After the fog, I became a birdman

Qi Jiang was making spicy beef strips in the kitchen, but Su Qing felt choked up so he didn't go in to help.

It is already evening, and they usually go to Fengcheng base for classes at about this time, even if students may not come, they will not miss a night.

They heard the cries of king monsters last night and today, and the sound wave carried a sense of command and deterrence. Su Qing guessed that Fengcheng should have fought with the monster army by now, so she wanted to ask Han Teacher, do you want to go there today?

Taking out the communication jade talisman, Su Qingchao injected a spiritual power into it: "Mr. Han, do we need to go to class today?"

After half an hour, Qi Jiang had already made his beef strips and was washing rice and cooking, when Mr. Han's reply arrived.

Mr. Han's tired voice carried a heavy determination, and he said concisely: "No need."

In the background sound, beast roars, screams and shouts sounded very close. Su Qing put down the communication jade talisman and did not disturb him any more.

"Have you handed it over?" Qi Jiang opened the kitchen door, and a spicy smell wafted out.

"Well, it sounds like we're fighting, so we should be able to handle it." Su Qing nodded lightly, and was a little thankful, "To be honest, it's good that we woke up early, otherwise we would have to fight in the base now, and imagine being at home like last night Sleeping peacefully is a fantasy."

This is what they were most worried about before, and it is also the price of following the crowd.

In the past, they were always disturbed by various changes in their plans and rhythms. Just like the current Fengcheng base, they were always unable to live according to their own ideas.

If they fall behind, they will be beaten. If they still waste their time on other places, and don't have enough time to grow and become stronger, they will be as precarious as the people in the base now.

Of course, they shouldn't look too weak, but they definitely can't live as comfortably as they are now, and they won't have their own territory.

"One step behind, step by step behind." Qi Jiang shook his head and went back to chop vegetables with a kitchen knife, "But they still have a chance, Mr. Han will let them grow up."

"But if you want to live a more comfortable life, you have to be more distracted."

"It's not so easy to live comfortably in this world." Qi Jiang couldn't help laughing, and sighed again when he thought of the monster on the first step, "When I knew that the king monster in Fengwai Mountain was only on the second step, I thought We’re not too far behind and end up being taught to be human again.”

Su Qing was silent for a few seconds, and there was inevitably some worry in his eyes: "The sound waves have spread so far, I am now on the second step, and I can travel nearly two thousand kilometers with all my strength. Even if the blood of the king monster is not the king The bloodline, the level is not low."

The purity of their bloodlines is considered to be the highest, and it is not sure how close they are to the bloodlines of the same level, but they can feel that the king monster is not simple.

Qi Jiang's chopping action slowed down: "I agreed to it, but I still have to do it anyway. We are two people on the left and right, and the blood purity is also high. The sum is about the same."

"You still can't slack off. If you don't strengthen your strength, once you fall behind, you may die in the hands of the hidden king one day. This time, a real first step will suddenly appear?" Su Qing sighed. , Seeing that the smell in the kitchen was almost gone, I went in to help.

Qi Jiang didn't talk about it anymore, but he agreed in his heart.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten. If you become a strong person, you can at least maintain your current quality of life and live a more comfortable life, so you won't feel as insecure as before.

Jin Jin came back later than Su Qing and the two thought, but he hunted two monsters.

Holding in its left paw was a small yellow-haired strange bird, almost twice the size of the previous rabbit, about the size of a piglet, and it was still bleeding when it flew home.

On the right paw is a three-meter-tall spotted deer, with three holes on its head, corresponding to the size of Jin Jin's claws. The blood on the wound has been frozen, which is obviously the first prey.

He should have realized how big a hole the three words "twice as big" are during the hunting, so he went to hunt a small prey again.

Jin Jin flew down the corridor, threw both preys on the ground, yelled towards the room, and pointed at the smaller bird with the tips of its wings.

Qi Jiang, who was cooking inside, took a look, and stretched out his hand to make an OK gesture.

Su Qing opened the whole door. Jin Jin was very big. When he walked into the living room, he almost filled the room to the brim. He even squeezed some ornaments on the table to the ground. Su Qing wanted to wipe his feet clean. There's nothing to do with the mud on it.

Jin Jin couldn't even move his wings in it, and was very uncomfortable. Seeing this, Su Qing could only helplessly say: "Go to the back, everyone will eat in the backyard later."

Hearing this, Jin Jin could only retreat a little bit regretfully, stretched out his head and rubbed Su Qing's hand before flying to the backyard.

Su Qing put away all the prey and closed the door, and walked into the kitchen: "Brother Jiang, deal with the bird that Jin Jin brought back, let me cook."

This yellow-haired bird is not very big, Qi Jiang cooked it directly in the kitchen, and took out the animal pills inside, rinsed and put it aside: "It's not good to keep that big Jin Jin at home, let it go away in two days." Take him away."

Naturally, Su Qing wouldn't be greedy for the children's food, but he just felt that the prey was too big, and Jin Jin might not be able to eat it until it rotted away.

He thought about making a universe bag to hold the prey for the child, but he felt that rot would rot, and it would be good for him to hunt more children, but it was not impossible to make a universe bag.

"Why don't you study how to make a Qiankun bag? Let's make one for each of the two children, so that the animal pill can be kept by itself, and it's time for the children to save some private money when they grow up."

This is a big problem, but Qi Jiang also felt that the space in the universe bag left by his grandfather was a bit small, so he nodded: "Okay, let me study it."

Su Qing nodded with a smile, and took out the boiled beef in the pot. When the oil was poured, she felt the spicy taste was very strong, she tilted her head and sneezed, and moved away: "Brother Jiang, did you do this?"

Qi Jiang glanced back, felt that it was almost the same as what he had eaten before, and hummed: "That's it."

"That's good." Su Qing took out the dishes with a smile, and continued the topic just now, "Will this delay your research on the new compass?"

"As you said, you know everything." Qi Jiang smiled confidently, "Does the teacher think that the apprentices you teach can't learn your essence?"

"Irregularity." Su Qing spat at him, then turned around to prepare the stir-fried hot pot base, he had never eaten this, so the steps had to follow the recipe.

The recipes are naturally the ones that Qi Jiang collected back then. Su Qing turned over several spicy pots, and the more he looked at them, the more he frowned, and he asked uncertainly, "Does the hot pot also need to be spicy?"

"It's your first time eating spicy food, let's eat boiled beef to try the taste." Qi Jiang turned to look at his current page, and then went back to chop the bones, "Turn forward two pages, eat that mushroom, We have enough food."

"Have you memorized it yet?" Su Qing laughed, and asked teasingly while flipping through the book, "When did you memorize it? You didn't pick me to memorize it when you read the book, did you?"

"How dare I do that, teacher." Qi Jiang hurriedly begged for mercy, "I recited it before, so it certainly didn't take up my study time."

Su Qing snorted softly, wrote down the main points of the recipe, and then began to prepare the ingredients. Halfway through, she saw Shan Shan squatting at the door, and asked Jin Jin to play with Jin Jin because she was afraid that she would be bored.

Shanshan is actually not very familiar with Jin Jin, but she looked at a vicious uncle who didn't like her sticking with her father, thinking that she couldn't let her father hug her here, so she meowed and ran to the backyard.

She was going to see that silly brother, lest he be fooled by the vicious uncle next time.

The sun sets more simply, not as dilly-dally as before.

Today's daytime temperature is around 15 degrees. It may be that the temperature of the environment itself is much lower than before, and the temperature at night also drops faster than yesterday.

Qi Jiang carried the dining table to the backyard, and took the vegetables and hot pot over there. Su Qing looked at the cold wind blowing outside again, opened the window and got the thermometer out, and took it back when Qi Jiang was almost done moving things.

"Brother Jiang, it's dropped to five or six degrees." Su Qing was a little surprised, "It's not even seven o'clock."

"Don't worry about this, let's eat first." Qi Jiang put away the thermometer and dragged Su Qing to the backyard.

The aroma of the hot pot made Jin Jin poke his head out of the room, and Shan Shan stared at the side of the table. Su Qing, who came out of the corridor, looked at these two hopeless children and couldn't bear to I can't help laughing.

"Meow~"

"Aww!"

The two children began to urge Su Qing to hurry up, and the latter subconsciously quickened his pace: "Here we come."

Everyone gathers around the dining table, and the meat in the hot pot will take a while, so they start with boiled beef and braised yellow-feathered bird.

The two children had no choice but to rely on Su Qing to feed them. Qi Jiang ate a few mouthfuls and saw that Su Qing was too busy to take a bite, so he directly took over the job of feeding the children, tore off a bird's leg and put it in front of Jin Jin :"eat!"

"Aww!" Jin Jin turned his face away in disgust and refused to eat.

"It's enough for your father to just feed you." Qi Jiang continued to put the bird's leg to his mouth, "You see your father didn't even eat a bite of food."

Jin Jin glanced at Su Qing, seeing that the vegetables that Qi Jiang put in just now hadn't been touched at all, so he ate in a coy manner.

Qi Jiang said coldly: "You are used to it."

After feeding the little one, he looked at the eldest daughter who no longer knew when she was nestling on Su Qing's lap and commanding with her front paws, her eyes were full of threats.

A few seconds later, Shanshan climbed down Su Qing's legs in a dejected manner, sat on his stool and ate a large piece of meat that Qi Jiang picked up.

After not having to feed the children, Su Qing was finally liberated. After looking at the braised bird meat without any chili and the red boiled beef beside him, he hesitated for two seconds before taking a bite of the bird meat first.

The bird meat is very tender, Su Qing was a little surprised: "Is the bird meat so delicious? The white-haired bird tasted very good last time."

"Maybe." Qi Jiang picked up a piece of boiled beef, passed the water by the side before giving it to Su Qing, "Try this, if you don't like it, we won't do it next time."

Although he has a strong taste, he doesn't have to eat spicy food. If Su Qing doesn't like it, he just doesn't do it in the future.

Su Qing took a sip carefully, her eyes widened in surprise again: "Huh?"

The beef is very fragrant and tender in the mouth. After chewing for a few times, the tongue feels a little spicy, but it is not very spicy. The taste of the beef is more fresh because of the spiciness.

He felt a little unbelievable. He didn't expect that it would be so choking when it was cooked, but it would taste so delicious.

"Is it delicious?" Qi Jiang smiled, "The peppers I prepared are not spicy, and the quantity is not large."

"It's delicious." Su Qing picked up another piece, and this time he ate it directly without water. There was no big difference except that it was a little more spicy than before. "It's really delicious!"

"It's good if you like it." Qi Jiang's smile deepened, "If you can eat spicy food, we can try other cuisines in the future. Many dishes have a very different feeling after adding spicy food, so we can try more."

Su Qing couldn't help but look forward to it, and checked the chili stock in his space again, feeling that there wasn't enough.

"Oops, I didn't buy many peppers before." He regretted a bit, "I knew I would buy some peppers."

Except for green peppers and other non-spicy peppers, other peppers are added. Although there are many types, the amount of each type is only a little, more than a dozen catties, and less than one or two catties. It is useless at all. several times.

"It's okay." Qi Jiang had a premonition, "I bought it, look at those black boxes before, there are dried chilies inside."

He had known for a long time that Su Qing would not buy these, and the peppers could not be eaten directly. When he bought them at the beginning, the price was so low that he asked them to give them half-sell and half-free. He bought the old ones and came back just to wait for Su Qing to recover. Yes, try other flavors.

Even if he knew that the world was bad, he still hoped that Su Qing could experience some things that he could not experience before due to physical reasons. Even if he could not achieve many things, as long as one or two things were achieved, these preparations would not be considered a loss.

Su Qing didn't know what was going on in his mind, he ate some more beef to feel the spiciness, and it took several mouthfuls of rice to eat one bite.

Noticing that his eating speed slowed down, Qi Jiang served a bowl of mushroom soup: "Drink some soup first."

Su Qing reluctantly glanced at the boiled beef that he had disliked before, and took a sip of the mushroom soup.

After recovering, his chopsticks started to reach the side of the boiled beef again. Seeing this, Qi Jiang smiled and picked another piece of boiled beef for him: "Okay, I won't eat spicy food anymore, in case my stomach feels uncomfortable The problem is not good. Come try the hot pot, if you like it, we will have lamb hot pot next meal."

"Will mutton smell bad?" Su Qing turned his chopsticks back to his own bowl, took a bite of the beef, and was amazed again.

"Your daughter said she wouldn't eat it." Qi Jiang glanced at Shan Shan who was buried in his meal.

Since the girl said that she doesn’t know how to smell, it’s delicious. Su Qing nodded with a smile: “Then let’s eat mutton tomorrow. Mutton soup is the warmest in winter.”

Qi Jiang smiled and said yes, picked up a few more chopsticks for the two children to boil the beef and the dishes in the hot pot, and told Jin Jin by the way: "Eat more modestly, the soup is soaring here."

Jin Jin was already very restrained, but she took a look at the floor where he had left specks of soup everywhere, and restrained herself again.

"It's okay." Su Qing shook his head, why not Jinjin go in and eat half full before coming out, the child just broke his shell and went hunting again, he should be hungry.

Hearing this, Qi Jiang could only nod his head, and seeing Jin Jin enter with a large pot of meat in his mouth with a happy face, he got up helplessly and took out all the cooked meat in the pot, and then turned around to bring new meat: "You Just get used to them."

Taking advantage of his turning around, Su Qing secretly stroked the cat, and exchanged a glance with Shan Shan, the father and daughter smiled tacitly.

Aware of their small movements, Qi Jiang turned around and abruptly stopped, and very cooperatively selected the meat on the stage to extend the time.

After Su Qing sat upright, he turned around slowly and brought the meat over, looked at Shan Shan secretly complacent, and at Su Qing who was smiling flatteringly at him, and sighed softly.

All right, as long as you are happy.

They were enjoying their dinner time here, but Fengcheng base encountered a big crisis.

In the previous three times when the monsters attacked the city, one side of the city wall was torn apart each time, and the monsters entered the city to kill wantonly. Everyone had to withstand tremendous pressure and spent a huge price to drive out the monsters in the city. Get out, or take a chance and kill.

In the afternoon, when everyone was hurrying to eat, monster beasts attacked the city for the fourth time, and the ten powerful monster beasts that appeared suddenly tore up all the defenses on all sides. This experience of rapid defeat made their hearts inevitably surge. A wave of despair.

But fortunately, Tan Yilong and others arrived in time and led the battle group to lure the ten monsters away. Only then did the Fengcheng base regain a glimmer of hope, and four hours later the monsters were driven out of the Fengcheng base again .

There were bursts of beast roars in the distance. After the army of monster beasts retreated, they did not attack again for a long time.

The monster is paying attention to the battle of the strong head, and the base has no way to see the situation over there, so hurry up to recover its strength.

The battle situation that was not clear to the people below was transmitted back to the main tent through Zhou Chen's mouth.

"Yu Pengyuan sacrificed."

"Hu Lu sacrificed."

"Zhou Pingliu was seriously injured... Zhou Pingliu died."

Zhou Chen's voice became lower and lower, and after reading the names of more than a dozen people, he began to cry: "Teacher, let me go out."

"No." Master Han grasped the communication jade talisman expressionlessly, "You can't move, you have to wait until..."

"Huang Lin sacrificed." Zhou Chen, who was hiding in the cave, paled, and called for a fight again, "Master, I want to go out, Huang Lin sacrificed, they couldn't bear it anymore."

Master Han's face changed drastically, he paused for a second, finally let go, closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Two hours!"

"Teacher!" Commander Zhou stood up with a nervous expression, "Call Consultant Su and Consultant Qi over here."

"Ten monsters on the second step are indeed not something we can deal with now." Minister Qin also said in a deep voice, "We can't delay any longer."

"Ten heads of the second ladder can't beat it, so it's really far behind." Master Han sighed, picked up the communication jade talisman from the Snowless Mountain Range, and injected a spirit energy, "Consultant Su, Consultant Qi, Fengcheng is in trouble. Please come quickly!"

After he finished speaking, he put down the communication jade talisman: "Let everyone strengthen their guard and hold on for another two hours."

Head Zhou and the others went out, and the head of the logistics department was the last to leave. Looking at the tired-looking officer, he comforted softly: "Master, it's actually pretty good, at least Yilong and the others can hold ten second-step soldiers." monster."

Teacher Han's expression softened slightly, and he nodded with a chuckle: "Well, the training is still useful, so go ahead and do it."

When everyone went out, the smile on his face slowly disappeared: "It's still too slow."

Hearing the well-trained sound of preparing for battle on the city wall, he smiled again: "Forget it, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

On the other side, Su Qing and Qi Jiang started to clean up the table after eating. Halfway through washing the dishes, Shan Shan suddenly ran over with a jade talisman in his mouth: "Meow meow!"

Su Qing turned around and saw the communication jade talisman shining faintly. He quickly took off his gloves, picked up the communication jade talisman on the ground, and injected a ray of spiritual power.

"Consultant Su, Consultant Qi, Fengcheng is in trouble, please come quickly!"

Teacher Han's anxious voice came from the jade talisman, and Su Qing went into the room to get dressed: "Brother Jiang, Fengcheng Base has called us."

"I see." Qi Jiang also put down the things in his hands and went in to add clothes.

Their movements were quick, and when the door was opened, Shanshan also ran over and screamed nervously. Su Qing knew that she was worried about Shantu, but he was also worried about Shanshan, and hesitated whether to take her.

Qi Jiang blew a whistle and called Jin Jin out, picked up Shan Shan and threw it on top: "Go to Fengcheng by yourself, Jin Jin, and watch your sister."

"Aww!"

"Meow!"

Su Qing and Qi Jiang flew fast, and they flew away quickly, disappearing from sight in an instant.

Shan Shan grabbed Jin Jin's neck hair, opened his mouth and raised a claw to urge: "Meow!"

Jin Jin groaned, flew out of the Snowless Mountains and flew towards the original site of Fengcheng. After flying for a while, Shanshan felt that the road was not right, so he anxiously pointed in another direction and jumped desperately to convey his meaning: " Meow meow meow!"

Jin Jin had never been to the Fengcheng Base, so she was a little puzzled when she heard the words, but finally understood what she meant after being "punched and kicked" by her sister, and turned to fly to the Fengcheng Base.

Su Qing observed the distance between the mountains along the way, and probably knew how far the Fengcheng Base was from the Snowless Mountains.

Calculated according to the distance ratio between the various mountains, it should be as Qi Jiang thought, there must be a big move when changing seasons. The increased distance is not the previous [-] kilometers, but directly doubled, increasing the distance by [-] kilometers.

After Su Qing told Master Han that they had set off, about an hour and 40 minutes later, they were only the last [-] kilometers away from Fengcheng Base.

They were already very close to Fengcheng. Su Qing heard the roar of the beast in the distance, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. He took out the communication jade talisman and listened to Master Han's words again, feeling that the tone was not right.

"Brother Jiang, why does Mr. Han's tone feel a little disappointed?"

Qi Jiang didn't pay much attention, took it over and listened carefully, apart from nervousness, there was also a hint of disappointment in his voice.

"It should be an accident, maybe I didn't think about asking us to take action now."

Su Qing took the communication jade talisman and put it away: "The distance of the king monster sounds similar to before, so it shouldn't be it. Could it be that there is a second-tier monster?"

Qi Jiang felt that it was very possible. The lower reaches of the Yuhe Waterfall used to be the third step. Even if there were a little more, Tan Yilong and the others plus the battle group could handle it. Well implemented.

It is said that the crisis is the most tempering people.

After a few days, everyone in Fengcheng who has experienced the baptism of blood must be able to tap their own potential, not to mention mere blood ability, those who can survive must be able to achieve a gorgeous turn, and will no longer be compared to monsters of the same realm. how much difference.

But now, less than a day has passed. I am afraid that this time is not enough for the gorgeous transformation of Fengcheng base.

Su Qing also thought of this point: "Then let's be quiet when we pass, so as not to prevent the king and monsters from rushing out."

"I'm afraid it's too late."

"Ok?"

Before Su Qing's puzzled word "huh?" came out, his hearing was a little worse than that of Qi Jiang's, and he heard the screaming sound wave that Qi Jiang had heard in advance.

There was a strong sense of warning in the sound waves.

It seems to be saying: You better stop!This is my prey!

Just like they pay attention to the king monsters in various places, the king monster is also paying attention to them. When they feel their breath appearing near the Yuhe Waterfall and approaching quickly, the king monster senses the crisis and leaves the rear directly , the breath quickly approached the Fengcheng base.

Su Qing was a little annoyed why he didn't think of this earlier, the wings that had been calm all this time burst into bright red and blue light, and while the flames were burning, the waves were tumbling, looking like a dream.

"I'll go over there first to stall for time."

His speed was faster than Qi Jiang's, and he disappeared into the distance in a blink of an eye. The two were rushing to Fengcheng base at their fastest speed.

But none of them flew straight to Fengcheng base, but deviated a little bit.

Boo!

Roar!

The sound wave of Su Qing and Qi Jiang's invitation to fight spread out to prevent the king and monsters from directly entering the Fengcheng base to kill.

At the Fengcheng base, Master Han, Captain Zhou and others were patrolling the defense line on the city wall. When they heard the sound of the king monster approaching quickly, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

"Not good! Strengthen your guard!"

"Quick, sound the alarm!"

clang clang...

Before the bell rang nine times, a tornado with ice and snow blew from a distance, and there seemed to be a monster in it, whether it was a dragon or a snake.

There were bursts of hissing, and the king monster came to the rear of the monster army. Its approach caused the temperature in the vicinity to drop to zero.

The army of monster beasts moved out of the way, and a tornado of ice swept in. Thousands of monster beasts beside them were covered in frost and fell to the ground trembling.

The pupils of the people on the city wall constricted, the sudden drop in temperature, the pressure of the king's monster at close range, and the powerful suppression of the king's blood made them unable to move, and even had the urge to kneel down.

In the distance, seeing the king and monsters going unimpeded and about to enter the Fengcheng base, Tan Yilong resisted the urge to surrender and shouted: "No!"

Boo!

Su Qing's screaming sound wave finally came, and the ice tornado suddenly stopped in front of the Fengcheng base. The distance of less than ten meters allowed everyone on the city wall to clearly see the two-horned white flood dragon inside.

Roar!

Qi Jiang's sound wave followed closely.

The two-horned white flood dragon looked into the distance and hissed, changed direction, and went straight to Su Qing's direction with a burst of anger.

The fire made the temperature rise slowly, Master Han let out a breath of relief, and the hoarfrost on his face turned into water droplets little by little.

Fortunately, I bought insurance, otherwise I would have played off.
