The town Lin Long was in was called Chu Xi Town. It was a town under Black Wind City.
The market in Chu Xi Town was very big. Most of the shops were run by the big families in the town. Lin Long's target was a luxuriously decorated courtyard in the center of the market.
The owner of this courtyard was the only alchemist in Chu Xi Town, Zuo Han.
After half an hour, Lin Long and the other two arrived at the courtyard's red lacquered gate.
When the guard at the gate saw Zhang Zhi, he quickly put on a smile and said, "Guard Zhang, why are you here today?"
"I'm here to see Medicine Master Zuo," Zhang Zhi said lightly.
"Who are these two?" the guard asked after looking at Linlong and Little Butterfly.
"People from the Lin family."
"Guard Zhang, come with me …" With that, the guard led Lin Long and the other two in. As they walked, he said, "Medicine Master Zuo is busy right now. You can have some tea and wait."
"We still have to wait?" Zhang Zhi was a little displeased when he heard the guard's words.
With his relationship with Zuo Han, even if Zuo Han was doing an important experiment, he could go and see her directly, so this kind of words naturally made him unhappy.
"It's like this. Today, Medicine Master Jian from Black Wind City came over and is now in the alchemy room with Medicine Master Zuo," the guard said quickly.
"Medicine Master Jian?" Hearing this, not only was Zhang Zhi surprised, but even Xiao Die's mouth was wide open.
They were no strangers to Medicine Master Jian because he was the most powerful alchemist in Black Wind City. It could be said that even the City Lord was very respectful to him.
Naturally, they were a little surprised that such a person had come to their town.
"Yes, it's Medicine Master Jian," the guard replied.
After a moment of silence, Guard Zhang said, "Since Medicine Master Jian is here, let's wait."
With Guard Zhang's ability and status, he naturally did not dare to be rash with Medicine Master Jian.
Unexpectedly, a voice came out at this time. "Hmph, is it that old man Jian? Since he's here, then I have to go over."
It was Lin Long who spoke.
Hearing this, the guard was really embarrassed. He did not know what gave this young man the courage to even dare to address him like this.
Although Medicine Master Jian was old, he was a highly respected alchemist. Who would dare to call such a person an old man?
He believed that if Medicine Master Jian's people heard this, the young man would be seriously injured, if not dead.
Not only the guard, Zhang Zhi also broke out in a cold sweat.
Xiao Die, on the other hand, grabbed her Young Master's arm and whispered nervously, "Young Master, you can't say such things."
Linlong didn't seem to realize it at all. Instead, he continued, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and bring us over."
The guard immediately put on a long face and said, "Young Master, Apothecary Zuo has repeatedly warned us not to disturb them, otherwise …"
However, before he could finish speaking, Linlong had already walked out, and he was heading towards the medicine refining room.
Of course, Linlong had never been here before, but the slight medicinal fragrance in the air already told him where the medicine refinement room was.
Seeing this situation, the guard hurriedly turned his gaze to Zhang Zhi, hoping that Zhang Zhi would be able to stop this arrogant youth. However, he did not expect that Zhang Zhi would also have a helpless expression on his face.
To be honest, if it wasn't for Zhang Zhi, he would definitely have made a move. Of course, if it wasn't for Zhang Zhi, he wouldn't have let them enter the courtyard.
"Let's follow them," Zhang Zhi said helplessly.
He had seen too much of Linlong's lawlessness over the past few days. He was really curious as to how Linlong would get by later. However, when he thought of Apothecary Jian, he felt a wave of worry. After all, Apothecary Jian was an existence that he couldn't surpass.
Hearing Zhang Zhi say this, the guard could only follow behind Zhang Zhi helplessly. He had already made up his mind to stay far away from Zhang Zhi and the others later. After all, Apothecary Jian's entourage wasn't just for show.
After passing through a corridor and a flowerbed, Linlong arrived in front of a few rooms. Judging from the layout of the rooms and the waves of medicinal fragrance coming from the largest room in the middle, this was the medicine refining room.
The reason why Linlong did not continue forward was because he had been stopped by someone. Blocking his way were two burly men who were seven feet tall and dressed in black attire.
The two burly men had grave expressions on their faces. To be honest, if they hadn't seen the somewhat frightened guard not far behind Linlong, they would have already attacked Linlong.
"Zhang Zhi, didn't we say not to disturb? What's going on?" One of them shouted at the guard.
The guard pointed at Linlong and the others helplessly. "Brothers, they …"
Before he could finish, Zhang Zhi had already stepped forward with a smile. "Brothers, we're from the Lin family in town. We've heard of Apothecary Jian's reputation, so we specially wanted to pay a visit."
"What Lin family? This isn't a place where you can just barge in. Hurry up and go back, or else …" The burly man who had spoken said with a frown.
At this moment, Xiao Die stepped forward and took out two small embroidered pouches. She handed them to the two men. "Brothers, this is the embroidered pouch that my young master asked me to wrap …"
Although Xiao Die was young, she was quite pretty. Moreover, she had a very sweet smile, so the two men couldn't bring themselves to do such a thing. They immediately reached out and took the embroidered pouch.
Of course, the embroidered pouch wasn't something that Linlong had asked Xiao Die to prepare. Instead, the clever Xiao Die had prepared it herself before she left.
Although Xiao Die was young, she had stayed in the Lin family for a long time. Naturally, she knew the ways of the world.
After receiving the embroidered pouch and squeezing it, the two men revealed a look of satisfaction. The one who had spoken earlier said, "How about this? Wait outside. Once Apothecary Jian and the others are done …"
Before he could finish speaking, the other man's expression suddenly changed. He turned around abruptly and saw the young man who had clearly been standing beside him a moment ago standing not too far away.
At the same time, the one who had spoken earlier also noticed the situation.
Damn it, why did this kid walk over without saying a word? It would be disastrous if he alarmed Apothecary Jian. The two men's expressions darkened when they recalled that someone had made the same mistake in the past. Not only was that person fired, but his cultivation was also crippled.
"Little fellow, stop right there!"
The two of them hurriedly rushed towards Linlong. However, they didn't expect that the young man didn't stop despite their scolding.
What made them even more dumbfounded was that the moment the young man reached the door of the medicine refinement room, not only did he not stop, but he even lifted his leg and kicked the door.
It's over, it's all over. We're going to die because of this brat! The two of them were immediately filled with despair.
As for Zhang Zhi and the others, they were completely dumbfounded. Zhang Zhi simply didn't expect Linlong to be so lawless. One must know that Apothecary Jian wasn't an ordinary person.
Although Apothecary Jian himself wasn't strong, with his ability to concoct medicine, he could make powerful Martial Masters and even Martial Lords sell their lives for him with a wave of his hand.
How could they afford to offend someone like that?
