Volume 1 Chapter 63 The Defender
Chat time is always nice and short. After enjoying another dinner, Cuihua patted her slightly bulging lower abdomen and waved goodbye to the Qin family sisters and brothers, letting the two rest early.
After seeing Cuihua's figure leave, Mu Qing closed the door and turned back to the back room.
Back in the house, Mu Qing saw Mo De laying out the futon and pillows.
Looking at this guy's busy figure, and thinking of Mo De's serious appearance during the day, when he was talking nonsense about the identities of the two, Mu Qing couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Brother Qin Mo, let's let Sister Qing do these jobs." ”
glanced at Mu Qing who was sitting on the chair, and he didn't know that this guy was just talking. Seeing her sitting there as steady as Mount Tai, I am afraid that she has no intention of helping.
"Don't show it." Placing the two pairs of futons on the end of the kang, Mo had to reach out and test the temperature under the bedding. The residual heat of October on the desert is still there, and even if you don't make a fire to burn the kang, you won't feel cold.
"My sister naturally knows, so I don't have to worry about my brother." Mu Qing, who took advantage of the advantage and was addicted, was full of irrepressible joy in his tone.
"It's almost over, and I'll change you as my sister next time."
This undeterrent threat made Mu Qing hold her lower abdomen and laugh out loud. "Then my sister has to call me a good brother."
A vicious chill hit the tail vertebrae from the Tianling Gai, Mo had to gasp, and after thinking about it, he decided to be a younger brother honestly.
Seeing Mo De's embarrassed appearance, Mu Qing stopped teasing him. Take off your shoes and take off your robe, and get into the bed with a dodge.
The underwear on his body was a clean cloth shirt brought by the villagers, but it was obviously a little out of size. The originally loose style of cloth was put on Mu Qing's body at the moment, and the fabric in some places was obviously very tight.
Mo had to get up and extinguish the light, then took out the Boundary Stone Scabbard from the package and sat cross-legged at the other end of the earthen kang.
It's still early, so it's better to go a few more weeks to Zhoutian, and you can review the fire control method again after practicing.
"I didn't expect you to know about the 'Shuojin Brigade' and Butler Liu." The sunglasses on his face were not taken off, and Mu Qing's whole body was retracted into the quilt at this time, and only a small head was leaking outside.
"The organization has some dealings with the 'Chamber of Commerce', so if necessary, you can borrow the merchant password to facilitate your actions." Mo has to concentrate on two things, chatting with Mu Qing while cultivating.
"Besides, being able to be out during the moon phase and tide, if you want to think about it, it is only more appropriate to use the identity of the Golden Brigade as a cover."
"If you can maintain business contacts with the Chamber of Commerce, your organization can be regarded as a big business."
didn't talk deeply about the organization to which Mo De belonged, and the two tacitly changed the topic.
"The people in this village are really welcoming, but it's not easy to survive in this kind of desert sprawl." Mu Qing looked at the horizontal wood on the roof of the earthen house and sighed.
Unlike cities protected by security barriers, scattered settlements scattered throughout the continent are exposed to various risks at all times. This group of people who do not want to return to the city defend their homes in their own way.
In order to cope with the crisis, children growing up in scattered villages choose to wake up as soon as possible.
While the children in the city are still in the first year of junior high school and learning theories, the children in the diaspora have already begun to try to catch the abnormal movement and complete the first awakening. They don't have time to accumulate slowly, so they can only explore their own ways of ability through the experience passed down from their ancestors.
It would be nice to make up for the theoretical deficiencies in practice. Living in the diaspora, there is no shortage of all kinds of combat and practice.
"It's not easy." Mo had to respond.
Once by Li Changsheng's side, he had seen many human diasporas of all kinds. Some of these villages are hostile to outsiders, while others are extremely welcoming. The customs of one village and one settlement are different. In the various diaspora, most of them only meet with distant neighbors when they are married.
Li Changsheng respected the different cultures of each village and told Mo De to do the same.
"They choose to persevere, and they will give everything for it. Whatever the reason, the people who struggle to hold on to a piece of land with all their might deserve our respect. Mo De recalled the man's teachings and said slowly.
Mu Qing also nodded in agreement.
"The two groups of guests mentioned by Cuihua are also interesting, saying that they have come to the village to ask for refuge before the tide starts." Recalling the content of the small talk with the girl, Mu Qing wrapped the quilt and squirmed to the windowsill, looking at the few earthen houses outside by the extraordinarily bright moonlight tonight.
The lights were still on in the rooms of both groups, apparently not yet asleep.
The first guests lived in the two rooms to the southeast, a total of three people, a man and two women. Because of the first-come, first-served basis, it is natural that men and women can stay separately.
The second group of guests to the northeast was a bit larger, with ten people occupying a total of five rooms. According to Cuihua, the guests wanted to rent even this hut, but the village chief politely refused under the pretext of sparing.
The two groups of guests did not seem to know each other, and the first group of men and two women were usually confined to the house, and the people of the village could only see them when they were delivering food.
The second group of guests was much more lively, and even though they were warned by the village chief not to go around the harbor, several of them could not be idle. They walked together, running around the east end of this village, and from time to time they took out a pen and paper, wrote and drew to make some records.
"Let them go, and the village will arrange for people to monitor it. Let's just stay here honestly, wait until the moon phase tide is over, and then set sail for home. ”
"But listening to the village chief, there may be a lot of changes in the moon phase tide this time."
"The previous movements, while not small, don't seem to be worth bringing down the alert level to the full moon." After Mo had finished running for a week, after calming down the torrent of aliens in his body, he gently exhaled a breath of turbidity.
"Let's see the move, live in other people's land, eat other people's food, if there is any accident, we must help the village."
"Don't do it, it's you who make the move. Even if I'm going to make a move, I'll have to wait until you're hanging. Mu Qing yawned, obviously a little sleepy.
Hearing Mu Qing's words, Mo couldn't help but smile bitterly. Maybe only the day when he grows into a real powerhouse, he is qualified to fight alongside this guy.
"Sleepy, go to sleep, it's hard for you to sleep in the open these days." Before Mord could say that goodnight, he heard the sound of even breathing beside him.
Closing his eyes, Mo De also relaxed his mind, released the tiredness in the depths of his consciousness, covered the quilt and slowly fell asleep.
Outside the small earthen house, above the simple enchantment, the bright moon hanging high in the canopy seemed to be a little brighter.
