Xu Changqing sat on the sofa and played with the two crystal skulls in his hands, listening absentmindedly to Andy's account of the fierce battle on the beach at that time. \\\\ Su Chawei, who was also sitting on the sofa on the side, held a bottle of brandy, drinking wine and humming slang tunes, while tirelessly wiping the trophies on various tables repeatedly, and his wrinkled face was almost unable to see his eyes.

"Your table today is good, much better than I expected. After Andy finished speaking, Xu Changqing praised him, and then pushed the unused Shenxiao Five Thunder Talismans on the table in front of Andy, and said: "These Shenxiao Five Thunder Talismans will be used as a reward, you can keep them for yourself! ”

"Thank you, Master!" Andy unabashedly revealed his inner happiness, carefully tucked the five thunder talismans into the inner pocket of his clothes, and asked some of the spell casting problems he encountered during the battle. ^^^^

After Xu Changqing answered for him, he taught Andy some of the Pure Land Sect's common methods of fighting enemies before asking, "Andy, how are those women doing now?"

Andy said truthfully: "Now Miss Shen and the others have gone back to their respective cabins, they have contributed the most today, and they should be very tired." ”

"Well, go down! If Shen Qingwen and Catherine come out of the cabin, let them come and see me. Xu Changqing commanded, and after Andy went out, he turned around and handed the two crystal skulls in his hand to Su Chawei, and said, "Senior." What is the difference between these two crystal skulls?"

Su Chawei hurriedly swept the items on the table into a bag, then took the two crystal skulls, closed his eyes slightly, felt them with his heart for a while, and said: "The crystal skull that the three goddesses gave to Mr. feels no different from ordinary crystal products. There's nothing magical about it. As for the other crystal skull, there is a strong earth spirit qi in it, and the old decay cultivation is low, and it is impossible to see its full picture, but from its appearance, it seems to be a bit like the legendary Five Elements Spirit. ”

"Five Elements Spirit? Xu Changqing took back the crystal skull from Su Chawei, who looked reluctant. After playing with it a little more, he focused on the crystal skull of the Three Goddesses. Leng Ran said: "In this way, it seems that I have also been teased by the three goddesses, and what they gave me is a waste at all." ^^^^”

"Old decay doesn't think so. Su Chawei shook his head and recalled: "Judging from the expressions of the three goddesses when they handed over the things to the husband at that time, this thing is by no means as ordinary as imagined, we may not have used the right method, or this crystal skull is still missing something." ”

"Maybe!" Xu Changqing put the two crystal skulls into his sleeve. He stood up and walked out, and said, "We're just afraid that it will be calm for a while, and during this time, please trouble the seniors to take care of Andy more, so that he can familiarize himself with the cultivation realm and earth fighting methods, although he may not be able to use them in the future." But be prepared, he can't always take my five thunder talismans against the enemy. ”

After speaking, Xu Changqing left the cabin and walked from the small staircase to the upper floor to the large dining room. === At this moment, the passengers on the cruise ship have returned to the cruise ship from the chaotic city of Aden, they gathered in groups of three or five, standing in the glass window of the large restaurant, looking at the sandstorm outside in amazement, talking about all kinds of strange things that happened in Aden today.

Since the morning, strange things have been happening, starting with an earthquake and a strange black fog on the beach. Then there was a large dust storm out of thin air. These strange events caused an inexplicable panic to spread throughout the city. Coupled with the unprecedented intensity and duration of this sandstorm, the panic among the people has intensified. Everyone stayed in the house and prayed silently, and the originally noisy city immediately became silent, as if it had become a dead city. \\\\\

"Mr. Xu, you're here!" Gu Weijun, who was standing with a group of students from the Republic of China, immediately greeted Xu Changqing, looked a little anxious, and said: "I heard the first mate on the ship just now say that due to the sandstorm, the cruise ship seems to have to stay for two more days for repairs. ”

Xu Changqing and Gu Weijun stood by the window together, looked at the dark sand and dust scene outside the window, and said: "This is normal, the dust in the sky will affect the operation of the machine, in order to avoid accidents, it is necessary to do some necessary maintenance." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Gu Weijun, whose eyebrows were tightly locked, and said, "Mr. Gu, is there anything else difficult about being so troubled?"

Gu Weijun sighed, was silent for a while, and said: "I just received a telegram that the two universities of Harvard and Oxford in the United Kingdom and the University of Paris in France did not know why they suddenly made a breach of contract and did not agree to the admission of our students, and now the government is negotiating with Britain and France. Then he looked at the students who were talking to each other worriedly, and said: "They don't know the news yet, I don't know how to tell them the news, if the matter is confirmed, I'm afraid that half of the enthusiastic students here will go home full of disappointment." ”

"Mr. Gu, do you want me to talk to Chen Jingguo, the European director of the Chen family, about this? Let him use the Chen family's connections in Europe to help dredge up the universities in Britain and France. Xu Changqing said Gu Weijun's thoughts, but he shook his head in his hopeful gaze, and said: "There are some things you have to face by yourself, even if it is frustration and difficulty, after all, this is also part of growth, and it is not a good thing to ask for someone when you encounter something." After a pause, he said: "Although I won't help you find the Chen family, I can give you a little advice, after all, there are many people in Europe who are not at odds with Britain and France, whether it is Austria-Hungary or Germany, as long as the conditions are right, I believe they are willing to take in these students." In addition, this is also an opportunity for you revolutionaries who are high in the government of the Republic of China to learn how to negotiate and how to compromise, and in this world our country is still only a weak person who has just stood up. ”

"Sir, there is a point. Gu Weijun nodded in agreement at first, and quickly said with concern: "It's just that it's a bit too much to use the future and enthusiasm of these students to do the exercises?"

"Not at all. Xu Changqing smiled and pointed at those students, and said: "Let them know how hard-won their learning opportunities are, so that they will be more precious about it, and they will work harder and harder to learn the Western knowledge we need. ”
