81 Demon Hunting
The Emperor of the Heavens told Jiang Xiaomiao and said, "I don't think the cultivators have the means to identify the mutated ice crystal silkworm species, after all, in addition to the silkworm species, it is also related to the leaves of the wild ice fruit tree. Otherwise, the Xiuzhen Sect can find out the alien silkworms and keep them for seeds, and they can monopolize the raw materials of the magic robe by digging up all the wild ice fruit trees outside the town, so why rely on mortals to raise ice crystal silkworms. However, the ice crystal silkworm is also a kind of alien beast, and its difference is that a natural divine beast like Amun can sense it, if you are willing to do it, you will take it with you tomorrow. ”
Jiang Xiaomiao's curiosity was very strong, and the next day she really gave up her study of pharmacy and went out with He Xiuxiu early in the morning. Ice crystal silkworm breeding is the most important industry in Qilin Town, and there are special shops selling ice crystal silkworm seeds at different prices. These silkworm seeds are placed in a special cabinet to avoid hatching in advance, five taels of silver a silkworm seed is the most common, some of the silkworm seeds that look very large and energetic are sold to twenty taels of silver, which is not necessarily every time someone is willing to sell, most of these are large silkworm farmers because they are afraid of the degradation of silkworm seeds and occasionally sell them in exchange.
He Xiuxiu planned to make up a silkworm seed to continue breeding, and Jiang Xiaomiao hugged Ah Meng and took Ah Huang to follow her to see the silkworm seeds. In a street market, it is also a bit difficult to pick out the ice crystal silkworm with mutant genes among the tens of thousands of silkworm seeds. Jiang Xiaomiao selected hundreds of them in a row, and the faces of the people in the shop were not good. He Xiuxiu was also embarrassed, the voice was only five taels of silver, according to her thoughts, she just took one and left, Jiang Xiaomiao didn't do it well.
Jiang Xiaomiao, who is small and thick-skinned, doesn't look at people's faces, she deliberately let Amon get close to those silkworm seeds, hoping for a miracle, and when Amon has not reacted, she decisively pulled the old lady to the next shop, which made the guys in that shop almost crazy.
Several shops have been strolled, and He Xiuxiu finally couldn't help but say: "Miao, your sister is still preparing to cook at home, cooking will smell of firewood, the ice crystal silkworm doesn't like this taste, I plan to go back to serve my ice crystal silkworm, let's just pick one to raise?" ”
It's been three hours of shopping, and Jiang Xiaomiao also feels that it's almost the same today, where is the mutant silkworm seed so easy to find, otherwise the magic robe will not be so expensive. Jiang Xiaomiao pointed to the last shop in the market and said, "Let's go there and take a random one and go home." ”
He Xiuxiu was very satisfied with Jiang Xiaomiao's decision, and as soon as she entered the shop, she casually took a silkworm seed and planned to go home, but she didn't expect Amon to wake up suddenly at this time, and threw herself on the silkworm seed counter and rolled, so scared that the guys were about to cry. Amon took two silkworm seeds in his mouth and asked Jiang Xiaomiao for credit, Jiang Xiaomiao decisively took the two silkworm seeds and asked the old lady to pay.
The silkworm seeds on the counter were damaged a lot by Amun's flutter, and the shopkeeper didn't follow it, pulling He Xiuxiu to lose money, and after the last negotiation, He Xiuxiu reluctantly spent fifty taels of silver to buy eleven silkworm seeds, four of which basically didn't have a few silkworm eggs that could hatch, all of them were broken, and Amon's destructive power was too amazing.
He Xiuxiu thought that Amon was a bad cat who was a loser, if it weren't for Amon falling asleep, her eyes could scare Amon into crying. Jiang Xiaomiao felt that she should believe in Amon's ability, she muttered to Amon for a long time in the morning, hoping that the little guy really understood and helped her find the xenomorph ice crystal silkworm.
He Xiuxiu, who used up fifty taels of silver, was busy feeding the silkworms and hatching the silkworms after returning home, and she planned to hatch the seven ice crystal silkworm seeds that were the most damaged, so that after the first batch of ice crystal silkworms were sold at a price, her young silkworms could occupy the entire room again. Jiang Xiaomiao left behind the two silkworm seeds selected by Amon and the remaining two silkworm seeds, and she had to feed them alone to verify Amon's talent, so she had to make some preparations.
Now Jiang Xiaomiao's house is obviously insufficient. The largest main house is home to ice crystal silkworms, and the remaining main room is her independent bedroom and alchemy studio. There are three small side rooms, one serves as a firewood room and kitchen, one is the bedroom of He Xiuxiu and Jiang Xiaohua, and the smallest one is a bath and toilet.
As soon as the desire to buy another place to make a real room came out, Jiang Xiaomiao took direct action. She likes to live near the water, and when the puppet took her to Qilin Town, she took a fancy to a neighborhood facing the river seven or eight miles away, and she really wanted to settle down there, so she could rent a house first. Ah Huang went out to investigate that night with the little master's wishes, and when he came back, he brought a strange scale and handed it to Jiang Xiaomiao.
After seeing this scale, the Emperor said, "This is a fish demon's scale, I dare to conclude that there is something strange in this river." However, if the Tianhe Sect did not send people to catch demons, then this fish demon still has some skills, it did not make trouble in the places where mortals lived, so its methods of harming people were very hidden. Xiao Miao, I dare to conclude that there are many people in this place along the river who are strangely sick and even die. ”
Jiang Xiaomiao said: "I just want to move, I want to see if Amon's talent is real, I don't want to see a house and meet monsters, I have chosen a place to buy a yard, I can't rent a yard, we may not be able to live here for a long time." ”
The Emperor said: "This is not good, you see how excited Ah Huang is, if it eats that demon, the bloodline will evolve, it can increase its lifespan by at least a few decades, and her milk will nourish Ah Meng more, you should think that Ah Meng is going to touch the monster, Ah Huang brought a demon scale is what it means." ”
Ah Huang saw that the Emperor of the Heavens was so concerned about her, and wagged his tail happily, Jiang Xiaomiao was sad, she couldn't offend the nurse Boshi even if she was numb, otherwise where would she get milk for Amon to eat.
The next day, Jiang Xiaomiao went out with Jiang Xiaohua on the grounds of eating snacks on the street, and yesterday on the street had already aroused He Xiuxiu's dissatisfaction, this time she could only pull Jiang Xiaohua to go around the monster's place. Jiang Xiaohua is satisfied with the food, to be honest, she is also a quasi-big girl, she didn't go to the market once when she arrived in Qilin Town, this time Jiang Xiaomiao took her shopping and snacks, she fully cooperated with Jiang Xiaomiao's purpose to find out the news.
The riverside neighborhood is about two miles long, and the river winds its way to the plantation area on the east side of the town, irrigating a large area of ice fruit groves on the east bank, and most of the residents of the whole block are relatively wealthy landlords of ice fruit groves.
Jiang Xiaomiao inquired about the grapevine along the way, and finally concluded that there were indeed more people who fell ill and died in this neighborhood this year. There was a family that died of illness in the first two years. This house is disliked, and the heir to the family's property, Li Dahu, and the landlord Li have not sold it yet, and of course they can't rent it.
