I am reciting the Classic of Mountains and Seas in the interstellar

Vanessa is most interested in things like rubies.

She happily rushed back to her room and took out a ten-fold magnifying glass to carefully observe the purity of the ruby ​​bonsai tree.

"Hey! This is more than just the 3A level of the Flawless! This is the 3S level of the Flawless!"

Mai Aotuo knew that Fan Ruisi was an expert in rubies.

She said so, the value of this ruby ​​bonsai tree must be sky-high.

He said regretfully: "Do we have to turn this over too? If we stay, return to the Beichen Galaxy and sell it, everyone's share will probably be 20 million!"

Jiang Sheng said excitedly: "Really?! Our first prize this time is only 20 million in total!"

Ten more people to share.

Song Baotai said with some embarrassment: "But we didn't contribute much today. The captain found it alone... Do we have to share it with everyone?"

Mai Aotuo said hurriedly: "Song Baotai is right, this belongs to the captain alone and we should not divide it."

But he still said cautiously: "Captain, if you really want to sell this ruby ​​bonsai tree, can you sell it to my family?"

He quickly glanced at Vanessa and said, "...I want to give it to Vanessa as a betrothal gift."

Fan Ruisi never expected that Mai Aotuo would show up like this.

He couldn't help but cover his blushing face and said, "Ao Tuo, must you be sick? We are so young, we only get betrothal gifts!"

Mai Aotuo chuckled and said, "Get engaged first. After you get engaged, you won't be worried anymore..."

Vanessa's face couldn't help but turn redder.

She pushed Mai Aotuo and ran back to her room.

Xia Chujian said: "So you two are really a couple! How nice!"

"In that case, let's have a secret vote to see if we would like to hand over the ruby ​​bonsai tree to the calculation, or keep it and sell it."

"I said before that the things collected this time will be shared equally by everyone, so let's share it equally."

In fact, she still had a suitcase of gold, and she was already embarrassed that she didn't take it out to share it.

After hearing what Xia Chujian said, everyone expressed their approval for the secret ballot.

Xia Chujian tinkered with the secret voting program in his quantum optical brain, and then sent it to the group so that everyone could start voting.

This way no one knows who voted for it.

The final result was not unexpected, and everyone unanimously agreed to stay and sell it.

Xia Chujian said: "Mai Aotuo, since we want to sell, we must sell it to you first."

"You pay according to the market price, and there is no need to deliberately pay a high price. Of course, it is not allowed to deliberately lower the price to gain familiarity."

Mai Aotuo said hurriedly: "I will definitely not kill it! This ruby ​​bonsai tree will be placed with the captain for the time being."

"I will contact the captain when we return to the Beichen Galaxy."

Xia Chujian nodded in agreement and asked Xiaofei to take the ruby ​​bonsai tree back to his room.

Then she added: "Now that you have consolidated your newly promoted spiritual power, you can go out to mine together tomorrow."

"Do you have any plans?"

The rest of the team members looked at me and I looked at you, and then they all looked at Xia Chujian and said, "We will do whatever the captain says."

Chen Yanjun also said: "Didn't the captain explore the way today? How is the situation of this god descending to the earth?"

Thinking of what happened today, Xia Chujian couldn't help but complain: "They said God descended to the earth, but there was nothing!"

"Xiao Fei and I flew five thousand kilometers and found such a ruby ​​bonsai tree!"

"Those members of the military's interstellar exploration force only found some ordinary conventional metals, which are abundant in the Beichen Galaxy. There is no need to transport them back from this distant galaxy."

The team members all looked at each other and said in surprise: "So the members of the military didn't find any rare mineral deposits?"

"Didn't I hear that there are a lot of rare metal deposits here? Where have they gone?"

Xia Chujian shook his head and said, "Anyway, I took a route to the east and found nothing."

"Besides, I saw that Qiu Zining also went east."

"By the way, is she back?"

Xia Chujian thought of this and looked toward the porthole again.

Sure enough, several aircraft came back outside, but they were all military airships, not their school's.

Xia Chujian was a little nervous and said, "I don't know how many people in our school have left, or all of them have stayed..."

If they were all left behind and now are missing, the loss would still be a bit big.

Everyone fell silent.

After a while, Xia Chujian said, "Why don't we go out tomorrow? Let's look for those who disappeared first, right?"

As she was talking, she suddenly felt a message pop up on the expedition team's public channel.

[Zong Ruoning·Ombudsman]: There are changes in the camp! Don't go back! Don't go back! Don't go back!

Huh?

Is this a public channel that can be connected to the expedition headquarters?

Xia Chujian hurriedly sent a message.

[Meet at the beginning of summer·Treasure Hunting Team 1]: Teacher Zong, there is indeed a problem in the camp. Do you know where the remaining people have gone? We were all near the camp and were afraid to enter the camp.

Zong Ruoning had already walked far away, but thinking about what happened in the camp, he was worried that it was getting late and the people who came back would accidentally enter the camp and disappear too.

So he finally asked the driver to return to the campground.

He has now become a genetic evolver, and he is sure that he does have a premonition of the crisis, so there is no need to worry when he comes back.

He approached the camp area step by step and made sure that the sense of crisis and unbearable oppression that made his heart palpitation disappeared before continuing forward.

In his aircraft, there is a temporary base station of the same model as the expedition headquarters.

Therefore, when he comes within fifty meters of the new camp, everyone can connect to the camp's LAN.

They can also access the expedition team's public channel.

Once Xia Chujian posts, others can see it.

But for now, only people from their team are posting messages on the expedition team’s public channel.

When Zong Ruoning saw Xia Chujian's post, he directly used the video to go to the public channel and said, "Is this classmate Xia Chujian?"

Xia Chujian also posted a video on the public channel, saying: "It's me, everyone in our team is here."

"We are stationed at a mountain col about a hundred meters outside the old camp. There are also many military airships here."

Zong Ruoning breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Are you okay? I sent a message to the expedition team's public channel, and then I remembered that we are far away and may not be able to receive the content on the camp's LAN."

Xia Chujian said: "We are all fine, Teacher Zong, what happened? The campground was still fine when we left!"

Zong Ruoning told him what he had seen before.

He hesitated for a moment, then said: "At that time, our aircraft had already left the camp."

"After leaving, I looked back and saw only a white light covering the camp. Then after the white light disappeared, everyone in the camp, as well as aircraft, airships, and various equipment, all disappeared."

When Zong Ruoning said this, he concealed some facts because he didn't want people to know that he had the power to predict crises.

Xia Chujian also thought it was a coincidence that Zong Ruoning looked back at the camp.

She hurriedly said: "When we first returned to the camp, we also went to explore the camp."

"As a result, a white light also appeared in the sky, and the white light was like a cover, covering those of us who entered."

"I was so anxious that I fired several shots at the source of the white light in the sky to disperse the white light."

Zong Ruoning was shocked: "You shot at the white light and scattered them?!"

How can this be? !

He still can't forget the feeling of oppression that was almost unbearable!

There is also the palpitations and panic of impending disaster...

Zong Ruoning rubbed his temples and said, "I have to think about it carefully."

Then he went down from the expedition team's public channel and sent a private message to Xia Chujian's quantum optical brain account alone.

[Zong Ruoning]: Are you in the aircraft? Can you find a place? I have something to do and I want to video chat with you alone.

Xia Chujian replied to him.

[See you at the beginning of summer]: I am in the public area of ​​the aircraft. I will chat with you privately when I return to the room.

She raised her head and saw everyone chatting on the expedition team's public channel, and she twitched her lips in silence.

Obviously we are all in the public area of ​​the same aircraft, and face-to-face chatting is not enough. Do we have to chat online?

She coughed lightly, stood up and said, "I'm sleepy, so I'll go back to sleep first."

"I'll trouble you to stay on duty tonight."

"We will discuss what we are going to do tomorrow."

Everyone reluctantly exited the expedition team's public channel and waved to Xia Chujian: "Good night, captain."

"We also need to plan the specific night watch plan for today and what preparations we need to make tomorrow."

Xia Chujian nodded and returned to his room.

The exploration robot Xiaofei has returned to the pilot's seat of the aircraft.

This night, it will stay here.

Xia Chujian closed her door and took a deep breath.

The news she heard from Zong Ruoning made her a little scared.

I don’t know what Zong Ruoning has to say in private.

Since Zong Ruoning doesn't want to say it on the public channel, there must be some things that cannot be made public.

Xia Chujian thought about it and sent an invitation to Zong Ruoning for a video call.

Zong Ruoning's Zong aircraft also flew to the place where Xia Chu saw them stationed.

This is a very spacious mountain col, and it can accommodate dozens of aircraft without any problem.

What's more, they now only have a dozen airships and one aircraft in total.

Zong Ruoning accepted Xia Chujian's video call invitation.

The two appeared on each other's virtual screens.

Zong Ruoning looked at Xia Chujian, not wanting to hide anything from her, and said, "Chujian, I have something to tell you, but I hope you can keep it a secret."

Xia Chujian said seriously: "Teacher Zong, if it's your own personal issue, you'd better not tell me. I don't know if I can keep it a secret."

Zong Ruoning: "..."

Zong Ruoning smiled bitterly and said, "Classmate Xia, don't be so strict. Just promise me and make me feel better, okay?"

Xia Chujian smiled: "You tell me."

This is the first update, there will be a second update at 12 noon.

Ask for a monthly ticket at the beginning of the month!
