It’s too difficult to cultivate monsters, so I’ll just farm monsters.

Chapter 81 Digestion within the team, the secret room of the cave

A spiritual snake that almost turned into a dragon!
Chen Xiaoyu and the other three took a long breath.

Qiqi came closer and noticed a short horn on the big snake's head.

Jiang Xun then spoke.

"Wei Yang, you should have been right beforehand. The underground cave was a cave for practitioners in ancient times. This big snake is familiar with human speech and can understand the Kyushu language. Not surprisingly, it was raised by others and trapped here."

Zhu Weiyang nodded and looked at the passage inside the corner.

"Brother Xun, haven't you gone in to take a look?"

"There's no rush inside. We'll wait until this big guy absorbs the Qi-Building Pill and recovers. Then we'll ask him to lead the way."

Jiang Xun said something and said.

"If the cave's past owner left anything behind, it should also know its specific location."

Hearing this, the three people's eyes lit up.

Then Tang Long spoke thoughtfully.

"But with this guy here, we don't seem to have to count on the existence of elixirs or spiritual objects."

"The existence of the cultivation civilization in the past cannot be shorter than this year. As Jiang Xun just said, this big guy's realm must have fallen, otherwise it would not be alive today."

"No matter what, it has at least gone through the stage of being able to live without food in the five realms. According to modern clinical data, after we practice living without food, we can live for up to 50 years without eating by simply relying on breathing and refining qi. After that, if we don't eat, our body's vitality will be damaged, and it can seriously lead to The body is ruined."

"The time that a spiritual beast can sustain should be much longer than that of our human cultivators, but it is not that outrageous. This big guy can survive to this day, in addition to sacrificing his origin, it is indispensable to supplement it with some elixirs or spiritual objects in the cave. vitality."

After telling the story, Tang Long couldn't help but feel regretful.

"It's a pity that this guy has almost been starved to death, otherwise its value would be much higher than that of regular heaven and earth spirit beasts."

"That's the truth, but it doesn't mean it can't be made up for."

Chen Xiaoyu answered and said.

"As long as it is filled with enough spiritual objects to replenish its vitality, its physical recovery will not be difficult. The difficulty is that it cannot recover naturally from the fallen state. If it wants to recover to the level where it will turn into a dragon, it will probably have to rebuild for many years. . Before that, it was just an ordinary spiritual snake."

"No matter how ordinary it is, it is still a heaven and earth spirit beast, and it is still an adult in the four realms. If you take it back to the real world market, you should be able to sell it for a lot of money."

Jiang Xun shrugged, turned to look at the big snake who was slowly recovering his breath, and looked back with a smile.

"It's a rare beast of heaven and earth, are you three interested?"

Ok?
Chen Xiaoyu blinked, not expecting Jiang Xun to propose "digestion within the team."

Looking at the big snake who was dying but undoubtedly had great potential, she waved her tail uncontrollably, but finally chose to give up.

"I'll forget it. It's okay to spend money to raise this big guy back, but in the meantime, I have to spend energy and take good care of it. I have work in the Super Management Committee and the War Readiness Department, so I don't have that much free time."

Tang Long looked sideways.

Good guy.

Spending money is nothing, this is another rich woman!
But think about it.

No matter how bad a person is, he is a half-demon, and he may not know what level his parents are.

The higher the realm, the more money you make, which is reasonable.

Just as he was thinking about it, Zhu Weiyang also expressed his stance.

"Forget it, the four realms of heaven and earth spirit beasts are very fragrant, but I can't stand reptiles physically. If it's a bird like Xiaobai, I don't mind paying [-] or [-] to get it."

As she spoke, she looked over.

"Brother Long, why don't you think about it? Take this big guy back and raise it for three to five months. When its body energy recovers, it can be a helper in the four realms. It can be a huge guarantee for you as an array master."

Tang Long was silent, and then made a faint sound.

"You, Brother Long, look like you are rich enough to afford such a thing?"

Zhu Weiyang burst out laughing when faced with the standard speech from "households in need".

"We are all our own people, so it doesn't matter if we take credit. Anyway, I, Brother Xun and Xiao Yu are all good at this."

"..."

Tang Long.

I'm really sorry for being the only "difficult person" in the team.

But he had to admit it.

Zhu Weiyang's proposal is quite tempting.

Just as he was hesitating, Jiang Xun spoke.

"Brother Long, if you are interested, just take it. No need to pay on credit."

"You are the main force of the team this time. Without you, we have no way to get the ruins ban. Regardless of other income, you can get [-]% of this snake. If you have spare money, we can give each of us [-] points. If you don't have it, that's fine. Use the harvest later to offset it."

Hearing this, Tang Long was a little moved.

With [-] points, you can win a four-level world spirit beast, even if it appears in this world like a big snake, you don’t even have to think about it.

If you take it, you will earn it!

But like this.

Jiang Xun and the others were at a bit of a loss...

While he was struggling, Jiang Xun spoke up again.

"Brother Long, you don't have to worry too much. It's a good thing that the good news won't go to outsiders, and it will be digested within our team."

"In the future, the four of us will inevitably have to form a team. After that, when we go to a higher-level secret realm, I will no longer think about working alone."

"Weiyang and Xiaobai should get along very well. There should be another four-realm spirit snake by your side. By then, Xiaoyu can be liberated."

Hearing this, Zhu Weiyang looked sideways in surprise, with a slight smile appearing in his eyes.

Brother Xun, this is enlightening!

It seems that there will be many opportunities to form a team in the future.

Chen Xiaoyu's cat ears twitched on her head, and her tail swayed left and right.

This time she was ordered to follow the air force boss to "pick up money", and there is no guarantee that there will be a next time.

But Jiang Xun mentioned it.

She felt that she needed to go back and fight for her privileges.

Although the team had only been exploring for less than a day, she had already deeply realized how unique this air force team was.

Following "picking up money" is indeed a thing.

If you don't come up, Wushang "picked up" a four-realm spirit snake?
Chen Xiaoyu is not an explorer, but there is a huge amount of data on the Internet about the per capita income of explorers of all levels in various levels of secret realms.

In the second-level secret realm, even in the third realm in a large group, few people can earn more than [-] yuan.

If the small team hadn't been so lucky, it would have been worth only three or four thousand people.

At this moment, Jiang Xun said that she was considered in the team list. Wouldn't it be more interesting to go out to "pick up money" together in the future than to guard the outpost step by step?
It’s not just Zhu Weiyang and Chen Xiaoyu.

Tang Long's eyes lit up when he heard Jiang Xun's statement.

Those who are spiritual beasts but not spiritual beasts are the second best.

The key point is that with Jiang Xun's words, the air force team is basically fixed.

Tang Long was not pretentious at the moment.

"I have thirty thousand points, and I will pay them to you now."

As he spoke, he took out his cell phone.

Just as he was about to operate, Jiang Xun spoke.

"There are certain designs in the cave that prevent the signal from the outpost from entering. It's not too late to wait until we get up there."

As he spoke, he slapped the big snake on the forehead with his backhand.

!

Tang Long.

Already decided to take it.

This spiritual beast is his, and he won't be subjected to such abuse.

Just as he was about to speak out, Jiang Xun spoke coldly.

"Don't pretend to be dead, get up and make a contract."

The big snake had no choice but to open its eyes. Its yellow eyes were filled with grievances, and it slowly poked its big head over.

"..."

Tang Long.

Good guy.

Is that okay?

Normally, spiritual beasts have to be deceived or captured, and then they can be cultivated and cultivated before considering a basic contract or something.

If the spirit beasts are not allowed to experience the benefits of food and shelter, how can they agree to the contract?
Looking at the big snake approaching with a confused look on his face, Tang Long was able to confirm that this big guy was not only proficient in human language, but was also extremely spiritual and knew how to put himself in his own shoes and judge the situation he was in.

This is much better than the dull-witted Xiaobai from Jiang Xun's family.

Earned!
Without thinking much, Tang Long bit his fingertips and squeezed out a drop of blood and handed it out.

The big snake was quite conscious and spit out the snake letter to sweep away the essence and blood.There was an instant connection between the two.

The contract is done.

Tang Long didn't hesitate at all. He took out a porcelain bottle and poured out more than ten Qi-boosting pills and stuffed them into it.

"I will call you Lao Hei from now on. You can't stand other big supplements now, so you swallowed these qi supplement pills to get a base. When we set up camp in the evening and break down what we gained along the way, I will give you some secret realms then. The flesh and blood of living things replenish the vitality of the body.”

Lao Hei's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Flesh and blood, this is what it has been waiting for for countless years trapped underground.

Nodding its big head vigorously, it opened its mouth to absorb ten Qi-replenishing pills, squinted its eyes with satisfaction, then made a look with Tang Long, turned around and dragged its withered body deeper into the corner passage.

Lao Hei consciously led the way, and everyone hurriedly followed.

Before leaving, Jiang Xun didn't forget to put away the thunder bomb he didn't detonate.

……

The corner passage is not long.

Not far away, the passage suddenly opened up, and a square underground space that was clearly dug manually appeared.

Followed.

Jiang Xun and others also saw all kinds of tables and chairs of different styles.

Due to the age.

The furnishings of these tables and chairs were heavily covered in dust, but each piece revealed a touch of aura.

no doubt.

These tables and chairs are all carved from spiritual materials.

Jiang Xun and others were not surprised to see such a scene.

The owner of the cave may have been relatively weak among the former cultivation civilizations, but if he could raise Lao Hei, who was almost at the bottom of the fifth realm, he definitely had the capital.

Unfortunately.

Because too much time has passed, the aura of these things has weakened enough to reach the first level.

Lao Hei led the four of them straight to the deepest part of the square underground space without stopping, and the tip of his tail lightly touched an inconspicuous stone on the ground.

"Boom."

There was a heavy sound.

In the deepest part of the underground space, the stone wall that seems natural at first glance slowly rises, revealing a hidden space.

Then, first of all, a simple alchemy furnace with a bronze color and a height of about three to five meters came into view.

then.

There are incense tables displaying bottles and cans and various things one after another, as well as a neat row of bookshelves.

At last.

In the deepest part of the hidden space is a human skeleton sitting cross-legged on a futon.

After seeing everything here, Jiang Xun and the other four couldn't help but look at each other.

The human skeleton on the futon is undoubtedly the owner of the cave.

But here he is.

Somewhat beyond everyone's expectations.

"What happened in this secret realm in the past? The practitioner who took care of Lao Hei died in his cave?"

Zhu Weiyang murmured.

"I'm afraid there are a lot of secrets, but the clues are limited at this stage."

Chen Xiaoyu said something and stepped forward to inspect the dead bones.

Jiang Xun turned his head when he saw this.

"Xiao Yu and I will take a look at the withered bones of the cave owner. Weiyang, you and Brother Long will go take a look at the incense tables and the furnishings on the bookshelves."

After saying that, he followed forward.

Zhu Weiyang and Tang Long also investigated separately.

Dry bones come closer.

Chen Xiaoyu looked at it for a moment and said.

"This withered bone is slightly different from modern humans. The head is larger. It may be a natural deformity or other reasons. We cannot rule out that it is a humanoid group."

"Just ask Lao Hei about this."

Jiang Xun said something and turned his head.

Lao Hei followed behind him, with a hint of desolation in his yellow eyes.

Catching Jiang Xun's attention, it slowly moved its big head, indicating that its master was a human being before death.

Then its thick tail rolled back, and the tip of its slender tail lightly brushed the white bones, wiping away the dust on the surface.

Go with the flow.

The top of the skull reveals a small, cracked opening.

Jiang Xun and Chen Xiaoyu were both stunned when they saw this.

"Is this... the cause of his death?"

Jiang Xun was surprised and confused.

Lao Hei's big head sank, and there was a little fear in his eyes.

Seeing the strange color in Lao Hei's eyes, Jiang Xun frowned under his mask.

Chen Xiaoyu took out a pair of forensic gloves and put them on, then took off the skeletal head, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

Jiang Xun said nothing.

Before becoming a special combatant, Chen Xiaoyu was a field officer of the management committee.

The Super Management Committee is not the Inspection Department and does not care about routine homicide cases.

However, there are often many victims in various supernatural disasters, and the causes of death are even more bizarre.

In this regard.

Chen Xiaoyu is professional.

At this time, just wait for her to come to a conclusion.

After a while, Chen Xiaoyu turned the skull over to reveal the inside.

"Jiang Xun, look, this opening is narrow at the bottom and wide at the top. The cracks in the skull are much smaller on the inside than on the outside. It can be determined that it was opened from the inside out due to a sudden force. It seems that something is parasitic and growing in his brain. Finally, Breaking the bones causes death.”

"I have seen many similar cases in the files of the Super Management Committee. Things that can parasitize the human body as nutrients and eventually cause death are basically evil spirits, but not necessarily biological. Some evil spiritual plants that cannot be cultivated can be cultivated through planting There was a major case overseas where an evil cultivator kidnapped a large number of ordinary people to cultivate evil spiritual plants."

"But I'm somewhat unsure of what happened to the person in front of me. This person should be at least in the fifth realm. I can't think of any evil things that could parasitize him and eventually kill him."

Saying that, Chen Xiaoyu glanced at Lao Hei.

"Another point is that Lao Hei, who was trapped in the cave, was not harmed, which to a certain extent shows that the thing has no interest in beasts and even only parasitizes humans. And today, I don't know how many years later, that thing probably no longer exists. "

Jiang Xun was silent and whispered.

"The one in the cave should be gone, but it's hard to tell from the outside."

Chen Xiaoyu was stunned.

"what do you mean……?"

"We are currently in a second-level secret realm, and the normal limit is the third realm. Not to mention the ascended Miaoyu, the old Hei and this corpse we encountered are not humans and beasts that should exist in this secret realm."

Jiang Xun opened his mouth and said.

"Originally, it was not appropriate to make wild guesses. After all, it involves a gift from the Ascended One, Miao Yu. This secret space may have been created by her, and I can't tell if she set the threshold before she left."

"But it seems that is not the case now. Not only did we find a boundary here that is suspected to be the territory of the sect's influence, but we also found a cave for practitioners."

"I think this secret realm should have been a normal world. It might even be as vast as our third planet. The cultivation civilization that exists here is extremely prosperous."

Speaking of this, Jiang Xun didn't say any more.

Chen Xiaoyu fell into a long silence and finally whispered.

"According to what you said, the gift from Ascended Miaoyu may not be left to us."

"Not necessarily."

Jiang Xun replied.

"Miaoyu can be a contemporary ascendant, and she can also be a survivor of this world."

The two were talking, and Zhu Weiyang spoke up on the other side.

"Brother Xun."

?

Jiang Xun tilted his head.

The first thing he saw was the latter holding a spotless black token in his hand.
