Qi Ming and Cui Tianxiao returned to the stronghold of a shop the day before the holiday ended. Both of them brought Li Xing a lot of specialties and gifts from their hometowns.
Cui Tianxiao took out an exquisite square colored shell lacquer box and put it in front of Li Xing, saying:
"Star, my uncle asked me to thank you. Thanks to your donut, his fleet has not been attacked by sea beasts anymore, and the safety of sailing on the sea has been greatly improved. If nothing unexpected happens, you will be able to make it soon
I made back the money I lost in previous years. This was the gift he asked me to hand it over to you, and I told you to accept it."
The lacquer box is not big, one foot square, and the black primer is decorated with colorful shells to inlaid with various floral, bird and beast patterns, which are exquisite.
Before Li Xing could say anything, Qi Ming exclaimed: "This is the most famous specialty of Haiwei Castle, the mother-of-pearl lacquer box!"
Cui Tian smiled and grinned: "I didn't expect that Xiaoming, you have studied this kind of thing that girls like! Have you bought it for your girlfriend?"
Qi Ming stretched out his hand and gently stroked the mother-of-pearl shells on the box.
"I don't have a girlfriend! I know that this box still brings blessings from my third sister. When my third sister got married, she especially wanted a mother-of-pearl lacquer box like this as a makeup box, but unfortunately she didn't buy it. Just because of this matter
My third sister also got very angry with my third brother-in-law. I was curious at that time, wasn’t it just a box? Why did I have to book three years in advance? So I checked it online and then I realized the preciousness of mother-of-pearl lacquer boxes.”
Li Xing asked: "How precious is it?"
"The mother-of-pearl used to inlaid the flower and bird patterns is taken from the heart-protecting armor of the luminous salamander beast. The luminous salamander beast lives on the bottom of the deep sea and is extremely difficult to capture. A luminous salamander beast only has one heart-protecting armor. It is rare.
It is expensive, and the price of mother-of-pearl is high. A large piece of nails costs an average person a year's income.
"Apart from the rare, mother-of-pearl is extremely hard. To carve it into a pattern, it must be handmade by rune artists above the Xuanzhai level. The construction period is long, and it takes about three years to make enough mother-of-pearl pieces that decorate the lacquer box.
The mother-of-pearl lacquer box is colorful in the sunlight, and can emit a faint blue fluorescence at night, which is particularly beautiful."
Cui Tianxiao nodded: "You are right. But the mother-of-pearl lacquer box is not the whole gift. There are still things in the box. Stars, open it quickly and take a look."
Li Xing opened the lacquer box and exposed a box of round beads. These beads are about the same size as pearls, but they are much more beautiful than pearls. The surface seems to be coated with a colorful light film. Looking at it from different angles, the beads are
The color and luster are different. Even though Li Xing is knowledgeable, he was hit hard by this box of colorful pearls.
Cui Tianxiao: "Damn it, it's actually fairy tears!"
Qi Ming and Li Xing spoke at the same time: "What is fairy tears?"
Cui Tianxiao picked up a colorful bead, held it up and admired it carefully in the sunshine, and explained:
"Fairy Tears are an ore produced in specific sea areas. They were originally industrial raw materials, but because of their beautiful appearance and special color, they were gradually made into jewelry and their prices also increased. Now there are few fairy Tears ores, and my uncle can find them.
There are so many, it's not easy."
"Star, I know a few good jewelry masters. Do you want to make a few?"
Li Xing thought for a while and said, "Okay, just make six necklaces."
"Do you only make necklaces? It looks great in bracelets, hair accessories, and brooches."
Li Xing shook his head: "It's for gifts to people, and it's okay to have a versatile necklace."
"What about the rest?"
"I'll try to see if I can refine the elixirs for the rest."
Cui Tianxiao curled his lips. Li Xing, this guy, has a rough heart in his loli's skin. It's really a waste of talent to use such a beautiful fairy tears to refine elixirs!
After the short vacation, the team was in dissatisfied with the special treatment team started tense pre-match special training again.
Although the first game was good, I was afraid that they would be arrogant and arrogant. Wen Dao specifically instructed the teachers to continue to adhere to the principle of strict teachers and high disciples, improve training standards, increase training intensity, and strive to increase the strength of the team that specializes in the treatment of disobedient teams to increase their strength by another level.
.
The first battle won, and the teachers were all the same as when they were injected with chicken blood. They were full of energy, but they suffered Li Xing and the others. They were not told about being abused by the teachers every day, but they also had to fight in the training room that simulated the desert environment. They were also tired.
It's hot and has to limit moisture intake, which is simply miserable.
Fortunately, the new semester began one week after the special training.
Fu, who is a military academy competition, signed up for the Halthas Academy this year, is the largest number of freshmen in the past twenty years. Many freshmen temporarily changed their volunteers after watching the competition and transferred from other schools.
.No wonder people say that the military academy competition is the best admissions advertisement.
All the teachers in the school have been engaged in the new work. Even Luo Jun has no time to supervise the team of specialized treatment and disobedience. He asked them to train themselves, and the few people can finally take some laziness.
While studying the courses for the new semester, they were training and their lives were fulfilling. The only regret that several people felt was that Ye Qingting had never returned to school. The team was missing one person, and they always felt that something was missing and incomplete.
I don’t know what Qingting is busy with recently, so I don’t have any Star Network, and I can’t get through the phone. I will reply after two or three days after sending a message.
When asked what was wrong, he only said that there was something wrong at home and he would go back after the processing was done. It took more than a week to wait.
On Friday night, the three of them unexpectedly received a video communication from Ye Qingting. The boy in the light screen looked haggard and his eyes were bloodshot, as if he hadn't slept for a few days.
Cui Tianxiao was shocked: "Damn Qingting, who has ruined you so much? Tell me, I'm going torture her alive!"
Ye Qingting didn't have the strength to laugh at Cui Tian, and looked at Li Xing tiredly: "Axing, I want to ask for help in something."
Li Xing: "You said, as long as I can, I will definitely help."
Ye Qingting looked grateful and said, "This matter is a long story, and it is not convenient for me to explain to you on the phone. If possible, I hope you will come to Ye's house tomorrow."
"good."
The next day was just the weekend. Li Xing took Cui Tianxiao Qiming into the teleportation port and set foot on the land of Cuihuan City. Cuihuan City is located in hills and has a vast area, and is known for its planting industry.
As soon as he left the port, a young man with a gentle appearance and a 50-60-six-six-same-like Ye Qingting came up with another elegant uncle who was a little older.
"Brother Tianxiao!"
"Qingyun? Butler Hu? Why are you here?" Cui Tianxiao thought Ye Qingting would come in person, but he didn't know that these two people were here.
Ye Qingyun: "Brother Qingting said you will come today and told me to pick up the station."
Cui Tian nodded and introduced to Li Xing and Qi Ming: "He is Ye Qingyun, Qingting's cousin. This is Mr. Hu, the chief manager of the Ye family."
Li Xing and Qi Ming greeted Ye Qingyun and Butler Hu. The latter seemed particularly excited when he saw her. It was not the kind of excitement he saw when he saw a distinguished guest, but it seemed like he saw a life-saving straw. This made Li Xing suspicious, Ye Qingting
What happened to the Ye family?
Cui Tianxiao: "Where is Qingting? Why didn't he come?"
Ye Qingyun's face was dark: "Cousin Qingting can't leave, you will know the specific situation when you arrive at the Ye family."
Everyone was inconvenient to ask again, boarded the aircraft and roared towards the Ye family.
