Chapter 255 The Great Disaster is Coming
After a while, the guards brought an iron cage covered with talismans.
Inside, there were several shivering young foxes.
"Fragrant foxes?"
Su Zhi: "Yes, these little guys are valuable. They have been living deep in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range before, which makes them very rare in the market..."
Fragrant foxes can emit a fragrance. They are timid, docile, and not very aggressive. They are very popular among female cultivators. In addition, they are rare and valuable.
Jiang Lan finally understood why they were kept alive. After all, living fragrant foxes are valuable.
He tried to comfort them and ease their inner fear, so that he could get useful information.
Wearing the title of "Chief of All Spirits", he has a blessing of affinity for all living things.
As expected, the fragrant foxes seemed to have found a backer among the crowd.
One by one, they rushed to Jiang Lan's side impatiently.
Jiang Lan gestured to open the cage, and the little fragrant foxes gathered around him, rubbing Jiang Lan's trouser legs, very sticky.
"Huo, Lan is really good!"
Su Zhi, who was standing by, also squatted down, intending to reach out and touch these furry little guys.
As a result, when he came, the foxes all shrank behind Jiang Lan, with fear in their eyes.
Su Zhi paused and could only change the direction of his outstretched hand, touched his head, and stood up with an embarrassed look.
Jiang Lan looked amused, then took out some food, put it in his palm, and handed it over.
In this way, try to make them relax.
After it was almost done, he tried to ask some questions.
The fox was only at the initial stage of the first level, and its intelligence was not high, so it could only vaguely describe some things.
"Branches grew on its body... its eyes were red... it was very irritable... it attacked randomly..."
Jiang Lan chewed on the questions asked by the little fox, and turned to look at Su Zhi.
"Old Su, do you know what's going on?"
Su Zhi, who was standing by, also touched his chin and thought, "I don't know... it sounds like a violent plague..."
Seeing this, Jiang Lan decided to collect more information.
"Old Su, I need more monsters of higher levels. Maybe they will know something..."
"Let's do this. Xiaoyao Pavilion will issue a task to capture monsters alive and send them to Xiaoyao Pavilion. I will buy them in full."
"By the way, can I take these foxes away directly? Here are the spirit stones."
Jiang Lan took out a storage bag and handed it over.
This group of foxes has already stuck to Jiang Lan's feet and won't leave. Jiang Lan can't be cruel and lock them up again.
Especially when they are wearing titles and their affinity is increased.
If they are locked up again, it would be like a scumbag who cheats on the feelings, achieves the goal, and then crosses the river and destroys the bridge...
He can't do such a thing.
Through the communication just now, this group of little foxes can be regarded as pitiful. They originally lived well in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, but encountered such a big change, so they could only escape, and ended up running into the hands of the human race.
If it weren't for the fact that their tribe is more valuable alive than dead, they probably wouldn't have survived until now...
"No problem, we're going to sell it anyway, so we don't have to look for sellers."
Su Zhi took the storage bag and put it away without even looking at it, showing his trust in Jiang Lan.
After saying goodbye to Su Zhi, Jiang Lan used his magic power to roll up the little foxes and flew towards Xiaoyao Pavilion.
He told Xu Xin about the arrangements for the future and continued his own business.
Time returned to normal. This time, the beast tide calmed down quickly because it did not cause any substantial harm.
However, for the time being, some low-level cultivators dared not enter the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.
All those who went there basically didn't come back.
And this situation has the greatest impact on Qianyefang City!
Without the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, the most important source of income and new resources.
The business that was just booming because of the auction came to an abrupt halt and began to decline.
The same is true for the flow of people.
This resulted in merchants not being able to make money, and cultivators who were trying to make a living had no work...
Jiang Lan's Xiaoyao Pavilion continued to receive commissions from live monsters, which became the only way for many cultivators to earn money.
Seeing this, Jiang Lan took the opportunity to launch an activity of exchanging monsters for cultivation elixirs.
On top of this, the enthusiasm of the cultivators was pushed to a climax.
For Jiang Lan, cultivation elixirs are cheaper and have lower costs.
After all, Jiang Lan's current cultivation level no longer requires the two elixirs, and this large amount of elixir liquid is just used to offset the purchase price of the monsters.
In this way, a month has passed, and Jiang Lan's place is almost becoming a zoo.
There are all kinds of monsters, and there are even natural enemies who don't like each other.
However, fortunately, Jiang Lan has the title of "Chief of All Spirits", and his affinity makes the monsters willing to obey Jiang Lan's command.
And "dignity" can make the monsters obedient and suppress those monsters with more violent temperaments.
They were contracted by Jiang Lan one by one and collected in the "Ten Thousand Spirits Scroll".
Until this moment, the "Painting Scroll of Ten Thousand Spirits" has taken shape.
And through communication with them, Jiang Lan has some new clues.
"I didn't expect that this matter is actually related to the human race..."
That's right, according to some escaped monsters, some humans are spreading a terrible thing.
These things will make the monsters violent, but they are controllable!
"A special puppet technique?"
According to the description, it does look like the art of living puppets, which forcibly turns living beings into puppets.
This kind of secret art is generally regarded as the magic way, and the magic way has not appeared in the East China Sea for a long time.
"I don't know where this group of people came from?"
"Is it the other side of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range?"
"But there are countless monsters in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range. It is rumored that there are third-level monster kings and even fourth-level transformed monster kings!"
"Let's do some divination..."
The more clues collected in the way of divination, the more accurate the observation of the future will be...
And after years of use and training, divination has also been successfully upgraded.
[Divination]: First-level minor success (58%)
Branch ability: [Accuracy +10%]

Jiang Lan looked at the hexagram hexagram, his face was very ugly.
The hexagram shows: very bad.
Whether it is for myself or for the land of the three sects...
"Could it be that someone wants to use these monsters to overthrow the land of the three sects?"
"Is this the 'great catastrophe' that the headmaster said?"
"But if that's all, just run away? Is there any other arrangement?"
"What is the hidden hand that can't be escaped without being removed?"
"I don't feel anything strange in my body..."
"Damn, the methods of this world of immortal cultivation are troublesome. If it's a disease in the mortal world, I can 'identify' it..."
"It seems that in this world of immortal cultivation, there is a chance, and I need to pick up the medical skills again..."
If there is a chance later, he plans to pay attention to the inheritance of the skill of 'spiritual medicine'.
Unfortunately, there is almost no inheritance in the East China Sea, and it only appears occasionally in some books such as travel notes.
"But no matter what, let's inform them of this matter first, so that they can be prepared."
So, in the next few days, Jiang Lan informed Su Zhi and Xin Yirou of the information he got.
One of them went to report to the real person, and the other sent a message back to the sect, asking them to be careful.
Jiang Lan also contacted He Xiaomi, who was far away in Xiaoyao Sect, through the "Wanli Sound Transmission Mirror".
Xiaoyao Sect will let He Xiaomi convey the message...
