Outside of Time

In March, although the earth is getting warmer, it is still a bit cold.

If you have just come out of the restricted area, you will not feel anything about the cold, but if you have been outside for a long time, your body will still feel the coldness that penetrates your bones.

Especially at night, the cold is even heavier.

As the cold wind blew by, Xu Qing's figure did not pause at all, but he just wrapped his leather jacket tighter.

He still had some unfinished business, so he walked carefully through the camp in the night.

On the way, he saw some wild dogs baring their teeth at him, but after meeting his eyes, they seemed to sense the smell of blood on his body, so they all shut up and hid.

Xu Qing looked away from the wild dog and continued to move forward.

Until he arrived at a house in the Central area, he squatted motionless in the darkness, staring at a large house in the distance.

There was an extinguished campfire.

Xu Qing remembered that Pang Shan went to this place when he separated from Ma Si, so he wanted to wait and see if the other party would get up and go out at night.

An icy chill invaded the whole body, but Xu Qing's figure seemed to be petrified, standing there, not moving at all, waiting patiently.

Behind him, on the roof of a building, Master Qi and his servants also followed him. Looking at Xu Qing squatting there, Master Qi smiled.

"As I expected, this little wolf cub is going to kill everyone."

"I'm looking forward to seeing what this kid will do if he enters the restricted area next to him." Master Qi squatted down and watched with interest while talking to the servant beside him.

The servant smiled, squatted next to Master Qi, and looked at Xu Qing in the distance.

Seeing the passage of time, half an hour passed, Xu Qing frowned slightly.

After thinking for a while, he turned around and left along the dark place. He was like a ghost, coming and leaving without a sound.

He didn't immediately return to Team Lei's residence, but walked around in a circle.

After confirming that no one was following him, Xu Qing slipped into the courtyard of the Thunder Team and quietly returned to his hut.

After coming in, he took a deep breath and rubbed his hands, as if to dispel the cold in his body with this action.

Then he wiped the blood on his body, then sat cross-legged on the bed, thinking in his eyes.

"These scavengers need to go out from time to time to pick up work, and Ma Si is a lustful person, so as long as it doesn't take long, no one will notice his death, and there is a high probability that Fatshan will not be alerted by it."

"But to be on the safe side, we still have to kill Pang Shan as soon as possible." Xu Qing narrowed his eyes.

Just like when he killed and mutilated the cow, he grew up in a slum and did not allow hidden dangers that threatened his life around him.

The reason why Ma Si was killed was because the other party was robbing him of his belongings and threatening him, and he was preparing to deal with Fat Mountain. This was also the reason.

After pondering, Xu Qing took out Ma Si's belongings from his leather bag and inspected them carefully.

Most of them were sundries, and there was also a palm-sized piece of iron, nothing surprising, just like a piece of material.

In addition, there are more than seventy spirit coins, which is already a huge sum of money for Xu Qing.

He counted it carefully and took out the white pills. After comparing his own white pills with Ma Si's, he found that the texture of these white pills was stale.

So in his heart, he believed what the grocery store store said.

After thinking for a while, Xu Qing took one out, put it to his mouth and swallowed it, then closed his eyes and felt it silently.

Soon he felt a warm current rising in his body, and finally converged on the alienation point on his left arm, giving him a feeling of comfort.

After a while, when the feeling disappeared, Xu Qing opened his eyes and immediately looked at his left arm. The two alienation points there were slightly lighter, and the tingling sensation was also lessened.

"It works." Xu Qing's eyes were filled with joy as he took out the second one and swallowed it.

The same feeling continued to resurface until it dissipated again, taking his tingling sensation away with it.

A sense of spirituality arose throughout his body, which was very comfortable, as if his flesh and blood had been washed, making Xu Qing feel that his speed and strength seemed to be stronger.

He did not continue to take the remaining white elixir, but put it in a leather bag, closed his eyes and began to practice.

A night of silence.

Early the next morning, Xu Qing opened her eyes and got up to go out.

As soon as he opened the door of the house, he saw Captain Lei sitting cross-legged in the yard, as if he was vomiting.

Xu Qing didn't bother, gently opened the courtyard door, closed it carefully, and then walked away.

Today's wind seems to be even colder than last night. Not only does it make people shiver when it blows on them, but even the wild dogs huddle in their holes and rarely go out.

Xu Qing could see the mist appearing as he breathed, which brought back some bad memories of his time in the slums.

He hates the cold.

Because the cold is a disaster for a homeless child sleeping in the open air, and he needs to struggle hard to survive.

Therefore, Xu Qing, who was passing by a clothing store in this cold weather, paused involuntarily and looked at the thick and clean clothes hanging in the store.

He touched the bulging leather bag, turned around and walked in.

There were not many people in the shop, so Xu Qing came in and looked at the hanging clothes, looking at them seriously.

At the cabinet on the side, the storekeeper glanced at Xu Qing, didn't pay much attention, and gave instructions to the waiter beside him.

"Go to the back and sort it out. Take out the custom-made clothes that you haven't come back to pick up after a month, hang them up and sell them."

"Then what if the person who ordered the clothes comes back?" The waiter seemed to be new here and hesitated for a moment.

"Come back? People disappear every once in a while in the camp. Some die in the restricted area, and some disappear inexplicably. The only ones who can come back are ghosts. Go quickly."

The store owner waved impatiently, and the waiter hurriedly ran to the back hall.

Soon, before Xu Qing had chosen any clothes, the clerk had already come out with a large amount of clothes. After hanging them up one by one, Xu Qing took a fancy to a dark fur coat at a glance.

Those were clothes that were ordered by others but could never be picked up again.

After burning the incense, when Xu Qing walked out of the shop, he was wearing the dark fur coat.

This clothes is cold-proof and not heavy. It is much warmer than Xu Qing's previous clothes.

But because he is so thin, it looks like a coat on his body, which is very uncoordinated.

But Xu Qing was very happy. He carefully avoided some dirty places while walking on the road.

When he was about to look for Fat Mountain, he noticed a chaotic sound coming from outside the camp. At the same time, many scavengers in the camp also walked out, looking forward to approaching the direction of the sound.

Xu Qing also looked up.

Gradually, he saw a convoy of more than ten carriages driving towards here under the sunlight.

The people sitting on it, even the guards, were all dressed in extremely bright clothes, with rosy complexions and bright eyes, and most of them had astonishing spiritual energy fluctuations in their bodies.

As for the person in the carriage, Xu Qing couldn't see it, but he could guess that he must be a very distinguished person.

Xu Qing had heard from Team Lei that convoys like this would often come to the camp, either to do business or to purchase seven-leaf clovers for refining white pills.

Fat Shan's figure also appeared in the crowd. After attracting Xu Qing's attention, he no longer paid attention to the convoy. Instead, he narrowed his eyes, stared at Fat Shan, and started to follow.

Perhaps it was due to the arrival of the convoy that the camp was very lively all day long, forming a market, but Xu Qing never found a chance.

Until late at night, he watched Fat Shan return to the big house again, so he put away the dagger in his sleeve and turned around to leave.

Although there was no chance to take action that day, Xu Qing was very patient. After returning to the hut, he meditated in the newly bought clothes and did not take them off even when sleeping.

It wasn't until dawn again that he was ready to go out to look for opportunities, then he took off his fur coat and put on his old leather jacket.

Looking at the new clothes, Xu Qing felt that she was a little reckless yesterday.

Wearing a torn leather jacket, Xu Qing was walking in the camp, passing by a crowded market. His eyes seemed to be looking at where the convoy was stationed, but in fact he was looking for Fat Shan.

In the distance, Master Qi was taking a deep breath, sitting on a roof with his servants. He glanced at the motorcade, then looked at Xu Qing, and casually asked the servants beside him.

"Did you send the post to Master Bai?"

"Master Qi, we have already sent him away, but Master Bai said that he has been ill recently..."

"Are you sick? He is a doctor. He is... Hey, I remember this kid wore new clothes yesterday. Why did he change them back today?" As Master Qi was talking, he noticed Xu Qing's clothes and was surprised. .

While Qi Ye was puzzled, Xu Qing was in the crowd and locked Pang Shan with his peripheral vision.

In this way, with Xu Qing's peripheral vision locked in, the whole day passed.

With the arrival of late night, Fat Shan, who was originally going to walk back to his house, changed his direction for some unknown reason and actually walked towards the outer ring area in this night.

It's relatively remote there.

"Did you find me?" Xu Qing frowned, his eyes narrowed, and his eyes gradually became colder.

He did not follow, but looked around, until he was sure that the other party was going alone, then he took a detour, sneaked in the dark, and reached the outer ring ahead of schedule.

After confirming that there was no ambush here, the cold light in his eyes became stronger and he hid in the darkness.

At this moment, Fat Shan also reached this area, and his footsteps suddenly stopped.

"Baby, I noticed someone was following me yesterday. Come out. This place is very remote and suitable for disposing of your body. If you don't dare to come out, I won't be alone next time. Even if Team Lei is protecting you, we Blood Shadow It will also cost you.”

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes. The other party's words had reached this point, and there was no need to hide it, so he walked out of the darkness.

"Ma Si didn't go out secretly to pick up work. You killed him, right? He underestimated you." Fat Shan smiled evilly and looked at Xu Qing who walked out.

"But it doesn't matter. I've disliked him for a long time. If you don't kill him, I plan to kill him next time I go out, so I want to thank you. I don't care whether he lives or lives, but there is something in his bag. The thing should be at your place."

Fat Shan looked at the pocket on Xu Qing's waist with greed in his eyes. Without waiting for Xu Qing's reply, his body swayed, and his fat and round body exploded at a speed that exceeded the second level of Qi Condensation.

The spiritual energy fluctuations in his body were much stronger at this moment, and even formed a layer of magical airflow outside the body, driving the cold wind, and the whole person was like an ice ball, crashing into Xu Qing.

He was not at the second level of Qi Condensation, but his spiritual energy fluctuations at this moment had already reached the third level.

It was precisely because of this and the fact that he was spying on something in Ma Si's leather bag that he went out alone.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes. It was his first time fighting a monk head-on, especially since the air flow outside the opponent's body was obviously transformed by spiritual energy, but he believed in his own strength and speed.

So at the moment when the opponent arrived, Xu Qing rushed out suddenly, and his full burst of speed almost left some traces on his figure.

In the blink of an eye, he avoided Fat Shan's body. When Fat Shan was obviously stunned, Xu Qing was already behind him. He raised his right hand and punched out with all his strength.

This was the first time that Xu Qing used all his fighting power. The punch made a snapping sound, and made a banging sound when it landed behind Pangshan.

Pang Shan's whole body was shaking violently, the barrier formed by the air flow outside his body was shattered inch by inch, his internal organs were tumbling, and when blood spurted out with a loud sound, Xu Qing's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

When he raised his right hand, the iron stick appeared. His body swayed past Pang Shan's staggering back body, and the iron stick was about to pierce Pang Shan's head.

But in the next moment, Xu Qing's complexion changed slightly and his body quickly retreated.

The moment he stepped back, Fatty Shan's eyes revealed a sinister look.

Two black lines suddenly emerged from his ears, one after the other with a sharp whistling and heading straight towards Xu Qing's face.

Those two black lines were black winged centipedes, which were extremely fast. They were about to approach, but were cut off one by one by the dagger drawn by Xu Qing's left hand.

The last one was less than seven inches away from Xu Qing's eyes when it was cut off.

This dangerous scene made Xu Qing's eyes more murderous and he rushed forward again.

And with the help of Xu Qing's opportunity to retreat, the tumbling internal organs in Pang Shan's body also recovered a little.

At this moment, his round body quickly retreated, and he raised his hands to make a seal. His face instantly turned red, and he sprayed a mouthful of poisonous mist directly at Xu Qing who was rushing towards him.

The mist rolled over a large area and quickly rolled towards Xu Qing. There was a sizzling sound from the ground wherever it passed, indicating that it was highly toxic.

After doing this, Fat Shan's face turned pale and his belly became smaller. He fell back again, with a look of cruelty and palpitations in his eyes.

Xu Qing's strength was beyond his expectation.

He didn't expect that with his third level of Qi Condensation and his poison attack, he was almost killed by the opponent with one blow.

And this poisonous mist is already his trump card. If he still can't do anything to the other party, he must shout to make the other party afraid.

If he just shouted, it would be difficult for him to obtain Ma Si's item.

There was actually another forbidden item that he had not used here. This item had extremely side effects, but he still took it out. It was amber.

Hesitating in his heart, he looked towards the area where Xu Qing was filled with mist.

But the moment he looked, the mist rolled away violently, and Xu Qing's figure rushed out of it.

The speed made Pang Shan's eyes blurred, and his heart was pounding. He was about to crush Amber with his right hand and wanted to shout, but it was too late.

A jet-black iron stick, with an incomparable edge, arrived in an instant, with the force of breaking a bamboo, it penetrated through his head in an instant, and blood spattered out, falling on Xu Qing's body next to him.

Pang Shan's body froze. He wanted to turn his head but couldn't. The body slowly fell down and remained motionless.

Without looking at Fat Shan's body, Xu Qing panted and looked around carefully.

The place was remote and after making sure it did not attract attention, he quickly approached Fat Shan's body and took away the opponent's leather bag.

Just as he was about to stab him with his fangs, Xu Qing noticed that Pang Shan seemed to be holding something in his right hand, so he opened his fingers and saw a piece of amber that had been mostly broken into pieces.

This object looks normal, there is nothing surprising about it, except that there is a scorpion tail sealed inside.

Xu Qing took it away carefully, processed the corpse in the same way, and left quickly after the corpse turned into blood.

As he walked, he wiped the blood off his body and disappeared into the night.

The seventh master and his servants walked out of the darkness at this moment.

Looking at the place where Xu Qing disappeared, Qi Ye didn't seem to care much about the battle between Xu Qing and Pang Shan just now. Instead, he thought about it and showed an expression of sudden realization.

"I understand. That boy doesn't wear new clothes because he's afraid of being stained with blood. He's afraid of poverty and feels sorry for his clothes."

The servants on the side also breathed a sigh of relief.

Throughout the whole day, Qi Ye had been thinking about why the boy didn't wear new clothes. Now he finally had the answer, so he didn't have to figure out the reason every time he heard it.

Although it is a two-chapter update, they are actually big chapters. This chapter is almost 4,500 words, and the next chapter is almost 4,000 words.

Actually it could be split into 3 chapters, but I don’t think it’s necessary and it would destroy the integrity of the chapters.

I hope everyone can feel my sincerity. Thank you brothers and sisters for your support.
