Chapter 17: The Culprit Rat
"Naturally."
Speaking of the Soul Eater,
Chen Changan's face also became solemn, and his face showed resentment.
"It's all because of that damn Spirit Devouring Rat, which caused my Chen family to suffer heavy losses, Little Brother Fang, you must solve that damn scourge for your brother!"
subsequently
Under Fang Yuan's strong request,
Instead of going back to Chen's house to rest for the night, everyone went directly through Linghu Town and came to a valley in the back mountain.
This is where the spiritual veins are located.
There is a hubo in the center.
Surrounded by a field of reeds,
There is a dense fog during the period.
The group stood in front of the thick fog,
I saw Chen Changan take out a jade talisman and pour spiritual power into the jade talisman towards the dense fog in front of him.
Spirit fish farming is a matter of great importance,
For the sake of safety, the Chen family arranged a formation around them to guard.
In the final analysis, the formation is to take advantage of the situation, change the natural pattern of mountains and rivers with the help of topography and landform, and produce all kinds of incredible energy.
The power of the formation lies in the natural danger!
The dense fog that blocks the Spirit Lake in front of you,
It should be the cheapest low-level formation in Fang City, it only has the effect of confusing and trapping the enemy, and it has no lethality at all.
This formation only made weak use of the lake and valley topography, and did not change further.
This is also to maintain the stability of the spiritual veins.
With Chen Changan's manipulation,
The fog ahead spreads a road,
Fang Yuan followed Chen Changan and the others into the formation.
Through a relatively deep passage,
The view in front of me became clearer.
Two football fields bigger than the green lake appeared in front of you.
The blue waves are rippling, and there is a trace of aura in the lake water.
There is a small stream that rises from the mountain and flows into the lake.
"This is it!"
Chen Chang'an took Fang Yuan to the cabin on the edge of the Spirit Lake, where he was guarded by a female cultivator named Chen Nianqing who was on the second level of Qi cultivation.
After seeing the patriarch leading Fang Yuan to arrive, Chen Nianqing stepped forward and cried.
"What kind of system is crying and crying, this is the little Daoist friend Fang sent by the Immortal Sect to help us solve our troubles."
"Tell Daoyou about this specific situation!"
Chen Changan scolded her with an embarrassed face before he stopped the female cultivator's crying.
"That damn Spirit Eater rat, I found it nearby half a month ago,...... In order to prevent the beast from causing more damage, we have been sending people to watch the neighborhood day and night for the past few days, but the results have been to no avail! ”
Fang Yuan sneered in his heart, this female cultivator's behavior should have been arranged.
The purpose is probably to worry that his strength is not good enough, and he is not attentive enough, so as to exert pressure.
Otherwise, a Qi cultivator, or a female cultivator, who pays more attention to appearance, how could she be embarrassed in front of a disciple of the Immortal Sect?
It seems that the scourge of the Spirit Swallowing Mouse has indeed made everyone in the Chen family anxious.
Nor do they expose this small means.
After patiently listening to the female cultivator's statement, he nodded, the matter was the same as he understood, and the Chen family was also eager to solve this trouble, and there was no hiding.
"That beast is so cunning, very good at concealment, and so fast that there is no way to do it!"
Chen Changan gritted his teeth and continued.
If there are many monks in the Chen family, who is the most resentful of this spirit swallowing rat, it is none other than Chen Chang'an.
Don't look at his cultivation is not high, but his vision and courage are among the best, which is why he can ascend to the throne and become the patriarch.
Opening up the Qinghu Lake and cultivating herring fish was his decision when he became the patriarch.
Not only did he invest most of the Chen family's savings, but he even sold his magic weapons and invested his entire net worth.
Under his move, several people who were still hesitant also made up their minds to support emulators, and even shrink their clothes and diet, which is the scale that Qinghu has today.
Seeing that the harvest is about to be harvested, when these fry grow up one after another, they will be able to keep the clouds open and see the moon.
Not only can it bring a lot of income to the family, but it also creates another source of income.
If it is done, looking at Lingtian and the fish, the Chen family will become more and more prosperous in his hands.
More resources will be accumulated, and more monks will be trained.
In the future, it may not be impossible to become a great family of immortal cultivators.
A hundred years later, even if he turns into loess, he can still leave a strong mark in the history of the Chen family.
The appearance of this Spirit Devouring Rat undoubtedly ruined his future.
"I already know the situation, I wonder if I can go to the lake to investigate?"
Seeing Chen Changan chattering endlessly and wanting to complain, Fang Yuan had to interrupt.
"Of course, little friend, please."
Hearing that Fang Yuan was about to start climbing the lake, Chen Changan's eyes flashed with joy.
He groveled so much, and arranged the scene of the female cultivator, in order to make Fang Yuan hurry up.
I am afraid that this person will be arrogant and not take this task to heart, which will make the loss of the spirit fish worse.
Rejected the request of the peer.
Ride a flat boat and swim on the lake.
The clear water is blue in the sky, and the boat is painted to listen to the rain.
Standing at the bow of the boat, I saw a group of dark shadows swimming slowly in the lake.
It's the school of herring.
Led by a fish king with a significantly larger body.
At a glance, this is actually a king fish.
With the cultivation of the middle stage of Qi cultivation, most of the spirit fish in the lake are its bloodline.
Although this fish has mana, it has an extremely docile temperament. The strength can only be regarded as the bottom among the mid-level demon beasts.
It is not aggressive, it has a strong reproductive ability, and it is one of the spirit animals that many monks like to keep in captivity.
The Chen family didn't know where they got this one.
This king of fish is not afraid of people, leading a group of descendants to swim in the lake, and from time to time to emerge from the water, spitting bubbles, so comfortable.
After swimming around the boat, he didn't notice the slightest anomaly and had to return to his place.
Everyone in the Chen family had been waiting anxiously for a long time.
"Have you found out?"
"Not really!"
Fang Yuan shook his head, he really didn't find any trace of the Spirit Devouring Mouse.
"That Spirit Swallowing Mouse is cunning, it is estimated that it is hidden somewhere, and it is not easy to detect!"
Although he didn't have much hope for this survey, Chen Changan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and said with a strong smile:
"In that case, Fang Xiaoyou might as well go back to Chen's house with me to stay temporarily, leave them stationed here, and when they find the traces of the demon rat, they will notify Xiaoyou to make a move."
If this Spirit Swallowing Mouse didn't come out, he couldn't ask Fang Yuan to wait here, so he could only invite him back to rest.
"No need!"
"I've been staying here for the past few days, looking for traces of demon rats."
Fang Yuan declined Chen Changan's good intentions.
Take people's money and eliminate disasters for others.
Since he has accepted this task, he will naturally do his best.
What's more, the cruise just now, he was not without gains, and found some clues.
"I'm going to squat, and I'm going to wait!"
Fang Yuan said goodbye to everyone, and then used the water avoidance technique to dive into the lake, followed behind the school of spirit fish, and swam in the water with the school of fish.
Knowing by heart the few places where the fish were staying, he dived into a reed swing and waited patiently, ready to wait for the rats.
Seeing Fang Yuan acting so resolutely, Chen Changan no longer dared to have the slightest contempt in his heart.
He commanded everyone to wait here sleeplessly, just waiting to find the trace of the Spirit Devouring Mouse and help Fang Yuan.
The fish school had not been attacked for two consecutive days, and Fang Yuan was not discouraged at all, he had already made up his mind to eradicate the demon rat.
After rejecting the persuasion of the patriarch Chen Changan several times, he still lurked patiently.
It wasn't until dawn on the third day that there was finally a harvest, and the culprit rat who stole the spirit fish appeared!
I saw a sneaky creature crawling out of the reeds and sneaking in the direction of the herring.
