Although Xia Zihang and Liu Zihao both thought Lin Hao was just a fool who gave up the villa for nothing, he was very despised of him.

But after all, it was the God of Wealth coming, so when Lin Hao walked in front of them, they still had a smile on their faces to express their welcome.

"My master has been waiting for a long time."

"Please come in quickly!"

The two of them stood on both sides, stretched out one palm each and made a gesture of inviting them to the gate.

Lin Hao nodded slightly and was about to walk in when Ximen Qingqing suddenly rushed in front of him.

"Thank you for your hard work, thank you for your hard work..."

The fat man said with a laugh, then took out two big red envelopes and stuffed them into the hands of Xia Zihang and Liu Zihao.

He looked cute and looked like a boy with money.

Xia Zihang and Liu Zihao, who were wearing a buttoned jacket, didn't realize what was going on.

Looking at the big red envelope in hand, both of them were stunned.

Just as Ximen Qingqing was stepping into the gate, Xia Zihang suddenly grabbed his shoulder.

He asked with some displeasure: "What does it mean to give us a red envelope?"

Liu Zihao's expression also darkened and he said coldly: "Do you treat us as three-year-old children? Who cares about your red envelope?"

Because in Kyoto, only during festivals will the elders send red envelopes to the younger generation, so they feel that Ximen Qingqing is taking advantage of them.

Ximen Qingqing looked puzzled: "Aren't you the doormen here?"

Liu Zihao said unhappily: "Who told you that we are disciples? We are the disciples of Master Yi Tuoyi and the most promising young alchemist in the Kyoto Alchemist Guild."

“Oh oh oh…”

Ximen Qingqing looked like he suddenly realized.

Then he patted Liu Zihao on the shoulder and said indifferently: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. There is no reason to take back the red envelopes you sent out. Anyway, there is not much money, so you can buy a piece of clothes to wear."

Then he walked into the gate of the Alchemist Guild without caring about the other party's reaction.

Xia Zihang and Liu Zihao were speechless and threw the red envelope directly on the ground, then walked to the front to lead the way.

Lin Hao, Luo Baisheng and others followed behind. After they all walked in, the two guild guards closed the door.

The two guards stood seriously for nearly three minutes, but their heads were still expressionless and raised their chests.

When they were sure that no one came out and no one passed by, their eyes looked at the two red envelopes on the ground in a silence.

One of the guards quickly picked up a red envelope, and the other guards quickly picked up the remaining red envelope.

They looked at each other tacitly, then opened the red envelope and looked inside.

When they found a stack of red banknotes, their heartbeats suddenly accelerated and their breathing became rapid.

After looking around, he made sure that there was no one around, and the two guards took out the banknotes and counted them, which totaled 1,200 yuan.

It’s not too much, but this is a waste of money after all, and it’s at least enough to pay the family’s water and electricity bill for a quarter.

So both of these guards were very excited.

...

In the living room of the Alchemist Guild.

Xia Zihang received Lin Hao and others as a seat, and then said, "You wait a moment, I will inform the master now."

Although they seem to be very polite, they all have a hint of pride in their tone and expression.

The Alchemist Guild hired many servants, and immediately someone brought tea, melon seeds and peanuts and other snacks to entertain Lin Hao and the others.

The tables, chairs and benches are all antique mahogany furniture. The portrait of Laojun is hung at the bottom, and there is a couplet on both sides of the portrait.

The reason why it is said to be a couplet is mainly because there are fourteen large golden characters engraved on two black plaques.

The two plaques stand on both sides of the portrait, with equal words, and indeed look like a couplet.

But when Ximen Qingqing, Luo Paisheng, Xiao Tianci and others saw this couplet, their faces showed confusion.

Especially Ximen Qingqing, his eyes widened, as if he had seen something strange.

In the end, he couldn't help but be curious and humbly asked Lin Hao for advice: "Brother Lin, what is it written on it?"

The fourteen words carved on the two plaques seem to recognize them at first glance.

For example, the first character [王] in the first couplet is composed of body and treasure; the first character [王] in the second couplet is composed of Zheng and Qing.

But when these words are combined, it makes people confused, as if they are wordless.

Lin Hao glanced at it and said lightly: "It is said that the jade furnace refines the medicine for prolonging life, and the righteous way to practice the Pill of Longevity."

"The jade furnace refines the medicine for prolonging life, and practices the right way to cultivate the longevity pill?"

Ximen Qingqing murmured and looked at the two black plaques again, frowned.

He suspected that Lin Hao was lying to him because the words Lin Hao said were very different from the fourteen words on the plaque.

At this time, a laugh suddenly came from outside, and a white-haired old man wearing a long buttoned gown walked in.

He bowed to Lin Hao and said politely: "I didn't expect that someone would recognize this couplet. I wonder if the sir's honor of his surname?"

Lin Hao stood up and returned the greeting, and smiled and said, "My surname is Lin."

"So it's Mr. Lin, I have long admired him!"

The old man laughed, but Ximen Qingqing on the other side showed contempt.

Because he saw that the old man and Lin Hao had never met before, and he didn't even know each other, but he still said that he had been long and long, wasn't this nonsense?

The old man introduced himself: "I am Guo Hansong, the president of the Alchemist Guild. I don't know that Mr. Lin is here to..."

Lin Hao said: "I came here today and asked Master Yi Tuoyi to compete in the trial medicine technique."

Hearing Lin Hao say this, Guo Hansong's face suddenly looked surprised, and he couldn't help but look at Lin Hao carefully.

"Vice President Yi has been practicing the art of alchemy for more than 40 years. Judging from Mr. Lin's age, I'm afraid..."

Although Guo Hansong did not finish his words, his meaning was already very obvious. He thought that Lin Hao and Yi Tuo were simply humiliating himself to compete with the skills of practicing medicine.

Lin Hao laughed and said, "There is no order of learning, and those who are good at learning are the teachers. Moreover, I just compete with Master Yi with the attitude of learning. The victory or defeat is not important."

Guo Hansong really believed Lin Hao's humble words and nodded lightly.

"So that's it, so that's it!"

At this time, Ximen Qingqing took out his cell phone, turned on the camera, and took a photo with a click toward Laojun's portrait and the couplet next to him.

It seems that I want to keep it and slowly confirm it later, whether what Lin Hao said is true or false.

"I wonder if Mr. Lin knows, where does this couplet come from?"

Guo Hansong asked Lin Hao, with an unfathomable look in his eyes, just like a teacher questioning students.

Lin Hao smiled faintly and said, "This is the law of alchemist practice. Although it only has fourteen words, it shows the infinite mysteries of cultivation methods of alchemy."

These are recorded in the Medical Medicine Pharmacopoeia, and Lin Hao has long memorized them and has already understood the profound meaning and mystery.

He continued: "Laojun has studied the art of refining medicine and the way of the universe and nature. He created these fourteen characters with specific meanings according to the Taoist meaning and the ideology method in the six books."

Speaking of this, Lin Hao paused for a moment, then pointed to a word in the couplet.

"For example, the word 'medicine' in the refining medicine is composed of the three words 'self, home, and water' in this couplet, which refers to the body fluid produced by the human body itself, which is the source of the third-grade medicine."

When Guo Hansong heard Lin Hao speak with great sarcasm, he was immediately disappointed.

He just asked such a question on purpose, and originally thought that Lin Hao would definitely not be able to answer it, so that he could show off his knowledge.

But unexpectedly, Lin Hao didn't give him this opportunity at all.

However, on the surface, Guo Hansong still nodded and praised.

"Mr. Lin is very knowledgeable, which is really admirable."

At this time, Yi Tuo and his two apprentices walked in.

Seeing Lin Hao and Guo Hansong having a happy conversation, Yi Tuo was immediately surprised.

However, he was not so polite to Lin Hao, and even had a little contempt and disdain in his eyes.

"Mr. Lin, are you really ready to compete with me?"
