After the mechanic finished repairing the plane, Xia Yu was still piloting the plane. Bai Xixi, as his deputy, finally brought several experts and Cheng Lili to the port on the east coast to join Gu Chen and others. Of course, there were also the unlucky mechanics and
The original drivers also became prisoners.
After a day of repairs in the military port, Xia Yu treated all the wounded. The conditions of the seriously injured Ma Hongwei, Shao Min and Zhou Jiwen improved significantly. Now, everyone is convinced of Xia Yu, the captain. Bai
Xixi's eyes when looking at Xia Yu often flashed with different colors. I'm afraid only she knew what she was thinking.
Although the special operations team suffered heavy casualties, after all, the main experts were all safe and sound, and the mission was considered completed. One day later, a Chinese destroyer participating in the escort mission in the Gulf of Aden arrived at the port to pick up the people, and everyone was finally going home.
…
Leaning on the side of the ship, Xia Yu looked at the slowly receding coastline, silent. His mentality seemed to have undergone some unprecedented changes recently. The cold-blooded and ruthless killer in the past seemed to be getting further and further away, replaced by
A more real, affectionate and flesh-and-blood person. Xia Yu lit a cigarette and thought of his master, wife, brothers and sisters in America, and Liu Mengyan in the capital, and couldn't help but smile.
Before coming to China, his heart was tense every day, but after living in Haizhou and the capital, his mind relaxed. This time when he went out to perform the mission, he realized many things that he had never thought of before, and he also made acquaintances.
Many friends have gained a lot from it.
Thinking of Liu Mengyan, Xia Yu turned on his phone and wanted to give Liu Mengyan a message. During this period in Africa, he often traveled through deserted places and had to pay attention to confidentiality. The phone must have been turned off. It was already safe at this time.
On the boat, of course I have to chat with my wife.
Just as he was thinking about the news, he saw several scientists from the medical team also coming out of the cabin and discussing something heatedly. They were really a bunch of lunatics. They had just been frightened like that, and now they had devoted themselves to scientific research.
Xia Yu also admired the spirit of these people, so he listened a few more words. It turned out that after research, they had initially confirmed that the mysterious plant under the gold mine was a close relative of vines and ferns.
An endangered plant. Scientists are discussing when to go there again, what equipment to bring when going, what nutrient solutions and soil to maintain. It sounds like they want to transplant the whole plant.
, or cut off part of it and take it back for study.
Xia Yu couldn't help but secretly shake his head. Many people unconsciously use their limited known knowledge to mechanically understand the infinite unknown. Little do they know that the world may not be what they understand at all. If the true name and characteristics of this plant are told
Those scientists may think that Xia Yu is talking nonsense.
In fact, it can be said that Xuanshui Blood Snake Vine is a close relative of vines and ferns. At least according to the current botanical classification, it can be regarded as a more reasonable explanation. I just want to say that it is a close relative of vines and ferns.
Transplanting it may be a bit troublesome. According to Xiao Hei, Xuanshui Blood Snake Vine is a dangerous plant. Usually
It is used to guard important entrance passages. Near the abandoned gold mine, there may be important tombs or caves where ancient powers practiced. It seems that I should go to that gold mine as soon as possible and explore it carefully.
Fan, at least go before these scientists, lest they do whatever they want and completely destroy the place...
Xia Yu was thinking about when he would come to Africa again. Bai Xixi came over lightly and asked, "Captain, what are you thinking about here?"
"I said I was practicing cultivation, do you believe it?"
"Believe it..." Bai Xixi nodded, "You are already at the third level of the Xiantian realm at a young age. You must have a unique cultivation method. To be honest, I didn't recognize you as the captain at first because your strength was too low.
, I didn’t expect that you were actually pretending!”
"It's just a small skill..." Xia Yu sighed, "Speaking of which, I, the captain, neglected my duty and did not bring everyone back."
"Then I can't blame you!" Bai Xixi said immediately, "Those superpowers and that lunatic were all emergencies, and the General Staff didn't expect them at all, otherwise they shouldn't have just sent us here. In fact,
After such a big change, we can still bring important experts back. Not only have you not failed in your duty, you have also made a great contribution!"
"Thank you..." Xia Yu smiled and suddenly looked at Bai Xixi with a strange look on his face, "It seems like this is the first time I hear you praise me? What an honor!"
"I..." A blush flashed across Bai Xixi's face, "I didn't praise you! I just spoke truthfully!"
Xia Yu was silent for a while and said, "I have heard about your six ancient sects for a long time. You rarely appear in the world. I didn't expect that you are actually serving the country."
"It's not about effectiveness..." Bai Xixi said, "I don't know about other sects, but our Zhenyuan Sect also has people walking around in the secular world, but they are very low-key. We work for the country. Firstly,
Because of the responsibility to protect China, and secondly for the purpose of training, if you always stay in the sect and practice, it will be difficult to improve your state of mind."
Xia Yu nodded. He understood this very well, "Can you tell me about your six major sects?"
"There's nothing to say..." Bai Xixi trimmed her head and leaned on the side of the ship, "The so-called six major sects are not because we are stronger than other sects... although we are indeed stronger than other sects.
They are strong, but they are not called the six major sects for this reason."
"Oh?" Xia Yu became interested, "What's the reason? Is it because your sect has a long history?"
"Yes." Bai Xixi said with some pride, "Of our six major sects, the shortest one has a heritage of two thousand years, and the oldest one, like the Kunlun sect, has a history of I don't know how many years. Moreover,
It’s not that the history of the sect can be traced back thousands of years, but that the inheritance within the sect has never been interrupted during such a long period of time. This is why we are called the six major sects.”
Xia Yu nodded and was a little surprised. Bai Xixi meant that no matter what the secular world is like, and no matter whether there are any top masters in their sect, the sect's skills, classics, magic weapons, and even portals may
Dongtian has been continuously passed down for thousands of years. This is the true foundation of the six major sects.
