No matter where it is, it is not an easy thing to cash out thousands of taels of blood spirit stones.

After experiencing various twists and turns, such as the chief of urban defense and general affairs, who fell into a pit and disappeared inexplicably, the financial manager was seriously injured and did not recover, and the door lock of the warehouse door failed to open due to accidental failure.

When all this was done, it was already dark. Gou Xuan hurried to the city, where the smell of fish was everywhere, and the ditches were crisscrossed, filled with oil slicks and biological entrails, and there was a market where countless butcher shops gathered.

The inhabitants of the deep demon realm are different from the human realm, they do not grow food. Mortals and monks usually live on the beasts and wild demons hunted by the demon hunters, and eat meat. Hence the butcher shops are everywhere.

From time to time, there will be organs on the body of the wild demon that have residual spiritual energy gathered, which can be used to refine magic weapons or directly used for cultivation, and they are often traded here. Therefore, the meat market is also a Xuan market.

With the beast tide approaching, hunters are less and less likely to go out hunting, and there are fewer and fewer butcher shops that continue to open and sell, and the lights are sparse at night. Gou Zhu didn't want to miss the opportunity.

He went straight to a shop that was still lit with dim lights, picked up the sharpening stick on the board and tapped on the shiny board. This is the code code for Xuanshi trading.

Sure enough, a dirty curtain was lifted in the room, and a chubby greasy man walked out. Seeing Gou Zhu, he grinned and said:

"I have searched the entire Kapok City up and down, including the official market, and there are only two pieces left, both of which are here. For the sake of the regular customers, two pieces will be sold to you in a package, and a total of 1,600 taels will be taken away!"

After he finished speaking, he took out a living spirit jade box, opened a crack slightly, and an incomparably powerful cold qi gushed out. The Hook Divine Sense swept over, and it was determined that there were two "Extremely Cold Silver Leaves" among them.

After some bargaining, he spent 1,200 taels of blood spirit stones, and also put on hundreds of blind wolf beast cores that could only be traded secretly in the demon world, and not only emptied the battle of Night Blind Mountain and the beast core inventory obtained later in the demon world, but also only left a hundred taels of blood spirit stones on his body.

The butcher shop owner was also satisfied. If the Extremely Cold Silver Leaf is purchased by the Xijia people, it will be worth up to two hundred taels of blood spirit stones. They leave a small amount in the hope that they will make a big profit.

"Where's the news?" Gou Zhu accepted the living spirit jade box and did not leave immediately. According to the rules of this market, every time a business is sold, the store will give some secret news about Xuanmen.

"Don't fool the news of the prince of the tree clan, this matter has already spread all over the streets. ”

"Brother, my brother's shop is so unbearable? My news has always been worth a lot of money, and you will never hear it outside!" the fat man stopped counting the money and muttered dissatisfiedly, and then he said the "secret" news.

"Some brothers who risked their lives to go out hunting said that this year's animal tide was later than in previous years, but it was very strange. All the red-haired baboons are stranded in the southern part of the Silver Dragon Mountains. ”

The stranding of the beast tide in one place is not good news, but it may be a sign of great disaster.

Hungry beasts devour local creatures, even trees and weeds. After eating everything they can eat, they don't starve to death, but start devouring each other.

A hundred red-haired baboons devouring each other If there is only one left, it is enough to reach the strength of the demon beast, which is about the same as the strength of the Xudan monk, and its coat color is orange, which is called the orange-haired demon baboon.

Ten orange-haired demon baboons devouring each other can create a shape-shifting demon, and the color of the fur turns green, which is called a green-haired demon baboon, and its strength is equal to that of a Purple Mansion monk.

If they continue to devour each other like this, the five-headed green-haired demon baboon will be able to turn into a purple-haired demon baboon with the strength of the Jindan Great Demon.

The beast tide gathered by two million red-haired baboons was theoretically enough to devour four hundred purple-haired demon baboons with Jindan strength, almost enough to destroy the entire Dongsheng Divine Continent!

Of course, this is only an ideal extreme case, and in fact it is absolutely impossible.

The demon beasts, shapeshifters, and great demons produced by devouring each other in the beast tide are all extremely primitive, and most of them, like wild demons, are just driven by hunger and constantly looking for food, and have no wisdom. But it's also harder to deal with.

This news is really even more terrifying than the return of the son of the Demon Emperor to the demon world. Gou Zhu suddenly felt that Kapok City was in danger, and he had to prepare a way to escape. But it won't be easy.

Although Kapok City has a teleportation array that can teleport to several big cities in the Demon Realm thousands of miles away, once the city is in danger, it is impossible for hundreds of thousands of people to teleport away.

The teleportation array turned on continuous teleportation with all its might, and there were only a thousand people who could leave. When the time comes, there will be chaos, competing with each other for the opportunity to teleport, and it is possible that none of them will be able to leave.

It is also dangerous to leave Kapok City with a large teleportation charm and go to a wild place in the demon realm within a hundred miles, but it is better than staying in the city and waiting for death.

As for the inexplicable son of the Tree Emperor who suddenly appeared, Gou Zhu was not too worried.

Nine times out of ten, the son of the Tree Emperor sent by the Ghost Owl Clan is a fake, and it may be that the Ghost Owl Night King is playing ghosts and deliberately wants to provoke civil strife in the Tree Clan. They didn't have to do anything, and the elders of the Kinobe would never let him ascend the throne smoothly.

He can continue to hide in the shadows and sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, and wait and see how the situation changes. Wait for Lian Ling to come over with the inner response of the tree clan. By that time, the Kinobe and the Ghost Owl had already been inextricably linked, and other tribes of the Tree Clan might have been involved.

The more chaotic the situation, the more opportunities they have to help Wood get back what he was supposed to have.

But he must let Mu Fei calm and calm, and don't make an accident impulsively. Otherwise, if they are exposed early, Kinobe will definitely take strict precautions. He didn't have to think about it to guess that Mu Fei was already in a rage now, and he might jump out and kill people at any time.

Fortunately, Lian Ling asked the veteran Tong Yao to go with them, obviously to curb Mu Fei, who was easily impulsive.

Under the cover of night, Gou Zhu hurried to the courtyard in the bamboo forest.

There was no fog or snow that night, and there was only a full moon in the clear sky, slightly reddened, as if stained with blood.

The three crows glided silently along the treetops over Gouzhu's head, flew out of the fence on the edge of the city, and went all the way until they flew over the ridge of the Silver Dragon Mountain Range, and stopped on a mountainside densely covered with pine forests at the southern foothills, and turned into three young men dressed in black, two men and one woman.

Although most of their bodies look like humans, the backs of their hands are densely covered with long black feathers, and they are the members of the Moon Raven Clan who depend on Kapok City to survive.

Moon crows are naturally good at flying by the glimmer of the moon, and often take on the duty of patrolling the night inside and outside Kapok City.

Before the beast tide arrived, they had to patrol the Silver Dragon Mountain Range night and night to monitor the condition of the beast tide. Once they found that the beast tide had a tendency to climb over the Silver Dragon Mountain Range, they had to warn them in advance.

One of them was a delicate woman with a delicate face, and her black night clothes were tightly wrapped around her body, especially reflecting her fair complexion. She tugged at the sleeve of the tall man beside her and said with some trepidation.

"Brother Gang, we have all crossed the ridge, in case we hit the beast tide, it will be dangerous!"

"Yuelong, with me, what are you afraid of?" The tall man's name is Yuegang, and he is especially heroic at this time. Tsugetaki unconsciously leaned closer to him.

Yuegang looks rough, but his eyes cast into the dark night are steady. He took a few breaths and said, "The smell is getting stronger and stronger, but I don't know where it came from?"

Originally, their patrol mission had ended, but a strange fragrance attracted them, and they flew directly to the southern foothills, where there are few people patrolling in normal times.

"Maybe it's the scent of flowers? Tsukitaki muttered quietly, "Wouldn't it be better for us to go back quietly as if we didn't smell anything?"

"The city lord said that you can't let go of any abnormalities when patrolling the Silver Dragon Mountain Range at night!"

The man at the front is called Yueying, and he is the captain of this team. The lines of his face are much softer than those of Yuegang, but his words are hard, and he mercilessly refutes Tsukitaki's suggestion.

After a while, a faint human voice that seemed to come from far away came, as if it was floating in the wind, and it made Tsukitaki, who was already very timid, shiver violently.

"You...... Did you hear anything......" she asked after a moment's hesitation.

"I hear you. It's a woman, crying for help. Yuegang replied in a low voice.

"Woman, help, won't it be ......" Yuelong suddenly remembered something, and said, "A few days ago, we must find the body of the formation master surnamed Mu, she is a woman...... Do you say, do you say......"

She felt surrounded by an inexplicable chill.

Yueying's eyes shot a cold light, looked around, and said coldly: "Of course the corpse will not shout for help. Since she is shouting, it means that she is not dead!"
