Chapter 62: The Middle Ground
"What are you kidding, this is not a bloody martial arts ......" Thorn couldn't help but complain.
"Huh? What did you just say? Yan Xuan heard it, turned his head and asked.
"No, nothing." Thorn waved his hand and turned the topic away.
The captain didn't feel surprised, no, not only was he not surprised, but he had an inexplicable expression of relief and looked at Xiao An. However, Xiao An is now immersed in the self-feeling of "he is so awesome and powerful", and he didn't notice the strange eyes of the adults at all.
Yan Xuan suddenly said: "If Xiao An learns this kind of body technique, then let him tell us the trick, so that we can move faster in the Sword Domain." β
Hearing Yan Xuan say this, the captain and the others also nodded in agreement, and the captain said to Xiao An: "Xiao An, how did you learn this set of body techniques?" Can you tell us the trick? β
Xiao An recovered from a good sense of self, and when he heard the captain say this, Xiao An hesitated, he didn't mind telling the captain that they knew, but he didn't know either.
After thinking about it for a while, Xiao An still said truthfully: "What about this...... How to say that? Anyway, I understood it all at once, and I felt that as long as I walked like this, I wouldn't be attacked, and it was much faster than I usually walked. β
"Is it just a feeling?" Thorn asked with some reluctance.
"Hmm." Xiao An nodded heavily.
This made the captain and the others look at each other...... By feeling, that is, the meaning of talent. Xiao An seems to really have an unparalleled talent in martial arts, but it is still too naΓ―ve to expect a child who has never even gone to school to be able to tell what secrets of martial arts he has.
"Alas......" Yan Xuan sighed and shook his head, as did Lao Ding and Xiao Jiang.
The captain smiled: "Forget it, it doesn't matter, it's okay if we go slower, it's just right, Xiao An has learned this set of body methods, and we don't have to worry too much about protecting him in the future." In danger, this kid can slip away alone. β
After experiencing this unexpected little episode, everyone continued to set off, the only difference was that Xiao An ran around a little happily, making the captain shout several times. However, although Xiao An is a bear, he is not stupid, in the Sword Domain, which can be called a dangerous forbidden place, he still does not dare to go too far away from the captain. As for escaping? He didn't mean that for a long time, but now he knew that outside the Sword Domain, there was a reincarnation of the Tower of Babel eyeing him.
Speaking of which, when Xiao An first met the captain, it was about half a month ago, when Xiao An was a small beggar in a small B-class shelter. In that shelter, there were many little beggars like him, and this was the status quo of most of the children in the post-apocalyptic shelter or oasis bazaar. For various reasons, they lost the protection of their parents or relatives in the last days, became orphans, and could only wander around begging and live without a meal.
It's just that Xiao An is different from other little beggars in that he doesn't know anything about his origins, except that he knows that his name is Xiao An, and he doesn't know anything else. I don't know my parents or why he is here. It was as if he had been living in this shelter since he was born.
In short, Xiao An only felt that he had not been in that shelter for long, and immediately after, he met the captain.
Xiao An still clearly remembers that when he first met the captain, he saw the brand-new spearhead chariot that the captain and them drove, and Xiao An, who had lived in the shelter for some days, knew the rules of survival after the end of the world well. He knew that the people who could afford to drive this kind of car must have a lot of background. The materials carried on his body are definitely not ordinary.
So, Xiao An, who had been hungry for several days, was a little dizzy, and when the captain and them left the car to replenish, he sneaked into the car and wanted to steal something.
But as a result, as soon as he opened the car door, he was dragged directly into the car by a big hand.
It turned out that Lao Ding was still in the car at that time, which is why the captain let the car stop in place.
Later, Xiao An didn't know what happened, because he fainted from hunger at that time. When he woke up again, he felt much better in his stomach and the smell of food in his mouth. It seems that while he was unconscious, he ate something.
And he also found that he was actually lying in a car, and the captain was sitting next to him, looking at him with a smile.
At that time, Xiao An opened his mouth and said: "Old pervert, pedophile, what do you want to do?!" Know who I am? I'm under the hands of the big head of the Eighth Street! Dare to kidnap me, beware of your life! β
No accident, Xiao An was beaten. However, the captain didn't know why they kept Xiao An with them all the time, and treated him well with food and drink. He has never suffered much.
It's just that in the post-apocalyptic world, Xiao An, who is used to seeing the darkness of human nature, always feels that the captain is not well-intentioned, maybe he is raising him with the intention of fattening and then slaughtering and eating meat, so he always thinks about escaping. After all, the "first meeting" between him and the captain left a rather deep impression on the other party, of course, a negative impression.
Now to get back to the point, after the captain and they walked for more than half an hour, Yan Xuan and the thorn gradually stopped, don't look at the fact that they only walked for such a short time, but because they actually used some unknown peerless body method, the distance they actually walked was not short. Enough for them to go from the periphery of the Sword Domain to the middle ground.
Treacherously said: "Further on, it is the middle ground of the Sword Domain, you listen to me first." β
"What? Is there any difference in the middle ground of the Sword Domain? The captain asked curiously.
Yan Xuan nodded and said, "As far as our current discoveries are concerned, the Sword Domain can be roughly divided into three levels, the outer area, the middle area, and the core area. Anyway, as long as you understand the three levels of outside, middle and inside, you will understand. β
Thorn pointed to his feet and said, "Actually, there is an easier way to tell the difference, do you see our feet?" We have left the desert terrain, and from now on, we have set foot on the Gobi terrain. This is the proof of entering the middle ground of the Sword Domain. β
Everyone looked down at their feet, and indeed, before they knew it, there was no more yellow sand under their feet, but a solid rocky ground. This kind of terrain should be geographically only found on the Gobi Desert.
Thorn continued, "What I'm going to say next, please remember it clearly. Different from the periphery of the Sword Domain, what appeared on the periphery of the Sword Domain was an irregular formless sword qi, but in the middle of the Sword Domain, what appeared was ...... Entity Sword Qi! β
