After reading through the book, I was fascinated by the Quanxiu Xianjie

Chapter 225 The So-Called Alchemist
Huo Jiuheng looked at her and smiled, noncommittal.

Qian Siwu raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything else, just took it as a letter.

The two walked to the place on the address. It was a dilapidated residential area, and most of the people living here were old people.

Qian Siwu held up the note and checked the house number, and found Qiao Jian's yard.

"Is anyone there?" Qian Siwu shouted while knocking on the door.

No one answered.

"Hello? Is Qiao Jian here?" Qian Siwu continued to shout.

Still no one answered.

Qian Siwu stopped and looked at Huo Jiuheng, "Could it be that he went out? But the door was locked from the inside."

"...That's right." Huo Jiuheng shrugged, didn't she know why did she still ask?

"Is anyone there?" Qian Siwu knocked harder on the door.

Just when Qian Siwu lost his patience and wanted to kick the door in, there were footsteps inside.

"Who is it?" The voice sounded weak.

"We're looking for Qiao Jian." Qian Siwu quickly responded.

"What are you looking for with Qiao Jian?" The people in the room seemed to have reached the door, and his voice came clearly through the door.

"We heard that he is a very powerful alchemist, and we want to buy some potions from him." Qian Siwu flattered Qiao Jian, "Can you open the door for us? Trouble!"

"Hmph." The person inside was whimpering and couldn't hear what he was saying, but he opened the door anyway.

The door opened, revealing a scruffy middle-aged man behind him.

The moment Huo Jiuheng saw him, he took a step forward and protected Qian Siwu behind him.

Qian Siwu poked his head out from behind Huo Jiuheng, "Are you Qiao Jian?"

"It's me." Qiao Jian looked them up and down with his big eyes, "What kind of potion do you want to buy?"

"Oh, we heard that you would put potion on the barbecue, can we have a look at this potion?" Qian Siwu came out from behind Huo Jiuheng.

Qiao Jian gave her a surprised look, turned around and walked into the yard, "Come in."

Qian Siwu and Huo Jiuheng followed.

They followed into the yard, walked to the middle of the yard and saw that Qiao Jian didn't tell them to stop, so they followed into the house.

In addition to the normal tables and chairs in the room, there is a big pot and a shelf full of bottles and cans.

When Qian Siwu saw the cauldron, he suddenly felt that even if his potion could be used as seasoning, she didn't want to eat it.

It's not really possible to make magic potions in this world. These are all illusions. I don't know what Lingling used instead. Anyway, she dared not try it.

"Those potions are in the basement. I'll go down and get them. You sit down first." Qiao Jian said to them, then lifted the wooden board on the ground in front of the shelf, and went down.

Qian Siwu and Huo Jiuheng sat at the table and watched him go down.

After he went down, Qian Siwu walked over to look at the hole in the ground.

The basement is not deep, and the bottom can be seen at a glance. Qian Siwu moved to the side to change the angle, trying to see the scene inside.

But obviously she can't.

Unable to see what the basement looked like, Qian Siwu simply looked at the potions on the shelf.

These bottles and jars contained colorful potions, which reminded her of witches in fairy tales she read as a child.

Well, she did describe it to Lingling like this.

There is a wooden sign with the name on the bottom of each bottle of potion. Qian Siwu looked at it and thought it was very funny.

Lingling's imagination can't support her to create any interesting potions, the most outrageous thing she can think of is the sex-changing potion.

Qian Siwu lost interest and curiosity and came back to sit.

Sitting at the table, Huo Jiuheng could see the brand under the medicine bottle, and knew what those medicines were for.

"Are these really useful?" Huo Jiuheng pointed to the potion.

The elixir they usually use, the liquid medicine is rarely used, let alone this colorful potion.

"Theoretically, it is useful." Qian Siwu affirmed.

But it depends on what type of potion it is. A decent potion is usually made of water that has been transformed into a pill that has changed its color. She doesn't know what is made of an unscrupulous potion.

"Would you like to buy a bottle and try it?" Huo Jiuheng looked like he really wanted to try it.

Qian Siwu glanced at him, hesitated for a moment, looked at the potion on the shelf and said: "Then buy that strength potion."

Qian Siwu felt that this should be a safer potion.

Huo Jiuheng looked for the potion she mentioned, "OK."

While the two were talking, Qiao Jian came up from the basement with a small cloth bag hanging around his neck, and there were three bottles of medicine in it.

Qiao Jian climbed up, took off the small cloth bag and carried it over.

"This is the potion you want." Qiao Jian handed the small cloth bag to Qian Siwu.

Qian Siwu took it and took out the bottles to check the color.

Qian Siwu was speechless.

Not to mention anything else, just the dark brown liquid, either soy sauce or vinegar.

Although it is a bit unreasonable, it makes sense when you think about it.

Qian Siwu opened the bottle and smelled it, and was sure that the bottle was soy sauce.

Then according to this idea, the other bottle with a color like earth is not made of five-spice powder, right?

Qian Siwu opened the bottle and smelled it, the smell was a bit faint, but it was indeed the smell of cumin.

She didn't need to smell it to know that the remaining red bottle was chili water.

Qian Siwu took three bottles of potion and sighed, "Are there any ingredients for these?"

Qian Siwu pushed the cumin water and chili water out and looked at him.

Qiao Jian scratched his head, "I have to look for the raw materials."

With that said, Qiao Jian went down to the basement again.

Qian Siwu looked at his back and raised his eyebrows.

"What are these?" Huo Jiuheng asked, knocking on the bottle.

"Soy sauce, cumin and chilli."

"Oh." Huo Jiuheng smiled, "It's really interesting."

"It's really interesting." Qian Siwu sighed again.

Qiao Jian searched for raw materials for a long time but did not come up. They could hear him rummaging and rummaging below.

Qian Siwu was so bored, he couldn't help but walked to the entrance of the basement and asked, "Qiao Jian, if you can't find it, tell me where you got it."

"Ah? What did you say?" Qiao Jian's voice was mixed with echoes.

Qian Siwu looked at the shallow ground, wondering how deep or how wide the basement was dug.

"I said, where are the ingredients, did you find them?" Qian Siwu increased his voice and slowly shouted.

"Oh, ingredients, where... I forgot!"

"..."

"Don't worry, I'll find it soon." Qiao Jian's laughter was naive, and Qian Siwu suddenly felt very bad.

"Then when you look for ingredients, think about where you found them!"

Um?How do you feel around?
"Do you understand?" Qian Siwu asked quickly.

"What are you talking about? I can't hear you clearly!" Qiao Jian's voice got further away.

"..."

Not good, it feels like it's over.

　Today I ate Wafu Rice and Chicken Chop.

　　I had a nightmare this morning. I dreamed that I missed the train. I woke up suddenly and couldn't sleep again. It was terrible!
