After Shen Qiang argued with the woman for a few words, he had to agree to let Lin Xiaodong and others join the team.
"The road is not easy to walk, but we still have to bring two oil bottles with us. It's really..." Shen Qiang looked reluctant and walked away muttering.
But being able to join Xie Yan's team is a good thing for Lin Xiaodong and Qian Yu. After all, the terrain in the forest is complex and monsters are rampant. You never know when you will encounter a hungry one, which is more difficult than a human. Too much to deal with.
Lin Xiaodong thanked Xie Yan, who smiled broadly and said: "It doesn't matter, we are all people who have been harmed by Cao's village. We should take care of each other."
"So, you have also been attacked by people from Cao Village?"
Lin Xiaodong asked in surprise.
"That's right..." Lin Xiaodong raised his head and recalled something, and said: "A team like ours that goes into the forest to hunt for treasures sometimes fights monsters or collects some genius treasures, but what they fear most is that they will be coveted by others.
What Caojiazhai likes most is robbing teams like ours, so we all hate them. We will be happy if Caojiazhai is destroyed one day!"
Lin Xiaodong listened quietly and thought to himself.
It seems that there are many people who have grievances against Caojiazhai. If these people can be used well, it will be a great benefit to the attack on Caojiazhai.
Seeing that he was deep in thought, Xie Yan asked, "Why did you get into trouble with Cao Jiazhai again?"
"Oh, I killed Cao Yu, and Cao Qingqing came out personally to take me back."
Xie Yan was obviously stunned for a moment, then laughed again, cupped his hands and said, "Why does your name sound so familiar to me? So you are the Lin Xiaodong who killed Cao Yu?
You are such a good man, I admire you!"
"That's not the case... I just think Cao Yu is such a bastard. If I don't kill him, I don't know how many more people will be harmed."
"So you will be arrested this time because Cao Qingqing used cartilage powder on you?"
"That's right, we were attacked in the forest and were poisoned by her Cartilage Powder in a hurry. The effect of the drug has not worn off yet..." Xie Yan sighed and said, "Caojiazhai's Cartilage Powder was handed down from their ancestors. This recipe contains an extra type of mucus from the Golden Thread Toad, which greatly increases its effectiveness. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to prevent when used. I don’t know how many people have fallen into this trap over the years.”
"Golden toad slime?"
Lin Xiaodong caught this word and asked quickly.
Xie Yan glanced at him and said, "You may not come here often, so you don't know. The golden toad is a unique species here. The mucus it secretes has a strong paralyzing effect and can cause weakness for a long time. ."
"Oh..." Lin Xiaodong nodded.
No wonder Caojiazhai's Cartilage Powder is so terrifying. He only inhaled a trace amount, but the effect continues to this day. It turns out that a special poison was used, so the effect was greatly enhanced.
According to Xie Yan, if the golden toad is really a specialty of this place, then the antidote to the golden toad's poison should be here.
After thinking clearly, he immediately asked: "If there are poisons here, there will probably be accompanying detoxification substances. Do you know this information?"
Xie Yan paused, looked at him warily, and asked, "Do you still understand this?"
"Just a little understanding. I know something about alchemy."
Xie Yan seemed to be very entangled for a while, and finally seemed to have decided on something, and then asked: "How do you know exactly."
Lin Xiaodong replied calmly: "The elixirs I have refined are rarely unsuccessful, and the quality is much better than that of ordinary alchemists."
After hearing this, Xie Yan glanced at him in shock. Do you still understand this?
Then he fell into deep thought. If what Lin Xiaodong said was true, it meant that he didn't just "know a little" about alchemy. He probably already had some attainments.
Unexpectedly, this person was not only capable of killing Cao Yu, but he also knew the art of alchemy?
You must know that alchemists are transcendent existences here. It is not easy for ordinary people to meet one in their lifetime, and powerful alchemists are even rarer.
Could it be that I was so lucky that I met an alchemist just by walking out?
"If you are an alchemist, can you show us your skills?"
"oh?"
The reason why the other party wants him to show off his ability so urgently must be because he has some urgent need for an alchemist. If there is a chance, he can exchange some trust with his alchemy ability.
"It's just that I don't have an alchemy furnace with me right now..." When they were taken to the prison, the storage rings on their bodies had been taken away by the people in Caojiazhai. Where can they find an alchemy furnace now?
"This is simple."
Xie Yan blinked at him and shouted: "Wan Ning!"
"exist!"
A pretty sweet-looking girl walked out of the team, came to them, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Give him the alchemy furnace you are carrying."
Wan Ning glanced at Lin Xiaodong, pouted, and playfully refused: "Looking at him like this, can he make elixirs?"
Xie Yan seemed to have a good relationship with her and immediately raised his foot as if to kick her butt. Wan Ning was startled and quickly found a copper-colored alchemy furnace from his body and threw it directly to Lin Xiaodong.
"Okay, okay, I'll give it to you!"
After saying that, Wan Ning jumped back to the team.
Lin Xiaodong looked at the alchemy furnace in his hand. Although the quality of this alchemy furnace was not very good, it was considered generous in materials and exquisite in workmanship. It must have cost a lot of money when buying it.
Generally speaking, alchemists will prepare an alchemy furnace. Why do they buy this?
It was definitely not for nothing that they carried such a thing with them. Lin Xiaodong looked at Xie Yan in confusion, but the latter smiled mysteriously and just said: "How about it, can this alchemy furnace be used?"
"It can definitely be used, but what are you doing with this thing when you go out hunting for treasures..." "Since it can be used, then you should try it first. If the elixir you made is really good, I will use it again."
I’ll tell you everything.”
Hearing that Lin Xiaodong was going to make elixirs, the entire team paused and gathered around him.
The people present were all martial arts practitioners, and they must have taken elixirs before, but it was their first time to watch an alchemist refining elixirs with their own eyes, so they were all a little curious and excited.
Only Shen Qiang deliberately stood far away, looking at Lin Xiaodong with an expression full of disdain.
"Hey, isn't it just alchemy? The difference between a good alchemist and a bad alchemist is as big as heaven and earth... But don't wait until the elixir is not refined, but it blows up our alchemy furnace."
While he was talking coldly, Shen Qiang was slapped on the back of the head by someone who didn't know who, and he had to shut his mouth.
