the chief alchemist of the Black Emperor Sect."
Qi Shan's face changed for a moment, and then he forced a smile. He wanted to have a good exchange with Xiao Yuan, but Xiao Yuan was too lazy to pay attention to this kind of trash. He immediately spoke coldly and interrupted his words again.
"Black Emperor Sect? Is it very strong? Even if you die here today, the Black Emperor Sect will not dare to say a word. Do you believe it?"
The moment the voice fell, a majestic breath burst out from Xiao Yuan's body, directly shocking Qi Shan back dozens of steps.
"Comparing with my backstage? Are you qualified?"
The cold voice was a little bit arrogant, and the arrogance in the words was just like the daughter of some powerful forces, which made people imagine.
Seeing Xiao Yuan so into the play, Xiao Yixian and Xiao Yan both looked quite strange, but Xiao Yixian was covered by a veil, so no one noticed. As for Xiao Yan, others just thought he had no choice but to watch the two big guys fight.
"Although these medicinal materials are of good value, they are only worth a fifth-grade pill. This is a Douling Pill. It should be more than enough to buy these medicinal materials."
Xiao Yuan ignored Qi Shan's changing face and threw a Douling Pill directly, causing an uproar among the people around him.
"This"
Although Master Yao's eyes flashed with unexpected joy, he still looked at Xiao Yan. After all, this was the one who wanted these herbs in the first place.
"No need to look at him, this kid won't have any objections."
Xiao Yuan waved his hand and said calmly.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan shrugged helplessly and nodded at Master Yao.
"Old Yan."
Seeing this, Master Yao also hurriedly handed the pill to the white-haired old man beside him for inspection.
After a while, the white-haired old man finished the inspection and bowed respectfully to Xiao Yuan: "I'm afraid your alchemy skills are better than the former Medicine King Han Feng. The quality of this Douling Pill is the best I have ever seen in my life!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience fell into silence. (End of this chapter)
