In the days after Chi Yunzhi woke up, Lu Yunchu came to visit Chi Yunzhi almost every day, chatting with Chi Yunzhi for an hour or two before leaving. Later, for some reason, no one was seen for several days, so he waited for a few days to prepare. After leaving, Chi Yunzhi had no choice but to ask his maid Lu Yunchu where she was and said goodbye in person.

Following the direction pointed by the maid, Chi Yunzhi walked for a while and saw a grand-looking building from a distance. The door of the building was wide open. Before he got closer, Chi Yunzhi heard the sound coming from inside. Lu Yunchu's angry voice came out.

"What does this Dan Pavilion mean? Why should we give up our Hu family's share this year to Linyang Sect?!"

"My father has only passed away two years ago, but he treats our Hu family so slowly. Has he forgotten how hard my father worked for the Dan Pavilion in the first half of his life? Our Hu family has never stopped offering the Qingyin Sun Fruit for more than ten years. Did you feed the dog?!”

Qingyin Yangguo? !

Chi Yunzhi's footsteps suddenly stopped.

A figure walked out of the building angrily and bumped into Chi Yunzhi who was parked not far in front of the building.

Seeing Chi Yunzhi, the anger on the figure owner's body visibly stagnated, and then asked with some surprise: "Miss Chi, are you looking for me?"

Looking at Lu Yunchu's face in front of him, Chi Yunzhi turned his eyes slightly, nodded, and said: "Young Master Lu looks so angry, but what happened?"

Lu Yunchu frowned, and his anger suddenly rose again. He shook his head irritably and said, "It's a long story. Oh, it really pisses me off. Let's talk as we walk."

Lu Yunchu is a person who likes to chat. He can't hide things in his heart. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sat in front of Chi Yunzhi's bed for an hour or two every day during the days when Chi Yunzhi just woke up from his injury. Now, now There is anger in my heart, and naturally I will not vent my anger.

From Lu Yunchu's complaints, Chi Yunzhi gradually understood the cause and course of what happened today.

The Zhuzi Ming Empire can be called a medicinal material empire. Because of its special geographical location, it produces many medicinal materials that other empires do not have. Therefore, many medicinal materials from many other empires also come from the Zhuzi Ming Empire. In order to better Using the resources of the country, the Zhuziming Empire is also constantly cultivating alchemists, so it has the Royal Alchemy Pavilion. Many alchemy families in the Zhuziming Empire have prospered with the Alchemy Pavilion, including the Lu family. .

By relying on the Royal Dan Pavilion, you can enjoy the royal salary and supreme glory, and you can also obtain some top-quality medicinal materials monopolized by the royal family that are difficult for ordinary people to obtain. However, if you want to become a medicine refining family with the support of the Royal Dan Pavilion, you also need conditions. There must be at least three second-grade alchemy masters or one first-grade alchemy master in the family serving in the Alchemy Pavilion, and every year at least three children in the family must pass the Alchemist Qualification Assessment of the Royal Alchemy Pavilion.

Most of the alchemy families try their best to ensure that there are three or four second-grade alchemists in the family to serve in the royal alchemy pavilion, and the Lu family does the same. However, generation after generation, and hundreds of years later, more and more people The family of alchemy refining declined and was replaced by a new family. Although the Lu family tried hard to persevere, the talent of alchemy refining among the children in the family was not as good as each generation. In the end, only two second-grade alchemy refining masters, the old man of the Lu family and Lu Yunchu's father, were left.

Dange Nian thought about the Lu family's hundreds of years of contribution to the Dange, giving the Lu family two years. However, it was easier to recruit talented alchemist disciples from the outside world, but it was necessary to recruit a ready-made alchemist disciple. It is really difficult to become a second-grade alchemist master, and it is even more impossible to train an alchemist to the level of a master alchemist within two years.

He thought it was the end of the road, but just when the Lu family was about to be expelled from the Alchemy Pavilion, Lu Yunchu's father accidentally discovered a volume of first-class medicine recipes, successfully refined high-level superior elixirs, and was promoted to a first-class alchemy master. Only then did he stabilize his life. The name of the Lu family, a century-old medicine refining family.

Lu Yunchu's father is an alchemist who regards studying the art of refining medicine as his destiny. Ever since he discovered the first-grade medicine prescription, he has been out of control. He often retreats to develop new medicine prescriptions and refine elixirs, and therefore contributes a lot to the Dan Pavilion. , In the past few decades, the Lu family has almost become the leader of all medicine refining families.Later, a Qingyin Sun Fruit grew in the medicine garden at the back of the Lu family. Logically speaking, this thing was the private property of the Lu family and did not need to be offered to the Dan Pavilion. However, Lu Yunchu's father did not hide his secrets. , believed that its real use could only be achieved if it was offered to the Dan Pavilion, so the Lu family secretly offered the Qingyin Yang Fruit to the Dan Pavilion for more than ten years.

Qingyin Taiyang Fruit, which bears once a year, can bear ten fruits at a time. Taking the fruit can get rid of distracting thoughts and gather the energy and spirit. It can be said that it is specially made for alchemists. Taking one when refining medicine can It greatly improves the success rate of refining elixirs. If added to medicine, it can also improve the grade and quality of the elixir. Therefore, this item is very attractive to alchemists.

I thought that with Lu Yunchu's father and the Lu family's contribution to the Dan Pavilion, the Lu family would be prosperous for a hundred years, but I never thought that Lu Yunchu's father would die of overwork during a retreat two years ago.

"This is something no one expected." Lu Yunchu said with a lonely look.

"My father was obsessed with researching new prescriptions and refining medicines, and often stayed in seclusion for a month or two. So that time he was in seclusion for more than two months, and no one became suspicious. By the time he realized something was wrong, my father had already left. It’s been nearly ten days.”

"The death of my father is an extremely heavy blow to the Lu family. Similarly, the loss of a first-grade alchemy master is also a great loss to the Dan Pavilion."

"Perhaps out of gratitude for the contribution my father has made to Dan Pavilion over the years, or perhaps out of consideration for the fact that even after my father left, the Lu family still secretly offered the Qingyin Sun Fruit. Dan Pavilion has never proposed to use it in the past two years. Regarding the removal of the Lu family, other medicine refining families have never made things difficult for the Lu family."

"So it seems that the Royal Dan Pavilion and other alchemy families have no ill intentions towards the Lu family, so why is it happening today?" Chi Yunzhi asked.

Lu Yunchu suddenly sneered and said through gritted teeth, "It's Linyang Sect!"

Chi Yunzhi remembered that at the recruitment meeting after the various college competitions, Lu Yunchu seemed to have refused to accept the recruitment of Linyang Sect.

"Is it because of your refusal that day that the Linyang Sect caused trouble for the Lu family?"

Lu Yunchu shook his head, "Not entirely."

"At first, no one else except the Lu family and Dan Pavilion knew about the fact that the Lu family offered the Qingyin Sun Fruit every year. They were afraid that the temptation of the Qingyin Sun Fruit would be too great. If other families knew about it, it would cause unnecessary trouble. But who would I know that a few months before the start of the National Academy Competition, the Linyang Sect knew about this for some reason. In order to obtain the Qingyin Sun Fruit, the Linyang Sect came to the Lu family several times to lobby but failed, and then they tried to recruit me at the recruitment meeting. I just didn’t expect that I would refuse so shamelessly, so I became completely angry.”

"So what agreement did Linyang Sect reach with Dange? But if there was Qingyin Sun Fruit, Dange wouldn't give up on the Lu family so easily, right?" Chi Yunzhi said.

"Logically speaking, it is indeed the case." Lu Yunchu said and sighed softly, "But some accidents happened during this period. The Lu family has no Qingyin Sun Fruit to offer to the Dan Pavilion..."

No more Qingyin Yangguo? !
Hearing this, Chi Yunzhi's heart suddenly tightened, "Why is this?"
