After chatting with people from the Spiritual Beast Sect for a while, I learned from them that the incident of theft of spiritual pets was much more serious than what Xu Qingqing described. In the past two days, there have been a series of disappearances of spiritual pets in the innate realm. From the Special Affairs Bureau until now
We haven't found any clues to the mission yet, let alone caught the culprit.
Lin Xi's mind moved, and his intuition told him that this incident was not simple.
Spiritual pets in the innate realm have already opened their spiritual intelligence, and their intelligence is similar to that of ordinary humans. Some gifted spiritual pets are even smarter, and they should not be so easily abducted by stolen pet gangs.
Then here comes the problem.
How did this pet stealing gang lure out spiritual pets?
This case was full of weirdness, and when he first stepped into the Spirit Beast Sect, he seemed to have sensed something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it.
At this moment, a female disciple from the Spiritual Beast Sect ran in in a panic, with an ugly expression.
"Elder Yumei, the purple electric flame spirit beast is missing."
Bai Yumei, who was complaining to Lin Xi, was stunned for a moment. When she came to her senses, her expression suddenly changed, and she stood up from the chair suddenly, "Isn't the purple electric flame spirit beast in Tiandu Pavilion Dojo?"
Tiandu Pavilion Dojo is one of the main breeding bases of the Spirit Beast Sect and has a top-notch spirit beast breeding environment. Under normal circumstances, the Spirit Beast Sect will select some spiritual beasts with pure bloodlines, good looks and high potential and put them into the Tiandu Pavilion Dojo.
Focus on nurturing.
The Purple Lightning Flame Spirit Beast is a rare dual-system spirit beast of thunder and fire. It has a good bloodline, and is a baby with perfect qualifications and talents.
This purple electric flame spirit beast of the Spirit Beast Sect was brought back from a demon beast lair by Sect Master Xu. After being carefully cultivated by the Spirit Beast Sect, it has reached the late stage of innate cultivation. It is the Spirit Beast Sect's most promising candidate for attacking the golden elixir.
One of the spiritual beasts, it is of extraordinary significance to the sect.
"Just now when several disciples went to Tiandu Pavilion for daily inspection, they found that one of the spiritual beasts in Tiandu Pavilion was missing. The missing one was the Purple Lightning Flame Spirit Beast." The female disciple surnamed Zhang said out of breath.
.
Hearing this, Bai Yumei's face immediately darkened.
The Tianduge Breeding Base is the important place of the Spiritual Beast Sect. Except for specialized breeders and a few elders, ordinary disciples are not allowed to approach it at will. Even a fly can hardly fly in.
How come the purple electric flame spirit beast disappeared for no reason?
"Master Lin, I'm sorry. There is an important matter here that I need to deal with." The elder of the Spirit Beast Sect was in a state of confusion. The disappearance of the Purple Lightning Flame Spirit Beast is not a trivial matter.
"Elder Yumei, can I go and see it together?"
Bai Yumei was startled for a moment. According to the rules of the Spiritual Beast Sect, outsiders were not allowed to enter Tiandu Pavilion, but Lin Xi had a special status and was a guest invited by the eldest lady, so there should be no problem...right?
"Oh well."
About 10 minutes later, Lin Xi and the elders of the Spiritual Beast Sect appeared at the Tianduge Breeding Base.
This breeding base has a large area, but there are not many spirit beasts in it. Most of the spirit beasts are in a free range state.
The spirit beasts kept here often come into contact with humans and are not very afraid of humans.
"The purple electric flame spirit beast's lair is over there."
The breeder who was responsible for stealing food on a daily basis took Lin Xi and the others to the lair opened by the purple electric flame spirit beast.
Not long after, a dark cave appeared in front of everyone.
Due to the recent theft of spiritual pets, when the purple electric flame spirit beast returns to its lair to rest, the entrance will be sealed and will be opened again the next day. However, at this time, the iron fence blocking the cave entrance was seriously damaged, and the purple electric flame spirit beast is also missing.
.
Seeing this scene, the elders of the Spirit Beast Sect turned pale and felt extremely aggrieved.
Lin Xi observed carefully and found that the iron bars at the entrance of the cave were melted by high-temperature flames. It seemed that it was most likely that the purple electric flame spirit beast took the initiative to destroy the iron bars and escape from here.
"The Purple Lightning Spirit Beast has grown up in the Spirit Beast Sect since he was a child. How could he leave for no reason?"
Just when he was puzzled, a confused voice suddenly came from beside him, "Hey, why is there an extra bamboo rat here? We don't seem to have raised bamboo rats before."
"That bamboo rat is eating the food we prepared for other spiritual animals."
"Damn! All the food has been eaten. This is the ration for dozens of spiritual beasts for a whole day."
"Hurry and grab it!"
Hearing these voices, Lin Xi's face turned dark.
When I looked up, I saw a round, spherical bamboo rat that had eaten all the food prepared by the keeper, burped with satisfaction, and licked its paws.
So, Lin Xi said helplessly to the two Spirit Beast Sect disciples, "I'm sorry, this is my novice."
The expressions of the two disciples were stunned, and the eyes they looked at Xiao Bai suddenly changed, and they asked excitedly, "Is this the powerful beast-controlling white rat next to Jiba Sanren?"
"As expected of a spiritual beast raised by Jiba Sanren, even its appetite is much larger than that of ordinary spiritual beasts."
"Can I have a hug?"
According to rumors, the white beast-controlling rat next to Jiba Sanren is very powerful and has a ferocious personality. It once tore the Great Sage Guangfeng to pieces.
Several female breeders looked at the chubby bamboo rat curiously, looking like they wanted to go up and pinch it but didn't dare.
"Xiao Bai, how's the investigation going? Did you find any clues?"
Xiaobai trotted over and rubbed Lin Xi, nodded and said, "Master, I found a few witnesses."
At this time, a majestic golden lion ran over.
Lin Xi remembered that he had seen this poodle when he came to the Spirit Beast Sect before. After a few months of not seeing each other, the poodle's momentum had become stronger and stronger. But for some reason, the poodle's eye sockets were swollen, and it looked like it had just been beaten.
Next to the poodle, there are the old beasts Howling Moon Silver Wolf and Fire Fox.
The people of the Spirit Beast Sect were surprised to see the bamboo rat next to Lin Xi bringing these spirit beasts over and standing in a row, not knowing what to do.
"Did you see that purple electric flame spirit beast go out yesterday?"
Lin Xi's eyes swept over the spiritual beasts in front of him. When his spiritual consciousness swept over these spiritual beasts, their hair stood on end, and he felt that the man in front of him was not easy to deal with.
People in the Spirit Beast Sect were not surprised that he could communicate with the spirit stream.
The ability to be friendly with pets is not uncommon in the Spirit Beast Sect, but they didn't think that they could find clues to investigate these spirit beasts.
"No." The poodle shook his head, and Xiaobai fell from the sky and jumped on its back.
The Prison Suppressing Holy Body erupted, and Xiaobai sat down, directly pressing the poodle to the ground.
"Ouch!" The poodle howled in pain and said with a disgraced face, "I saw it when I went to find Angela last night."
"Who is Angela?"
Xu Qingqing came over and explained to Lin Xi, "Angela is a poodle teddy dog raised by Elder Chen, but Angela has not yet awakened and is just an ordinary pet dog."
Lin Xi rolled his eyes and couldn't help but complain, "Brother, with your size, I'm afraid you will crush that puppy to death."
"Angela and I truly love each other. Size and breed are not problems," the poodle said angrily.
"Angela hasn't awakened yet. What if she does awaken and doesn't like you?"
The poodle thought about it seriously and shook his head resolutely, "No, Angela made a promise with me to grow old together."
"Speaking of which, Elder Chen seems to have taken Angela to breed and have puppies." Xu Qingqing came over to make up for it.
Hearing this, the poodle was stunned for a long time and burst into tears.
"I don't believe it! Angela will not betray me."
Lin Xi patted the poodle on the head and said, "Brother, please be patient. If you want to live a decent life, you must have a little green on your head."
"Tomorrow I will introduce you to a beautiful and cute husky."
He suddenly thought of the husky egg pancake raised by rich man Bo's family.
Although Egg Pancake is also a male, he did not say that the poodle introduced to him was a female.
And the egg pancake is really beautiful and cute.
Well, nothing wrong.
"Really?" The poodle's eyes lit up and he immediately came out of his sadness and said sheepishly, "Isn't this a little bad? After all, I just broke up with Angela."
"Oh. Forget it."
"If you have any questions, just ask, I will answer them honestly." The poodle said quickly.
Then, Lin Xi asked in detail what happened before and after the purple electric flame spirit beast disappeared.
Judging from the poodle's confession, the purple electric flame spirit beast suddenly became extremely manic before disappearing, and it exuded an extremely terrifying aura, as if it had gone crazy.
During the period when the purple electric flame spirit beast was going crazy, no suspicious person approached it.
At that time, the poodle was about to sneak out to find Angela, but was frightened and trembled by the crazy purple electric flame spirit beast. Silver Wolf and Fire Fox also witnessed the process of the purple electric flame spirit beast going crazy, just like the poodle.
"I remembered that the wolf came into contact with the Purple Lightning Flame Spirit Beast before it went crazy!" The lion dog raised its paw and pointed at the Howling Moon Silver Wolf.
"I'm not, I didn't, you're talking nonsense."
Xiaoyue Silver Wolf was startled and shook his head in denial.
Um?
Lin Xi's spiritual consciousness enveloped him, and Xiaoyue Silver Wolf trembled violently as if being stared at by a prehistoric giant beast, and began to tremble involuntarily.
"It really has nothing to do with me. It was the purple electric flame spirit beast that got me a monster bone to express its love to me." Xiao Yue Silver Wolf lowered his head and said.
From the perspective of a wolf, the Xiaoyue Silver Wolf has silvery white hair and a slender body. It can be said to be the whitest and most beautiful among wolf animals.
No wonder the Purple Lightning Flame Spiritual Beast is attracted to the Howling Moon Silver Wolf.
"I know!" Elizabeth's green bean-like eyes lit up, and she clenched her paws into fists and pounded her palms, "It must be that you don't want to accept the purple electric flame spirit beast, and it keeps pestering you. So you secretly poisoned it to let
It goes crazy."
Xiaoyue Silver Wolf was startled and quickly denied, "I didn't!"
"Speaking of which, that coquettish fox also hooked up with the purple electric flame spirit beast and wanted to get the cultivation method from it."
"You little bitch! You are so slanderous. When did I hook up with the purple electric flame spirit beast?" The fire fox counterattacked, unwilling to be outdone, "The poodle is not without suspicion. It fought with the purple electric flame spirit beast. The hair on its buttocks
They were all burned by the purple electric flame spirit beast."
These spiritual beasts got into a quarrel, and the scene was once very chaotic.
At this moment, a flash of light flashed in Lin Xi's mind. He picked up Xiaobai and asked, "Xiaobai, what did you just say?"
"Uh-huh? I said that wolf secretly poisoned it and made the purple electric flame spirit beast go crazy."
Yes, it's poisoning.
Blind student, you discovered Hua Dian!
"The incident of the loss of spiritual pets is a serial crime. Not only the purple electric flame spirit beast but also many spiritual beasts have been poisoned, so it cannot be related to the poodles. What is puzzling is how this pet stealing gang lured the spirit beasts.
The beast left here." Lin Xi analyzed in his mind, "Just now Xiaobai raised a possibility, that is, poisoning."
"As long as some kind of drug that can make spiritual beasts hallucinate is mixed into food and allowed to be eaten by them, it is possible to abduct the spiritual beasts without anyone noticing."
But it's not that easy to get the spirit beasts here to eat mixed food.
Thinking of this, Lin Xi pulled Xu Qingqing and Lu Qingwei aside and told them this reasoning.
"Who are you? Is there a mole in the Spirit Beast Sect?"
Xu Qingqing had an expression of disbelief on his face, as if he did not expect that there would be a traitor in the Spiritual Beast Sect.
"This is just my reasoning, and there is still insufficient evidence." Lin Xi thought for a while and said, "If there is really an insider, it should be a breeder who has access to the food. Let people investigate and they should be able to find clues."
"Leave this matter to me."
Lu Qingwei looked excited, patted her ordinary chest and said.
Due to the disappearance of the Purple Lightning Flame Spirit Beast, everyone in the Spirit Beast Sect became nervous, with expressions of fear and uneasiness on everyone's faces. If this continues, the Spirit Beast Sect will fall apart in a short time.
At this time, the top leaders of the Spirit Beast Sect were busy retrieving the missing purple electric flame spirit beast and had no time to entertain Lin Xi, so they settled him in the room where guests were entertained.
A few hours later, Lu Qingwei ran over to Lin Xi with an excited look, apparently she had found some clues.
"Xiao Linzi, you really guessed it right." Lu Qingwei's eyes sparkled, "The Special Affairs Bureau found that three breeders had financial problems. They had been on more than a dozen lending platforms.
I borrowed a lot of money from the Internet. I owed the money for a long time, but it was suddenly paid off a few days ago.”
"With their salary and family background, it is absolutely impossible for them to repay such a large sum of money in a short period of time. So I suspect that someone is blackmailing them with loans."
Lin Xi rubbed his eyebrows, but he did not expect that there were three moles in the Spiritual Beast Sect.
However, what Lu Qingwei found out through his investigation cannot be used as direct evidence. Everything is his reasoning.
"Also, people at the Miraculous Medicine Research Center have extracted an unknown ingredient from pet food. It's unclear what the exact role of this ingredient is."
Suddenly, Lin Xi seemed to think of something and hugged Xiaobai, who was sleeping soundly on the sofa.
His eyes fell on Xiaobai, and an attribute box appeared in front of him.
