Lu An was stunned, and then his eyes narrowed. He finally understood why the people from the Alchemy Pavilion had suddenly come to find him.
The Constitution-Enhancing Pill. It was because he had taken out the Constitution-Enhancing Pill.
Elder Gao had said very clearly that only two people in the entire Meteor Trail City could make the Constitution-Enhancing Pill. Moreover, all the sales of the Constitution-Enhancing Pill were recorded. If that was the case, then he didn't even know how to lie.
For a moment, Lu An didn't know how to answer, so he simply didn't say anything and fell silent.
When Elder Gao saw that the young Lu An had actually fallen silent, he couldn't help but be stunned. Then, he laughed and said, "Kid, don't think that I can't find out where you got the Constitution-Enhancing Pill just because you don't say anything. If I'm not wrong, there must be a hidden expert helping you, right?! "
Hearing Elder Gao's increasingly curious and excited voice, Lu An couldn't help but be stunned. He raised his head and looked at Elder Gao.
"I knew it. No matter how talented a person is, how can he go from knowing nothing to being able to defeat Wang Zhenggang in just half a month?" Seeing that Lu An was stunned, Elder Gao was satisfied. He laughed and said, "Someone must be teaching you behind your back and constantly feeding you Constitution-Enhancing Pills. This Constitution-Enhancing Pill was also refined by him, right? "
Lu An looked at Elder Gao, who was getting more and more excited. He took a deep breath and nodded. "Yes, I really couldn't hide it from Elder Gao."
"Haha! You're still far from being able to hide it from me! " Elder Gao laughed and said, "And I've checked. You're not from Meteor Trail City. You must have come with your master. Your master is also an expert. I want to pay him a visit. How about it? "
"Expert?" Lu An was stunned and frowned slightly.
"Kid, you still want to hide it from me?" When Elder Gao saw Lu An's expression, as if his secret had been discovered, he laughed even more proudly and said loudly, "The people in the Meteor Trail City told me that your master asked you to buy materials, including Amu Wata. Is that right?"
Lu An frowned and said, "Yes, what's the problem?"
"You just saw me refine this Constitution-Enhancing Pill. Did you use Oki Wata?" Elder Gao raised his eyebrows and asked again.
"No." Lu An thought carefully and said.
"That's right!" Elder Gao forcefully nodded and said, "Oki Wata is the original refining vessel of the Constitution Consolidating Pill. He can act as an assistant to increase the efficacy of the pill to a higher level. However, for a pharmacist, the difficulty of operating Iki Wata was too high. Therefore, most people would replace Iki Wata with a pill furnace to increase the success rate. Your master still chose Iki Wata, which means that he has absolute confidence in his technique! "
"…"
Lu An frowned. Indeed, the person in the black fog did not tell him that Oki Wata could be replaced with an alchemy furnace. If he had known earlier that Oki Wata could be replaced with an alchemy furnace, he would not have been so worried about failure.
"But I heard that different types of pills require different containers." Lu An was interested in alchemy, so he couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that you can use a pill furnace as a substitute?"
"You can say that." Elder Gao nodded and said, "All kinds of pills can be refined in an alchemy furnace. However, some pills are too violent to refine, so alchemy furnaces are also divided into good and bad ones. However, for those pharmacists who have absolute requirements for the efficacy of the pills, they will still stick to the original container. "
Lu An nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that his understanding of alchemy was still too little. He didn't even know this kind of basic knowledge. However, for some reason, Lu An didn't feel the joy of discovering a new continent. Instead, he wanted to stick to the original container.
If you want to do something, you have to do it to the best of your ability. This was a sentence that the person in the black fog often said.
"How about it?" Elder Gao looked at Lu An's thoughtful expression and really lost his patience. He asked loudly, "Let your master come to Starfire Academy, or I'll personally visit him. How about it?"
Lu An was stunned and looked at Elder Gao. However, he shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Elder Gao. Master said that he won't see any guests. I can't do anything about it."
Elder Gao's face suddenly turned gloomy. He strode in front of Lu An and said, "Kid, don't play dumb with me. Do you think it's troublesome and you don't want to talk to him?"
"It's really not …" Lu An smiled bitterly. He felt even more helpless in his heart. Even if he wanted to meet him, Elder Gao couldn't do it!
"Then what is it?" Elder Gao was a little angry and said loudly, "Are you looking down on me?"
"No …" Lu An didn't know what to say. He could only say, "My master has a weird personality. If I talk about this, he'll definitely skin me alive."
"…"
Elder Gao stared seriously into Lu An's eyes, as if he wanted to see if Lu An was lying. Lu An didn't feel guilty at all as he stared back at her. It was too easy to lie.
"That's enough!" Elder Gao waved his hand and said angrily, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have had anything to say to you. It's useless to talk to you. You can go now!"
Lu An breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave. However, just as he was about to leave, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"By the way, Liu Yi from the Starfire Trade Union wants you to go!" Elder Gao said loudly.
Lu An paused and looked back at Elder Gao with some confusion. He asked, "Who is that?"
"A woman who's not simple!" Elder Gao frowned as if he had said a name that he was very respectful of.
"Oh." Lu An frowned and said, "Thank you, Elder Gao."
After that, Lu An turned to push open the door and leave.
"I advise you to go!" Elder Gao's voice sounded again. This time, there was no joking in his voice. It was full of seriousness. "That woman is not a nobody. You can't offend her!"
Lu An frowned, nodded, and strode away.
Elder Gao looked at the young man's disappearing figure for a long time. Even after the door was closed, he still didn't move.
"It's this kid?" Elder Gao frowned. He swept away his casual attitude and analyzed seriously, "It doesn't look like it. This kid doesn't even know what a furnace is. How can he refine pills?"
If Elder Gao knew that not only did Lu An not know, but even the person who taught Lu An didn't know what a furnace was, what kind of expression would he have?

In Starfire City.
The bustling day had just begun, and the streets were full of people. Lu An was wearing the clothes that Fu Yu gave him yesterday. He walked on the street like a young master walking alone. However, Lu An's temperament was very different from that of a young master. People couldn't help but take a second look.
Antisocial.
It was a kind of antisocial that didn't fit in with the clothes.
Because he had been to the Starfire Trade Union once, Lu An didn't have to look for it again. This time, he walked especially fast. When he stood outside the Starfire Trade Union's headquarters and looked at the magnificent building again, he couldn't help but frown.
He really didn't want to come, but he still came.
He had already offended many people, including the young master of the Starfire Trade Union, Zhou Chengkun. The Starfire Trade Union was a colossus in Starfire City. Aside from the City Lord's Mansion, no one dared to offend them. Lu An knew that not only did he offend them, but they would also seek revenge.
Liu Yi. Although he didn't know this woman's name, he knew that it was most likely because of Zhou Chengkun.
Sooner or later, there would be an explanation for this matter. He was the one who beat up Zhou Chengkun. Naturally, he had to stand up and take the knife from the Starfire Trade Union. Otherwise, he would implicate others.
Taking a deep breath, Lu An stood outside the door and thought about how to get the Starfire Trade Union to let him go. He also thought about what he could take out to impress them. However, after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of anything. Right now, he was too weak. He didn't have any capital to negotiate with the Starfire Trade Union.
Since he had thought it through, Lu An didn't back down. He once again looked up at the Starfire Trade Union's huge plaque. Step by step, he walked up the stairs.
After a few steps, Lu An entered the lobby on the first floor of the Starfire Trade Union. The lobby was huge, and there were many people. Everyone was lined up in an orderly manner. No matter how luxurious their clothes were, no one dared to be presumptuous here.
Lu An looked around and found a staff member who was walking around. He walked up to her and said politely, "Hello."
"Hello." The woman stopped and smiled at Lu An. She then said, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Your Chamber of Commerce has a person called Liu Yi. She asked me to look for her." Lu An said.
The woman's face suddenly changed. She looked at the polite young master in front of her again. After looking at him over and over again, she asked, "Are you Lu An?"
"Yes." Lu An nodded.
The woman couldn't help but look at Lu An. She then took a deep breath and said, "Supervisor Liu's office is on the fourth floor. I'll take you up."
Lu An smiled and said softly, "Thank you."
