Outside of Time

Chapter 78 Zhang San’s Bet

For most people in Qixuetong, this night seemed to be no different from usual, but for some people, it was a little different.

Some people lamented that Fa Zhou was envious of others for being extraordinary.

Some people were hysterical and angry, swearing to cut their bodies into pieces.

Some people are rocking chairs in a narrow sense, and there are mountains of fruit cores around them.

Some people are bitter at the inn and feel extremely flustered.

Sometimes to judge whether a person has integrated into the environment, it is not to look at the person's achievements here, nor to look at the person's behavior, but to look at how many people's emotions he can attract.

The ones who are envious are the Seventy-nine Port disciples, the ones who are hysterical are the mermaid monks, the ones who are like nuts are the captains of the Sixth Team, and the ones who are panicking are the ancestors of the Vajra Sect.

But no matter what, when the morning light falls, the thoughts at night also rise with the rising sun and slowly disappear, just like the people leaving the poem tired after a sleepless night of dragon and fish dance in the poem.

So, when the early morning light fell along the dilapidated cabin and reflected outside Xu Qing's eyelids, tapping gently, Xu Qing opened his eyes and blended the darkness in his eyelids with the brightness of the outside world.

The eyes exposed in the sun are crystal clear, just like the early sunshine outside, carrying expectations for the future.

"I wonder if the morning at sea has more charm." Xu Qing murmured softly, with yearning deep in his eyes, and stood up.

Today, he has a lot to do.

First of all, he has to go to the Fish Hunting Department to take a long vacation for the next trip to sea. This process is not complicated in the Fish Hunting Department. Disciples of the Seventh Peak are often not in the port. Since they practice at sea, going to sea is naturally indispensable.

So after reporting to the Criminal Investigation Department, Xu Qing completed a series of procedures and received a forty-day holiday. If you return early, you can cancel your leave. If the time is delayed, you can also make up for it afterwards.

After doing this, it was still early, but Xu Qing's pace did not slow down, and he went to the shop on the Sixth Peak. Although he had experienced what happened before, the incident of that day should not happen again, but Xu Qing had to be on guard, so in It took some effort to find the shop.

But in the end Xu Qing was still a little hesitant. He was looking at a shop and was hesitating whether to go in or not when the captain sent a message from his identity token.

"Xu Qing, have you forgotten something recently?"

Xu Qing was startled and started thinking.

"Forget it, I just said it, Xu Qing, you owe me the five hundred spirit stones, when will you pay me back?"

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed and he replied.

"One hundred spirit stones!"

"Okay, okay, I won't argue with you so much. Three hundred is enough. When will you give it to me?"

Xu Qing remained silent, took out the bamboo slip with the enemy's name engraved on it, and crossed out the question mark after the word captain.

"Why don't you say anything? I saw that you took a leave of absence from the office. Isn't it because you want to go to sea to escape debts? That's all. Going to sea is very dangerous, and the requirements for the dharma boat are very high. In order to prevent you from dying outside, which caused my Five hundred spiritual stones are in vain, let me remind you to find Zhang San for the magic boat!"

"Zhang San?" Xu Qing was a little confused.

Speaking of Zhang San, the captain seemed to be more interested. After giving some pointers on the jade slip of the sound transmission, and telling Xu Qing how to express and speak, he ended the sound transmission.

Xu Qing stood there, pondering for a long time, and finally found Zhang San from the Transportation Department with some weirdness and surprise.

When he arrived at the Transportation Department, Zhang San was squatting on a pile of goods, smoking a pipe, looking like an old man with a narrow expression, enjoying the moisture of tobacco and sunshine, and occasionally shouting a few times to direct the handymen of the Transportation Department to work.

After seeing Xu Qing's figure, Zhang San's eyelids narrowed slightly. After looking carefully, his eyes lit up.

"Ah, how come Junior Brother Xu is free today and comes to my place?"

Xu Qing walked closer, looked at Zhang San squatting on the cargo, and jumped onto the cargo. But this time, before he could keep a certain distance, Zhang San quickly moved out.

Xu Qing glanced at Zhang San and squatted down.

Zhang San looked at Xu Qing in the sun with a smile, especially the side face that could make the opposite sex obsessed. He couldn't help but murmured a few words in his heart, but his expression didn't reveal anything.

"It's better to squat for comfort."

"Yeah." Xu Qing nodded.

"What's going on?"

"Senior Brother Zhang, I want to refine and upgrade my magic boat."

"Lianfa Ark? Who told you to come to me? Your captain?" Zhang San was stunned.

Xu Qing said nothing, took out two apples and gave one to Zhang San.

Zhang San instinctively took the apple. After holding it in his hand, he suddenly regretted it and wanted to give it back, but Xu Qing didn't take it.

Zhang San smiled bitterly, his eyes slowly showing deep thoughts. After weighing the apple in his hand, he looked at Xu Qing again.

Xu Qing also looked sideways at him.

After a while, Zhang San suddenly smiled.

"Promise me one thing, and I will help you practice."

"Senior Brother Zhang, please speak." Xu Qing noticed the words in the other party's words. It was not that he was looking for someone to help him practice, but that the other party did it himself.

"When you look at me in the future, can you stop staring at my neck? It's such a hot day... I'm afraid of the cold." Zhang San winked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing thought for a moment, then looked away and looked into Zhang San's eyes.

Zhang Sanyi patted his head and sighed.

"Your eyes always make me feel weird, as if wherever you look at me, I will be hurt. Forget it, it's rare for you to change your gaze. I'll help you practice, but I agreed in advance that I The refining boat is very expensive..." With that said, Zhang San jumped off the cargo and waved to Xu Qing.

Xu Qing stood up, clasped his fists, and followed. Soon the two came to the back of the Transportation Department, where there was a huge warehouse. When the warehouse door was opened, the light formed by countless refining materials spread brightly.

Xu Qing was stunned for a moment and noticed that the types and quality of the materials inside were extraordinary. In particular, he saw seven or eight dismantled boats and even a coastal defense vessel being assembled in the distance. Half a battleship...

There were also boats from other foreign races scattered around. All of this made him take a breath, and he felt as if he had gone to the shop on the Sixth Peak.

So he couldn't help but look at the proud Zhang San.

"How about it, let me tell you, among the disciples of the Seventh Peak, I am not good at fighting, and my cultivation level is average. But when it comes to boat refining, hum, there are not many disciples of the Sixth Peak who are better than me. In these four weeks There are more than a dozen warehouses filled with my works." Zhang San said proudly with his hands behind his back.

"And no one dares to rob it!"

"Senior Brother Zhang is really a disciple of the Seventh Peak?" Xu Qing hesitated for a moment, remembering the captain's words, so he tried his best to open his eyes wide, pretending to be shocked, and asked.

"That's what your captain asked at the beginning, hahaha. It's a pity that my talent was discovered too late, otherwise I would be the core disciple of the Sixth Peak now." Zhang San enjoyed Xu Qing's expression and felt extremely comfortable in his heart.

"Show me your dharma boat."

Xu Qing showed respect in his eyes, and took out his vial of the Dharma Boat and handed it over. Zhang San took it and scanned it, frowning slightly, but didn't say anything. When he was about to take it to refine it, Xu Qing hesitated and thought of the captain again. The words taught, so he spoke.

"Senior Brother Zhang San, I think this Dharma Ark of mine has been refined quite well. Many parts of it have reached a very high level."

"Not bad? High level?" Zhang San stopped, his eyebrows suddenly raised into an inverted figure eight, and he couldn't help but speak.

"This is such a mess. It's just the materials. The technique is extremely poor. There are also flaws in the formation on both sides of the ship."

"The scales are attached incorrectly and damage the structure of the Dharma Ark. This will definitely affect the spirit gathering array. It looks like it was made by those rubbish disciples from the Sixth Peak."

"And the front and rear of the ship. This is a sixth-class boat, not a first-class boat. The focus is not on the shape, but on the inner substance... Why do you make it so gorgeous? To attract enemies!"

"Practicality is the best choice."

"Garbage, the refining is too much garbage. If you don't go out to sea, your Dharma boat will be used. Once it encounters storms and large sea monsters at sea, it will not have sufficient strength, stiffness, stability and reliability under the action of external forces. Being able to maintain a certain degree of watertightness is already the ultimate.”

Zhang San looked at the vial of Fazhou and criticized it.

After Xu Qing heard this, he was shocked in his heart. He felt that the other party's words were very professional, so he became more respectful and bowed to Zhang San with cupped fists.

Seeing Xu Qing like this, Zhang San felt proud and comfortable. He liked to see those fellow disciples who were usually respected by others admire their profession in front of him. The original captain was like this, although he lost a lot of spirit afterwards. stone……

Originally, he didn't want to criticize this time, he just planned to simply refine it, but Xu Qing's good words made him unable to hold back.

But Zhang San didn't have any ill intentions. What he said was correct. It would be no problem for ordinary disciples to put such a Dharma boat out to sea. However, Xu Qing's combat power determined that he would challenge stronger sea beasts and go to sea more... It is a dangerous area, so naturally this kind of boat is not suitable.

"Looking at your direction, it should be strong. Let me help you get it. Make sure that your ark is on the sea. Even if it is hit by a giant beast, as long as the giant beast has not reached the foundation, your ark can withstand a lot of resistance. Even if it is broken, it will be difficult to disintegrate!" Zhang San waved his hand proudly and said proudly.

"Thank you, senior brother." Xu Qing looked solemn, and then took out the spirit stone from his pocket.

"I have two hundred spirit stones here, and I still need to reserve some for going to sea. I don't know..." Xu Qing hesitated. He felt that his spirit stones were not enough.

Zhang San swept his eyes, then looked at Xu Qing. The words of the captain of the sixth team and what he saw in Liufeng's shop came to mind. He also thought of the sound of the dragon whale last night and the spiritual fluctuations he had just felt. Finally, he thought I had just been so happy to criticize and felt so comfortable, so I endured the heartache and pretended to be relaxed.

"That's enough. You boy might have a lot of future in the future. I invested in your captain back then, and you... I also treat it as an investment. Come and pick it up tonight." Zhang San said and started to get busy.

Xu Qing raised his head, took a deep look at Zhang San, thanked him solemnly, bowed deeply with fists in his hands, and then left.

It wasn't until Xu Qing walked away that Zhang San sighed and murmured sadly.

"I'm losing money. Every time I see these fast practitioners, why can't I change my shortcomings in showing off my skills? I used to just practice casually, but now... I have to live up to what I said."

"Eh, that's not right. This kid's demeanor is a bit similar to his captain... But his captain is petty and didn't even give him a single spirit stone at the beginning. This kid has more conscience than his captain."

But in the final analysis, he knew that he did this because the captain recommended him, and secondly... he believed in the captain's vision.

"This investment should not be a loss!"

Over the years, he has gone from true obscurity to deliberate obscurity now. He is sitting on such wealth, controlling the transportation department, and no one can rob him. The reason for all this is that he made a boat for the captain.

At this moment, Xu Qing, with a strange look on his face after leaving the Transportation Department, took out the sound transmission jade slip, hesitated for a moment and then sent the message to the captain.

"Captain, is this okay?"

"Just follow what I taught you."

"said……"

"Haha, that's fine. It's okay. Zhang San is one of his own. This guy is a big businessman. If you feel you are taking advantage, help him more in the future."

Xu Qing nodded seriously, took out the bamboo slip, and wrote Zhang San's name on the other side. Then he turned it over and looked at the side with the enemy engraved on it, and added a question mark behind the captain.

At the moment, the captain of the sixth team of the Murder Division was smiling as he ate the exotic fruits that could not be bought in the main city and were only produced on foreign islands in the sea.

After eating, he put down the message slip and picked up a document next to him reporting Zhang San. It stated that Zhang San was bloody and brutal, killed too many people, and robbed foreign merchant ships during his mission. The document strongly protested against this and demanded Severe punishment.

After looking at the document, the captain chuckled, and with a wave of his hand, the document burned and turned into ashes.

"My friend, no one can touch me under this mountain as long as they don't betray me."
