Chapter 54: The Poison is Still There
In order to protect him, Yao Lao exhausted his soul power and fell into a deep sleep that the time to ascend to the Yunlan Sect is getting closer, he really needs medicine that can restore his soul power.
Arriving at the auction house, the two walked in.
Before Xiao Yan could start looking, he saw a familiar figure.
"Sister Yafei."
Xiao Yan was very surprised.
Ya Fei, who was wearing a red dress, turned around when she heard the voice. When she saw Xiao Yan's face clearly, a smile immediately appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Just as I was about to call out his name, I saw the latter quickly make a move to stop me.
In a blink of an eye.
The three of them sat in a luxurious box at the auction house.
Xiao Yan drank the hot tea brought by the maid, looked around, and his eyes fell on the back of the luxurious table, "Sister Yafei, you are improving so fast. It has only been a short time since I left Wutan City, and you have become the manager of the Mitel Auction House in the Di Du."
"I was just lucky. I happened to meet a noble person. With his help, I was able to take over the auction house."
Yafei smiled faintly.
Who can interfere with the operation of the Mittel family auction house?
Hai Bodong was startled, as if he had thought of something, and stared at Yafei, "Little girl, could the person you are talking about be the Gun King Nie Yuan?"
"Old gentleman also knows the Gun King?"
Ya Fei was a little surprised, her beautiful eyes showed some seriousness, and she quietly looked at the old man next to Xiao Yan.
She really didn't pay much attention to this old man before.
Hai Bodong snorted, "Don't let me touch him!"
Do the two have a grudge against each other?
Ya Fei felt a little alert and silently memorized the old man's appearance, planning to find an opportunity to tell Nie Yuan about it.
I don’t know which guy is still in Yunlan Sect. He stole her first kiss and left the imperial capital, and didn’t even come to see her when he came back.
Xiao Yan asked: "Sister Yafei, is there anything in the auction house that can restore soul power?"
Generally speaking, anything related to the soul is considered a rare object.
Ya Fei was not too sure either, "Wait a minute, let me check."
Standing up from her seat, Yafei walked to a bookshelf on the side, searched for a while, and then took out a thick book.
"Boy, write down the ingredients needed for the Fu Zi Ling Dan you mentioned before, and let this girl send someone to get them."
Hai Bodong turned his head and said.
Feeling the gaze, Xiao Yan's fingers brushed across the storage ring and took out a prescription, "These are the materials, but I may not have that much money. The most important thing for me now is to restore my soul power."
Hai Bodong frowned after taking it, "It's really not easy to take advantage of you."
He looked up at Yafei, who had almost buried her head in the book, and said, "Girl, get someone to fetch these herbs."
"what?"
Ya Fei looked at it in confusion, then took the paper, scanned it and looked at the old man, "These are not cheap, and some auction houses don't seem to have them."
"What's going on? What has that good-for-nothing Mittel Tengshan been doing all these years? What business is he still doing when there's nothing at the auction house?"
Hai Bodong couldn't help but complain.
Ya Fei was stunned. Where did this old man come from?
"Forget it, just ask them to get me what they have first."
Hai Bodong ordered, "As for the money, the person in the Miter family who dares to collect money from me, Hai Bodong, is probably not born yet."
Ya Fei glanced secretly at Xiao Yan.
The latter opened and closed his mouth silently and uttered two words.
Dou Huang?
After reading the meaning, Yafei became more curious about the relationship between the old man and Nie Yuan. If they were enemies, Nie Yuan must be notified to make preparations in advance.
After noting down the name "Hai Bodong", Ya Fei ordered someone to get some herbs, and continued to search the warehouse for herbs that could restore the soul.
After a while, Ya Fei looked at Xiao Yan apologetically, "I'm sorry, there haven't been any soul-related items in the auction house's inventory in the past year."
A look of disappointment flashed across Xiao Yan’s face.
"But I seem to have heard that there is a place that has it. It just depends on whether you are willing to go."
Ya Fei hesitated for a moment. Xiao Yan immediately showed hope in his eyes, "Sister Ya Fei, where are you?"
"The Nalan family."
Ya Fei saw Xiao Yan's eyebrows twitching, and continued, "They have a plant called Seven Illusions Green Spirit Saliva, the rhizome can refine a liquid that helps to restore the soul."
"Boy, are you having a conflict with Nalan Yanran?"
Hai Bodong keenly felt that when Ya Fei mentioned the Nalan family, Xiao Yan beside him was very emotional.
Xiao Yan turned to look at Hai Bodong, "Old Hai, can you ..."
"You want me to rob? Are you stupid as an old man? The Nalan family is as famous as the Miter family. It's okay for the Mo family, but I don't want to cause trouble for the Nalan family."
Haibodong waved his hand.
Being rejected outright, Xiao Yan felt a bit of a headache. If the teacher hadn't fallen asleep, he would still have a chance. But with his current strength, he might be discovered before he even gets in.
Ya Fei chuckled and said, "Brother Xiao Yan, I didn't ask you to solve it by force. As far as I know, Nalan Jie of the Nalan family has been poisoned and has been seeking treatment for these years. You are an alchemist, you can go and give it a try."
Equal trade has always been the method used by alchemists.
Xiao Yan frowned and tapped the table slowly with his fingers.
"Also, Nalan Jie seemed to be unaware of the incident. Later, he angrily kicked Nalan Yanran out of the house several times because of it."
Yafei looked at him.
……
Nalan Su sat at the head of the bed, feeling a little distressed when he saw his father covered in sweat.
At this time, Nalan Jie woke up slowly.
"Father, how are you feeling?"
Nalan Su carefully helped him up and leaned him against the head of the bed.
Perhaps because he was a little exhausted from the fire, Nalan Jie finally opened his eyes with some effort, "Was it the Gun King Nie Yuan who came before?"
He vaguely heard a voice, but was not sure.
Nalan Su nodded, "Master Nie has a strange fire, Yanran specially asked him to treat you. Master Nie said earlier that your condition has been controlled. Do you feel better?"
Nalan Jie remained silent, as if he was feeling the situation in his body. After a while, he slowly said, "It seems to be a little better than before, but the poison is still there."
Hearing this, Nalan Su was stunned for a moment.
He was deceived? But Nie Yuan didn't ask the Nalan family to pay for anything.
"Master Nie has good intentions after all."
Nalan Jie was more open-minded. In his opinion, alchemists were better at removing poisons. But since Nie Yuan refused to help, there was nothing to say.
"Maybe we need to observe for a while longer."
Nalan Su thought back to what Nie Yuan had said before.
Compared to his previous coma, Nalan Jie is already very satisfied that he is now awake.
At this time, the butler outside the door hurried in, "Patriarch, Master."
"what's up?"
Nalan Su asked.
The butler replied, "There's a young man outside who claims to be an alchemist. He said he can cure the master's poison."
"No, just send him away."
Nalan Su’s first reaction was to the alchemists who came here because of his reputation.
The butler stood still and added, "Patriarch, that man has a strange fire."
"What? Say it again."
Nalan Su was stunned.
"He has a strange fire."
the butler repeated.
Nalan Su looked at his father, who looked thoughtful, "Then please ask him to come in."
