Chapter 46: White Ghost
time flies.
In a blink of an eye.
Ten p.m.
Xu Qing has finished his patrol. His patrol time today is from two o'clock in the afternoon to ten o'clock in the evening. There were no accidents during today's patrol.
at this time.
Xu Qing has returned to his residence.
rustle……
The cauliflower snake crawled out from the corner, its body two and a half meters long.
"Brother Xu."
It didn't take long.
Yu Chen came over. He and Yu Hu pushed a large cart and piled a hundred kilograms of meat on the cart, which cost a full one hundred taels of silver.
One pound of meat and one tael of silver.
To know.
In today's world, there is no food. There are many refugees and disaster victims outside the city who are about to starve to death. Naturally, the price of food such as meat is rising. A pound of meat costs one or two silver.
It can be said.
It's ten times more expensive.
"Um."
Xu Qing glanced at it and said, "Push forward."
"okay."
Yu Chen nodded, and he and Yu Hu quickly pushed the cart into the yard, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and said, "Brother Xu, this is the hundred kilograms of pork you asked for."
"You take inventory."
"good."
Xu Qing lifted the gray cloth covering it and took a look. It was indeed a hundred pounds of pork. Although it was not very fresh, there was nothing wrong with it.
"no problem."
Xu Qingdao.
"How much silver?"
Xu Qing asked.
"One hundred taels."
Yu Chen said.
"OK."
Xu Qing took out one hundred taels of silver notes from his arms and added ten taels of silver, "This is one hundred and eleven taels of silver. Ten taels of silver is considered a blessing."
"no, I'm fine."
Yu Chen waved his hand. He only accepted one hundred taels of silver, "Brother Xu, you are Hu Zi's master. I don't need any hard work to help you."
"Take it."
Xu Qingdao.
"this……"
When Yu Chen saw Xu Qing's eyes, he nodded, "Thank you Brother Xu, Huzi, I still don't want to thank Master."
"Thank you, Master."
Yu Hu bowed and saluted.
"It's getting very late. You two should go back."
Xu Qingdao.
"OK."
"Farewell."
Yu Chen and Yu Hu nodded, and they left, closing the door to the courtyard. Only Xu Qing and a cauliflower snake were left in the entire courtyard.
"All this meat belongs to you."
Xu Qing pointed to the hundred kilograms of pork on the big cart and said to the cauliflower snake: "Eat hard, eat hard, and finish this hundred kilograms of pork as quickly as possible."
"Hiss..."
The cauliflower snake excitedly spit out the snake seeds, slowly climbed onto the cart, and began to swallow, finally eating a large piece of meat.
However.
After all, the cauliflower snake is an ordinary snake with average digestive ability. If you want to eat all the 100 kilograms of pork, it will probably take many days to finish it.
"take it easy."
Xu Qing looked at the cauliflower snake on the big cart and said thoughtfully: "Fortunately, it is winter now and the weather is cold. These pork are not easy to spoil even if they are kept for a long time."
A night of silence.
the next day.
Xu Qing woke up early, ate a pound of Black Mountain tiger meat, and went outside the city to start today's patrol duty. Because it was porridge time in the morning, Xu Qing met Jiang Feiying again.
"..."
Xu Qing tried his best not to look around and just stood where he was.
time flies.
finally.
Jiang Feiying finished serving porridge. She was about to leave the porridge shop as usual, but when she passed by Xu Qing, she stopped.
Xu Qing's body tensed slightly.
"Miss, what's wrong?"
asked Zilan, the maid next to Jiang Feiying.
"nothing."
Jiang Feiying shook her head, and she looked at Xu Qing, with a warm and sweet smile still on her beautiful face, "Hello, have we met somewhere?"
"this……"
Xu Qing lowered his head slightly and said, "Miss Jiang, I am just an ordinary martial arts apprentice. How could you have seen me? You must have remembered it wrong."
"Yeah?"
Jiang Feiying looked suspicious and asked again: "What's your name?"
"Xu Qing."
Xu Qing replied.
"Then which martial arts school do you practice martial arts at?"
Jiang Feiying asked again.
"Goshawk Martial Arts School."
Xu Qingdao.
"Maybe I really remembered it wrong."
Jiang Feiying said with a slightly apologetic expression.
"It's my pleasure."
Xu Qingdao.
"..."
Xu Qing raised his head and silently looked at Jiang Feiying's leaving figure.
"Am I being targeted?"
Xu Qing's face turned slightly solemn.
Just now.
Xu Qing's instinct greatly increased his vigilance, and the evil ghost mask in his arms reacted violently. Something was very wrong with the eldest lady of the Jiang family in front of him.
"call……"
Xu Qing took a deep breath and murmured softly: "I just want to be a little transparent, and I am too lazy to meddle in other people's business."
"result……"
"Still targeting me."
2 p.m.
Today's duty patrol is over.
Xu Qing returned to his residence.
inside the house.
In one of the rooms.
Xu Qing put a hundred pounds of pork and a cauliflower snake in the room. The cauliflower snake ate as much pork as possible every day, and then exercised constantly to digest the pork with its greatest efforts.
Today is a day.
The rat snake ate ten kilograms of pork.
[Rape snake LV1: 1/10. ]
"It can only be done slowly."
Xu Qing said.
In the courtyard.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Xu Qing was practicing Bajiquan. Although he had to go on duty every day, which reduced his martial arts practice time by more than half, he still practiced Bajiquan every day without interruption.
…
[Experience +1]
…
[Experience +1]
…
Unconsciously.
The sky had completely darkened.
It was getting late.
It was already around ten o'clock in the evening.
"Huh..."
Xu Qing stopped, exhaled a breath of turbid air, glanced at the gloomy sky, and returned to his bedroom and put on the evil ghost mask.
Slowly.
Xu Qing seemed to fall asleep.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Suddenly.
In the courtyard.
There were wisps of yin energy, and a gloomy atmosphere appeared. I don't know where it came from, and a pale ghost entered Xu Qing's residence.
The sight was closer.
Swish!
In the first time.
This ghost did not touch the ground, with disheveled hair and a white gown all over his body. He could ignore the wall and went straight into Xu Qing's bedroom.
Hiss...
The rat snake obviously noticed something and swam restlessly in the house, but because the door and windows were closed, the rat snake could not crawl out.
In the bedroom.
The ghost had come in and was floating beside Xu Qing's bed. The black long hair was flying all over the sky, like a black giant python, circling in the air.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! ! !
In an instant.
These long black hairs were like black spears, piercing Xu Qing on the bed, and were about to pierce Xu Qing's head.
"Hehehe..."
Suddenly.
A sinister and fierce laugh sounded.
In the corner of the bedroom, the hidden witch evil ghost revealed its traces, and quickly stretched out its skinny old right hand, which swelled up in the wind. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a huge ghost claw.
Crack! Crack!
It was just three or two.
The hair of the white-clothed ghost was torn off by the witch evil ghost.
"Die!"
Boom!
Xu Qing suddenly opened his eyes, and a powerful force burst out. He jumped up from the bed, and the blood and qi in his body reacted, and the Dan Jin burst out.
"Bajiquan! Collapse!"
Bang!
Xu Qing rushed to the front of the white-clothed ghost, shouted angrily, and punched out with his right hand. The Dan Jin burst out, and the blood and qi burst out, and the white-clothed ghost was directly defeated with one punch.
"Ah!!"
The white-clothed ghost exploded and exploded into a ghost mist all over the sky. In the end, only a black hair was left, which floated down from the air lightly.
Then.
The black hair also disappeared.
"Huh..."
Xu Qing took a deep breath, and he was completely awake.
You know.
Just today during the day, Xu Qing felt that he was being watched by Jiang Feiying, so when he went to bed tonight, he released the witch evil ghost in advance.
Sure enough.
There really was such a white ghost tonight.
If it weren't for the witch evil ghost guarding, if Xu Qing really fell asleep, he might have been hit, because this white ghost came and went without a trace and was difficult to detect.
Time flies.
In a blink of an eye.
Seven days later.
Since the last time a white ghost appeared, Xu Qing has never been attacked again. It was indeed a bit unexpected, but he didn't dare to be careless. He let the witch evil ghost guard him every night when he went to bed.
Ten o'clock in the evening.
Xu Qing came to the outside of the city. Today is his tenth day on duty. Today's patrol time is from ten o'clock in the evening to six o'clock in the morning of the next day.
In addition.
Since the strange incident seven or eight days ago caused the patrol team to lose three members, the other members dared not have any other thoughts.
So.
Nothing happened these days.
They are still safe and sound.
"Brother Xu."
Liu Xiao said to Xu Qing while walking on patrol: "So many days have passed, and the number of refugees and disaster victims outside the city has not only not decreased, but has increased."
"Indeed."
Xu Qing nodded.
You know.
On the day when Xu Qing started patrolling, the number of refugees and disaster victims outside the city was about 40,000. After only ten days, it has increased to about 60,000.
It is more than half.
The most important thing is.
The amount of porridge distributed by the three major families and the government office is getting less and less, and the porridge is getting thinner and thinner. The refugees and disaster victims outside the city have also noticed it.
"This is not a solution."
Su Changhe shook his head. He looked at the refugees and disaster victims around him and said in deep thought: "With so many refugees and disaster victims gathered together, if we don't handle it well, it will cause a disaster."
Unconsciously.
The time has come to twelve o'clock in the morning.
Buzz! Buzz! '
Suddenly.
Xu Qing's eyes condensed and looked at the refugees and disaster victims lying on the ground around him. These refugees and disaster victims suddenly stood up.
One, two, three...
More and more.
In a blink of an eye.
Nearly two-thirds of the disaster victims in the area patrolled by Xu Qing stood up inexplicably at this time, with empty eyes, like a walking corpse.
"What?!"
"What are you going to do?"
"Lie down and go to sleep!"
"..."
Liu Xiao and Su Changhe's pupils shrank as they shouted angrily.
