Chapter 368: Quarrel
The S-level task of finding a scholar has already aroused Bai Chen's strong interest. Let alone what kind of treasures are hidden in the Tomb of the Sea that day, just a Ma God has already made Bai Chen's blood boil.
He likes difficult challenges, so since he touched this task, he must complete it!
However, while Bai Chen and the others were chatting and laughing, an old woman was walking towards this side with her head down and her body stiff.
This old woman carrying a bamboo basket looks nothing special at first glance, she is dressed in coarse linen, but if you look carefully, you will find that her eyes are closed when she walks.
In her sleeve, there was a squirm, and in a moment, the small round head of a grasshopper poked out.
The whole body of the grasshopper was dark red, and its round eyes were dull. When it saw Bai Chen's appearance clearly, a pair of cute little eyes suddenly revealed a touch of human-like coldness.
Hehehe, Bai Chen, I finally found you...
The old woman shuttled among the crowded mercenary groups, and after a while, she came to a distance of less than 20 meters from Bai Chen and the others. At this time, the Ma God hidden in her sleeve also revealed two lines of sharp the teeth of.
Bai Chen, go to hell...!
Just when it was about to jump out of the old woman's sleeve, its arched slender legs stiffened suddenly, as if it felt something, which made it shrink back quickly.
"Bai Chen!"
In the distant woods, two figures flew over quickly, and when one of them saw Bai Chen standing still, a mist instantly appeared in his beautiful eyes.
Looking along the sound, Bai Chen couldn't help being startled when he saw the person who came, "Teacher?"
"Teacher, when she learned that you were trapped in the Hengduan Mountains, she went to rescue you early." Lin Mengyao softly reminded her.
Hearing this, Bai Chen's heart was touched, and seeing Shu Kexin's tense face, he knelt down on one knee guiltily: "Teacher, I made you worry!"
Landing in front of Bai Chen, Shu Kexin looked at Bai Chen back and forth, and saw that he was fine, then withdrew the sparkle in his eyes, and put on a stern gesture: "If you encounter something beyond your power, The enemy should choose to retreat immediately, how did the teacher teach you!"
"I'm withdrawing. If I don't withdraw, I'll be dead." Bai Chen looked innocent.
"Withdraw?" Shu Kexin frowned: "You five are the fastest, but all four of them came back, and you were the only one trapped. How dare you tell me that you withdrew!"
Shu Kexin is very aware of Bai Chen's strength, although he is not as good as Leng Ziqing and Lin Mengyao in terms of realm, but in terms of body skills, he is definitely above those two!
If he wanted to run, there must be a chance of escape.
Based on Shu Kexin's understanding of Bai Chen, she expected that he would deliberately lure that ant god away for the sake of his companions, and that's why he had a narrow escape from death!
In the face of life and death, being able to regard her companions as precious as her life is something that makes Shu Kexin gratified, but at the same time, she does not want anything to happen to the apprentice she cares about the most.
Being reprimanded by Shu Kexin, Bai Chen raised his head and glanced at Tianjike beside him, and said in a deep thought: "Thanks to Senior Sister Chu from Tianjitang for saving me, I have come back with my life."
"Jinran, how is she?" Tian Jike immediately lifted Bai Chen up excitedly, and Bai Chen could feel that the palm of his hand was trembling violently.
Seeing Tianjike's worried face, Bai Chen smiled lightly and said, "She was only injured a little bit, nothing serious, and now she has gone back to Fengshen Temple to heal her injuries."
"Oh... It's also good to go back to the Phoenix Temple, after all, there is the Venerable Medicine Master in the Phoenix Temple, who is the world's number one pharmacist, so he can better heal her body."
Hearing Tianjike's words, Bai Chen's eyes suddenly brightened: "Master Tianji, may I ask if there are any alchemists similar to Venerable Yao in our academy?"
Bai Chen's words made Tianjike and Shu Kexin startled.
A pharmacist like Venerable Medicine? How could that exist!
"This..." Tianjike hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "If you want to talk about alchemists, the strongest in the world is the Venerable Medicine of Phoenix Temple, and the second only to him in alchemy skills should be the alchemist guild. Your president is now, and if you come down again, it should be Gu Hong, the master of the alchemy hall in our inner courtyard."
"Ancient Hong?"
Bai Chen was extremely unfamiliar with this name, even unheard of.
"Gu Hong is not only the apprentice of Elder Xuan, but also the apprentice of the president of the Alchemist Guild. Her alchemy skills can be called the third person in the world!"
That's it...
Bai Chen nodded slowly.
When he came to Shengtian Academy, he firstly wanted to find a method suitable for his own cultivation, and secondly, he hoped to find a master alchemist who would be able to refine and refine the panacea that would change his spiritual veins.
However, since Gu Hong is the teacher of the Alchemy Hall, this matter is not easy to handle.
From Chu Junran and Tianjike alone, it is not difficult to see that the seven masters of this academy are extremely protective of the calf. They taught the students of the alchemy hall several times in the past, and made the alchemy hall disgraced. He concocted alchemy, it was a ghost!
"well!"
With a melancholy sigh, Bai Chen now regrets his impulsive actions back then.
"I understand your thoughts. Gu Hong, let me talk about it." Known for his extraordinary ingenuity, Tian Ji Ke, how can he not see through Bai Chen's mind, so when Bai Chen revealed With a sluggish expression, he also gave a sound of comfort.
When mentioning Gu Hong, Shu Kexin's face darkened, and she said with some disgust: "What kind of pills can that stupid woman make, she is nothing more than a little bit of research on making some big tonic pills suitable for romantic places! "
"Hey~? Ke Xin, don't say these things in front of the students!" Tian Ji Ke gave her an angry look.
Unexpectedly, Shu Kexin and Gu Hong didn't deal with it either, Bai Chen and the others looked at each other with surprise.
"I'm not right! So many officials in the court secretly bought those elixirs from the alchemy hall, and that woman, Gu Hong, personally made the secret elixir for the master in the alchemy room. She only has money in her eyes, and After so many years of operation, I am afraid that the wealth in her hands is several times that of our entire academy!"
Shu Kexin talked more and more vigorously, she had an uncontrollable dislike for Gu Hong.
"You can't say that..." Tianjike was really speechless and comfortable with his fiery temper, so he couldn't help persuading: "Think about it, our college has such a strong fund, isn't it all from the operation of the alchemy hall? Refining that kind of elixir is not good, but she does not hesitate to bear the infamy for the academy. She can not only fill the academy's treasury, but also maintain a certain amount of friendship with the royal family. In fact, she has been doing it for the academy ..."
"Enough! I don't want to hear it!"
Shu Kexin was furious all of a sudden, the more Tianjike spoke for Gu Hong, the more angry she became, and there was no restraint at the moment, she pointed at Tianjike angrily and said: "Don't think that I don't know what past you have with her, if you didn't If she didn't confuse you with the Fascination Pill, how could there be..."
"Comfortable!"
Tianjike was finally furious, and it was the first time for such a gentle and gentle man to be furious.
Under his roar, mist gradually appeared in Shu Kexin's beautiful eyes, and she turned and left without having anything to say.
Seeing this posture, Bai Chen and others bowed their hands in embarrassment to Tianjike, then followed Shu Kexin obediently, and walked quickly towards the academy.
