After dinner, the three of them sat at the table and chatted. Qi Tian talked about many interesting things he had experienced after leaving Kelga two years ago. Some of the things he had told Carlos before, and Carlos nodded in agreement.
During the chat, Carlos learned that Qi Tian woke up in a certain spiritual stone mine seven or eight years ago. He seemed to be the person who was suspected of "travelling" in the book.
When I came to this era, there were indeed many things that were difficult to understand at first, but I gradually got used to them.
Qitian has become more and more prosperous in this era. Now he is a traveling merchant traveling around the world, selling seeds, fruits, meat, accessories and supplying spiritual stones picked on the road.
Qitian doesn't need money, she mainly needs to exchange for daily necessities, most of which she can find in the desert and green forests.
Antonio was originally a young man from the upper class. He liked to study handicrafts and the culture of different regions, and came to the lower class to experience life.
Antonio's parents are the main suppliers of spiritual stones to Kelga. Without them, Kelga would be paralyzed.
Carlos ate the snacks Antonio gave him, stuffed them into his mouth one by one, and chewed: "They are really better than the other."
Carlos quickly fell asleep. Qitian and Antonio waited until Carlos fell asleep and looked at each other before leaving the room together.
There is a row of chairs on the rooftop, which are fixed to the ground and cannot be moved. Two people sit on the chairs.
When Antonio turned to look at Qi Tian, he saw that the other party had taken out the pendant. Both of them were a little curious about the pendant, but in the evening Antonio thought that Qi Tian had figured it out and thought that Qi Tian wanted to send it to him for collection.
Qi Tian said, "I don't think it is simple. Look at this."
The pendant was in the shape of a disc, with an opening and closing slit on the side. Qi Tian pressed the slit and opened it. The two saw a golden sculptured artwork inside the disc. The main shape was an eye, with an eyebrow-like shape above it.
curve, with a tear-like curve extending from the bottom, more like some kind of totem.
Antonio was stunned when he saw the appearance of the ornament: "Eye of Horus? Did you really dig up someone else's tomb?"
"I'm not that evil. The tomb was originally empty, so I picked up the pendant after it fell on the ground. I didn't do anything else. Oh, and I also took pictures."
Horus is the patron saint of the pharaohs in Egyptian mythology, and is also a symbol of royal power. Many pharaohs' tombs will have totems of the Eye of Horus, so Antonio blurted out that Qi Tian had robbed the tomb.
Antonio thought for a moment and then asked: "So you found Egyptian things in a Chinese's tomb and you think there is a reason for this? What reason? Do you think he believes in ancient Egypt? If that's the case... Chinese people have really mixed beliefs.
"
While Qi Tian was thinking, Antonio found a dent on the corner of the Eye of Horus, like a bump.
"Why is there a gap here? How did it get damaged?"
Qi Tian followed Antonio's finger and saw the gap: "Oh, it's not a knock."
"Then how?"
"I bit it."
"...Stop testing the purity with your teeth, okay?" Qi Tian's ordinary words left Antonio speechless.
"I don't have any equipment, so I can only do this."
"If you take a bite of it, it will destroy the exquisiteness of the craft. It would be better if you plan to melt it and recast it. It is better not to touch something that seems to be old... and you can't accurately measure the purity if you take a bite.
If a person is born more like a monster than me, I won’t even bite this thing.”
"One bite from the monster will make this thing useless. My teeth are not as good as yours."
"...That's called bite force, and adult monsters can control it just like animals. You're biased."
The next morning, Qi Tian removed the wooden board in front of the window to block the light. Carlos's eyes were pierced by the sunlight. He turned over uncomfortably and covered himself with a blanket. He made a whining sound, and his whole body showed that he didn't want to get up.
.
"It's time to have breakfast——"
"Oh... don't... let me sleep for a while..."
Qi Tian yelled, slapped and shook her beside Carlos, but Carlos turned a deaf ear and knocked Qi Tian's hand off with a wave of his hand and continued to sleep. At this moment, the hustle and bustle of the world had nothing to do with her.
Antonio had already dressed and tidied up and appeared at the door of the two women's rooms. When he peeked in, he found that only Qi Tian had gotten up and tidied up, while Carlos was still lying on the bed, deaf to what was going on.
"Staying in bed?" Antonio saw the clue.
Qi Tian supported his waist, sighed helplessly, and looked back at Antonio: "You want to go to the store now?"
"That's not necessary. There aren't many customers in a shop like this on the lower floor. I'll be fine if I go there later. Do you want breakfast? I steamed dumplings."
"Dumplings? Did you make them?"
"My mother asked someone to deliver them, and there are still a few bags, about forty, which should be enough for the three of us."
"Mrs. Silver did it? That's enough, maybe more."
The Seaver family all have strange hobbies. Their son Antonio likes to study ancient civilizations, his wife Cortasha is passionate about food, and Mr. Charwell collects wine bottle caps and sculptures in his spare time.
When Qi Tian first met Antonio two years ago, Cortasha was studying Chinese food. When Qi Tian was invited to his home, Cortasha made her first all-Chinese banquet in her life. The staple food was mushroom stuffing.
The fried dumplings have so much stuffing that they can’t even fit into one bite.
Now when the matter was brought up again, as Qi Tian expected, Antonio told her that Tasha had been studying Chinese food for two and a half years and still hadn't cooked them all.
"Just don't make dark dishes." Qi Tian followed Antonio to serve the dumplings. Thinking that nothing would happen, he let Carlos, who was sleeping deeply, continue to sleep.
When the two came back, they brought three pots of steamed dumplings, a plate of dipping sauce and three pairs of chopsticks. Before they even saw the room, they heard Carlos shouting: "Ghost!!!"
The two rushed into the room anxiously and saw Carlos sitting up in fright, leaning his back against the inner wall and not daring to move. Opposite Carlos was a short-haired woman with a fox tail and ears.
The short-haired woman herself was startled by Carlos's shouting and shouted angrily: "I've stopped doing dirty work a long time ago. Why are you shouting?!"
Antonio put down the things in his hands, walked over and shouted: "Sister Su, is it so early?"
Xiao Su turned around and glanced at Qi Tian, who was putting down his things not far away, and then looked at Antonio who was nearby: "Ah, yes, I saw a car I have never seen before downstairs, and it feels like it has something to do with you.
Let’s take a look. It turned out to be…two humans?”
Qi Tian looked at Xiao Su and approached slowly with confusion. Antonio introduced to Xiao Su: "Sister Xiao Su, this is the Qi Tian I mentioned before, Fang Qitian, and the person on the bed is her friend Carlos.
"
"Qi Tian? Weird name." Xiao Su raised her eyebrows with disdain, "My surname is Su, Su Daji. I am originally from Asia and China. When I was a soul, I did Black and White Wuchang. This girl can't even call me ghost.
Difference."
Qi Tian continued to look at Xiao Su, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly realized: "Oh! You are the one who was promoted to immortal by Hua Ling and still stayed in the underworld!"
Xiao Su was stunned, frowned and looked at Qi Tian: "You... know Hua Ling? You don't look like a god..."
Carlos, who was huddled on the bed, said weakly: "Who is Hua Ling?"
Qi Tian waved his hand: "It's been so long that you may not remember. Anyway, we met before when you were a ghost sergeant, and we were together with Yu Qiuming and Zhu Jiuyin."
Xiao Su really didn't remember it, but Qi Tian could name Yu Qiuming and Zhu Jiuyin, so he must have really experienced it.
"But I remember you said that you have to wait until you understand Hua Ling before you come out of the underworld. Have you... figured it out?"
"How is it possible? I just don't understand why humans who pursue desires become desireless."
"No desires or desires?" This chapter has been completed!
