Chapter 12: Admission to the Alchemist (2)

Qingshi did not conduct the third-level alchemist assessment, and was sitting in the large living room drinking tea at the moment, accompanied by a young man about thirty years old, this was Yu Tao, a disciple of President Lin, and the two chatted happily.

President Lin and the three of them are holding a meeting behind closed doors. Before, Qingshi proposed to take the third-level alchemist, and the three of them dropped their jaws in shock, and then President Lin said that he wanted to study and study, so he called Yu Tao to sit with Qingshi for a while, and the three of them closed the door and went to "study".

In the conference room, the three of them were happy and sad, happy that a genius had fallen from the sky, and they now believed that Qingshi had a high chance of being admitted to the third-level alchemist, although he hadn't even taken the second-level exam.

The Liang Yuan Alchemist Guild has not registered an alchemist for almost three years, and when the three-year assessment period arrives, if even one alchemist fails to develop, it will not only be greatly damaged, but the key is that the three old faces, especially President Lin's, don't know where to put them.

Now that such a genius is here, there is no doubt that he can win a lot of benefits from the headquarters and have a bright face.

But there is also a worry, that is, the Liang Yuan Alchemist Guild does not have the qualifications to assess the three-star alchemist at all, which is only available to the Beijing Guild.

"No," Elder Lu was categorical, "You must not let him go to the capital to participate in the assessment, wouldn't that be a registration in the capital guild, and the king cannon would be cheapened for nothing." ”

"Of course I understand, but we don't have the qualifications to take the test," Chairman Lin frowned.

"So let you figure it out, my elder. And you Liu bamboo pole, don't pestle like a bamboo pole, say a word. Elder Lu said hurriedly.

"I don't think there's a big problem," Elder Liu said: "We let him take the second-level alchemist exam, and after passing the exam, he will directly issue a certificate to register as a second-level alchemist, no matter how many levels he is promoted to in the future, no matter where he participates in the promotion assessment, after all, he is registered in our Liangyuan." ”

"......Shh I don't know this yet? Elder Lu said, "I'm worried that he will know that we can't take the third-level assessment, and we won't even take the second-level exam, so we will go directly to the capital." ”

"Then let's just say it," Elder Liu said, "Let's just say that I hope he will register with us for Level 2 first, and then go to the capital to participate in the promotion assessment in the future, so that I can give him some more benefits." ”

"The benefits? Do you have more benefits than King Cannon? Elder Lu said loudly, "Then don't you talk about the difference between registering in the capital and registering in Liangyuan?" said that he went directly to the capital to register, not to mention what if he knew about it later? Don't you blame us. ”

"It's weird, it's weird, he didn't ask." Elder Liu was still tepid.

"No," Chairman Lin made up his mind, "We can't hide it, we didn't say it at first, it was because we didn't know that he might directly register as a third-level alchemist, and now that we know it, we can't hide it, which may affect the future of the little guy." ”

In fact, the three of them are worried about this: the Beijing Guild is also the Mingshan National Association, and President Wang, nicknamed Wang Cannon, is accepting inheritance disciples, and the basic requirement is a second-level alchemist under the age of thirty.

At the age of eighteen, if Qingshi was admitted to the third-level alchemist, it would be very likely that he would be accepted as a disciple of the inheritance by President Wang.

The two elders President Wang, President Lin and Liu Lu all had some old grudges, and the three of them were all squeezed out of the capital to Liang Yuan by President Wang, especially President Lin, who was originally a fifth-level alchemist of the vice president of the General Association.

In the past few years, no one has come to Liang Yuan to register, and that is also due to President Wang's influence, after all, he is the first person in the Mingshan Kingdom Alchemist, the only sixth-level Great Dan Master.

If Qingshi can't reach the third level, then everything is fine, but if Qingshi can reach the third level, then there is a possibility of becoming a disciple of President Wang to take over his mantle, but if Qingshi registers with President Liang Yuanlin first, then President Wang's narrow and irritable nature will never choose him as a disciple, so President Lin will say that it may affect his future.

The three of them were above board, and after some deliberation, they decided not to hide the bluestone.

The three of them walked out of the conference room and sat down in the living room, and after explaining the reason and stakes to Qingshi, Chairman Lin said calmly: "Qingshi Xiaoyou, this is the situation, you can decide where to register." ”

Qingshi understood what he heard, and got up and said to President Lin and the three of them: "The three seniors are really broad-minded. Thank you Gao Yi. But don't worry, I will be registered in Liangyuan, and in terms of alchemy, I will not worship anyone as a master again. ”

"That's right", Elder Lu patted his thigh and suddenly realized, "The little brother Qingshi is young, and his alchemy techniques are so clever, his master must be an unborn master, I think most of them are no worse than that king cannon, where do you need to worship the master again, hahaha, why didn't I think of it at the beginning, isn't it like this, Qingshi Xiaoyou?" ”

Qingshi only listened and smiled silently.

Seeing this, the three of them all acquiesced to Qingshi, and they all relaxed and smiled at each other for a while.

An hour later, Qingshi walked out of the Alchemist Guild, and Elder Lu was sent all the way out of the gate.

Unlike when he entered the door, Qingshi at this moment was already a second-level alchemist of the Mingshan Kingdom Alchemist Guild.

The jade pendant nameplate that proves the identity is hung on the belt with a colored silk ribbon, and the jade pendant is carved with exquisite patterns, which are the spiritual patterns carved by the refiner, which contains identity information, and the monk scans it with spiritual power, and the registration information can be read, and it is absolutely impossible to make a fake.

In addition to being an identity nameplate, this jade pendant is also a treasure for storage, containing nearly 100 cubic feet of space, which is very valuable.

In addition, Chairman Lin also gave ten three-star True Qi Pills, according to Chairman Lin's idea, he would definitely be able to cultivate Qingshi to the eighth stage of the Qi Cultivation Realm within three months, but Qingshi knew that this was just an increase in consumption for a few more days.

After saying goodbye to Elder Lu, Qingshi turned around and entered the Dan Pharmacy next to him, and now he knew that the largest Dan Pharmacy in the county was the property of the Alchemist Guild, and the person in charge of this shop was Yu Tao, President Lin's disciple.

As soon as he entered the store, Yu Tao saw it and greeted him in person, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Brother Qingshi, you are the first alchemist registered by our Liang Yuan in the past three years." ”

His eyes swept the jade pendant on Qingshi's waist, and Yu Tao was surprised again: "Level 2!" Tsk, the Bluestone brothers are simply a genius! ”

Qingshi can't help but be modest.

Yu Tao then said: "Now that the Qingshi brothers have joined, we will finally not be hung up in the three-year assessment." It's so good. By the way, Brother Qingshi, if you have time, you might as well complete some alchemy tasks in the next few days, you see here, the supply exceeds demand, and the order price has increased by three percent. ”

Qingshi looked in the direction pointed by Yu Tao, but saw two tables side by side in the spacious center of the store, and there was a queue of more than ten people in front of each table, two clerks sat behind the table and wrote something on the paper, and one clerk was counting the spirit stones handed over by the people in line.

Qingshi was puzzled and asked Yu Tao, "May I ask Brother Yu what ......is this?"

Yu Tao saw that Qingshi didn't understand the situation, so he immediately explained to Qingshi.

Listening to Yu Tao's explanation, Qingshi understood that in this cultivation world, the elixir is a very important cultivation resource, but there are thousands of monks and no one in a thousand alchemists, and the supply and demand relationship of the elixir is naturally more monks and less porridge.

Therefore, if you want to buy pills, especially high-grade pills, you often need to book in advance. In order to get the pre-ordered pill as soon as possible, some people do not hesitate to add a lot of extra money to the normal pill price.

Although the pills of the Alchemist Guild are more expensive, the quality of the pills is guaranteed, and you will never buy inferior or fake medicines.

In this world where the law is negligent and only about force, the extent of the proliferation of inferior and counterfeit drugs can be imagined.

Registering as an alchemist not only enjoys the benefits of the guild's protection and discounted cultivation resources, but also has the obligation, that is, to help the guild refine a certain amount of pills for free every year, of course, the alchemy materials are produced by the guild.

As a second-level alchemist, Qingshi's current obligation is to refine a certain number of two-star elixirs for the guild every year, but the task is not heavy, and it mainly plays a symbolic meaning. Qingshi has understood, and with his level, he can practice at most ten furnace pills and complete it.

The most important source of elixir for the Alchemist Guild is that the alchemists themselves refine the elixir that they sell to the guild or entrust the guild to sell.

Seeing that the shortage of pills had intensified recently, Yu Tao suggested to Qingshi that he complete the alchemy task as soon as possible to alleviate the urgent situation, and at the same time, the elixir refined after completing the task was entrusted to the guild to sell, which could also allow Qingshi to take advantage of the current high price increase opportunity to earn more spirit stones.

Qingshi had no opinion and agreed to come down. But he was puzzled and asked, "Dare to ask Brother Yu, why is there a particularly large demand for pills during this time?" ”

"After the New Year, it's the triennial admissions exam", Yu Tao was slightly surprised, "Why don't the Qingshi brothers know?" ”

"I know this," Aoshi understood, "Oh! Are you saying that these people buy pills for people who are taking the school entrance exam? ”

"Yes," Yu Tao replied, "It's always good to use pills to mention cultivation before exams, so there will be such a wave of medicine purchases every three years." By the way, Brother Qingshi, you don't seem to have entered the school yet, why aren't you allowed to prepare for the exam? ”

"I'm going to do that," Aoshi replied, "so I wanted to know more." ”

"Well, Liangyuan College is on Dahua Road in the east of the city, I remember that there will be an enrollment brochure posted half a year before each enrollment, with a detailed introduction to the college, by the way, there is also an admissions consultation office to ask."

"Well, I'll go see it one day, thank you, Brother Yu." Qingshi didn't want to continue this topic, and asked, "Where do you get the medicinal materials for the task?" ”

"Okay, wait a minute. Xiaodong, Xiaodong. Yu Tao called a young man, "You take the bluestone alchemist to the medicinal material warehouse to find Master Huang to get the medicinal materials." ”

Turning his head and saying to Qingshi: "Brother Qingshi, I won't take you with me if I can't leave here, you go to the warehouse to find Master Huang Lunhuang, tell him about your task, and he will know how to prepare for you, and also, you will give him the task." As for the elixir outside the mission to be sold to the guild or entrusted to the guild to consign, just find me or Master Du Feng. ”

Qingshi said goodbye to Yu Tao. I went to get the medicinal materials and went back to the hotel directly, and when I got to the hotel to renew the room, I knew that the hotel was also the industry of the Alchemist Guild, Yu Tao sent someone to say hello, and the room rate was half discounted, and I couldn't help but sigh that it was good to enjoy the shade with my back against the big tree.
