Chapter 132 Going out to build the foundation! (Twelfth update)
In the main city of Seven Blood Eyes, the moonlight is like sand, spreading across the earth.
Xu Qing stepped on the moonlight and moved forward.
Although his cultivation has now reached the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation, the injuries from before are still there, so Xu Qing is as vigilant as when he first came to Seven Blood Pupils.
Especially today, he was carrying a life lamp, which made Xu Qing extremely alert. His right hand seemed to be shaking naturally as he moved forward, but in fact, if there was any trouble, his posture at this moment could allow him to take out the black iron stick in an instant.
This is the experience Xu Qing learned in Qixuetong. Hiding needles in cotton is the way to survive. Unless there is another purpose, you should not show your sharpness through inadvertent habits.
In addition, the experience of Qixuetong also made Xu Qing learn how to relax the more alert his body is.
Because he found that when he was in the slums and scavenger camps, his body tensing up when he was nervous seemed to allow him to attack instantly, but in fact it was still slow.
The real method is to relax your body and be alert, so that outsiders can't see anything, but you only need a thought and your body can act instantly.
These are the skills he learned, and they have unknowingly changed many of his behaviors. However, Xu Qian is still too young, and now he still cannot be like the captain, who can even hide his expressions perfectly.
Xu Qing did not forcefully imitate, and acted according to his instinct. At this moment, as his body was galloping, he was getting closer and closer to Zhang San's transportation department.
But just as he was passing by an alley, Xu Qing suddenly stopped in his steps and suddenly turned his head to look behind him, with a chill rising in his eyes.
Under his gaze, a thin figure slowly walked out from the far corner, it was the mute boy.
Qixuetong's Taoist robe is still roomy on his body, and the dog skin jacket he wears still makes him look bloated, but the difference is that there is an additional badge on his Taoist robe, which is an official member of the Murder Division.
's logo.
He appeared in the distance, glanced at Xu Qing quickly, and then squatted down, his posture was not that of launching an attack, but more like one of following and protecting.
Xu Qing stared at the mute boy and saw the badge on his robe. Regarding this mute, Xu Qing had read the files before and knew that he was an assistant arrester when he first joined the murder department. He had obviously become a regular official now, so he spoke slowly.
"I don't like people following me."
The mute boy was silent, then silently stepped back and disappeared into the night again.
Only then did Xu Qing look away. He didn't care whether the other party had good intentions or bad intentions. Now he had no idea to judge. But if the other party still followed him in his own way after being informed by him, then he would kill someone.
At this moment, Xu Qing's body swayed and he continued to walk away.
Not long after, Xu Qing arrived at the Transportation Department and saw Zhang San counting the goods from a distance. Apparently, after returning from a competition, Zhang San was very concerned about his treasures for fear of being stolen.
Zhang San also saw Xu Qing. After waving to Xu Qing, he also finished counting and escaped from the chimney with satisfaction.
"Junior brother Xu Qing, you just came back and you didn't go to rest. Why did you come to my place?"
Xu Qing took out his magic boat without asking Zhang San why he didn't put the items in the storage bag.
As the Dharma boat landed with a bang, the ground shook, and some of the fragmentary parts hanging on it were scattered.
"Cultivation Dharma Boat."
Xu Qing spoke calmly.
Zhang San's eyes were about to pop out of his head, and he forgot to smoke the pipe in his hand. He stared blankly at the familiar yet unfamiliar half of the Dharma Ark in front of him.
"Did we meet during the competition? We went to the temple guard captain together, and then came back together?" For a long time, Zhang San looked a little confused.
"Yes." Xu Qing looked at Zhang San in surprise.
"Since I didn't have an auditory hallucination, and it was indeed you I met in Dabi, then tell me how your boat was made like this. Oh my God, this is my most outstanding work. I, I, I
...This is so damn hard to destroy to such an extent even if a foundation-building monk takes action!!"
"How on earth could you destroy half of the ark? Are you using it as a shield?" Zhang San covered his chest. At this moment, his heartache seemed to be even stronger than that of Xu Qing's.
In fact, during the competition, he remembered that Xu Qing used the magic boat to give the huge sea corpse a blow. It was still intact at the time, but now it was destroyed to such an extent. This made him find it incredible, unless it was like the captain.
Did something crazy...
Thinking of this, Zhang San's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He recalled that when he was escaping from Guying Island, he saw Xu Qing's embarrassment and weakness again, so he took a breath.
"You didn't really do something as crazy as the captain, did you?"
Xu Qing shook his head.
"Senior Brother Zhang San, how long does it take to repair the Dharma Boat?"
Zhang San looked at Fazhou and sighed.
"Okay, okay, last time you brought back a flying boat, let's compare it this time, it's not bad this time, at least half of the flying boat is left..."
"But it can't be repaired in a short time. I'm going out with the captain tomorrow. He asked me to carry him to a certain place to recover from the injury, and said I could also build a foundation there."
"If you are not in a hurry, wait until I come back to build the foundation and refine it for you again. The result should be better after I build the foundation. Besides, the flesh and blood obtained by the captain can also be placed in the new ship to temporarily replace the power source.
"
Zhang San circled around Xu Qing's Dharma boat and sighed resignedly.
Xu Qing thought for a while and then nodded. He did not ask too much about the other party's foundation building. No matter what the relationship was, asking about this kind of thing would cause some taboos.
So he said goodbye with fists crossed.
The night was getting dark at the moment, and the teleportation array of the Seven Blood Eyes would not be activated at night unless necessary, so Xu Qing did not choose the inn after thinking about it, but went to the Crime Hunting Department.
After being promoted to deputy captain, he also had a room of his own in the Xuanbu of the Murder Division, but he rarely went there on weekdays. Now that he had no place to live, Xu Qing planned to stay there for the night.
After all, compared with the inns outside, the security level inside the Murder Department is still relatively high.
In this way, Xu Qing went to the murder department overnight.
There was no one in Xuanbu, and the captain was not there. Xu Qing entered his room, activated the protective formation he bought, and meditated with his eyes closed.
The night passed.
At dawn the next morning, Xu Qing's eyes suddenly opened. Without any hesitation, he put away his formation and quickly left the Murder Division, heading straight for the teleportation formation in the center of the main city.
The speed along the way was very fast, and finally, half an hour later, he saw the teleportation array from a distance.
There were many people queuing up to teleport, and two of them stood out among the crowd. One was Zhang San, and the other was the captain he was carrying on his back.
Thinking of Zhang San's words yesterday, Xu Qing was not surprised. The captain, who was looking around on Zhang San's back, soon saw Xu Qing and waved while eating an apple.
As Xu Qing approached, the captain glanced at him with a faint smile.
"Are you afraid of being in the sect and want to find a place outside to break through? Do you want me to introduce you to some places?"
Zhang San also looked at Xu Qing and said hello with a smile. When he heard the captain's words, his eyes lit up and he glanced at Xu Qing a few more times, looking quite pleased with the success of his investment.
"I'm out on business." Xu Qing glanced at the teleportation team and spoke calmly.
"Vice Captain Xu, your expression is a little too fake. Let me teach you. When you want to lie in the future, you must look into the other person's eyes. Only in this way can it be true. And you are so covert. It seems that there are big people on the island this time.
Harvest?”
"Come on, come on, take it out and let our team show you whether this apple is worth anything."
The captain finished the apple in his hand, took out a big apple that Xu Qing had eaten on Guying Island, shook it in a showy way, and took a bite.
"Well, where is the captain going this time?" Xu Qing nodded, looked away from the teleportation array, and asked.
"I'm going to recover. I'll be even more powerful when I come back. If you don't pay back the 10,000 spirit stones you owe me, don't blame me for being so ruthless."
The captain narrowed his eyes and looked at the leather bag on Xu Qing's body thoughtfully. He looked back and took a big bite of the apple.
"I wish you a smooth recovery, captain." Xu Qing looked into the captain's eyes and said seriously.
The captain was stunned for a moment and looked into Xu Qing's eyes with a thoughtful look on his face, as if he was analyzing the sincerity of Xu Qing's words.
At this moment, Zhang San sighed. He finally realized that the two perverts Captain and Xu Qing probably chatted like this every time they met, so he was about to speak.
But at this moment, the entire Seven Blood Eyes sky suddenly changed, and the originally clear sky instantly turned into pitch black. The wave was extremely shocking, causing the entire Seven Blood Eyes main city to tremble, and even the seven mountain peaks roared.
The pressure fell from the sky!
Everyone in the main city, monks and mortals alike, all had their hearts pounding and raised their heads to look at the sky. Even the waves in the harbor were making huge waves at this moment, as if they were worshiping.
Xu Qing's expression also changed. When he raised his head, he saw the reason why the sky turned black.
It was a majestic black cloud with no end, roaring from the direction of Huangjin, covering the sun as it passed above the Seven Blood Pupils, turning the earth into pitch black.
This black cloud carries endless lightning, rumbling across the sky, traveling in all directions, and unparalleled intimidation spreads out from this black cloud, covering all living beings.
Everyone who saw it instinctively had a sense of life and death crisis in their hearts.
Faintly, in this dark cloud, there seems to be a god-like existence, like a phoenix or an eagle!
Its brown body is like a rock, and its feathers are like balls of flame.
At this moment, He seemed to be angry and headed straight towards the Forbidden Sea. As he roared, the sea in the distance followed his progress. Huge waves continued and the sound was overwhelming.
From a perceptual point of view, compared with Juying, they are obviously inferior, and the gap is huge.
As for Xu Qing, just by looking at him from a distance, he felt a splitting headache and his mind was buzzing. The same was true for everyone else around him, and some of them were bleeding directly from their orifices.
Xu Qing was shocked, he recognized the other party.
The existence in this black cloud is exactly the emperor of the first restricted area of Nanhuang Continent, Yanhuang, whom he met when he returned from his first trip to the sea!
It's just that that time, the other party seemed to be calm, so Xu Qing didn't feel like his headache was going to explode. But now, this Yanhuang was obviously angry, and his mood swings affected everything.
"The Flame Phoenix goes out to sea... It seems that something big is going to happen. Could it be that the emperor in the corpse prison has walked out of the forbidden area?"
When the captain whispered softly, black clouds whizzed past the Seven Blood Pupils. After gradually disappearing, the sky above the Seven Blood Pupils became clear again, but everyone's minds were still fluctuating violently.
Xu Qing took a deep breath. He had asked Zhang San about the Flame Phoenix after he came back last time. He knew the identity of the other party and also knew that this terrifying existence was not a vicious person. He fell into a deep sleep most of the time and woke up occasionally.
Treat human races and alien races equally, especially the living beings living in Nanhuang Continent, and most of them are protected to a certain extent.
Therefore, some human races continue here to this day.
After a long while, as the Flame Phoenix completely disappeared, the Seven Blood Pupils reluctantly resumed operation. Xu Qing withdrew his gaze, walked towards the teleportation array, stepped into it, and his figure disappeared in an instant.
"This kid can't trust me. It seems that he got something good this time, but no matter how good it is, it's not as powerful as my flesh and blood." The captain smiled proudly and patted Zhang San on the head.
"Let's go, Zhang San, brother will take you to eat meat."
Zhang San sighed, secretly thinking that not only Xu Qing couldn't trust you, but I couldn't trust you either. But thinking about the investment he had made over the years, he had no choice but to accept his fate.
"Those who are invested are all grandpas!" Zhang San shook his head and stepped into the teleportation array with the captain on his back.
As Xu Qing, Zhang San and the captain teleported away, the Seven Blood Pupils gradually returned to normal, but... at some point, some haze appeared in the sky.
It seems that a storm is coming.
