Fighting: Dragon and Phoenix Alchemist

Chapter 224 Going to Nalan's House

At the entrance of the Miter family's mansion, Xia Mo and Xiao Yan stood at the fork in the street, looking at the flow of people coming and going. They looked up at a huge mansion in the center of the city, where was Gama. One of the three major families in the empire, the seat of the Nalan family.

The two looked at each other, nodded, took out the ice silkworm mask from the ring, put it on, and walked towards the huge mansion not far away.

Approaching the majestic mansion, the two of them saw that there were already many people gathered at the door, and all of them were wearing alchemist robes, with a few strands on their chests. The bright silver ripples proudly displayed their status and rank.

On the street with people coming and going, all the passers-by who pass by here will cast their envious and awe-inspiring eyes on the group of alchemists who whisper to each other. general occupation.

As for these powerful alchemists, the Nalan family obviously did not dare to neglect them easily. At the door, some servants were respectfully talking to the alchemists who were waiting outside. They found out that the other party did have the strength to enter. Finally, they let them go, and some alchemists whose strength was really questionable could only be rejected by them with smiles.

Although this kind of action dissatisfied those alchemists who were blocked, but thinking about the power of the Nalan family and the relationship between Nalan Yanran and the Misty Cloud Sect, they had no choice but to leave with a little displeasure.

The two stopped and stared at the door for a while. Xia Mo discovered that the alchemists who were allowed to enter seemed to be third-grade alchemists, while those who were rejected were second-grade, or even There are also some first-grade alchemists who come to join in the fun...

Xia Mo didn't pay much attention to these things, greeted Xiao Yan, and walked directly towards the rather heavily guarded gate of the Nalan family.

After squeezing through the crowd, Xia Mo and Xiao Yan stepped forward. An old man who seemed to be a housekeeper hurriedly greeted him. He looked at Xia Mo's short body and the fourth-grade alchemist badge on his chest. A little excitement flashed through his cloudy old eyes, because an unknown fourth-grade alchemist represented an opportunity to save Nalan Jie.

Although the other party seemed to have some physical defects, like a dwarf, which surprised him a little, but this level surprised him. After all, Xia Mo, who looks less than middle-aged, has reached the fourth-rank alchemist. But it was rare, as for Xiao Yan who was on the side, he ignored him and thought he was the disciple of this fourth-rank pharmacist.

Although he was a little surprised and excited in his heart, the old man who had been a housekeeper in the Nalan family for decades could already control his emotions very well, and now he showed some gentle smiles, and said with a smile: "My lord, I am Nalan Housekeeper of the family, you must have come to see if you can heal old man Nalan Jie, right?"

Xia Mo nodded and did not speak. After all, his voice would not turn into that of a middle-aged man, and he could only speak in a lowered voice, so he simply said less. The face covered by the ice silkworm's skin looked a little cold. .

Xia Mo's almost indifferent expression made the old man slightly stunned. This attitude was somewhat different from other alchemists.

"My brother's voice is uncomfortable, so he doesn't talk much." Xiao Yan's voice was also suppressed by him to be a little hoarse, and he came out calmly. He was also very helpless, but he didn't expect Xia Mo's ice silkworm face to be a middle-aged man. He looked older than him, so he had no choice but to be taken advantage of.

The old man suddenly nodded.

Xia Mo gave Xiao Yan a signal and asked him to take out Ya Fei's recommendation letter from the Najie.

Xiao Yan took out the letter of recommendation and handed it to the former, saying coldly: "This is the letter of recommendation from the Miter family. Can we let in?"

Xiao Yan's words caused the old man's face to change slightly. After receiving the letter of recommendation, he looked up at the person who recommended him. The Lan family is also welcome!"

"Two gentlemen, please, I hope you can really treat our old man. If that happens, you will be our Nalan family's forever friends." Bowing slightly to the two, the old man's voice was even more respectful.

Xia Mo nodded slightly, his face still expressionless, without any more nonsense, he and Xiao Yan slowly walked into the door, and then disappeared from everyone's sight.

Entering the gate, a pretty maid hurriedly walked out from the side, then said a few words softly to the two of them, leading the way.

Following the maid unhurriedly, Xia Mo's eyes swept across the luxurious mansion. The tall and majestic buildings made him nod slightly in secret. Apart from other things, this Nalan family is indeed worthy of being a member of the family. One of the three major families in the Mar Empire.

Walking on the path paved with blue gravel, Xia Mo's eyes suddenly narrowed slightly. In his perception, ever since he entered the depths of the Nalan family, there were hidden glances and soul perception. , that is to shoot out from some hidden corners, and take their every move into their eyes.

I raised my head inadvertently, and glanced casually over a roof, where some dark shadows, hidden in the gloom, were painted black one by one, covering the sharp arrow points reflecting the sunlight, slowly moving Moving in the mansion, any disturbance would cause them to deliver the attack in an instant.

"The defense is indeed very strong, although it is vulnerable..." Xia Mo smiled, and looked up at a luxurious hall that appeared at the end of the trail. Through the concealed gate, he could vaguely see that there seemed to be many people standing in it. people.

Slowly walking into the hall, there were some low whispers. When the door was opened gently, the whispers in the hall stopped. Then one after another eyes turned to the door. The first thing everyone noticed was Because of Xia Mo's height, he showed a little ridicule, but when he saw the fourth-grade alchemist badge on his chest, a trace of unnaturalness flashed in his eyes.

Xia Mo didn't pay attention, and his eyes slowly swept across the hall. In the spacious hall, there were about a dozen alchemists wearing the same color robes. On their chests, they wore the badges of third-level alchemists, but these Most of the third-grade alchemists are in middle age, and two of them have gray hair.

Ignoring those gazes, Xia Mo fixed his slowly moving gaze on a middle-aged man at the head of the hall. This man was not wearing the alchemist's robe, and he was sitting on a chair with a big horse and a golden knife, his tiger eyes opened. In the room, there was quite an air of calmness and prestige.

His eyes moved away from the middle-aged man, and finally stopped on the delicate body of the beautiful woman beside him. Xia Mo was not unfamiliar with this woman he had only seen twice. After all, he thought that if this woman were not so proud, They are definitely among the group of people who are relatively talented, and if they are lucky, they are very likely to become top experts.

Next to the middle-aged man, Nalan Yanran, who was wearing a moon robe, sat quietly, looking at the two people who entered the door with her beautiful eyes, surprise also flashed across her pretty face.

When Xia Mo stared at the middle-aged man, the man also stopped his gaze on him. Although Xia Mo's height made him slightly stunned, he immediately stood up and smiled at Xia Mo: "This Sir, in the Nalan family, Nalansu."

"Nalan Su?" As soon as he heard the name, Xiao Yan's hands in his sleeves trembled slightly, and the corners of his eyes jumped involuntarily. He stared closely at this rather heroic middle-aged man. This man actually... He was Nalan Yanran's father, and the man who almost became his father-in-law...

"My senior brother doesn't like to talk, you can call him Mo Qi, and I'm Yan Xiao..." Slowly suppressing some inexplicable emotions in his heart, Xiao Yan explained with a slightly hoarse voice: "Ya Concubine of the Mittel family Miss recommended us to come and see if we can detoxify Mr. Nalan."

"Oh, it doesn't matter. It turned out to be recommended by Ya Fei's niece. Please sit down, both of you." Hearing this, Nalan Su looked at Xia Mo and nodded suddenly, laughing.

Xia Mo nodded slightly, and sat down at the last seat with Xiao Yan under the respectful eyes.

Sitting on the chair, the two fell into silence, but Xia Mo felt that Nalan Yanran's gaze stayed on Xiao Yan for a long time, and thought to himself: "Could it be a woman's sixth sense, otherwise How to explain..."

"Hehe, everyone must be aware of the problems our Nalan family has encountered. My father was poisoned by the famous "burning poison" before. Now that the poison has exploded, he finally can't hold on. Master Furukawa came once, but he is still Some are at a loss, although he said that he needs to use a different fire to expel the toxins in the old man's body, but there are too few alchemists who have a different fire, and it is too difficult to find, so I can only try it , you are also among the top alchemist masters in the Jia Ma Empire, and each of you has unique abilities, so I would like to ask you to help me to see if there is another way?" Nalansu looked around , with a deep smile.

"I don't want to talk nonsense, as long as you can heal the old man, you will never be disappointed in terms of remuneration!" With a wave of his hand, Nalansu pointed to a side door and said, "The old man is inside. Please try them one by one."

Hearing this, the dozen or so pharmacists in the hall looked at each other. After a while, an old man with gray hair stood up with a smile and walked into the side room first. However, ten minutes later, he came out shaking his head and sat down. Back on the chair, he sneered at Nalansu and said, "I'm sorry, Patriarch Nalan, the causative poison is really too stubborn. The dozen or so detoxification pills I prepared have no effect."

Hearing the old man's words, Nalansu and Nalan Yanran sighed in disappointment, looked at each other, smiled wryly and shook their heads.

After the old man, a dozen alchemists entered the side room one after another, but after more than ten minutes, they all walked out awkwardly. Obviously, they were not at all aware of the poison that even Furukawa could not do anything about. that ability.

Following the embarrassing pharmacists who came out one by one, the disappointment on the faces of Nalansu and Nalan Yanran became more and more intense. When the last pharmacist came out, their mood finally sank slowly. , Nalan Yanran beside her, her beautiful eyes were slightly flushed.

In the hall, a dozen or so third-grade pharmacists no longer had the complacency and pride they had before, and kept silent with embarrassing old faces.

With the silence of the people, the atmosphere in the hall gradually became dull. After a while, Nalansu sighed and said with a forced smile: "Thank you all, it seems that the old man is indeed destined to die. It failed, but I will ask the steward to give you a rich reward later on."

Listening to this disguising words, everyone smiled wryly and shook their heads. They stood up and wanted to leave. They really had no face to accept rewards for this kind of atmosphere.

"Are we here?"

Plain words suddenly came from the corner, breaking the atmosphere of silence, Xia Mo and Xiao Yan walked out with indifferent expressions, the calm voice reminded everyone in the hall that there was a fourth-grade alchemist!
