Please Have a Cup of Green Tea - Chapter 118
Tang’s super power is simply “wind power” in his own words.
But Christian knew that if a fool really took his words seriously, he wouldn’t even know how to die.
The essence of wind is the flow of air caused by air pressure differences, in other words, Tang is essentially controlling air particles.
It seems simple at first glance, but it is actually a wonderful use of superpowers, which involves a lot of calculations of mechanics and aerodynamics, but it is now used by him to discuss. An ignorant noble lady is delighted—
It can only be said that genius is willful.
Tang’s computing ability, reaction speed, and the degree of tricking people’s hearts… It is all of these that make the federal government place high hopes on this “student”, cultivate them in advance, and even send him to the “Garden of Eden”.
Who would have thought he would be a spy?
If it weren’t for the Chamber of Commerce’s strong tentacles and some coincidences, Christian estimated that he would also be kept in the dark, thinking that this harmless baby-faced boy was the “rising star” of the government, not the “star thief”. Intelligence Elite”.
The guy who hides so deeply, actually has time to play with her… Christina was in a complicated mood, staring at the two figures above, and finally shook his head and walked up the spiral staircase.
On the other side, the two flying higher and higher reached the dome, which is a hollowed-out tower, and light is projected from the top glass.
Bi Ming looked at the glass that was not clean, but still transparent, and was a little curious: “There is no moss or vines growing in these places, what’s going on?”
Tang was behind her and felt the change in air pressure, and her honey-colored eyes narrowed: “Because it’s very high here, the air is thin, and it’s still connected to a solar power system… It’s an ancient power system that was eliminated. “
He obviously felt that Bi Ming could not understand, and said again: “Solar energy is equivalent to the current day and star energy.”
But Bi Ming said “oh”: “I have heard of the sun. It was the age of the ancient blue star, the star that human beings depended on for survival.”
“Well,” Tang curled his lips, “after the sun became a dead star, the blue star disappeared, and the entire galaxy was pitch black…”
“I’ve heard of this…” Bi Ming stopped him from continuing to popularize science, and pointed to the top, “There’s a shiny thing hanging there, isn’t it a key?”
“Look.” Tang raised his eyebrows, letting the two continue to rise.
“Hey, it looks like the moon?” Looking at the round, shiny sphere, Bi Ming raised his hand to pick it, but was blocked by the man behind him.
“Things in the ruins cannot be touched with bare hands, and the dust on them is likely to contain ancient microorganisms, which are easy to spread bacteria.”
Bi Ming touched the back of the hand he patted, and looked up at him: “Then what can you do?”
Tang smiled, hooked his fingers, and then a gust of wind blew over and swayed the ball until it swayed in front of them.
Bi Ming let out a small exclamation, even someone like her who seldom came into contact with Sentinels found out, no wonder everyone likes to call them “monsters”, this kind of talent of using the elements of nature for one’s own use is really not like human beings .
When the shining sphere got close enough, they realized that it was a crystal ball that would refract light of various colors.
And it has many faces, pentagons and hexagons, and each side is engraved with a serial number, but it is not a number commonly used in the interstellar age, but “I”, “II”, “III”… These ancient Roman numerals.
“Why is it an ancient language again—” Bi Ming heard Tang tut from behind, “It seems that Arnold has to be brought over.”
Bi Ming pushed him: “Actually, don’t you think this is very similar to the order of numbers?”
Tang looked at it for a while and thought it made sense: “Wait, let me think about this thing, it’s very similar to the ‘door key’ mentioned in “Return to Ancient Blue Star”…”
It was the second time that Bi Ming had heard the film, the last time was when the staff led her to the primitive tribe.
“Is this movie good?” she asked in a low voice, “I feel like you’ve all seen it.”
Tang raised his eyebrows in surprise and stared at her carefully for a long time, until the eldest lady glared back fiercely, and then grinned: “The masterpiece in the history of the federal box office, not only has epic scenes, but also Your girls’ favorite poignant love story…”
“Don’t read the slogan, I’m asking you, is there really a lot of Gu Lanxing’s content in it?”
“Almost,” Tang shrugged, then raised his tone happily, “If you’re interested, we can project it back to the cabin, you can come to my room—or I can go to yours.”
“If you want to be beautiful, I will see it myself.” Bi Ming noticed the tone of his implied expectation and gave him a big white eye, “You should concentrate on studying this ‘door key’.”
“If I guessed correctly, this thing should be a teleportation tool used by ancient believers to return to the room,” Tang said with a light smile, “For example, just by touching the number on it, you can go to the room with that number…”
Bi Ming suggested: “Then try?”
“Don’t forget the virus… Huh?” Before Tang finished speaking, he saw the girl take out a handkerchief from her backpack.
“My handkerchief is made of antibacterial fiber, which has simple cooling and disinfection functions.” She lowered her eyes and wiped the crystal ball with the handkerchief. “Okay, press it.”
Tang seemed to know Bi Ming for the first time, and he bent his eyes: “The preparations are sufficient.”
“Come on,” the eldest lady frowned, “you don’t want me to press it, do you?”
“Of course not,” Tang Chao stretched out her hand to the side she wiped clean, “as Miss Testa’s knight, of course I have to help you block all risks.”
“Then press ‘I’, it feels a lot like ‘1’, I guess it’s room number 1.” Bi Ming lowered her eyes and said lightly.
Tang also felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he gently pressed his fingers along the “I” on the spherical surface—
The spheres began to glow profusely, wisps of light lingering around them like threads.
“Looks like you guessed right, I feel like this is a teleporter in my house.” Bi Ming looked at the boy.
As a sentinel, Tang has a strong perception of dangerous things, but at this moment he does not feel any danger from these apertures.
He thought for a moment, then suddenly raised his eyes and stretched out his hand towards Bi Ming.
“?” The blonde girl looked confused.
“Give me your hand, if there is any danger, at least I have time to pull you to run.” He showed a clear smile like a clear sky.
…
In the evening, on the dining table of the seaside cottage.
“So you all went back to that piece of quicksand?” Lilith, who was holding the rabbit, looked at Bi Ming who was embarrassed, and felt incredible, “I didn’t find anything, just came back like this?”
“That’s a teleporter, and we don’t know its end point.” The girl’s face was slightly red, her eyes widened, and she retorted seriously, “But at least we can rule out the ‘I’ side now, can’t we?”
“Well…” Lilith sighed and patted Bi Ming’s shoulder, “If it was me, I would explore other places inside and press it.”
Of course Bi Ming knew.
The group of ruins is large, with different branches, each leading to a room. Some rooms are locked and some are not. The locked room needs to be teleported with that “door key”, and the guests have to guess the number corresponding to the room.
These are all done by Arnold in the original book.
As for Cecia – she contributed the key to the Sphinx, allowing everyone to enter the ruins smoothly, enough for her fans to blow for a year.
“There are still a few days to come. Anyway, it’s enough to find the key to the next stage before the tenth day.” Tang behind her also nodded and chuckled, “If it wasn’t for Testie this time, we’d still enter. Not going.”
Christian next to him rubbed his temples.
Impulsivity really kills people, he was still walking on the stairs, the two guys were suddenly wrapped in blue light, and they were gone.
After hesitating for a moment between [Saving People] and [Exploring the Ruins Alone], he still went to get the teleporter that would make people disappear – and then fascinatedly pressed the same “I” as them.
Then all three returned to the entrance – near the quicksand.
When they wanted to enter the ruins again in the same way, they found that the sand had stopped flowing and had become an ordinary beach.
Christian and Tang also thought of a possibility: “There are organs in the ruins that can control the formation and disappearance of quicksand.”
Bi Ming remembered the original explanation:
[When being transported to the starting point by the “door key”, Cecia looked around blankly: “We were sent back to the entrance!”
Arnold stepped forward and held the gravel, carefully observed the surrounding area, and made a guess: “There is an underground river here, and the groundwater rises up during the day, turning the sand in this area into a mixture of soil and water, so the sand will collapse down. .”
Christian also began to think: “Is it accidental or regular?”
“When we came in, the quicksand collapsed once.” Arnold pondered, “Let the next group come here at the same time tomorrow. If the quicksand re-forms, it means that it is regular.”
He was right, it took a day for the quicksand to re-form, which meant that the ruins could only be entered once a day. 】
“Tang, is the stone statue at the entrance you’re talking about a sphinx?” Cecia looked at Tang, who was pressing her arm on the back of Bi Ming’s chair, showing an unconscious gesture of intimacy, and there was an unknown secret fire in her heart. , “I know that too.”
Tang raised his eyebrows: “Wow.” His tone was obviously perfunctory.
Cecia was so annoyed by his indifferent look: “Don’t you believe it?”
“I believe.” But so what? Tang blinked, then leaned over and muttered to Bi Ming, “Give me a piece of honey pork ribs, I’m starving to death.”
Bi Ming looked back, impatience in her blue eyes: “Are you annoying?”
“I made someone’s meat pad, and I got hurt,” Tang held the dinner plate, deliberately showing the scratches on his wrist, “Alas, I have no conscience, I will throw it away after I use it up.”
The eldest lady blushed. When she was sent away by the teleporter, she leaned against the other person tightly because of the violent bumps. The moment she came out, the other side was holding her own hand and was pressed to the ground by her. , rubbed by rough sand.
“Okay, I’ll hold you to death.” She pursed her lips, took the public spoon, and scooped a spoonful of spare ribs into the dishonest guy’s bowl.
Christian watched their interaction, the screeching sound of knives and forks on the plate.
He began to wonder, who was the person who finally came to the ruins, but whose IQ plummeted?
At this moment, the red-haired man who came out of the kitchen looked over lightly – the plate of grilled steak with honey sauce was one of his works tonight, and it was specially placed in Bi Ming’s hand.
He saw Tang’s provocative eyes when he was biting his ribs, but his expression was slightly cold, but he didn’t say anything.
“Phoenix…” Bi Ming called out a little embarrassedly, and seemed to realize that it was a little bad for him to give others the dishes made by men.
“Try it.” The red-haired man put the plate of creme brulee in front of Bi Ming, then pulled out the chair beside her and sat down as a matter of course.
Tang, who just wanted to sit in this position but was rejected:…
The eldest lady also turned around and made up a knife: “Why don’t you look for a position?”
With Phoenix by her side, her golden brown eyes narrowed, and a faint smile appeared on her lips: “Tesla, some people are born with their own quirks, like stealing other people’s food, and punishing them for standing.”
“Huh?” The blond girl didn’t quite understand Zhuma’s suggestion.
But Phoenix didn’t explain. Instead, he glanced back at Tang: “Forget it, I should thank you for helping her avoid danger today. You can take it all.”
The tone like a reward finally made Tang’s smile restrain a little bit.
“Your stuff? Pretty confident, Phoenix.”
The barrage in the live room smelled a familiar smell:
[Come, come, Miss’s Shura Field is finally here! 】
[The female goose was digging the pudding frantically there, hahahaha, she was absolutely frightened by the conversation between Tang and Fini. 】
[My daughter: I don’t know, I don’t know, I’m irresponsible, don’t blame me for fighting. 】
[One thing to say, Tang absolutely did something with the eldest lady in the ruins, and now he dares to challenge Phoenix. 】
[It is said that he and Miss Testai went in holding hands and came out hugging each other, hehe…]
[Am I the only one who thinks the fifth male brother is so miserable? QAQ breakfast is also made together, and the ruins are also entered together. It is obviously double the effort, how could it be—]
[Christian: Are you polite? 】
Probably because the atmosphere at the table was too subtle, Lilith coughed: “That… we haven’t finished discussing the ruins yet.”
Nina sat on the other side of Bi Ming and nodded seriously: “Yes, what is the entrance to the ruins? What kind of sphinx or something…”
“That’s the Sphinx.” Bi Ming pulled down the sleeve of Rafenix under the table, but looked at Tang, “Go to Christian’s side, there’s still room there.”
Probably because those azure blue pupils showed a pleading meaning, Tang Wei’s heart softened when he saw it, and the anger that he had been provoked stopped temporarily.
“Remember to leave your seat to me next time.” He left a sentence and turned away.
Phoenix looked at Qingmei, with a hint of helplessness: “Tstedi, you can’t be too good-tempered with this kind of person, you’ll be punished.”
“He helped me a lot today.” Bi Ming looked back and said softly, “And you won’t have to team up with him until the second stage, don’t worry.”
In the rules of the program group, the second stage is to choose teammates, and the degree of freedom will be much higher.
Phoenix understood her cryptic hints, and finally brought a real smile to her eyebrows: “So who would you choose?”
The eldest glanced at him annoyed, and said nothing.
“Cough cough, Testai,” Nina reminded her, watching her friend and her bamboo horse fall into the two-person world again, “Everyone is waiting for you to continue, what is Sphinx?”
“Uh…” The red-faced girl quickly returned to her senses, only to realize that the whole table was looking at her, “The Sphinx is a legend from ancient Blue Star’s ancient times, with a sphinx and a mouth. A language can only be passed by answering the questions about it.”
Arnold’s silver hair was tied with silk and fell on his shoulders, his cold eyes fixedly looking in Bi Ming’s direction: “How did you know?”
This is also the question in Cecia’s heart.
She knows that in the interstellar era, a lot of knowledge about the earth has been lost, and such a rare legend is definitely not something that such a vase lady can say at will.
“I’m the heir of the Egbert family, do you know that these ancient rumors are strange?” Bi Ming said, “You are all making a fuss”, “Every big family has some ancestral books, you know. “
The Egberts watching the live broadcast: …No, they don’t remember.
But the other guests at the table believed it.
Otherwise, how can I explain that this eldest lady knows so much?
Cecia was still a little unwilling. She always felt that there was something unique to her that was taken away by Bi Ming: “What did the Sphinx… say to you?”
“It’s ‘what are four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs at night’…”
“It’s a person,” Cecia replied as if rushing, “is that right?”
“Hmm,” Bi Ming looked at Tang and Christian with a smile, “Look, I said it was very simple, right? Some guys who can’t even answer this question, should they reflect on themselves?”
The sentries laughed dumbly. They didn’t expect her to hold grudges so much, and they still thought about the teasing they made to her in the morning.
“Do you need me to repeat it again, the great-wise-Miss Testay?” Tang also blinked, looking like he had lost most of his anger.
Sean pretended to vomit from the side, and then sarcastically said, “Someone on our table is finally crazy. Is it just her, still wise?”
Tang met the dark-haired boy’s provocative eyes, and sneered: “Scorpion monster, I have a suggestion for you. If you want to chase someone, sew your mouth first.”
Sean frowned and looked unnaturally at Bi Ming who was watching a good show. The other party didn’t seem to realize the hint in Tang’s words.
“Why are you looking at me?” The eldest lady was still very happy to see her mortal enemy shriveled.
[Egbert is a fool. ] Sean thought to himself, but he directly attacked Tang: “Suggest me? No, I’m afraid of making people sick. After all, there are too many lies, and people won’t believe them when they tell the truth.”
The little intelligence liar Tang’s mouth froze: … the mouth of this military major general is really poisonous.
But forget it, why did he give his “rival in love” a trick?
“Ah yes yes yes, keep your style, I’m optimistic about you.” Tang pursed his lips, then began to lower his head and concentrate on cooking.
Sean, who knew that the other party was eccentric, couldn’t think of any other way to fight in the face of this kind of reply.
There was another strange awkwardness at the table.
“Otherwise, let’s continue talking about the ruins.” Lilith said weakly.
She really didn’t expect Tang to be so fierce today, even attacking two sentinels. If she hadn’t already decided to look for other targets, she would have died of soreness.
“Tstedi, you are really smart,” Nina sighed softly, holding Bi Ming’s hand. “If it were me, I would definitely not be able to come up with an answer within the time limit.”
“Cough, it’s nothing,” Bi Ming curved her lips, “The origin of family learning.”
Arnold glanced at her again, thinking to himself, this word is used very well, it seems that the Eggbert family has a lot of things hidden.
And Cecia took a lot of effort to control her twisted face. Tonight she felt like an invisible person, no matter what she said, no one cared.
Obviously she also knows the Sphinx, why isn’t she the one who went to the ruins today?
…
At the end of the dinner session, Bi Ming and Nina discussed the movie “Back to Ancient Blue Star”.
“I’ve seen it. At that time, the Ministry of Science invited everyone from our research institute to watch it. It was really touching.” Nina looked at Bi Ming, “Do you want to watch it? I have a VIP member of Xingwang Studios and can project for free. .”
“Okay, let’s watch it together.” Bi Ming thought for a while, “I have been in the sun for four hours today, so I can do a steam SPA by the way.”
“You brought spa equipment?” Nina exclaimed, “That thing is huge.”
“I bought the latest portable, it’s only as long as an arm, but it’s pretty functional.” The blonde girl took a piece of her own hair and wrapped it around her fingers, “Look, even the hair is a little dry from the sun. , I remember Lilith saying she brought a sunscreen and whitening device, and I’ll borrow it from her later.”
“What are you talking about?” Lilith seemed to have heard her name and came up, “Baibaiyi?”
“Well, can I borrow it from you?” Bi Ming nodded.
“Of course,” Lilith made a decision after asking about the situation. “Then you all come to my room tonight, and I will accompany you to watch the movie again. Can your spa machine be adjusted to three-person mode?”
“Yes, the latest model has a “girlfriend sharing function”, such as fumigation, repairing damaged cells and promoting metabolism, all of which have the same effect.”
“Great, I have wanted to try this instrument for a long time, and the price of Xingwang is super high.”
On the night when the program group did not release tasks, the girls gathered together to discuss movies and beauty.
Of course, there is a little bit of ranting.
“Testie, your Finney and Don really surprised us tonight.” Nina sighed as she turned on the projection.
“Don’t say that…” Missy coughed, “Phoenix isn’t mine yet.”
“Oh, it’s not—” Lilith turned on the beauty device beside her and helped Bi Ming fix it on her head, “We all understand, don’t argue.”
The eldest lady grabbed the soft pillow on the sofa, her face flushed: “Lilith, how are you now? I thought you would be mad at me today.”
“Angry…” Lilith pondered for a moment, “You mean Tang?”
“Well… I really have nothing to do with him,” Bi Ming said in a sullen voice, “it was he who saved him in the ruins.”
“Don’t belong to me, there’s no need.” Lilith reminded her, “And our show is a love drama, there are many variables. I thought he was kinder at first, but I saw him and Chelsea later. When I interacted with Ya, I felt that he was not suitable for me.”
Lilith thought for a while, and patted Bi Ming on the shoulder again: “And you are so beautiful, and you won’t deliberately use male guests to anger people like Cecia, that’s good.”
She can see clearly that the competition of love variety shows is the charm of getting along with the opposite sex.
If you were a man, it would be hard not to be attracted to this idiot lady.
Marrying can save at least a hundred years of struggle, right?
Ahem, even if you don’t consider it from an economic point of view, simply looking at the face is the first choice.
And she’s not arrogant at all.
Lilith mentioned the story of her partner with Sean several times today, and the eldest lady also gave her advice sincerely, such as now:
“Did Sean catch a wild boar? You must have worked hard.”
“Well, when the wild boar rushed over, I thought I was going to die. Fortunately, he was here.” Lilith said softly.
“Are you okay?” the blonde girl asked worriedly, “Are you hurt?”
“No.” Lilith couldn’t help sighing when she saw that she didn’t pay attention to it at all.
Sean was actually very indifferent along the way, but he stopped the wild boar from rushing towards her and Nina during the hunt, but Lilith deliberately exaggerated this “protection” in front of Bi Ming.
However, this simple eldest lady cared more about their bodies.
“Wait a minute, the pork ribs of the wild boar…” Bi Ming suddenly paused, “Isn’t it the honey grilled pork ribs tonight?”
“Yeah,” Nina nodded, “you don’t know it, do you?”
Bi Ming did not speak, but only showed a thoughtful expression.
Sean is usually a poisonous tongue, but usually he doesn’t provoke him, and he doesn’t make a sound.
I suddenly hate Tang today. Could it be because of that pork ribs… After all, he caught the pig himself.
And then he watched helplessly as she scooped Tang Yan’s ribs—
Well, it is understandable that the young man was annoyed at the dining table.
“Lilith, your inhibitors have all fallen off, remember to put them away.” Nina looked at the pink-haired girl’s messy suitcase and shook her head, “It will be hard to find it then.”
“Anna, no.” Lilith stroked Bi Ming’s blonde hair, “Look, Trisdale’s hair is long and smooth, just fix it and it will look good.”
Nina also came over to touch: “Wow, really, it’s so comfortable to touch, I really envy the future partner of Testai…”
Bi Ming, who felt that she had become a doll, blinked helplessly.
“The eyelashes are also very long and golden!”
“Don’t touch… um…”
The frolic in the room grew louder and louder, so that anyone passing by Lilith’s door could hear Bi Ming’s groaning.
For example, preparing to go back to the room, sentinels with super five senses.
“Idiot Egbert.” Sean lowered his eyes and quickened his pace.
The red-haired man glanced at the door and smiled faintly.
Arnold didn’t stop and walked right past.
As for the other two, shirk responsibility in the living room.
“Very well, whose IQ has dropped?”
“Come on, Chris.”
“Ha ha.”
“At least we have the most information at the moment.”
“Did you ever think about our plan when you took her to pick the ‘moon’ like a childish little boy?”
“Of course, it’s just… When her eyes are on you, it’s hard for you to refuse all her requests.”
“Oh, is she a witch?” Christian smiled, his eyes cold.
“That’s understandable.” Tang sighed and pretended to complain, “Bad witch with blue eyes, you must not take her next time.”
The author has something to say: Phoenix: The Ribs I Made
Sean: I caught the ingredients
Tang: what are you looking at me (biting ribs)
