The Soul Burial City at the foot of the mountain was bustling with activity.
In an inn, Xiao Qinghe picked up his wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
Opposite him was a middle-aged man with a beard.
He is none other than the governor of Yunzhong County—Chu Yuan!
"Don't worry, I've already sent the information, so for your sake and mine, there shouldn't be too much scrutiny. By the way, why did you think of visiting Master Lansuo? I've heard about your Langxie County, please hurry up.
Tell brother, who is that master?"
Chu Yuan's eyes were full of curiosity.
Xiao Qinghe picked up the vegetables again, put it into his mouth and chewed it, smiling bitterly.
There are only two thousand states left in Da Qin.
Because of the different geographical locations, counties with more than 100,000 to 200,000 are divided below.
Whether it is his Langye County, the Sishui County during this period, or the Yunzhong County in front of him, they all fall under the jurisdiction of Nanyang Prefecture.
Under Nanyang Prefecture, there are a total of 90,000 counties.
They all have the same immediate boss, a terrifying governor of the ancestral realm.
So in the same state, sometimes the governors have meetings, or because the counties border each other, they will get to know each other and become good friends.
The Chu Yuan in front of him, to a certain extent, had a good relationship with Xiao Qinghe.
After returning from the army and taking over Langxie County for hundreds of years, he began to treat his condition when everything was stable.
It was through Chu Yuan's help that he was fortunate enough to establish a relationship with Master Lan Suo.
However, after his diagnosis, there was still nothing he could do.
At that time, Xiao Qinghe gave up completely. After all, what the military elders and others said to Lan Suo were almost exactly the same.
Then he went back.
Then came the third war between humans and insects that lasted for thousands of years. The Zergs counterattacked, territories were lost, and hundreds of regiments in the Qin Dynasty were killed or injured...
I feel even more depressed and despairing about my own affairs.
"Do you believe me when I say I don't know?" Xiao Qinghe said with a bitter smile.
Chu Yuan picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Xiao Qinghe.
"It's boring. You and I are hiding it. Forget it, there are very few people who show up openly and openly like Master Lan Suo. Those tenth-level alchemy masters who are alive are afraid of the Zerg's revenge on him, and they are too lazy to fight against the forces of all parties.
It's a great act of kindness to come out once."
Listening to Chu Yuan's complaining and sarcastic tone, Xiao Qinghe had no choice but to toast him again.
There is no way, once the tenth grade alchemist shows up, it is time to make alchemy.
Such a huge vision of heaven and earth would be impossible if it did not attract attention.
Moreover, alchemists generally have low cultivation levels because most of their body and mind are devoted to alchemy.
Once discovered, it is almost impossible to leave quietly.
If you refuse invitations from various forces, you can't afford to offend them all, and jealousy may lead to hatred.
Don’t refuse. Refining elixirs for several years at a time will make you physically and mentally exhausted.
Failed to refine the medicine for the other party. You have finished the medicinal materials that they worked so hard to obtain, but what you wanted has not been solved yet.
Who do you think he will blame?
All in all, it's very complicated.
Moreover, he would not say anything about the Eighth Legion and Wei Lao even if he was killed.
The reason why that master was exposed and now being watched by so many people was not because he made elixirs for him.
The two of them just exchanged cups.
Not long after, a beam of light came from the second floor window and was caught in the palm of Chu Yuan's hand.
He laughed after reading it.
"Let's go, Brother Xiao. Master Lan Suo happens to have time today and is in retreat on weekdays. I think he heard you came, mainly because he wanted to inquire about the mysterious master!" Chu Yuan stood up and said with a smile.
Xiao Qinghe straightened his clothes: "Thank you, Brother Chu, for your help this time. If I were to visit you, it would probably take some time to verify your identity."
"You're too polite. Anyway, I have nothing to do. We are all brothers from Nanyang Prefecture. Let's go!" Chu Yuan said.
…………
Burial Mountain!
Led by a group of Da Qin soldiers, the two of them kept going up the mountain.
Soon, bustling pavilions and pavilions appeared one after another.
As far as I could see, there were many young people talking and laughing.
Some people even become interested when they see Chu Yuan and Xiao Qinghe.
Chu Yuan quietly introduced: "These are the direct descendants of the princes, generals and ministers. They are familiar here. Some have even stayed for tens of thousands of years. They just hope to be noticed by Master Lan Suo, and then they will make a fortune."
, look over there, there are alchemists from other counties.
But they are all third- and fourth-grade ones. I hope to get some advice. You and I are both old people who have gone through the third war between humans and insects. At that time, there were tenth-grade alchemists everywhere.
We all look down upon the Ninth Grade, but now that things have changed, we have to welcome these low-level alchemists with a smile if necessary."
Hearing Chu Yuan's words, Xiao Qinghe also sighed.
"Yes, we were so prosperous at that time. Who would have thought that in the past few thousand years we would have achieved great success, and the four great immortal dynasties' high subsidies for medical teams such as alchemists would have allowed them to enter the battlefield across the board.
But I didn't expect that this was all a Zerg conspiracy. They opened the door to let us in, and finally made dumplings directly.
Even their original territory has been lost, and now they are nothing but treasures to the entire human race."
In this way, several people kept going up the mountain.
"Stop anyone who comes!"
At this moment, a deep voice sounded.
When the two of them looked up, they saw a man and a woman walking towards the top of the mountain.
There was even an aura that looked like the power of heaven descending, making the two of them tremble in their souls.
Two true semi-ancestral realm experts.
One of the figures was as straight as a spear, with a face carved like a chisel and an axe, and his skin was bronze and covered with scars.
Exuding the chilling aura of the monstrous sea of blood.
The other one is a graceful-looking woman dressed in plain clothes.
The woman has hair as long as snow and wears a veil, but her temperament is as elegant as water and her face is pure and beautiful. She is simply a complete beauty.
Zhou Zhili, Sikong Qingyu!
These two people had received favors from Master Lansu in the past, so they swore an oath to protect him for a hundred thousand years in return.
"I've met Senior Zhou and Senior Sikong!"
Chu Yuan and Xiao Qinghe saluted together.
The half-ancestral state named Zhou Zhili had an extra jade tube in his hand, and he checked it for a while.
Then check the identity of the two people.
Finally nodded.
"Master Chu, I haven't seen you for a long time. This must be the governor of Langxie County, right?" Zhou Zhili said.
As a strong person in the Half-Ancestral Realm, he can easily suppress the Tongtian Realm.
So we are not in the same circle, so we basically don’t know each other.
"Junior Langye County Governor Xiao Qinghe!" Xiao Qinghe said.
Chu Yuan smiled: "Well, don't worry, we are all our own people, Master Lan Suo..."
"Master is waiting, you come with me!" Sikong Qingyu said, then turned around and led the way.
Chu Yuan whispered to Xiao Qinghe.
"Because Master Lan Suo only has the early stage of Tong Tian Realm, any visitor, including me, as long as he is beyond the early stage of Tong Tian Realm, both of them must be present to ensure the safety of Master Lan Suo. You and I are both at the late stage of Tong Tian Realm now.
Cultivation, so what you want to say later will not avoid them.
Isn’t it a bit annoying? But there is no way, they have used this method to kill several Zerg races over the years.”
After hearing what Chu Yuan said, Xiao Qinghe understood.
He's not here to assassinate him, so he has nothing to fear.
But when I first visited Master Lan Suo, these two people had never met.
In this way, after passing through many checkpoints, we finally arrived at a quaint palace on the top of the mountain.
The ground fire here is very warm, and even the air is filled with a sense of heat.
As you enter, the shelves on both sides of the hall are filled with various elixirs.
There are more than a dozen huge alchemy furnaces as tall as three people standing quietly.
Three of them were burning with flames, flickering on and off.
"Ahem, Mr. Xiao, we meet again!"
At this moment, an old voice came from behind one of the alchemy furnaces.
Then, a thin figure walked out with his cuffs in his sleeves.
