Elf's hand

For Chu Haoren personally, he also hopes that with an opponent like Chu Haoli around, both parties can encourage each other and make progress together.

Chu Haoli was startled, "Going to the capital?"

"Not bad." Chu Haoren smiled and said, "See you in the capital!"

Today's harvest was very rich, and Chu Haoren was naturally in a very happy mood. After teasing Chu Haoren a few times, he asked the pharmacist of the Poison Pill Hall who rushed over after hearing the news to go to the Herb Collection Hall to compensate him for everything he had destroyed. , and then swaggered into the gate of the medicine palace.

These days, Qian Ling'er was allowed to enter the library and spent all day in the library. Qian Nanyu also left early and came back late. He didn't know what to do. Luo Ye was the only one left to take care of the medicine collection hall.

Luo Ye was also diligent and managed the affairs of the Herb Collection Hall in an orderly manner, and his cultivation level was gradually improving.

Being able to have such a stable life and improve his cultivation by the way is what Luo Ye has longed for, so although he is busy, he is also very happy.

Seeing Chu Haoren come in, Luo Ye, who was humming a little tune, quickly put down the huge watering can in his hand and said with a smile: "Master, Pharmacist Xue just came back once, and he left you a Xuan-level elixir manual, and she also said this Once you go out, it will take a long time before you come back."

Mysterious level elixir manual? Chu Haoren's eyes suddenly lit up, he waved to Luo Ye and walked quickly to the alchemy.

Pharmacist Xue has always been a dragon that never sees its end. They have not seen her since the last time he took them into the medicine gathering hall, and she has not even been seen in the ancestral hall.

Now Chu Haoren is surprised when he thinks about it. Pharmacist Xue is a fighting general and the master of the Medicine Collection Hall. With such status and strength, he should be a high-level member of the Chu family, but he did not appear.

However, according to her unique style, maybe she was busy with her own affairs and did not show up!

Chu Haoren has been able to refine essence-nourishing pills and has become a veritable pharmacist, qualified to refine Xuan-level pills. He has read the medicine books given to him by Pharmacist Xue before, as well as the pharmacopoeia in the alchemy, including many Xuan-level pills. There is information on elixirs such as level, earth level, etc., but those elixirs are very special, the materials are scarce, and there is no condition to refine them.

This time, Pharmacist Xue was able to leave a mysterious-level elixir manual for himself before leaving. This was a timely blessing for Chu Haoren.

Quickly entering the alchemy, Chu Haoren saw a finger-thick volume on the originally sparse shelf of medicinal books, and quickly took it in his hand.

After hurriedly flipping through the medicine book and browsing through the elixirs recorded in it, Chu Haoren nodded repeatedly, "Sure enough, they are all Xuan-level elixirs, from ordinary to top-notch, there are hundreds of them, and the materials are also It’s not particularly difficult to find, and it seems that the types of my Miaoshou Dan will increase a lot in the future.”

Chu Haoren sat down in the alchemy shop with great interest and began to read through it, gaining a deeper understanding of these Xuan-level elixirs.

However, he considered that it had been more than a month since the last competition, and Lin Nan had sent people to urge him several times to hurry up and report to the capital. There was no time to refine these mysterious-level elixirs now.

After all, superficial work still needs to be done. If it is delayed any longer, the relationship between the Chu family and Lin Nan may be strained, which would be more than worth the loss. Therefore, after Chu Haoren read it carefully, he put the medicine book into the medicine bag. Start packing your bags and prepare to leave tomorrow.

Just as the eastern sky was filled with a few rays of glow, two large carriages set off from the Chu family's mansion and headed southwest along the avenue in the center of the town.

This time, the Chu family sent sixth-grade fighting general Chu Xuanhuan to escort Chu Haoren to the capital. This was to prevent Chu Yiyue from secretly attacking him. In addition, Chu Xuanhuan was also a well-known figure in the Chu family. It is appropriate for him to take care of the Chu family's network in the capital and expand the Chu family's business.

As for the position of deacon and elder of Baiyuan Garden, the Chu family selected a highly respected fighting general from the ancestral hall.

The capital of Jiangnan Kingdom is called Yuancheng, which is about 600 miles southwest of Uli City.

Chu Haoren and his party walked non-stop for about ten days and finally arrived at Yuancheng.

Yuancheng is the capital of Jiangnan Kingdom. Although its name is not grand, Yuancheng is five or six times larger than Uli City. The city walls are towering and heavily guarded. The streets in the city are busy with traffic. The shops and buildings on both sides are tall and elegant.

The pedestrians on the road are also different from those in Uli City. There are obviously more other races. Barbarians, elves, and demons are very common. The most common ones are groups of majestic and high-spirited mercenary groups whizzing past, and nobles riding on them. The car, accompanied by beauties, and surrounded by several handsome guards, swaggered through the city, attracting many envious glances.

This Yuan City is indeed more spectacular than Uli City. It has the style of a country center and is several times more prosperous.

Chu Xuanhuan told the Chu family not to cause trouble, and after leading them into the city in a low-key manner, they successfully found the Chu family's flower shop.

After resting for a day, Chu Xuanhuan took Chu Haoren to the Jingjing Pavilion.

The Jingjing Pavilion is quite famous in Yuan City. It was established by the Lin family of the royal family. It is specially provided for the Dou Qi masters in Yuan City to use for competitions. In addition, many courtyard secret rooms, large and small, have been built for the Dou Qi masters of Jiangnan Kingdom to practice quietly. Of course, regardless of Whether it is to compete or practice, the conditions are definitely not something ordinary people can meet.

This is a place exclusive to Dou Qi masters, insulated from ordinary people.

Since Yuancheng is the capital of Jiangnan Kingdom and has a population of nearly one million, there are several competitions in the Arena almost every day, ranging from powerful generals to ordinary fighters. As long as there is a grudge between the two sides, everyone will Public duels can be held here.

Another advantage of public duels here is that there will be a gambling game for every duel. The upper class are very keen on this kind of gambling battle. They will place bets before the duel, and the winner can draw a certain amount of gambling money as a reward.

Many people have won huge sums of money from the Sports Pavilion through gambling battles.

When Chu Haoren and Chu Xuanhuan rushed to the Arena Pavilion, a duel was being held in the Arena Pavilion, and the lively and noisy shouts could be heard outside the gate.

"The capital of the country is the capital of the country. There is everyone here, and it is a lot more lively. It would be great if one day our Chu family could really establish a foothold here."

Listening to the shouts coming from inside, Chu Xuanhuan couldn't help but yearn for it with joy, and sighed.

Chu Haoren smiled and said: "There will be such a day."

"Haha, I hope so!" Chu Xuanhuan smiled, walked up to the guard of the Athletic Pavilion, and took out the certificate that Chu Haoren came to the capital to study.

The guard glanced at the voucher and said indifferently: "After entering, turn right and see a sign that says Secret Courtyard. However, he can only be allowed in alone."

The two of them were slightly startled, and then they both felt relieved. With their parents accompanying them, this was nothing to learn.

Chu Haoren smiled and said: "Elder, please go back!"

"Then be careful. If anything happens, ask someone to go to the flower shop and let them know."

Chu Haoren nodded in agreement. After separating from Chu Xuanhuan, he entered the arena and turned right as the guard said. The left turn was to go to the competition venue. There were very few people on the right turn and he could hardly see anyone. After walking for a while Later, Chu Haoren finally saw the word "Secret Courtyard" written on the door plaque of a courtyard.

"Are you Chu Haoren from Wuli City?"

Before Chu Haoren could take the initiative to ask, a tall man in green clothes standing at the door of the secret courtyard asked.

Judging from the aura of this big man in green, he should be a first-grade fighting master. Chu Haoren nodded lightly, "Not bad."

Lin Nan must have sent his image here, so this man in green clothes recognized it at a glance.

The big man in green looked him up and down, shook his head mockingly and muttered: "A fighting spirit master from the small city of Uli has quite a big air. People from the other thirty-six cities have already arrived, and you are the latest." , these are the rules for retreat in the secret courtyard, go in and find your own courtyard to live in, and when you hear the bell at noon, go to the central building, and His Majesty will send someone to meet you personally!"

There was no set time for this, it was entirely based on personal arrangements. Chu Haoren thought he had arrived early enough, but he didn't expect that everyone from other cities had arrived.

Will King Lin Feng send someone to meet him? This was beyond Chu Haoren's expectation.

He quickly took the book of meditation rules and quickly entered the secret courtyard.

The inside of the secret courtyard is completely different from the outside.

Starting from the door is a straight and wide avenue, more than three hundred meters long, with a majestic five-story building standing in the center, which is the central building of the secret courtyard.

On both sides of the straight avenue, there are small courtyards with blue bricks and black tiles. There is a wooden sign hanging on the door of the courtyard, which says the city from which they come and their name.

"Tianyuan City, He Xin."

"Xicheng, Zhong Lan."

……

Chu Haoren looked all the way, and after passing more than a dozen courtyards, he finally found a sign saying 'Wuli City, Chu Haoren' hanging at the door of one courtyard.

Pushing the door open and entering, the small courtyard is very clean, with various living facilities such as bedrooms and living rooms complete, as well as a dedicated meditation room.

Chu Haoren put down his luggage, looked at the environment, and then flipped through the meditation rules.

This quiet practice code is also very simple. You usually practice in the secret courtyard, and practice fighting qi in the quiet room of each small courtyard. If you want to practice fighting skills, you can do it in your own courtyard, or you can go to the training ground on the second floor of the central building. Three times a day Meals are provided by the Secret Courtyard for free. You can eat at the restaurant in the central building or have them delivered to the courtyard.

If you want to leave the secret courtyard, you can tell the guard at the door, but you are not allowed to leave without saying goodbye.
