Bankruptcy beast

"The injuries on this mouse were indeed burns, but according to my observation, this mouse seemed to have drowned first."

Wen Quan handed the test report to Jiang Chen and said, "Brother Chen, are you sure you didn't fish it out of the pond?"

"no."

Jiang Chen took the report and frowned slightly.

Either he was scalded to death or he was drowned. Could it be that there were several other creatures attacking the mouse at the same time?

"By the way, have you figured out the situation of the aberrant rat? Is it a natural mutation, or..."

Jiang Chen couldn't figure out the reason for a while, so he simply changed the topic.

"I came out with the analysis report on the aberrant rat on the same day. It is definitely caused by external influence, but it is not man-made. I can't say for sure."

Wen Quan shook his head and said, "But I may have discovered the reason for the mutation of these aberrant rats."

As he spoke, Wen Quan picked out a small piece of white flesh from the mouse corpse that Jiang Chen brought and said, "According to my tests over the past two days, the changes in these mice seem to be caused by this piece of flesh."

"Judging from the current research results, this piece of flesh seems to have the ability to transform the body of living beings, and..."

Wen Quan paused, carefully took out a glass bottle, took out a piece of white meat of about the same size inside, and placed it next to the previous white meat.

Then, in Jiang Chen's surprised eyes, the two pieces of white flesh squirmed toward each other, and split into slender tentacles. After entangled with each other, they actually merged into one piece.

"From our current findings, it appears that this white meat leads the mice to seek out other white meat, and the more they devour, the stronger they become."

Jiang Chen's heart trembled when he heard this. They would continue to grow stronger by devouring each other. So with the size of the rat group, wouldn't there be many existences similar to silver rats soon born?

"However, this kind of white meat seems to have very high requirements for parasites. The aberrant body probably cannot bear the transformation of white meat, so it becomes like that."

After expressing his opinions, Wen Quan suddenly saw Jiang Chen staring at him with a serious face, and his face suddenly turned red again, saying: "These are my own opinions, and I'm not sure if they are right, after all... …”

"You only understand a little bit, I understand."

Jiang Chen smiled, looked at the white meat in front of him, and suddenly said: "Wen Quan, can you give me some of this piece of white meat? By the way, you can sell me two bottles of spirit expelling spray and spirit attracting spray."

"Also, help me contact Xiao Yan and ask him to come to this address if he is free tonight."

…

"Xiaochen, are you still staying here tonight? I'll prepare dinner for you."

Seeing Jiang Chen come to the orphanage again, Dean Leng's eyes flashed with helplessness and said: "There have been a lot more patrols in the surrounding area recently, Xiao Chen, you don't have to worry."

Perhaps because of the reports from Xiao Yan and Wen Quan, the patrols in Lingyin City have been significantly intensified, especially in these corners that are usually ignored, which are the top priority.

"I see."

Jiang Chen nodded, then took out a bottle of exorcism spray and handed it to Dean Leng, saying: "Dean, after dark, you spray this around the doors and windows. Remember not to go out, do you understand?"

"Xiaochen, you...I understand."

Dean Leng seemed to notice something, but after seeing Jiang Chen's firm eyes, he still took the spray.

"Xiao Chen, be careful yourself."

"Um."

Jiang Chen nodded slightly, and then came to the abandoned path behind the orphanage.

It was getting dark now, but there were still no traces of stray cats and dogs here, and it was eerily quiet.

Jiang Chen walked along the path for a while, and finally selected a place. He took out the glass bottle containing the white meat, opened the lid and sprayed some spirit-inducing potion on it, and then hid far away with his fortune.

Da da?

Smelling the scent of the spirit-inducing potion, he became excited about getting rich again, but after seeing the piece of white meat, a look of disgust suddenly appeared in his round eyes.

"Get rich and you hate that piece of white meat?"

Jiang Chen was a little surprised. According to Wen Quan, most creatures should not be able to resist the temptation of this kind of white meat. Unexpectedly, he found that he was not interested at all.

Da da!

Facai nodded vigorously, and then used his paws to draw the shape of a gold coin.

"I know you like eating gold coins the most."

Jiang Chen couldn't help but laugh when he saw this. After thinking about it, he took Fa Cai into the farm together.

The white silver flower bones on the fruit trees still look like that, forming a sharp contrast with the bronze mutated life core on the side.

"It's really not long at all."

Jiang Chen shook his head helplessly, then took out two golden life cores and buried them under the fruit tree. Soon four black iron mutated gold coins appeared on the fruit tree.

He exchanged these for the life cores he obtained two days ago. Although he wanted to exchange them for bronze mutation life cores, due to his lack of money, he only exchanged them for two black iron mutation life cores.

"To make a fortune, eat these four gold coins together and see if you can enter an overload state."

Da da!

When he heard that there were gold coins to eat, Fa Cai immediately cheered and ran out. In just the blink of an eye, Fa Cai ate all four gold coins.

After eating four black iron mutated gold coins at the same time, the golden thread behind getting rich suddenly brightened, but it was still not overloaded.

"Let's do this for now."

Jiang Chen glanced at the mutated bronze gold coin, thought about it, and left the farm with his fortune.

The path was still quiet, but some subtle movements could still be heard.

Jiang Chen immediately took Fa Cai and found a hidden corner to hide it. At the same time, he took out another bottle of exorcism spray and sprayed it on himself, then stared firmly in the direction of Bairou.

Because of the spirit-inducing spray, some mosquitoes were also attracted and flew into the glass bottle.

But they obviously had no luck with this piece of evil white meat. As soon as they got close, they were swallowed by the tentacles emerging from the white meat.

"Is such a dangerous thing born naturally or man-made..."

Jiang Chen frowned slightly, wondering how many such white meats existed in Lingyin City.

Zhizhizhi~

At this moment, a subtle rat noise attracted Jiang Chen's attention. Jiang Chen immediately slowed down his breathing, hid himself more secretly, and prepared for a fight at the same time.

Soon, in a dark corner, several big gray mice ran out. After smelling the scent of white meat, they rushed to pounce on them.

"There are indeed a lot of rats hiding in this place!"

Looking at the mice fighting for the white meat, Jiang Chen's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light.

The reason why he asked Wen Quan for such a piece of white meat and the spirit-attracting spray was to lure out the rats nearby and get rid of them once and for all.

Soon, the mice decided the winner. After one mouse ate the white meat, its strength immediately increased and it easily tore apart other mice and swallowed them as food.

After swallowing the flesh and blood, the size of the remaining rat also expanded a lot, but it still did not reach the level of aberration.

The white meat Jiang Chen asked for was only a little bit, even smaller than the piece he found from the scalded rat corpse, and it was not enough to cause distortion.

After all, this place was near the orphanage, and Jiang Chen didn't want to create a threat with his own hands.

But at this moment, a twisted black shadow suddenly emerged from the ground and bit the rat's neck.

It's a deformed rat!

Da da!

Seeing the abnormality appear, Fa Cai immediately wanted to take action, but was stopped by Jiang Chen.

"Wait a minute, the real owner hasn't come out yet..."

Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and kept looking around.

What he wants to bring out today is not only the mice, but also the "ghost" of unknown origin!
