Two days later, Lin Yan was about to leave for Tiandu City, and he decided to go only with the shopkeeper, which made Liang Fengjin and the other three elders of the royal family, as well as Su Lao and McRaw, unwilling, because they all wanted to follow Lin Yan, because they would definitely eat and drink spicy food.

But this time the situation is different, the three elders of the royal family all have names and surnames, in case they are investigated by Xiangluchuan, they will easily find out the details of Lin Yan, and then they will definitely increase the risk.

Su Lao and McLow's strength is very limited, and if they can't reach the Xuandan Realm, they will be much less helpful to Lin Yan, but they will become a burden to Lin Yan.

Once Lin Yan really encounters an unpredictable danger, he can urge the Temple Token given by the God of War to enter the Temple, if there is a drag oil bottle, it will obviously become a stumbling block for him.

Besides, leaving them in Songyue Villa can also be regarded as a town, which can maximize their value.

As for Liang Yuexuan, she naturally stayed in Songyue Villa, she no longer had any nostalgia for the Qingliang Palace, and she was completely separated from the royal family of Qingliang Kingdom, and with the three elders of the royal family, no one dared to bully her, and she could cultivate with peace of mind.

Qianxun Yue and Qi Guanxiong have already left Songyue Villa, and they have to rush back to Fengtian City, especially Qi Guanxiong, his Qilian family can't be without him for a long time.

After saying goodbye to Uncle Kun and Grandpa, Lin Yan set off for Tiandu City with Shopkeeper Pu, and Pei Yao did not go with him, on the one hand, she could not expose the relationship between the two, and on the other hand, she also had to distribute the pills provided by Lin Yan to the group of teenagers she had secretly cultivated......

Tiandu City is located in the center of the Wasteland, not under the jurisdiction of any secular realm, it is the most open place in the entire Wasteland, but it is also the most chaotic place, and even the five major sects cannot interfere.

It is precisely because of this that Tiandu City gathers fugitives and business travelers from all parts of the entire Huangzhou, so it is also known as the most prosperous city in Huangzhou, and is known as the "first city in Huangzhou".

There is no law and order there, but it still follows the law of respect for the strong, as long as it is weak, you must be cautious and be a man with your tail between your legs, but if you are a strong man, you can be lawless and rampant.

Tiandu City is definitely a paradise for adventurers, where you can get rich in a day, because all kinds of treasures are gathered here, and it is the largest place to sell stolen goods in Huangzhou. As a result, gangs of all sizes are everywhere, and fierce street murders are staged here almost every day, but even so, there are many trading houses and clubs, and restaurants and brothels are all over the place.

There is also a semicolon of Duobaolou in Tiandu City, which is located in the most prosperous area of Tiandu City.

Jieqiong had been here many days earlier, and he was sitting in a luxurious living room on the top floor talking to a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man's name is Ju Yaoxian, who is a third-order alchemist who has been certified by the Alchemist Alliance, and he is also a guest invited by Jieqiong.

This person is slightly fat, with a rich face, and is wearing a black robe embroidered with the Danding logo on his chest, and the whole person is obviously a little arrogant.

"Master Ju, as far as I know, your Alchemist Alliance doesn't seem to support this alchemy competition very much, so why do you have to rush to participate?" Jie Qiong looked puzzled, because he had already learned that since this alchemy competition was not sponsored by the Alchemist Alliance, he was not very welcome.

In fact, Jieqiong had already come to Tiandu City, not only to see the excitement, but also to take the opportunity to recruit a few powerful alchemists to join Duobaolou.

As for Ju Yaoxian, he had just arrived, and he was not sent by Duobaolou, but specially arranged by the Alchemist Alliance to participate in the competition, because Ju Yaoxian also had an identity, that is, the elder of the Alchemist Alliance.

It was because he saw Ju Yaoxian suddenly appear, so Jie Qiong asked this question.

"Young Master Qiong, I can't hide it, I am also acting on orders, of course, it is the order of the Lord of the Yan Alliance, so I came to join in the fun, this is not a violation of our cooperation!"

"It's okay, Ben Shao is just a little curious. Jie Qiong smiled faintly, not showing unhappiness, but quite happy, and did not forget to praise two sentences, "I believe that Master Yiju's skills can easily be crowned, which can be regarded as making a name for me Duobaolou!"

Then he also said very generously, "As long as Master Ju is in need, Duobaolou will definitely support it and provide any help, especially all kinds of medicinal materials, which will definitely not disappoint Master Ju." ”

"Young Master Qiong is so refreshing, I'm here for this purpose, but I may need a little too much, because I'm not here to buy medicinal herbs for me. Ju Yaoxian smiled happily and was very satisfied with Jieqiong's performance.

"Master Ju, are you saying that there are other people in the Alchemist Alliance who will also participate, but I don't know who they are?" Jie Qiong was a little surprised.

"In addition to me, there are two young rising stars, I believe that Young Master Qiong has also heard of them, one is Yan Guang, and the other is Ke Tong!"

"It turned out to be the two of them!" Jieqiong had obviously heard of Yan Guang and Ke Tong, because these two were the grandsons of the Alchemist Alliance leader and the son of the deputy alliance leader respectively.

Especially Ke Tong, this person is still Ke Yi's own brother, and Ke Yi also had dealings with Jieqiong before his death, especially when he was in Lingxiu Sect, he also temporarily formed a united front to deal with Lin Yan together.

Then he asked, "But I don't know where they are now?"

Obviously, he was eager to get acquainted, which would be of great benefit to both him and Duobaolou.

"Maybe it's still on the way, and I can tell the dome that this time it's not just the two of them who will be competing, but even our alliance leader and deputy alliance leader will be here!"

"Are they going to compete too?" said Jieqiong, who was even more surprised.

"The two of them have a high status, how noble they are, how could they participate in such a meaningless alchemy competition, in fact, they just want to come and see. Ju Yaoxian showed disdain.

"Then are they ...... here" Looking at Ju Yaoxian's expression, Jie Qiong's heart suddenly sudden, but he wanted to stop talking.

"Don't guess nonsense, my Alchemist Alliance is not an underworld, how could I do that kind of thing. Ju Yaoxian stopped Jieqiong, obviously he knew what Jieqiong was thinking, "Actually, to put it bluntly, the two of them just want to see the prize that Taiyue Tower took out, which is the legendary Ancient Danfang." ”

"Isn't there an Ancient Dan Fang in the Alchemist Alliance, you have inherited it for thousands of years, what's the matter, there won't be a few missing in your hands!" Jie Qiong didn't seem to believe it, the two big names of the Alchemist Alliance had no other thoughts.

"Qiong Shao, do you know the value of the Ancient Danfang?" Ju Yaoxian heard the doubt from Jie Qiong's tone, and his face was slightly displeased.

"Of course I know!" Jie Qiong saw that Ju Yaoxian's face was a little unsightly, and hurriedly smiled, "As long as it is a Danfang, it is a condensation of the alchemist's life's work, and it has gone through countless failures to develop results, not to mention the ancient Danfang, it must be of great significance." Therefore, Master Ju personally went out in order to obtain this ancient pill prescription. ”

"Of course!" Ju Yaoxian nodded confidently, "If it weren't for this Ancient Dan Fang, the dome is small, do you think I would have traveled thousands of miles to come here just for tourism!"

Then he changed his words, "In addition, I heard that Taiyue Tower is just the organizer on the surface, but in fact, there are people behind the scenes. And we want to know the real purpose of this person. ”

"Ben Shao has also heard about it, but this person can let Taiyue Lou host such a large-scale alchemy competition, and its energy can also be imagined, didn't your Alchemist Alliance think of this?" Jie Qiong was even more suspicious of the Alchemist Alliance's intentions.

"Qiong Shao is too worried!" Ju Yaoxian smiled and shook his head, "The Alliance Leader saw this and came here in person, if you can cooperate with this mysterious person behind the scenes, do you say, is it good or bad for the Alchemist Alliance?"

"I see!" Jie Qiong suddenly realized.

"Okay, I won't talk nonsense here, I hope that Qiong Shao can gather the medicinal materials I need as soon as possible, so as not to delay the big thing!" Ju Yaoxian did not forget to remind Jie Qiong.

"Don't worry, Master Ju, you just need to make a list, and Ben Shao will order someone to prepare!" Jie Qiong almost patted his chest to make a guarantee, "And it's all provided for free!"

The reason why he was so generous was that he wanted to further win over Ju Yaoxian and the alchemist alliance behind the other party, especially if he took the opportunity to get acquainted with those two big shots, if the two sides established a deeper and broader cooperation, it would be a huge benefit to him Jieqiong and the Duobaolou controlled by his grandfather.

"Huh...... Then you're welcome!" Ju Yaoxian also smiled happily, and there was a little bit of joy in his smile.

Then he took out a blank piece of paper, on which the names of a large number of medicinal materials were densely recorded, and handed it to Jieqiong.

"Where, after all, we are also a family, Master Ju does not need to be polite!" Jie Qiong said, took the list and looked at it, and was immediately stunned!

Because almost all the medicinal materials on this list are very rare and valuable, and they cover all kinds of medicinal properties, and even the main drugs for refining many medicinal materials, the amount required is also very large, which can definitely make Duobaolou out of stock.

At this moment, a cold sweat was already breaking out on his forehead, and at the same time, he secretly cursed in his heart: "What a shameless person!

Even he couldn't use so many precious medicinal materials for free. Then his face turned very ugly, "Master Ju, why do you need so many varieties of medicinal herbs, and the quantity is too exaggerated!"

Where did he understand Ju Yaoxian's intentions, thinking that the other party completely wanted to kill him.

Of course, Ju Yaoxian also knew the difficulties of Jie Qiong, and he still smiled, "Don't worry, we won't reach out for nothing, here is a part of the deposit!"

As he spoke, he put a gold card of Duobaolou in front of Jieqiong, "After all, the value and quantity of these medicinal materials are not small, and it will be difficult for us to raise enough cash in a short period of time, but I guarantee with my personality that my Alchemist Alliance will not be in arrears for too long, in addition, the alliance leader has also spoken, if Qiongshao can agree to this transaction, the Alchemist Alliance will increase cooperation with Duobaolou in the future, for example, it will make more third-order alchemists become guests of Duobaolou." ”

"But you need such a large amount at one time, it doesn't seem necessary!" Although Jieqiong was a little moved, it was still difficult to understand, and at the same time, he couldn't cut such a large piece of meat ruthlessly.

"It's really hard for me to answer this question, after all, it's a task assigned by the alliance leader, and I'm only responsible for it. "Ju Yao Xian is an old fox, how can he easily reveal the intentions of the Alchemist Alliance.

In fact, the purpose of the Alchemist Alliance is to take advantage of the competition to loot all the important medicinal materials on the market in advance, so that other alchemists will be unable to compete with them.

I have to say that this method is quite despicable, but it also fully shows that they are very eager to get the Ancient Danfang. And Ju Yaoxian couldn't reveal this intention, otherwise it would be true, which would be extremely detrimental to the reputation of the Alchemist Alliance.

Jie Qiong obviously didn't figure this out, "It's hard to raise such a large amount of medicinal materials, Master Ju should also be very aware of this, even if it is mobilized from other places, I'm afraid it will be difficult to satisfy you." ”

He also deliberately prevaricated when he said this, because there were only five million gold coins in that card, and at best, he could only buy one percent of the medicinal herbs, and who knew when the remaining ninety percent of the amount would be paid, he didn't dare to believe Ju Yaoxian too much.

This is the case with businessmen, they dare not take credit easily, which will affect the normal business plan, and even lead to the breaking of the capital chain, which is a disaster.

Ju Yaoxian didn't care, "Take as much as you want!"

His real purpose was not to want so many medicinal materials, he just wanted to monopolize it temporarily, and he didn't let other alchemists get it. Isn't it that he is buying precious medicinal materials in Duobaolou, and the Alchemist Alliance has also sent others to other trading houses to do this kind of thing.

"This semicolon in Tiandu City is currently only about one percent, and I can't get more than that. "What Jie Qiong said is basically the truth,

"Okay, let's do it for now!" Ju Yaoxian nodded in agreement......

After Ju Yaoxian left, Jiefu came again.

"Young Master, something strange has happened to the Iron Sword Gate!"

"Tell me more!" Jie Qiong felt a little surprised.

"This matter starts with a wedding, and the specific situation is very strange...... "Jiefu told Jieqiong in great detail about the news he had just gotten.

Duobaolou was already well-informed, and the intelligence report about the Iron Sword Gate that Jiefu got was also relatively detailed, except for the fact that he had not heard the death of the Elder Taishang of the Iron Sword Gate, everyone else knew about it.

"What? How could this be! Could it be that Lin Yan really didn't go to rescue that little girl? And the wedding of Tiejianmen was disturbed by a mysterious person, the bride disappeared mysteriously, and Tie Daoming, the groom, was also weirdly unconscious, losing such a big face, but they didn't continue to investigate, what is going on with all this?"

Jie Qiong was really hard to figure out, and he was extremely disappointed, mainly because his wish that Lin Yan was killed by the Iron Sword Gate did not come true.

At this moment, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and at the same time, he gritted his teeth, and his heart was extremely unwilling.

"This matter has spread, and all kinds of speculations have emerged in endlessly, because the way the Iron Sword Gate handled it is really incredible, but no matter what, Lin Yan's figure did not appear in the Iron Sword Gate, and the Iron Sword Gate didn't even know who was secretly making trouble, and what was even more incomprehensible was that they gave up the investigation when they became a laughing stock, which also surprised everyone!"

"What about that little girl, is there any news of her?" Jie Qiong naturally did not forget Jiang Lingsha.

"No! She was like she had evaporated, and there was no news. ”

"It's really strange!" The more Jie Qiong thought about it, the more incomprehensible he became, and then the conversation changed, "What about Lin Yan, where is he?"

"Some time ago, he returned to Fengtian City and lived in the Mu family, and during this period, a fire broke out in the palace of Qingliang Kingdom, and this fire was also quite strange and intriguing, just before Princess Tanyue, that is, before Liang Yuexuan got married. ”

"Then do you estimate that this fire is related to Lin Yan?"

It's hard to say, he was not caught by the royal family of Qingliang State, and it is said that the arsonists were punished on the spot. In addition, Liang Yuexuan was not rescued, otherwise there would not have been the strange thing that happened in the Iron Sword Gate later. ”

Jiefu then said, "And Lin Yan later appeared in Songyue Villa in Zeyan City, but the time was after the strange incident at the Iron Sword Gate. ”

"What about Liang Yuexuan, is she also in Songyue Villa?" Jie Qiong realized the key.

"We didn't find out her whereabouts, and Lin Yan also went to Songyue Villa alone, so Songyue Villa also held a banquet for him. ”

"Find out Liang Yuexuan's whereabouts as soon as possible, as long as you find her in Songyue Villa, tell Tiejianmen immediately, so that we don't have to frame the blame, I believe that Tiejianmen will guess that the whole thing is definitely Lin Yan's doing." Jie Qiong was obviously unwilling, and he was not an ordinary person, and he knew how to deal with Lin Yan.

"Young Master is wise!" Jiefu didn't expect Jieqiong's thinking to be so agile, and he quickly captured the key, and he appreciated Jieqiong more and more in his heart!

In fact, Lin Yan himself has long been aware of this, in order to prevent trouble, except for a very few people who know that Liang Yuexuan is in Songyue Villa, even the children of the Lin family and the Song brothers and sisters don't know, because he knows very well that Jieqiong is the driving force behind all this, and Duobaolou's espionage ability is also very powerful, and Liang Yuexuan's whereabouts must not be revealed, otherwise it will definitely cause trouble.

After all, the Iron Sword Gate is not easy to mess with, even if Uncle Kun is in charge, he doesn't want to easily clash with the Iron Sword Gate.
