CHAPTER XXXIV

Interesting people

————————————

......

It was still an ordinary tavern, Jiang Heng and He Huanglou were sitting opposite each other by the window on the second floor.

No one recognized them, even He Huanglou rarely showed up, so few people noticed that the atmosphere here had already been calm and tentative from the beginning, and there was a faint sense of tension.

He Huanglou stared at Jiang Heng: "So now...... You should know exactly what a top-grade elixir means!"

The young man on the other side was holding the glass of wine between his fingers slowly, and there was a circle of ripples on the surface of the wine, Jiang Heng said in a low voice: "Whoever has a top-grade pill means that he may have the secret recipe for refining a top-grade pill! That's why you want to talk to me alone, right?"

"The secret recipe of the top-grade elixir is the lifelong pursuit of my generation of alchemists!

He Huanglou expressed his intentions, and at the same time, he also indirectly told Kang Chu that for the secret recipe of the top-grade elixir, he would even do some drastic things.

"Then you should be even more clear......" Jiang Heng maintained his innate composure and calmness, sat there, and quietly looked back at He Huanglou: "Your interest must not provoke my temper!"

The glass tilted, and a drop of wine fell from the glass, just as it slowly fell onto the table.

'Jingle' with a crisp sound.

The drop turned into a droplet-shaped drop of ice as it fell.

"Ice Flame Qi ......" He Huanglou looked shocked: "You are really an alchemist!"

"I've said it three times!I'm not!" Jiang Heng smiled with a slight upturn on the corner of his mouth: "At least not yet......"

Silence followed......

After the other party repeatedly emphasized that he was not an alchemist, He Huanglou couldn't keep asking.

Because he understands that even if the other party is not an alchemist, there is definitely one or a force behind it that holds the top-level elixir. However, according to the current situation, it is more likely that Jiang Heng has a master behind him who understands the secret recipe of the top elixir.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come out for auction with a top-grade pill like this.

If so, such a person cannot be provoked.

An alchemist is a temperamental person in the industry...... In the same class, the dignity of the alchemist even surpassed that of the elders of those sects, and even the heads of the sects.

Having a first-grade alchemist to help is equivalent to one more martial arts realm master, no, it is a lot of martial arts realm masters!

This kind of status cannot be replaced by people who work at will.

As a two-skin alchemist, He Huanglou knew this very well.

Because of these, he enjoyed a level of respect and treatment that ordinary cultivators could not find in their lifetime.

The silence started from Jiang Heng's side and broke from Jiang Heng's side.

"You shouldn't want too many people to know about that pill! Otherwise, you wouldn't have deliberately misidentified the level of that pill just now!"

He spoke again, breaking the deadlock of silence, and He Huanglou did not hide his thoughts:

"The clues of the top elixir are not something that everyone is willing to share. The old man can't get rid of these!"

Subsequently, Jiang Heng introduced himself again: "My name is Jiang Heng!"

He Huanglou reminded: "You have already been introduced!"

Jiang Heng ignored his reminder, but continued: "I am the head of the Qingyan Sect!"

"Qingyan faction?"

He Huanglou was puzzled, because he had only heard of the Qingyan Ancient Sect, and had never heard of the existence of the Qingyan Sect.

"You old guy is a bit interesting, I think I'll deal with you again soon!" Jiang Heng said, "So...... You'd better not try to cross the line. If the relationship is stiffened, the interests of both parties will be lost!"

Then he got up and seemed to be about to leave, but when he turned around, he spoke again: "By the way, I want to ask you something......

He Huanglou said: "But it doesn't hurt to say it!"

Jiang Heng asked, "Does the Shicheng Chamber of Commerce have medicinal herb seeds?"

"Quality assurance is definitely the first in the industry!"

"That's good! I need some, no, a lot!"

......

After leaving the tavern, the two went their separate ways.

He Huanglou returned to the Shicheng Chamber of Commerce, and Jiang Heng went to the big market.

On the way, the old ghost, who had already been impatient, finally spoke: "Stinky boy! Yes, with a few words, he actually recruited a second-grade alchemist into his camp. ”

"It's not about solicitation!" Jiang Heng said slowly: "It's just that in the area of alchemists, I need to find someone to be a step." ”

"Are you sure this man is reliable?"

"Not necessarily reliable!"

"Then you're completely gambling!"

"I'm an ordinary mortal, and I can't compare to you back then! I killed all the alchemists in one go, almost breaking the inheritance of alchemy. You're really nobody......"

Jiang Heng finally brought the topic to the matter of the old ghost slaughtering the alchemist back then, and when he was talking to He Huanglou a long time ago, Jiang Heng was already shocked by this incident.

From the old ghost saying that he didn't understand pharmacology at the beginning, then to knowing a thing or two, and finally to hating the alchemist.

He should have realized that the old ghost must have had something to do with the alchemist back then, but he didn't expect this to be the case.

If it weren't for the presence of He Huanglou at that time, he needed to remain calm, he would have ripped off Futu Qisheng and vigorously questioned what the old ghost had done back then.

Regarding the slaughter of the alchemist, the old ghost's answer was also very simple: "The alchemist has indeed been killed by the king......!"

Seeing that the old ghost did not deny it, Jiang Heng asked, "Then hundreds of thousands of years have passed, why did the top-grade pill disappear?"

The old ghost sneered: "There are two possibilities, either your Terran is too stupid in the future, or your Terran is too selfish......"

Jiang Heng understands this truth and takes the inheritance into his own hands, this kind of selfish desire is easy to understand......

He acquiesced: "That's true! A lot of people are selfish!"

......

Walking on the hard stone slab, I looked at the market in front of me, which was gradually increasing in numbers.

After walking in silence for a while, the old ghost spoke:

"Do you want to learn how to refine top-grade pills?"

Jiang Heng knew that this was probably something that the old ghost had hesitated for a long time.

From beginning to end, there was an invisible barrier between them. This estrangement keeps both sides on their toes......

This is the best proof of this.

How to break this barrier, Jiang Heng doesn't know, maybe this is the particularity of his plug-in, just let it go with the fate.

But now that the old ghost is relieved, Jiang Heng naturally will not give up such a good opportunity: "Are you willing to teach?"

"It depends on whether your talent meets the requirements of this king!"

With that faint smile, Jiang Heng walked into the Qingyan City Market and went straight to the refining area.

......

And at the Shicheng Chamber of Commerce, after the end of the auction.

Duanmu and Jiang Liu'er also took the gold coins they had obtained and left the auction hall with the crowd.

It had been about half a pillar of incense, when He Huanglou returned to the door of the Shicheng Chamber of Commerce.

A pretty figure has been waiting there for a long time.

"Are you waiting for the old man, or are you waiting for someone else?"

"Naturally, it's the one who I've never met but gave me a fourth-order crystal nucleus!"

The woman smiled coquettishly: "I heard that he is a very interesting person......

"That guy isn't your average funny!"

After He Huanglou finished speaking, he turned to look at the Qingyan City Market opposite the Shicheng Chamber of Commerce.

The woman thought, "Then I have to hurry up and see how interesting he is before he leaves......."
