Chapter 3319 Qilin Powder

A few times when he left the small courtyard, Su Chen vaguely heard some rumors, which seemed to be "the son of a humble servant" and "a humble background".

Zhang Wei did not hide anything, saying: "Although I am the son of the head of the Zhang family, my mother is just a slave bought from the slave market. Therefore, they feel that I am not worthy of being this young master."

"Many heartbreaking rumors just start from jealousy."

Su Chen smiled lightly and said.

Zhang Wei was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart that this young man seemed to be a few years older than himself, but he had such a profound understanding of the world.

With these words as the basis for friendship, Zhang Wei ran to Su Chen's courtyard more and more frequently. Gradually, Su Chen also discovered that this thin-looking young man was actually a talented alchemist.

In this way, Su Chen also became somewhat interested and gave Zhang Wei some pointers on the alchemy path.

Zhang Wei also admired Su Chen more and more. In his opinion, although Su Chen was young, his attainments in alchemy were not inferior to those well-known alchemy masters in the inner city.

Su Chen also learned from Zhang Wei that Zhang Mian was also the son of the head of the Zhang family. However, unlike the sons born to slaves such as Zhang Wei, Zhang Mian was the son with the highest family background and the most attention among all the sons.

This time, Zhang Mian was ordered by the head of the family to take people out to do something. He didn't know when he would come back.

The status of the Zhang family can be regarded as one of the first echelon families in the inner city. However, on top of these families, there are twenty-five Jinying aristocratic families, and above the twenty-five Jinying aristocratic families, there are five city lords.

Although the Zhang family is not as good as those twenty-five Jinying families, it is still compared to

In this way, Su Chen waited at Zhang's house for a month and finally received the news that Zhang Mian was back.

Zhang Wei had promised before that when Zhang Mian came back, he would inform Su Chen as soon as possible. However, Su Chen waited for a full day, but there was no news.

Su Chen knew that it was definitely not because Zhang Wei didn't inform him, but because he didn't know what was delaying him. At the moment, I kept calm and continued to wait.

On the third day, Zhang Wei finally showed up and asked Su Chen to go with him to see Zhang Mian.

Zhang Mian's courtyard is at the core of the Zhang family's mansion. Su Chen, led by Zhang Wei, entered the yard and came to the house.

When he entered the room, he saw a young man reclining on a chair. The young man's face is somewhat similar to Zhang Wei's, but he is much more heroic.

However, at this moment, the young man's face looked particularly bad, and his body seemed to be very weak. He was leaning forward and looking at Su Chen.

"Brother Mian, this is the brother Su Chen I told you."

Zhang Wei introduced, "Brother Su Chen, this is my brother Zhang Mian."

"I heard you have a letter for me?"

Zhang Mian said in a hoarse voice.

Su Chen took out the letter, and an attendant immediately came forward to take it and handed it to Zhang Mian.

Zhang Mian took it and read it, nodded and said: "That's it."

He raised his head and looked at Su Chen and said, "Brother Lang is my old friend. I owed him a favor a few years ago. Now he has entrusted you to me. You can stay here as long as you want." If anyone talks nonsense, just give me my name.”

As expected of the powerful eldest young master of the Zhang family, he speaks loud and clear. However, there was still a sense of weakness in that voice.

"Brother Mian, your body..."

Zhang Wei asked worriedly.

"It's okay. I accidentally contracted the epidemic while I was out. I'll be fine in a few days."

Zhang Mian waved his hand and said reluctantly.

Su Chen and Zhang Wei looked at each other. With their alchemy skills, they couldn't tell that Zhang Mian's symptoms didn't look like he was infected with the epidemic at all, but like... he was poisoned!

"Brother Mian, you have been good to me since I was a child. Others despise my identity, but you are the only one who can say a few words to me."

Zhang Weidao said, "Seeing that you are not feeling well, I am also very anxious. Let me take your pulse."

"you?"

Zhang Mian raised his head and looked at this young brother.

In fact, when he came back this time, due to health issues, he did not make a big fanfare and almost entered the mansion quietly. The reason why he didn't see Su Chen in the past two days was because he had been sending people everywhere to ask alchemy experts in the inner city to treat him.

Those alchemy experts couldn't do anything. How could my younger brother, who was only a teenager, do it?

"Brother Mian, don't hide it from me. I know you were poisoned. What you were given was Qilin Powder. If you detoxify it in time, you can still recover quickly."

Zhang Wei was looked at with suspicion by Zhang Mian, and he quickly spoke.

It was a coincidence that Su Chen once told him about Qilin Powder, a strange poison in the world, and he also learned it carefully. Otherwise, I may not be able to name this poison today.

"Do you know this is Qilin Powder?"

As expected, Zhang Mian's expression changed and he asked unexpectedly.

"not only
