Chapter 143: The Blessing of the Migrant Crane
After obtaining the mission information, Lu Xuan didn't stay long, rented a spirit crane, and came to the Beast Control Hall.
He asked his fellow disciples in the beast control hall for the specific habitat of the spirit crane, and rounded several peaks to find a vast pool of water.
Shuizawa covers an area of hundreds of acres, at this time there are hundreds of spirit cranes inhabiting here, many spirit cranes are white feathers, elegant posture, or in the water and water weeds, or in the low altitude to stretch their wings, Lu Xuan looked for a long time, only to see a pair of long neck entangled, ears and temples grinding spirit cranes.
As if sensing Lu Xuan's arrival, a monk flew out from the depths of the water, with dark skin and a ninth-level cultivation of Qi cultivation.
"This junior brother is polite, under Xu Yi, he is the manager of this piece of water, may I ask what the junior brother is called, but he is here to solve the problem of Linghe fertility?"
"Hello Senior Brother Xu, in Xia Lu Xuan, as Senior Brother said, I received the spirit crane fertility task in the general affairs hall, come and take a look at the spirit crane habitat."
"It turned out to be Senior Brother Lu, I've worked hard all the way, so go with me to rest for a while."
When Xu Yi heard this, a eager smile appeared on his face, leading Lu Xuan to shuttle through the water.
Half a moment later, the two came to a wooden house, the building area is not large, only three or four huts, but the environment is good, surrounded by water, and the view is good.
"There are so many spirit cranes in the sect, are they all raised by Senior Brother Xu?"
After the two chatted for a few words, Lu Xuan asked curiously.
"Haha, I'm not the only one, but I'm mainly responsible for these cranes."
"The spirit cranes in Mizuzawa are still only a small part, and most of the spirit cranes are now staying in various parts of the sect, carrying the same sect and earning some spirit stones for the Beast Control Hall."
"When night falls, they will basically return to Shuize, and only a few spirit cranes are still guarding important places in the sect."
The dark-skinned Xu Yi smiled.
"Are there hundreds of cranes in Mizusawa or a few? That's at least a thousand heads, right? ”
Lu Xuan asked in surprise, surprised by the number of spirit cranes.
"A recent census of the number of cranes counted more than 2,300 cranes, but this is already the lowest number in the history, I remember that when I first took over this piece of water, there were more than 3,000 cranes in it."
"The main sects have a relatively large demand for Linghe, whether it is communication or transportation, they are good objects."
Xu Yi explained.
Lu Xuanshen thought so, the area of the sect was vast, and a Qianlong Lake alone stretched for hundreds of miles.
And most of the outer disciples didn't have flying magic weapons, so how to shorten the travel time was a huge problem for them.
Although the monks of the Qi cultivation realm have mastered the light body technique, or have speed-type talismans, the speed is relatively slow, and the consumption is huge, so it is not very cost-effective.
The Spirit Crane can solve this problem very well, the speed is extremely fast, not weaker than some flying magic weapons, no matter how far or near, each time it consumes a spirit stone, within the tolerance range of high-level Qi cultivators.
"With so many spirit cranes, how to solve the problem of the food they usually eat?"
Lu Xuan has a lot of interest in how to raise a large number of spirit cranes.
"It's easy to eat, let them find some spirit grass roots, young leaves, or spirit mussels and snails in the water."
"From time to time, the Beast Control Hall will provide some specially cultivated spirit insects to raise spirit cranes."
Xu Yi asked casually.
“……”
"Linghe earns so many spirit stones, so feed them some of this?"
Lu Xuan was speechless in his heart, there were more than 2,000 spirit cranes in the Beast Control Hall, and each of them earned an average of a few spirit stones a day, and it was estimated that there were no less than seven or eight thousand spirit stones that day.
Such a gold-absorbing spirit beast, he actually has to go to the water to find food by himself?
Moreover, so many spirit cranes are crowded in this water, and they may be able to hit several of the same kind with a single lunge, which is also a considerable constraint for the spirit cranes soaring in the sky.
"I worked hard to earn spirit stones, but as a result, I couldn't eat enough, and the poor housing all flowed into the pocket of the beast control hall."
"This is the blessing of working cranes, there is no hope in life, no wonder they don't want to have children at all."
Lu Xuan sighed at the level of the black heart of the Beast Control Hall cultivator, and understood Linghe's choice very well.
The two chatted for a while, and another young monk found Mizusawa, and after talking, Lu Xuan learned that the young monk's name was Zhou Zhengqing, and he also came for Linghe's fertility problem.
Some of the tasks in the general affairs hall will have a limit on the number of people, while others will not, and there is no limit to the number of monks in the Spirit Crane fertility task.
"It should be Senior Brother Lu and Senior Brother Zhou who take over this task, and in the next few days, I will work hard for the two junior brothers to help solve the problem of Linghe's birth."
Xu Yi straightened his expression and said solemnly.
"Spirit cranes are widely used in the Heavenly Sword Sect, but these spirit cranes raised by the Beast Control Hall are now facing a big problem, the number of spirit cranes willing to give birth is getting smaller and smaller, making the total number of spirit cranes have been declining over the years."
"Especially this year, the number of pregnant spirit cranes is nearly twenty percent less than last year, and if this continues, the sect will soon run out of enough spirit cranes to carry monks."
A hint of worry appeared on Xu Yi's face.
"There is another problem to be aware of, among the cranes, the number of female cranes who refuse to give birth is significantly smaller."
"Due to the long pregnancy cycle, it takes a lot of time and energy to hatch and raise young cranes, especially in the conception stage, which will cause damage to their own spiritual power when breeding crane eggs, which is also the main reason for the decrease in the number of cranes."
"Even in the estrus of the spirit crane, it can be clearly seen that the spirit crane's desire to mate is seriously reduced, and many spirit cranes would rather go out to earn spirit stones than stay in the water and give birth to newborn spirit cranes."
Xu Yi explained the situation of Linghe to Lu Xuan and the others in detail.
Hearing this, the two were silent for a moment, as if they were thinking of a solution.
"Senior Brother Xu, I feel that the reason for the current situation is not the objective fertility difficulties of the spirit cranes, but their subjective reluctance to give birth, so it is best to start from this aspect."
Lu Xuan took the lead in saying.
With the experience of his previous life, he empathizes with Linghe's choice.
"Senior Brother Lu, you're talking a little mysterious."
Zhou Zhengqing, who was on the side, heard what Lu Xuan said, and couldn't help but retort.
"It's just some evil animals, life and death are in our hands, where can it choose whether to give birth or not?"
He turned his head to look at Xu Yi and said with a smile.
"Senior Brother Xu, I suggest a simple and direct way to force those spirit cranes to multiply, so as to increase the number of spirit cranes."
"It just so happens that I came up with a side door technique, which is similar to the double cultivation technique, which can give birth to the lust of spirit beasts, and there is also a method for the configuration of ecstatic drugs, under the action of the two phases, it is guaranteed that the spirit cranes can reproduce in large numbers and increase the number of spirit cranes in one fell swoop."
"Really? Senior Brother Zhou still has such a good method? ”
When Xu Yi heard this, his eyes lit up.
