The person who came was known to Long Chen. Not only Long Chen knew him, but very few people in the Imperial City knew him. He was the president of the Alchemist Guild - Master Yunqi.
"Mr. President, this kid suddenly came here and caused mischief. I will drive him away right now." The old man said quickly when he saw Master Yunqi.
Long Chen rolled his eyes and pretended to be grateful: "Are you Master Yunqi? Great, Long Chen thanks you for your life-saving grace."
Yun Qi originally looked unhappy, but after hearing what Long Chen said, he couldn't help but be stunned and asked: "My child, have you recognized the wrong person?"
"Mistaken admission? No, absolutely not." Long Chen shook his head, pointed at the old man and said: "My mother spent hundreds of thousands of gold coins to buy a tiger bone pill from you through this master, and then she cured my disease."
Sorry, I'm so grateful."
When Long Chen said this, the old man's face suddenly changed. Yun Qi's face turned cold and he looked at the old man and said: "Guan Cheng, tell me, what is going on?"
"President, don't listen to his nonsense..." Guan Cheng explained quickly.
"Hey, why don't you admit it? We, the people of the Alchemist Guild, are really upright and upright, and we do good deeds without leaving our names behind. However, you sold my mother a defective tiger bone pill, which is an indisputable fact." Long Chen sneered.
.
Although Guan Cheng kept winking at him, Long Chen pretended not to see it. Old Bangzi, do you think my Long family's money is so easy to cheat?
Guan Cheng is an old man from the Alchemist Guild. He was originally a medicine boy for Master Yunqi, but he didn't have any talent for refining medicine.
But Guan Cheng had worked conscientiously by Master Yunqi's side for decades. Master Yunqi took pity on him and gave him a job as a deacon of the Alchemist Guild, helping him with some chores.
The waste elixirs he sometimes refines are handed over to Guancheng for processing. The normal process is that the useful parts of these waste elixirs will be dug out and mixed into some medicinal liquids. The waste elixirs are not sold to the outside world.
This is related to the issue of professional ethics. If it is reported that Master Yunqi actually sells waste elixirs, he will be laughed at by his colleagues.
Master Yunqi sighed, looked at Guan Cheng and said: "You have been with me for decades, and you know my temper. Go and never come back."
Old Guan Cheng's face was pale, and there was a trace of unwillingness in his eyes: "My lord, I..."
"Go ahead," Yun Qi raised his hand and said calmly.
Guan Cheng almost collapsed on the ground. Yun Qi's words were equivalent to expelling him from the Alchemist Guild.
A deacon who was originally high and mighty suddenly lost everything. Guan Cheng seemed to have aged more than ten years in an instant.
"Hey, I told you to stop pretending. You have been cheating and swindling outside for so many years, and you will not be able to spend all the dirty money you earned until you die. Why are you pretending to be such a poor thing?" Long Chen said disdainfully.
As a deacon of the Alchemist Guild, this old man was very close to some princes. He had gained countless benefits over the years. Looking at his face, Long Chen felt sick.
Guan Cheng's face became angry, and a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, but he said nothing and left slowly with his head lowered.
Watching Guan Cheng disappear, Master Yunqi shook his head and said to Long Chen: "Thank you, young man, otherwise the old man would still be kept in the dark."
"Hehe, this old man defrauded our family into bankruptcy. I am deliberately seeking revenge. Don't be polite to me," Long Chen said with a smile.
Master Yunqi said with some surprise: "Haha, the boy is quite straightforward and does not look like a sinister and cunning person. Not bad."
"Haha, how could you hide this little kid from your seniors? Since you can't hide it, you might as well pretend to be a good person." Long Chen spread his hands and said with a smile.
Master Yunqi couldn't help but feel happy. For many years, everyone had been respectful to him when they saw him. This was the first time someone spoke to him like this. It felt very interesting.
"Boy, you didn't come to our Alchemist Guild just to complain, right?"
"Of course not, I'm here to test the alchemist." After Long Chen finished speaking, he stretched out his right hand.
call!
A small flame jumped up to the fingertips. In order to leave a deep impression on the master, Long Chen moved his fingers slightly, and the flames jumped back and forth on the fingertips like a naughty monkey.
“Good control”
When he saw the flames, Yun Qi nodded slightly. It was pretty good to condense the pill fire at this age, but Long Chen's subsequent movements made him a little moved.
The control of the power of flames mainly comes from the strength of the soul. The way Long Chen uses it so flexibly shows that his soul power is much higher than ordinary people.
But what he didn't know was that Long Chen was hiding his clumsiness. If he showed the ancient secret technique in his memory, he didn't know if it would scare the master in front of him.
"Very good, your soul power is a bit stronger than ordinary people, and you are a promising candidate for alchemy." Yun Qi nodded.
Hearing what Yun Qi said, a stone fell in Long Chen's heart. If he could retain his strength, it would be better to retain it as much as possible.
"Come on, I'll take you to test it." After saying this, Master Yunqi left with Long Chen.
Looking at the two people leaving, everyone who was using the elixir fire to refine medicinal materials in the hall couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
"Holy shit, there's no need to take an assessment, just go to the test directly?"
"How could this happen? He can't be a relative of Master Yunqi, right?"
"Fu's relative, isn't that kid Long Chen, a notorious trash in the Imperial Capital?"
The dozen or so people in the hall are here to test the alchemist today, but as usual, they need to purify a herbal medicine and reach the standard before they can conduct the following test.
But Long Chen skipped this procedure directly, making them angry but helpless.
This is the Alchemist Guild, a supreme place. No one dares to fart one more time and can only hold their depression back in their stomachs.
In a basement of the Alchemist Guild, Master Yunqi pointed to a crystal in front of him and said: "Stir up your flame."
Long Chen nodded, stretched out a finger, and the flames on his fingertips condensed, slowly pointing at the crystal.
On the crystal, several lines appeared in succession. Master Yunqi said lightly: "Danhuo is a low-level yellow-level person, so it is barely qualified."
Dan fire is divided into four levels: heaven, earth, mysterious and yellow. Each level is divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. Long Chen's alchemy fire is condensed by himself. It is not a beast fire, nor a fire of heaven and earth, so the yellow level is inferior.
Very normal.
After saying that, he took Long Chen to a pool. The pool was only half a foot deep, and the bottom of the pool was covered with hundreds of crystal clear beads.
"Exercise the power of your soul and see if you can make the beads surface."
The pool in front of him was not a real pool. The water inside was called True Soul Mercury. When Long Chen touched the water carefully, he found that the water suddenly amplified the power of his soul by more than ten times.
Long Chen immediately felt relieved. Now that his soul power was still unable to move objects through the air, it seemed that he was overthinking it.
The power of the soul circulated, and suddenly a dozen beads slowly surfaced under the influence of the power of the soul.
However, Long Chen suddenly discovered that Master Yunqi was looking at the beads with a shocked expression.
Oops, the secret is going to be revealed.
Long Chen hurriedly released his soul power and circulated his spiritual power, making himself pale and shaky, giving the illusion that his soul power was overdrawn.
"Master...am I qualified?" Long Chen said breathlessly.
"Xuanjie, it's actually Xuanjie," Master Yunqi muttered as if he didn't see Long Chen's performance.
After a while, Yun Qi noticed that Long Chen had collapsed on the ground. Long Chen's acting skills were definitely at the level of a movie actor.
Not only was his face as pale as paper, but his eyes were also a little dazed, looking like he was exhausted.
"Very good. The power of your soul is indeed extremely powerful. You are a talent that can be made. This time I picked up a good seedling." Yun Qi said with a slight smile.
When Long Chen heard this, his eyes lit up: "Master Yunqi, I really want to practice alchemy. I wonder if I can become your registered disciple."
Yun Qi shook his head and said: "I don't dare to accept you. You should practice well. I will give you a chance in the future, a chance to reach the peak of alchemy."
Seeing Yun Qi's refusal, Long Chen smiled awkwardly and said, "I mainly want a name so that no one will dare to bully me when I go out, right?"
Yun Qi was stunned and couldn't help laughing. Long Chen's straightforward character made Yun Qi a little bit dumbfounded.
Over the years, he has never met such an interesting young man, but Long Chen's abnormal soul power made him very optimistic about Long Chen.
"Don't worry, I'll give you a Dan Tu Waist Card later. Who dares to bully you?" Yun Qi said with a smile.
Long Chen couldn't help but be overjoyed. Most people who wanted to enter the Alchemist Guild had to take the pharmacist qualification exam first. After completing the exam, they could only take the alchemist qualification exam one year later.
The pharmacist is just an entry-level person, which has already made countless people jealous, while the alchemist is an official alchemist.
"With your current elixir fire and soul power, it is still a little difficult to refine the elixir, but within a year, you will definitely be able to truly refine the elixir. I just distributed it in advance, and it is not a violation," Yun Qi said with a smile.
Long Chen was grateful. Although Long Chen could despise anyone in the art of alchemy, he had to say that Yun Qi was an elder worthy of respect.
Master Yunqi personally made an alchemy disciple's nameplate for Long Chen, and also gave him a medicinal cauldron and a set of alchemy robes. The materials of the alchemy robes were very luxurious, and there was a pattern of an alchemy star tattooed on the chest, which was the symbol of the alchemy disciple.
The medicine cauldron is made of free copper and red gold. The materials are exquisite and the shape is more reasonable. It is not sure how much higher it is than what Long Chen bought before.
In addition to the two things, what surprised Long Chen was that Master Yunqi also gave him a space ring.
That is a very magical ring. As long as you input the power of the soul, you can open the space inside and store any items.
It was a luxury item worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins. Long Chen had never dared to think about it before. After inputting the soul power into the ring, he found that there was a space of several feet square inside, which made Long Chen extremely grateful.
Master Yunqi told Long Chen that with his waist card, Long Chen could buy medicinal materials at the Alchemist Guild at a 50% discount, and he could also study the alchemy experiences of all his predecessors for free.
Long Chen suddenly felt like a chicken leaping onto a branch and turning into a phoenix, so he bought a large amount of Fengfu Dan medicinal materials and some other herbs from the Alchemist Guild.
When Long Chen stepped out of the Alchemist Guild, he felt like he was a different person as he entered and exited. He was worthless when he entered, but he became worth a million when he came out. Even his waist was straight. From now on,
You can now see people through your nostrils.
Long Chen returned home with a full harvest. As soon as he entered, he saw Bao'er guarding the door. When he saw Long Chen, he pulled him directly to his wife's room.
As soon as he entered the door, Long Chen couldn't help but be stunned, his heart beating wildly a few times.
