The bearded uncle smiled, and when he heard Xue An say this, he also showed a relaxed expression on his face:

"Son of the Xue family, I didn't expect you to be a hearty person, I thought that your big family was all cowards. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

As he spoke, he patted Xue An on the shoulder:

"Forgive me for what I said before, with this demeanor, you are worthy of forming a team with us. Don't worry, although I usually make treasure bags most of the time, my fighting skills are also good, and I can also act as a shield when it is critical, and if something goes wrong with you at that time, I will help you top. ”

Xue An didn't expect this Uncle Beard to be so easy to speak, although he inadvertently felt that Uncle Beard's smiling face towards him was like a mask, a little deliberate, but it was not easy to say anything. I had to smile embarrassedly, saying that I would try my best not to hold back.

Uncle Hu didn't say anything more, stood beside Xue An, and joined the team.

Xue An wanted to take advantage of this atmosphere to say a few more words, but he found that there was something wrong with the eyes of the Freemasons looking at him in front of him, and there seemed to be a look of mockery and indifference in their eyes.

Suddenly, Xue An heard the sound of breaking the air coming towards him, and his spirit instantly reached a tense state. The corner of his eye drifted away, and Uncle Beard slammed his fist at his soft underbelly with a fierce face.

It was already too late to dodge, and Xue An still intended to gain the trust of the people present, so his body did not move, but only concentrated on activating the root bones, and the internal qi gathered under the ribs that would be concentrated.

"Bang!"

A sound echoed throughout the room, and a twisted wind blew out from between Xue An and Uncle Hu, causing most of the people present to close their eyes for a moment, and when they opened their eyes again, the scene became very unexpected.

A cut was made on Xue An's ribs, and there was a not-so-deep scar on his body, and there was still blood. And Uncle Hu was held by Xue An's two fingers against his neck, and if you look closely, Xue An's two fingers still have an extremely thin blade between them.

"Why are you plotting against me!" Xue An was really angry now. Just now, Uncle Hu suddenly attacked from behind, Xue An could understand that he wanted to test Xue An's reflexes and physical strength, but when he obviously saw that Xue An had decided to take his punch hard according to his previous promise, a blade still popped out of his cuff and stabbed it into Xue An's ribs mercilessly.

If Xue An's potential exploded between life and death, and he grabbed this blade at an extremely fast speed, maybe he would have been seriously injured by now.

Uncle Hu didn't seem to see the anger erupting from Xue An's eyes, and slowly took a step back one after another, pushing Xue An's hand around his neck to the side:

"Now, you're really qualified, call me when you go. ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the deep corridor, his expression was much colder than just now, and it also made Xue An feel much more real, as if he had taken off his disguise.

Yanzi saw everything just now, and when he saw that the matter was over, he hurriedly came up to help Xue An check the wound. It all happened so fast that she couldn't stop it, but luckily, no one was hurt in the end.

Although it was very embarrassing to use knives and guns, Xue An obviously noticed that the way the Freemasons present looked at him had changed, and it was a good change. There was no longer the contempt and banter in their eyes just now, although it was not kind, but after all, there was more recognition of Xue An in their eyes.

Only then did Xue An understand that in this world, in order to survive, strength is the most important thing. Even in an organization like Freemasonry, which is assembled to help the slum people, the reality is that if you don't have enough ability, no one will cooperate with you, even if you are a good person.

Soon, the three of them stood up and came together to discuss the formation of the team. Two of them were acquaintances, that is, the earth dog and the beautiful snake that they had just met at the door, and the rest of them did not know a young man with an ordinary face, who kept his mouth closed and did not speak, but just followed the beauty snake.

The earth dog has a rough voice, but he speaks very heartily:

"I can make eyes, and the beautiful snake and his brother are treasures. plus you, Young Master Xue, Yanzi and Bearded Daddy, there are a total of six people. If you get the blood jade, the two of you will take half of it, and we will be left to divide the other half equally. ”

Xue An looked at Yanzi, he always thought that the spoils of war in the team should be divided equally, and the division of the earth dog was not interesting.

Swallow nodded, indicating that this was a fair way to distribute the spoils. The shield is the most dangerous division of labor, requiring the need to face the attack of the beast at a critical moment and cover the retreat of teammates, so it usually receives the most income of the squad, and of course, the fastest member of the squad.

Since the rules are like this, Xue An also nodded, his purpose was not actually for the blood jade, but to be able to train himself and prepare for the selection of the pilgrimage group in the future. Since the old man Dao attaches so much importance to this pilgrimage, there must be a reason, Xue An is willing to believe in the vision of a wise old man.

Except for Xue An, the group is a veteran, and they can set off with a little preparation, this is just a short-distance jade picking expedition, and they are probably only going to stay outside the city gate for two or three days, and everyone doesn't bring too many things, they are all traveling lightly. Xue An only carried a dagger given to him by the old man Bai in his arms, although this dagger could not be named, it was extremely sharp, and it was very easy to make traps, and when he had to fight the fierce beast head-on, it was also a murderous blade.

There are still some cumbersome procedures for going out, and these days, due to the poor overall blood jade income in Drifting Snow City, the entry and exit tax review at the city gate guard is also more stringent, otherwise their superiors may not be able to pay their salaries.

Going out of the city gate and walking more than ten kilometers to the south of Drifting Snow City, Xue An understood why the situation in Drifting Snow City was so bad recently, because the fierce beasts in this wasteland seemed to have suddenly more than doubled.

In just a short distance, it was only less than half an hour for the six people who had already awakened their talents, but in this process, Xue An and the six had already encountered four fierce beasts, among which there was a fanged boar with medium reminders, if it weren't for the fact that it belonged to the kind of fierce beasts that moved slowly and had strong lethality, it would be a little difficult for the six people to get rid of it.

The six people who had just left the city and were still in a relaxed state all looked serious, and the formation of the original six people advancing together was immediately changed, the earth dog was sent out as the first eye, and the swallow was on standby as the second eye.

The rest of Xue An, Beauty Snake and others were all running while nervously observing the surrounding situation. One is to detect the fierce beasts around you that may be leaking from the eyes as soon as possible, and then to observe whether there is any blood jade around you. Although this land is a place frequented by jade pickers, and has been looted almost countless times, there are still lucky people who find one or two blood jade just out of the dirt from time to time.

For this kind of blood jade that can be obtained before entering the danger zone, every one of them is a surprise for the jade pickers.

However, when Xue An was scanning around, the corner of his eye seemed to be poked by something, and when he turned his head to look, the younger brother of the beauty snake, who had been speechless, was staring at him with squinting eyes, like a cat staring at a mouse.
