Xiaoyu put on an orange sweater after washing up and asked while eating breakfast.
What can I say about her tone... It's a bit complicated, as if she's deliberately careful or deliberately relaxed. In short, people can hear the problem immediately.
Dad was a little silent. Only Chen Long was eating breakfast more normally and was not so sensitive to the awkward atmosphere.
Luo Qing chewed the steamed dumplings, swallowed the food in his mouth with a sip of soy milk, and said with a gentle smile on his face: "I don't know many people in America. I came here when I thought of antiques."

Xiaoyu nodded and said nothing more. The scene became quiet for a while, and everyone ate in silence.
Time passed slowly, and Chen Long noticed something was wrong. He asked doubtfully: "What's wrong with you? You don't feel high anymore?"
"I don't know. I'm going to ask Uncle Long to talk about some archaeological knowledge later. After listening to your introduction the day before yesterday, I am very interested in this aspect." Luo Qing's smile is still gentle, making people easy to get close to.
"Of course it's no problem. Just in time, I'm going to the university to do ancient Chinese translation, and I can take you with me." Chen Long agreed happily.
This kind of thing is not private. If there happens to be a child who is interested, he is also willing to satisfy the child's interest.
"Then thank you, Uncle Long." Luo Qing said happily, and asked Xiaoyu: "Today is not the weekend, does Xiaoyu have no class?"
Xiaoyu took a bite of the bun, yawned and said, "The class time here is from nine to two in the afternoon, and it's still early."
"Um... I don't know much about it. Sorry, I'll try to come in the afternoon next time." Luo Qing scratched his head. He really didn't know about this. It's really amazing that there is a school that ends so early.
Sure enough, many things are different depending on the culture.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's not important anyway..." Xiaoyu waved her hands helplessly, subconsciously comforting her.
"Xiaoyu!" Chen Long frowned: "This is your second day of class. You can't sleep, do you hear? You want to leave a good impression on the teacher and classmates, you can't..."
"Okay, okay...I got it." Xiaoyu quickly interrupted Chen Long's long speech. After finishing breakfast in two or three mouthfuls, she turned on the TV and switched to her favorite channel.
Chen Long was a little helpless. He had no experience in teaching children. He turned around and saw the smiling Luo Qing, and his mood immediately improved.
Alas, children from other families are just compared to each other. Why is Luo Qing so polite? He looks very tutored.
Breakfast was finished quickly, and just as Luo Qing and Chen Long were preparing to go out, their father's voice came over.
"Luo Qing..."
Luo Qing and Chen Long, who had already walked to the door, paused. Xiaoyu also cast her gaze over. Having experienced two ninja attacks, she also wanted to know what her father was thinking now.
"What's wrong, dad?" Luo Qing turned around, with a smile still on his face.
"Did you... come into contact with something unclean?" Dad narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Luo Qing with his cloudy eyes: "Your deadline has been advanced a little earlier."
Luo Qing's pupils shrank, but his smile was still gentle: "Dad, I don't quite understand what you mean."
The old man stared at Luo Qing closely. He looked up for a long time, waved his hand, stood up and walked towards the magic room.
No black energy creature can escape the detection of justice magic. If there is a black energy creature, he will never be able to get in, and he can't see anything... He doesn't think anyone in the world can escape his eyes, even if it is
Neither can Master.
Therefore, some of the doubts that had just arisen in him disappeared as soon as he asked and answered them.
Maybe...there has been some change in this boy? There are still two and a half months left, and he needs to work a little extra to try to ensure the safety of this boy.
Luo Qing bowed slightly, turned around and followed Chen Long out of his father's antique store, with a gentle smile on his face.
"Xiaoyu, help Dad get a cup of coffee. Dad needs to wake up..."
The words behind him that the energy in his body was not as strong as before gradually became smaller, and Luo Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that the balance is not completely one-sided.
"Don't mind, Dad's mental state has not been very good recently." Chen Long was a little embarrassed. This was the second time he cursed someone. It was indeed not good. The hospital's plan should be put on the agenda.
The two got into a taxi and headed to the campus. Luo Qing said nonchalantly: "I know Uncle Long, you are an old man. It's not strange. You should pay more attention to your health."
"It's good if you understand." Chen Long nodded happily.
The two stopped discussing, and soon a university in San Francisco came into view. This was still new to Luo Qing, as he seemed... to have never been to university.
The vehicle stopped at the school gate, and there were people waiting for them outside.
In the archaeological world, Chen Long's reputation is pretty good, at least he is among the top people.
While talking and laughing, the group came to a laboratory.
The instruments here are very precise, and the people from the school didn't mean to check anything, so they just led the two of them inside.
Along the way, some ironware and porcelain fragments with a sense of age were placed under the instruments to help students observe.
Luo Qing looked around and soon arrived at his destination. It was a row of burnt-yellow books, most of which were leather-textured books. They had a sense of time, and they did not look like things that were nearly a thousand years old.
"Oh, this is a book about the Mayan civilization. Where did you find it?" Chen Long exclaimed as he looked at the pattern-like words on the cover of the book.
This exclamation also brought Luo Qing's attention back. Mayan civilization? Quetzalcoatl? The god who is suspected of plotting on Xiaoyu?
"Mr. Chen, you know, some things are not convenient for us to disclose." The school leader was a fat white man with a big belly, and he said with some embarrassment.
A trace of uneasiness flashed in Chen Long's eyes, and his tone became stiffer: "I know, you don't need to explain this, I'm not interested."
"Haha... Then please leave it to Mr. Chen, I won't disturb you." The fat man chuckled and stepped back, slowly walking out.
Mayan civilization... No one knows how this glorious civilization suddenly collapsed, but at least Luo Qing knows that the Mayan descendants in this world are not doing well, and they seem to be almost gone now.
Luo Qing has seen the time when they were lonely, four thousand years ago...
Four Thousand Years...The Cup of Life...This seems to be a turning point...
"Luo Qing, please sit down first. If you have anything you don't understand, you can ask Uncle Long and I will try my best to help you answer it." A smile appeared on Chen Long's face again and he said to Luo Qing.
He is just an archaeologist, some things are not his business, and he doesn’t want to ask more questions.
"Uh, Uncle Long, I just have something I want to ask you." Luo Qing thought for a moment and stared at Chen Long seriously.
"You asked."
"How many lost civilizations do you know? For example, the Maya, Atlantis, etc., especially those that have not been clearly extinct. I am particularly curious about their living conditions." Luo Qing used the topic of Maya, and it was natural for him to
asked.
"The Hidden Tribe..." Chen Long, who had just sat down and was about to pick up a book, paused, his eyes flashed with deep thoughts.
The office slowly fell into silence. After a long time, Chen Long's eyes lit up: "Yes!"
