Destiny is ashes

Chapter 387 Helping each other
"Of course there are." Huo Qing didn't pay much attention to this matter. He turned around and helped An Jing search: "There are many granaries in Chonggang Town. If you want to buy some, you can place an order now. It will be a matter of transportation."

"How much do you want?"

An Jing estimated that Linjiang City's current population is around 40,000 to 50,000, which is less than one-tenth of its peak period, but it is still considered a large town.

The granary of Linlang Chamber of Commerce is still well preserved, with at least several thousand tons, enough to supply the residents of the city for several months, but the food needs to be counted, and he is also afraid that the remaining warriors of Linlang Chamber of Commerce will do something, so he needs a new batch of food for emergency use.

After thinking for a while, An Jing said in a deep voice: "Hmm... three, three thousand people for a hundred days? It's for emergencies, not for food."

"That's a lot."

Huo Qing was a little surprised. In his opinion, this was probably the number of people in An Jing's sect: "Assuming two kilograms of emergency food per person per day, the total is 600,000 kilograms."

"According to the current grain prices...it would cost around 10,000 merits."

"That's quite cheap." An Jing raised his eyebrows. The purchasing power of one good deed was about one hundred to two hundred yuan in his previous life. In the Tianyuan Realm, food was actually a relatively scarce product because there was less arable land available.

According to his estimate, 600,000 jin, or 300 tons of grain, would require about 20,000 good deeds, but he didn't expect that only half of that would be needed.

"There is no shortage of food in Xuanye City. Just look at Danlin Town. We have many wood cultivators here. I heard that Uncle Tieshou graduated from the Agricultural College."

Huo Qing has already started to look for the nearest granary for An Jing: "Do you really need 600,000 kilograms? We don't have enough good deeds on our books, so we may need to use Frost Jade to make up for it."

"Need not."

An Jing shook his head. He didn't really plan to spend more than 10,000 good merits to buy food. It would only be enough for one day's emergency needs. He couldn't move more than that. "First, give me 2,000 good merits. If I don't have enough money, lend me some first. I'll pay you back next time."

"What's the point of borrowing it?" Huo Qing laughed, and then placed an order for An Jing: "Anything else you need?"

"Gone."

At this moment, An Jing really felt that it was good to have a friend to help him. If he had to do all these things by himself, God knows how much trouble it would be... He was not a professional, and he did not have a chip, so how could he be like Huo Qing, who could handle everything in a breath? "Thank you, brother."

"It's all little things."

Huo Qing chuckled, and proudly showed An Jing the spirit gathering array beside him: "I have already learned the most basic part of the Taiming Sutra you gave me... The current spirit gathering array has a sixth-level efficiency, which is higher than the common spirit gathering arrays on the market."

"Next time you break through in your cultivation, maybe I will be able to break through to the ninth level. At that time, the efficiency of the Spirit Gathering Array will be barely enough even for a foundation-building cultivator!"

"That's amazing, brother. You really have a great talent in formation."

An Jing was extremely moved at this time. It was absolutely impossible to say that Huo Qing's talent was very high.

Not to mention a monster like An Jing, or the imperial blood of You Ruhui, or the natural spiritual roots and goddess-level fate of Nian Quan and Bai Qinghan. Even compared with the well-trained Gu Yeqi and others, they are probably slightly inferior, and at most are just average.

But even with this kind of mediocre aptitude, with enough experience and hard work, Huo Qing would be able to grow very quickly.

When a dynasty was established, all the civil and military officials were from the same hometown. Can it be said that the fortune of a hometown is so prosperous and has produced countless extraordinary talents? It was just a matter of chance.

Just like what Nian Quan said, those high-level cultivators in big companies and big families may not be as talented as him, but as long as they get enough resources, they can also build the foundation of the Purple Mansion and even explore the Golden Core realm.

I dare not say that Huo Qing’s talent is very high, but as long as the resources are sufficient, at least building the foundation will be no problem, and there is hope for the Purple Mansion!
These friends of mine really help each other. I can help You Ruhui advance, and You Ruhui can also give him a lot of inspiration from classics. The same is true for Huo Qing... This is the power of partners!
An Jing checked Huo Qing's martial arts skills again and found that his progress in this area was slow. His Huangtian method had not yet been fully mastered, and his Houtu method was just getting started.

But this speed is normal, especially since Huo Qing has a solid foundation. Although the progress of Hou Tu Fa is slow, he believes that there will be no bottleneck.

After all, Huo Qing is one of the few people in the two worlds who practices both immortality and martial arts like An Jing. Although the other party does not have a destiny, practicing martial arts with spiritual roots is also a way.

Soon, the food company next door delivered a palm-sized Taixu magic weapon to the warehouse, which contained sixty tons of food. With such simple transportation, it is no wonder that the Tianyuan Realm is so developed in freight logistics even though it is a wasteland revival.

This is because Huo Qing remembered that An Jing's Taixu magic weapon was not that big, so he considerately added a large Taixu magic weapon rental service for An Jing, which could be used to carry Yan Kui. It would cost 100 merits each time, but if it was damaged or not returned within the deadline, he would have to pay 5,000 merits. "I really didn't expect that."

When An Jing saw the Taixu magic weapon, he realized that his perspective was too high and he had forgotten these most practical little things. Huo Qing smiled and said, "An Jing, you are very careful in making big decisions and never make mistakes, but you don't pay much attention to small things... It's my job to help you make up for the mistakes."

At this point, An Jing was ready to leave with the Taixu magic weapon for transporting grain. In order to ensure the smooth flow of funds, he also put down a bag of frost jade, which made Huo Qing think of something: "An Jing, do you have any Yin-type spiritual materials?"

He was a little embarrassed: "My research on the Taiming Sutra has reached a bottleneck. The materials needed for the next advanced array are difficult to collect in the city... This is the classic book of your sect. I think you should have some reserves, right?"

"Okay... Hey, I really have it!" An Jing originally planned to agree and go to the warehouse of the Linlang Chamber of Commerce in Huaixu Realm to have a look later. If he had it, he would definitely not be stingy - but when he flipped through the Taixu magic weapon, An Jing discovered that the Yin Jade he had obtained from the pioneers under the Western Patrol Envoy was still there, and there was also the spiritual gold rewarded by the Dachen government.

These extremely valuable spiritual materials were of no use to An Jing, so he simply took them out all at once and placed them all on the ground under the shocked gaze of Huo Qing, whose pupils were shaking: "Is it enough? Is it enough? If not, I'll go back and take a look later..."

"Enough, enough, enough! Stop taking it!"

Huo Qing raised his hand quickly. He was like a kitten who wanted to eat some cat food but was frightened by the excessive amount of cat food. He was almost frightened by the spiritual material worth nearly ten thousand merits and hid himself. "Ten times, dozens of times! I just need a little bit of these spiritual materials as an introduction!"

"Oh my god, so much Yin Yu Ling Jin, and you're carrying it with you, An Jing, this, this should be known to others..."

Huo Qing raised his hand and closed all the doors and windows of the warehouse, then immediately used the concealment array he learned from "Tips for Warehouse Management" to cover them all, and then he breathed a sigh of relief: "This is enough for me to use to build my foundation. Oh my god, there are so many..."

"Ha, it's like I won't be polite to you and will just tell you what I need."

An Jing didn't care at all. He laughed and said, "Don't be polite with me. Just let me know if you have any needs. Only cooperation can bring win-win results. The stronger you are, the more help you can bring to me."

"Will do."

Huo Qing was overjoyed at the moment. He checked the formation pattern and structure of Yan Kui for An Jing again, and said with a long sigh: "With these materials, I can challenge a higher level formation..."

After both parties finished their business, An Jing was planning to leave Chonggang Town and find a place to return to Huaixu.

But at this moment, in the center of Chonggang Town, an alarm sounded throughout the city.

[Warning: A large number of demon beasts have been detected invading. Practitioners in the surrounding area should enter the city or leave as soon as possible. If they are affected by the formation, the Chonggang Town Government will not bear any responsibility! ]

【warn……】

Although it was an alarm, An Jing and Huo Qing looked calm: "Again? How many times has this happened this month?" "Is this the tenth time? Once every two days, I'm a little used to it."

Chonggang Town is located on the edge of the safe zone and also attracts many monsters. They come to provide alerts every few days. The locals have long turned a blind eye to it and are almost used to it.

"Are you leaving now?" Huo Qing asked, "Are you leaving later?"

"No more waiting." An Jing shook his head: "You should also be careful and be prepared for monsters to enter the city - you should always think a little worse."

Huo Qing said confidently: "I have already prepared a formation to conceal my aura. I am very cautious."

An Jing praised: "The formation master is meticulous."

Without saying much, the two said goodbye. An Jing left before the city gate, found a place, and returned to the Tianyuan Realm.

After An Jing left, Huo Qing returned to the table and continued to study carefully.

But this time, the evil clouds gathering in the distance were slightly different.

Deep within the dark, rolling clouds, a brilliant golden halo lit up, faintly revealing the shadow of a divine bird with a black gold body, two wings and three legs.
