Chapter 289 The Fallen Medicine Guild

Not long after leaving the restaurant, Su Yun noticed that there were two more tails behind her.She paid no attention to it.

Huangluo City is the territory of the Ye family, and a face like her who came out of the other courtyard of the Huang family would be a little abnormal if people didn't pay attention to it.

As long as the people in the dark don't make trouble, she will pretend not to notice and continue shopping in a swaggering manner.

……

Different from the Eastern Continent, where talents are scarce, in the Western Continent, not only the Alchemist Guild is huge, but even the summoners have a special city as a meeting place.

It's a pity that the Tianshou City occupied by the Summoner's headquarters is quite far away from Huangluo City, and what Su Yun is most eager to get is the whereabouts of the seventh-rank alchemist, so even after learning of the existence of the Tianshou City, she immediately ignited to go to communicate. Summoning thoughts, but she still restrained this yearning, and gave priority to contacting the alchemist guild.

According to the detailed map of Huangluo City given by the steward of the Huang Family, Su Yun quickly found the branch of the Alchemist Guild in Huangluo City.

The branch building is magnificent, but there is no guard in front of the door, and the deserted flow of people makes Su Yun even wonder if this place is distributed by the Alchemist Guild!

After knocking on the door several times but no one answered, she pushed open the half-covered door and walked slowly into the main hall.

The light in the room was rather dim, and seven or eight neatly dressed men and women were sitting cross-legged on the left and right. In front of each of them was a pill furnace with purple smoke.

The moment Su Yun entered, a young man opened his eyes. After seeing Su Yun's face clearly, he said proudly, "Who are you? What's the matter? If you are looking for a pharmacist, go to the next room to register. Wait for us After refining the medicine, it will be dealt with naturally."

"I'm a pharmacist, I came to the guild to ask for help." Su Yun said calmly, and took out the pharmacist badge issued by the East Continent.

The moment he saw the badge, the young man narrowed his eyes, but the next moment he burst out with disdain: "The waste from the Eastern Continent? He just learned a little bit of three-legged cat skills, so he thought he was a pharmacist?"

"No matter what you think, I am indeed a pharmacist." Su Yun said coldly, glanced at the young man third from the left and the alchemy furnace with lavender smoke in front of him, "In ten minutes, you The alchemy furnace will explode!"

"You say you are a three-legged cat, but you still don't admit it!" The young man who spoke before laughed loudly, "Do you know who he is!"

"Who he is has nothing to do with me. I only know that his pill furnace will explode in 10 minutes at most!"

"Haha, what a shameless guy!" The young man who spoke first stood up, ready to forcefully "invite" Su Yun out.

However, before he could take a step, the owner of the alchemy furnace named by Su Yun opened his eyes: "Shi Qing, he is right, there is indeed something wrong with my furnace medicine, and the pill will disappear within 10 minutes at most." The furnace exploded!"

"What?" Shi Qing was stunned, he looked at Su Yun in disbelief.

His inherent pride made him unable to accept the fact that he was being compared to Su Yun, a waste from the Western Continent!

On the contrary, the owner of the purple pill furnace raised his head calmly and looked at Su Yun: "My friend, you can tell at a glance that my pill furnace is about to explode. Is there a way to stop it?"

"There is a problem with your material ratio." Su Yun said quietly, without any panic on her face.

When the young man saw this, he felt somewhat clear: "I, Shi Qingman, dare to ask my friend Gao's name?"

"My name is Su Yun." Su Yun said simply, suddenly with a flick of her finger, a wisp of wind element entered the pill furnace that was about to explode!
In an instant, the flames flourished!The explosion that should have occurred in 10 minutes seemed to burst the entire pill furnace in the next instant.

But Shi Qingman's face revealed a hint of understanding.

"Thank you." He said seriously, suddenly opened the furnace cover, and threw all the rest of the materials piled aside into the pill furnace!
Immediately, the whole room was shrouded in thick smoke, Shi Qing who was the first to speak was so anxious that his face turned pale, wishing he could rush out of the room immediately.But he saw that both Su Yun and Shi Qingman looked calm and natural, and he vaguely felt that he should probably stay in the room.

Su Yun narrowed her eyes.

This Shi Qingman really has some abilities, he can comprehend his hint in an instant, and find a solution to the problem by analogy!

……

After more than ten minutes of busy work, the alchemy furnace, which was just a hair away from exploding, returned to calm.

Seeing the lavender emerging from the furnace, Shi Qingman breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you friend Su, otherwise my furnace of elixir would be completely useless."

"I am a bystander, and Mr. Shi's methods are really amazing." Su Yun said calmly.

Shi Qing who was at the side took the opportunity to interject: "Eldest senior brother is the direct disciple of one of the four great medicine elders, if you don't even have this ability to adapt, how can you become the head of this place."

"It turns out that you are the person in charge of the Huangluo City branch, but I have neglected you." Su Yun smiled sweetly, "It's just that I don't understand one thing. Why is the branch of the Alchemist Guild so grand and majestic? rundown?"

Shi Qingman smiled awkwardly when he heard the words, and said, "Friend Su just came to the Western Continent for a study tour recently, right?"

"...What do you mean?" Su Yun became more and more puzzled.

Shi Qingman looked around and saw that his companions were concentrating on refining medicine, so he cupped his hands and said, "Friend Su, if you don't dislike it, would you like to go to the backyard medicine field with me to discuss in detail?"

"Being respectful is worse than obeying orders." Su Yun smiled kindly, followed Shi Qingman, and walked out of the hall.

……

Although the Alchemist's Guild has been ruined, Su Yun walked along with Shi Qingman, looking at the splendid scenery along the way, he can still imagine the glory of the past.

The medicinal field covering an area of ​​several hundred square meters is full of precious medicinal materials of various colors. Because of the infiltration of medicinal fragrance, the water here presents a pale milky color, and the soil also has a translucent dark green color reminiscent of jade.

While leading Su Yun for a walk in the medicine field, Shi Qingman explained: "As you can see, my friend Su, the Alchemist Guild in Huangluo City was once brilliant. But... since 19 years ago, Concubine Yuan— —Now it should be called the Empress Dowager Yuan—after the postpartum blood collapse, this place...began to decline...The late emperor no longer believed in pharmacists, and suppressed me many times. The guild of pharmacists also...gradually decided to abandon Huangluo City ..."

"So in Huangluo City..." Su Yun asked in disbelief.

Shi Qingman smiled bitterly and said: "Generally speaking, in the pharmacist branch of the Western Continent, the person in charge must be at least a sixth-rank pharmacist, but I am only a fifth-rank pharmacist, but I was sent by the guild to preside over the branch in Huangluo City. The differences in this, One can imagine."

"That is to say, the general manager has almost given up on Huangluo City?" Su Yun asked.

Shi Qingman nodded: "Over the past 20 years, almost all the alchemists sent to the Huangluo City Branch are low-level alchemists who are still in training, or people who have been excluded in the general meeting. Especially in the past few In a few months, the first emperor passed away, and the new king took over... The new king is the son of the Empress Dowager Yuan... The Federation of Trade Unions sent a message yesterday, asking us to evacuate in three days!"

"This..." Su Yun realized that she really picked the wrong time and wrong place.
