Chapter 2: Picking up trash: from beginner to expert!
Shi An could feel the remaining sadness and despair of the original owner, but he didn't care much.
If you can't hold the sand, just throw it away.
Looking at myself again, my soul space has been completely closed.
Jiuwei was in a deep sleep, and his natal sword Chengying could not be taken out. The supplies that had been stored for so many years also disappeared with the thunder tribulation.
Only the mantras of the exercises have been kept deep in his memory.
These are the most precious treasures of Xuanqing Sect.
The good news is, the original owner's body is gifted!
The Dantian is as vast as the boundless universe.
It is calm at the moment, but it seems that it will immediately surge with the slightest disturbance!
This is......
"Chaos Spiritual Root!"
She was able to transcend the tribulation and ascend to heaven at such a young age thanks to this chaotic spiritual root that could devour everything and encompass everything.
Chaos spiritual roots are difficult to cultivate and slow to upgrade, but they possess almost all the attributes of other spiritual roots.
Therefore, she is proficient in swordsmanship, weapon refining, formations, and alchemy. Once she grows up, she will be unstoppable.
It's a pity that even a good cook cannot cook without rice.
There are spiritual roots, but no spiritual energy.
At least with her current physical condition, she couldn't feel any spiritual energy in this garbage dump without plants.
The leader of a sect has broken through his defense!
"Why......"
“Cough cough cough!”
He let out a long sigh, and the pungent smell rushed straight to his head, almost choking the master who had just been able to take care of himself.
This setback almost made her lose her mind.
Looking at Sun Qianyu, who was smiling happily as if he had found a treasure, Shi An calmed down again.
Now that you are here, make the most of it.
Man is iron and food is steel.
I feel hungry if I don’t eat a meal!
This feeling of chest touching back has not appeared for hundreds of years.
"Gu..."
A blushing and heart-pounding voice came.
"You must be hungry! I'll buy you some nutrient solution once I sell these third-grade materials!"
Now, she can't even eat.
Thinking of the low-grade nutrient solution filled with the smell of plastic and inferior flavors, she couldn't help but want to retch.
What flavor did you eat yesterday?
The smell of mecha oil? The smell of energy ore? The smell of a first-level star beast?
Are all the interstellar people so hardcore?
Is there no normal flavor?
This is the true meaning of a meal that maintains vital signs!
If it wasn't for survival, she wouldn't eat a single bite!
"Let's make a good living first!"
As a low-class citizen without mental strength on the garbage planet, even if you save money for a year by picking up garbage, you may not be able to eat a meal of natural food.
Thinking of the magical rice and fruits in the world of immortal cultivation, Shi An couldn't help swallowing.
"Wow! There are actually two energy mines in this broken machine!"
"Lucky! It's my luckiest day this month!"
"That's enough for the three of us to eat for a week!"
Sun Qianyu smiled naively, his dark face unable to hide his excitement and excitement.
He is an orphan adopted by Old Wang from the garbage mountain.
Lao Wangtou is a mecha master who was injured and retired from the army.
After returning to Planet 9527, he started picking up trash to supplement his family income, and Sun Qianyu naturally followed suit.
Shi An could foresee that she would have to make a living from this for a long time to come.
But Star 9527 is not entirely a garbage mountain. There are streets, shopping malls, food streets, and even a military academy in the urban area.
"Old Wang said he'll send me to be a mecha warrior next year!"
"Do you know mecha? It's this tall! Three of you! No, five of you!"
"One punch and the rocks will collapse! Even the Zerg and Star Beasts are no problem!"
"But military school is too expensive. Old Wang should save up money to buy a Class 3 purification system to control the radiation in his body. He refuses to do it, insisting that I have at least Class C mental power and should go to the battlefield..."
"But I prefer repairing mechas. Old Wang taught me a lot of mecha repair techniques. You know? The models in the warehouse were put together by the two of us. They're so impressive!"
He was gesticulating as he spoke, and his eyes were shining.
Shi An thought of the lovely disciples of Xuanqing Sect.
Every time those little brats saw her, they were respectful to her, but their eyes sparkled with the same hope for the future and the desire to become stronger.
She was not there for free, so every day she followed Sun Qianyu to learn about "garbage" and this new world.
"This is an energy ore. It's low-grade, but it can still be exchanged for some nutrient solution."
"This material should be usable after polishing."
"If we remelt these pieces, we can turn waste into treasure!"
"Our 18th Military Academy on Planet 9527 has a training ground called Area A. It's bigger than a garbage dump. There are alien star beasts there, supposedly for training cadets. The strongest one is a Level 3 star beast, the size of a small starship!"
"Do you think I can win if I drive a mecha?"
"I don't know about others, but you should be able to do it."
This is the first time Shi An has spoken so much in so many days.
His eyes were soft and warm, full of appreciation from an elder for a younger generation, just like the way Old Wang sometimes looked at him.
This made Sun Qianyu feel a little embarrassed.
"Do you think this is okay?"
As he spoke, Shi An dug out a piece of material from the garbage dump.
“!!!”
"Second-level material?!"
"Damn! Shi An, you're so amazing! You're hiding so deep, I wouldn't be able to see you even if you kill me!"
"With this, we won't have to worry about food and drink this month!"
Of course she is powerful. Although her body is disabled, her soul is still that of a powerful person who is about to overcome the tribulation.
Picking up trash? Who are you looking down on?!
Old Wang and Sun Qianyu rescued her without asking for anything in return, so of course she couldn't just sit there and wait for food and clothing to be provided for her every day.
After so many days of recovery, his spirit and soul gradually stabilized.
What we can do now is to solve the livelihood problem first.
Picking up trash is her new beginning in the interstellar world, and the huge garbage mountain is her treasure hunting ground.
In her eyes, the energy in these materials is an ice-blue ball of light. The higher the quality of the material, the brighter it is.
It's completely different from others digging around aimlessly.
From beginner to proficient, Shi An picked up more and more things, and the quality became higher and higher.
Old Wang looked at what they took out, his eyes changing from calm to surprised, and gradually to speechless.
He has been picking up trash for most of his life. Is this job so easy now?
