Chapter 405 Invitation to the Ball
Xingqi looked through the post that He Shu took, and then he remained silent. The purple and golden post was marked with the words "Lenda, Bugail" and "There are words in the words "The two alchemists" jointly invited themselves to attend a dance...
Another invitation post was actually delivered by two fourth-grade alchemists who were greatly reduced to their identities. It was only two days after the auction ended. Xingqi was a little confused, and it seemed that the matter was unexpected.
I am just a third-grade alchemist now, not a fifth-grade alchemist, or I am really a fifth-grade alchemist, and I am just pressing on the fourth-grade alchemist in the Medicine Master Guild. People will not be afraid of me at all. The fourth-grade alchemist is the backbone of the Medicine Master Guild. Even a fifth-grade alchemist who is above the level cannot drive them.
Moreover, as fourth-grade alchemists, these old men who have been in the top position for a long time are not arrogant. Even when they arrive at the emperor, they do not visit them like other pharmacist branch presidents. It is good that they are not angry with them, and they come so hard that they are strange.
Xingqi would not believe that his character had an outbreak. He gave him an image outside during this period, but he was crazy, revengeful, insidious, and did not have the gentleness and elegance of the alchemists of the Pharmacist Guild at all. Or in the eyes of the people of the Pharmacist Guild, he did not have the noble qualities of the alchemists at all, but he was like a nouveau riche.
"Tidi, it's interesting. Dean He has been so glorious these days. Please help me figure out what you think about the arrival of the two elixirs. I'll give me some guidance!" Xingqi calmed down for a while, and looked at He Shu, who looked like he had gained weight in the past few days.
Within two days, almost all the pharmacist branches of the Mosang Empire sent people to visit, and even some small forces came to visit him. He Shu, who was in his own name, was definitely indispensable to be invited out to eat and drink. I am afraid that his pockets would be much more bulging.
Although He Shu was quite unfamiliar with the Pharmacist Guild in the Imperial Capital, he had mixed up with the first and second-grade alchemists within a few days, and used his own food and drink and talk, and still brought up a lot of extremely useful information. He Shu was asked to see the leopard with a spot and meet him, and also found out the composition of the huge organization of the Pharmacist Guild.
The Pharmacist Guild is generally divided into three factions, led by the fifth-grade alchemist of the Qi Caihe, and it is already in opposition to Xingqi. The fourth-grade alchemist Biyu and Caiqi, who could have joined forces with Xingqi, somehow isolated Xingqi. Renda and Bugail, who have always been neutral in the fourth-grade alchemist, faced Xingqi who was in the middle of the vortex, and of course, they avoided it.
(To explain this, in the previous chapter of entering the imperial capital, Biyou and Caiqi said that the two alchemists had become fifth-grade alchemists, and they had been modified. Biyou and Caiqi were determined to be fourth-grade alchemists. I am afraid that book friends will misunderstand this, so I will explain this.)
To these two neutral fourth-grade alchemist Lunda, Bugail and his two others came to invite Xingqi to attend a dance. He Shu, who had sharp eyes, saw the motivation of the second-grade old alchemist from the recent reaction of the Pharmacist Guild, from the fact that he could see the recent reaction of the Pharmacist Guild.
However, He Shu did not think about telling Xingqi what he thought. Anyway, it doesn't matter whether Xingqi knows or not. He will know as soon as he leaves, and He Shu is still a little worried, which may have a lot to do with him.
"Haha, Boss Xingqi, you can't see through it. My little pharmacist has finished learning, and I can't see through it. I have been running up and down to entertain the alchemists who come here for you these days for the sake of Boss. My body is almost exhausted."
He Shu touched the oily forehead with one hand, and Ruyi did not see the smile in Xingqi's eyes, his big belly shaking, and shook his cheeks and shouted, making a look like he was angry and resentful when he worked hard for the boss but could not get the boss's praise.
"Haha, you have worked hard these two days. For me, I have been running up and down, and I have been traveling to many restaurants in the imperial capital. I have worked hard to eat so many delicacies. Is it because I have been working hard to get cramped when I have not counted the money?"
Xingqi looked quite considerate of He Shu's hard work and made great contributions. He also patted He Shu's tightly supported his clothes and showed a big belly, but he was mostly suspicious of this fat man in He Shu.
Although he has not gone out and has not paid attention to it many times these days, he still heard from the third girl that He Shu has been busy these days, drinking most of his drunkenness every day, and still asked someone to carry it back. To understand He Shu's character, Xingqi doesn't have to think about it, and he knows what He Shu has been busy with these days.
Xingqi doesn't care about He Shu taking other people's money and suddenly clicking others. However, yesterday Xingqi was afraid that He Shu would suffer losses outside. During this period, the imperial capital was mixed with people and snakes, and was not very stable. He was afraid of being used by others, so he sent Lei Tian to protect him secretly. However, he didn't expect that He Shu was outside like an old resentful woman who had been hated for many years and had been exiled to destroy her image.
He Shu followed the alchemists to form a group of brothers, calling him brothers, and being soft-mouthed, and taking others with his hands. He Shu also had to come forward to give them some information and point out some Xingqi's temperament, hobbies, etc.
When I, He Shu, occasionally unconsciously touched Xingqi's itinerary and deeds, and put out smoke bombs, I would not really reveal Xingqi's temperament, but just let others associate. As for what others can associate, I don't know, and He Shu can't control it. Maybe He Shu deliberately wanted to associate it like that.
For example, He Shu said several times that Xingqi always likes to take his concubines and girls out to play, ignoring the matter of the pharmacist branch, and is still taking action in Tianying Restaurant. In Qingxiang Valley, Xingqi once resented himself for squeezing his gold coins and holding revenge on him for several years, and now he has to commit himself to Xingqi to work hard for him and repay him.
Of course, He Shu sometimes said that, his face would be thrust like painful memories, and his face was full of wine with tears in his eyes. He made everyone beside him really believe it, and even looked at the fat man with a snot on his face with a snot on his face with a snot on his face with a snot on his face. He Shu took advantage of the opportunity of the two days to almost scold Xingqi. Now when he saw Xingqi, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Xingqi's actions in Qingxiang Valley have been collected by the Pharmacist Guild, and these things are known to everyone. As for whether others can think of Xingqi's lust, cruelty towards the enemy, etc., these are nothing to do with He Shu. Of course, He Shu felt that he was worthy of everyone's money for wine and food.
"Haha, there is no way. In order to complete the task you assigned by your boss, I, He Shu, endured the pain and ate and drank, and accompanied the alchemist. Although I had no choice but to collect some money, it was also a tip for my luck in running away. In your eyes, it was just a small amount of money. Boss, you must reward me well."
He Shu was picked out by Xingqi, but he still looked at Xingqi with a serious face. He was completely embarrassed before, and even showed off his face as if he was a hero and invited him to reward him.
Seeing that He Shu's face had reached this level, she was truly shameless, Xingqi was speechless. He knew what he would say later, so he didn't talk to him anymore. Thinking that the two alchemists over there were still waiting, Xingqi patted He Shu's belly again, as if he was regretting his real abuser in the past few days, so he left.
In fact, the relationship between He Shu and Xingqi is a very strange type on the mainland. In the eyes of ordinary people, it is a relationship between superiors and subordinates. He Shu helps Xingqi to do things, and is Xingqi's subordinate, with two levels, the strong and the weak.
However, in the hearts of Xingqi and He Shu, they were good teachers and friends. They could be considered masters and migrants. Xingqi had learned a lot of skills from He Shu. They were also close friends. Both of them knew each other very well. He Shu was very casual about Xingqi, and Xingqi was very tolerant of He Shu. Some of their personalities were very similar and they were both very treacherous.
He Shu shook his head and looked happy, instead of following Xingqi to the guest room, he ran to a recliner where he usually chatted with Xingqi, enjoying the coolness of the shade under the scorching sun.
In the guest room, Xingqi met Renda and the two alchemy masters of Bugail. Renda was older, not tall, with white hair all over his head, and a long string of white sect beards. It was a very old-fashioned portrait of a little old man.
Bugail looked much younger than Renda. His blue-gray hair was covered with stubborn beards, and he actually had thick eyebrows and eyes. With his burly body, he was a warrior who was like a weak alchemist who was engaged in medicine.
People should not behave like each other, and the sea should not be measured. Xingqi and the two alchemists greeted each other and then sat down and talked. During the discussion, the little old man Renda had no solemn and old-fashioned aura, and was quite lively and versatile. He spoke a lot. His old mouth spoke like a little bird and he was very curious about Xingqi. His dark eyes looked at Xingqi from time to time.
Bugail spoke very little, his tone was light and his manners were elegant and gentle, and his big figure turned into a distinctive color. If the old man Huada was an old child, then Bugail was a big man, and the two of them were together in a strange combination.
After a long conversation with the two, the old man Renda spoke humorously, Bugail said calmly, and their attitude was also calm. Xingqi knew about their character first, but solved many of the previous questions. From the conversation between Renda and Bugail, they did not come for his possible identity as a fifth-grade alchemist, but for his extraordinary characteristics that he showed in the Pharmacist Guild.
The two of them don’t care about the power in the Pharmacist Guild, and don’t care about their identities that are not very different from each other. They just like to meet with special people. In other words, Xingqi understands them, they like to meet with people who are isolated from the Pharmacist Guild and are different from the Pharmacist Guild, maybe they are like the two of them, who have obviously different appearances or temperaments from the usual dull pharmacist pharmacist.
Listening to the two alchemists expressing their friendship and kindness to him, willing to submit to him, and implying that they are not a bad personality such as lust, revenge, and calamity. As long as they do not look down on those people with strange temperaments, they will let Xingqi be speechless again.
Xingqi had already let Lei Tian collect information about Renda and Bugail, and knew that they were the kind of alchemists with extremely strange personalities. Today's experience is indeed well-deserved. In a few words, Xingqi learned that the information was too slight in the description of the strange personalities of the two.
The first choice is that the two of them are completely casual. Before entering the house, they sit and lie down comfortably. When the master comes in, they just stand up to show respect. Looking at the little old Fang Renda who is talking, he is posing with his legs up. After a while, he drinks a tea and calls himself to change it. After a while, he has already drunk three cups, but he still wants it. He has never had any strange appearances at all.
But Bugail, who had a rough face but was gentle, had a very comfortable lying position, blew lightly with a cup of tea, only smelling but not drinking, and truly quenching thirst when smelling the smell, and his lying horizontally did not regard this as someone else's house.
Xingqi didn't know whether the two of them were trying to show that they had regarded themselves as their own people or that they were approachable, but their behavior was indeed weird enough, alternative enough, and had an impact on their master's thoughts. Fortunately, Xingqi was also a person who didn't care much about the appearance. As long as they didn't offend themselves, they were generally very easy-going.
"Haha, brother Xingqi, it's not that I, Renda, have been engaged in the medicinal material industry for hundreds of years, but your senior, will you say "Brother, you're not shy?"
Seeing Xingqi looking at him as if he was very enthusiastic, and the three of them were having a very happy chat, the old child really called Brother Xingqi to get up.
