I kept talking to my mother until the ambulance came, and then I ended the call.
Putting down his phone and picking up the brass badge, Chen Feng couldn't help but think of the telepathy that he suddenly had just now. If he had this ability because he absorbed the strange energy contained in it, then this thing is really a
Baby.
The energy contained in this treasure is very powerful and sufficient. Chen Feng absorbed it for about half an hour before, but now he still cannot sense how long it can be absorbed by him. In short, it is very sufficient, and it even feels faintly better than what Chen Feng absorbed before.
There are still enough oracle bones.
This made Chen Feng feel very strange. After all, the oracle bones have a history of thousands of years, and this badge is only a hundred or two hundred years old at most.
In terms of historical value and commemorative value, this brass badge is completely incomparable to the tortoise shell of Oracle.
However, Chen Feng thought about it carefully and realized that it might have been too long and the energy contained in the Oracle had been lost more. On the contrary, the Bald Eagle emblem had a short history and the energy lost was much less.
"Are you still looking at this badge?"
After taking a shower, Brina came out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe.
After Chen Feng glanced at her, he nodded and said, "Yes, I am very curious about the origin of this badge. I plan to check it out."
With that said, Chen Feng picked up his phone and planned to use the search engine's photo recognition function to search for it, but the results found were only similar items, and there were no search results for such badges.
I changed several search engines but still got the same result, so I had to give up.
"Can't you recognize it?" Brina came over and asked.
After Chen Feng nodded, she said, "I'll take a few photos and go to the school to check them for you on Monday."
Of course Chen Feng did not refuse and asked her to take a few photos of the badge with her cell phone.
Next, Chen Feng temporarily put away the badge, chatted with Brina for a while, waited for her to change clothes, and went downstairs to the hotel restaurant for dinner.
After dinner, Chen Feng rejected Brina's suggestion to go shopping and took her directly back to the hotel room.
After a night of silence, the next morning, Chen Feng and Brina came out of the hotel with their luggage bags.
He has already checked out and decided to go back to San Diego today.
Originally, Brina was going to drive him there in person, but she had classes tomorrow morning on Monday, so it would be a hassle to go back and forth.
Therefore, Chen Feng booked an online car-hailing service last night.
The two of them were waiting on the side of the road in front of the hotel for the ride-hailing car to arrive. Brina asked with a reluctant look on her face: "Are you sure you'll still be in San Diego next weekend?"
"It should still be there. Anyway, let's talk about it then. Aren't there still a few days left?"
Chen Feng had answered this question several times, but she asked again, and Chen Feng could only answer it again.
Brina wanted to say something else, but the online car-hailing car had already arrived at the appointed time and stopped in front of them. The driver was a middle-aged white man with a beard.
After putting the luggage in the trunk, he walked to the back seat door and was about to open the door when Brina suddenly came over and hugged him tightly. Without saying a word, she just buried her head in his arms.
When Chen Feng saw her like this, he felt helpless. Of course he could tell that Brina was truly attracted to him, and he didn't know where his charm came from.
Originally, they both made an appointment just for fun, but once they touched it, they both felt inseparable, especially for Brynna.
When she was in Xiuzhou, she made an agreement with Chen Feng, and the special relationship between them ended after she left Xiuzhou.
As a result, until now, in the past few months, even though they have traveled across oceans and seas, the special relationship between the two has not been broken. Instead, it feels like old wine. The longer the time goes by, the closer the relationship between the two becomes, especially
For Brynna.
Of course she also knew that Chen Feng had a girlfriend, and she was very romantic. She never thought about having a relationship with Chen Feng at first.
But people are such complicated animals. The more you think about something, the result is often the opposite. She unknowingly began to appreciate Chen Feng more and more, and then she liked him more and more, and now she feels a little in love with Chen Feng.
Fuck him.
She didn't deliberately suppress her feelings. After all, Chen Feng wasn't married yet, and it was our choice. Why should she suppress her love for him?
"Okay, we should be able to meet in a few days. There's no need to be so reluctant to leave."
Chen Feng patted her back gently and pushed her away.
The online ride-hailing driver also shouted from inside: "Sir, can you leave?"
Chen Feng responded: "Okay, let's leave now."
Seeing this, Brina couldn't stop Chen Feng anymore. She could only stand on tiptoes and kissed him quickly, then waved to him and said, "Call me when you get there."
After Chen Feng made an OK gesture to her, he opened the car door and got in.
The car started immediately. Through the car window, Chen Feng saw Brina standing on the side of the road waving goodbye. He waved to her again, and then the car turned around. After accelerating, she was no longer visible.
After the car drove for more than ten minutes, neither Chen Feng nor the online ride-hailing driver spoke.
It wasn't until the car drove out of the city that the online ride-hailing driver took the initiative and said, "Sir, you and your partner have a really good relationship. She seems really reluctant to let you go. Is she your girlfriend or your wife?"
Chen Feng didn't want to respond, but seeing that he looked envious, he replied: "Girlfriend."
"That's great. Your girlfriend is very beautiful."
"Thank you for the compliment."
Probably the online ride-hailing driver also saw that Chen Feng didn't want to talk, so after saying a few simple words, he stopped talking.
This is not much different from that in China. After all, it is an online car-hailing service, not a taxi. The service attitude is much better, so I am afraid of negative reviews from customers.
So, for the next nearly an hour of travel, the car remained quiet.
Until the driver received a call. After he answered it using Bluetooth, he said to Chen Feng with some embarrassment: "Sir, I'm sorry, I have a friend of a friend in a small town ahead. He happens to be going to San Diego. Can I help you?"
Is she getting a ride?"
According to the regulations of online car-hailing, if there is no carpooling, Chen Feng, as the only passenger, has the right to refuse the driver to add another person midway.
Chen Feng just didn’t want to carpool with others, so he specifically chose an online car-hailing service for just one person last night.
As for what the other party said about friends of friends, they definitely didn't believe it. It was nothing more than an excuse to make extra money along the way.
"Since I have prepaid for one person's exclusive service, you should only carry me as agreed."
Chen Feng's words were obviously a rejection.
The driver said helplessly: "How about I refund half of the money to you privately? This is a request from a very good friend of mine, who is also her good friend."
When Chen Feng heard it was "she" instead of "he", he understood somewhat.
And seeing that the other party was actually willing to refund half of the money to him, it didn't look like he was making extra money.
Therefore, Chen Feng did not refuse this time. He just said, "Let's wait until we meet the person at the place."
"Okay, sir, she is a lady and she is on a long journey. It should be more lively with her on the bus. You can talk to her about travel and local scenery. She has been to many places."
"Well, if what you said is true, it doesn't matter if you add her, and you don't need to refund the money."
"Thank you very much. Everything I said is true."
Ten minutes later, the car arrived outside a small town. There was a tall woman with chestnut hair standing on the side of the road. After getting closer, she could see clearly that the woman was wearing a peaked cap, a high-collared jacket, jeans, and a bag at her feet.
A big, big backpack.
He is about thirty years old, good-looking, with wheat-colored skin and brown eyes.
One look at her somewhat travel-worn appearance, and you can tell that she is a genuine backpacker.
"Is it Molly?"
The driver stopped the car in front of the female backpacker, lowered the window and shouted to her.
"Yes, are you White?" the female backpacker responded, bending down.
"Yes, it's nice to see you. I've often heard Valina talk about you before, but I've never seen you."
"Me too, haha, I'm glad to see you. I'm sorry to bother you this time. I've been waiting here for more than half an hour and I still haven't received a car to take me to San Diego, so I posted a complaint on the status quo,
As a result, Valina saw it, and then she contacted me and said that you were going to San Diego."
"Yeah, it's really a coincidence. I also posted a message more than an hour ago, saying that I would take guests to San Diego today. Okay, you can get in the car first. I will help you carry your luggage."
The driver, White, got out of the car enthusiastically and went over to carry her big backpack.
"Okay, I'll trouble you." Molly didn't refuse.
The big backpack looked very heavy. Even White, a middle-aged man, found it difficult to lift it up. The weight was obviously beyond his expectation. He couldn't help but ask: "What on earth do you have in it?"
Something? It’s quite heavy.”
Molly answered: "There are two rocks that I happened to find on the mountain here. They are very beautiful and I like them very much, so I put them in my backpack."
"It's no wonder." White mumbled softly and put the backpack in the trunk.
At this time, Molly opened the rear door and sat in. She greeted Chen Feng with a natural smile: "Hello, my name is Molly. I'm sorry to trouble you this time. Thank you for agreeing to give me a ride."
Chen Feng had a good impression of the female backpacker. He nodded slightly and said, "You're welcome to drop by."
"Anyway, excuse me, this is a small gift from me. I hope you can accept it."
As she spoke, she took out two brass metal badges from her pocket, both of the same size and style, both with a human face and a sun symbol about ten centimeters in diameter.
What surprised Chen Feng was that these two badges actually contained the kind of life energy that Chen Feng needed. Although it was relatively small, only enough for him to suck for about ten minutes, it was still somewhat magical to Chen Feng.
Chen Feng easily took one of the pieces that was handed over to him, and of course handed the other piece to the driver White who just got into the car.
"This is a handicraft I bought in Mexico. It's not valuable. Please accept it." Molly explained briefly.
"Thank you then." White accepted it unceremoniously.
As for Chen Feng, of course, he was no exception. After saying thank you, he accepted it.
When the car restarted, White began to chat with Molly all over the place.
Molly has indeed been to many places. She talks about the customs and customs of some places very clearly, and her voice is nice and funny. At least she often makes the driver White laugh out loud. Chen Feng is worried that he laughs too much and turns the car over.
Drive to the cliff.
Therefore, for his own safety, Chen Feng also joined the chat and deliberately brought the topic to the Dragon Kingdom.
Not to mention, this female backpacker has actually been to the Dragon Kingdom, not only the capital and the magical capital, but also Xiuzhou.
Then, Chen Feng said that he now lives in Xiuzhou.
Molly immediately said happily: "Then I really envy you. I have been to three cities in Longguo, but the one that impressed me the most is Xiuzhou. The climate and scenery are very good, and it is very suitable for living.
"Last year, I stayed there for half a month and didn't want to leave. I almost put my global travel plan on hold."
"You are discerning. Xiuzhou can be said to be the most livable city in our country."
…
The two chatted about Xiuzhou for a long time, but the driver, White, couldn't get in the conversation at all because he had never been to Long Country and knew nothing about Xiuzhou.
Of course, as an online ride-hailing driver, he couldn't interrupt the conversation between the two of them, so he could only concentrate on driving.
This is the result Chen Feng wants.
I have to admit that it is a great pleasure to chat with a well-informed and cultured woman like Molly. The more Chen Feng chatted with her, the more speculative they became. Later, they talked about badges. First, the Mexican Sun badge she just gave her. She said it was
I purchased it from a sun temple in Mexico, which is a building from the Mayan civilization era.
Then, she told Chen Feng some history of the Mayan civilization.
After that, Chen Feng took out the brass badge he just bought yesterday, handed it to her, and asked: "I went to the flea market yesterday and bought a badge. You go to many places, you can see it."
Where did it come from?”
Molly took the badge, looked at it carefully for a while, and then thought about it for a while, then said: "I seem to have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while."
Chen Feng was not too disappointed with this. After all, he just wanted to give it a try and didn't have high hopes.
"Forget it if you can't remember."
Chen Feng reached out to take back the badge, but Molly retracted her hand, immediately picked it up again and looked at it, and said, "I'll take a closer look, maybe I can remember it."
When Chen Feng saw this, he asked her to take another look.
Molly was silent for a while while holding the badge. After a while, the driver White couldn't help but ask: "What kind of badge? Maybe I can recognize it."
As soon as she finished speaking, Molly suddenly raised her voice and said, "I remembered it. I seemed to have seen it in a historical monograph a long time ago. It was a historical research book about the Westward Expansion Movement.
.I didn’t look very carefully at the time, but this badge seemed to have appeared in a certain chapter, and it seemed to be a medal issued to bounty hunters by a certain local government.”
"Bounty hunter's medal?" Chen Feng was very surprised.
He really didn't expect that this medal was actually related to bounty hunters, and they were bounty hunters during the Westward Expansion Movement. This was too biased.
However, Chen Feng had also studied some American history and knew that the bounty hunter system was established during the Westward Expansion to hunt down fugitives.
The so-called fugitives are not only criminals wanted by the police and local governments, but also black slaves who escaped.
The bounty hunters of that period often played the role of robbers and escorts.
I’m not saying there aren’t any good people in there, but there are definitely very few.
Therefore, the original recipient of this medal was most likely a murderer.
