Outside Of Time

In the scavenger camp, the Thunder Team was in front and Xu Qing was in the back.

From a distance, one is tall and one is short, one is old and one is young, but there is still some harmony.

It seems that in this cruel world, such harmony is rare.

Or maybe the python corpse in Thunder Team's hands was a deterrent, so that passers-by who had never been to the Colosseum didn't bother after seeing it.

Xu Qing likes this feeling very much, whether it is eating snakes next, or the sun's face at the moment, it makes him feel warm.

Very comfortable and looking forward to it.

And every time his eyes fell on the python corpse that Thunder Team was holding, he would secrete more saliva from his mouth.

He also likes to eat snakes.

The Thunder Team's home is in the middle of the camp.

Compared with the brick houses in the inner ring area and the simple tents in the outer ring area, the residences in the middle ring area are mostly stone and wood structures, and three huts are arranged together.

Although each room is not very big, it looks much better than when Xu Qing was in the slum.

Especially the Lei team's residence and a small courtyard, which is even more rare.

At this moment, he pushed open the door of the bamboo courtyard, and under Xu Qing's observation and scrutiny, Lei Dui carried the python corpse to the rear room, and then pointed to the second hut.

"Child, you can live there in the future. Get familiar with yourself first, and I'll call you when the meal is ready."

Saying that, Team Lei entered the side room, and after a while, the sound of chopping meat came out.

Xu Qing swallowed and first observed the small courtyard carefully, then walked into the second hut, which contained a bed, a quilt, a table and chairs, and nothing else.

The floor was clean, and the tables and chairs were free of dust. Apparently, they were often wiped, and the bedding was obviously clean, and there was a smell of being exposed to the sun.

All of this made Xu Qing very satisfied.

He doesn't like big houses, he likes the kind of small houses where he can see everything at a glance, as if he can reflect everything in his mind.

This made him feel more secure.

So after checking it carefully, Xu Qing looked at the clean bed, thought about it and didn't go, but sat directly on the ground.

She crossed her knees and closed her eyes, and started today's practice.

During this practice, with the influx of spiritual energy, the sound of boiling oil crackling in the rear room next door could be heard in his ears.

Soon, bursts of aroma drifted in along the stone and wood gaps in the wall, filling the hut and at the same time evoking the shriveled sound in Xu Qing's stomach.

good smell.

Xu Qing's throat moved involuntarily, and she opened her eyes to look in the direction of the tail room.

Having lived in the slums for many years, he can't remember the last time he smelled such a scent.

So he resisted the longing in his stomach, closed his eyes, calmed himself down, and continued to practice.

In this way, time passed slowly, and soon dusk came.

Xu Qing, who had just finished practicing for a day, opened his eyes quickly when the thunder team called for dinner outside the house.

He stood up and walked out of the house quickly, and saw Lei Dui standing at the door of the side room, waving at him.

Following the open space beside Lei Dui, Xu Qing had already seen that there were seven or eight different kinds of snake feasts on the dining table in the house, including fried, braised, steamed, and snake soup.

Obviously, Lei Dui has excellent cooking skills, and he has all the colors and flavors.

Xu Qing glanced at him, his eyes were a little straight, Lei Dui smiled, turned around and went in to pick up the bowls and chopsticks.

Xu Qing also approached immediately, and as he walked into the rear room, the aroma became stronger, but he did not sit down immediately, but after Lei Dui set the table and chopsticks, his eyes suddenly froze.

There are three sets of bowls and chopsticks.

"Anyone else?" No matter how tempting the scent was, with the appearance of three sets of tableware, Xu Qing was instantly isolated from her body.

He cautiously looked at Thunder Team and asked softly.

"Don't be nervous, this is my habit, that's someone... who will never come."

Lei Dui spoke lightly, a flash of reminiscence appeared in the depths of his eyes, then disappeared quickly, and sat on a chair.

Xu Qing nodded, and as he sat down, he couldn't help but grab a piece of fried snake meat and put it in his mouth to bite.

It was very hot, but he ate it very well, and his mouth was full of oil.

As soon as he finished eating a piece, he licked the grease on his mouth to grab the braised snake meat, and Thunder Team coughed lightly.

"use chopstick."

"Oh." Xu Qing picked up the chopsticks awkwardly. After getting used to it, he inserted a piece of braised snake meat and swallowed.

The two of them didn't speak during the whole meal, but the food was very discordant.

Lei Dui chewed slowly, not like a scavenger. He only ate three or two bites of each dish, but Xu Qing devoured it, his food intake exceeded Lei Dui's too much.

Seeing Xu Qing eating like this, Team Lei couldn't help but speak.

"Why didn't you eat the steamed buns in small bites?"

Xu Qing forcefully swallowed the snake meat in his mouth, looked up at Lei Dui, and answered seriously.

"The steamed bun is yours, and the snake meat is mine."

One is to invite others to eat other people's food, and the other is to invite others to eat your own food.

In the simple thinking of the young man, the items that belong to him naturally change their name to be eaten.

Lei Dui could not laugh or cry when he heard the words, watching Xu Qing poking snake meat with chopsticks and drinking snake soup, but also noticed that the young man did not touch the part near him in every snake feast, snake soup. Also drink restraint.

He just eats his portion with confidence.

"Your python is very heavy, it should be enough to eat for half a month, and the snake skin and bones are also of great value, so..." Lei Dui said casually.

"I'll give you the rent, so there's no need to deduct it." Xu Qing suddenly said.

Snake meat is the steamed bun and sleeping bag to repay all the way, and the value of snake skin and snake bone is to repay the other party for covering the tent of the remnant cow.

As for the other party taking him out of the ruins and into the camp, this is a favor and a favor.

Xu Qing felt that it was a bit inappropriate to use material to offset it, so she kept it in her heart.

Team Lei took a deep look at Xu Qing, saw the seriousness in his eyes and the clear-cut thoughts of grievances, so he nodded, and after thinking, he spoke again.

"Child, you must have a lot of guesses about me along the way."

Xu Qing didn't speak, but his swallowing movement slowed down slightly.

"Everyone calls me Thunder Team. As for the name, it doesn't matter. In the scavenger camp, no one will use their real name."

Lei Dui picked up a piece of steamed snake meat and chewed it slowly in his mouth.

"The reason why I have this name is that I have a few friends in this scavenger camp that I can entrust with my life and death."

"We formed our own team. The team's name is rather vulgar, it's called Thunder."

"On weekdays, everyone picks up the work individually. If there is a more difficult task, the whole team gathers to complete it. There are four people in total, including me. Now all three of them have gone out and haven't returned."

"When you come back, I will introduce you one by one. In the future, you will follow us, as a new member of the team, to pick up and earn resources for survival and cultivation."

Team Lei seemed a little full, put down his chopsticks and looked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing was not surprised by the last five words of his words.

Xu Qing felt that he could detect that Lei Dui was a loose cultivator. After being in contact with him for so long, even if he was a body cultivator, he would naturally be able to detect his details under the observation of the other party.

"Okay." Xu Qing nodded and said without hesitation.

This also gave him a sigh of relief. Growing up in a slum, he deeply knew that there is no unprovoked dedication and help in this world, and everything must have a reason.

"You can continue to eat, I'm old, and I can't digest it if I eat too much."

Lei Dui coughed a few times, his face flushed, but he recovered quickly, stood up and walked out, words came out of his mouth.

"The psychic energy in this world is like poison. With the kind of painstaking cultivation you have along the way, it is very likely that you will be alienated before you have gone far. You must practice steadily and not be aggressive."

Xu Qing was silent and did not speak.

The old man who walked to the door, turned to look at Xu Qing, and shook his head.

"But you're right to cultivate like this."

"The scavenger's camp and the restricted area next to it are different from where you were before. Due to the properties in the restricted area, this place is more of a gathering place for low-level scattered cultivators and outlaws."

"If you live here, you must also go to the restricted area for a walk. It's better to practice more."

The Thunder team left.

Xu Qing sat there alone until he ate all the snake meat, and he did not leave immediately. Instead, he cleaned up the tableware, cleaned it and put it away before returning to his hut.

He sat down with his knees crossed and continued to practice.

Xu Qing is very clear that if you don't want to hang on, bend over to survive, and put the right of life and death in the hands of others, then your own strength is the foundation of everything.

Especially in this scavenger camp, there are a lot of loose repairs, more than what he has seen in the past six years combined, and each of them is not a good stubble.

If the slum is a kennel, this is a wolf's den.

If you don't work hard, then you will die without a place to die because of a conflict or dispute before you are alienated.

As for heterogeneity, Xu Qing knew from the Bamboo Slips Mountain in Haishan Jue that there were medicinal herbs that could resolve it.

Although it can cure the symptoms but not the root cause, it can also deal with it, and the name of this elixir, he has also learned from the conversations of those scavengers on the way, it is called Bai Dan.

The nearby restricted area is rich in important herbs needed to make Baidan, so there must be Baidan for sale in this camp.

Thinking of this, Xu Qing touched the place where the purple crystal was buried in his chest.

During this period of time, he has clearly felt that in addition to his resilience, his speed and strength have improved a lot~www.readwn.com~ It is related to reaching the first level of the Sea Mountain Art, but Xu Qing feels that he is the first Layer, it seems to be somewhat different from the power of a tiger described by Haishan Jue.

"I can kill a lot of tigers."

Xu Qing murmured and felt the spiritual energy in his body. He seemed to be on the verge of reaching the second level with his assiduous cultivation along the way.

"Tonight, hit the second floor." Xu Qing's eyes showed firmness, she closed her eyes, and began to breathe.

Soon the psychic energy came from all directions. Compared with the restricted area, the psychic energy outside the restricted area was much less heterogeneous, which made the cultivation speed relatively improved.

Xu Qing had already noticed this in the row room of the Colosseum yesterday.

At this moment, he let go of his body, and while absorbing and exhaling forcefully, the faint purple light on his chest covered by the leather jacket flickered.

As time passed, there was a slight thumping sound in Xu Qing's body, and black impurities were once again expelled from the sweat pores.

The flesh and blood of the whole body is nourished, it seems to be more and more tenacious, and there is a faint stronger power, which is gradually bursting out within it.

At the same time, in the darkness outside, the little girl who was exchanged for bamboo sticks by Xu Qing during the day approached the courtyard of Xu Qing's residence.

She stood there hesitating, as if she wanted to knock on the door, but she was a little uneasy.

Until a long time, she seemed to summon up the courage and knocked gently on the bamboo door of the yard, but the sound was too weak to get in at all.

And at the moment when the little girl knocked on the bamboo door, the banging sound in Xu Qing's body also reached its strongest point.

With a roar in his mind, Xu Qing opened his eyes, and Zimang flashed in his eyes again. His expression showed joy, and he looked down at his arm, where a second alienation point appeared.

Condensation, second floor.
