Dragon and Tiger Taoist

Xianlai Inn, another courtyard, Zhang Chun is practicing calligraphy with one stroke, Zhang Zhong is reporting his gains to Zhang Chunyi.

"Master, there is not much news about the ghost in Laowangzhuang. I only know that a casual cultivator accepted the reward before and never came out again."

Lowering his head, Zhang Zhong told the information he had collected.

He separated from Zhang Chunyi before, on the one hand to tie up the situation, and on the other hand to facilitate the collection of more intelligence.

Official information is indeed the most accurate, but anecdotal information may not be entirely useless.

Hearing this, Zhang Chunyi was noncommittal.

After taking a look at Zhang Chunyi's expression, Zhang Zhong mentioned something that would interest Zhang Chunyi.

"The Rare Beast Pavilion has organized a rare beast auction tonight. It is said that there will be several exotic beasts up for auction."

Hearing this, his writing paused, and Zhang Chunyi's face showed a hint of interest.

The so-called exotic beasts refer to beasts with unusual features. According to Zhang Chunyi's knowledge in his previous life, they are individuals with genetic mutations.

Immortal cultivators use monsters to cultivate immortality, and among monsters, beasts are the most common ones. After all, beasts are born with spirits, and the probability of becoming monsters is much higher than that of dead things.

Under such circumstances, some rare beasts are naturally sought after by people. Many people are even proud to raise a rare beast, and it is common to compare with each other. However, most of these people are wealthy businessmen and dignitaries among mortals. In fact, the cultivators of immortals Not many, because even the rarest beasts, no matter how precious they are, are just wild beasts, not monsters.

However, sometimes immortal cultivators will also try to feed one or two strange beasts, because there have been several very powerful strange beasts that turned into demons in the world of immortality.

"This is the auction list, Master."

Seeing that Zhang Chunyi was indeed interested, Zhang Zhong took out a gilded directory from his arms.

The Precious Beast Pavilion is a chamber of commerce whose core business is the collection and auction of rare and exotic animals. It is rumored that it has a background from the Beast King Sect, and its industries are spread throughout the Dali Dynasty.

Under normal circumstances, in order to maintain the attraction of the auction, the Treasure Pavilion will not give out a specific list before the official auction, but will only release some news that seems to be true or false.

However, Zhang Zhong is a martial artist after all, so he can still get an auction list from the Precious Beast Pavilion in Changhe County.

After taking the directory and looking at the paintings and recorded information on it, Zhang Chunyi's eyes froze at a certain moment.

"The paradoxical Thunder Lord is a bit interesting."

Looking at the lifelike painting, Zhang Chunyi felt a surge of unruliness coming towards him.

"Tell the Precious Beast Pavilion that I want this exotic beast."

With his fingertips resting on that page, Zhang Chunyi spoke.

Hearing this, he raised his head and glanced, his eyes paused slightly, and Zhang Zhong responded in a low voice.

I saw a picture of a white-haired ape on that page of the directory, with extremely long arms hanging down to the ground, grinning, and a thunderous face. There were strange phenomena. There were two flesh marks between the eyebrows and the corner of the forehead, which were bifurcated and looked like old scars. , and shaped like antlers, with six ears on the back of its head.

"Yes, Master."

Looking away, Zhang Zhong remembered the information about this strange beast in his heart.

Although this strange beast was sent for auction, and under normal circumstances it is possible to obtain this strange beast only through competition at auctions, there are always some privileges outside the rules, and Zhang Chunyi happens to be a privileged person.

"By the way, what's going on with my senior brother?"

With his heart moved, Zhang Chunyi simply put down his pen.

Hearing this, Zhang Zhong shook his head.

"No, Nie Changliang and his Medicine King Gang have been calm during this time, as usual."

Knowing the relationship between Nie Changliang and Changqingguan, and what the martial artist Zhao Shan had done before his death, Zhang Zhong had actually been paying attention to Nie Changliang. After entering the city, he made a special investigation, but found nothing unusual. .

Hearing this, Zhang Chunyi raised his eyebrows slightly.

"No abnormality? This is the biggest abnormality."

"Although Chang Qingzi's death came out a little later because I blocked the news, but since they dare to directly issue the demon elimination order to Changqing Temple, it means that they already know that Chang Qingzi is dead. Under such circumstances, They dare not touch me directly because they are concerned about the Zhang family in Pingyang, but why should Nie Changliang and his Yaowang Gang?"

The words were low, and a sneer appeared on Zhang Chunyi's face.

The Yaowang Gang occupies 70% of the medicinal materials business in Changhe County, which is an astonishing wealth. The reason why the Yaowang Gang has been able to achieve this is not only because of its own extraordinary methods, but more importantly, because of the Changqing concept. Its backing, Changqingguan, is now gone in the eyes of outsiders. Why can the Yaowang Gang still occupy such a huge benefit? How can other people not be jealous?

You must know that cultivating immortals is a matter that consumes extremely wealth, and the lower-level cultivators are deeply entangled with the common people. Faced with such a fat guy from the Yaowang Gang, how could Bai, You, and even the county government not be tempted at all?

They still need to consider Zhang Chunyi's identity when attacking Changqing Temple directly, but they have no such concerns when facing the Medicine King Gang.

Hearing Zhang Chunyi's words, Zhang Zhong's expression changed slightly.

"Master, I was negligent. I will go check it out immediately."

His face turned gloomy, and Zhang Zhong was about to withdraw, but Zhang Chunyi waved his hand to stop him.

"In addition to Nie Changliang, please check for me a Taoist named Ma Tu, especially the horse-like monster he refined."

"Compared to Nie Changliang, this person is more important."

As he talked, thinking of the news he heard in the morning, Zhang Chunyi's thoughts were floating in his mind.

If it's really what he thinks, Nie Changliang really doesn't mean anything. Even if there's something fishy behind his back, it doesn't matter, just use force to suppress others.

Hearing this, Zhang Zhong felt a little confused, but he immediately nodded in agreement.

After Zhang Zhong left, Zhang Chunyi wrote the words "Thunder God" and "Longma".

After a short pause, Zhang Chunyi took a deep breath and wrote another word "武", which penetrated the back of the paper.

Time passed, and at night, it was raining lightly, and there were water drops in his hair. Zhang Zhong hurriedly walked into the other courtyard.

"Master, that strange beast is gone."

Arriving in front of Zhang Chunyi, Zhang Zhong's sallow face was filled with shame.

"Gone?"

Zhang Chunyi was quite surprised when he heard this.

"That strange beast was sent to the Rare Beast Pavilion for auction by a monkey charmer. According to the agreement, the monkey charmer would send the strange beast there in the afternoon, but it has yet to arrive."

"Later, I went to the monkey charmer's house with the people from the Precious Beast Pavilion, and found that all five members of the family had been beaten to death, and the strange beasts had disappeared."

Lowering his head, Zhang Zhong gave further explanation.

Hearing this, Zhang Chunyi became interested.

"Killing for money?"

Looking at Zhang Zhong, Zhang Chunyi made a tentative guess.

After hearing this, Zhang Zhong was silent for a while and shook his head.

"The property in the monkey charmer's house was not lost. It doesn't seem like he was seeking wealth or murder. The only thing that disappeared was the strange beast."

"Based on the traces on the corpse, it seems that the person who did it was a martial artist who was good at using arm fists. He was at least very proficient in it. Moreover, he should be gifted with extraordinary talents and innate supernatural power. Otherwise, he would not be able to defeat the Monkey King just by relying on his energy and blood." A hole is blown out of one’s chest.”

Whispering, Zhang Zhong revealed some of his speculations.

Hearing this, Zhang Chunyi's interest became more and more intense.

"Come on, take me to see you."

As he spoke, Zhang Chunyi woke up Hongyun, who had just finished refining the Demon Extraction Pill, and walked out.

Zhang Zhong quickly followed.

There are guests at home, and I want to entertain them, so I took the time to code a chapter. Maybe this is the so-called worldly atmosphere?
