When Yan Xu came out, his mouth opened wide in surprise, and the entire sky above the Baiman Mountain Realm was shrouded in a layer of dead air, extremely ominous, obviously something big happened, and suddenly the imperial sword flew towards Tianxiang City, and the mana was insufficient, so he hurried away.

Refining is also a kind of cultivation for Yan Xu, plus the lava lake because of the essence and heavenly calamity breath left by the dead dragon, they are all good things to make up, otherwise they can't afford to raise the nine-headed fire Jiao, Yan Xu carried the power of the five elements and converted the fire line into other attributes, although it wasted a lot, but it also improved his cultivation to the peak of the knot pill, only one line away is the golden pill period, and at the same time, with the help of the dragon bone forging body pill, the martial arts cultivation has also been steadily improved a lot, so it only took less than two days to return to Tianxiang City.

The situation is not optimistic, the locust god after a sadistic time, was the annoyed tiger head Taibao seized the opportunity to slap half to death, if it is not for the locust god can incarnate thousands of small locusts to escape, the ability to save life is super first-class, it is estimated that the angry tiger head Taibao will be fried in the oil pan and eaten.

But after the locust plague slowly subsided, with the strange aroma that inexplicably appeared at the foot of Baiman Mountain, the brute beasts in Baiman Mountain were slowly led down the mountain, according to the reconnaissance of the Feiyu Corps under General Feiyu, almost half of the brute beasts at the foot of Baiman Mountain were attracted down the mountain, and with the blank area generated after these brute beasts left, the brute beasts on the mountain would also be slowly attracted over, and eventually form a terrible beast tide.

This kind of thing has happened more than once, whenever the brute beasts at the bottom are not enough to breed on the mountain because of the excessive number of breeding, they will go down the mountain for ordinary food, because a large number of brute beasts at the bottom of the food chain go down the mountain, and the predators who lack prey will also follow down the mountain to find food, so because of the chain reaction into a beast tide, it will happen once every tens or hundreds of years.

The worst thing is that this time the barbarians also showed signs of involvement, although they were called barbarians, it did not mean that they did not have wisdom, and it did not take any wisdom to follow the brute beasts to pick up cheap, and then the Hundred Barbarian Mountain Realm would suffer an unprecedented disaster.

In order to cope with the upcoming beast tide, Crouching Tiger City wanted to recruit more soldiers to deal with it, but the locust plague destroyed almost all of this year's harvest, and the result of the lack of officials was that Crouching Tiger City did not have decent disaster relief food reserves at all, even if the reserves of military food were not very perfect, and most of them were secretly resold by officials and businessmen, and there was no way to support large-scale recruitment.

This is not bad, the land near the Baiman Mountain was originally not very populated, and now it is about to become a dead land, and other places have begun to go crazy because of the news of the locust plague and the invasion of the barbarian beasts, and in less than a month, they have killed one-tenth of the population because of cannibalism, and if this continues, the entire Baiman Mountain Realm will be able to die clean without waiting for the barbarians to invade.

Tianhu Mountain is now a rare paradise, many refugees have fled with their families, and the population of the nine cities in Waiguan has now tripled, because of the lack of effective managers.

Tianxiang City is better, with the emergency emergency plan and material reserves left by Yan Xu, it barely survived, and the other eight cities have obviously fallen into a state of chaos, even the fox clan has begun to numb its claws, and has to close the gate of the outer gate, and the grain does not dare to be transported out, and it will be snatched away by hungry and crazy people if it is shipped out.

Those victims are not afraid of killing at all, even if their relatives are killed in front of them, they are dragged back to eat, the horror of hunger is not something that ordinary people can resist, compared to being slowly starved to death, being directly hacked to death is more acceptable to them.

Yan Xu frowned, took over Tianxiang City as soon as possible, and opened the illusion in the big array, isolating Tianxiang City from the outside world, and at the same time asked Qin Ming to recruit soldiers from the refugees with the fire crow soldiers whose number has been expanded to five hundred, at least most of the young and strong refugees were incorporated into the army to prevent turmoil, and then contacted the Hua family to urgently purchase a batch of food.

If it weren't for the wealth of Xiangyou Temple as a confidence, Yan Xu really wouldn't dare to open his mouth so much, and set enough food to meet 100,000 people at a time, but Yan Xu himself used some of those wealth, and this time he directly consumed most of it, and the rest could only be used to maintain the normal operation of Tianxiang City.

For Yan Xu's large order, the Hua family did not feel embarrassed, as a businessman, they naturally would not let go of this kind of natural and man-made disaster, they had already stored a large amount of grain and grass at the border of the Baiman Mountain Boundary, enough to meet the needs of 200,000 people for a year, just waiting to sell it at a high price, but who would have thought that the chaos in Baiman Mountain was beyond their imagination.

In the year of the disaster, you can still raise the price to buy low and sell high, but now it is a troubled time, such a large number of food will definitely not attract simple buyers, there are countless robbers, even at the border is not safe, the refugees who fled and the robbers who received the news have begun to gather here, the nearby capital has begun martial law, and reported to the imperial court to mobilize the army to guard the border, so as not to let this turmoil spread to the interior of Jingguo.

Originally, Jingguo was secretly wary of Baiman Mountain, where the Hutou Taibao was located, and the troops stationed in the nearby Fucheng were not inferior to the border troops in terms of number and elite, and they were always ready to arrive, and they arrived in a short time after receiving the order, but in order to arrive as soon as possible, the logistics were naturally insufficient.

Therefore, after learning that such a large amount of grain and grass was here, not to mention the people of Baiman Mountain, even the army of the imperial court showed some abnormalities, at this time Yan Xu came over with real money, and the Hua family was immediately moved and almost cried, and only sold it to Yan Xu after only five layers of price increase.

These grains and grasses are all transported from the places where the grain is produced, and two or three layers can be consumed on the road alone, not to mention the cost of transporting so many things, and the price increase of five layers can already be said to be the cost price, if it weren't for Yan Xu's promise to deliver it himself, the Hua family would really not dare to sell it at this price, otherwise it would be a loss.

However, selling half of the grain also reduces the pressure on the Hua family, after all, although there is more grain and grass left, it is not cost-effective compared to the risk of snatching, after all, the Hua family is not a vegetarian, and when there is money to a certain extent, it will be transformed into power.

Besides, the Hua family is not no one in the imperial court, if there are enough things stolen, those who do it can also go up and down, so that the Hua family will suffer a dumb loss, but now it is not enough for a group of hungry wolves, but it makes the Hua family safe, which is really ironic.

Transportation is a very troublesome business, especially when there are a large number of victims gathered at the border, robbers and soldiers, I am afraid they will not watch the grain pass in front of their eyes.

However, it is not without a solution for cultivators, although Yan Xu does not have a storage magic weapon now, but he has a inheritance pagoda, this mysterious treasure even if he did not figure out all the functions in his previous life, it is simply overkill to use it for storage, the space inside is growing with the stored things, it seems that the mountains of grain and grass are piled up, Yan Xu can transport them all at one time, but this is too conspicuous, in order to prevent the ability of the inheritance pagoda from being exposed, Yan Xu deliberately divided it into many times, so that the Hua family was also eyed.

It seems that in order to eliminate this hidden danger, he has to refine a storage magic weapon to cover people's eyes and ears, Yan Xu feels a little troublesome, the materials needed for this storage magic weapon are not easy to find, and his own cultivation is also lacking, it seems that he needs to wait for a while.
