Chapter Seventy-Four: Always
As night falls, the bright moon hangs high in the sky, emitting a soft glow that illuminates the earth.
However, the temperature in the flaming mountains, which have lost their scorching sun, is still high, at hundreds of degrees Celsius, which can burn living beings to death.
Chen Qing kept practicing drawing his knife and slashing, practice makes perfect, and the ground was blasted out of big pits by him, with gravel splashing and dust rolling.
"Whew!"
After a long time, he regained his momentum and gently exhaled a breath of turbidity.
After that, he quickly left the Flame Mountains, and on the way back, dragged the giant python back for dinner, as for the three-headed dog......
Rao is Chen Qing has never cared about the appearance of monsters, and he is also a little unappetizing, with a bloody appearance and a rotten meat, he really can't eat it.
Back outside the Flame Mountains, Chen Qing built a bonfire, cut the snake into several sections, interspersed it with branches, and set it up on the fire.
After a while, the rich fragrance of the snake meat wafts out, and when it is roasted, it has a golden appearance that makes people salivate.
Monsters above the blue level not only have rich energy in their flesh, which can help people improve their strength, but also have a particularly delicious taste, which is not the same as before the mutation.
Almost the higher the strength before death, the more delicious it will be when cooked.
After the snake meat was completely cooked, Chen Qing couldn't wait to remove the branches, and was about to feast on them, when there was a sudden sound of rustling footsteps nearby.
Following the prestige, in the moonlight, a child in ragged clothes slowly approached and met his eyes.
The child was about thirteen or fourteen years old, and his face was very embarrassed, his little face stained, except for a pair of clear eyes that flickered, staring at the fragrant snake meat, with a little longing.
Chen Qing grabbed the branch with a large piece of snake meat inserted and handed it out: "Do you want to eat it?" ”
"Yes."
The child nodded, replied, and then approached timidly, reached out to take it, and devoured it without hesitation, obviously too hungry.
"Ahem!"
As he ate, he coughed violently.
Chen Qing patted his thin back and handed over a bottle of water: "Don't choke, eat slowly, it's not enough." ”
The child took the water, poured it into his mouth, poured half a bottle directly, and then continued to eat meat, not paying attention to the image.
Looking at the child like this, Chen Qing sighed secretly.
In the last days, for most people, life is too hard, especially for the elderly and young children who are powerless, they can almost only face despair without the power to resist.
Chen Qing took a bunch of meat and began to eat it himself.
For a whole day in the Flame Mountain Range, he spent a lot of physical strength, so he naturally had to replenish it well and prepare for tomorrow.
"Hiccup~!"
Ten minutes later, the child burped, patted his bulging little belly, his dirty face was full of happiness, looked at Chen Qing, and said gratefully: "Thank you, uncle, you are such a good person......
Chen Qing: "......"
Uncle?
I'm only seventeen years old, and this ...... Not quite right, right?
He couldn't laugh or cry a little, rubbing the child's head: "What about your parents? ”
Hearing this, the child's bright eyes were replaced by gloom, and two lines of tears slipped down: "They are all dead, I ...... I ......"
As he spoke, his tone choked and he became emotional.
Chen Qing was speechless, silently looking at the flames, his face was illuminated by the fire, and he did not respond.
If there is a girl next to him at this time, he may empathize, care for and comfort him, and say words that are useless but very useful, but he is not soft-hearted, and he is very sympathetic to the child's suffering, but he doesn't know what to say.
The other party has not just lost his parents, he is already alive very strong, Chen Qing feels that he has already learned to be strong.
"Uncle, is life always so painful? Or was it just like that when I was a kid? The child asked.
Chen Qing: "......"
After a moment's hesitation, he nodded heavily: "Always." ”
Perhaps, some people are born with a golden key in their mouths and have a life of glory and wealth, but the child in front of him is obviously not, he belongs to the latter, the latter who is destined to run around for life and suffer painfully.
Chen Qing didn't want to give him an inexplicable hope, that was deception.
"Thank you uncle for the dinner, you are such a nice person!" He got up, wiped the grease stains from his mouth, bowed one hundred and eighty degrees to Chen Qing, and then left silently.
"If you're hungry, come here at this time every day, and I'll provide you with food and water for free." Looking at his lonely but strong thin back, Chen Qing couldn't help but speak.
He has to train in the Flame Mountain Range for about a month, and during this time, he can help the other party get the power to survive in the last days to a certain extent.
The child's footsteps stopped, turned around, looked at Chen Qing sitting by the bonfire, and bowed again: "Thank you, uncle!" ”
With that, he strode away, drowning in the sea of night, and lost his track.
After that, Chen Qing chose a comfortable branch and lay down to rest.
……
Following.
Chen Qing stepped into the Flame Mountain Range again, and with the lesson of the last time, he tried not to cross a certain "line", so as not to touch the horror that he should not face now.
The sun is like fire, but it can't stop Chen Qing, he looks for prey in the vast mountains, sometimes gallops with special pace rules, exercises his chosen combat skills, and walks in the clouds.
Liuyunbu is to make his speed skyrocket in a short period of time, and he needs to keep pondering the rhythm of his pace, as well as the explosiveness of his legs, which requires long-term training and is difficult to achieve overnight.
"Rustling ......"
Suddenly, he stopped, turned his head, and saw a purple-black centipede burrowing out from under the stone taller than a person, lifting the stone, and then rolling down, countless long feet swinging irregularly, and the tentacles trembled, making people's scalp tingle.
Being able to fly over boulders easily is enough to see that the strength of the centipede is very strong.
"Red level?" Chen Qing smiled, his eyes flashed with battle intent, and he summoned the Pitch Black Glaive Knife, held it with his right hand, and rushed straight up.
He found that the monsters in the Flame Mountain Range were all quite good, at least purple, and most of the time, they were all red level.
Of course, Chen Qing, a monster at the top of the red level, had also encountered it, and fled on the spot, deepening his training experience of convection cloud steps.
"Snort......"
The big knife swept over, and the edge was exposed.
The giant centipede was cut off by the waist, but at the same time it sprayed green venom, Chen Qing was vigilant and decisively retreated to dodge.
The giant centipede, which was broken into two segments, was extremely tenacious and still writhing.
Seeing this, Chen Qing took his knife up and down, cut him into four pieces, and after ensuring that it would definitely die, he took the red beads.
Now that he has mastered high-level bloody weapons, his combat power is no longer the same.
Yesterday, he may have to weigh it, but today, it is easy to kill him.
While absorbing the beads and running, Chen Qing looked in all directions, looking for prey, while the Awakening Spirit Realm was almost in full operation, his golden eyes were full of majesty and sacredness, and he went to observe the level of the monsters that might appear around him for the first time.
