The system was a little wary of Yan Yinqiu's confident attitude. From a rational point of view, it didn't think this weird mixture could be sold, but Yan Yinqiu was too sure, which actually made it start to doubt itself.
However, it turned out that its precautions were correct.
The mixture made by Yan Yinqiu caused a lot of commotion in the auction house because of its strange shape and high price. Just when everyone thought that this thing could not be sold, the Cui family gave up the high-grade elixir and sold it at a high price. Take it away.
At first, there was a lot of discussion in Canglan City, and some of them were ridiculing that the Cui family was stupid and had too much money and did not know the treasures.
But soon they stopped laughing.
Because Cui Han, who had been trapped in the qi training period for several years, actually successfully built the foundation on the second day after taking the medicine. The momentum was so great that people in the whole city wanted to know about it.
[Cui Han, the scapegoat, actually succeeded in building a foundation? 】
The system was greatly shocked and said in disbelief: [What on earth did you feed him? Could that ball of paste really be some kind of elixir? 】
Compared with the rare and numerous monsters in the system, Yan Yinqiu looked calm and said calmly: "They all said that as long as the elixir is effective, it doesn't matter what it looks like."
Ordinary alchemy cultivators extract and refine various herbs into elixirs, striving to bring out the maximum medicinal properties of the herbs, but Yan Yinqiu is different. What she holds in her hands is the best treasure of heaven and earth. There is no need for secondary processing and tempering at all.
Ordinary people may not be able to see what the secret is, but as a family of medicine cultivators, it is impossible for the Cui family to not know the power of that mixture.
Yan Yinqiu slowly played with the cluster of autumn chrysanthemums on the porch. The pale yellow petals were stretching against the autumn frost and dew, and they were as eye-catching as bright golden feathers in the sunlight.
Several small snakes crawled out along the wall silently. After a while, a few painful groans came from the base of the wall, and then gradually fell into silence.
"It's quite a waste of money to find so many people to monitor me."
Yan Yinqiu chuckled and said with great interest: "The next step will all depend on their performance."
————
When the news of Cui Han's foundation building reached the Lin family, Lin Xiyuan was having a headache teaching Lin Mo and Lin Weiwei.
Among the younger generations of the Lin family, only Lin Yilang can barely see through it. Lin Mo and Lin Weiwei, brother and sister, are just two pieces of dead wood. Others can make some progress after some teaching, but they will just look like fools. Same as Abba Abba.
Lin Xiyuan himself didn't want to take on this hard work, but because he wanted the Lin family to help him, he had to lose some benefits, so in the end he could only accept these two people with pinched noses.
"Don't be lazy. Do you remember all the tricks I showed you yesterday?"
Lin Xiyuan suppressed his dissatisfaction and said coldly: "You are not as talented as others, so you should practice more diligently to make up for it."
"Tiantian knows what's the use of asking us to practice hard. Cui Han has been doing nothing all day long but he has succeeded in building the foundation..."
Lin Weiwei was called up to practice early in the morning. She was feeling sleepy at the moment, so she couldn't help but muttered something in a low voice.
"Wei Wei, what did you just say?"
Lin Xiyuan's ear was very good and he keenly captured the key words in Lin Weiwei's words. He looked over with sharp eyes and asked, "You said Cui Han succeeded in building the foundation?"
Lin Weiwei didn't expect that her complaints would be heard by Lin Xiyuan, and she was immediately startled. Even her head, which was so sleepy at first, was frightened to wake up. She stammered and explained: "I also woke up this morning. I heard people in the house talking about it, saying that Cui Han successfully built the foundation a few days ago. Cousin, don’t get me wrong, I have no other intentions..."
But when Lin Xiyuan heard this, his brows furrowed more and more tightly, but his expression did not soften at all.
Although he had never had direct contact with Cui Han, he had paid attention to this person when he played against Cui Qin that day.
They are also members of the Cui family, but compared to Cui Qin and Cui Run, Cui Han's talent and strength are only average, and no one in ten or eight years can reach the threshold of foundation building.
Thinking about it from another direction, if Cui Han was really a genius, then the Cui family had already trained him vigorously, so why would they let him go out and do whatever he wanted?
The more Lin Xiyuan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He couldn't help but mutter to himself: "Canglan City is backed by Cangyun Fairy Mountain. Could it be that Cui Han has had some big opportunities recently..."
"Wherever there is any big opportunity, it's just piled on with medicine."
A hoarse voice suddenly came. Lin Xiyuan looked back and saw the pale Lin Yilang walking slowly towards this side. He had to slow down for a while after taking two steps. He looked as weak as if he had just passed away. , only a pair of eyes are extremely dark.
Lin Yilang turned his eyes around and said lightly: "I heard that my cousin is here to teach older brothers and younger sisters, so I thought I would join in the fun, so I won't disturb my cousin, right?"
"Of course not. Your injury hasn't healed yet. Come over here and sit down and rest for a while."
Lin Xiyuan's attitude towards Lin Yilang was quite warm. Seeing that Lin Yilang was in good spirits, he hurriedly said: "Cousin Yilang, you just said that Cui Han's foundation was built with medicine, but is it because you used the Cui family's secret medicine? "
Although the Cui family is not a large sect of the Xian family, they have lived in Canglan City for a long time and have a large number of talented people. It is impossible to guarantee that there really is some secret medicine that is not spread to the outside world.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiyuan couldn't help but his eyes lit up. Even Lin Mo and Lin Weiwei, who were silent next to them, pricked up their ears for fear of missing important information.
"The Cui family bought a box of elixir at the auction house a few days ago. I heard that Cui Han had such a good fortune after eating this."
Lin Yilang looked a little gloomy and said coldly: "I asked someone to go to the auction house to inquire. The auction house said that there is only one box of elixir and there is no more."
"Do you know the true identity of the drug seller?"
"I don't know, it was said to be sent by an unnamed medicine cultivator."
Lin Xiyuan couldn't help but feel a trace of disappointment on his face, but after seeing Lin Mo and Lin Weiwei, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.
He coughed quietly and said with pretense of regret: "It's such a pity. This medicine seems to be very useful in building foundations. If you get it..."
Halfway through the words, he closed his mouth again, sighed softly, and said helplessly: "That's all, since there is no such thing, let's practice hard."
"Cousin, are you telling the truth?"
Lin Mo couldn't wait to get up and said nervously: "If I have that medicine, can I also practice?"
Lin Xiyuan nodded, calmly added another bait, and replied with a smile: "It's natural. My cousin sees your hard work. Cui Han and other dudes can build a foundation. What's more, Not to mention you."
"Then why don't we go to the auction house and ask again, or find out the origin of the medicine cultivator."
No one responded to Lin Mo's words. He quickly pulled Lin Weiwei and signaled: "Weiwei, what do you think?"
"...Brother is right."
Lin Weiwei vaguely felt that this matter was not that simple, but Lin Mo had said so, and she could not object. She could only turn to look at Lin Xiyuan aside, and said: "Cousin, we should not go over here. have a look?"
"This is a good idea..."
Lin Xiyuan's face looked a little embarrassed to the naked eye. He hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "It's just that I don't know anyone well in Canglan City, and I can't reveal my identity rashly. I'm afraid I won't be able to help."
Canglan City is no different from other places, with many immortal cultivators coming and going. Lin Xiyuan originally left the sect privately. If someone discovers this, the consequences will be disastrous.
In addition, he is cautious by nature. Even if he knows about some magical medicine, he still wants to let cannon fodder like Lin Mo try it first. He only wants to use the least effort to get the maximum benefit. If that medicine cultivator is really reliable, From now on, he will ask Lin Mo to introduce him. If it is unreliable, why should he wade into this muddy water.
"What about second brother? You often walk around outside. There are always people you know in the auction house, right?"
Lin Mo turned around and put his hope on Lin Yilang, and directly made it clear: "I heard that you and President Xu of the city chamber of commerce are old acquaintances. Now that Weiwei and I are in trouble, you won't be so petty. If you’re busy, you won’t help, right?”
Lin Yilang's face froze when he heard this, but he couldn't break his face directly, so he could only bite the bullet and agreed.
It is true that he has a friendship with President Xu of the Chamber of Commerce. After all, he has not been idle this year. In order to woo the nobles in the city, he has spent all his savings just giving gifts.
Originally, he just wanted to ask Lin Xiyuan for some inside information, but he was slapped with plaster by two idiots, Lin Mo and Lin Weiwei, who were trying to rush him to the shelves. He was forced to go to the auction house even though he was sick, and he was so angry that he felt dizzy. .
It's a pity that Lin Yilang was too tenacious and managed to hold on without fainting in the end. He could only lead Lin Mo and his sister to the auction house with sad faces.
When the people who came to receive him saw him, they immediately came up to him with a smile on their faces and said attentively: "Master Lin is here. Are you here to participate in the auction today?"
"No, I have something to ask President Xu. I heard that the housekeeper of Xu Mansion said that he came to the auction house today."
"Looking for President Xu?"
The man was stunned for a moment, touched his nose with some embarrassment, and explained: "What a coincidence. President Xu is currently discussing matters with our young master's family. I probably don't have time to see you now. Why don't you wait here for a while?"
"Young master?"
Lin Yilang seemed a little unresponsive, and asked doubtfully: "When did the auction house have a young master?"
"Now there is."
There was a chuckle, and the smiling girl slowly walked down the stairs. The exquisitely embroidered fan in her hand blocked her beautiful face, revealing only a pair of cunning and smart eyes.
Lin Yilang raised his eyes and looked over. When his eyes came into contact with the figure, his pupils suddenly shrank for a moment, and even the smile on his face froze, and he blurted out a curse word.
"Damn it, why are you here?"
"This young master, do you know me?"
The girl put down the round fan that was covering her face and said with a smile: "I forgot to introduce myself. I am Su Fu, the young owner of the auction house. This is the first time we meet. Please take care of me."
