In the following days, Li Xiao left Xiaoqiang to practice silently in the system space to digest the majestic aura of resentful spirits and ghosts.
At the same time, under his instruction, Immorton also mobilized his followers and asked them to search for the best alchemical materials containing the three attributes of earth, fire, and air. According to the news from the informants, in Baidun
Evelyn and O'Connor were nowhere to be seen in the area around the fort. It seemed that after finding no treasure, they had probably given up the idea and returned to the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets.
This expedition was undoubtedly very dangerous. In the end, only four people, Li Xiao, Evelyn, O'Connor and Jonathan, were left in the two expedition teams, and the American expedition team only had Li Xiao.
The rest of the expedition team members were either buried by the wind or killed by Immorton and his mummy men. Their fate seemed to be cursed by the God of Death, which made people sigh.
After Li Xiao stayed in the Tomb of Earth for several days, Immorton finally took a plane and left Egypt on this day with a look of great anticipation. He was really afraid of letting Li Xiao stay for a few more days.
I am afraid that the entire Tomb of Earth or Egypt will be moved away by him!
After experiencing a series of turmoil and disasters, Hamna Tower, the city of the dead standing on the desert, finally regained its temporary peace and calm as the wind stopped and the sand fell, the clouds cleared and the fog dispersed.
…
…
Two days later, a plane flying from Egypt to the United States slowly landed at the airport from the sky above New York. Li Xiao turned up his collar and quietly walked out of the airport along with the crowds of people.
Arriving on the streets of New York.
There are many buildings, busy traffic, and an endless stream of pedestrians. Although under the background of the great economic crisis, the streets and alleys have a sense of depression, but compared to Egypt, which is located in the desert and is sparsely populated, it is more prosperous.
Got too much.
Wandering through the streets of New York, Li Xiao felt the intense fireworks lively.
Just when he reached a street corner, a man wearing a black bowler hat walked towards him in a hurry.
This man seemed so preoccupied that he lowered his head and failed to see the road ahead clearly, and he bumped into Li Xiao off guard.
Li Xiao was naturally fine, but this short and fat man was staggered by the impact. After exclaiming "Ah", he fell to the ground, and the things he held under his ribs also fell away.
fell to the ground.
"I'm sorry, sir, I'm really sorry." Although he fell, the fat man knew that he was in the wrong. After getting up from the ground, he quickly apologized to Li Xiao and hurriedly picked up the things he had just dropped.
There was a black film, a poster showing a man and a woman embracing each other warmly, and a thick stack of actor's script lines. It seemed that the man's occupation was in the film and television industry.
"Are you a director?" Li Xiao asked the fat man.
The fat man was wiping the dust off the film. After listening to Li Xiao's words, he couldn't help but open his eyes wide and asked in surprise: "How do you know I am the director? Have you ever seen a movie directed by me?"
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the director's notes. I took a look at it just now, and it's full of scene scripts and story passages from the movie." Li Xiao smiled softly and shook the hand he had just picked up from the ground.
Said this old book.
From the few pages that were blown open by the wind, he could see that they were filled with dense text, recording the story plot and scene script of a movie called "Pretty Woman".
In the modern world, Li Xiao is a senior supporting actor, and there is also a movie with a supporting role in the theater, so he is relatively familiar with the film and television industry. This book looks like a notebook used by the director for filming, and in
Its title page was marked with the words "Director: Carl", which was related to some other items, so he guessed that the person in front of him should be a film director.
"It seems that you also know a lot about the film industry. Yes, I am indeed a film director." Karl nodded, with a sense of pride in his tone.
Li Xiao handed the notebook to the other party, and at the same time glanced at the movie poster next to him, and asked tentatively: "Is this a movie you made? It looks good. I also worked as an actor for a while, so to speak.
We are also considered peers."
"Wow, what a coincidence. If I hadn't been rushing to hand over the film to the film company for investment review, I would have had a drink with you in the cafe." After saying that, Karl looked at the film being re-rolled by himself.
Looking at the movie posters together, I couldn't help but shake my head and smile bitterly: "This is just a vulgar movie I made just to make a living. It's not good."
After hearing the other party's words, Li Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly. It seemed that although the other party was very proud of his career as a director, he was not satisfied with his current situation and seemed a bit depressed.
"I'm in a hurry now, so I have to leave first. I'll see you later." Karl tucked the film and script he picked up from the ground under his ribs, waved to Li Xiao, and rushed towards the end of the street.
Li Xiao looked at the other person's hurried back, and couldn't help but frown slightly. He didn't know why, but this Karl looked familiar, and he seemed to have a sense of déjà vu.
After thinking to no avail, Li Xiao shook his head, stopped his aimless thinking, stopped staying, and continued walking in the original direction.
…
…
New York, Fifth Avenue, Carson Adventure Co., Ltd.
There is a hint of aimei in the manager's office.
The oily Charles sat on the chair with his plump belly. He gently raised his fingers, and a blond girl in uniform knelt down under the desk obediently, with a charming and charming face.
A hint of blush appeared on his face.
The tight short skirt accentuated her graceful and tall figure, making her curves more attractive and sexy. Her sexy and attractive S-shaped curve can't help but make people's blood rush.
Charles was so excited that he licked his lower lip obscenely, stretched out his fat hands, grabbed the back of the blonde's head, pressed her down, and began to move rhythmically.
In the process of ups and downs, the female secretary's pair of turbulent waves were beating up and down violently, with a violent amplitude that was dizzying.
A moment later, amidst a burst of melancholy and melancholy sounds that were suppressed with all the strength, an alluring atmosphere filled the room.
After Charles's tense body trembled violently, he became intoxicated and confused, as if everything around him was boring.
"Dong dong dong."
At this moment, an untimely knock on the door came.
"Damn it, I've never been so active before!" Charles cursed in his heart and quickly pulled up his pants.
At this time, the blonde girl stood up from the ground, wiped the residue from the corners of her mouth with her hands, and glared at Charles secretly with a hint of complaint in her eyes.
The fat on Charles's face trembled. He smiled and patted the other party's buttocks. Then he shook his head, cheered up, and sat upright on the chair again, pretending that he was at work.
, after venting his burning passion, Charles suddenly felt extremely refreshed.
After sorting out the wrinkled clothes on her body, the blonde took a stack of documents on her desk, took a shaky cat walk, and opened the door with an elegant gesture.
Standing outside the room was a tall man in security uniform. When he saw the secretary coming out, her clothes were a little messy and there was still an unknown liquid remaining at the corner of her mouth. He couldn't help but stare blankly and swallowed deeply.
He spit.
It wasn't until Charles coughed in the back room that he shifted his gaze from the secretary's face, made way for the other party, and at the same time stepped aside and walked into the office.
"What's the matter?" Charles closed the documents on the table, frowned slightly, and said to security guard Thomas with some displeasure.
After calming down the nausea of smelling the strange smell in the office, Thomas remembered the business, barely squeezed out a trace of respect, and replied: "Boss, we sent people from the ancient Egypt Hamnata expedition team
came back!"
After hearing this, Charles' eyes lit up, he stood up and said happily: "Are you talking about the Hamnatta expedition team? Why didn't you tell me earlier, go and join me to entertain Dr. Henderson and the others!"
Thomas' eyes flickered and hesitated, then hesitantly said: "To tell you the truth, Li is the only one who returned from the entire expedition."
"What? How come it's just one person? Where are Henderson, Beni and the others!" Charles' eyes widened in disbelief, and his originally extremely happy mood suddenly cooled down.
Thomas shook his head in confusion, his eyes filled with confusion. It was obvious that he did not know the specific news.
"Forget it, take me to see him quickly now!"
Thomas was confused by all the questions, and in the end, Charles didn't expect to get any answers from him, so he waved his hand and walked out of the office with hasty steps, preparing to talk to Li Xiao himself.
