Chapter 696 Do You Think This Young Master Runs a Shelter?
Chapter 696 Do you think this young master runs a shelter?
In the retreat room, Ling Xiao washed his body several times and put on a set of dry military uniform before stepping out of the retreat room.
As soon as he walked out of the retreat room, there were already many people waiting at the door.
"Welcome young master (Master Ling) to leave the customs!" The people on both sides basically bowed and greeted.
Ling Xiao touched his nose and said, "What are you doing?".
Looking at the people in front of him, apart from the people around him, Gu Qin and the senior members of the Gu family were all here, and all of them looked more respectful than before, which made Ling Xiao a little uncomfortable.
Gu Qin stepped forward and cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Congratulations to Master Ling for his great improvement in alchemy. It really makes me feel ashamed to wait!".
Ling Xiao waved his hands and said, "Master Gu Qin is serious. It's just a little hard work. It's really not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning!".
The senior members of the Gu family all showed strange looks, they were secretly paying for "advanced seventh-rank realm, this is not worth mentioning, how can I live if I wait!".
"Okay, let's go, get ready to go to the medicine capital in five days!" Gu Qin waved at the people of the Gu family, and at the same time gave Gu Tan a wink.
Gu Tan understood, and he stayed, and there were several teenagers around fifteen years old beside him.
These young men all cast a look of admiration on Ling Xiao, and the desire to worship Ling Xiao as a teacher immediately appeared on their faces.
"Master Ling, Gu Tan has something to ask!" Gu Tan said with a bow.
Their ancestors have become brothers and sisters with Ling Xiao, so Gu Tan naturally dare not call himself an elder.
Ling Xiao didn't need to guess what Gu Tan wanted to say, he immediately opened his mouth to catch Gu Tan's words and said, "Patriarch Gu, it's better not to talk about your business, after Dan's big competition, I still have important things to do !”.
"Master Ling, you... don't think about it, our Gu family can provide all their expenses, and we will also give you enough rewards!" Gu Tan said anxiously.
"Patriarch Gu doesn't need to say more about this matter, I have no time to mislead my disciples." Ling Xiao refused very simply.
He still wanted to form his own forces, and search for Yun Mengqi's whereabouts, so how could he have time to take in another apprentice, his own direct disciple Xin Li was still being led by his master Mu Huai.
Gu Qin winked at Gu Tan, then said with a smile to Ling, "Since Master Ling has no intention of teaching disciples, then Tan'er, don't make things difficult for Master Ling, go and throw a banquet to cleanse Master Ling, and practice for them by the way. They hit the ground running!".
Gu Tan didn't say any more, and left with those young men.
But before leaving, those teenagers all showed a look of disappointment.
Gu Qin and Gu Tan left together, and besides the people around Ling Xiao, an old man with white hair stayed behind.
Ling Xiao glanced at Wu Fu, then waved to his group of people and said, "Go first, I'll be there later!".
After the others left, Ling Xiao turned to Wu Fu and said, "Your salvation is my life!".
Wu Fu's old face twitched slightly, he really didn't expect Ling Xiao to be so direct, why couldn't he be more tactful?
"The old man knows, so I stayed here to thank you!" Wu Fu said with a slight bow.
"It's useless to just talk. I've always put interests first. If you don't get enough benefits, I can take your life now!" Ling Xiao said very bluntly.
Wufu sighed, "I have already died once, and I don't want to die once more!".
Ling Xiao raised his eyelids and looked at Wu Fu, knowing that what he just said was in vain.
"Tell me, how do you repay me, quick knot flowers are very expensive!" Ling Xiao said again.
Wufu said again, "I can do whatever you want me to do. Anyway, even my dearest apprentice betrayed me. I don't want to live anymore, but for the sake of that little bastard, I think it's better for me to live!".
"Seeing that you are so reluctant, then give me half of your treasure. People like you have lost faith. Even if you become my servant, I feel ashamed!" Ling Xiao was too lazy to entangle with Wufu, and directly opened his chips road.
He originally hoped to take Wufu under his banner, but seeing his attitude, Ling Xiao felt disgusted.
What he wants is someone of value, someone who can follow him faithfully for the rest of his life, not a walking dead who has lost his soul.
Wu Fu frowned, he didn't know what to say.
Why is he also a seventh-rank pharmacist, and now he has put down his posture like this, unexpectedly, Ling Xiao actually looked down on him.
Wu Fu took out half of his treasures to Ling Xiao, but the old man still looked at Ling Xiao puzzled, as if he hoped that Ling Xiao's words were just to test him.
Who knew that after Ling Xiao put away his half of the collection, he left immediately without even looking at him.
Ling Xiao scolded calmly in his heart, "What the hell, you don't have any sincerity in wanting to join this young master, do you think this young master runs a shelter?".
Wu Fu looked at Ling Xiao who was leaving, and felt a moment of bewilderment in his heart.
He is a dignified seventh-rank pharmacist, and is the most welcome guest of all major sects. Now he wants to be a follower for others, but he is ignored. This feeling is the first time he has felt in so many years.
...
Five days later, Ling Xiao and others went to the medicine capital together with several senior elders of the Gu family and four of them representing young alchemists who participated in the alchemy competition.
The medicine capital is the largest capital in the central region, and it is twice as big as the wind capital where the Feng family is located.
This is the territory of the medicine sect and the paradise of alchemists.
The proportion of pharmacists here is countless times higher than anywhere else.
The trading of spirit grass here is also more lively than any city.
Anything you can think of is here.
And here is the headquarters of the Lingcao Hall.
Lingcaotang has branches all over the mainland. It belongs to the joint venture of all alchemist sects and aristocratic families in the Dan League, and the medicine sect accounts for 30% of Lingcaotang's income.
There are probably hundreds of thousands or even millions of branches of Lingcaotang in the whole mainland. Everyone can imagine how huge the income of these 30 income represents.
When Ling Xiao and others first came to the medicine capital, they were also deeply shocked by this capital city.
The high city wall is cast like steel and bronze, and mysterious formation patterns are engraved on it, like a big force suppressing this place, making people look at it from a distance, like a prehistoric beast, giving people a sense of shock. Shocked from the heart.
None of the fighters on the city wall is lower than the Earth Emperor rank, and they are just ordinary guards, and those warriors with the strength of Tianzun are the real leaders.
Such a force can crush any sect below the fifth rank.
And they are just the gatekeepers of the medicine city, one can imagine how terrifying the strength and background of the medicine school are.
It is also the first time Ling Xiao has seen the horror of being one of the best in the middle domain.
Seeing such a scale, Ling Xiao was not only shocked, but also very excited.
Because, he also wants to build such a powerful foundation, and he also wants to become a giant in the Central Territory, and the Black Demon Gate is his best stepping stone!
Bing Ruoshui and Yao Qingmin, who were beside Ling Xiao, came here and looked left and right. It was obviously the first time they had come to such a big city, and they all seemed extremely curious and excited.
"Master Ling, let's settle down first, and then I'll take you to report." Gu Wei, the leader of the Gu family, said respectfully to Ling Xiao.
The old ancestor had spoken, and he had to treat Master Ling like the old ancestor, and he couldn't be negligent, so he didn't dare to put on airs in front of Ling Xiao.
"Well, it's better to settle down first!" Ling Xiao responded lightly.
The Gu family must have their own place in the medicine capital, and Ling Xiao knows this without even thinking about it.
After everyone settled down, Yao Qingmin was the first to suggest that they go to the medicine capital.
"Master, young master, let's go to the No. 1 University in the world, okay? I said that there are many top-quality spiritual herbs and medicinal herbs for sale here, there is nothing you can't think of, nothing you can't see." Yao Qingmin looked at Li Xue and Ling Xiao and said.
At this moment, she is as excited as a child who has never seen the world.
Li Xue gave Yao Qingmin a white look and said, "We are here to deal with business, so please follow Ling Shao's orders!".
It is also the first time for Li Xue to come to the medicine capital, and she also wants to visit the legendary first metropolis.
It's just that they followed Ling Xiao, so naturally it's better to follow Ling Xiao's advice.
Of course Ling Xiao wouldn't stop him, he said to Li Xue, "You can accompany them for a walk, by the way, Liu Qun, you should protect them and don't let anything happen to them."
"It's the young master!" Liu Qun immediately responded respectfully.
Now that he knew that Ling Xiao was already a seventh-rank pharmacist, he served Ling Xiao even more faithfully.
Such an excellent master, following him, are you still worried that you won't be able to advance in the future?
After they went out, Ling Xiao said to Gu Wei, "Elder Gu Wei, what should we do now, you can say, since I choose to help your Gu family, I will definitely do my best."
Gu Wei glanced at Ling gratefully and said with a smile, "All previous pharmacists who want to participate in the alchemy contest must first verify their identity, that is, after passing the review of the Alchemist Association of the Alchemy League, only those alchemists who have reached the third-rank level can participate in the alchemy competition." Sign up to participate, and now they have already verified their identities, but Master Ling, you should not have verified this identity, right?"
Ling Xiao shook his head naturally, "Just tell me what I should do."
"There are still two days before the meeting, why don't I take you there to verify your identity as a pharmacist?" Gu Wei said.
"No problem," Ling Xiao immediately agreed.
On the way, Gu Wei told Ling Xiao that the Danmeng Alchemist Guild has great credibility in the central region, as long as the alchemists who have passed the certification of the Danmeng Alchemist Guild, the certificates issued by them, no matter where they are in the central region. They can all be recognized and respected, and at the same time, they can buy spirit herbs in any city's spirit herb hall and enjoy due discounts. The higher the level of alchemist, the more discounts.
Ling Xiao and Gu Wei came all the way to the Danmeng Alchemist Guild, and found that there were already many people queuing up here.
Obviously, they are all pharmacists who need to pass the certification.
The Gu family is ranked among the top ten members of the Dan League, and they are qualified to open the back door, so Ling Xiao and Ben didn't have to wait, and Gu Wei brought them into the guild.
