As Li Zimei's soft voice echoed, Xu Xiaohui in the private room opened her eyes involuntarily and looked at Xu Qing.
No wonder she couldn't recognize it, it was Xu Qing in her memory, covered in dirt and dirty.
But now, the person standing at the door of the private room has a slender figure as tall and straight as a loose, long black hair casually shawl, revealing an unspeakable elegance, especially the face that is enough to make people addicted.
Absolutely beautiful.
With a carved face, distinct facial features, and a pair of slender ice eyes under a pair of sword brows, it is dark and deep.
"It's me." Xu Qing nodded.
Xu Xiaohui's pretty face blushed, she picked up the wine glass and drank it to cover up her inner fluctuations.
Zhou Qingpeng on the side laughed and stepped forward to greet him.
"Junior Brother Xu Qing, come take a seat."
Looking at them, Xu Qing politely clasped his fists and sat aside, his eyes swept over the three of them. Compared with the indifference and cruelty contained in the sect, these three disciples who entered the same batch as him clearly still have some kindness left. .
But obviously the environment of the sect has also changed for them. For example, Zhou Qingpeng looks like a spring breeze, but the tiredness hidden in his expression is still seen by Xu Qing.
Especially on him, there are more vicissitudes, this is the growth obtained after going through some things.
As for Xu Xiaohui, Xu Qing couldn't describe her changes. He just felt that the other party seemed to be more and more like the woman in the feather tent in the scavenger camp.
Only Li Zimei has not changed much, but in the inferiority and restraint, her eyes have more vigilance and caution. It seems to her that anyone who appears around makes her alert.
Time passed slowly, with everyone's simple communication, although Xu Qing was mostly silent, the atmosphere in the room was still alive with each other's emotions. After all, the time for them to enter the sect was still too short.
It's just that most of the time Zhou Qingpeng and Xu Xiaohui were laughing, and Li Zimei, like Xu Qing, also chose to remain silent.
Soon, Zhou Qingpeng, who drank a few more glasses, opened his mouth with emotion.
"Actually, before I entered the sect, I knew some things about the sect, but when I actually came in, I realized that it was different from hearing about it and experiencing it in person. In Seven Blood Boys... It's too difficult to live a better life. If you are not careful, you will die if you die."
"You guys should feel the same way... Junior Brother Xu Qing, I still don't know which department you went to? I went to the Coast Defence Department. Xiaohui is also very capable. She exchanged the ark in a short period of time and was assigned to the dispatching department. "
Xu Xiaohui, who was on the side, had a complicated smile when she heard the words, and nodded.
"I'm in the arresting department." Xu Qing was a little uncomfortable with the atmosphere here, which made him feel that it was contrary to the indifference and cruelty of everyone outside, so he spoke softly.
"The arresting department?" Xu Xiaohui's eyes lit up again.
Li Zimei on the side showed some envy in her eyes. Compared with Xu Xiaohui, although she is no longer dressed as a dirty scavenger, she is still very ordinary, so she bows her head more often.
For her, three of the four people in the same period had the Dharma boat, and only she was ordinary, which made her sit here and was under a lot of pressure.
"Junior Brother Xu Qing, you actually went to the arresting department. The arresting department did a big job a few days ago. Thousands of Yejiu's heads were hung on the city wall. Everyone is discussing these days. By the way, your With the strength of blood and blood in your entry test, have you also participated in the operation?"
Hearing this, Zhou Qingpeng's expression changed slightly. He had seen Xu Qing once before and felt the psionic energy fluctuations in Xu Qing's body. He also realized that it seemed to be stronger, so he tried again.
"However, this kind of large-scale task is actually very risky. Junior Brother Xu Qing, although you have a good body training, but after all, the technique is the sharpest. As newcomers, we have just entered the sect, and trying to survive and practice is the key point. In the future, some will be An opportunity for us to express ourselves.”
Xu Qing glanced at Zhou Qingpeng and saw the other party's temptation. In fact, he felt that the three people in the same period were all very good in temperament and didn't have too many bad thoughts. This is why he was willing to come here in addition to ghosts. another reason.
So he nodded and said nothing.
"The arresting division of the seventh peak is the same as our coastal defense division. There are a lot of people inside. By the way, Junior Brother Xu Qing, I heard that your arresting division has made an extraordinary figure in this operation."
"It seems that there is a Meng person in the Xuanbu of your murder department. I don't know what his name is, but I heard that this person actually killed the enemy chief of the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation. He is the only non-captain rank in this operation. Killing the enemy chiefs, if you want to come to Huahaijing, you can only do it when you reach the peak, such a credit, it is said that you will be promoted."
Zhou Qingpeng sighed with emotion, his eyes full of admiration, this sentence is no longer a temptation, but a real envy.
In his understanding, this matter could not be related to Xu Qing. Although Xu Qing is very strong in body refining, and his blood and energy can be transformed into shadows, Zhou Qingpeng has realized that after cultivating the sea-changing scriptures, the techniques of the sea-changing scriptures are sharp. Beheading and refining the body is easy, especially in the place where there are many strong people.
Even though he had noticed that Xu Qing's sea-transforming psionic energy fluctuated very strongly at the drugstore, he still did not associate himself with the fact that he could stand out from the powerful arresting divisions and kill the enemy chief of the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation.
"I also heard about this. There have been a lot of rumors in the past few days. It seems to be from Team Six of the Xuanbu."
In the past few days, it is true that the disciples of the various departments of the Seventh Peak are talking about the action of the arresting department to collect the net night dove, especially the outstanding people in this operation, most of them have discussed.
Xu Qing was a little surprised. In the past few days, he has focused on finding the opportunity to kill the killer fish boy, and he has not paid attention to these matters. At this moment, it is the first time that he has heard about the rumors from the outside world, and the first time he has heard that he is about to be promoted.
"It's none of our business, for us... survival is the key."
Zhou Qingpeng sighed and touched his leg, where there was a scar that had not fully healed. Then he looked up and saw that Xu Qing had been silent and spoke earnestly.
"Junior Brother Xu Qing, you can't be too withdrawn all the time. You need to change your personality, learn to be flexible, and give gifts to your boss, so that you can get shelter and survive better. "
Xu Qing nodded when he heard the words, he was not good at words and didn't know what to say, so most of the time he was listening to this meal, and Zhou Qingpeng also slowly recovered the look of not entering the front of the sect, sometimes in laughter Raising a glass and changing the atmosphere.
During the period, Zhou Qingpeng obviously drank too much and showed off his achievements.
For example, in the Department of Coastal Defense, he has a harmonious relationship with his current boss, for example, how many friends he has met in the Department of Coastal Defense, what kind of convenience he has obtained, and he even wants to improve Xu Xiaohui's network of contacts.
Of course, he didn't forget to persuade Xu Qing to change his gender many times. For Li Zimei, he also asked the Coast Defence Department if he needed a handyman, and wanted to recommend it.
"My boss promised me that as long as I get better in the assessment this time, I will introduce Senior Brother Ding Xiaohai to me. You know, Senior Brother Ding, he is the first person who is called our seventh peak to practice Qi." Zhou Qingpeng's heart Very proud, Xu Xiaohui on the side smiled and flattered, making the atmosphere in the private room more harmonious.
Xu Qing also smiled and raised a glass to congratulate.
He doesn't hate Zhou Qingpeng, everyone has their own way of living, Xu Xiaohui can get the Dharma boat so quickly, and he has his own abilities. As for Li Zimei, Xu Qing is not good at communication, but he thinks that he can recognize it at first sight. Oneself, the other party's observation power, must be extremely keen.
This meal took almost an hour.
After three rounds of drinking, it was already late at night outside, Zhou Qingpeng was more drunk, and the crowd ended. During this period, Zhou Qingpeng gave the ghost crab to Xu Qing, but before Xu Qing gave the money, Zhou Qingpeng waved his hand.
"My family is fine. This little thing is a gift between friends."
Xu Qing glanced at the bag containing the ghost crabs, and noticed the sincerity in Zhou Qingpeng's expression, he really planned to give it to himself, so he thought about it, did not force the money, and clenched his fists to thank him.
At this moment, the four of them walked out of the private room and arrived at the door of the restaurant. Zhou Qingpeng looked at Xu Qing and said with a smile.
"Junior Brother Xu Qing, I'm from the Department of Coast Defence, and I don't know which department you belong to. In the future, everyone will come and go. I'll go to you to reminisce in my spare time. During the same period, we must move around more, in this indifferent In our sect, we can trust each other the most, everyone should go forward together."
Xu Qing nodded when he heard the words.
"I'm from the Xuanbu."
"Xuanbu? It's the same department as that Mengren. He belongs to the sixth team. Brother Xu Qing, which team are you from?" Zhou Qingpeng was a little sober after hearing this, and Xu Xiaohui, who was beside him, was also surprised.
Xu Qing looked at Zhou Qingpeng and Xu Xiaohui, and Li Zimei, whose eyes were focused on her body, and hesitated.
"I'm also in Team Six..."
Zhou Qingpeng's eyes widened and he was stunned for a moment.
Xu Xiaohui's face showed disbelief, and she said something in surprise.
"Same department and team as that Meng Ren? It seems that Meng Ren is also surnamed Xu..."
Before she finished speaking, even if Xu Xiaohui's reaction was slow, she still thought of something and stayed for a moment.
"It seems that there are only twenty people in a team..." Zhou Qingpeng said in a low voice, completely sobered up at this moment.
Only when Li Zimei looked at Xu Qing, her expression was filled with shock. In fact, when she saw Xu Qing for the first time, she was keenly aware that there was a bloody smell on her body that had not dissipated.
The surrounding atmosphere was silent for a while, and after a while, Zhou Qingpeng laughed and clenched his fists towards Xu Qing to hide the horror in his heart.
As for Xu Xiaohui, she looked dazed and looked at Xu Qing, but she still didn't ask.
Soon everyone had their thoughts and dispersed in a hurry.
It's just that at Zhou Qingpeng's place, after leaving, his body trembled, with disbelief and anticipation in his eyes, he immediately took out his identity token and inquired about rumors, he wanted to know how many surnames Xu Zhi were in the sixth team of the Xuanbu people…
Xu Qing glanced at the figures who had dispersed at the same time, and turned around and was about to leave in the dark, but after walking a few steps, he seemed to have checked, and looked back at the restaurant.
There was a slender figure there, at the door of the restaurant, arrogantly discussing something with the man, and the man seemed impatient.
"You are also a disciple of the sect, don't embarrass me, the ones you just ate have already been collected, you have to pack it and tell me earlier."
This thin figure is Li Zimei, she went back and forth, listening to the man's words at this moment, her expression was a little bitter.
Xu Qing looked at this scene and walked over after being silent. As she approached, Li Zimei noticed it immediately. When she looked back and saw Xu Qing, her face turned red instantly, and then turned pale in the next instant. She stayed there, her self-esteem made her body faint. trembling.
"It shouldn't be closed so soon." Xu Qing walked closer, looked at the man, and spoke calmly.
The shop guy glanced at Xu Qing. He had seen many disciples in the restaurant, and he vaguely felt that the one in front of him was not easy to mess with, so he was respectful.
"It should be confiscated." He said, he went in quickly, and came out after a while, holding the packaged box in his hand and handing it to Li Zimei.
Li Zimei thanked her in a low voice and stood there very cautiously. The reason why she left and came back was because she didn't want to be seen. Her self-esteem made her bit her lip at the moment, and she would bleed from the bite.
"Fairy Wood"
"It's alright, meals shouldn't be wasted. When I was a child, I ate too much leftovers from other people's homes. Sometimes I had to go grab it together to get something to eat." Xu Qing said calmly.
Li Zimei raised her head, looked at Xu Qing, opened her mouth and said nothing, but under the moonlight, there was a wind blowing, and Li Zimei's hair was blown up, revealing her neck, which was usually hidden deep. of scars.
Looking at Li Zimei, Xu Qing did not know why, thinking of the little girl in the scavenger camp, and even more felt the strong and heterogeneous aura of Li Zimei.
The income of the disciples who did not exchange for Fazhou is not much, but that is to compare with the disciples of Fazhou.
Relative to the commoners, it is still very good, so Li Zimei's state should not be like this, unless it is to buy the ark and use all the income to exchange contribution points, and everything is extremely frugal on weekdays.
So after Xu Qing was silent, he took out a few white pills made by himself from the leather bag and put them in Li Zimei's hands.
"Come on, I want to see the day you exchange the ark."
After speaking, Xu Qing turned around and left.
Everyone has their own way of living, there is not much that they can help, and everything is their own choice.
Li Zimei stared blankly at Xu Qing's back, looked down at Bai Dan in her hand for a long time, and an indescribable warmth appeared in her heart. In this cold world, in this cruel sect, this kind of warmth was the first time for her emerge.
So she was silent for a while, and when she raised her head again, there was gratitude in her eyes.
She was grateful for the Bai Dan given by the other party, and even more grateful for the words of encouragement.
Her self-esteem makes her need no sympathy and rejects any pity, but she needs encouragement.
"Thank you, I will definitely exchange for the Dharma boat!"
