Outside of Time - Chapter 73

[Chapter 69 Fair and Reasonable]

Time flies, and it’s halfway through October.

It was supposed to be the season of cold dew, but because of Qixuetong’s location near the sea, it was still hot during the day.

Only at night does the wind turn cold, and so does the sea. It seems that the gloomy buried under the sea is filled with the moonlight, showing through the sea, covering the heaven and earth, and infiltrating the bodies of all those who practice at night, allowing them to experience the malice in winter in advance. .

At this moment, the night wind was blowing, and the moonlight fell on the port, spreading out on every inch of the bluestone road. It also fell on Xu Qing, who was walking to the berth with alertness after finishing the day’s work.

Xu Qing stepped on the moonlight, his figure was tall and straight, his gray robe swayed as he moved forward, and he seemed to be dancing with his long hair. From a distance, it looked like a picture of a lonely shadow under the moon.

Only the cold in the wind at night made Xu Qing instinctively cold.

It is not the body that is cold, but the memory left in the slum.

Just like the traces on the picture scroll smoked by fireworks, even if the entire picture scroll is finished, even if it is covered up and mounted with ink so that outsiders cannot see it, the picture scroll itself knows that the traces still exist.

In the cold wind, Xu Qing let out a breath and stepped faster.

It has been half a month since the last meeting with Zhou Qingpeng and others.

In the past two weeks, Xu Qing has been on duty in the arresting department as usual. Zhou Qingpeng said that he did not wait for the promotion, nor did he care.

Because for Xu Qing, cultivation is the focus of his current stage.

His sea of transformation has reached the peak of the seventh floor, and it is not far from the breakthrough.

The same is true of the Sea Mountain Art, which is about to reach the eighth floor.

This made Xu Qing look forward to it.

He felt that according to his current combat power, after both the Huajing Jing and Haishan Jue had broken through to the eighth floor, facing him without Qixuetong, he would most likely be able to achieve instant kill without damage.

Even when he encountered the ancestor of the King Kong Sect again, Xu Qing felt that even though he was still unable to defeat the opponent after the eighth floor, if he cooperated with the shadow and went all out in the sneak attack, there was a certain chance to fight him a few times.

“almost……”

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes. The enemy he was most eager to kill right now was the mermaid boy besides the ancestor of the King Kong Sect.

The former, he felt that it would not take too long, he could have the power to kill, the latter he was already looking for opportunities.

It’s just a little regretful. In the past two weeks, he has been cautiously sneaking with the mermaid boy almost every day, looking for an opportunity to kill, but there are always guardians around the opponent, and it is difficult to start.

Occasionally, the other party went out alone as the captain said, but he used a treasure that covered his breath and figure, so that he had no trace of himself.

It was difficult for Xu Qing to search, but he was still patient. After analyzing it, he realized that he had to find a way to leave some marks on the other party.

“If you encounter such an opponent in the future, you must leave a mark in advance.”

Xu Qing murmured, just as he learned how to deal with corpses, he kept this matter in his mind and moved on.

Soon, he arrived at the berth at Port 79.

On the way, Xu Qing did not encounter any malicious eyes, and no one came to disturb him at night.

Although it has not been a long time since he came to Qixuetong, Xu Qing has gradually gained some prestige. Such prestige has greatly reduced the number of people who attacked him, and most of them are extremely cautious.

At this moment, as Xu Qing released the magic boat, a huge boat appeared out of thin air in an instant. When it fell to the sea, there was a roar of slapping the sea water, and waves were scattered.

Looking around, the hull of more than 20 feet long and more than 30 feet wide is amazing.

Under the moonlight, the dark ship board radiated black light, and the cold light from the dense scales on the outside seemed to blend together. With the huge and hideous crocodile head on the bow, the magic boat seemed to be really turned into a statue. Giant crocodile.

Especially in the wide open mouth of the crocodile head, the countless sharp teeth, and the gleam in its eyes, add a bit of shock.

And look carefully,

The scales on the outside of the boat can be seen, which are higher than before, and even on the inner side, which is invisible to outsiders, there are scales.

There is also a special keel that runs through the entire hull, forming a stronger support than ever before.

There is still wind around, making this beast-like ark exude a deterrent aura, especially the cabin, which is too big now, and the room inside is the same, there is a place to rest, there is practice In the place, Xu Qing even built an exclusive herbal room.

In addition, a cyan streamer can be seen from time to time in the hull, wandering like a living creature, making the dharma boat stronger and stronger wherever it passes.

The most important thing is that there is a huge groove on the board of the ship. Although there is nothing in it, the formation is dense and obviously left in advance.

These are the sixth-level arks that Xu Qing created with intermediate materials after spending hundreds of spirit stones!

And the remaining grooves cost him ten additional spirit stones.

Because he is optimistic about the same material, it is a small skull of a giant whale. Once it is put in, it can make his ark solid, break through from level six to the peak of level seven.

It’s just that the skull of this giant whale is too expensive, and it belongs to one of the second-highest materials of the ark.

The price is naturally astonishing, requiring a full two hundred spirit stones.

This price is already extremely exaggerated. Xu Qing has seen it many times in the past few days, secretly gritted his teeth and decided to save money to buy it.

“After I break through to the eighth level in my cultivation, and after I buy the skull of a giant whale and make the ark reach level seven… I’ll go out to sea!”

Xu Qing murmured, after making a decision, he stepped on the dharma boat, entered the practice place, sat cross-legged on the futon, and closed his eyes to practice.

The sea breeze blew all night, and in the early morning, he seemed tired, and gradually dissipated powerlessly. As the sun fell, Xu Qing opened his eyes and started a new day.

Without the search for Yeji, most of the work of the arresting division is very idle, but occasionally the inspection division will come to apply for assistance for things that cannot be handled.

For example, today, Xu Qing just came to the arresting department, and after ordering Mao in the courtyard of the sixth team of Xuanbu, he received an application for assistance from the inspection department.

Not many people were dispatched, including the captain, there were a total of six people.

After walking out of the arresting department, Xu Qing and the other team members also knew that the goal of assisting the patrol this time was the dispatching department under the introduction of the captain.

The dispatching department and the water diversion department are the most important parts of the entire port area. The former is responsible for the dispatching of boats and ships, while the latter is the arm of dispatching, responsible for introducing the boats from the outside world into the harbor.

Therefore, in every port, there are branches, and today they are going to Port 96.

The water diversion and dispatching of these ninety-six ports have recently had a fierce conflict. Now, more than 100 people from the water diversion department are gathering at the dispatching department. Apply for the assistance of an arresting officer.

After hearing the captain’s mission introduction, some of the teammates spoke sarcastically.

“It seems that the main point of the contradiction is the extra reward that should have been given to the water diversion department of Port 96 this month. The dispatch of Port 96 was only given to 10% of the previous one. No one would agree to this change.”

“Disciples in the two departments of dispatch and water diversion, in addition to their daily salaries, because water diversion is often done to help dispatch, and dispatch has a lot of extra work, so the dispatch of each port must give extra rewards to water diversion on time.”

Xu Qing heard this and had a general understanding of what happened this time.

“This matter is the dispatch of Port Ninety-six. The person in charge was replaced some time ago, that is the core disciple Zhao Zhongheng.”

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and said nothing.

“As soon as this core took office, he strongly changed the rules. It is said that the reward for water diversion every month has changed from the original fifty-five to ninety-one, so the disciples of the Water Division are outraged.”

Xu Qing listened to the discussion, and thoughtfully, the group arrived at the dispatching department in Port 96. From a distance, the dispatching department was shaped like a sail on the ground, with buildings of various sizes. Lin Li, there are also many Dharma boats parked on the side.

In front of the gate of the Dispatching Division, at this moment, hundreds of people were diverting the water to block the gate, confronting the disciples of the Dispatching Division in the door.

There are also disciples of the Inspection Division who are mediating, but neither side will give in, so mediation is extremely difficult.

With a little spark, in this tense atmosphere, it is very likely that the two sides will directly fight.

Therefore, after seeing the arresting department coming, the disciples of the inspection department were relieved, and the onlookers outside also spread out, so that the arresting department came closer.

The captain who was eating the apple did not go to see the two parties who were arguing with each other and the inspector who labored to adjust. Instead, he found a place to sit and watch the excitement in a corner not far away.

The task of the arresting department is to calm down after the two sides have actually killed. The killing has not been started yet, so you can ignore it.

The same is true for the other team members. Xu Qing sat down with everyone, and after scanning both sides, he did not see Zhao Zhongheng, but saw an acquaintance.

This person is standing at the front of the water diversion team, a little fat man.

It was Huang Yan who gave him the congealing leaves in the pharmacy that day.

“The bastards of the dispatching department, you are doing this to cut off the survival of my disciples in the port of ninety-six. Without that reward, our cultivation and boat refining will slow down. In the main city of crisis at this moment, how can we Live? You are trying to kill us, since death is on the left and right, then we will kill you first!”

Huang Yan seemed to be the representative of the water diversion from the Ninety-six Port. Although he was wearing a gray robe, he held his head high and didn’t seem to be in a hurry. His expression was even more brutal, his voice was sharp, and he shouted with a blushing face and a thick neck.

In front of him, the cultivator standing at the gate of the Dispatching Department was a middle-aged man, wearing a gray Taoist robe as well. He was not a dispatcher from Ninety-Six Harbor, but Zhao Zhongheng’s squire.

This matter was suggested by Zhao Zhongheng. If there is a problem at this moment, the identity of the other party will not be resolved in person, so he arranged for a squire to come over to deal with it.

At this moment, the middle-aged cultivator has a cold light in his eyes, and he is even more displeased. He has followed Zhao Zhongheng for a long time. Although he is a squire, most of the disciples he encounters under the mountain are very respectful to him, and he has seen many other core disciples. , So he had already forgotten his identity, and he didn’t care about these gray-robed disciples in his heart.

In particular, he knew that it was impossible for his master to change the rules, so he showed a strong intention at this moment.

“With a stick of incense, if you don’t want to die, get out now!”

As soon as his words came out, the disciples of the Water Diversion Division were filled with murderous intent, and the Dispatching Division’s eyes flashed coldly when they saw this.

For the various divisions in the main city of Seven Blood Eyes, these disciples who came out of the wolf’s den and did not rely on others to stand firm, killing…they were no strangers.

“Let’s get out? I’m going to get out of your grandfather!” Huang Yan’s eyes widened and he slammed into it. He was very fast and his body was heavy. At this moment, he moved his hand with a roar.

In the next moment, the disciples who had been diverting water and dispatching in a tense atmosphere immediately started fighting at this gate.

The roar reverberated, and the fluctuations of the spells spread to all directions. The chaos of hundreds of people was staged directly in front of Xu Qing’s eyes.

The disciples of the Inspectorate Division in charge of mediation retreated one after another, while Xu Qing and the others were still sitting there.

Xu Qing glanced at the captain beside him. The captain was eating an apple and looked very interested in the melee ahead, and sometimes cheered a few times.

“There are too many of them, and the melee is a bit dangerous. We will wait for them to kill almost, and then go to calm down. Besides, the two departments are fighting… Zongmen also do not want to see it, and it is likely that they will come forward to stop it.”

After the captain applauded, he whispered to the team members next to him.

At this moment, the two sides in the melee have already suffered casualties, and the roar and roar are even more intense. Xu Qing sees Huang Yan in the crowd, and he is red-eyed and frantically shot, with a seven-layer Qi condensing cultivation base, which makes his Explosion, with strong lethality.

At this moment, Xu Qing saw that the middle-aged man who had confronted Huang Yan in the crowd of the dispatching department was quickly backing away, looking at Huang Yan with a sinister look, he waved his hand violently while Huang Yan did not turn his back. , suddenly a willow leaf flying knife flew out from its sleeve.

This knife is made of special material, somewhat transparent, very fast, with a faint blue glow on it, as if it was poisoned, and flew straight towards Huang Yan’s neck.

Huang Yan was in the midst of a chaotic battle, and he didn’t realize it for a while. Seeing that he was about to be approached by this flight, Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and flicked his right hand. Suddenly a drop of water formed out of thin air, flew out at an astonishing speed, and landed directly on the ground. on the willow leaf knife.

The water droplets were extremely powerful, and with a bang, the flying knife shifted its direction and passed in front of Huangyan.

Huang Yan’s complexion changed, first he looked at Xu Qing, nodded, then his eyes fell on the middle-aged monk with a grim expression, and he rushed straight away with a low roar.

“Damn it!” The middle-aged cultivator immediately retreated, but it was still too late. He was directly caught up by Huang Yan with a few jumps and hit him hard.

The sound of clicking was drowned out by the surrounding melee, only to see that the middle-aged cultivator had a distorted expression and quickly counterattacked.

The fighting continued, with more casualties.

At this moment, the captain on the side glanced at Xu Qing with a half smile.

Xu Qing didn’t speak, and withdrew his gaze towards Huang Yan. The previous shot was because Huang Yan generously gave him the Spiritual Conditioning Leaf that day.

And soon, as the battle between the two departments became more and more tragic, a low shout came from a distance like a thunder, and a roar came.

“Stop it all!”

Between the words, a figure stepped into the air from a distance, and a powerful and terrifying aura fell from the sky at this moment, suppressing all directions, causing all the disciples on the ground to be shocked and stop their hands.

“It’s time to work.” The captain said in a low voice, stood up, and acted like a law enforcement officer with a solemn expression. Xu Qing and the other team members also got up.

The moment they got up, the figure of the sky approached rapidly and landed in mid-air, turning into a young man wearing a dark purple robe.

The young man’s appearance was unremarkable, and his eyes did not fluctuate too much, but the momentum on his body was amazing. At this moment, he was standing in the air and looked coldly at the two disciples who stopped on the ground.
