Chapter 107: Junior Brother Xu Qing, are you there?
Inside and outside the room.
The mute boy trembled, and the captain looked curious.
Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and said nothing, but he noticed that what frightened the other party was the shadow under him.
At this moment, under Xu Qing's gaze, the mute boy's body was trembling more and more. He held his hands tightly, and his whole body was soaked with sweat like rain. Anyone here could hear the clicking sound coming from his legs.
It was the sound of bones and muscles fighting.
It seemed that his instinct was fighting fiercely with his mind.
And if this continues, every passing breath will be an unimaginable torture for him.
Xu Qing's eyes narrowed, and his eyes were slightly introverted. He stood up, clasped his fists towards the captain, turned around and walked to the door.
As he got closer, the fear in the mute boy's eyes increased, but he didn't seem to dare to step back, as if Xu Qing had seen a strange state in the restricted area.
When Xu Qing walked up to him, the boundless panic rose to the extreme in the mind of the mute boy. With a roar in his mind, foam came out of the corner of the boy's mouth and his body twitched violently.
Xu Qing frowned. He did not let go of any pressure, nor did he deliberately show his murderous intent. So he gave the young man a meaningful look, walked out of the room, and left the place.
And as he left, for the mute boy, the fear dissipated like the ebb of the tide. Soon his body no longer trembled, and most of his expression recovered. However, the lingering fear in his eyes still made him dare not look back at all.
Look at Xu Qing’s leaving figure.
The captain looked at this scene with a strange light in his eyes. He simply bit the apple and walked directly to the mute boy. He walked around him, held the apple in his hand, and spoke in surprise.
"You know him?"
The mute boy shook his head.
"Don't know him? Then why are you afraid of him?"
The captain looked even more curious. It had actually been half a month since the mute boy in front of him came to arrest the murderer. In this half month, he had killed many wanted criminals just like Xu Qing did back then.
And like a wolf-dog, it is quite ferocious, and looks at everyone with hostility and wariness.
Today, it was the first time that the captain saw the mute boy so frightened.
The mute boy heard the captain's words, but kept his mouth tightly closed and did not speak.
The more he didn't say anything, the more the captain wanted to know the answer. He seemed to have even forgotten to eat the apple. After looking at the mute boy for a few times, a bright light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and an astonishing evil energy burst out in his body.
.
It never spread, but was locked on the mute boy.
This evil spirit was so shocking that it made the mute boy's whole body tense up to the extreme. His face turned pale and his body trembled. However... there was no fear in his eyes like before, only the unyielding will became stronger.
Soon, the captain retracted his murderous intention and sighed.
"You tell me why you are so afraid of him, how about I go find the director to promote you?"
The mute boy remained silent.
"I forgot that you can't speak. Then write it and tell me."
The mute boy was silent and shook his head with determination in his eyes, as if he did not dare to speak even if he died.
The captain had no choice but to wave the mute boy away. He squatted on a chair, ate an apple, and kept thinking.
At the same time, Xu Qing, who walked out of the Murder Department, looked back in the direction of Xuanbu, then lowered his head and glanced at his own shadow.
What he felt before was that the mute boy was afraid of shadows.
"Can he feel my shadow?" Xu Qing murmured, his eyes cold.
Then he looked away, thinking about what the captain said that he still owed him spiritual stones, so he took out the bamboo slip, crossed out the greetings after the captain's name, and crossed it out again.
On this bamboo slip, you can see that the ancestor of the King Kong Sect has been crossed out, the mermaid boy has also been crossed out, and the old man in the inn is still there, but after the word captain, there are several crossed out question marks.
Looking at the question marks carved and crossed out on the bamboo slips, Xu Qing was silent, and then added the name of His Highness the Third Highness, also followed by a question mark.
After a while, he put away the bamboo slips and went to the drug store in the city.
It was not the one he often went to before, but a larger shop, where he saw the Foundation Establishment Pill.
The price was so exaggerated that even Xu Qing was considered rich now, but he still took a breath.
"One hundred thousand spiritual stones..." Xu Qing returned to the berth silently.
Although his cultivation and combat power have reached an astonishing level, Xu Qing's caution and care have not diminished at all. Before taking out the magic boat, he checked the surroundings as always.
After confirming that there was no problem, he put down the magic boat and stepped in quickly. With the protection turned on, Xu Qing walked into the herbal medicine room of the cabin. The moment he sat down cross-legged, purple light shone on his chest.
The suppressive power of the purple crystal was drawn out by him, and it was suppressed violently towards the shadow beneath him, which was as usual.
After suppressing him three times in a row, Xu Qing stopped. This was his regular behavior.
Xu Qing didn't know what this shadow was, but it wasn't important. He could just suppress it as a precaution.
After doing this, Xu Qing began to refine the poison.
"The Seventh Peak Competition..." While refining poison, Xu Qing was thinking about the competition.
At this moment, his cultivation has reached the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation. Although he feels that the Sea Transformation Sutra can continue to expand, Xu Qing understands that he must prepare the things needed to build the foundation as soon as possible.
He didn't know much about Foundation Establishment, but he knew that Foundation Establishment Pill was needed to increase the success rate of breakthrough, and one pill was not very safe.
As for the principles of foundation building, the sect has reservations about this knowledge, and it takes an extremely exaggerated amount of contribution points to check it out.
If you don't want to spend it, you can also buy it from others.
After thinking about it, Xu Qing planned to find a time to wake up the ancestor of the Vajra Sect and find out more.
"The Foundation Establishment Pill is too expensive and I can't afford it, so I have no choice but to go to the competition to rob it." Xu Qing's eyes were restrained and he made a decision in his heart. As the outside sky approached dusk, his poison refining came to an end and he began
Practicing in lotus position.
At the same time, the sunset glow outside at dusk reflected on the port, as if spreading a layer of orange gauze over the entire harbor. All the buildings seemed to be colored by it, and even the clouds in the sky were red.
.
In this sunset, there is a beautiful woman wearing a lavender robe, carrying an ancient bronze sword on her back, and with a ponytail, walking towards Port 79.
She has a tall and straight figure and a beautiful appearance, especially the ponytail and the ancient sword on her back, which give her a more heroic appearance. Combined with her status as a core disciple, she looks uniquely charming.
Wherever we passed along the way, all the disciples who saw this scene bowed their heads in greeting, and many of them had a strange feeling in their hearts.
She seemed to be in a happy mood, and nodded to the disciples she met on the road. It was not until she entered the 79th port that she paused, her pretty face flushed slightly, and her heartbeat seemed to speed up a bit.
Standing there, she took a few deep breaths, then took another step, heading straight to...Xu Qing's berth and walking quickly.
Arriving at the berth soon, she looked at the somewhat familiar Dharma boat, her expression filled with happy memories, and she spoke loudly.
"Junior Brother Xu Qing, are you there?"
Although Port 79 is not particularly lively on weekdays, there are a lot of people coming and going, so the lavender robe is very conspicuous here, so almost the moment this woman came in, she attracted a lot of people's attention.
.
But at this moment, seeing her actually speaking to Xu Qing's Dharma Boat, all the disciples here opened their eyes wide.
In the glow of dusk, the woman standing on the shore had her green hair fluttering in the wind, and her large Taoist robe was blown back by the wind, outlining the very moving and graceful curves of her body.
And the rays of sunlight fell on her beautiful and flawless face. I don't know whether it was her blushing or the sunset. She looked extremely rosy. Even her eyes seemed to contain agility and energy at this moment.
"It's core disciple Senior Sister Ding Xue!"
"Why did she come to our place...looking for Senior Brother Xu Qing? Oh, it would be better if she came to me."
Everyone around was a little sad. Xu Qing, who was sitting cross-legged in the boat, heard the voice of the woman outside. He frowned slightly, stood up and walked out, looking at the woman on the shore of the berth.
"Senior Sister Ding." Xu Qing said calmly, feeling a little unhappy about being disturbed in her practice.
"Junior Brother Xu Qing, I came back some time ago and came to your place. You were not here. I know it's a bit rude to interrupt, but I have a lot of questions about vegetation during this period, and I would like to ask Junior Brother to clarify my confusion."
Ding Xue looked at Xu Qing and spoke quickly. As she spoke, she raised her right hand and suddenly had a spiritual ticket in her hand.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, Junior Brother Xu."
Xu Qing wanted to refuse, but after seeing the spirit ticket, he thought about it. Although he had enough pockets now, there were many items needed to build the foundation, and the prices were astonishing. Besides, one hundred spirit stones was not a small amount.
So he nodded, took a few steps back, and opened the protective shield.
Xu Qing was worried outside the Dharma Ark, but inside his Dharma Ark, it was blessed by divinity and filled with poison, so it was the safest for him.
Ding Xue was very happy to see Xu Qing open the protection of the Dharma Ark. She jumped up with graceful steps and came to the Dharma Ark and stood in front of Xu Qing.
"Junior Brother Xu, where were you some time ago? I heard that you have come back a long time ago." Ding Xue looked at Xu Qing and said with a smile.
"Sister Ding, if you have any questions about the grass and trees, please tell me." Xu Qing did not return to the question. He did not hate Ding Xue. After all, he was very diligent and studious at sea, but he still instinctively kept a certain distance from Ding Xue. Shen
Open your mouth loudly.
Seeing that Xu Qing was a little wary of him, Senior Sister Ding didn't mind and quickly asked some questions about vegetation that she had prepared.
Xu Qing heard this, thought about it and replied seriously.
One Hundred Spiritual Stones, he felt it was worth explaining in detail.
At this moment, the sea breeze blew, and the sunset glow like rouge filled the Dharma boat with the wind, making the man and woman inside seem to be bathed in the glow, which had a unique charm.
Seeing this scene, the other disciples around, as well as the cultivators patrolling the shore, all felt even more sad in their hearts.
At the same time, on the streets of the main city, a young man in a lavender robe, regardless of the image of his core disciple, ran towards Port 79 with an anxious face.
"Senior sister, how can you be so confused? We were fine a few days ago. Why did you go to find him again?"
This person is none other than Zhao Zhongheng.
He was extremely anxious at the moment, especially when he thought about the way his senior sister looked at Xu Qing during those days at sea, and Xu Qing's behavior of not asking for money in the end, he felt a slight thump in his heart.
This was obviously a move, which made him extremely panicked.
