Seeing Guan Ruolan's anxious expression, my heart warmed. Even if she didn't mean what she said, it was undeniable that she cared about me. It's just that Guan Ruolan was a girl who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
I gave her a meaningful glance. Guan Ruolan was slightly startled. It was reasonable to say that I wasn't an impulsive person. Moreover, she had also noticed the pained expression on Peng Haoran's face. This was enough to show that the Peng Family had to pay a considerable price for these pills.
Huang Yaoshi used his filial piety to extort an exorbitant price. This in itself had the nature of moral coercion. If I could see some clues and pour cold water on him, perhaps there would still be room for bargaining. In other words, this wasn't showing off, but fighting for the Peng family.
Guan Ruolan couldn't help but admire him. He could have just stood by and watched, but this stinky brat had to stand up for the injustice. He was really kind-hearted.
Think about it, if he wasn't so outstanding, would she have loved him without hesitation?
Seeing my determined expression, Guan Ruolan could only sigh and let go of my arm. This scene fell into Chen Haonan and Huang Yaoshi's eyes. Both of them became a lot more excited and couldn't wait to see me bark like a dog.
Soon, I opened the small porcelain bottle, and the fragrance of herbs assailed my nostrils. It smelled really good. This fellow really had some skills. Although he was acting all high and mighty, he really did have some skills.
After a while, a few light green pills appeared in my hand. The faint fragrance lingered in the room, making people feel relaxed and inexplicably happy.
"As expected of a first-tier alchemist of the True Martial Hall. Such high quality pills are definitely priceless." At this moment, the middle-aged man next to Elder Li showed a look of admiration and couldn't help but click his tongue in wonder.
Looking at the situation, it seemed that Chen Haonan hadn't revealed that Li Meiyu had been kidnapped. Otherwise, the Li family's people would probably blame me. But then again, Chen Haonan also had an undeniable responsibility. Originally, I hadn't invited Li Meiyu to come with us. It was my own negligence and Chen Haonan's failure to be at my beck and call. Fortunately, Li Meiyu had escaped unscathed. I guessed that Chen Haonan was saying that she was too tired and fell asleep.
"Of course, Brother Huang's skill in alchemy is enough to be called a dragon among men, but some people just like to stick scallions in a pig's nose." Chen Haonan shook his head and said, obviously pointing at the mulberry tree and scolding the locust tree.
I noticed that these people were always mocking me, but they didn't seem to be talking about me. They were always using different methods to mock me. It was truly hateful.
"Haha, Brother Nan, you flatter me. I only have a small achievement. Compared to you, it's not even worth mentioning. Who doesn't know that you are the commandment …" Huang Yaoshi hadn't finished speaking when he was interrupted by Chen Haonan.
"Low-key, low-key. Don't talk about this kind of thing everywhere. Before I climb to that position, I'm too embarrassed to say it." Chen Haonan repeatedly waved his hand and reprimanded him.
The two of them spoke vaguely, but it brought about a sense of mystery. The True Martial Hall was originally very mysterious. Unless one could join it, it would be almost impossible to know everything about it.
This kind of secrecy was also thanks to the strict rules and regulations. After all, this special organization was always secretly investigated by some mysterious foreign organizations.
Seeing the two of them flatter each other, I was a little speechless. I held the pill next to my nose and deeply sniffed it.
"Little Divine Doctor, what are you doing?"
Elder Peng suddenly became a lot more nervous. He was afraid that I wouldn't say anything and would swallow the pill that belonged to him. How embarrassing would that be? With Huang Yaoshi's temper, even if he humbly begged him to refine a second bottle, he would still have to put forward some additional conditions.
Although the Peng family was rich and had a solid foundation, they couldn't withstand his "sharpening knife".
"Xiao Zhuang, look at how anxious Elder Peng is. Don't eat this pill …" Elder Li hadn't finished speaking when his words abruptly stopped.
They couldn't help but open their eyes wide. They saw me crush a pill and pile up the powder in my hand. I sniffed it again.
"Fallen Flower, Congealing Dew Grass, Blood Lotus Flower, Black Tongue Orchid …" I said no less than ten ingredients in one breath. It was as if I was reciting a book without stopping, causing them to be somewhat dazed.
After obtaining the Medicine King's inheritance, not only did I have the miraculous medical skills, but I also had a profound and unfathomable alchemy technique. In fact, these two techniques had similarities. Alchemy technique was like acupuncture technique. It required a lot of practice in order to better summarize the experience. However, in my mind, there was a wealth of theoretical knowledge. Even if I didn't dig out all of it, just the tip of the iceberg would be enough to completely defeat Huang Yaoshi.
As the saying goes, amateurs watch the fun, while experts understand the artistry. Other than Chen Haonan who could understand a little, the rest of the people had a confused look on their faces. They couldn't help but look at Huang Yaoshi.
"Cough. Brat, I didn't expect you to recognize a few ingredients. However, what you said isn't completely correct. Moreover, there are a few ingredients that aren't complete. If we were to strictly grade them, it would be difficult for you to pass." They didn't notice the surprise that flashed in Huang Yaoshi's eyes.
At this moment, looking at his serious attitude, they didn't think that Huang Yaoshi was speaking carelessly.
"You … Just obediently bark like a dog." Huang Yaoshi couldn't help but say. He seemed to be a little impatient.
"Haha, are you feeling guilty?
Did I say everything correctly? Are you panicking now?
Is there a need to distort the truth like this? "I revealed a sneer and asked one after another.
Huang Yaoshi couldn't help but curl his lips. "Brat, what do you mean?
As a first-tier alchemist, do you think I don't have the qualifications to criticize you?
Originally, I thought that you were a promising young man and wanted to introduce you to the True Martial Pavilion to become an entry-level alchemist. But now, it seems that there is no need for that. "
