Beast-controlling fairy clan

Because of Liu Shiyun's departure, the Spirit Beast Restaurant now only has one shopkeeper, Zhou Jiasheng, and one clerk, Zhou Chun. Zhou Chun can no longer take as much leisure as before.

However, because the business in the store has been taken away by the Spiritual Beast Pavilion recently, there have been a lot less things in the store, so he is not too busy.

This also made him not know whether to laugh or cry.

"Hey, let's take a look around more. If we can't find a way to win back some customers, I'm afraid there won't even be any need for me as a clerk in the store!"

Thinking of his sixteenth uncle Zhou Jiasheng who was looking sad every day, Zhou Chun felt that he had to do something.

Many shops in this city also have no waiters, and only one shopkeeper supports the shop.

If the Spirit Beast House had fallen to that level, it would have really failed the patriarch Zhou Daoyi's high hopes.

So Zhou Chun often went out to investigate market demand and look for new business opportunities. He even put on makeup and entered the Spirit Beast Pavilion several times to check out the situation.

But business opportunities are not so easy to find, especially for products that cannot be easily imitated by others.

In more than a month, Zhou Chun contacted more than 600 monks but could not find a feasible solution.

At this time, the matter of recruiting disciples at the gate of Qinglian Temple also came to fruition.

Of the three people sent by the Zhou family, only the thirteen-year-old Zhou Zhengcen was able to worship at the Qinglian Temple.

And Liu Shiyun, whom Zhou Chun was not very optimistic about before, actually succeeded in worshiping Qinglian Temple.

After learning the news, Zhou Chun was surprised and hurriedly conveyed the news to Liu Qingshan, who was in "reeducation through labor" in Fang City.

Not surprisingly, when Liu Qingshan learned that his daughter had successfully entered a sect such as Qinglian Temple, he was so excited that he held his hand and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you so much, Fellow Daoist Zhou. Thank you so much, Fellow Daoist Zhou. When my daughter comes back from the mountain in the future, Liu will definitely set up a banquet at Tianxian Tower to thank fellow Taoist friends for their kindness!"

Tianxian Tower is the best restaurant in Hongyafang City. The wine and food are all cooked and brewed with spiritual materials containing spiritual power. It is not a place that ordinary monks in the Qi Refining Period can afford.

Setting up a banquet there, even with the lowest standard, would cost at least hundreds of Ling coins.

As for casual cultivators like Liu Qingshan, sometimes they may not be able to earn so many spiritual coins in a year.

This shows how grateful he is to Zhou Chun at this time.

However, Zhou Chun was currently thinking about how to increase the turnover of Spirit Beast Restaurant, so he just responded with a few words of courtesy and returned to the shop.

But what Zhou Chun never expected was that before he could think of a way to increase the turnover of Spirit Beast Restaurant, bad news came from the Zhou family.

It turns out that Zhou Mingshan, the eldest elder of the Zhou family, has exhausted his lifespan and has passed away!

The Zhou family currently has only four foundation-building monks in total. The departure of the great elder Zhou Mingshan will have a great impact on the Zhou family.

In particular, 80% of the various elixirs produced by the Zhou family were produced by this great elder.

Now that without Zhou Mingshan, the great elder who has cultivated in the late stage of foundation building, the Zhou family's output of pills will probably be greatly reduced in the future.

"It's true that the leaky house coincides with the continuous rain, the boat breaks down, and the wind blows against you. Misfortunes never come singly!"

In the Spirit Beast Room, Zhou Chun and Zhou Jiasheng both looked ugly and felt extremely depressed at the moment.

Both of them can predict that in the future, the [Beast Spirit Pills] and other elixirs supplied by the family to the store will be greatly reduced. This will have a greater impact on the store's turnover than the current decrease in the number of customers. big.

If the competitor Spirit Beast Pavilion publicizes this matter again, the consequences will be even more unpredictable.

After sitting in the store for who knows how long, just when Zhou Chun was thinking about going out for some fresh air, someone came outside the store.

"Welcome distinguished guests, may I ask..."

When Zhou Chun heard the footsteps coming in, he reflexively wanted to say hello with a smile, but when he saw the person coming, he stopped again.

He then nodded slightly and said, "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Luo. Is he here to deliver monster meat to Zhou again today?"

The monk who came into the store was a pockmarked old man over fifty years old.

The pockmarked old man's name was Luo Guangshun, who was at the eighth level of Qi refining. He was one of the monks who supplied monster meat to Zhou Chun every month.

This person is a casual cultivator and has been struggling in the world of immortality for decades. Apart from anything else, his ability to observe words and emotions is naturally not bad.

At this time, when he saw Zhou Jiasheng, the shopkeeper behind the counter, looked wrong, and saw that Zhou Chun, who had always greeted him with a smile, was not smiling at the moment, he knew that he had come at the wrong time.

But now that they are here, he can only bite the bullet and say: "That's it. Can Fellow Daoist Zhou come in and talk about it conveniently?"

When Zhou Chun heard this, he couldn't help but glance at the shopkeeper Zhou Jiasheng.

After seeing that Zhou Jiasheng didn't express anything, he nodded slightly and said softly: "Fellow Taoist Luo, come with Zhou."

After saying that, he took the person to the backyard of the store.

When he arrived at the backyard, which was inaccessible to ordinary guests, without Zhou Chun asking, Luo Guang reached out and patted the storage bag on his waist, took out a sealed hardwood box from it, and opened the lid in front of Zhou Chun. .

Inside this hardwood box, there were three silver-black strange fish ranging from five to seven feet in length. In order to keep these strange fish fresh, a lot of crushed ice was placed.

"Hey, what kind of monster is this?"

Zhou Chun looked at the strange fish in the wooden box, his eyes flashed with surprise, and he immediately stepped forward to pick one up and examine it.

This silver-black strange fish looks a bit like a catfish, with a mouth full of sharp teeth, no scales on its body, and its skin is as tough as rubber. Unwashed mucus can also be seen in some places. In addition, its pectoral and dorsal fins are both It has serrated spines.

"Friend Daoist Zhou, be careful. This mucus is poisonous. It will make your hands and feet numb and painful."

At this moment, seeing that Zhou Chun seemed to be interested in the mucus on the strange fish and reached out to touch it, Luo Guangshun, who had suffered a loss at the side, hurriedly reminded him.

"Is that so?"

Zhou Chun immediately retracted his palm and thoughtfully put the strange fish back into the wooden box.

Then he looked at Luo Guangshun and asked, "Does Fellow Daoist Luo know this kind of strange fish?"

Hearing his words, Luo Guangshun smiled bitterly and sighed: "It seems that fellow Daoist Zhou doesn't know what kind of monster this strange fish is!"

Then he shook his head and said: "Even a monk like Zhou Daoyou who is proficient in the art of controlling beasts doesn't recognize this kind of strange fish. How can a casual cultivator named Luo recognize it?"

After that, Zhou Chun told him the origin of the strange fish without asking any more questions.

"This kind of strange fish was caught by Luo from a deep mountain lake. It was born with the ability to master water magic such as water arrows and water bombs. It is quite powerful in fighting in the water. Luo also spent a lot of time on it. Jin, I just caught these three strange fish!"

After explaining the basic information about the strange fish, Luo Guangshun looked at Zhou Chun expectantly and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhou, you are a fair person. What do you think of the value of this strange fish?"

When Zhou Chun heard what he said, he immediately understood his little plan.

Immediately he waved his hands and said: "Fellow Daoist Luo, there is no need to put a high hat on Zhou. Zhou is not as good as you in terms of practice time. Facing such an unknown monster, I don't dare to say anything casually."

After saying that, he looked directly at the other party and said: "The transaction between Zhou and Fellow Daoist Luo is limited to the trading of monster meat, so whether Fellow Luo gives the whole carcasses of these strange fishes to Zhou, or the mutilated corpses, Zhou can only trade with Taoist friends at the previously agreed price!"

He is rich, yes, but he is not stupid.

Perhaps this unknown fish monster could have some special value, but that was definitely not something he could do now, nor could he do it in a short while.

How could he give Luo Guangshun a higher price to buy the corpse of this monster because of this unknown.

At this time, seeing that he was not fooled, Luo Guangshun was also very disappointed. At that moment, he could only sigh helplessly: "Hey, then Luo will leave the two strange fish corpses for fellow Taoist Zhou, and the remaining one will be taken to the immortal Let’s take a look, maybe they’ll be willing to give you a good price!”

After saying that, he sold the two large strange fish carcasses to Zhou Chun for four spirit coins, and then left the Spirit Beast Studio with the remaining small strange fish carcass.

After Luo Guangshun left, Zhou Chun also had thoughts in his mind. He immediately kept one of the strange fish corpses frozen and put it away. Then he scraped off the remaining mucus from the remaining strange fish corpse, put it in a bottle, and cut some more. Fish skin preservation.

After that, he cut off a piece of fish of moderate size, used purifying spiritual water to remove the turbid and evil spirit in it, and then divided it into several sections, fried or stir-fried, boiled or deep-fried, and tasted them all.

The final taste test results showed that the fish meat of this strange fish has nothing special in taste. It is not even as good as many ordinary fish meat. It just has a little more spiritual power than ordinary fish meat.

This made Zhou Chun completely lose interest in eating the remaining fish, so he chopped it all into pieces and threw them to the silver lightning python as food.

Today's Silver Lightning Python Baibai is more than a year old, and his cultivation level is about to be promoted.

And this was despite Zhou Chun never feeding it any [Beast Spirit Pills].

Looking at it this way, even if no one feeds a wild silver lightning python, it is likely that it can become a first-class high-grade monster within ten years.

It can only be said that the bloodline of intermediate monster beasts is powerful!
