Outside of time Chapter 26: One person’s twilight
East of South Huangzhou.
The season has entered summer. With the gradual increase of rain, the weather has gradually become hot.
"It's May." After three poles a day, Xu Qing left from Master Bai's tent, looked up at the blue sky, looked at the dazzling sun, and murmured.
Unconsciously, two months have passed since he arrived at the camp.
Recalling his experience in Blood Rain City two months ago seems to have passed for a long time, but in Xu Qing's heart, it is still vivid in his mind.
But compared to when he lived in the slum more than two months ago, he has changed a lot.
Whether it is the improvement of cultivation, or the harvest of knowledge of plants and trees, Xu Qing feels that he is constantly growing.
And he also ate a lot of meat under the abundant food of Thunder Team during this time, so his body changed from the original thin to a slightly refined.
It is because of the practice of the Sea Mountain Art that his masculine energy and blood are extremely strong, and the aura emanating from his whole body instinctively gives people a sharp meaning.
Perhaps there was also a reason for copying the knife in the temple. Xu Qing's eyes were much brighter than others, and the more he copied, the more so.
Especially as he went to take classes with Master Bai, the accumulation of knowledge also added a layer of scholarly temperament to him.
All of this made Xu Qing's hands accustomed to being clean. Even if the dirt on his face still hadn't been washed off, he was no longer able to hide his delicate features.
This can be seen from the long-awaited calls from the dusty women in the tents with feathers in the camp.
But Xu Qing didn't pay attention to these. His mood has been a little low these days.
On the one hand, the Flower of Destiny was not found, and on the other hand, Thunder Team's old age and weakness became more and more obvious.
Therefore, Xu Qing went to the jungle in the restricted area less and less. Every day after Master Bai's class, he would instinctively go to his residence. Even if he practiced alone most of the time, he could feel the thunder team next door, Xu Qing. Will feel a lot more at ease.
He cherishes the meal time every night.
The same is true today. Xu Qing, who was silently walking in the camp, ignored the scavengers around him and went to the grocery store first.
After seeing his figure, the busy little girl ran behind the counter without saying a word, took out a pot of wine from it, and handed it directly to Xu Qing.
She is used to these days, Xu Qing buys wine at this time every day.
"Thank you." Xu Qing said softly, looking at the scar on the little girl's face.
Although there are hideous scars, the little girl is very optimistic. She smiled at Xu Qing. When she wanted to say something, she was called over by other scavengers.
Xu Qing didn't mind. He was about to leave with the jug, but his back fell into the little girl's peripheral vision. She hurriedly said a few words to the scavenger, ran to the gate, and looked at Xu Qing who was about to leave. , suddenly shouted.
"My little brother."
Xu Qing paused, and when she looked back, the little girl ran over quickly.
After approaching Xu Qing, she stretched out her right hand towards Xu Qing, with a piece of candy in it.
"I don't know why you're feeling down lately, but every time I'm unhappy, my mother will give me candy, and when I eat it, I'm happy."
"This is my last piece of candy for you."
The little girl said, for fear of Xu Qing's rejection, she put it in his hand and ran to the shop quickly until she reached the door of the shop. She looked back at Xu Qing and shouted loudly.
"Little brother, be happy!"
Xu Qing stood there in a daze, watching the little girl walk into the shop. He looked down at the candy in his hand, and for a long time... He carefully put away the candy.
On the way back, there was a commotion in the camp. From a distance, Xu Qing saw two motorcades outside the camp, coming one after the other.
The motorcade in front of him, whether it is the brand newness of the carriage or the sturdy horses, is far beyond anything Xu Qing has ever seen before. There are not only guards, but also three or five middle-aged people with spirits radiating from their bodies. Can fluctuate significantly and powerfully.
And they are clearly not the heart of the team.
With the arrival of the convoy, a group of young men and women walked down from the inside. They were all sixteen or seventeen years old, striding high, brightly dressed, and fair-skinned. At the same time, the men were handsome and the women were beautiful.
Obviously, their backgrounds and identities are very extraordinary. At this moment, they seem to dislike the mess in the camp, so the feeling of bossing the camp outside the camp is very obvious.
And each of them seems to have entourages around them, about a hundred people serving them, fifteen or sixteen boys and girls.
And the second team behind them, although not bad, is obviously ugly compared to the former.
And obviously knew the identities of those young men and women, so the second team was reluctant to contact the former, avoiding them and entering the camp, and the people who walked down were mostly low-key.
Xu Qing swept it away.
The convoys in the camp will appear every three or five times, either issuing missions or entering the restricted area alone, and there are everyone in it.
This is also the basis for the existence of the scavenger camp, and Xu Qing is accustomed to it.
When he returned to his residence, he saw Thunder Team in the yard moving his body. Under the sun, Thunder Team had the meaning of twilight on his body, and Xu Qing's heart was even lower.
"You bought me wine again, not bad." Noticing the jug in Xu Qing's hand, Lei Dui said with a smile.
"Okay, you go to clean up the kitchen, I'll go for a walk outside, buy some ingredients and come back." Lei Dui said, and left with his hands behind his back.
This is what he and Xu Qing agreed. He must buy the ingredients. Xu Qing did not refuse, but gave more rent.
Seems like that's how he gets along with the Thunder.
This day, Team Lei came back earlier than usual. Xu Qing almost finished cleaning up the kitchen when he walked back with some meat, smiled at Xu Qing, and started cooking.
Xu Qing was sitting next to him and studying as usual, but when he looked at it, he felt something was wrong... If things go on like this, the meal time will be earlier today, no longer in the evening.
Realizing this, Xu Qing understood something in his heart. Watching the busy Lei team hesitated, he finally fell silent.
Team Thunder is as usual, talking while cooking.
The parents are short and middle, the evening has not arrived, and the food has already been cooked. After placing it on the table, Team Lei looked at Xu Qing who was silent and touched his head.
"Child, I've already purchased the entry qualification for Songtao City. I'll pack my luggage later, and I'll leave early tomorrow morning." Lei Dui picked up the wine he bought for him for a long time and took a sip.
Xu Qing froze, and after a long silence, she lowered her head and said softly.
"So soon."
Team Lei didn't speak, and after a long while there was laughter.
"Actually, I bought it a long time ago, and I haven't told you. You don't have to be reluctant. In this world, there is no such thing as a banquet." Lei Dui said, and took another gulp of wine.
"Come, have dinner."
Xu Qing looked at the vicissitudes of Lei Dui, picked up the chopsticks silently, and ate silently. The food that day should be delicious, but in Xu Qing's mouth, there is no taste.
Lei Dui watched all this and sighed in his heart, but he still had a smile on his face, talking about trivial matters in the camp, until after a stick of incense, Xu Qing suddenly spoke.
"Don't wait for Cross and Luan Ya, they should be back soon."
"No wait, coming back is probably the same as you, which will only add to the sadness. Besides, if you have time in the future, come and see me."
Lei Dui took out the chimney from his arms and took a sip. The smoke he exhaled covered his expression, making him a little hazy.
This meal, Thunder team ate very quickly.
Until he left to pack his luggage, Xu Qing still sat there silently, looking at the food on the table, he couldn't eat anymore. After a while, he stood up. For the first time, instead of cleaning the dishes, he came to Thunder team room.
"Are you really going?" Xu Qing asked softly.
"Don't be so sad, I'm going to live in the city, you have to be happy for me."
Team Lei laughed and called Xu Qing over to help him fold his clothes.
Xu Qing walked over silently. First, he carefully washed his hands, and then folded them neatly.
With his help, Team Lei's luggage was quickly sorted out, most of which he didn't want and left to Xu Qing.
"This house is also given to you."
"I'll pay the rent." Xu Qing said seriously.
Team Lei smiled and didn't talk about this topic. Instead, he pulled Xu Qing to sit there, and as time passed, he talked to him about the character of the scavengers in the camp. Camp owner.
"The owner of the camp is not a simple person. His background is King Kong Sect."
"The King Kong Sect is the number one force in this large area. Dozens of cities and camps are under their control, and their ancestors are even stronger foundation builders. You will be here in the future. Be wary of him at all times."
Speaking of which, it was very late outside, Xu Qing noticed the tiredness on Lei Dui's face and silently stood up and left.
Looking at his figure for a long time, Thunder Team sighed softly.
And that night was also the first night that Xu Qing had not practiced since this time.
He sat there staring blankly at the dark night, until he saw the sky turned white, until he saw the light of the early sun.
"It's gone so fast." Xu Qing muttered, filled with melancholy in his heart. He didn't leave the room at this time as usual, but waited for the sound of Thunder Team opening the door before he walked out slowly.
In the early sun, the morning sun is falling, and the old and the young are staring at each other in the yard.
"Child, I'm leaving." After a long time, Thunder team smiled.
"I will send you."
"No, you go to class."
"I will send you."
"You..."
"I'll take you off." Xu Qing looked at Team Lei and spoke again.
Team Lei looked at Xu Qing, and after a while, he showed helplessness and nodded.
In this way, the old man and the young man, in this early morning camp, while most of the other scavengers did not wake up, moved forward and left, passing by Master Bai's tent, Xu Qing ran over.
Master Bai has not arrived yet, and the young Chen Feiyuan is not there, only Tingyu is there carrying the pharmacopoeia.
"Excuse me, please take a day off for me." After seeing Tingyu, Xu Qing spoke quickly, bowed to her, and turned to leave.
Tingyu was a little surprised. When she went out, she saw Xu Qing and Lei Dui far away.
The light of the early sun shone down on the ground, reflected in front of Xu Qing and Lei Dui, and shrouded their figures, getting further and further away.
Along the way, Xu Qing took Lei Team's package, carried it on his back, and remained silent.
Team Lei was confused. Looking at the stubborn boy, he wanted to talk about trivial matters about the camp's neighborhood as usual, but after a few words, he couldn't go on.
In the silence, the two walked into the mountain where they came from, and walked to the place where they once rested. At that time, it was the same two of them, with the Thunder team in front and Xu Qing cautiously behind.
The former is as deep as a sword, while the latter is as lonely as a wolf.
Today, Xu Qing is in the front, and Lei is in the back.
The former is tall and straight like a peak, the latter is staggering.
Here, at Xu Qing's insistence, he carried the old Thunder Team, just like when he was in the jungle.
Team Lei sighed in his heart, looking at the young man's profile in front of him, after being silent, he spoke softly.
"Afterwards in the camp, you should pay more attention to those scavengers."
"I know you are very powerful now, but you can't underestimate them, scavengers, they are desperadoes, and it is common for them to do whatever they can..."
"Don't forget to feed the dogs at night, these little guys are the most trustworthy in the camp."
"And you have to remember to eat, don't eat cold, don't be troublesome, eat hot again... You are still growing, so don't be sloppy."
"Otherwise, when you're older, you'll know it's hard. By the way, don't sleep on the bed board in the future, don't be afraid of getting the quilt dirty, and remember to dry it in the sun after washing."
"And..."
Team Lei spoke softly, his words shredded with deep concern.
Xu Qing carried Thunder Team on his back, nodded lightly, and took the other party's words into his heart.
Until Lei Dui was talking ~IndoMTL.com~ and fell asleep due to his weakness, Xu Qing's footsteps softened as he heard the snoring behind him.
Try to keep yourself from jumping as much as possible, and keep steady even if you detour.
In this way, he carried the Thunder Team through the wilderness, bypassing the basin, until dusk appeared, as the sky became dark, the corners of the light stretched their silhouettes, and a city appeared in Xu Qing's eyes middle.
It was also at this time that Thunder Team woke up. He looked at the city, at the city gate, and said softly after a while.
"It's here."
Xu Qing hummed softly, a feeling of stuffing in his chest, at Lei Dui's request, he gently put it down.
After taking the package from Xu Qing's hand, Team Lei looked at the city gate and then at Xu Qing. After a moment of silence, he smiled, raised his hand and touched Xu Qing's head, messing up his hair. some.
"Children, go back, think of me as an old man in the future, come over at any time, I live at No.
Xu Qing stood there, watching Lei Dui who was walking further and further away.
After reaching the city gate and submitting the eligibility to enter the city, the Thunder team suddenly turned around.
He took a deep look at Xu Qing, raised his hand and waved, under the urging of the guard at the city gate, he walked into the city and disappeared.
Xu Qing looked lonely and waited for a long time... When dusk fell and the city gate was closed, his heart suddenly felt empty.
"Take care..." After a while, Xu Qing murmured, turning around bitterly, the feeling of loneliness once again permeated his body.
As the night falls, his lonely figure is gradually obscured.
One goes to the wilderness, one goes to the basin, one goes to the mountain.
Farther and farther.
