Chapter 1241 - quid pro quo
"Let's go. After seeing Bai Qi and the three people walking downstairs, the blue-robed boy hurriedly beckoned the two middle-aged men beside him, walked downstairs quickly, and chased after them.
Bai Qi walked in front, and behind him were Xianchuan Yan and Tie Guanyin, the two former village owners became Bai Qi's followers, but they didn't complain, but they looked honored.
It is naturally a bit of an honor to be next to a mid-Qiong-level powerhouse, although there are not many mid-Qiong-level powerhouses in the Ten Thousand Worlds Empire, but it is not a radish and cabbage, so the mid-Qiong-level is already a great powerhouse in this world.
It is also an honor to be able to follow the middle of the Qiong level.
"Uncle, what are we going to do next?" asked Bai Qi curiously, he was a little concerned about the next step.
Although they all knew that the reason why Bai Qi came to Fancheng was to do what Bai Qi said, they didn't know what this thing was.
Now I finally can't help but ask.
Bai Qi glanced at Xianchuan Yan, and saw that he really wanted to know, so he said: "Go and find the Purple Spirit Sweet Potato Stone, it is best to be able to entertain the Stone Mine of the Purple Spirit Sweet Potato Stone, then it is the best." ”
"Purple Spirit Sweet Potato Stone?" Xian Chuan Yan shook his head suspiciously, he had never heard of what was called Purple Spirit Sweet Potato Stone, but Tie Guanyin on the side knew that he smiled stinkily and wanted to speak.
Bai Qi glared at him and told him to shut up.
No, before Tie Guanyin said it, he asked Bai Qi to stop, and shook his head helplessly with some grievances, and he didn't dare to say it.
"Uncle, there are people following us. Xianchuan Yan frowned, feeling that someone was following, so he looked back and saw that there were three people closely behind, led by the blue-robed boy who lost his temper in the tavern.
"Well, I've found out. Bai Qi nodded, what Xianchuan Yandu discovered, couldn't Bai Qi find out?
"Hurry up. Bai Qi let out a low snort, then quickened his pace, and ran directly into the street next to him, and the speed of Xianchuan Yan and Tie Guanyin was not slow, and they followed.
The blue-robed boy in the back saw that the three people had run away, and hurriedly chased after the two of them, but when they came to this street, there was no white shadow, and suddenly the blue-robed boy stomped his feet with a distressed look on his face.
"Damn, it's so fast. The blue-robed boy scolded angrily, his eyes were unwillingness and sadness.
"Childe, what should we do?" the middle-aged man next to him also asked him a little lonely.
The blue-robed boy shook his head, with a self-deprecating look on his face: "What else can I do, go back." ”
"Hey!" both of them sighed sadly, and then followed the blue-robed boy, turned around and prepared to leave.
However, just behind them, Bai Qi and Xianchuan Yan were three people, with their hands clasped to their chests, staring at them with a smile.
Suddenly, the blue-robed boy was stunned, and the two subordinates beside him also looked horrified.
"What is the purpose of following us?" Bai Qi asked him, asking the blue-robed boy.
The blue-robed boy never expected that Bai Qi not only did not leave, but stood in front of him, which made him have a trace of expectation in his flustered heart.
He walked up to Bai Qi, then solemnly saluted, bowed and clenched his fists, and after completing this set of tedious movements, he said, "This senior, are you an alchemist?"
"Introduce yourself first, and then I'll consider answering your questions. Bai Qi's face returned to normal, without smiling or angry, just looking at him calmly.
The blue-robed boy was stunned for a moment, then reacted, smiled apologetically, and then said: "My name is Luo Fanying, and I am one of the five major families in Fancheng, the young son of the Luo family. ”
Luo Fanying answered Bai Qi's question respectfully, not daring to have the slightest disrespect, now that Bai Qi is his last hope, he naturally doesn't dare to treat Bai Qi badly.
"Wow, you turned out to be the young master of the Luo family?"
Bai Qi didn't react, but Xianchuan Yan exclaimed, his face was full of shock, it was obvious that this Luo family was very famous, so Xianchuan Yan was also very clear.
Tie Guanyin also looked envious, staring at Luo Fanying.
This is the young master of the Luo family, although the Luo family cannot be said to be a cosmic-level force, but in Fancheng, there is also a huge family property, and the influence is very great, even if it is related to those powerful forces in the Desolate Heaven Realm.
It's just that I don't know why this young master of the Luo family stopped them.
But it's clear that there's something to say.
"Uncle, the Luo family is one of the five major families in Fancheng, and it is a rare big family in the entire barren realm. Xianchuan Yan saw that Bai Qi still had a puzzled look, so he took the initiative to solve Bai Qi's confusion and reminded him in a low voice.
Bai Qi only knew this, but even if he knew, Bai Qi's attitude towards Luo Fanying had not changed, and as for the five major families and the like, it had nothing to do with Bai Qi.
"What are you looking for me?" Bai Qi asked him in a flat tone.
Luo Fanying didn't react, but the two men beside him frowned, a little dissatisfied, Bai Qi's attitude at the moment, but Bai Qi didn't care what they thought.
"Senior, you haven't answered yet, are you an alchemist?" Luo Fanying asked Bai Qi with an expectant face, eager to know the answer.
Bai Qi shook his head and smiled: "I'm sorry, I'm not an alchemist, you recognized the wrong person." ”
"Let's go. After speaking, Bai Qi turned around and left, letting the two follow.
Xianchuan Yan was better, but Tie Guanyin was stunned, he had clearly heard Bai Qi admit that Bai Qi was an alchemist, why didn't Bai Qi admit it now?
Luo Fanying was stunned for a moment, and then ran to Bai Qi in a little anxious, spread her hands, stopped Bai Qi, and even her face changed, but there was no anger, only unwillingness.
"Senior, if you are really an alchemist, please save the Luo family, please. Saying this, Luo Fanying bowed deeply to Bai Qi, and the courtesy was very sincere.
But Bai Qi was still unmoved, and still raised his feet and left.
Xianchuan Yan felt that it was normal for Bai Qi to do this, after all, these were all strangers, and in a strange city, it was best not to cause trouble, and the shopkeeper also said before, and now the alchemists in Fancheng are not in a good situation.
Obviously, Bai Qi is also to avoid risks and not want to cause too much trouble.
So Xianchuan Yan felt normal, but Tie Guanyin felt that Bai Qi was a little too indifferent, no matter why, at least listen to what Luo Fanying said first, and then make a decision, right?
"Senior, you..." Tie Guanyin wanted to persuade Bai Qi, but before he could say anything, he was frightened by Bai Qi's sharp eyes and didn't dare to say anything.
"Senior, Luo Fanying begs you, save the Luo family, save my father. ”
"My father is the head of the Luo family, and he is also an alchemist, but because he can't refine the Gathering Spirit Pill, he was imprisoned by the city lord. ”
"As long as you can save my father, I am willing to cede half of the Luo family's property in exchange for my father's safety. When Luo Fanying said this, her face was painful, but she was very resolute.
As long as the father is safe and sound, half of the family wealth is gone, and there is nothing to be earned.
When Tie Guanyin heard this, he immediately let out an exclamation, his eyes were all golden, half of the family wealth, that was the Luo family's family wealth, the reason why Fancheng has five major families is because these five families are extremely rich families.
Half of their wealth, how much is that? Tie Guanyin couldn't even think about it.
The owner of Qixingzhai, he was originally a greedy person and a gangster, otherwise he would not be interested in family wealth.
Although he restrained a lot in front of Bai Qi, he couldn't hide the things in his bones.
Bai Qi glanced at him, and he didn't dislike Tie Guanyin because he paid too much attention to property, but this kid's IQ was a little worse.
"I'm still sorry, I can't help you, I still have something to do, if I don't do it now, I'm afraid it's too late. Bai Qi still shook his head and refused, his tone low.
But what Bai Qi said was the truth, if you don't go to find the Purple Spirit Sweet Potato Stone now, you will have to go to the Zhao Wangfu in the Desolate Heaven Realm in a few days, and then you will have no chance to find the Purple Spirit Sweet Potato Stone.
And Bai Qi is unwilling to get involved in cause and effect that has nothing to do with him, similar to the Luo family, he doesn't want to get involved.
Finally, and most crucially, Bai Qi doesn't want to go wrong, it is not difficult to gather the spirit pill, let alone refining one, even if it is to teach an alchemist overnight, to ensure that the alchemist can refine it.
However, there is a problem with the Gathering Spirit Pill itself, the Gathering Spirit Pill is a pure earth elixir, and there is no place other than the earth that can be refined.
This is also why so many alchemists in Fancheng will be arrested, because they don't know how to refine at all, and it has nothing to do with ability.
Naturally, in such a situation, Bai Qi did not dare to help the Luo family, because if he was not careful, he would expose his identity as an earthling and cause trouble, especially what if he attracted the attention of the cosmic god organization and thus noticed the earth?
Now the earth is the era of scientific and technological take-off, if it is discovered by the cosmic gods, it will become the second empire of all worlds, and return to the era of slash-and-burn farming?
Why is Bai Qi so cautious, because this is the Ten Thousand Worlds, it is already a big world, and the Cosmic God Organization is afraid that it exists everywhere, so Bai Qi does not dare to act rashly.
If it was in the Tianwu World, Bai Qi would naturally not be worried, the Tianwu World would not have the secret whistle of the Cosmic God.
All of this made Bai Qi dare not help the Luo family.
But Luo Fanying made an amazing move at this moment, only to see his legs bent and kneel on the ground with a plop.
"Senior, Luo Fanying begged his predecessor to save my father. Luo Fanying's face flushed, he also felt ashamed, but as long as he could save his father, he was willing to do anything.
Bai Qi's brows furrowed, Luo Fanying did this, which made Bai Qi a little unsure of what to do, on the one hand, his filial piety and sincerity, and on the other hand, his own worries.
"If you promise me one condition, I will agree to yours. Bai Qi thought about it for a while and decided to give him a chance.
"You say?" Luo Fanying raised her head excitedly, her face full of hope.
"Do you know the Purple Spirit Sweet Potato Stone?" Bai Qi asked him, his face solemn.
"What? Purple Spirit Sweet Potato Stone?"
Luo Fanying was stunned, he didn't expect Bai Qi to make such a request, but he quickly reacted and hurriedly said: "How much do you need, senior? ”
Bai Qi didn't expect that by mistake, the Luo family had a purple spirit sweet potato stone, but thinking about such a rich family, there should be such a spirit stone.
"Do you have ten pieces?" Bai Qi asked.
"I'll give you a hundred yuan, what's the matter?" this was Luo Fanying's answer.
"I promised, save your father. This is the answer to the question.
Bai Qi's words fell, Luo Fanying and his two subordinates were full of excitement, if Bai Qi was a woman, Luo Fanying was even so excited that she wanted to hug Bai Qi.
Looking at Luo Fanying's simple excitement, Bai Qi also admired his filial piety.
