Early the next morning, the sun shone through the window lattice in Xiao Zhan's study. Xiao Zhan was sitting at his desk, holding a bamboo slip in his hand, which was the Wutan News - this news was similar to the newspaper in Maqi Continent, providing all kinds of news and information.
He browsed the news with a focused expression.
At this moment, the third elder rushed into the study in a hurry, without even bothering to knock on the door or say hello first. There was a bit of eagerness on his face, and he held a light red bottle tightly in his hand.
"Xiao...No, patriarch, look at this!"
The third elder shouted anxiously, but his tone still revealed his appreciation for the bottle of rejuvenation liquid.
Xiao Zhan frowned, put down the bamboo slips in his hands, and looked at the third elder:"Third elder, what happened?"
"Patriarch, this is the rejuvenation liquid recently launched by the Jialie family and the Oba family. It is said to be of excellent quality and can even treat some simple internal injuries."The third elder took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions:"This rejuvenation liquid is very effective, and it immediately attracted the attention of all the casual cultivators in Wutan City. They flocked to the markets of the Jialie family and the Oba family like a tide. Our Xiao family's market has almost no business now~"
Xiao Zhan raised his head and saw the light red bottle in the third elder's hand, and his heart moved.
He Understand the importance of this bottle of rejuvenation liquid. Although it is only a first-class elixir, its effect is enough to cause the warriors in the entire Wutan City to go crazy.
"This is the rejuvenating liquid that the Gallie family and the Oba family recently withdrew from."The third elder explained,"The color and effect are so good that it even attracted warriors from the entire Wutan City to flock to those two markets like a tide."
Xiao Zhan frowned. He naturally understood the weight of the news. He took the light red bottle from the third elder's hand and observed it carefully. The liquid in the bottle was crystal clear and exuded a faint fragrance. Although he was not an alchemist He is a pharmacist, but he is also a warrior who has practiced for decades - he has never seen a pig running, has he never eaten pork?
Xiao Zhan nodded slightly and expressed his affirmation of the quality of the rejuvenation liquid, but still said:"But, this The method of making the bottle of rejuvenating liquid is still a bit unfamiliar. If my guess is correct, this should be the handiwork of a first-grade alchemist, and a young first-grade alchemist~" The third elder nodded:"Yes, according to us To report from the details of the Jialie family and the Oba family, the Jialie family did recently invite an alchemist named Liu Xi. This Liu Xi is young, but his medicine refining skills are very good. This rejuvenating liquid must be his masterpiece."
Xiao Zhan's eyes flickered, and he secretly thought that it was true. After Xiao Yan told him the whole story at night, he had already guessed that the Jialie family and the Oba family would make big moves. Now it seems that this Liu Xi is in their hands. A trump card.
However, this is fine. Wutan City has indeed been silent for too long.
"Patriarch, the income from the market accounts for half of the Xiao family's annual income. There can be no mistakes. What are your suggestions?"
The third elder had a worried look on his face, and he spoke quite uneasily.
Xiao Zhan pretended to be calm, and said with a slight smile,"What are you afraid of? Most of the elixirs in Wutan City are produced by Snake Nest, which is a good friend of our Xiao family. Mercenary group supply. Without the elixir, no matter how good the alchemist is, he cannot make a meal without straw."
Dong dong dong - just at this moment, a rush of footsteps sounded at the door of the study. The second elder rushed in with a rush, his face was solemn, as if with endless heaviness. He said in a deep voice,"Patriarch, Snake The herb collection team of the Nest Mercenary Group was attacked in the Warcraft Mountains yesterday and the entire army was wiped out. The Snake Nest Mercenary Group said that the recent herb collection teams have been frequently attacked by other mercenary groups such as the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, and the losses have been too heavy. They will not be able to supply elixirs to our Xiao family for at least the next month. Even if the supply is restored in the future, the price may be high. It will rise sharply~"
Xiao Zhan's expression suddenly changed, and a turmoil arose in his heart. He asked in a trembling voice,"How did the Wolf Head Mercenary Group know the source of my Xiao family's elixir?"
This question filled his mind with surprise and confusion. He secretly prayed that it was just a coincidence.
The second elder looked at him deeply and said in a deep voice,"There is a mole, and he is a mole at the top."
These words made Xiao Zhan's heart freeze for an instant - the enemy is really in the Clan Affairs Council!
Regret suddenly surged in his heart, remembering Xiao Yan's warning before. At that time, he just thought that he was a young man who was inexperienced in the world, and he couldn't help but feel a little... Self-righteous. Now it seems that maybe Xiao Yan is not just a guess, but has some real evidence, but he has not told him everything.
The house leaked and it rained all night. Although he was mentally prepared, the development of the matter still exceeded Xiao Zhan's imagination.. He began to realize that this was not just a simple attack, but more like a joint strangulation by various hostile forces.
