Outside of time Chapter 4: Uninvited guests

The moment he turned around, Xu Qing quickly swept behind him.

He saw seven or eight feet away, seven people in different positions, approaching him scatteredly.

These seven people are all adults, male and female, mainly dressed in leather jackets, dark gray in color, and hanging many leather bags.

Everyone has weapons on them, and they are scattered.

Three of them held bows and two of them held knives. Neither left their backs to each other, as if they were on guard.

There is another person with gloves on his hands, walking alone, in the middle.

As for the person who had a strange tone of yin and yang just now, it was a tall and strong man.

This person is carrying a huge battle axe and is also the closest to Xu Qing.

He is extremely burly, with a hideous scar on his face, and a beard full of beards. At this moment, there is cruelty in his eyes, and he takes big steps with a grim smile, approaching Xu Qing.

All of this is what Xu Qing sees after a glance.

His pupils contracted, and his mind instantly analyzed that these people were not like a whole, but more like a temporary team.

This is clear from their positioning and precaution.

Moreover, Xu Qing had already guessed the identities of these people. They...are all scavengers!

There are no shortage of scavengers in Nanhuang Continent. Most of them are ferocious and have no bottom line to speak of. Everything is a naked predator of the weak.

Obviously this time, the blood rain in the restricted area stopped, the barrier opened, and the scavengers around were attracted and flocked.

For them, although the restricted area is dangerous, they are people who live at the tip of the knife. The resources contained in the empty city are enough to make them red-eyed.

Even if most of the materials are polluted, there are still valuable things.

As the thoughts in his heart were spinning rapidly, Xu Qing swayed and was about to jump from one side.

But the big man who was approaching him, seeing Xu Qing about to run away, had even more murderous intent in his eyes, and his bloodthirsty smile filled his eyes.

"Want to run? I like to torture and kill a brat like you the most. There should be a lot of items in your leather bag, Thunder Team, this kid, give it to me."

The cruelty in the big Han's eyes seems to be able to radiate from his pupils, forming a deterrent. With his tall body and battle axe, he feels a great sense of oppression.

At this moment, he strode forward, his right battle axe was even more swung, and he threw it in the direction that Xu Qing wanted to jump.

With a whimper, the battle axe pierced the distance between the two sides with a whistling sound, approaching from mid-air in an instant.

The big man is very strong and his movements are not slow, but Xu Qing's speed is even faster. Almost at the moment when the battle axe arrived, his body suddenly accelerated to avoid him.

The battle axe whizzed past him.

The gust of wind blew on Xu Qing's face, and blew his messy hair a little, revealing the cold, wolf-like eyes under his hair.

In the next instant, Xu Qing rolled over on the ground, but instead of running away, he approached the big man, raised his right hand, and a jet-black iron sign appeared directly in his hand.

Taking advantage of the opponent's inferior height, Xu Qing jumped up sharply, the iron stick in his hand stabbed at the big man's chin from bottom to top!

All this was too fast. Xu Qing's thin body and his previous attempts to escape formed a natural cover for his move, so that the big man also felt a sense of life and death crisis at this moment.

But after all, he is very experienced. At this moment, his face changed greatly, and his upper body suddenly leaned back, avoiding the iron sign in a dangerous way, but a bloodstain was still drawn on his chin.

But before his heart was burning with anger, Xu Qing looked indifferent, and he quickly pulled the dagger from his calf after missing a single blow.

When the upper body of the big man leaned back, he directly lowered his body and stabbed the dagger into the back of the big man's right foot.

With a puff, the dagger penetrated the straw sandals, penetrated the flesh and blood, and nailed it directly into the soil!

The big man's expression was distorted, severe pain engulfed his body, and a shrill scream suddenly came out. He was about to fight back, but Xu Qing was too agile. ready.

The swaying flames covered his face, making him look a little shaky, but those wolf-like eyes could not be covered by the flames, and he looked at the scavengers with vigilance and ferocity.

All of this happened so fast, and Xu Qing's age and physique were confusing, so many of the scavengers were careless and didn't react immediately.

At this moment, their eyes were fierce, and the eyes of the three who opened the bow were sharp.

Xu Qing, who was hiding behind the bunker, did not look at the big man not far away who screamed and pulled out the dagger on the back of his foot. Instead, he swept over the three bow-holders and finally looked at the one standing in the middle. The man with the glove.

This man is an old man. Although his clothes are similar to the others, his eyes are the sharpest, and on him, Xu Qing faintly felt the subtle fluctuations of his psychic energy.

From his position and the instinctive gazes of others around him, Xu Qing had some judgment in his heart.

The other party... should be the temporary leader of these scavengers.

Xu Qing looked at the old man and analyzed it in his heart, and the old man was also looking at him with something strange in his eyes.

Soon the old man looked away, looking at the incineration flame that was still rising not far away, and became silent.

At this moment, the big man who drew the dagger, with fury in his eyes, let out a roar, and was about to rush towards Xu Qing.

"Little brat, see how I kill you!"

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed, revealing a fierce light, just as he was about to make a move, but at this moment, an old voice came calmly.

"Enough!"

These two words seemed to have a shock and awe, so that the roaring big man had to stop and look back at the speaker.

The one who spoke was the old man with gloves that Xu Qing had just expected.

"Thunder Team..."

"This child should be a survivor of the slum outside, and the gods are all open to him, so don't take action, let's go."

"But..." There was a strong unwillingness in the big man's eyes. He believed that he was only careless before. If he really shot, he would crush Xu Qing's neck in a few breaths.

Just as he was about to speak, the old man gave him a faint look.

"Do you want me to say it a second time?"

The big man was struggling, but in the end he lowered his head.

When he just lowered his head, he looked out of the corner of his eye to Xu Qing who was hiding in the bunker, murderous intent flashed across his face, then turned around with a gloomy face, and limped towards the old man.

Xu Qing felt this murderous intention, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the group of scavengers vigilantly, and gradually walked away.

But just after they walked several dozen feet away, the old man in the middle paused and turned his head, not knowing whether he was looking at Xu Qing or the burning flames of the cremated corpses, he suddenly spoke after a while.

"Child, would you like to leave here with me?"

Xu Qing was stunned. He noticed that the other party's words were talking about me, not us.

So he fell silent, his eyes swept across the group, and the old man was patient, without urging, standing in the distance waiting for the answer.

After more than ten breaths, Xu Qing swept over these people many times, looked at the old man, and then looked at the gloomy-looking big man who was injured by him.

A strange light flashed in the boy's eyes.

He stood up slowly, without speaking, and slowly approached them.

Seeing Xu Qing approaching, the old man smiled, turned around and continued walking. The others also took a deep look at Xu Qing and followed.

In this way, Xu Qing followed the group of scavengers and watched them search for valuables in the city.

During this period, he learned the nickname of the ferocious big man, and others called him a ox.

This person also swept over Xu Qing many times, and there was a gloomy glow in his eyes.

But obviously restrained, it seems that he is not in a hurry, waiting for the opportunity of the old man who stopped him from shooting.

And he seems to be very sure that such an opportunity will definitely come on the road in the future.

Xu Qing pondered for a while, thinking of the greed of the big man, so with his familiarity with the city, he gave these scavengers some help.

Xu Qing's low profile allows these scavengers to find valuables faster and find more items.

And Canniu is obviously greedy, even if he can't hold it on his body and exceeds his own weight, he still wants to take more.

As a result, he, who was already injured, searched more than others, and the items on his back were heavier.

It was nothing at first, but as time went by, Dahan's physical strength was obviously consumed a lot, and his exhaustion was far more than everyone else.

As for the area of the City Lord's Mansion, Xu Qing considered that the old man known as the Thunder Team would be helpful to him, so he did not lead them away.

Until night was about to fall, the group finally left the city and camped in the former slum outside the city.

They were very skilled, pitching six tents.

Except for the two people who were holding the knife and one tent, everyone else was alone. They even lit incense outside the tent. Some people took out some powder and sprinkled it around.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker, all kinds of roars in the city began to echo, and these scavengers all walked into the tents.

Only Team Lei glanced at Xu Qing who was alone, took out a sleeping bag from the side, and threw it over.

"Burning incense can disperse alien beasts, and powder can avoid weirdness. With your contribution today, with me here, Canniu will not dare to hit you. Pay attention. It's fairly safe here."

After speaking, the old man ignored it and walked into the tent.

Xu Qing didn't say anything, just looked deeply at the old man's tent, picked up the sleeping bag, opened it, and got in.

But it didn't seal it, but left a gap in the direction of the scavenger's tent.

In the middle of the night, the roars and shrill sounds of the outside world became more and more intense, and the strange cries also swirled, and the terrifying atmosphere seemed to be everywhere in the outside world.

It seems that no one wants to leave the shelter at this time.

Only Xu Qing...

He opened his eyes in the sleeping bag, motionless, and waited silently.

Until time passed, when people were most asleep in the middle of the night, Xu Qing slowly crawled out of the sleeping bag.

He moves carefully, making as little noise as possible.

The roar and grief in the city echoed in his ears, but they didn't take away the slightest bit of his mind.

After carefully crawling out, Xu Qing walked silently to the tent where the big Han Canniu was.

He does not allow hidden dangers around him that threaten his own life. Even if it is only a hidden danger, he will find a way to solve it immediately.

This is the rule Xu Qing learned from the lessons of blood after surviving in the slum. That's why he agreed to follow.

Even in the daytime, he reminded everyone to make them more harvested, but he saw the greed of Canniu, and wanted to make him more tired when he was injured, so he lost his vigilance.

And he deliberately lowered his posture in order to paralyze the other party and make him slack off guard.

All of this is for the sake of the current shot. At this moment, Xu Qing looked calm, and approached the tent gently, not acting rashly, but squatting there first and listening carefully for a while.

The purring sounded into the ears was even, continuous and stable, not like a fake. After confirming this, Xu Qing narrowed his eyes, slowly pulled out his iron stick, gently opened the buttons of the tent, and slowly drilled went in.

It was dark inside the tent, Xu Qing could vaguely see the Canniu lying there, sleeping soundly. It was obviously due to the load during the day and the injury, which made him extremely exhausted.

And the mentality of a strong man made Canniu never imagine that a boy with a cooperating attitude during the day would take an adventure in the middle of the night when other scavengers were present.

So at this moment, he didn't know that there was an uninvited guest in his tent.

Xu Qing looked at the sleeping remnant cow, her cold eyes were as calm as the deep sea, and she approached gently until standing next to him, Xu Qing did not hesitate at all, the dagger in his right hand flashed coldly, and he was instantly at a loss. On the neck of the remnant cow, he was severely cut.

The force was so great that the corpse was almost separated.

Blood spurted instantly.

The severe pain caused Canniu's eyes to suddenly open, and he saw Xu Qing's expressionless face, with an expression of disbelief and horror. mouth so that it cannot make the slightest sound.

The struggle became more and more intense at this moment, Canniu's eyes widened, and his whole body twitched wildly.

But Xu Qing's hands were like iron pliers, pressing hard, and his right foot even lifted up, stepping directly on the belly of Canniu, turning itself into a bow shape, with the help of stable strength, Canniu struggled. Not helpful.

As the blood continued to pour out, Canniu was like a fish that had left the water, and the meaning of despair slowly emerged in his eyes, and he even showed pleading.

But what he saw was still Xu Qing's calm face. As for the sound of his body struggling, it was also covered up by the roars and screams of the outside world, and could not be heard at all.

Time passed slowly, until after ten breaths, Canniu's struggle gradually weakened, and finally trembled, the whole person relaxed, motionless, only the eyes were open, the fear before death remained, and he died of anger. .

Xu Qing did not raise his hand immediately, but waited for a while to confirm that the other party was really dead, then let go of his hand, wiped the blood on it, and opened his leather bag.

He carefully took out the snake head wrapped in sackcloth from the inside, and carefully used the snake head's fangs to pierce Canniu's skin.

The next moment, with the spread of toxins, the corpse of Canniu burst into green bubbles and slowly melted.

After a stick of incense, the body completely turned into a pool of blood, seeping into the soil on the ground.

Xu Qing watched all this silently, began to organize the scene, and then disposed of Canniu's relics, making the illusion that the other party was missing, and then got out of the tent.

The cold wind blew on his face, taking away some of the **** smell that had stained on him. Xu Qing looked up at the night, took a deep breath of the cold air, and slowly returned to his sleeping bag.

The moment he lay in the sleeping bag, his heart finally calmed down, and the sense of security brought by the hidden danger being removed made him close his eyes and fall asleep quickly, but the iron sign in his hand was always tightly gripped, never Loosen the slightest.

I was speechless all night.

In the early morning of the next day, the morning sun shone down and reflected on the earth. Xu Qing opened his eyes and quietly climbed out of the sleeping bag, his eyes swept casually towards the tent where Canniu was.

The next moment, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Canniu's tent actually disappeared.

Xu Qing's heart sank and he became more vigilant.

Soon other scavengers also walked out of the tent one after another in the early morning. They were surprised when they discovered this at the first time, and some people searched around to no avail.

But because the remnant cow disappeared completely, even the tent was gone, so some people judged that the other party should be greedy for the things in the city and left in the middle of the night~IndoMTL.com~ or other reasons, and left without saying goodbye.

In short, in this restricted area, there are too many reasons for a person to disappear.

This was a temporary team, and Canniu was alone, so soon these scavengers stopped paying attention to this matter, and some people looked at Xu Qing, but seemed to think that this matter could not be related to Xu Qing, In addition, there is no obligation to investigate, so the speculation is retracted.

Only the old man known as Thunder Team took back Xu Qing's sleeping bag, gave him a meaningful look, and said lightly.

"Now, are you still coming with me?"

This sentence has far-reaching meaning, and Xu Qing is silent.

The old man didn't say anything else, calling everyone to hurry under the early sun.

Xu Qing stood there for a while, then instinctively turned to look at the ruined city. Finally, he turned his head and looked at the old man's back. After thinking about it, he followed, walking, and his steps gradually became firmer.

Six scavengers, one child, their figures were pulled for a long time under the sun...

In the distance, there was a wind blowing, which scattered their sighs and emotions when they moved forward.

"This is the catastrophe of the gods, and the whole city is destroyed."

"There is one more restricted area in this world..."

"This is nothing, you've heard it, seven or eight years ago, there was a big city in the northern area. When the gods opened their eyes, the area and the city disappeared strangely, as if it never existed. "

The voice of the dialogue is getting weaker and weaker. Under the early sun, in the figure of the long journey, the young man is silent, listening silently, and walking silently.

The further you go, the farther you go.
