The imprint of the universe and the return of all things

Section 3. Banquet before departure

At nine o'clock in the morning, in the restaurant private room of Gutang Silk Road Hotel, members of Hill's team sat around the dining table, tasting sumptuous and delicious Dunhuang special dishes and fine wines, while admiring Classical music performed live by a national band.

During the dinner, Hill raised his glass and said to the team members:"Let's drink to Jason's return. If it weren't for the heroic performance of Jason and Kurata, we wouldn't have been able to leave Japan smoothly." The members raised their glasses one after another. Pick up the wine glasses in your hands and toast together.

Jason said lightly:"It's a pity that Kurata was too seriously injured and couldn't come here with me. Otherwise, everything would be more perfect. Let us also toast to Kurata who is recovering from his injuries in Japan." (In order to avoid the team The morale of the group was hit. After discussion, Hill and Jason decided to hide the news of Kurata's death from the members.) The members thought that Kurata was really safe and sound, so they raised their glasses and drank together.

Ito asked Jason:"Is it really okay for Mr. Kurata to be injured alone in Japan? After all, the power of the Xingri Society in Japan is so huge."

Jason said thoughtfully:"Don't worry, Kurata. Tian went to a very quiet place, Xingrihui will never find him again."

Ito murmured:"I hope he can recover quickly and join us.……"

At this time, Sabourin, who drank several glasses of liquor in a row and was a little drunk, said:"This time I followed the"Prophet" to Dunhuang, and the treatment was really good. I remember that when I came here several times before, due to lack of funds, We can only eat and sleep in the open air. Look at the wine and food in front of us. They are so rich. Did the tour guide prepare them for us?"

Kevin said:"Yes, she specially prepared them."

Sabourin said:" But as for her, I want to thank her. Thank her for allowing me to taste these Dunhuang wines."

Kevin smiled:"She said she would perform a Dunhuang dance for us later, so she is still changing her clothes now.."

As soon as Kevin finished speaking, Li Qingqian, wearing an elegant silk costume, walked into the private room.

As soon as she appeared, she immediately stunned the audience. Her pure and refined beauty and graceful figure dazzled everyone present. Even Lena, who has always been proud of her beauty, secretly lamented her inferiority. Sablin and Ito even exclaimed in unison:"Oh my God!"

Li Qing danced along with the music, dancing gracefully and with fluttering clothes, like a fairy. Everyone was attracted by her wonderful performance and watched with great concentration. Especially Ito, who couldn't take his eyes off the whole process and even secretly took out his mobile phone to record the performance.

After the performance, everyone gave Li Qing a warm round of applause. Li Qing sat down at an empty seat at the dining table and introduced himself to the Hill team.

Hill said to Li Qing:"Thank you for the careful arrangements you have made for us. I believe that with you as our tour guide, our trip will be very exciting."

Li Qing said generously:"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Scott. I have always admired your name and heard many stories about you, especially the charities you do. It is an honor to serve you and your team." Jason told Li Qing He smiled and said:"I didn't expect that you are not only very skilled, but also a good dancer."

Li Qing said humbly:"It's just an amateur level. I can only help everyone."

Kevin asked Jason curiously:"Have you already met?"

Jason said,"Yes, not only did we meet, but something also happened."

Kevin said,"What happened?"

Jason felt that Li Qing was mistaken for an enemy. A little embarrassed, he smiled and said,"It's a long story, let's talk about it later."

Seeing that Jason didn't mention it, Li Qing naturally didn't want to say more.

Sabulin praised Li Qingsheng:"Qing, you are the most beautiful oriental girl I have ever seen. You are just like an angel from the East. The wine and food you prepared for us are very delicious, thank you. To be honest, if it weren't for If I had gotten married a long time ago, I would have pursued you like a puppy."

Li Qing blushed and said,"Thank you."

Reina said with a disdainful expression:"I really can't stand you Romanovs, just having sex with someone else You said such disgusting words when we met."

Sabourin smiled at Reina:"You call me disgusting? I bet that our lovely Raj must have said a lot of disgusting love words to you, otherwise you wouldn't be able to pursue her. To you, a proud beauty. Indian men are famous for being romantic, aren't they, haha……"

The members of the team all knew about the relationship between Reina and Raj, and they couldn't help but smile.

Reina held Raj's hand and said to Sablin:"Shut up, Raj is different from you. He is very special."

Raj's face turned slightly red, and he didn't know what to say.

Sabourin shrugged and said:"Okay, okay, I'll shut up and won't talk about your lover Raj." He raised a large glass of white wine and took a sip, then turned his head and smiled at Ito:" Brother Ito, are you interested in Qing? I just saw you secretly recording her video."

Ito secretly cursed Sablin, an alcoholic, for talking nonsense. He did fall in love with Li Qing at first sight, but being asked this by Sablin in public made him feel very embarrassed. What's more, he has never been very confident about his appearance. Facing a beautiful woman like Li Qing, he would inevitably feel a little ashamed of himself. Therefore, he had no choice but to say awkwardly:"I just think this kind of dance is very special and I want to record it for appreciation. No." I mean something else."

But everyone didn't seem to believe what he said, looking at him with ambiguous eyes and secretly laughing.

Only Zoe, who was sitting next to Ito, said with a serious expression:"Of course Ito will not like Qing. She is not the type that Ito likes. Geniuses like him should be more interested in girls with high education and smart minds. Interested. I'm right, Ito."

Ito felt speechless that Zoe thought she knew him. He quickly explained:"Actually, I……"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Li Qing, who had a slightly sullen look on his face, interrupted:"Yes. I'm just an ordinary undergraduate student at Western Region University, so naturally I'm not worthy of Mr. Ito. Well, let's just talk about me. Let's end it here, let's talk about something else."

Ito had no choice but to give up the explanation. Kevin wisely changed the subject and chatted with Li Qing about the customs and customs of Dunhuang. At the same time, he stuffed a lot of camel hoof meat and roast mutton onto Sabourin's plate, so that Sabourin could only focus on eating. To prevent him from continuing to talk nonsense.

After everyone ate, drank and chatted for a while, the banquet ended, and then everyone went back to their rooms to pack their luggage and set off for sightseeing.

The team was divided into three Wrangler off-road vehicles. Among them, Hill, Ito, Jason and Li Qing shared a car.

After getting in the car, Hill took out the Golden Bagua Compass from his arms and held it in his hand to examine it.

Li Qing saw the compass in Hill's hand and said to Hill:"It's a very exquisite compass. Mr. Scott, do you believe in Taoism?"

Hill said:"It's not a belief, it's just that you agree with Taoism.. Many ideas taught. Whenever I am confused or feel something, I will look at this compass, hoping to understand something from it."

Li Qing asked with a smile:"Then what have you understood now?"?"

Hill said (in Chinese):"If a teacher comes out with discipline, he will be punished."

Li Qing said:"Although I am sure you are speaking Chinese, it is too profound and I don't understand what it means.."

Hill said:"This is a line in the"Book of Changes", which means that we must be more careful during this trip, especially discipline."

(Original meaning: The army must have strict discipline when marching and fighting. Without strict discipline The discipline will be dangerous.)

Li Qing said with a vague understanding:"I see."

Li Qing added:"By the way, when Kevin contacted our company, he specifically told us that you want to be quiet Enjoy the whole journey and don’t want to attract attention or be disturbed by others. So he not only asked our company to keep your team’s itinerary confidential, but also asked me to help you hide your identity. For this reason, I brought these things to you, should It will help."

She said, handing Hill a pair of sunglasses, a hat, and a fake beard, and then said:"If you wear these props, it will be harder for others to recognize you."

Hill He looked at it and said with a smile:"Thank you for your kindness. But we have our own way." He took out a set of Hermes disguise tools from the suitcase and put it on. He was instantly different and turned into a thirty-year-old man. A man of many years old and with a majestic appearance.

He said to Li Qing in a deep voice:"I think this would be better."

Li Qing had never seen such a magical camouflage tool before, and was amazed. Na Na said:"It is indeed better. It seems that it is better." It was unnecessary for me."

Hill said:"By the way, my current identity is Hill Gates, a securities trader, nicknamed"Prophet", you can call me Hill or Prophet. The rest of the team The members all play the role of my"colleagues". We work in the same securities company. We come here to travel this time because we have performed well at work and the company gave us travel rewards."

Li Qing smiled and said:"Okay. I understand. Yes. It seems that the treatment of your"company" is very good."

Jason also put on the disguise tool, turned into a handsome guy with an oriental face, and said:"Of course, we love this company to death."

Ito took Holding his disguise tool, he complained dissatisfiedly:"Why are the identities assigned to me always so ugly? I also want to be a handsome guy."

Jason said:"That's because you are not good-looking to begin with. Gao, I'm afraid that if you suddenly become a handsome guy, you won't be able to adapt to it and will be exposed easily."

Ito curled his lips and said,"This sounds really hurtful."

Jason patted Ito's shoulder and smiled:"But this It's a fact, brother."

In the car, Hill was in a bad state of mind because he drank a little wine at the banquet, so he lay down on his seat and closed his eyes to take a nap not long after setting off.

Jason started chatting with Li Qing, and the two of them immediately became animated. Both of them are people who have traveled around the world. They have extensive knowledge and have many common topics. In addition, they are handsome and have matching looks. They are attracted to each other. They both have a feeling of regretting that they have met each other too late.

On the other hand, Ito, who was also in the car, felt very bored and even a little jealous. He also wanted to join the chat between the two of them, especially to communicate more with Li Qing. But unfortunately, I was a homebody, and I couldn't get a word in to what Jason and Li Qing were talking about, so I could only lean against the car window and pretend to look at the scenery.
