The villain helps me build infrastructure

Su Qiuyan also knew that people from Tianyuanzong were coming soon.

Every season, they would bring a large amount of supplies to the small towns under their jurisdiction to exchange for precious things such as spirit stones. Now it will be September soon. After changing the supplies this time, it will be winter again.

So this time, Qingzhou City had to exchange food and daily necessities for at least two months.

Xie Ang was still calculating carefully at the side, but after all the calculations, their spirit stones were all far behind.

"Actually, the difference is not much. If you bear with it, you should be able to last through November."

Although they have now discovered a new mineral vein, the people from Tianyuanzong came a little too early.

According to the past practice, among these small cities in the east, Qingzhou City is always ranked last, and the envoys should arrive here at the end of September.

It's just that people from Tianyuanzong came to them first this time.

It’s weird.

At least Xie Ang felt very strange.

It stands to reason that Qingzhou City is no longer under the jurisdiction of Tianyuanzong. Even if Tianyuanzong is willing to continue to provide them with supplies, there is no need to be the first to come to them.

Qingzhou City does not have such a big face.

However, the absence of Qingzhou City does not mean that their city lord does not.

Xie Ang secretly looked at Su Qiuyan who was sitting on it.

Could it be that Tian Yuanzong was the first to come here to exchange supplies for the sake of the city lord?

But soon Xie Ang dispelled this speculation, if their city lord really had such a face, they wouldn't worry about Lingshi anymore.

Su Qiuyan, who had all the spirit stones on his body being fooled away by the masters, put down the post sent by Tian Yuanzong.

He is not surprised that Tian Yuanzong will be the first to come to Qingzhou City.

He doesn't have much face, but his masters do.

Although his masters only knew to cheat him.

Su Qiuyan sighed and said, "How many spirit stones are there?"

Xie Ang wondered: "It only takes half a month for the people of Tianyuanzong to come to us, and there are more than 4000 spirit stones in the library now, plus the amount in the next half month, I'm afraid we can only get more than 5 To exchange two months of supplies, at least [-] spirit stones are missing."

This is the case when the mining efficiency is increased to six per person per day.

Of course, judging from the news from the new vein, six pieces should not be a problem.

I heard that that boy Qin Yue can dig at least ten spirit stones every day. With him as an example, the others seem to have been beaten as well.

But they can't pin their hopes on the unrealistic thing of double or double the efficiency again. You must know that mining is a very hard work. Ten coins a day doesn't sound like much, but it can almost put a healthy young man worn out.

Su Qiuyan also knew this truth, so he said: "Since there are not enough spirit stones, then find something else to exchange food with them."

People eat whole grains, but these things are now monopolized by the major sects...

Although Xianshan also has fine seeds, according to the agreement between Xianshan and the major sects, these fine seeds cannot be sown in places other than Xianshan, so Su Qiuyan has no way to get the seeds for the time being.

He thought for a while and said, "There are a lot of monsters on the edge of the Immortal Continent. The spirit power in the meat of the monsters is messy, and ordinary people can't eat them, but monks can. Is there any precedent for Tianyuanzong to exchange the meat of monsters for food in the past?"

Xie Ang hesitated and said: "Yangcheng next door seems to use monsters to make deals with Lieyangzong every year. If we want to hunt monsters, I'm afraid we will conflict with them."

Monster beasts are the product of the distortion of the heavenly way. Before the distortion of the heavenly way, there were only spirit beasts and no monsters.

The monsters in the center of Xianlu have almost been killed long ago, and only the edge of Xianlu has the specialty of monsters.

Although the spiritual power in the monster beast is messy and violent, it is not suitable for food, but it also has many advantages compared with the spirit beast. For example, the spiritual power in the monster beast is more, so the monster core is more suitable for alchemy. Human eyes, claws, bones, etc. are all good materials for refining weapons.

Therefore, compared to spirit stones, monsters are of course more valuable.

Su Qiuyan said: "Yangcheng's name is not written on the monsters. If they can hunt, we can too. Let's do this. Let most of the monks in the mining area come out, and I will take you out of the city to hunt tomorrow."

Su Qiuyan acted vigorously and resolutely, but Xie Ang's face trembled when he heard the words.

Out, out of town hunting?

Ashamed to say, unlike Yangcheng next door, their monks in Qingzhou have never done anything other than digging out of the city.

And because of the chaotic spiritual power of the mine vein, the monsters would never come close to them, so they had never seen the monsters.

This sudden mention of hunting monsters made Xie Ang feel terrified even if he was a foundation-building monk.

Su Qiuyan also noticed his hesitation: "What, is there a problem?"

Xie Ang stammered: "Almost none of the monks in the city have seen monsters. If they want to hunt monsters, they have to practice their courage first."

Su Qiuyan really did not expect that the people of Tianyuanzong raised the monks of Qingzhou like this!

He can be regarded as spoiled and raised, and because of his health, the masters treated him extra favorably, but even so, he was thrown into the pile of monsters by the masters as soon as he practiced Qi.

When he was only three-headed, he even ran away crying for at least four or five miles because he was chased and killed by a group of monsters!

Unexpectedly, the monks in this remote town, who are so close to monsters, can actually avoid dealing with monsters for the rest of their lives.

Su Qiuyan's face turned completely cold when he thought of the sad childhood memories.

His salted fish is not treated like a monk in Qingzhou City!

Xie Ang also felt ashamed.

Before the city lord came, he also thought about hunting monsters, but when the monks heard it, most of them didn't dare. They would rather starve to death than go out and die under the minions of monsters.

Therefore, it might not be easy for the city lord to lead everyone out of the city to hunt monsters.

But Su Qiuyan has already made a decision: "Leave the city tomorrow, except for the rescue team and the monks who maintain order in the mining area, everyone has to go!"

There are only more than 40 monks mining now. Their efficiency is low, and they are not as good as ordinary people. Instead of letting them work in the mine, it is better to go out and hunt monsters.

Not to mention that monsters can be exchanged for food, it is said that monsters are full of treasures, and can be used to refine weapons and alchemy. If Qingzhou City can develop an industry of refining tools and alchemy, it will be better than all miners.

We must know that labor-intensive industries do more and get less. We still need to develop technology-intensive industries.

So no matter what, Su Qiuyan didn't allow his citizens to kill even monsters.

One of the salted fish in the city is enough.

As soon as the city lord gives an order, naturally everyone must obey the order from top to bottom.

Even though the monks who heard this order all had expressions of disbelief and earth-shattering, they were still under the coercion of the city lord, obediently divided into groups, and prepared to go out of the city to hunt tomorrow.

And Qin Yue also heard the news.

He lowered his head in silence, thinking about the possibility of sneaking out of the city tomorrow.

It's just that he pondered for a long time, but he couldn't figure out a way.

But the voice in his head sounded again: "I can help you out of the city, but you have to promise me one thing."

"What's the matter?" Qin Yue asked cautiously.

"After leaving the city, you are not allowed to go to your city lord. You can only follow my orders to hunt monsters. Can you do it?"

"Hunting monsters?" Qin Yue didn't agree immediately, but asked instead.

The voice in my head chuckled: "You should have learned what a monster is in the inheritance, right?"

"Qingzhou City is located on the edge of the Immortal Land, and the level of monsters nearby are not high. Although you only have the second level of Qi Refining, you can still deal with some newborn monsters."

"The reason why your city lord let so many monks out of the city is probably to let them hunt and kill monsters."

"After all, no matter how high the cultivator is in captivity, it's just paper and useless."

"Well, would you like to go out of town?"

Qin Yue pondered for a moment, then nodded.

If he wanted to get close to the city lord, he would not be afraid of mere monsters.

The next day, Su Qiuyan struggled out of bed early in the morning for some unknown reason, and wobbled to the gate of the city in his flamboyant sedan chair.

He went to look outside the city yesterday afternoon. There is a small hill to the east, and there are many monsters in the refining period. Although the monks in Qingzhou City have never seen or killed monsters, but they There are more than 60 people in total, how can they deal with these monsters.

I don't know if anyone will be scared to cry.

For the first time, Su Qiuyan felt that getting up early was not too difficult.

After seeing that everyone had arrived, he said loudly, "I went out of the city today, one is to find the way, and the other is to hunt monsters."

"The monks in the foundation building period lead the way, the monks of the rescue team are cut off, and the rest of the monks walk in the middle. Keep this formation unchanged until they reach the destination."

"Okay, let's go, let me see, among the monks in Qingzhou City, how many of them still remember that they are a monk."

With a buzzing sound, the front door, which had not been opened for decades, slowly opened amidst the flying dust.

And when this group of monks came out of the nest for the first time, Qin Yue also slipped out of the outer city.

"How do you know you can leave the city here?" Qin Yue asked suspiciously.

The voice in my head said: "You don't need to know why, you just need to know how to do it. There is a mountain ten miles to the east, and your city lord should go there too, but we won't go, go west, and try to come back at night , let's go."

Qin Yue didn't move.

"Are you afraid that I will harm you?"

Qin Yue sneered: "Everyone has a purpose in doing things, what is your purpose?"

"My purpose..." The voice paused for a moment.

"I want to see how far you can grow."

Will he be like him, be controlled by his mind, become a demon despised by everyone, and not regain his clarity until he dies, or will he be able to get rid of the temptation of power and walk out of a different life?

He was really, really curious.

Qin Yue didn't speak. The person in his body didn't seem to want him to die, but wanted to help him become stronger.

This is enough.

He made up his mind and crawled into the hole that was buried by weeds. When he came out again, he was already outside the city wall.

The whistling wind hit him, with a breath of freedom and danger, a strange feeling suddenly rose in his heart, which made him unable to stand up.

Looking towards the west, he started running without any hesitation.

Now that something has been decided, he will not hesitate.

Hunting monsters is just the first step.
