Chapter 79: Snow Puff Dog

"By the way, you have never left Xiancheng. Have you noticed any abnormalities in Xiancheng recently?" Su Huchen asked again.

"Speaking of abnormalities, there really is one, but I don't know if it counts as an abnormality." Su Jin thought for a moment and said.

"What abnormality is it? Tell me." Su Huchen immediately asked.

"I often operate in the area outside the eastern city of our Xiancheng, after all, it is close to my home, ha. I am not very clear about other surrounding areas.

I found that the number of mortals who fell ill and died this year is much higher than in previous years." Su Jin said.

"What?" Su Huchen was greatly shocked. Then he immediately frowned and said, "That doesn't sound right. If too many mortals die, the patrol team outside the eastern city would report to our Inspection Bureau."

"I don't know if you received any reports on your end. But indeed, more mortals died this year than last year. Just take the few street blocks I am familiar with; last year, only about forty people died of old age or illness in total, but this year, in just a few months, more than one hundred have died.

I also heard that most of those mortals died from illness.

The initial symptoms seemed like typhoid, then the person would grow weaker day by day. Taking medicine did no good; within one or two months, the person was gone.

Moreover, this illness seems to be contagious. Some mortals, even if infected with this typhoid, could recover on their own by drinking ginger soup or hot water at home. But some couldn't; once they fell ill, there was no escape."

Su Huchen was startled upon hearing this.

"Now I understand why I was suddenly transferred back. They were waiting for me right here." Su Huchen directly rolled his eyes. "Fortunately, you told me about this; otherwise, I wouldn't know how far the situation would develop before I discovered it.

The people in the Intelligence Bureau must have a major problem."

"In short, you probably inherited a hot potato!" Su Jin looked at him with some sympathy.

"Right, are you familiar with the Muwu Tribe?" Su Huchen asked again.

"Do you think a small figure like me could be familiar with the Muwu Tribe?" Su Jin pointed at his own nose and retorted.

What are you thinking?

Could he pay attention to the Muwu Tribe far in the deep mountains?

"I guess you don't know either. Did you see the monsters at the forest farm?" Su Huchen asked.

"Do you mean the big monsters or the small monsters?" Su Jin quickly asked.

"The small monsters. We found the corpses of about ten shriveled small monsters in one place at the forest farm. After analysis by intelligence analysts, it was confirmed that the Blood Xue Chiluo ate them." Su Huchen said.

"What?" Su Jin immediately raised his voice. "The Blood Xue Chiluo ate them? The Blood Xue Chiluo can eat small monsters? Isn't it a companion spirit that specifically helps the Muwu people cultivate spiritual herbs?"

"When have the great shamans of the Shaman Clan ever cultivated purely auxiliary spirits?

The Blood Xue Chiluo was created originally for war. Later, when there were no more wars to fight, it was turned into an auxiliary for cultivating spiritual herbs.

The Blood Xue Chiluo has a unique talent, or rather, a unique divine ability.

It can draw the blood or bodily fluids of any creature from a distance.

So you understand how those small monsters died, right?" Su Huchen said.

Su Jin touched his nose; he truly did not expect that the Blood Xue Chiluo had eaten over ten small monsters!!

So that dead girl, Su Jin, must have secretly taken the Blood Xue Chiluo out when they left the city.

As a result, the moment the Blood Xue Chiluo went out, it caused a big trouble for him.

Not only did it wipe out a bunch of small monsters, but it was also discovered by the Inspection Bureau.

"So, did you find that Blood Xue Chiluo?"

"What 'that'? It is a 'Venerable'. We did not find that Venerable Blood Xue Chiluo. It must be that a certain great shaman from the Muwu Tribe passed by that area; the Blood Xue Chiluo he raised was quite gluttonous, saw it, and ate it." Su Huchen directly voiced his speculation.

Su Jin heard this and immediately felt relieved. He also said with schadenfreude, "So, do you plan to go to the Muwu Tribe in the deep mountains to investigate the situation of their great shaman? Didn't the Muwu Tribe say that their last Venerable great shaman died fifty or sixty years ago?"

Su Huchen heard this and directly rolled his eyes.

"What is there to inquire about? The Muwu Tribe has no great shamans anymore, let alone a Blood Xue Chiluo!"

Su Jin heard this and burst out laughing.

"However, if we had the help of a Venerable Blood Xue Chiluo, we might have found the lair of the shadow monsters long ago." Su Huchen said with emotion.

Su Jin pretended not to hear it.

If it was just helping Su Huchen personally, he would be willing to help.

But now Su Huchen is a public official of the Sect. Once the matter of the Blood Xue Chiluo is exposed before them, the entire Xiancheng will spread the news within a single day.

To avoid trouble for himself, he still cannot expose the Blood Xue Chiluo.

"I remember the Sect has a kind of small dog, about the size of an adult's palm, called the Snow Puff Dog. If you get one, what lair can't you find?" Su Jin immediately gave him a suggestion.

The Snow Puff Dog has extraordinary talent in tracking, with amazing abilities.

"I borrowed one, but my senior sister hasn't given me a reply yet." Su Huchen sighed. "The Snow Puff Dog is indeed powerful and has great talent in tracking. But the Snow Puff Dog is too difficult to raise; not only must it be raised from young to old, but its combat power is also extremely fragile. With a slight carelessness, it will be counter-killed by the evil spirits it needs to track.

The Snow Puff Dog has poor reproductive ability. This leads to the fact that within the Sect, a Snow Puff Dog is practically impossible to obtain.

Even to borrow one for use, one has to queue up."

Su Jin heard this and directly clicked his tongue.

"Then do you have any other methods?"

"Let me think. Forget it, let's go eat. After eating, I will think of a plan." Su Huchen said.

"Alright, let's go."

Su Jin thought that solving the case wouldn't take much time for this one meal, so he went out with Su Huchen.

After the two of them had a meal, Su Huchen returned to the Inspection Bureau, saying they would gather again when there was time.

Su Jin thought to himself, with so many broken matters in their Xiancheng, Da Hu Zi probably wouldn't have a chance to come out and eat with him in the short term.

When Su Jin came home at night, Su Jin quickly pulled her into Su Jin's room.

"Last time we went out of the city, didn't you take the Blood Xue Chiluo out?" Su Jin asked.

Su Jin looked at her big brother in surprise: "How did big brother know? I didn't tell you."

"The Blood Xue Chiluo ate some small monsters outside the city. It was discovered by people. Fortunately, your big brother me is smart and covered it up for you." Su Jin bragged.

Su Jin didn't suspect anything at all. "Thank you, big brother. The Blood Xue Chiluo also wanted to go out and play, so I took it out for a walk. I just took it. I won't take it out next time."

Su Jin thought about the special talent of the Blood Xue Chiluo that Su Huchen mentioned.

"Maybe I should take it out after all; at least it would be safer."

"Taking it out of the city isn't impossible, but you must keep a close eye on it. Don't let it run wild and cause trouble."

"Alright, I understand, Big Brother. Thank you, Big Brother," Su Jin said happily.
