Outside of Time

Chapter 57: Give a coin

Views:

What happened that night made Xu Qing very annoyed. He didn't want to kill on the first day of Seven Blood Boys, but the other party forced the blame.

If it wasn't for Xu Qingxiu's strength and fighting strength, he would have been replaced by other people, and his life and death would have been unpredictable in the blame that night.

So at this moment, his shot was extremely fast, and as his voice came out, the screaming woman stopped her screaming, trembling all over, but she knew the advantage of being a woman.

I also understand that for men, a frightened woman will be more or less pitiful, so she exaggerates her panic.

Xu Qing was expressionless, while chewing the last candied fruit in his mouth, he walked towards the other party, and at the same time did not forget to be vigilant about whether the other party had any accomplices around him.

Even a few of them who were cultivated wanted to intervene when they saw the miserable condition of the woman, but they quickly dismissed their thoughts after noticing Xu Qing's good aura.

Seeing Xu Qing approaching, the foot plate was penetrated, and the woman who was in severe pain trembled on purpose, her forehead was dripping with sweat, and she recognized Xu Qing's voice.

In fact, ever since she framed Xu Qing that day and noticed the look in his eyes and the ruthlessness of his shot, she was very vigilant, and she knew very well that she had provoked a terrifying existence.

Therefore, she has been hiding for the past few days and has not gone out. Today, she also feels that the limelight should pass. There is a high probability that the existence of terror is crossing the river, and she should not dare to make trouble during the day.

That's why she came out, but she never thought that she would meet each other anyway.

It's enough to meet her, she is confident that she can escape. After all, she is a civilian, and there is a patrol department in charge of public security, so she is safe under the rules.

But at this moment, looking at the figure who came to squat down beside her, she suddenly had an intuition, fearing that she would die here before the inspector arrived.

So she fully expressed the feeling of pity as a woman in the trembling of her body and the fear in her eyes, trying to delay time.

"Stop pretending." Xu Qing squatted in front of the woman and pulled the bamboo stick out of the other's feet.

The severe pain and the breaking of her mind by the other party made the fear in the woman's eyes become real, and she also noticed that the other party was very close to her at the moment. The poisonous powder spilled out.

At this moment, there was a whistling sound from the street in the distance, and a team of patrolling cultivators who were patrolling here seemed to have noticed what was happening here and were rushing over.

The woman's eyes suddenly showed hope.

But soon, as Xu Qing took out the badge of the arresting division from his body, the monks of the inspection division turned and left without turning their heads. The hope in the woman's eyes was replaced by despair, and she suddenly whispered while trembling.

"What happened last time was my fault, I'm willing to make up for it, I... I know a clue to a wanted criminal!"

She didn't bargain with Xu Qing. She walked in the dark all the year round, and she knew very well that she was not qualified to bargain when faced with people who were stronger than herself and could crush her. Obedience was the only way to survive.

So she quickly gave clues without waiting for Xu Qing to speak.

"The wanted criminal is Qing Yunzi, an abandoned disciple of Lingyun Sect. He has been living in Banquan Road, the inn where we met last time."

"Wanted criminal?" Xu Qing took out the jade slip given by the captain, checked and found the name of Qing Yunzi, glanced at it, and the reward appeared to be twenty spirit stones.

"Also, I heard what your arrest department is investigating recently. I also know a Yejiu's stronghold." Under this huge crisis, the woman also fought everything to save her life, and hurriedly continued to speak and informed The location of the stronghold.

After Xu Qing heard this, she gave the woman a meaningful look, thinking of the captain's informant, so she took out a spirit coin and handed it to her.

"There will be such clues in the future, just wait for me here."

The woman was stunned and hesitated for a while. She knew the meaning of this sentence very well. She quickly gritted her teeth, nodded her head, and took the spirit coins. Under Xu Qing's gaze, she limped away quickly.

Until the figure of the woman disappeared from the crowd, Xu Qing stood up. He did not verify the authenticity of the Yejiu stronghold that the other party said.

So after another inspection in the city, at sunset, Xu Qing went to the inn where he lived that day.

During the day, the inn is also open, but few people enter.

Xu Qing glanced at it from a distance, remembering the strangeness of the old man in the inn, he did not act rashly, but returned to the arresting department, reported the clues to the stronghold, and left at the lowest value.

As for whether the woman would agree on the surface and disappear afterwards, Xu Qing didn't care, because she took the spirit coin, which was... poisonous.

After three days, detoxification is required.

On the way, I met a few members of the sixth team. After seeing Xu Qing, they all swept away indifferently and did not speak to each other. Only a middle-aged member invited Xu Qing to drink with a smile.

The Seven Blood Boys, who were not allowed to kill each other in the open, but plundered each other in the dark, such an invitation was a bit abrupt, making Xu Qing vigilant and calmly rejecting it.

Today is a special day, he doesn't want to kill, he wants to be alone.

In addition, he also plans to go to the pharmacy.

He wants to buy some medicinal herbs for refining Baidan, and try to make it and sell it for money. At the same time, there are few poisons and black dans left, which need to be replenished, and he has more ideas about poisons to verify.

According to the map sketched in his mind, Xu Qing soon found a pharmacy.

This pharmacy is very large, and there are many people coming and going, all dressed in gray Taoist robes.

Items such as medicinal pills are needed by all peak disciples.

Xu Qing's walk in, attracted some people's attention because of his delicate appearance, but most of them were swept away, and his expression would not be obvious on his face.

Xu Qing looked calm, swept through the crowd in the store, and walked to the counter silently.

At the counter, in addition to an old man like a shopkeeper, there is also a little fat man.

This little fat man has an ordinary appearance. His gray Taoist robe is very tight on his body. It looks like a circle. There are freckles on his white and fat face. He looks sixteen or seventeen years old, and he is also a customer.

He was breathing heavily at the moment, putting the herbs piled on the counter into the huge pocket he was carrying.

There is no pattern to the movements, and outsiders may not be able to see anything, but Xu Qing can recognize it at a glance, and the other party does not understand herbal medicine.

There were some in it that couldn't be put together, and they were stuffed into his pockets indiscriminately.

"The shopkeeper, this time the herbs are a little short, so that's all?" As Xu Qing approached, he heard the dissatisfied voice of the little fat man.

"You come every day, and you are all sold out. Tomorrow, the goods from the owner will arrive tomorrow." The shopkeeper and the little fat man were obviously familiar with each other. After taking out all the herbs purchased by the other party, he looked at Xu Qing who was approaching.

"This junior brother, what kind of medicine do you want?"

"I need 10-year-old sphenoid flower, 30 golden-winged leaves, 10 treated delicate branches, 7-leaf clover of any year, and 100 golden button grass." Xu Qing said calmly.

"There are also rhinoceros with roots and whiskers, as well as congealing leaves, ten plants each on the back of white roots."

"I don't know if there are rot cloud mud and black rose thorns?" After thinking, Xu Qing added a few more snake venoms and poisonous weeds, and looked at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Xu Qing carefully. The people he met here on weekdays were all disciples who bought pills. Occasionally, he encountered some people who bought herbal medicines, and most of them were from the second peak. Fat people don't know anything like that.

And the young man in front of him spoke so clearly and eloquently. He was not a second peak cultivator, which was rare.

Especially in the other party's herbs, most of them are needed by Bai Dan, which made the shopkeeper thoughtful, after giving Xu Qing a deep look, he shook his head.

"There are others, there are three hundred and eighty spirit coins in total, but only the condensed spirit leaves, the last one hundred copies were bought by him, you can come over tomorrow to have the goods." The shopkeeper pointed at the little fat man who was packing.

Xu Qing nodded. Although the congealing leaf is important, it is not bad for this day. As for the price of the herbal medicine, the price is reasonable. If it is successful, about a hundred white pills and some poisonous powder can be made.

He was about to buy, but at this moment, the little fat man on the side raised his head, looked at Xu Qing, and asked curiously.

"Ningling Ye? You want this thing too, what's the use of this thing? I asked the shopkeeper several times, but he didn't tell me."

"You have to ask a lot of questions every time, and I will tell you every one of them, whether you are doing other people's business..." The shopkeeper sighed helplessly.

Xu Qing glanced at the little fat man and thought that he was so eager for knowledge, so he spoke softly.

"There are two main functions of the congealing leaves. One is to catalyze other herbs to mutate them in the direction you want, and the other is to nourish the skin very well."

Hearing this, the little fat man suddenly realized, very boldly took out a handful of condensing leaves, which looked like seven or eight plants, and placed them in front of Xu Qing generously.

"Thank you, brother, these are for you." After the little fat man finished speaking, he picked up the bag and walked outside happily. It seemed to him that giving some herbs to others was just a trivial matter.

Xu Qing was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and was about to refuse, but the little fat man walked out of the door in a hurry, and took out the jade slip, as if he was transmitting sound.

The shopkeeper on the side opened his mouth with a smile.

"This little fat man's name is Huang Yan, he is a disciple of the Seventh Peak, and he is also an infatuation. I don't know which female disciple is fascinated by him. He came to me to buy herbs for many years, and if he buys it like this, all the money he spends these years will be all Enough to be my boss, but this kid is not simple, so high-profile, he can still live to this day."

Xu Qing took a deep look at the direction where the little fat man was going, and left without saying a word.

All the way back to the berth, after checking as usual, Xu Qing walked into the ark and immediately turned on the protection. As the protection appeared, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared with the outside world, the dharma boat can give Xu Qing a sense of security. At this moment, he entered the cabin and sat down, took out the herbs he bought, and put them away in different categories.

Although he hadn't collected the herbs needed for Bai Dan before, Xu Qing's preparation of the elixir had never been relaxed, so now that the herbs were comprehensive, he thought for a while and began to refine them.

Time passed slowly, and midnight came.
