I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

After obtaining the mission information, Lu Xuan rented a spiritual crane and came to the Beast Taming Hall without staying any longer.

He asked his fellow disciples in the Beast Taming Hall about the specific habitat of the spirit crane, walked around several mountain peaks, and found a vast swamp.

The water swamp covers an area of ​​hundreds of acres. At this time, hundreds of cranes are living here. Many cranes have white feathers and elegant postures. They are playing with water plants in the water swamp, or stretching their wings in the low air. Lu Xuan After searching for a long time, I saw a pair of cranes with long necks entwined and their ears and temples touching each other.

As if sensing Lu Xuan's arrival, a monk flew out from the depths of the water. He had dark skin and was at the ninth level of Qi training.

"This junior brother is very polite. I am Xu Yi, the manager of this swamp. What do you call me, junior brother? But you are here to solve Linghe's fertility problem?"

"Hello, Senior Brother Xu. I'm Lu Xuan. Just as Senior Brother said, I received the crane birth mission in the General Affairs Hall. Come and have a look at the crane habitat."

"It turns out to be Junior Brother Lu. You've had a hard time coming here. Come with me to rest for a while."

When Xu Yi heard this, an eager smile appeared on his face, leading Lu Xuan to shuttle through the water.

Half a moment later, the two came to a wooden building. The building area was not large, with only three or four cabins, but the environment was good, surrounded by water and with a good view.

"Senior Brother Xu, are you raising all the spirit cranes in the sect by yourself?"

After the two chatted for a while, Lu Xuan asked curiously.

"Haha, I'm not the only one, but I am mainly responsible for these cranes."

"There are only a small number of spirit cranes in the water. Most of the spirit cranes are now staying in various sects, carrying fellow sects and earning some spiritual stones for the Beast Taming Hall."

"When night falls, they will basically return to the swamp. Only a few spirit cranes are still guarding important places in the sect."

Xu Yi, who had dark skin, smiled.

"Are there hundreds of cranes in the swamp or just a handful? Then the total number must be at least a thousand, right?"

Lu Xuan asked in shock, surprised by the large number of spirit cranes.

"The most recent census of cranes counted more than 2,300 cranes. However, this is already the lowest number in history. I remember that when I first took over this swamp, there were more than 3,000 cranes in it. head."

"The major sects have a relatively large demand for spirit cranes. Whether it is for communication or transportation, they are good candidates."

Xu Yi explained.

Lu Xuan was convinced that the sect was vast and vast, with just one Thousand Dragon Lake stretching for hundreds of miles.

Most of the outer disciples do not have flying magic weapons, so how to shorten the travel time is a huge problem for them.

Although monks in the realm of Qi training have mastered light body techniques or possess speed-type talismans, their speed is relatively slow and consumes a lot of money, which is not very cost-effective.

Linghe can solve this problem very well. It is extremely fast and not weaker than some flying magic weapons. Regardless of distance, it consumes one spirit stone each time, which is within the tolerance range of high-level Qi training monks.

"With so many cranes, how can we get the food we usually eat?"

Lu Xuan is very interested in how to raise a large number of cranes.

"It's easy to solve the problem of food. Let them find some spiritual grass roots, young leaves, or spiritual clams and snails in the water."

"The Beast Taming Hall will provide some specially cultivated spirit insects from time to time to feed the spirit cranes."

Xu Yi asked casually.

"..."

"Linghe earns so many spiritual stones, so why should he feed them these things?"

Lu Xuan was speechless. There were more than 2,000 spirit cranes in the Beast Taming Hall. Each crane earned an average of several spirit stones per day. It was estimated that it would be no less than 7,000 or 8,000 spirit stones per day.

Such a gold-absorbing spiritual beast actually has to go to the swamp to find food by itself?

Moreover, there are so many spirit cranes crowded in this swamp. If you rush forward, you may bump into several of the same kind. This is also a considerable constraint for the spirit cranes soaring in the sky.

"I worked hard to earn spiritual stones, but in the end I didn't have enough to eat and lived in poor housing. All of it went into the pocket of the Beast Taming Hall."

"This is the blessing of working cranes. They have no hope at all in life. No wonder they don't want to have children at all."

Lu Xuan sighed at the black-heartedness of the monks from the Beast Taming Hall, and understood Linghe's choice very well.

The two chatted for a while, and then another young monk came to Shuize. After talking, Lu Xuan learned that the young monk was named Zhou Zhengqing, and he also came for Linghe's fertility problem.

Some tasks in the General Affairs Hall have a limit on the number of monks, while others do not. For the Linghe Fertility Task, there is no limit on the number of monks.

"Junior Brother Lu and Junior Brother Zhou should be the two who have taken over this task. In the next few days, we will work hard to help solve Linghe's fertility problem."

Xu Yi straightened his expression and said seriously.

“Spirit cranes are widely used in Tianjian Sect, but these cranes raised by the Beast Control Hall are now facing a big problem. The number of cranes willing to give birth is getting smaller and smaller, making the total number of cranes have been on a downward trend in recent years. "

"Especially this year, there are nearly 20% fewer pregnant cranes than last year. If this continues, the sect will soon not have enough cranes to carry monks."

A trace of worry appeared on Xu Yi's face.

"There is another issue that needs attention. Among the spiritual cranes, the number of female cranes that refuse to give birth is obviously smaller."

"Due to the long pregnancy cycle, hatching and raising young cranes requires a lot of time and energy, especially during the pregnancy stage. Pregnating crane eggs will cause damage to one's own spiritual power. All of this is the main reason for the decrease in the number of cranes."

"Even when the cranes are in heat, it can be clearly seen that the desire for mating is severely reduced. Many cranes would rather go out to earn spiritual stones than stay in the water to give birth to new cranes."

Xu Yi explained Linghe's situation in detail to Lu Xuan and the others.

After hearing this, the two were silent for a moment, seeming to be thinking about a solution.

"Senior Brother Xu, I feel that the reason for the current situation is not the objective difficulty of fertilizing the cranes, but their subjective unwillingness to have children, so it is best to start from this aspect."

Lu Xuan said first.

Having experienced his past life, he felt the same way about Linghe's choice.

"Junior Brother Lu, what you said is a bit mysterious."

Zhou Zhengqing on the side heard what Lu Xuan said and couldn't help but retort.

"They are just some evil beasts. Life and death are in our hands. How can they choose whether to have children?"

He turned to look at Xu Yi and said with a smile.

"Senior Brother Xu, I suggest taking a simple and direct approach to force those cranes to reproduce more, thereby increasing the number of cranes."

"It just so happened that I accidentally came across a side sect technique, which is similar to the technique of dual cultivation, which can stimulate the lust of spiritual beasts. There is also a method of preparing love drugs. Under the action of the two phases, it is guaranteed to cause the spirit cranes to reproduce in large numbers, in one fell swoop. Increase the number of cranes."

"Really? Junior Brother Zhou actually has such a good idea?"

Xu Yi's eyes lit up when he heard this.
