Chapter 104 The right to control the Black Crow Flame and Bone Corrosion

"Is this the yellow-level low-grade beast fire and black crow flame?"

Under the stone pavilion.

Luo Changfeng looked at the group of dark black flames that seemed to have spirituality and were constantly beating in front of him.

He couldn't help but silently stretched out his right hand.

As an alchemist, he is also a low-grade yellow-level alchemist.

If he is lucky, he can also refine a yellow-level middle-grade elixir.

Naturally, he knew how to recognize the owner of spiritual fire and animal fire.

He wanted to make the yellow-level low-grade beast fire Black Crow Flame recognize him as his master, and he wanted to completely control this bunch of beast fire born from the body of the demon beast flame Black Crow.

The first thing you need to do is to calm down and concentrate.

He established a connection that only belonged to the two of them with the yellow-level inferior beast fire-grade Black Crow Flame in front of him.

This process is very critical.

Only after reaching this step can you continue with the next operation.

If you can't even accomplish this step

Then, it is almost impossible for you to make this yellow-level low-grade beast fire and black crow flame recognize its master in a short period of time.

“This step of establishing a connection does not seem to be as difficult as I thought.”

Closing his eyes, Luo Changfeng placed his right hand on top of the yellow-level low-grade after-sales black crow flame.

Until, this action continued for about three minutes.

He opened his eyes again.

Moreover, the blood and energy cage that trapped Black Crow Flame was released.

"Brother Luo, are you ready???"

Looking at Luo Changfeng in front of him, he looked at the yellow-level low-grade beast fire Black Crow Flame who seemed to be gradually calming down.

Fu Qiu is the current head of the Luoshan Mansion branch of the Wandan Sect.

At this time, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

A bit of shock flashed in his eyes.

He knew Brother Luo's talent for alchemy.

He looked at people and never missed them.

However, what he didn't expect was that

It only took a short time for Luo Changfeng to establish contact with the low-grade yellow-level beast fire, Black Crow Flame.

This is ridiculous, isn’t it a bit outrageous?

As far as Fu Qiu knew, even the talented alchemists from Wandan Sect's main sect wanted to successfully establish a connection with beast fire or spiritual fire.

It will take at least half an hour.

"It's done."

Luo Changfeng nodded silently, and then he waved his hand, summoning the handful of low-grade yellow-level black crow flames into the palm of his hand, and whispered: "This step of establishing contact with the black crow flames is much faster than I thought it was even simpler.”

Luo Changfeng's voice was quite calm.

His face and expression remained calm and unchanged.

However, after hearing these words.

Fu Qiu's eyes twitched slightly, and there were countless curse words in his heart that he didn't know whether to say or not.

"Since Brother Luo has successfully established a connection with the Black Crow Flame."

"Then it's time for me to leave."

As he spoke, Fu Qiu stood up silently.

And just when he was about to leave this small courtyard.

He seemed to have remembered something. After his departure was slow for a moment, he turned around and said to Luo Changfeng behind him: "Brother Luo, there is one more thing. I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"Brother Fu, just tell me."

Luo Changfeng lowered his head and played with the handful of yellow-level low-grade beast fire and black crow flame in his hand, while whispering to Fu Qiu in front of him.

"The material inventory of the new version of Epiphyllum Epiphyllum developed by Brother Luo is about to be exhausted."

Luo Changfeng suddenly raised his head, looked at Fu Qiu in front of him with some surprise and asked: "Are the materials for the new version of Epiphyllum Epiphyllum almost exhausted?"

Fu Qiu nodded silently: "Originally, the inventory of materials was not very tight, but since other branch sects began to collect the refining materials for the new version of the Epiphyllum Pill, the number of materials for the new version of the Epiphyllum Pill has dropped sharply, so"

As he spoke, Fu Qiu became somewhat silent.

The Wandan Sect is an extremely large and complex organizational force.

Even the main sect of Wandan Sect.

There are countless factions.

In this case, let alone the Wandan Sect branch, which is more competitive.

You must know the ranking of the Wandan Sect branches.

It almost means the amount of resources that the Wandan Sect branches can enjoy.

Moreover, the ranking of Wandan Sect branch is higher.

The more benefits you can enjoy.

Don't look at it. Many times, all branches of Wandan Sect seem to be very harmonious.

But in fact, many branch sects are secretly competing with each other.

No branch of the Wandan Sect is willing to watch another branch of the Wandan Sect just shitting and peeing on top of their head.

After Luo Changfeng and Fu Qiu chatted for some time.

Fu Qiu then left this small courtyard.

At this time, in the Luo family's land, in the courtyard of the Luo family's ancestors.

Under a rather shady stone pavilion.

Luo Changfeng was the only one left.

And, the black flame floating in the void beside him jumped from time to time, as if it was a spiritual yellow-level low-grade beast fire, the black crow flame.

"If you say so"

"This matter is indeed a difficult problem."

"Without materials, no matter how good your skills are or how superb your abilities are, you won't be able to earn a large amount of spiritual stones quickly."

After Luo Changfeng murmured in a low voice.

He couldn't help but sigh slightly.

In the final analysis, the status of his Luoshan Mansion branch was too low.

Regardless of the supply of materials.

Or in terms of resources, benefits, etc.

The main sect of Wandan Sect will always provide supplies to branch sects that are stronger and ranked higher.

Those with weaker overall strength are ranked lower.

A branch sect that cannot provide much income to the main sect of Wandan sect.

It doesn't have much status or rights.

"It seems that it is imperative to improve the ranking of the Luoshan Mansion branch."

"It's the assessment and judgment from the Wandan Sect Master."

"It only happens about once a year."

"That is to say, if you want to change the ranking of the Luoshan Prefecture branch, you will have to wait at least ten months."

There is no way to improve the ranking of the Luoshan Mansion branch in a short period of time.

In desperation, Luo Changfeng could only continue to increase his intimacy with the black crow flame that was constantly circling around him.

And only this level of intimacy has been raised to a certain level.

Able to make Black Crow Flame obey his orders.

And reached the state of being able to command like an arm.

Only then was he able to use the Black Crow Flame to perform a series of actions such as alchemy and weapon refining.

Time flies by like a white horse.

In the blink of an eye, about half a month has passed.

Within this half month.

The situation in Gale Dynasty gradually became more and more chaotic.

The number of refugees is increasing day by day.

The number of bandits continues to expand.

Fights between families happen all the time.

Even within Luoshan Mansion, the battle between forces is still extremely fierce.

Even in Huaishui County where the situation is slightly better.

At this time, all forces are still in an undercurrent stage.

Regardless of the fact that at this moment, the Chen family, the Tang family, the Huaishui King, and the Luo family were all in peace with each other.

They are all focusing on developing their own strength.

But if there is a chance, the other forces will naturally send troops directly to annihilate the other forces in one fell swoop.

Then, take the entire territory of Huaishui County.

Outside Qingshi Town, there are countless reclaimed farmlands.

At this time, Luo Chuan, who is the young master of the Luo family.

He was walking forward silently.

Behind him was Hu Min, the former young master of the Hu family.

Then he followed Luo Chuan.

"The situation seems worse than I imagined"

Luochuan raised his head slightly.

He glanced at the scorching sun hanging high above his head.

Feeling the astonishing heat waves coming from all directions.

Then, he looked at the unsightly crop seedlings in the farmland that were not in good condition to begin with and were now eaten by locusts.

He couldn't help but sigh slightly.

"The water level of Huaihe River dropped rapidly within half a month."

"It's probably only ten days and a half before it dries up."

"As for the locust situation, although various controls are being carried out, the number and scale of locusts have been on the rise in the past half month."

"I even heard that large-scale locust plagues have begun to break out in two or three prefectures in the north."

"Countless crops have been eaten."

"The sky and the fields are filled with locusts."

"There are even many examples of locusts eating humans."

"Hu Min, what do you think of our Huaishui County?"

"No, it should be said that it will be the same in Luoshan Mansion where we are located?"

As Luo Chuan was talking, he suddenly asked in a low voice to Hu Min behind him, whose performance had gradually become more and more outstanding in the past half month.

"The two or three locust-infested prefectures in the north are very far away from Luoshan Prefecture where we are."

"In a short period of time, it shouldn't affect our side."

"However, if the number of locusts in farmland cannot be suppressed and the scale cannot be reduced,"

"I think the locust plague is just a matter of time."

After Hu Min pondered for a long time, he answered aloud to Luo Chuan in front of him.

"Is it a matter of time?"

Luochuan nodded silently.

Hu Min's thoughts were not much different from his.

As the water level of the Huaihe River drops, the number and scale of locusts continues to increase.

This is not a good thing for the Luo family in Qingshi Town, or even for the entire Huaishui County.

Now, although they can barely control it.

Barely able to control the current situation.

But over time, collapse will become a fait accompli.

By that time, if half or more of the mansions in the Gale Dynasty were affected by locust plagues.

This led to another reduction in food production.

In fact, she was completely extinct.

The chaos of the Gale Dynasty will definitely be far worse than at this moment.

The value of food will inevitably rise accordingly.

Don't look at it now, the Luo family has indeed established a relatively friendly relationship with the Luo family, one of the four major families in Jiangnan Prefecture, which is rich in food.

The transactions between the two parties are also continuing.

But as time went by, the locust plague became more and more serious.

As the value of food continues to rise.

Will the Luo family continue to trade food and bluestone veins with the Luo family as they do now?

Obviously, this is going to be an unknown.

The food lifeline of one big force is controlled by another force.

No matter what time it is, it won't be a good thing.

Qingshi Town, the land of the Luo family.

In the room where the head of the Luo family is.

Luo Ping is the current head of the Luo family.

At this time, he was sitting quietly on the main seat, holding a brochure about the family's grain reserves and silently reading through it.

By the way, it’s worth mentioning here.

The Luo family has its own grain reserves.

This part of the food is specially provided for the use of the Luo family.

This part of the food will never be used.

The other part of the food is provided for the Luo family's army and the people.

Although this part of the food has been accumulated over this period of time.

It is much more than the reserves of previous days.

However, as the power of the family continues to expand.

As the number of troops and the number of people under his command continued to increase.

The food reserves in the hands of the Luo family gradually became less and less.

"One month's time"

"Food reserves can only last for a month at most."

"And the crops in the fields want to be harvested."

"It's going to take at least about two months."

"In the meantime, we still need to collect enough food reserves for one month."

Looking at it, Luo Ping couldn't help but have a headache.

Moreover, this is all based on the best case scenario.

The depletion of the Huai River, the emergence of the locust plague, and the stability of the Luo family's transactions with other Luo families.

He has not considered these three points yet.

If water resources are sufficient and the number and scale of locusts are successfully controlled, then that's it.

But if the Huaihe River dries up, all the water in the deep wells will be used up.

Water resources can no longer supply those crops in the fields.

And the number of locusts gradually became more and more, and even completely formed a scale.

Only then will the real disaster break out.

If that time comes, the Luo family and the other forces in Huaishui County want to survive.

The only way is to destroy the Tang family.

Get the Tang family's massive food reserves away.

In this way, the food crisis can be completely resolved.

In the room, after Luo Ping put down the note about food reserves in his hand.

He casually picked up a brand new booklet.

He opened it and read through it carefully.

But, this just opened.

Just watched it for the first time.

Luo Ping couldn't help but frowned slightly.

The contents of the folder in his hand were related to the Luo family, one of the four major families in Jiangnan Mansion.

With a feeling of anxiety, Luo Ping silently looked at the folding paper.

But the more he looked at it, the more ugly the look on Luo Ping's face became.

Until, after he read the booklet in his hand.

He threw the book in his hand heavily on the table.

From today on, the transaction between the Luo family and the Luo family is completely over.

Yes, you read that right.

Exactly what it means.

The Luo family unilaterally terminated the transaction with the Luo family.

The content above is written euphemistically.

But the actual content probably means that two or three prefectures in the north have begun to suffer from locust plagues.

The number of locusts is extremely large.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the sky is filled with locusts.

In addition, the weather has been getting hotter and hotter these days.

Grain production is expected to continue to shrink this year.

Therefore, the Luo family unilaterally and directly severed the transaction between the two parties.

Very angry.

Luo Ping was really angry.

It seems that he has been sitting quietly on this main seat all day long.

After dealing with these government affairs all day long, I never had much time to rest.

The mood in Luo Ping's heart gradually began to change.

Sometimes, he even starts to become irritable involuntarily.

Luoping wanted to control his emotions.

But many times, when he sees those bad things, he often cannot control his calm mood.

He doesn't know that this is caused by his own problem.

Or it is caused by environmental reasons.

After breaking off the transaction with the Luo family, one of the four major families in Jiangnan Mansion.

Once again, the Luo family was cut off from all sources of food.

Luo Pingping sat on the main seat in the room and meditated alone for a long time.

However, no satisfactory answer came to mind.

Then, he stood up silently.

He walked towards the courtyard where his ancestors were.

Luo Ping was a little confused.

He was really confused.

The Huaihe River is about to dry up, and the prototype of the locust plague has already appeared.

The Luo family, one of the four major families in Jiangnan Mansion, unilaterally and directly severed the transaction with the Luo family.

The friendship established before between the Luo family and the Luo family was laid on the ground and trampled on.

In two or three prefectures in the north, large-scale locust plagues even broke out directly.

Countless locusts are all over the sky.

Countless crops have been eaten up by locusts.

It is conceivable that in the next few prefectures in the north, the food production will inevitably decrease again and again.

Even complete annihilation is not impossible.

As for the several prefectures near Luoshan Prefecture, even if a large-scale locust plague has not yet broken out, they are probably not feeling well now.

Bearing so much bad news silently alone, Luo Ping really didn't know what to do.

Of course, if the Luo family is willing to give up the towns in their hands.

Just leave a bluestone town alone and sit quietly on the high platform.

Watching the three forces of Chen family, Tang family, and Huaishui Wang Fengwentai fighting with each other.

The Luo family can ignore such troubles as locust plagues, droughts, refugees, and bandits.

But now, the biggest problem is

Already sitting in seven towns, he controls hundreds of thousands or even more than 200,000 troops.

There are also millions of people in the Luo family under his command.

Are you really willing to give up everything you have in your hands so easily?

Not to mention Luo Ping, it is estimated that the vast majority of the Luo family would not be willing.

Many times, power is like poison that can corrode bones.

When you don't touch it, it's okay.

But once you come into contact with power, you have that powerful authority in your hands.

In your heart, you will be reluctant to let go of power.

In your heart, you will have endless dependence on power.

Make you give up your rights?

It's better to try your best.

If you really lose, then that's it.

The food reserves in the family are enough for the people of the Luo family to live a life without worries about food and clothing.

But what if it is finally done?
