Autumn passes and winter comes, and winter deepens again.
This year, Lianyun City, even though it is located at the southern end of Tianyan Prefecture, is extremely cold. The beginning of winter is only January, and the ground is covered with a thick layer of white snow.
These days, Chen Ping lives a simple and happy life.
"Piaomiao Continent Illustrated" sold very well. Guo Zizhao also had some brains and courage. He did not go to the market to sell it at first. Instead, he blocked the information and visited the families in the West District one by one.
After the West District was saturated, we entered Fangshi.
These volumes are exquisite and error-free, even better than the originals, and are very popular.
At the beginning, one book could be sold for 28 low-grade spiritual stones/book.
And demand exceeds supply.
This made Chen Ping make a lot of money.
He continued to output at the rate of three books a day. In two months, he copied 178 books. When the market demand was high, he would release more. When the price dropped due to inflation, he would stop for a while. day.
After all, he has an exclusive monopoly.
There are no competitors.
The only thing you have to worry about is being watched. And Guo Zizhao also had some tricks, making inroads in the east and west, and selling goods in various ways. The market could not tell who was drawing these books, and there was no incident in the whole process.
Plus some good news comes out.
It has been selling well.
In the past month and a half, after deducting Guo Zizhao's 10%, he still earned 39 medium-grade spiritual stones, plus 41 low-grade spiritual stones.
Make a lot of money.
This is the most serious profit Chen Ping has made in a single transaction since he traveled here two years ago.
And it continues to produce benefits.
besides.
He also visits House No. 2 and House 4 from time to time. It has to be said that although his house has a note: "This house is inhabited all year round and there is an ambush inside. Please do not break into the house." ], but it seems that homes are being broken into more frequently than ever.
It's still true...things are unpredictable.
But because "Piaomiao Continent Illustrated" made enough money, Chen Ping was too lazy to protect his house in this way, so he stopped putting poisonous monster meat.
even so.
He also earned 144 low-grade spiritual stones.
In magic.
All kinds of spells have made certain progress.
Especially the newly learned 'Tiangang Thunder', which has been practiced to the level of 'Proficiency: 321/1000'. ', the firepower increased greatly.
'Dead wood comes alive' has been practiced to the point of 'Expert: 111/1000. 'level.
This is a basic spell and is easy to master.
The 'Yunyanbu' also gained some proficiency. He tried it and felt that running at a speed of 80 meters/second should not be a big problem.
Now that he meets Liu Wei again, he might be able to escape from the danger zone without running away.
'Stone Armor Technique' has reached 'Mastery: 230/1000. '
I haven't practiced much with the 'Qingyun Body Shield' since I started using it. It has always been in the process of 'an old cow pulling a slow train', and it is still at the 'entry level' level.
at the same time.
As the cold wind howled, Lianyun City was buzzing with two pieces of news.
Good news.
A bad news.
The bad news is that Lianyun City has been affected by the damage to the spiritual veins of the Qingyun Sect, and its spiritual energy has gradually declined.
I'm afraid it will be exhausted in another year and a half.
Chen Ping finally understood why the speed of absorbing spiritual energy had obviously decreased in the past few months. He originally thought it was due to the late stage of Qi training.
It turns out not to be.
For this reason, he took an extra Qi-Building Pill every day to make up for the impact of the decline in spiritual energy.
His current spiritual stones are enough.
There is good news too.
After more than half a year of hard work, several major families sent out countless vanguards, and finally got a glimpse of the surrounding forest before the heavy snow closed the city, and planned a route out of Lianyung City.
Just wait until spring begins and the ice and snow melt before setting off.
The difference is that the five major families have gradually divided into factions. The Ning Mansion and the Wang Mansion are one faction. The route to withdraw from Lianyung City is to the north, and the ultimate goal is to reach a sect boundary in the north.
The Liu Mansion and the other two manor houses felt that this route was too long and too risky, so they decided to head east to a sect east of Qingyun Domain.
Because the retreat plan was spread, the entire Lianyun City was in a state of uproar, and everyone saw hope in despair.
This winter is cold but warm.
The long-lost warmth.
But there are also some forces that are becoming more and more crazy and begin to use any means to seize all resources, both openly and covertly.
Chen Ping has been living in seclusion for two months and rarely goes out, but he has not encountered any troubles.
At this moment, it's snowy outside.
inside the house.
The flame of the oil lamp danced.
After experiencing a battle, Chen Ping lay on the bed, looking at the rafters and thinking about the future, while Yu Lingchun snuggled softly in his arms.
She rubbed her little face against Chen Ping's chest and hugged Chen Ping tightly.
"Cat demon?"
"whee!"
"..."
"Husband, shall we leave after spring begins?" Yu Lingchun said softly.
Chen Ping hummed:
"It's time to leave. There is no point in continuing to live in Lianyuncheng. Even the spiritual energy will soon be exhausted."
Seeing that Yu Lingchun just said 'hmm' and didn't ask the next question for a long time, Chen Ping thought to himself that this girl is really big-hearted, and said with a smile:
"You don't care where we go?"
Yu Lingchun's urn sound:
"I don't care, I will go wherever you go."
Chen Ping smiled, but remembering how she had carefully read through "Piaomiao Continent Illustrated" before, it suddenly became clear... How could she not care about where to go next? How could any girl not be curious? She may just not want to interfere with her man's decision-making.
Which family will you leave with? ...He thought about it, but he didn't really understand it.
The decision-making of the two families has its own merits.
Route to Ningfu:
Advantages: The probability of encountering evil spirits and monsters is low.
The route to Ning Mansion and Wang Mansion mainly goes to the north. According to the conclusion of half a year of exploration, the monsters and evil spirits in the northern forest are less affected by the actions of the demon cultivators last year. Just avoid them carefully and don't easily anger or enter them. territory, the probability of being attacked will be much lower.
Disadvantages: long distance.
Going north is sparsely populated, and the distance to the next sect is about 1,500 miles. There are some mortal countries or cities on the way, but they are only suitable for a short stay.
This distance is really not close to the large and mighty migrating troops.
Route to Liufu:
Advantages: short distance.
Going east, on the one hand, you can take a slight turn to see the situation of Qingyun Sect. On the other hand, even if you continue walking east, the distance to the next sect is only about 900 miles.
It is 600 miles shorter than Ningfu’s plan.
Almost less than half.
Disadvantages: There are many monsters and evil spirits.
The route heading east, the distance from Lianyun City to Qingyun Sect, has been explored by predecessors. There are a lot of monsters and evil spirits, which are difficulties that must be overcome when going east.
Both routes have their own advantages and disadvantages.
'Find a suitable opportunity to go to Ning Mansion and Liu Mansion to understand the situation. ' Chen Ping thought to himself.
My two families have had some interactions in the past, and both of them once invited me to be their guests.
Just refused.
There's still time, spring starts in a month and a half, so we need to plan carefully!
...
