As soon as Xiao Yan stepped into this map shop called "Gutu", the fire attribute aura on his body that could not be concealed alarmed the old man who was drawing.

The old man involuntarily glanced at the unfamiliar fire attribute Dou Ling, and then skimmed the alchemist medal with five lines on his chest.

The old man's hand couldn't help shaking, and the map he was drawing was instantly invalidated, but the old man didn't care at all, but stared at Xiao Yan with a little heavy breathing.

When the old man saw Xiao Yan's immature face clearly, he estimated that Xiao Yan would be twenty or thirty years old at most, and finally couldn't hold it anymore and squeezed out a smiling face:

"As an alchemist, you suddenly came to the territory of this snake man, I'm afraid you got the news about the alien fire, right?"

Xiao Yan looked at the old man, there was a terrifying scar from the left cheek to the corner of the eye, although he tried his best to squeeze out a friendly smile, but this scar still made him a little fiercer.

"But I looked away, I originally thought it was just an ordinary fighting spirit, but now it seems that your aura is strange?"

"Hehe, the old man is not talented, he used to be one of the top ten powerhouses of the Gama Empire, the Ice Emperor Hai Bodong."

"Oh, my name is Xiao Yan, a one-star Dou Ling, a five-grade alchemist."

“……”ヽ(‘⌒´メ)ノ

“……”⊙_⊙

"Ahem, you don't seem surprised?" Hai Bodong was embarrassed.

(⊙o⊙) Wow! Ice Emperor! Xiao Yan's eyes widened, and he took half a step back, looking frightened.

“…… Ahem, there is no need to mention the past, I have lived in seclusion here for decades, and I am familiar with the terrain here, and because I am an ice attribute fighting qi, I am extra sensitive to the energy of the fire element......"

Hai Bodong paused, then continued, "So I drew a map with a few locations where there might be strange fires. ”

"Oh." Xiao Yan nodded, indicating that he knew, and then continued to look for the map of the Tagore Desert in the shop.

"......" Hai Bodong's eyes narrowed, he was waiting for Xiao Yan to speak first, so that he could ask for a higher price, and it was best to use a map with information about the alien fire, and exchange it for the help of this alchemist with infinite potential.

"How much does this map cost?" Xiao Yan picked a fairly detailed map and asked.

Hai Bodong stared at Xiao Yan stubbornly, trying to see Xiao Yan's hidden emotions, but he didn't see anything, as if Xiao Yan really didn't care about the strange fire.

But how could the alchemist not care about the alien fire, there was only one explanation, Xiao Yan had already obtained the news of the alien fire, and he only needed a map to compare it, and he didn't need his intelligence at all.

Thinking of this, Hai Bodong showed a smiling face again, gently dug out the palm of his hand in his arms, and felt out a thin piece of parchment.

"I'm a man with a lot of interest in making maps, and I've been around the Tagore Desert and I've been lucky enough to get some news about the fire. I've explored the locations and routes in these messages and recorded them all on this map, which will definitely help you. Hai Dongbo laughed.

"However, these are small things, and more than twenty years ago, I found a very secret remnant that attracted the snake people Queen Medusa to hunt me down.

"Queen Medusa is the pinnacle of the Emperor, and I naturally lost that battle in her hands without the slightest accident. Although she took the opportunity to escape afterwards, she was caught by her snake sealing spell - not only did her body age rapidly, but even her strength was sealed at the Dou Ling level. ”

After speaking, Hai Bodong walked to a quaint wooden shelf in the store, took down a remnant picture only the size of a palm from it, put it together with parchment and handed it to Xiao Yan.

Hai Bodong sighed: "For so many years, I have been hiding here to study the secret of that fragment, hoping to get something useful from it to help me break the seal. But this remnant picture is only a small part of the whole picture after all, no matter how experienced I am, it is impossible to crack it! ”

Hai Bodong wiped the sweat from his palms as if nothing happened, and prayed in his heart that this remnant image would move Xiao Yan.

"Well, the secret of this remnant is indeed a big secret, I can tell you, but do you dare to listen to it?"

The end of the shelf made Hai Bodong unable to hold his breath, and gave out all his underwear, which made Xiao Yan feel very good, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but have a hint of a smile.

However, this smile looked extremely terrifying in Hai Bodong's eyes, and he hurriedly spoke: "Haha, it seems that this remnant picture is worth a lot of money, maybe it is worth it for you to refine a six-rank pill for me in the future?" ”

Xiao Yan saw that Hai Bodong looked a little frightened, and instantly understood something, and laughed: "It's worth it, that's too worthwhile, don't say six grades, even if it's seven or eight grades, it's all worth it!" ”

The cold sweat on Hai Bodong's forehead burst out at once, and he couldn't stop flowing down: "Ahem, I don't dare to ask for so much, as long as you are willing to refine a six-rank pill for me in the future, it is enough." ”

"Don't you want to break the seal? You also know that Queen Medusa is only the pinnacle of the Dou Huang, if you force her to lift the seal for you, it is enough to have a Dou Zong. ”

"Ahem...... Ahem, I think it's easier than inviting a Dou Sect to refine a six-rank pill. ”

"In the intervening decades, I have found a prescription that can break the seal. As long as the elixir mentioned above is refined, then I will be able to restore my strength, and I don't need to bother you to invite a Dou Zong. Hai Bodong said in a deep voice.

"Then why don't you look for Furukawa? He is also a sixth grade, and if you have news of a strange fire, you can definitely invite him. Xiao Yan asked.

This made Xiao Yan very puzzled, the Ice Emperor Hai Bodong was not from the Gama royal family, and he had no hostile relationship with the Yunlan Sect, and he still had information about the strange fire in his hand, Guhe was definitely willing to refine the pill for him.

"That elixir needs an alchemist with a different fire to refine it, Danwang Guhe ...... He didn't have a fire. ”

"Uh...... Before today, I only suspected that there was a strange fire in those places, and I was not sure, if I didn't, and I was exposed to everyone, it would be a bit of trouble. Hai Bodong scratched his face in embarrassment.

"I see." Xiao Yan nodded, and didn't care that Hai Bodong fooled himself with uncertain news, but just said: "When I break through the sixth grade, I will definitely refine medicine for you—I also hope that you will take the initiative to hand over the remaining part of the remnants to me at that time." ”

Hai Bodong was even more embarrassed, he originally wanted to use the remaining half of the residual picture as a hole card, but he didn't expect to be discovered by the other party, so he could only squeeze a smile and nod yes.

"But you also know the rules of the alchemist, right? The medicinal materials of the Liupin Pill, with your current strength of Dou Ling, can you gather those precious medicinal materials? Xiao Yan's tone changed and he asked.
