"Finally a breakthrough."
Xu Qing stood up and punched out. There was a crisp sound that echoed in the air, and the wind even caused the door of the house to shake.
This scene made Xu Qing's eyes widen. He could feel that he was much stronger at this moment than he was yesterday.
If he were to face the giant horned python now, Xu Qing believed that he could blow the scales off its abdomen with just one punch.
Not only that, his senses are also sharper than before. Not only can he see more clearly, but his hearing is also extremely sensitive. The knock on the door outside the yard also floated into Xu Qing's ears at this time.
Xu Qing was startled and walked to the door of the house. With the moonlight outside, he saw the figure of the little girl standing there outside the bamboo door of the yard through the gap.
The other party seemed to be injured and his body was shaking a little.
Xu Qing frowned and didn't intend to pay attention, but the little girl persisted and knocked on the door gently.
So after a while, Xu Qing opened the door of the house and walked out.
After seeing Xu Qing's figure, the little girl became obviously nervous. She resisted not stepping back and looked at Xu Qing through the bamboo door.
"Is something wrong?" Xu Qing asked.
"I...I also obtained the right to live in the camp, and...I also found a job in the camp." The little girl stuttered as she spoke.
"I know." Xu Qing nodded and turned around to go back.
"Wait a minute...thank you, I came here to thank you." The little girl said quickly.
"You're welcome, it's just me who wants to eat it, it has nothing to do with you." Xu Qing said, turned and walked towards the house.
Looking at Xu Qing's back, the little girl pursed her lips and suddenly spoke loudly.
"No matter what, I still thank you for this kindness... I will repay you in the future." After saying that, she staggered away and disappeared into the night.
Xu Qing turned his head and looked around, but didn't take it to heart. After returning to the house, he took a deep breath and felt the changes in himself. He felt more confident about the idea of living a better life.
Just the faint stinging pain coming from his left arm made him guess that the foreign matter in his body must be very concentrated, and even the snake gallbladder could not resolve it much.
It was quiet at night, and there were no ferocious beasts roaring outside. Xu Qing walked to the bed, looked at the clean bedding, and then looked at his dirt-covered clothes.
He thought for a moment, rolled up the clean bedding, put it aside, and lay down on the bed with his clothes on.
Instinctively, he took out the black iron stick in his hand, held it in his hand, and felt sleepy.
This iron sign is his most trusted partner.
Ever since he found it in the garbage many years ago, he noticed its sharpness and hardness, so he always carried it with him as his own weapon.
"Tomorrow we will look for a place that sells white pills in the camp."
Xu Qing murmured in his heart and touched the leather bag. It contained some of his savings over the years, as well as a few valuable gems found in the city.
He didn't dare to take too many gems. He had seen it when he was a child.
In this thought, sleep slowly came over him, and Xu Qing's eyes gradually closed.
But he held the iron sign in his hand, and he still held it very hard, without relaxing at all.
The peaceful night passed by with the sunshine.
Early the next morning, Xu Qing got up early and left the hut.
Before leaving, he looked at Captain Lei's room. He didn't seem to be in there. Maybe he was out, so Xu Qing withdrew his gaze and walked into the camp.
Perhaps it was because he was so shocked when he harvested the bile from a live snake yesterday. Xu Qing, who was walking in the camp, clearly felt the difference in the eyes of the scavengers around him when they looked at him.
He no longer breeds evil in human nature because his young figure looks easy to bully.
Instead, he had more recognition and more vigilance. At the same time, the eyes of those teenagers who were the same age as him hiding in the corner also showed envy when they saw him.
Dignity is something you strive for.
Xu Qing said silently in his heart.
While looking for shops in the camp, Xu Qing was also familiar with the environment.
He found that there were many wild dogs in the camp, barking and snatching food from each other. Although most of them were skinny, some were stronger than some of the people.
After paying attention to these wild dogs, Xu Qing continued to observe the camp.
Until he had mapped out the entire camp in his mind, he followed the map in his mind and found a shop in the inner ring area.
The shop is not small, and it is very lively with people coming and going. It seems like everything is sold inside.
Xu Qing observed outside for a while and noticed that the little girl from yesterday was dressed like a waiter in the shop. She was obviously doing odd jobs here, and her forehead was covered with sweat as she was busy.
It wasn't until Xu Qing walked into the shop that she noticed it. Just as she was about to speak, she was called by a scavenger to inquire about the items.
Xu Qing did not immediately pay attention to the items in the shop, but first looked around at the people around him who came to buy items like him.
There were seven people in total, some were scanning items, some were bowing their heads in thought, and some were bargaining. Two of them, one fat and one thin, seemed to be in a group.
The fat one is round, the thin one has a horse-faced face, the posture is obviously tough, and the body has strong spiritual energy fluctuations. At this moment, one of them is scolding the little girl, seeming to be a little dissatisfied with her answer.
While the little girl was anxiously apologizing, Xu Qing looked at the items in the store.
Just as he had guessed, this was a general store, with elixirs, weapons, clothes, food, etc. all available.
So he withdrew his gaze, walked to the counter, looked at the indifferent store owner who was smoking a pipe inside, and spoke calmly.
"How to sell white pills."
"The white elixir is limited, and only five are sold every day. Today's quota still has two pieces, and one ten spirit coins."
The store owner raised his eyelids and glanced at Xu Qing. Perhaps he recognized him as the beast-fighting boy from yesterday, and his attitude became a little better.
But when Xu Qing heard this price, even though he was prepared in his heart, Xu Qing still frowned slightly.
His savings over the years were only twenty-three spirit coins, but the stinging pain on his arm caused him to carefully take out twenty spirit coins from his leather bag without hesitation and handed them to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper put away the spirit coins with a wave of his right hand, took out a cloth bag from the cabinet, and threw it to Xu Qing.
Xu Qing took it and opened it, and frowned again when he saw two white pills in the bag.
The surface of these two elixirs has turned blue in some places, and the texture has obviously changed. They are not very fresh, and there is no medicinal fragrance. They look very inferior.
"All the white elixirs in the camp are like this. We don't have good quality ones here. Even if this thing is rotten, it still has an effect. Just eat it without worry."
Seeing Xu Qing's doubts, the store owner said with a smile.
Xu Qing was very cautious and did not eat it immediately. He planned to go back and ask the Lei team, so he put it away and left.
But at this moment, his eyes flashed and his body suddenly swayed to the side.
Almost at the same time as he avoided it, a hand fell on the spot where he was just now and grabbed it.
Xu Qing looked coldly and saw the horse-faced scavenger in the shop who had scolded the little girl before. He retracted his hand and looked at him in surprise.
At the same time, the round body of his companion also stood at the door, blocking the road, staring at Xu Qing, grinning, showing yellow teeth.
"It's Fat Shan and Ma Si of the Blood Shadow Team!"
"This kid was brought back by Team Thunder. Thunder and Blood Shadow have always been at odds with each other, so I won't get involved in your affairs, but don't waste too much time. I still have business to do."
Other people in the store were also attracted by the two men's actions, and after looking at them, they whispered.
And the last sentence was said by the indifferent shopkeeper.
At this moment, pedestrians outside the store also noticed this place and stopped to look at it with interest.
The little girl looked anxious and didn't know how to help.
"Don't worry, it won't be long." Ma Lian smiled and looked at Xu Qing, with a cold flash in his eyes.
"My child, I have killed a lot of giant horned pythons. I won't make it difficult for you. I need white pills. Give me your two white pills and I will let you leave safely. Otherwise, I will cut your neck.
Take the white pill from your body."
These words made Xu Qing's eyes become even colder. He looked at the other person's neck, and then at the fat man blocking the door. He noticed that there were a lot of people outside, and he weighed it in his heart.
Any one of these two people, even if his spiritual energy fluctuations are not weak, is still on the second level. He is sure that he can kill him within ten breaths alone.
Even if two people work together, he can kill them, but it will take a little longer.
But this is a busy city. Once a fight starts, the other party is a member of the team and must have a helping hand.
He doesn't want to put all his hope in the timely arrival of Thunder Team. This is not his character. He doesn't like to put his hope in others. It is best to take control by himself.
So Xu Qing glanced at the horse-faced scavenger's neck again with an expressionless face, took out the white pill bag with his right hand, and threw it directly over without any delay. The other party grabbed it, looked at it, and laughed proudly.
His companion Pang Shan also gave up his position amidst laughter, and Xu Qing stepped out without looking back.
The reaction of the people around, both inside and outside the store, felt that this was normal. Under the law of the jungle, the weak must be aware of current affairs. This is the way to survive.
The little girl also breathed a sigh of relief. She had been sweating just now, but now that the crisis was resolved, she continued to work.
As for Pang Shan and Ma Si, they walked out of the store in a swaggering manner, laughing and chatting with each other as they walked away.
It's just that... no one noticed that behind Fat Shan and Ma Si, there was a figure that seemed to have disappeared away. It was following them like a shadow with enough patience without exposing itself.
His eyes were like a wolf staring at its prey, watching the two of them.
This figure is none other than Xu Qing.
Time passes and it gets darker.
Fat Shan and Ma Si went to many places in the camp and wandered around for a whole day, but they didn't notice the figure that was always following behind them.
Until the moonlight hung high, the two finally separated.
There was a bonfire where Fat Shan went, and Ma Si walked toward the group of feathered tents in the dark area outside the camp with lewd intentions.
And just when he was about to reach the dark place in the camp and was about to walk out, suddenly there was a sound of wind behind him.
Ma Si immediately turned back on alert, but there was nothing behind him. His expression changed in a daze, and he was about to take action, but it was too late.
In an instant, a small hand stretched out from his side and held his mouth tightly. At the same time, a sharp dagger was drawn hard on his neck without any pause or hesitation.
With a bang, blood suddenly erupted. Ma Si's eyes widened and he wanted to struggle.
But the little hand covering his mouth was extremely strong and dragged his body backwards. No matter how hard he struggled, it was of no avail.
Both feet could only struggle and step helplessly, unable to stop being dragged into the darkness.
In the end, he was dragged to the corner like a chicken.
But up to this moment, the little hand holding his mouth still did not let go. Instead, it waited for a long time to make sure that he had lost his resistance, was suffocated and bleeding too much and was unable to struggle, and then released it, leaving him trembling and weak.
His body fell to the ground.
It was at this time that Ma Si desperately used the dim moonlight to see clearly the figure of the young man with an indifferent expression in front of him.
"Woooo..."
There was disbelief in Ma Si's eyes. He never imagined that the boy who obediently handed over Bai Dan during the day would act so decisively and ruthlessly.
He seemed to want to tell the boy that the cutting of his neck he said during the day was just a threat and would not lead to murder...
But the blood in his throat prevented him from speaking. He could only cry weakly and watch desperately as the young man lowered his body and rummaged through his pockets expressionlessly.
After rummaging through everything, Xu Qing found his own white elixir, and five more pills. In addition, there were also some miscellaneous items of the other party's spirit coins.
After putting it away, when Ma Si was extremely frightened, Xu Qing carefully took out the linen cloth wrapped with the snake's head, carefully opened it, and used the snake's teeth to pierce Ma Si's body skillfully.
Ma Si's body twitched again in an instant, and slowly began to melt from the wound location. This feeling of being corroded and the pain caused his whole body to collapse.
It wasn't until Xu Qing raised her hand to cover his eyes that Ma Si's world lost its light.
The whole body melted and turned into blood, seeping into the soil.
Xu Qing learned from his previous negligence, took out a prepared bag from his body, collected Ma Si's clothes and sundries, and then turned around and left.
After he left, at the place where Ma Si died, two figures walked out of the darkness.
It was the extraordinary old man in purple robes and his servants that no one could see in the Colosseum yesterday.
The old man looked down at Ma Si's melted ground, then looked up at Xu Qing's retreating figure, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
"He is a seedling. He can be patient and decisive at the same time. The most rare thing is that he can be ruthless and deal with it cleanly at the same time. Not bad."
The servant on the side looked a little surprised.
He had followed the old man for many years and rarely heard the other person say that he was a nice person. However, this young man had already attracted his attention twice, so he also raised his head and looked in the direction where Xu Qing disappeared.
"Interesting little guy." The old man smiled and asked casually.
"How long does it take to get to Master Bai's place?"
"Seventh Master, according to Master Bai's itinerary, we should be able to reach here within the next couple of days." The servant withdrew his gaze and spoke respectfully.
"He's finally here. This time I have to persuade him properly. There are rules in that shabby place like Zi Tu. If there's anything to miss, why not come to my Seven Blood Pupils and be at ease."
The old man laughed, seemingly very happy, and looked towards where Xu Qingyuan had gone.
"Come on, let's go see what this little wolf cub is going to do next."
