[Comprehensive Yingmei] The Adventures of Xiaoyu

Chapter 33 America's Sweethearts

"Charles, have you heard of the 'Ark of the Covenant'?"

"The Ark of the Covenant? It sounds familiar...it has something to do with Moses?" Charles didn't know why Xiaoyu suddenly mentioned the 'Ark of the Covenant', but he still gave Xiaoyu a serious answer.

"Well, the Ark of the Covenant is a box used by the Hebrews to keep the Ten Commandments. Of course, the Ten Commandments here do not refer to the paper that was copied and circulated widely in later generations, but the Ten Commandments that were first engraved on the stone tablet, which Moses brought from the mountain. It came down and broke the stone tablet." Xiaoyu ran to the refrigerator and poured herself another glass of soda, her cozy appearance did not seem to be talking about a very serious topic for her.

"I remember that the Hebrews later settled in Canan, and the holy city of Jerusalem is also in the Canan area?" Charles thought.

"Yes, the Hebrews put the broken stele in the Ark of the Covenant, and after they settled in Canaan, they placed the Ark in a place called 'Solomon's Temple' in Jerusalem."

"The Ark of the Covenant was left there for many years until it disappeared... No one knows how the Ark of the Covenant disappeared and where it is. Of course, the most reliable news is—" Xiaoyu closed her mouth, and the rest of her words Did not say it.

The most reliable news is that around 980 BC, an Egyptian pharaoh named Sshak invaded Jerusalem. It is likely that he took the Ark of the Covenant and placed it in his territory, the city of Tanis.The Ark of the Covenant is likely to be in a secret chamber in Tanis. Rumor has it that the chamber is called the 'Soul Well'.

Xiaoyu didn't tell Charles about this, and she unilaterally ended the topic of the Ark that was brought up suddenly, as if what she said before was just a whim... However, it was indeed a whim.

The Ark of the Covenant was a symbol of God in the eyes of the Israelites in the Old Testament era.The place where the ark is located is the place where God is...and God has never been absolutely benevolent and harmless.

Less than a year after the Ark of the Covenant was brought back to Egypt by Sshak, the city of Tanis was submerged by a sandstorm that lasted for a whole year, and completely disappeared into the desert.

The city of Tanis was obliterated by the wrath of God!

From Evelyn's phone call to the conversation with Ardesby before leaving, to the Ark of the Covenant... It always feels like an omen, Xiaoyu smacked her lips and thought with some discomfort.

"Xiaoyu, although I won't read what you think, but judging from your expression, you have trouble again?" Charles said to Xiaoyu who was in deep thought. I have a little understanding of the temperament of my sister who I have met and rarely got along with before.

"It's nothing troublesome, it's just that Evelyn's phone call reminded me of a chat with another friend before parting." Xiaoyu said indifferently, and she happily finished the soda in the glass, as if to break the gap between the two. The serious atmosphere was average, and an extremely exaggerated hiccup occurred.

"Phew, it really is the most comfortable way to drink soda!"

"...hey" Charles sighed helplessly.For this younger sister, he even felt the same sense of powerlessness that existed in Ruiwen.

Xiaoyu didn't stay here for long either. After all, Xavier Academy for Gifted Youth is too boring now. If she has time to chat with Charles here, she might as well go shopping in Times Square in New York. Maybe she can meet Iron Man. .

Sports cars become difficult to move when they step onto the road outside Times Square, and pedestrians and private cars are constantly flowing at the crossroads of the world.

On the giant screen in the middle of Times Square, Iron Man Tony Stark's latest interview is playing, perhaps live.The topic of the interview was "Whether Iron Man is on the side of mutants?" The reporter asked the question from a tricky angle, as if he was dissatisfied with Iron Man's previous support for mutants on the Internet.

Xiaoyu even suspected that the reporter was sent by the government to test Tony Stark's position - after all, the powerful Iron Man also needs to be vigilant in the official view.

However, in response to the reporter's tricky questions, Tony Stark was extremely calm. He even teased this boring female reporter in a professional suit, well-groomed hair, and black-rimmed glasses.

"I am a good citizen of the United States, following the call of the country, treating fellow mutants kindly, and creating a bright future where humans and mutants coexist peacefully!" These words were reported in newspapers and periodicals after the president discussed with Professor X Part of the deal, which also happens to be this statement from the President.

It has to be said that these words perfectly blocked the reporter's mouth.

"I really like Iron Man a little bit." Xiaoyu said to herself.

Just as she was engrossed in watching, there was a sudden commotion in the center of Times Square.

A blond young man in casual clothes ran out of a building. He stood barefoot in the center of Times Square, looking around the place with a dazed and cold expression.

The blond young man is obviously a trainer, the light-colored close-fitting shirt outlines the young man's strong upper body, the muscle lines on the arms and the obvious chest and abdominal muscles are enough to make every girl crazy.

Xiaoyu lowered the car window, pointed her head at the young man standing next to her sports car and asked, "Do you need help? You don't look very good."

She immediately spotted the agents mixed into the crowd, and recognized that those agents probably belonged to S.H.I.E.L.D.

Now Xiaoyu has been exposed to the authorities, but the officials at most believe that Xiaoyu is a mutant and a member of the X-Men. After Professor X signed the agreement with the president, Xiaoyu was just an ordinary citizen with a mutant identity.It is normal for an ordinary citizen to help a person in need!

Steve Captain America Rogers looked at the obviously malicious enemies on the opposite side, and then at the delicate girl in front of him, he was a little uncertain for a while.

"It seems that you really need help, come on." Xiaoyu's amber pupils flashed a hint of cunning, she opened the door of the passenger seat, and invited this ordinary person in need of help to get in the car.

"Every ordinary American citizen is as enthusiastic as I am." Xiaoyu blinked at him, and when she saw the blond young man got into the car, she stepped on the gas pedal fiercely, "Travel safely, and don't forget to fasten your seat belt. "

The performance of the specially modified sports cars far exceeds that of ordinary cars. Almost when Steve Rogers just put on his seat belt, they have rushed out of the encirclement and headed to the road.

Through the front mirror, Xiaoyu could clearly see a few black cars chasing them behind. She let down a bunch of her hair, glanced at the passenger seat, and looked out of the car window in shock. The blond young man in the scenery "My friend, what good thing did you do to make those guys follow you?"

"...I, I don't know...I'm not sure." Steve said, "Where is this place?"

"United States, Manhattan, New York, the place where you were standing just now is Times Square, the crossroads of the world." Xiaoyu glanced at the car that was getting closer to the rear of her car in the front mirror. The car stepped on the gas pedal again, and the sports car drove away the black car behind again.

"Manhattan... I don't know how to describe all of this, by the way, my name is Steve Rogers, can you take me..." Before Steve finished speaking, Xiaoyu's hand on the steering wheel trembled " Steve Rogers!?" she broke out.

"Yes, you know me?" This girl has also seen the promotional video he starred in?

"Uh huh, let me prove that I'm not thinking too much... Uh, Captain America?" Xiaoyu asked tentatively.

"Have you heard of this title... Yes, I am!" His blue-gray eyes changed from a little shy to full of determination. To him, the title 'Captain America' not only represents status, It also represents his belief and persistence.

Jade didn't doubt what Steve said, no matter how ridiculous it sounded.

"Then Cap, I think you have to accept this reality." Xiaoyu licked her dry lips, moved one hand from the steering wheel to the player button next to it, and a translucent silver-blue screen emerged On the top of their front, there is today's date and a picture that looks like a computer screen.

"It's 2013, 70 years later."

"...Are you, aren't you kidding me?" Steve Rogers said with some difficulty.

Xiaoyu tapped her finger on the screen, and the information about Captain America popped up. "No. Welcome to 70 years later, Cap."

"Everyone thought you died in a plane crash." Xiaoyu said, stepping on the gas pedal again, completely throwing off the black car behind.

The car drove to a parking lot, avoiding the video camera, Xiaoyu pressed a button next to the player, and the dazzling blue sports car instantly turned into an ordinary black Toyota MPV, the license plate was changed, and even the window on the window A solar film is also attached.After waiting for a while, Xiaoyu followed the ordinary car slowly when she saw a car driving out from the parking lot.

"Do you know who those people are?" Along the way, if Steve Rogers didn't discover Xiaoyu's specialness again, then he really has been Captain America for so long.

His intuition told him that the girl was not malicious.

"I'm afraid they are the ones who dug you out. In this case, they are either people of the country or your enemies." Xiaoyu didn't say anything about S.H.I.E.L.D.

Steve felt that what she said was very reasonable, if they were from the country, it would be fine, but if they were from Hydra, then he really fell into the trap of thieves.Now follow her and leave here first, let's talk after a little rectification.

"Where are we going?"

"Go to my brother." Xiaoyu grinned at him and said, "By the way, I haven't introduced it yet, have I? My name is Jade Chan, and I'm an archaeologist."
