Another night spent in SHIELD's hospital bed, Xu Shangqi fell asleep with fear and confusion. He thought that in today's dream, he would still dream of his distant hometown.
混
But in the hazy moment, he heard someone calling his name.
"Xu Shangqi! Xu Shangqi! Come out quickly, Xu Shangqi, the school bus is leaving."
Even though what the other party said was not Chinese, or it was not any language in the world but just a thought, Xu Shangqi was still awakened by the memory of catching the school bus in high school in his previous life.
He suddenly woke up and instinctively shouted: "Wait, don't leave yet, I'll get a bun!"
But the next second, he paused in place again, and the chaotic memories in his mind reminded him that he was no longer in the original world.
Thinking of his mother who got up an hour early to make breakfast every day when he was in high school so that he could catch the school bus smoothly, Xu Shangqi felt unspeakable sadness.
Even if they are separated by a city or a province, a wanderer who is away from home will feel homesick, let alone a world apart?
Even if you are a wanderer, there will be a day when you can go home for vacation and see your relatives again, and Xu Shangqi knows that even in novels, there are not many examples of time-travelers being able to go home again.
If there are countless parallel universes in the Marvel Universe, then the same must be true for other worlds. How could he find the one with his mother in the vast sea of worlds?
Just when Xu Shangqi was getting more and more sad, he heard the calm and gentle girl calling his name: "Xu Shangqi... Xu Shangqi! Where did this boy named Xu Shangqi go? Who is that one?
, that crew member from the underworld, come over and have a look, did I pronounce it wrong?"
Xu Shangqi heard that the voice seemed to come from behind him, so he instinctively turned around to see who was shouting there.
But as soon as he turned around, a huge shadow engulfed him. Xu Shangqi was so frightened that he fell to the ground. He raised his head and stared dumbfounded at the huge collision angle that appeared above his head.
It was a huge and incredible ship, and what was even more incredible was that a female hippopotamus was standing on the bow of the ship looking at him.
Wait, a hippopotamus standing on two legs?
"So you are here." The hippopotamus goddess, who was standing on both feet and wearing various complicated ornaments on her neck and wrists, jumped from the bow of the boat, pulled up Xu Shangqi who was lying on the ground, and said
: "What's the matter with you? Why didn't you reply when I called you? You almost missed the school bus, did you know?"
"School bus? What school bus?" Xu Shangqi looked confused.
"Hey, goddess, can you sail the boat quickly? I'm anxious to catch up on my homework!" A younger female voice came from the bow of the boat. Xu Shangqi looked up and saw a head of green hair.
"Don't worry, little Lorna, you go to my office in the cabin. There is a table there. You can do your homework there. It doesn't matter if you can't finish it. You can have a few more fights with your dad to consolidate what you have learned.
."
Lorna? Who is Lorna?
Xu Shangqi didn't react at all. He was not very sensitive to English names. Without a surname, this English name sounded like the name of a small animal that appears in a children's picture book.
With a "swish", another head poked out from the edge of the boat and shouted: "Please, goddess, let's sail the boat quickly, I can't beat Magneto!"
"Pietro, shut up! If you hadn't made a mistake in the homework you were going to write yesterday, would we have to do it again this morning?"
"I said I wouldn't write essay questions, but you insist on writing them, and you actually blame me?!"
As soon as the name Pietro came out, Xu Shangqi reacted a little. He whispered: "Quicksilver, Polaris? Magneto?... Mutants, how could I dream of mutants?"
That's right, Xu Shangqi felt that he must be dreaming now. If he wasn't in a dream, how could there be such a hippo with its feet on the ground and looking at him with a loving face?
Xu Shangqi felt that his imagination was really good. He could actually see the brilliance of motherhood from the face of a hippopotamus?
The hippopotamus goddess patted Xu Shangqi on the back and said: "Get on the boat quickly, child, otherwise we will be late."
Xu Shangqi shrugged and simply followed behind the hippopotamus goddess. He thought, it was just a dream anyway, no matter how bizarre it was, there would always be a time to wake up.
Rather, these bizarre scenes in dreams are rare moments of relaxation. After all, when you wake up, you still have to face the beginning of hell.
Xu Shangqi climbed onto the boat along the ladder, and then saw the Polar Star siblings standing next to the rope ladder, looking at him from left to right.
"Hello." Xu Shangqi greeted.
Polaris and Pietro were stunned at the same time, looking at Xu Shangqi as if they were aliens. Polaris opened his mouth and said, "Do you know me?"
"Ah, I don't recognize you, what's wrong?"
"No, it's okay."
Polaris shook his head and looked at Pietro. Pietro tilted his head and shrugged. The two looked at Shang Qi's back following the hippopotamus goddess. Pietro lowered his voice and said, "I bet, two knots."
After class, he will walk around you."
Polaris snorted coldly, strode towards the cabin, and said: "I guess there must be only one desk in the office. If I finish my homework, I will complain to the teacher and say you didn't do your homework!"
"Hey, how could you do this?...Don't compete with me for the table!"
Xu Shangqi followed the Hippo Goddess all the way in. He found that there were quite a lot of people on the boat, and there were a few figures who looked a bit familiar. They seemed to be some superheroes without uniforms, but because they were not wearing uniforms
, so Xu Shangqi couldn’t recognize any of them.
They are all wearing a typical British uniform. To put it bluntly, they are the boarding school magic robes in "Harry Potter", but they are not actually the original magic robes in "Harry Potter". In reality, the British
They also wear this in boarding schools.
Fortunately, they didn't hold wands in their hands, Xu Shangqi thought, otherwise he would really be involved in "Harry Potter".
Xu Shangqi suspected that he might have had such a dream because he saw the short stick that looked like a wand in the hands of Natasha and the agents before, so he had such a dream, just like in "Harry Potter"
You can go to school by boat just like in the "Special" world. Although this boat is a bit bigger, the overall process is correct.
At this time, the hippopotamus goddess had taken him to the bottom of the cabin, turned a corner, and then walked into a room.
As soon as he walked into the room, Xu Shangqi was almost scared to the point of sitting on the ground, because there was a figure that looked like Bai Wuchang sitting behind the desk, with a long red tongue dragging on the ground.
"ah!!!!"
Xu Shangqi let out a scream. You know, as a Chinese, seeing this kind of thing in a dream is much scarier than a talking hippopotamus.
What happened next was even more confusing to him. The Hippo Goddess stepped forward and shook hands with Bai Wuchang, and said: "Mr. Xie, this study tour and exchange trip between the two major gods has ended successfully.
Thank you for your hard work, I will send you back after I send these little guys to school."
"You're too polite, ma'am." Bai Wuchang's dragging red tongue did not affect his words at all: "The Egyptian pantheon and the Chinese Buddhist pantheon have both a long history, and the underworld and the underworld have been friendly for generations. This exchange has made
Both of us have benefited a lot...Oh, it seems you have a new student coming, so I won't disturb you."
The hippopotamus goddess smiled and said, "Please."
Xu Shangqi was sure that he was dreaming.
He was pushed by the hippo goddess in a daze to sit behind the table where Bai Wuchang originally sat, and began to fill in a lot of forms.
As he was filling it out, Xu Shangqi felt that something was wrong. Is this form a little too real? Why are there physics questions?
Xu Shangqi looked at the test questions at the end of the form. He pointed at them and asked the Hippo Goddess, "Are these questions what I want to complete here?"
"Of course, this is to test which grade you will be assigned to."
"Okay, I understand all this, but what is this 'overview of the energy flow theory of magic array'?"
"That's to test magic theories. Do you know magic?"
Xu Shangqi opened his mouth. The hippopotamus goddess's too natural tone made him feel that it was not good for him to say no, but he was not used to lying, so he could only shake his head and said: "I can't.
"洷
"Oh, it doesn't matter. Just leave it blank and pick the questions you know how to answer."
Xu Shangqi thought for a while, this dream was already ridiculous, so what was the point of answering exam questions in a dream?
So, he began to concentrate on answering the questions. The hippopotamus goddess was organizing the books on the shelf nearby, but looking at Xu Shangqi's young face, she couldn't help but ask: "How old are you this year? Are you still studying?"
"Theoretically, I'm 22 this year, but I'm actually not sure." Xu Shangqi was referring to the age of his body. Judging from the body shape, Xu Shangqi felt that this body might be younger, maybe he had just arrived.
20.
"Oh, so you just graduated from college. Which university did you go to? In which state?"
Xu Shangqi felt that he was a little unable to answer, but he thought about it again. It was just a dream anyway, and it didn't matter to be honest, so he said: "Have you heard of the university I studied in China, Tongji University?"
"I seem to have an impression that one of my son's girlfriends seems to have graduated from that university." The hippopotamus goddess nodded, and then said: "Your grades must be very good, right? I rarely see anyone taking the entrance exam.
I can answer so many questions at that time."
"It's not bad." Xu Shangqi gave a very Chinese-style humble answer, and said: "The main reason is that my grade point is pretty good, almost in the top 5% of my grade."
"Oh my God." The hippopotamus goddess exclaimed, "Then you are too good!"
Xu Shangqi showed an embarrassed smile and said: "Actually, it is mainly for the sake of postgraduate protection and scholarship."
"Then are you a graduate student at this school?"
"I'm not a graduate student." Xu Shangqi shook his head and said, "Because I want to go out to work early. I actually don't like studying very much."
"Stop talking nonsense, kid." The hippopotamus goddess came to the table with a glass of water, gently placed the glass on the table, and said: "You are a good student, Professor Charles will definitely like you very much."
Xu Shangqi felt that he seemed to hear a familiar name, but he was not sure, and there were still many test papers that he had not finished answering, so he picked up the cup and took a sip of water and began to answer the questions.
At some point, the cut fruit was served, and Xu Shangqi seemed to be back in high school, reading the questions while eating the fruit cut by his mother.
When he finished all the questions and suddenly came to his senses, he turned to look at the hippo goddess who was sitting next to him and dozing with her head propped up.
Sensing his gaze, the Hippo Goddess woke up with a start. She screamed in surprise when she saw the full test paper and touched Xu Shangqi's head.
This can be considered a sweet dream, Xu Shangqi thought.
