Outside of time Chapter 17: What are you?

Perhaps because of the singing, the roars of alien beasts never appeared in this jungle, as if the source of the singing was the master of this restricted area.

When it appears, everything will be silent.

Team Lei sat there silently, still looking into the distance. It was pitch black and there was nothing there.

Xu Qing's expression was a little complicated. After a while, her eyes swept across the four directions, and finally landed on the barbarian's mace and the broken shield fragments.

The corpse of the barbarian, like all the corpses here, became dust when the fog of the song left, as if it had never existed in the world.

And scavengers often don't have any relatives, so maybe not many people care about their disappearance.

Even if there is, it will eventually be forgotten in the passage of time, until a few years later, no one knows, no one remembers.

Xu Qing suddenly thought of what the teacher in the slum, who was a good teacher to him, said to his group of children before Feng Zhu died of illness in his twilight years.

"It's a pain to have someone you can't forget in your heart, and it's a kind of happiness to be remembered in your heart."

At that time, Xu Qing didn't understand this sentence very well, but at the moment he looked at Lei Dui and understood the meaning of this sentence to some extent, so he didn't bother, but walked silently to the place where the corpse of the barbarian used to be. , took out the dagger and dug up the ground.

Although he didn't have a deep relationship with the savage ghost, it was a few days to be precise, and he didn't say a few words, but the other party taught him his jungle experience, and they walked out of the wolf catastrophe together. In the end, he also used the help of The opponent's thing blocks the black blood.

So Xu Qing felt that she should do something.

Just as he left the city and cremated the corpses of the city, he dug the soil **** the ground and gradually dug a hole.

Bury the barbarian's mace and shield fragments.

During this process, Xu Qing was very serious and didn't notice the Thunder Team behind him. At some point, he had withdrawn his gaze towards the jungle and was now looking at him.

In his expression, there was a strangeness when he looked at Xu Qing for the first time in the ruins of the city. After seeing Xu Qing buried the weapon of the barbarian, he seemed to want to make a tombstone, and the Thunder team spoke softly.

"Scavengers, don't need tombstones."

"Dust returns to dust, dirt returns to dirt. This is the life of a scavenger. During his lifetime, he struggled in the world.

Speaking of which, Thunder Team's breath became weaker and weaker. The serious injuries, the accumulation of heterogeneity, and the overdraft of his mind made him unable to hold on, the world slowly blurred, and he closed his eyes and passed out.

Xu Qing approached, took out some escherichia from his pocket, and stuffed it into Thunder Team's mouth.

He didn't know if it was useful, but he thought that since this thing is necessary for making Baidan, it still has the effect of alleviating heterogeneity.

After doing this, he carried the Thunder Team on his back and tied it tightly with his clothes. Then he took a deep breath and galloped through the jungle in the dark night.

When passing by the place where Captain Blood Shadow turned into dust, Xu Qing saw a leather bag, picked it up and opened it. There was no medicine pill in it, only some sundries.

So put it away and walk away.

It was half an hour later when Thunder Team's consciousness recovered weakly.

He vaguely felt that he was being carried by a thin body, undulating with its beating, slowly opened his eyes, and saw the profile of the young man in front of him.

He was silent.

Xu Qing also noticed Thunder Team's awakening and spoke in a low voice.

"Is it better? You can continue to sleep. In a few more hours, we should be able to get out of the restricted area before dawn."

Lei Dui didn't speak, and his weak body couldn't hide his old age. He tried to look up at the dark sky, his eyes slowly blurred, and when his consciousness was about to fall into a coma again, he murmured.

"Child, do you know why I asked to take you away twice in the ruined city?"

Xu Qing's figure didn't stop and shook her head.

"Then do you remember the scene when we met?" Thunder Team's voice was weak.

"Remember." Xu Qing's body moved, jumped up a big tree, raised his right hand to grab it, grabbed the alienized lizard that was hiding there, and was rushing fast, and threw it to the ground ahead.

With a bang, as the lizard fell, a large number of vines on the ground twisted and hurried to entangle them. During the struggle of the lizard, they were pierced by the leather armor and devoured their flesh.

Xu Qing took advantage of this opportunity to jump up, avoiding the danger and continuing to go.

At this moment, Thunder Team's weak muttering came from behind him. His voice was weak, and if it wasn't very close, it would be extremely hard to hear.

"I saw you cremating the corpse. You, who was beside the flame at that time, were illuminated by the fire, and seemed to be fused with the fire, which made me seem to see... a ray of warmth in this cruel world."

Xu Qing paused and fell silent, and the Thunder team behind him fell into a coma again.

After a few breaths, Xu Qing silently raised his feet and continued to gallop in the jungle, passing through the trees and leaving quickly.

Time passed, and soon an hour passed.

Xu Qing avoided danger and got closer and closer to the edge of the jungle.

At this moment, the sky is at its darkest, and the gloomy cold from the restricted area at night invades the surroundings. Fortunately, Xu Qing has been moving rapidly, and the heat generated by his body's instinct slightly resists the cold.

It's just... As he moved forward, the coldness became more and more intense. After a stick of incense, Xu Qing's figure suddenly stopped, looking gloomily ahead.

In front of him, a thick fog appeared in the jungle.

The fog was extremely thick, spreading in the distance, but unlike the blood fog Xu Qing had seen before, it didn't seem to have a strong sense of oppression.

As far as the eyes can see, the place shrouded in fog is blurred, and it is impossible to see everything around.

Especially at the moment, the dark night made the fog cover even stronger. Xu Qing wanted to avoid it, but after running for a long time, the fog was still coming.

He knew what it was.

Cross and Luanya said when they just walked into the restricted area that among the dangers in the restricted area, there is something called fog.

If covered by this fog, people will lose their way inside and eventually get lost.

And once the fog is formed, it often takes a long time to disperse naturally.

Xu Qing felt that although he could endure until the fog dissipated, the heterogeneity in his body would not skyrocket, but the weak Thunder Team couldn't.

This forced Xu Qing to step back, trying to avoid the fog with a wider range.

But... the fog is too big, no matter how fast he is, he still falls into a situation where there is fog on the front, back, left and right, and there is nowhere to hide, and he is submerged in the fog.

But soon, the fog that submerged Xu Qing's place gradually became thinner, and finally revealed Xu Qing's surprised figure again.

He lowered his head and looked at his feet.

There is no shadow in the dark night, but Xu Qing can feel the mist around him, which is rapidly pouring into the soles of his feet.

It's like the invisible shadow, forming a vortex that devours the surroundings.

The speed of this swallowing was not fast, and it didn't take long for it to seem full and no longer absorbed, causing the mist to drown Xu Qing's figure again.

But... as the swallowing of the shadow ended, a force of feedback poured into Xu Qing's body, gathering his eyes, and as far as he could see, the dense fog became transparent.

Or can not be described by looking, but perception!

The fog was still there, and it was extremely dense, but it was only slightly blurry in his perception, far from the point where it could stop the eyes from being lost.

This made Xu Qing breathe a little faster and looked down at the invisible shadow under his feet.

"You, what the hell..." Xu Qing whispered.

After a long while, he raised his head and sensed the surroundings. Silently leaned his body and moved immediately, his speed unabated, like a ghost in the thick fog, galloping past.

Until not long, Xu Qing, who was speeding in the dense fog, saw a living person.

Those are two scavengers.

Xu Qing vaguely remembered that they had seen each other in the camp. The two of them were holding hands with each other at the moment, like blind men in the thick fog, slowly exploring and moving forward.

But in Xu Qing's perception, they were actually walking in circles. Obviously, they had already noticed this. The sweat on their foreheads and the heavy breathing showed their nervousness and fear for the future. despair.

Glancing at the two of them, Xu Qing withdrew his gaze and was about to leave in a flash.

He has no overflowing sympathy. He lives in this cruel world and saves people without a purpose. In exchange for his own backlash, he has seen too many examples in the slums.

However, for those whose vision is covered, their hearing will be extremely sharp at this time, so the sound of Xu Qing's footsteps when leaving is still detected by them.

The expressions of the two immediately showed nervousness. They couldn't tell whether the sound was a human or a beast, so one of them roared and showed ferocity, as if to deter them.

The other was shouting for help, and even in order to show his sincerity, he took out Baidan and spirit coins from his leather bag, promising to send them out in his words, just for a chance.

Xu Qing stopped for a while, looked back at the Bai Dan in the man's hand, and felt the weakness of the Thunder team behind him.

So after thinking about it, I rummaged through the leather bag and found a candle to light, which made the place have a fire, but the fire was weak, and the fog suppressed it, and it was slowly dimming.

While the fire was still there, Xu Qing stepped back some distance, looked at the two not far away, and spoke slowly.

"Go straight for seven steps on the right, then ten steps on the left..."

As Xu Qing's voice came in, the two scavengers trembled, with ecstasy on their faces, and immediately followed Xu Qing's instructions while breathing quickly.

Soon under Xu Qing's successive orders, they circled left and right, avoiding the danger, and the mist in front of them gradually thinned as they approached the place where the candle was.

Until they walked into the range of the candle that was about to be extinguished, they were illuminated by the fire, like a blind man regaining the light, and instantly fell beside the candle, feeling excited and boiling intensely.

As for Xu Qing, he was hiding in the dark on the edge at the moment. Even if the firelight shone slightly, his figure was still blurred. He stared blankly at the excited appearance of the two in front of him, and spoke lightly.

"Give me Bai Dan."

One of them trembled. After the disaster, the rest of his life did not hesitate. He immediately threw the leather bag containing the spirit coins and Bai Dan to Xu Qing, thanking him repeatedly.

The other one was about to take the medicine pill from his body, but his excitement subsided after his eyes swept over Xu Qing's figure.

Because Xu Qing was in the dark place, the mist was thin, so in the eyes of this person, Xu Qing's face could not be seen clearly, only the thin body and a comatose person behind him.

So there was a glint in his eyes, but a smile appeared on his face, and he opened his mouth with a sincere look.

"This little brother, I have finished all the white pills on me, but don't worry, when the fog clears, or if you have a way to take me out, I will definitely repay you ~IndoMTL.com~ After finishing speaking, his eyes He blinked slightly and looked at where Xu Qing was, a little eager to try.

The companion next to him was also annoyed at the moment, feeling that he seemed to give too fast before.

Xu Qing took a deep look at the scavenger who didn't show Bai Dan, and said nothing.

Just raised the right hand and waved, the wind blew, the candle flame was extinguished instantly, and the surroundings were once again plunged into darkness and fog.

When the exclamation came from the man just now, Xu Qing approached and tore off the leather bag from his body, and then the calm voice echoed around.

"No need, just stay inside."

"Wait, I was wrong, I was really wrong, I'll give you Bai Dan, I..."

The man was in a hurry and wanted to grab something, but his body was stopped by the trees under his feet and he fell directly.

When he got up, his call became more anxious, and a strong sense of regret permeated his body and mind.

"Little brother, listen to my explanation, I..."

Xu Qing ignored the call of the other party and walked towards the other person who gave her Bai Dan.

This man's face was horrified now, and he was once again plunged into a fog full of panic. Without him noticing at all, Xu Qing passed by him and spoke lightly.

"Follow my footsteps."

After speaking, Xu Qing did not look back and continued to move forward. After hearing Xu Qing's words, the man was short of breath and immediately followed. He was grateful for the speed at which he was paid just now.

Especially when he heard the anxious wailing behind him quickly turned into a frantic swearing that failed to call for help, the despair in his tone made his heart tremble, and he had a stronger sense of awe for the owner of the footsteps in front of him.

I woke up late...it's too hot, I want to go to the jungle for a while...
