Chapter 405: Listen

"What is the original?" Qiu Xuan withdrew the bone umbrella in her hand, pretending not to see the man's longing gaze.

The young girl, who was wrapped in layers of tight clothes all over her body, reluctantly withdrew her gaze from the bone umbrella and looked up at Qiu Xuan. "I can tell that this one you have is not one of those shoddy imitations out there, but a real ...... You show me and I'll tell you. ”

So Qiu Xuan was also very refreshing, and immediately sent the umbrella handle to the opposite hand. There seemed to be a wave of disdain in the girl's eyes, and she reached out and took the bone umbrella that was handed over. She stopped it...... Confiscation.

Girl: "...... What do you mean? ”

"You don't just say take a look?" Qiu Xuan held the cloth on the tip of the umbrella in one hand and looked at her with her head, "Look at it like this, it's all the same." ”

So the girl's eyes covered under the hood raised and glared at her fiercely, but she didn't tear her face directly and snatch it, just on the side she handed over, lowered her head and looked at it carefully.

"The material is very fresh bone, a whole vertebrae that are almost perfect and unbroken." The girl's palm rubbed the uneven handle of the umbrella, and her expression was completely calm. "You can see the stitching marks here, they are very perfect, and the craftsman can't do it to this extent without more than 20 years of experience."

Qiu Xuan couldn't see anything famous like this even if she looked at it from her point of view, and said casually with a perfunctory "uh-huh", while saying: "Is this thing still a genuine fake, how did you see it, and what is so special about the genuine product?" ”

"You don't understand anything at all!" The girl looked up at her again, "Take this umbrella as an example, if there are 100 human bone umbrellas produced in all the products, then only one of these 100 is really successful, that is, 'genuine' - this is still in the case of good luck, sometimes there is often no genuine product out of 100." ”

"The real 'original' is like that," the girl lowered her head again, and carefully wiped the folded umbrella with the tenderness and care of a lover's face. "People with special abilities can communicate with heaven and earth through the power of authentic products, so as to 'hear' the grace of the gods."

Qiu Xuan said: "What kind of talent is a person with special abilities? ”

"Of course I'm like this!"

Saying this, the girl suddenly became proud with a subtle expression. "Our family was the first to discover that the gods could listen to the gods in ornaments made from stripped human bones, and it was in the first generation that the 'Creator God' favored our ancestors and gave us the power to follow Him."

Qiu Xuan suddenly looked up at her. "Is your family's surname Alecshan?"

As soon as these words came out, the girl suddenly ignored the bone umbrella in her hand, jumped up like a fried cat, and glared at Qiu Xuan viciously. She seemed to have originally decided that few people in this world knew about their family, and Qiu Xuan clearly looked like an outsider who didn't know anything, so she told her these things without revealing her identity.

"How would you know!" The girl gritted her teeth and immediately pointed the weapon assigned in her hand at her, "You secretly investigate me, who are you!" ”

"I just guessed, I didn't expect you to react so much, so I don't know directly now?" Qiu Xuan was also a little helpless, she really didn't expect that this girl would still look like she was being protected to the top. "I'm not a person, I don't belong to any force, I'm just an ordinary city citizen."

The girl pursed her lips, but the machete in her hand was still pointing and not putting it down. And now, her tightly covered hood slipped off a few points, and a few strands of brown hair fell to her ears, if it weren't for the look of great surprise and regret in her heart at this moment, she would have looked like an ordinary and gentle girl.

Alex is blonde, but this girl, who is also surnamed Alex, is brown-haired.

This suspicion only existed for a second, and then it was omitted by "it is normal for large families to marry with foreign surnames". Qiu Xuan stared at the other party for a few seconds, and suddenly said, "Do you recognize a person named ......?"

She stopped abruptly, realizing that she didn't even know what Mount Alec was called. Alecshan has always called the red-haired and black-haired merchants, and no one seems to know what the "name" of the blonde merchant is.

"What?"

"It's just one, a blonde male, about thirty years old? He has been a black merchant for a few years underground, mainly dealing in human bones. It's also from your family, do you know what his name is? ”

"Black merchant, blonde?" The girl frowned, but she remembered it in her memory.

Even if Alecshan used to be a prosperous family of one person, and now it has developed to the present, there are only a few left, and they are naturally familiar with each other. It's just that the girl went through all the people in the family, and she couldn't find such a qualified person.

"Blonde male black businessman, we don't have such a person in our family." She raised her head and affirmed, "Although several uncles who are in business are also doing the transaction chain of human bones, none of them meet the conditions you said. ”

What's going on, is Alexan deceiving people, or is the girl in front of you who is also surnamed Alex hiding something?

"You're really not one of those lords?" After a brief recollection, the girl was holding a machete, looking to put down her snack but still a little suspicious. "Actually, it's nothing that you have a force behind you, what I really care about is...... I thought you were secretly investigating me and my family. ”

Qiu Xuan, who had half of the forces of Zhuoer City behind him: "Don't worry, I'm not that kind of person." ”

She reached out and grasped the other's machete in an incredibly natural motion, gently tossed it aside in a series of surprises, and sat down next to the girl.

"Can you show me how you 'listened' to the will of the gods through this thing?"

Qiu Xuan's tone and movements were all very natural, and even this inquiry sounded like she was just asking a question like "Are you going to eat together tonight", and even seemed that the girl's vigilant movements were a bit fussy.

The girl with a little freckles on her face hesitated to glance in Qiu Xuan's direction, and for a moment she even felt that she was really too sensitive. But then she looked firm for a moment, shook her head, and sat back down.

"Not right now. It will not be heard until the first winter solstice. ”

According to the world's calendar, the first winter solstice will be at least two months away from today. It will definitely not be seen in the short term, but this girl from Alec Hill may be a key figure.

Just when Qiu Xuan didn't say a word and began to sit next to the girl, now the number on the field has been called more than six hundred.

And the number of people on their side has already reached eight - anyway, there will be another round of screening in the end.

According to the team leader Jin Shu, there are a total of 798 people participating in the C-level beam here, and there are still more than 100 people in the back.

Qiu Xuan scanned the people fighting in the arena while talking to the girl, and suddenly after one of them fell to the ground and was eliminated, she saw the person who walked in from the entrance of the arch and smacked her mouth silently.

Old "acquaintances".

Zhu Kunhai.

As a executioner who was teleported to the Proving Ground at the same time as her, she was sent to Othello by the law enforcement team after losing the first Gluttony Contest. Now that he calculates the time, he has to stay in Osel for at least half a month, and this time the Gluttony Contest has just begun to issue tickets, so it can be concluded that he entered Drow City by exchanging twenty cups of blood.

Judging by his physical condition, the twenty cups of blood were definitely not drawn from himself.

Zhu Kunhai walked into the venue expressionlessly and took the weapon that Jin Shu handed over at random. As soon as he saw the piece of fabric, the muscles on his face twitched violently, and his eyes darkened as he glanced at the tailor's scissors held by the opponent he was facing.

It seemed that she was aware of Qiu Xuan's distraction, and the girl didn't say much after saying a word, and also turned back to stare at the competition in the field with her. It's just that from time to time, he will glance at the bone umbrella in Qiu Xuan's hand a few times when he thinks he is covert, and then turn back as if nothing happened.

I don't know if it's lucky or unlucky, Zhu Kunhai is most likely a gunman.

Qiu Xuan had seen the small machine gun he had hidden under his coat several times, and combined with the various performances of this person before, his major ability could basically be concluded to be a long-range gunner.

Such people must be limited in their one-on-one melee combat, especially when they are not able to use their own weapons and are only assigned some crooked melon and cracked date "weapons".

It's just that such a disadvantage is temporary for Zhu Kunhai.

Qiu Xuan sat behind the fence not far away, watching as the weapon in the man's hand changed from the original cloth to the tailor's scissors, then to a crowbar, a sickle, and even now, an improved snakeskin slingshot.

If you let normal people choose, most people should not give up the sickle to choose a slingshot, but Zhu Kunhai's situation is different. He was already very good at long-range output equipment, especially when anyone with a discerning eye could see that the slingshot was not a crude toy for children, but a real military, well-made, flexible and lethal weapon.

With a bag of steel ball bullets, the power of shooting is no less than that of ordinary firearms on the market.

How could he be so lucky?

Qiu Xuan now had a headache when she saw the bathing duck with two slanted eyes on the weapon box behind Zhu Kunhai, and the fingers hanging by her side subconsciously touched the put away bone umbrella, a little hesitant.

The girl said that this umbrella was a truly rare "genuine", and although it would not be possible to see some of the mystery until the winter solstice, it could not be destroyed here with it as a weapon.

Qiu Xuan suddenly stood up.

The sudden movement attracted the attention of most people on the field, Qiu Xuan walked through the crowd without squinting, and paused when she passed by Zhu Kunhai with a slightly surprised look when she saw that she was also here.

She didn't talk to Zhu Kunhai, she walked straight to the team leader Jin Shu and said, "I'm going to the toilet." ”

Jin Shu was stunned, then raised his hand and pointed in a direction, and instructed to come back as soon as possible, and there were not many people left. Qiu Xuan avoided the crowd's sight and squatted down behind him, looked at the bone umbrella in his hand for a while, and suddenly completely opened the umbrella with all his strength.

……

"At the moment all the calls are over, and we have a total of 10 winners in a row." Jin Shu stood in front of the people and looked around at the crowd of people standing or sitting. "Now the same set aside venue is used as the range, ten people compete together in the middle, and the remaining seven people can get tickets to this gluttony competition."

To be honest, Qiu Xuan was lucky this time, and was assigned to a beam with force value as the distribution standard.

For a Executioner like her, if tickets were issued in this way for every Gluttony Contest, the Executioner would not be so passive in preparing twenty bottles of wine at the end of each month.

- Of course, it's one thing to be able to participate in a gluttony contest, and another thing is to win, so it's a good idea to be prepared to be on the safe side.

It's a pity that the standard for issuing each beam is different every time. With the prohibition of using their "advantages", the executioner could not even do much better than the aborigines.

Next, Jin Shu was not annoyed and said the rules over and over again, and they were all the original ones. When everyone finally finished listening to him, the squad leader took a step back and drove the crowd to the designated location.

"After I rattle the bell, the final selection begins."

As he spoke, he made sure that everyone was already standing in their assigned position. Reaching out his hand, he flicked the dangling bell.

In an instant, several figures moved rapidly at a speed that was difficult to identify with the naked eye. In addition to the executioners who have inherent advantages, the three aborigines are also strong opponents.

Qiu Xuan's movements are mainly dodging, and he rarely shoots at the beginning, and every time others pass by, he is always unprotected by the bone umbrella in his hand.

Choosing seven out of ten sounds like an easy thing to do, after all, the probability is very high.

It's just that when you actually stand here as a member of the arena, you will instantly realize that this is not something to be taken for granted at all.

Among these ten people, there may be those who are lucky enough to rise all the way up and have a mismatched strength, but the vast majority of them are at least high-ranking executioners with rich strength and natives who are on par with the best of all tenthousands. Each person alone is enough to fight hard, let alone ten combined.

Qiu Xuan found the gap, went around behind him and raised his foot to kick a lucky executioner all the way out of the field. Before she could stand still, a cold light came straight at her.
