In the fantasy world, all the people I met were beauties.

The two walked into a spacious and bright hall, which was filled with various medicine cabinets and the air was filled with a faint medicinal fragrance.

A few scattered customers were selecting medicinal herbs at the counter and chatting with the busy waiters.

"Mr. Ma, Mr. Ma, wake up."

Lu Xiaodie walked to the counter and whispered to an elderly man who was sleeping on a chair inside the counter.

"Oh, it's Miss Xiaodie who's back!"

The old man opened his slightly sleepy eyes, looked at Lu Xiaodie and said, his eyes flashing with some shrewdness and kindness.

"Mr. Ma, this is the alchemy apprentice I found for the young lady, his name is Li Zimo."

Lu Xiaodie pointed at Li Zimo next to her and said to the old man.

"Oh, Li Zimo, not bad, looks quite energetic!"

Mr. Ma looked Li Zimo up and down and said kindly.

Li Zimo quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully: "Hello, Mr. Ma, I am Li Zimo, please take care of me in the future."

Ma Lao nodded gently, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes: "Good, good. Young, energetic, polite, not bad. I believe that with your joining, our Yaoxiang Pavilion will get better and better."

"Mr. Ma, you are too kind. I will definitely work hard to learn the art of alchemy."

Li Zimo felt a warm feeling in his heart when he heard this. No matter if it was just empty talk or not, nice words always sounded good.

"Well, Xiaodie, take him to see the young lady."

As Mr. Ma spoke, he waved his hand gently, indicating that they could leave.

Hearing this, Lu Xiaodie smiled and said to Li Zimo:

"Let's go, let's go see the lady."

The two walked through the hall again and headed towards the alchemy room in the backyard.

On the way, Li Zimo couldn't help but feel curious and expectant about the Miss Lu Xueqing he was about to meet.

He imagined what kind of person this young lady who was able to teach herself and become a first-level alchemist would be.

If even a maid is so beautiful, how beautiful must I be?

As Li Zimo was thinking, he came to the alchemy room.

Lu Xiaodie walked up and knocked on the door gently.

A crisp voice came from inside the door: "Come in."

The two pushed open the door and walked into the alchemy room.

The alchemy room was filled with a faint medicinal fragrance, and some smoke produced by alchemy still lingered in the air.

A huge alchemy furnace was placed in the center of the room, and various medicinal materials and alchemy tools were piled around it.

Next to the alchemy furnace, a young woman in a light blue dress was concentrating on flipping through the alchemy book in her hand. Her figure looked particularly gentle and elegant under the soft light.

The bookish air, coupled with her fairy-like face, made Li Zimo's heart beat fast.

She is indeed a beauty!

"This is the young lady."

Lu Xiaodie said softly to Li Zimo, then took a few steps forward, took Lu Xueqing's arm and shook it, saying as if to ask for credit:

"Miss, look, this is the alchemy apprentice I found for you, Li Zimo, a lower-grade yellow-level talent, a first-level martial artist, not bad, right?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Xueqing gently put down the alchemy book in her hand, turned her gaze gently to Li Zimo, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

She looked Li Zimo up and down, her eyes filled with both scrutiny and expectation.

"Not bad! Li Zimo, welcome to join Yaoxiang Pavilion and become an alchemy apprentice."

Lu Xueqing's voice was gentle and powerful. She smiled and said to Li Zimo,

"Although the path to alchemy is difficult, as long as you are willing to work hard and study diligently, you will definitely achieve good results."

After hearing this, the heavy stone that had been weighing on Li Zimo's heart finally fell to the ground.

He bowed deeply to Lu Xueqing and said sincerely:

"Thank you, miss!"

"I will definitely cherish this opportunity and work hard to learn the art of alchemy so as not to disappoint you."

Lu Xueqing nodded slightly, indicating that Li Zimo didn't need to be so polite.

She turned to look at Lu Xiaodie, a hint of fondness flashing in her eyes:

"Xiaodie, you did a great job. The fact that you were able to find Li Zimo this time shows that you put in a lot of effort."

Hearing this, Lu Xiaodie showed a smug smile on her face. She pulled Lu Xueqing's arm and said coquettishly:

"Of course, miss. I had a hard time finding him."

"I took a liking to him at first sight at the Martial Arts Academy. I thought he would be a very good alchemy apprentice, and maybe even become an alchemist!"

Lu Xueqing smiled and shook her head, somewhat noncommittal about Lu Xiaodie's boasting.

It’s not easy to become an alchemist!

If anyone picked up from the street could become an alchemist, alchemists wouldn't be so valuable.

It was only by chance that I succeeded in refining a first-grade pill, and I am still a half-baked one now.

Lu Xueqing walked to the side, took out a thick book from the table and handed it to Li Zimo.

Said to Li Zimo very seriously:

"Li Zimo, alchemy requires not only talent but also hard work. Only by being familiar with the characteristics of each medicinal ingredient and truly understanding them can we better utilize them and refine high-quality pills."

"Take this 'Encyclopedia of Miraculous Medicines' and have a look at it first."

"It contains the characteristics and efficacy of all medicinal herbs below the sixth level. You should first familiarize yourself with the medicinal herbs below the first level. After you are familiar with them, follow me to make pills."

Li Zimo took the "Encyclopedia of Miraculous Medicines" handed to him by Lu Xueqing with both hands, his heart filled with gratitude and anticipation.

He knew that this book was undoubtedly a valuable key for him to step into the door of alchemy.

He nodded solemnly and promised:

"Thank you, Miss. I will study this book carefully and try to master the characteristics and efficacy of each herb."

Seeing this, Lu Xueqing's eyes flashed with satisfaction, and she turned to Lu Xiaodie and said:

"Xiaodie, it's getting late. Take him downstairs to rest first."

"Okay, miss!"

Lu Xiaodie said to the young lady happily, then turned around with a smile and said to Li Zimo:

"Let's go, idiot."

Li Zimo said, "Miss Xiaodie, I have a place to stay in Linyuan City."

Lu Xiaodie smiled and said:

"It's okay. We've prepared this place for you so you can read. Go take a look first. You can stay wherever you want tonight."

"Okay, let's go check it out."

Li Zimo answered as he and Lu Xiaodie walked towards the backyard.

After a while, they arrived at a square courtyard.

The yard is very large and the gate faces north.

Entering from the courtyard gate, on the right are two rows of six two-story ancient-style buildings.

Each small building occupies a large area and is separated from each other by walls, providing good privacy.

In the distance opposite the courtyard gate, there is a row of houses with wisps of smoke rising from them. It looks like a dining hall.

Li Zimo couldn't help but feel happy when he saw the spacious ancient courtyard in front of him.

I didn't expect that there was another secret behind this shop.

I never expected that the back of a store would occupy such a large area.

I finally have a place to stay.

Lu Xiaodie brought Li Zimo to the courtyard in the middle of the second row and said to Li Zimo with a blushing face:

"Idiot, you live in this building."

"This was originally the courtyard of the alchemist. It's quite spacious and no one else lives there, so it's a bargain for you."

"There's a place to take a shower in the backyard, and there are some clothes prepared in the room for you to wear."

"After you've washed up, go to the dining hall in the back to eat."

"I still have to go get some food for the young lady, so I won't go in with you."

After Lu Xiaodie finished speaking, without waiting for Li Zimo's answer, she hurriedly walked along the path next to the courtyard, skipping and jumping towards the dining hall at the back.

Li Zimo smiled and saw that Lu Xiaodie had disappeared around the corner, so he walked forward, opened the gate, and walked into the small building.

This two-story building is not only decorated with carved beams and painted buildings on the outside, but also looks simple and elegant.

The interior of the room is also unique and full of secrets.

When you open the door, you will see a living room that is neither too big nor too small. There is a wooden staircase on the left. Looking up, you will see a suspended corridor on the second floor and rows of rooms.

It is exactly the same as the villa in my previous life.

Li Zimo smiled slightly, put the "Encyclopedia of Miraculous Medicines" in the room, then left the courtyard, left the Medicine Fragrance Pavilion, and walked towards his predecessor's home.
