Outside of time Chapter 34: Unexpectedly
In the temple complex, there are corpses everywhere.
There are guards, entourages, and a few who know the dangers of the restricted area. The corpses of the young people who stay on the books, they retain the horror of their lives, and stare at the sky.
Other than that, it's dead jellyfish.
Different from the human race, the jellyfish will turn into a mass of gray mud after death, filled with bursts of stench, very different from the gorgeous and colorful life.
At the same time, it also exudes an extremely rich heterogeneity, invading the surrounding and eroding everything.
And this sudden disaster is still going on.
As the boys and girls hurriedly retreated, the jellyfish group roared and pursued. In the periphery of the restricted area of the jungle, killing and death were still being staged.
When Xu Qing came to the temple complex, it was an hour later.
Walking in the temple complex, Xu Qing looked at the corpses everywhere, but his expression did not change much.
Corpses, he saw too many.
Passing by the corpses of guards and followers, Xu Qing collected some dead jellyfish and prepared to go back to study.
As for the items on these corpses, almost all of them have been invaded by the rich and heterogeneous formed after the death of the jellyfish, and they are no longer usable.
Until Xu Qing came to a corpse, his footsteps stopped.
This is the corpse of an old man. There is a big hole in the chest. The blood that flows out has dried up. In the open, dim eyes, there seems to be the regret of his life.
Looking at the corpse, Xu Qing sighed softly.
He is not a god, so even if the other party buys his own insurance, he cannot completely guarantee their safety, especially when the fog does not appear.
After silence, Xu Qing squatted down, covered Old Stone's open eyes, and buried him again.
There is no monument, because the Thunder Team said that most of the scavengers had no relatives before they died, and they did not need to pay tribute.
Dust to dust, dust to dust.
This is the life of a scavenger, struggling in the world before death, and after death... just be quiet.
This kind of sadness is actually the destination of the vast majority of scavengers.
Standing in front of the grave of the old stone, Xu Qing looked towards the camp outside the restricted area in the distance, recalling the past few months of life.
It has been four months since he came to this scavenger camp.
Captain Blood Shadow is dead, Fire Crow is dead, Fat Mountain Horse Si is dead, Barbarian is dead, Old Stone is dead, Thunder Team retreats, Bone Knife seeks death, and many more scavengers also died silently .
In a cruel and troubled world, human life is like a must.
"Only when you become stronger can you survive." Xu Qing murmured, her expression slowly indifferent, she turned and left.
At this moment, in the afterglow of the setting sun, there is a wind blowing, blowing the clothes of the distant young man.
This voice also seemed to have some coldness, gradually weakening, until it disappeared into the jungle along with its figure.
The afterglow fell, and the light gradually faded, but it still tried to penetrate the dense leaves, trying to reflect the sparse light on the young man running in the jungle.
But the speed of the young man is too fast, and light seems to be unable to catch up.
Until not long, Xu Qing's footsteps suddenly stopped. After stopping, he looked down at the ground with doubts in his eyes.
Soon, Xu Qing squatted down and sniffed carefully, and finally his eyes landed on a blade of grass, which had a hard-to-detect powder on it.
If it wasn't for Xu Qing's more solid grasp of poisonous weeds and his understanding of the smell of this restricted area, it would be difficult to detect the abnormality.
It took him a long time to discern at this moment before he picked up the leaf that was covered with a layer of powder, concentrated for a moment and then muttered.
"The exact ingredients are unknown, but there must be centipede blood in it!"
Xu Qing's eyes flashed brightly. In Master Bai's course, there was an introduction to the blood of the centipede.
This kind of blood has certain medicinal properties, but it is more of a catalyst, so it can be formulated with other medicines to attract specific beasts, which is often needed when hunting.
"The arrival of those jellyfish has something to do with this?" Xu Qing narrowed his eyes, put down the leaf with a deadly danger, and took out a packet of poisonous powder and sprinkled it on his body.
After using this to dispel the centipede's blood aura he had just contaminated, he shook his body and moved in a different direction.
Xu Qing didn't plan to go to the place where the boys and girls brought by the old stone were evacuated. This matter had nothing to do with him, and was unwilling to participate in it.
Even if there are friends of Chen Feiyuan among these people, he is not obliged to help, and these people are surrounded by strong men who can fight the giant jellyfish, which is equally dangerous to Xu Qing.
The most important thing is that among these young men and women, there is a high probability that someone deliberately attracts jellyfish, and the purpose is unknown.
So after noticing their position, Xu Qing changed direction, circled around, and returned to the pharmacy in the canyon when it was getting dark.
After putting away the herbs he had picked, he continued to study Bai Dan.
It's just that although Xu Qing didn't go to the retreat of the young men and women, when the middle of the night came, Xu Qing, who was preparing herbal medicine in the pharmacy, still heard the roar and the sound of fighting in the distance, and it was getting closer. He frowned.
Until the sound of footsteps came, Xu Qing secretly sighed.
He stood up, walked out of the pharmacy, and saw the direction of the entrance to the canyon by the moonlight, where there was a sound of surprise.
"There's a way!!"
"Come in, everyone."
Along with the voice, there were a few shabby and embarrassed teenagers.
They had panic on their faces. There were more than a dozen people behind them, most of whom were their companions of the same age, and seven or eight guards who were all wounded.
After a total of more than 20 people ran into the canyon one after another, while the guards were desperately guarding the entrance, these young men and women who survived the catastrophe also breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time noticed the environment in the canyon.
They quickly saw Xu Qing's pharmacy and Xu Qing standing there.
"Someone!"
The moment they saw Xu Qing, these young men and women were like frightened birds. They immediately retreated in exclamation. The three guards behind them came quickly and looked at Xu Qing with vigilance and murderous intent.
This murderous intention made Xu Qing's eyes a little cold. After he glanced coldly at the guards, he looked at the group of young men and women. There were two of them, so he paid attention.
One of them was a little older than him, about sixteen or seventeen years old. Although he was in a state of embarrassment, unlike the others, his face showed little panic, but mostly vigilance.
The other is a young girl with a very sweet appearance. Although her clothes are dirty and frightened, Xu Qing, who is used to seeing all kinds of life, can see at a glance that this person's fright is very false.
Especially... the woman's right hand is wearing a glove, which seems to be for cleanliness, but for Xu Qing, who uses poison, the glove has many functions.
For example, sprinkle powder.
"Eight guards, whose cultivation base is between six and seven, and the others whose cultivation base is below five layers, are divided into three small teams."
"Only those two people, the man with the seventh-level cultivation level, and the woman... they should be the ones who attract the jellyfish. As for the few strong men who fought against the giant jellyfish, they are not among them. Large jellyfish led away."
This is Xu Qing's habit, and those young men and women can't imagine that Xu Qing can see so many details just by scanning it.
But these guards were obviously different from those young men and women. They felt the coldness in Xu Qing's eyes, and they looked at the eye pharmacy again, and they were all vigilant.
To be able to find such a canyon in the restricted area, and to build a house in the canyon, all of which means that this young man is not only familiar with the restricted area, but also lives here.
Such people are extremely dangerous.
"Fellow Daoist, is your lord here? We have no ill intentions, we are just chasing by alien beasts, so we take this to avoid."
"As soon as the sun rises, we will leave. Please forgive me for disturbing you."
These guards were instinctively polite.
Their words also made the frightened young men and women behind them feel that something was wrong, and they all looked at Xu Qing.
The eldest boy looked at Xu Qing a few more times with a solemn expression, while the girl with gloves narrowed her eyes.
She swept the pharmacy and smelled the faint scent of herbs around her. She had a sense of the young man in front of her.
Xu Qing frowned, looked at them, and then at the entrance. After a while, she didn't speak, acquiescing to their existence, and turned to the pharmacy.
His acquiescence made those guards relieved, while the young men and women behind them were mostly apprehensive.
Only the girl with gloves, after a strange light flashed in her eyes, spoke in a low voice with a cautious and aggrieved voice.
"You...you are so rude, we just want to hide here, there are alien beasts outside, we will definitely die when we go out."
Her voice carried a feeling of love and pity, which made several teenagers around her who admired her also gathered up the courage to speak to Xu Qing one after another.
"Yeah, why are you so cold-blooded."
"We don't mean anything, just take a break here."
"The restricted area is not his home, so why should we ask him!"
A simple sentence ~IndoMTL.com~ caused some people's hostility towards Xu Qing. Although this hostility was not much, it still made the girl a little proud.
She wants to use others to test the truth of the young man in front of her.
But in the next moment, a gleam of cold light suddenly flashed from Xu Qing, and a whistling sound suddenly came out, and a dagger was like a flash of lightning approaching the proud girl.
She was about to dodge when her expression changed when the dagger flew past her ear, cutting off some of her hair, and with a bang, it stabbed deeply into the stone wall behind her, shooting out some sparks .
The girl's heart was shocked, her right hand instinctively raised her breath, and when she looked at Xu Qing, she saw the young man in front of her, with indifferent eyes like a wolf, with killing intent.
This look made her heart tremble, and the guards and other young men and women around were startled.
"We meet by chance, don't come and test me." Xu Qing gave the girl a deep look, suppressed the murderous intention in her heart, opened her mouth slowly, turned around and walked towards the pharmacy.
Under the moonlight, his figure seemed to merge with the moonlight, revealing the coldness of the night, flowing in the minds of everyone in the canyon, causing them to gradually become silent.
In the feelings of many people, the canyon seems to be as dangerous as the jellyfish group outside.
In this silence, the moment Xu Qing walked to the door of the pharmacy, a shrill scream came from the entrance.
A small jellyfish found the entrance, penetrated the body of a guard, devoured his internal organs, and rushed into the canyon.
Behind him, a group of jellyfish roared.
