Chapter 2207: Deceived (2)
Shen Yanxiao shook her head.
Gege Lu on one side remained silent. The dialogue between Kaka Qi and Shen Yanxiao gave rise to a strange idea in his mind.
Shen Yanxiao said before that the gold coins she used for the purchase of these metals were from her own hobby. As far as Gege Lu knew, the amount of money needed to buy such a large amount of metal could be said to be very large. Since it was Shen Yanxiao’s hobby, then it couldn’t be alchemy.
Nowadays, in the bazaar, the items that could be sold quickly, apart from alchemy products, were potions and raw materials.
Momo Xiao admitted that she had gone to sell the potions today, but faced with Kaka Qi’s inquiry, she pushed the source of the potions to her unknown friend, which was not the same as what Little Xiao had said to Gege Lu.
Gege Lu could not help but wonder…
Was it possible that those potions were in fact made by Little Xiao?
That making potions was actually her “hobby”?
Gege Lu was startled by his own thoughts. It was not difficult to tell from Kaka Qi’s words that the pharmacist he was looking for was able to make a very powerful potion, even better than all the pharmacists in the Pharmacist Guild; otherwise, Kaka Qi would not have been in such a hurry to look for the person.
Gege Lu had also heard that Kaka Qi had teamed up with the pharmacists of several other large bazaars in search of a mysterious pharmacist, but it had been so long, yet they had found nothing.
Could it be…
Gege Lu’s eyes subconsciously looked at Little Xiao.
The level of Momo Xiao’s alchemy was not the best, but she had an unusual flame in her hands and she was growing at the fastest rate among the alchemists Gege Lu had ever seen.
Although he had never clearly seen her appearance, from her voice, it was not difficult to judge that she was not old.
At her age, being able to get to where she was now in alchemy was already quite good. How could she still have had the experience to delve into pharmaceutics? And the level of research was even higher than that of Kaka Qi?
A series of doubts lingered in Gege Lu’s mind. He kept guessing, but also constantly denying.
“Well, can you tell me some descriptions of your friend? Or did he mention where he was going to train?” Kaka Qi was still not giving up. Even if there was only a 1/1000 chance, he had to give it a try.
“He was a man in his fifties, and he did not tell me where he was going. He just said he was going to get closer to nature to look for the true meaning of pharmaceutics.” Shen Yanxiao’s face did not even turn red nor did she gasp for air for telling such a big lie. The Storm Continent was big, and the scope she uttered was so wide that Kaka Qi and others couldn’t have an easy time searching.
Sure enough, after hearing the “clues” provided by Shen Yanxiao, the smile on Kaka Qi’s face was uglier than when he was crying.
With the Storm Continent being so big and having so many forests deep in the mountains, how could he know which nook and cranny the mysterious pharmacist would hide in?
“Then I’d like to ask, do you still have any of his potions?” Kaka Qi also knew that with this clue alone, it was impossible to find the pharmacist.
“There are a few more bottles. I can send them if you want…”
Shen Yanxiao only wanted to get rid of Kaka Qi sooner, she didn’t want to expose herself too much after all. However, before Shen Yanxiao could finish speaking, Gege Lu had jumped out.
“Send what! The Pharmacist Guild is so rich, if you want a potion, you should pay for it!”
