Chapter 446: The Birth of the Storage Pocket
Chongguang City was in an uproar all night long, causing a sensation in all directions, and the streets and alleys were full of warriors tracking down the Snake King.

What is strange is that such a huge creature disappeared without a trace and completely vanished in the city.

The only traces left were the streets and houses destroyed during the parade, and a shop that was swallowed up.

I heard that the tenant of that single shop was an old man who sold calligraphy. It's a pity that he died at such an old age.

The terrain of Chongguang City is complex, with cracks and secret passages everywhere. The Snake King can just find a hole and drill into it, like a fish entering the sea.

After searching for more than half a month, the matter finally calmed down and it was confirmed that the object could not be found.

The culprit Zhou You did not leave Chongguang City, but became a guest of honor of the noble families in the city.

"The conditions are simple, please don't despise me, fellow Taoist."

A graceful old man with gray hair pointed to the luxurious courtyard and politely invited Zhou You to walk on the road paved with pure white stones.

Next to him was the 'night watchman', a young man without disguise, wearing a long robe embroidered with gold thread.

He was not actually a night watchman, but disguised himself as one just to find out Zhou You's whereabouts.

The courtyard under your feet belongs to the Guo family, one of the five great families in the city. It is used for the retirement and leisure of an octogenarian in the family. Few people come to disturb it on weekdays.

The octogenarian was the graceful old man in front of him, the man of the Golden Immortal Dao behind the young man.

"My previous attempt was a bit rude, please forgive me!"

The graceful old man was named Guo Liuhe, and the young man was his trusted disciple who served him closely.

"We slaughtered 100 cows and 500 sheep in the backyard. The blood and meat will be delivered later to feed the snake king."

Guo Liuhe said politely, "I also went to see the snake king enter the city. I thought that only a very strong warrior could tame this snake. I didn't expect that you would have such magical powers!"

He sighed, "I thought you mastered the word 'encompassing all things', but now I see you can control wild beasts."

"You have mastered two types of seal scripts. I admire you very much."

Next to the place where they were talking was a vast lake. The snake king was lurking underwater, gurgling and spitting bubbles, causing turbid and turbulent waves, which was very fun.

The cattle and sheep were slaughtered in the backyard, skinned and their limbs cut off, then loaded into a large boat and dumped down from the center of the lake.

The snake king opened his mouth and chunks of meat fell into his mouth, which he ate with great pleasure.

Zhou You withdrew his gaze, took out the iron beans from his arms, picked up one and started chewing.

"Friend Guo, your writing is very interesting. Can you give me some advice?"

"Darkness is like closing a door, isolating from all sounds and sights. This little trick is no match for the Taoist's ability to control the snake king."

Guo Liuhe was obviously envious of Zhou You's writing power, but he had other purposes for this trip.

"My words, Dark, have the following trend..."

Guo Liuhe casually broke off a branch and scribbled on the ground, introducing the seal script without reservation.

The young man at the side was shocked. Is the master crazy? This is the sect's top secret that he will never be able to access in his entire life. How can they hand over everything to an outsider? Will they continue to pass down this sect?
In just a short period of time, Zhou You went from understanding the basics to mastering the character "閣", and gained a deeper understanding of the profoundness of seal script.

but……

"Wait, no need to say more."

Zhou You hurriedly stopped him, "The essence of the text is the secret of each sect. Fellow Daoist Guo said too much. I dare not listen."

He didn't want to listen anymore. If he continued to listen, he would be indebted to someone and he didn't know how he would be able to repay them!

"Daoyou, to be honest, I came to you because of your written power that contains everything!"

Guo Liuhe smiled slightly, "I am willing to exchange the exclusive text 'Ge' for your 'Hidden' power."

So that's it, he was coveting the function of the hungry skin and wanted to exchange it.

However, the source of his hungry skin was his innate hunger, and had nothing to do with seal characters. …

Seeing Zhou You didn't say anything, Guo Liuhe sighed, knowing that this plan would not be easy.

He sent the young man to trap Zhou You with the word "darkness". His original intention was to intimidate him and let him see how powerful he was.

When the time is right, he will release Zhou You and ask for a written exchange.

Text exchange is not uncommon within the Jinxiandao, and it can achieve a result where the sum of the parts is greater than the sum of the parts.

However, some texts are so rare and powerful that it is not uncommon for those who know them to be unwilling to share them.

Guo Liuhe believed that the seal script Zhou You mastered could be used to hide supplies into a small pocket, and its potential for use was immeasurable.

If the plan succeeds, there is a 90% chance of exchange.

Unfortunately, the young man failed to execute the plan effectively, and Zhou You rode the Snake King to break through the siege of the word "darkness", thus completely destroying the original plan.

Zhou You didn't attach much importance to the word "闇", so naturally he wouldn't agree to the request to exchange words.

"Fellow Daoist, can we discuss this?"

Guo Liuhe cupped his hands and said, "This matter concerns the survival of Beixuanzhou. I am not doing this for my own selfish reasons, but for the peace of the Northland."

It turned out that with the massive invasion of the witch tribe, they brought not only witches, but also ferocious beasts, poisonous insects and diseases from the north.

As the front line, Beixuanzhou has borne unprecedented impact, and all cities are facing a precarious situation.

With the war approaching, all parts of Beixuanzhou are preparing for war and dispatching food and fodder. The importance of supplies is unprecedented.

Warriors must also abide by the law of conservation of energy. The price of mastering powerful combat power is to consume massive amounts of supplies.

Food, meat, fruits, vegetables and medicinal materials, the amount consumed increases with the higher the realm. If it is expanded to the army, the amount required is astronomical.

Dispatching so many supplies has become a huge problem, because those who are good at using troops must attach importance to the food supply, protect their own and rob the enemy's.

No matter how powerful a warrior is, if he becomes weak due to hunger, a child with a stick can beat him to death.

Zhou You had a deep understanding of this. He had been to the prison of evil and saw to what extent those vicious people were weakened by hunger.

If supplies were cut off during a war, the consequences would be catastrophic.

"I understand. Fellow Daoist Guo wants to use my abilities to store and transport supplies for Beixuanzhou."

Guo Liuhe nodded and said, "Not bad."

Zhou You pinched his chin and fell into deep thought.

After a long while, he slowly spoke, "Seal script is my lifeblood, and cannot be passed on to others, but..."

“Pockets made of seal characters can be traded.”

Guo Liuhe had been desperate at first, but he was overjoyed when he heard this, "Great, it's worth any amount of money to be able to buy such a priceless treasure."

"Wait a minute, let me introduce it to you. This is a storage pocket, and it can only be used once."

"The advantage is that there is no capacity limit, you can put as much as you want in it, and the interior has the function of preserving and preserving freshness."

"I don't want money in this pocket. I only want to exchange for fragments and rubbings of the Nine Cauldron characters."

Guo Liuhe was a little disappointed when he heard that the pocket was disposable, but he was pleasantly surprised when he learned that the capacity was unlimited.

A pocket that can hold massive amounts of supplies, its strategic value has skyrocketed, and if used well, it can turn the outcome of a battle.

Unfortunately, the other party regarded the seal character as a treasure and refused to exchange it no matter what.
