Fu Jingtao suddenly became the registered disciple of the Immortal Medicine Demon. He suddenly rose to the top and became the number two figure in the Medicine Demon's house, causing all the servants to fawn over him.

Yao Mo Mansion occupies a large area. In addition to the courtyard where people live in daily life, there are three large areas: one is a medicinal garden planted with exotic flowers and herbs, one is an animal pond that raises various rare insects and beasts, and the other is dedicated to preparing medicines.

Pharmacy. Fu Jingtao learned basic medical skills in the morning and read medical books. In the afternoon, he went to the medicine garden or pharmacy to verify what he had learned. In the evening, he received acupuncture, soaked in concoctions, and adjusted his breath. His daily schedule was full.

That afternoon, Fu Jingtao took the time to come to the animal pond.

"Hey, what brought the young master here?" Bai Duzhong, who was in charge of the animal pond, came up to greet him with a smile. He was Bai Feng's servant, and he was nearly sixty years old. His cheeks were bulging and he looked kind.

Beneath the mediocre appearance, he actually kills people without calculation, and his greatest pleasure is feeding the wild beasts with fresh human flesh.

Fu Jingtao looked around and said with a smile: "Uncle Eucommia ulmoides, I heard that a king salamander was just delivered, so I came here specially to open my eyes."

Eucommia Bai smiled and said: "Then I will accompany the young master on a tour."

The animal pool has two floors above ground and two underground floors, and is subdivided into nearly a hundred different areas. Special fences are used to isolate hundreds of species of insect beasts to prevent them from fighting and killing each other.

The newly captured Overlord Salamander is about ten feet long, and its body is dark red. It is locked in a cage next to the blue-eyed smoke-eating beast. There are several obvious wounds on its hind legs, and blood is still oozing out. There are no strangers visible.

It couldn't stop growling lowly and scratching the ground with its sharp claws, looking very anxious. Suddenly, the green-eyed smoke-eating beast on the other side raised its neck hair and barked at it several times. The ferocious overlord salamander actually

As if he was afraid, he immediately closed his mouth and shivered in a corner of the iron cage.

Fu Jingtao asked in confusion: "It is rumored that the Overlord Salamander is the overlord of the underground world. Why does this one look so unpowerful?"

Duzhong Bai smiled and said: "The blue-eyed smoke-eating beast is extremely flexible, and the poisonous smoke it spits out is just right to restrain the overlord salamander. Although the two are very different in size, once they meet, it is often the overlord salamander that suffers a big loss. So there is a blue-eyed smoke-eating beast.

When the smoke-eating beast watches, it won't be afraid that the overlord newt will go crazy and make a fuss."

Fu Jingtao's heart moved and he praised: "Uncle Eucommia is really knowledgeable. He actually thought of a way to control animals with animals. It really saves a lot of trouble."

Eucommia leucoma could not help but blush in response to the praise, and she raised her head and said, "I'm not bragging, I know the weaknesses of every poisonous insect and beast here! For example, the colorful poisonous porcupine likes to eat carrion, hates fire, and has the most defense under the ears.

Weak. Just use carrion to lure them to an open area, draw your bow and shoot them from twenty paces away, and kill as many as they can."

Fu Jingtao was overjoyed. As the saying goes, he couldn't find anything even if he walked through iron shoes, and it took no effort to get there. He was secretly worrying about how to get through the layers of poisonous insects and beasts to deal with Li Changyang. If he mastered the principle of interdependence between species,

, won’t we be able to freely pass through the Scorpion Cave from now on?

If he thinks about it further, he can also systematically organize this knowledge and then teach it to Xia Er, Xia Qi and others, which will greatly reduce the mortality rate of blood skeletons. As time goes by, the combat power of blood skeletons will be sharpened.

It becomes more and more powerful, even reaching the point of shaking the Five Elements Hall.

Whether it was to deal with Li Changyang or plan to escape from Scorpion City, he had to rely on the Blood Skeleton. To win the trust of these masters, he had to produce tangible results. Otherwise, how could they easily believe what he said?

everything of?

So, Fu Jingtao then humbly asked for advice. Eucommia leucoma had accumulated many years of experience and no one could talk to it. Now he finally found someone to communicate with, and took him slowly to patrol the animal pond, explaining the habits and weaknesses of each insect animal one by one.

Come on, I really know everything and can tell you everything.

The two of them walked to the deepest part of the animal pool unknowingly. Dim light slanted down from the skylight, and the air was filled with the smell of blood and putrefaction. They saw a row of iron racks and torture instruments standing in the corner, and a naked man was alone.

He was tied to the iron frame, his head lowered, his breathing weak, and his chest and back were covered with bloody marks from whips.

Fu Jingtao asked in confusion: "What's going on?"

Duzhong Bai snorted coldly: "This man is a slave in charge of cleaning the animal pond, but he is so bold as to steal food and secretly feed the disabled people outside! I suspect that he has other accomplices, but he keeps his mouth shut and steals all the food.

Take it all at once.”

Fu Jingtao thought of those skeleton-shaped people who were rummaging around for rubbish. He frowned and asked, "Why are there so many homeless people in the city who are neither human nor ghosts?"

Bai Duzhong said: "Young master, you don't know. Those cripples are all kinds of slaves. They were kicked out by their masters because of old age, frailty or physical disability, but they could not leave Scorpion City. In order to survive, they even killed mice.

Rush to eat."

Scorpion City is a devil's cave that can only be entered and cannot be exited. In addition to the domineering disciples of the Demon Sect, there are thousands of slaves living at the bottom, responsible for all kinds of dirty and hard work, such as mining, construction, feeding cattle and horses, and forging.

Soldiers, etc. Once these slaves lose their use value, they will either be beaten to death or driven outside to fend for themselves.

Although hundreds of new slaves flow in every year, the total number of people in the city always fluctuates within a small range, which means that hundreds of slaves die tragically every year. The disciples of the Tianmo Sect will not have any compassion for this at all - in their eyes

These slaves are purely consumables, as lowly and insignificant as ants, and they don't care no matter how many they die.

At this time, the beast slave slowly raised his head and spat out a mouthful of blood: "Bai Duzhong, you evil-hearted devil! I curse you to die a good death, and you will fall to the 18th level of hell and be tortured!"

Bai Duzhong said: "I worship the demons, not the followers of the Buddha in the Western Regions. I will never have the opportunity to wander in hell in the future. Let me ask you for the last time, who are your accomplices? If you tell the truth, I will reward you!

"

The beast slave smiled coldly, with unspeakable contempt and ridicule: "Hu is a dignified Xuanyuan man. He upholds the way of chivalry. He can cut off his head and bleed, but he will never betray his comrades!"

Fu Jingtao's heart sank, and he quickly raised his hand to stop Duzhong Bai, who was about to get angry, and asked, "Are you a disciple of the Xuanyuan Sect?"

The beast slave said: "Yes, my name is Hu Zhiping! Hu is upright and upright, how can I allow you, a little devil, to humiliate you at will?! Even if I am a ghost, I will not forgive you!" He opened his mouth and bit it hard.

He cut off his tongue, blood surged from his mouth, and he died on the spot.

Fu Jingtao watched helplessly as his classmate bit his tongue and committed suicide. He felt disappointed and sad, but he couldn't show any strange expression on his face. He pretended to be angry and said: "What an unrepentant guy! Uncle Du Zhong, you have to investigate carefully.

Check it out and don't let anything happen again."
