In a clean tea room, Luo Feng and the ancient master sat cross-legged, separated by a low table, on which was a set of precious antique tea sets, and the small stove was red, boiling the permafrost spring water from the Himalayas.

Luo Feng showcased his exquisite tea art and served a cup of fragrant tea to the ancient master.

The two picked up the teacup, wiped the matcha powder with the teacup lid, drank a sip of fragrant tea, and looked at each other and smiled.

"Director Luo also likes the tea ceremony, the tea you brought is indeed good tea, three hundred years ago I picked tea leaves on those mother trees, and now I taste it again, and the aftertaste is long."

Master Gu Yi said with a smile.

"Where is it, the ancient master Fang Outside, what immortal tea god wine in the multiverse has not tasted? It's good that the ordinary tea can be respected. ”

Luo Feng hurriedly waved his hand and thanked him.

"Director Luo......"

Luo Feng waved his hand again and said humbly: "Hey, Hugh wants to call it like this, it's really embarrassing, Brother Yao can call it the next little brother." ”

"How can this be, you and I are both cultivators, how old is the old man, so let's call Director Luo Xiaoyou."

"Then the little brother will call the ancient master the first senior Yao."

According to the background of the two, the ancient master is more than 500 years old, and he was born in the Ming Dynasty, and Luo Feng set himself to be more than 100 years old, born in the late Qing Dynasty, and both of them are Chinese, so the conversation is naturally full of ancient charm.

The magic of the ancient master also follows the laws of nature and is naturally in harmony with the Tao, which can be regarded as half a cultivator.

Luo Feng entered the Tao with martial arts, reached the innate realm, the internal circulation of true qi turned into external circulation, and he always exhaled the innate true qi, with the natural charm of heaven and earth on his body, and his spiritual aura was fully expanded.

Gu Yi had a good impression of Luo Feng, and the two sat down and drank tea, and talked about the old things in China, but they also slowly narrowed the distance.

After chatting about the same, Luo Feng turned to the topic: "Senior Yao, junior brother, I was recently appointed by the state to serve as the director of the S.H.I.E.L.D. Bureau, this position is aimed at protecting the earth from the threat of transcendent criminals and alien enemies to the earth. ”

The ancient master stroked his beard and said: "Luo Xiaoyou, for nearly a hundred years, you have been working hard to protect Huaxia, and I see it all. Nowadays, the responsibility of protecting the earth is greater, and it is really a virtuous person who is worried about the country and the people, and has a noble character. ”

"Shame shame!"

Luo Feng smiled bitterly: "The seniors praised it falsely, compared with the seniors, this is just a little thing, not enough to worry about." My predecessors became Supreme Mages and guarded the multiverse for hundreds of years, and they are our role models. ”

Humility, Luo Feng said with a straight face: "Senior Yao probably also knows a little, now the security situation on the earth is very urgent, and the alien invaders are sharpening their knives and trying to destroy our race and destroy my homeland for the sake of a few cosmic treasures that have fallen on the earth. Although I have tried my best to prepare for war, I also feel that it is difficult to resist the enemy outside the earth, and I want to ask for ...... at that time before I can avoid the destruction of the earth's lives."

Ancient One Mage sighed and said: "Luo Xiaoyou, as our ancient Chinese saying goes: 'Karma and karma have their own fixed number', my duty is to protect this universe from the destruction of multiverse invaders, but I can't interfere too much with the balance of the main universe, if the alien invaders come from other universes, I can take action, but if it is an evil overlord born in this universe, I can't help." Not to mention ......"

Speaking of this, the Ancient One Master paused for a moment before continuing: "I have passed away not long ago, and I am afraid that I will not be able to help if I want to. ”

As the supreme mage who holds the time gem, the Ancient One can foresee his own death, but he does not want to avoid it, if he changes the timeline to save his life, it will produce a time paradox and a time reversal, which will eventually affect or even destroy the entire universe.

"That's a shame." Luo Feng also looked a little gloomy: "If the predecessor dies, the younger brother loses a comrade-in-arms who guards the world, he is really a little overwhelmed, and it is difficult to support it alone." ”

Master Gu Yi smiled indifferently and said: "Time is like a wheel, spinning endlessly, and only death can give meaning to life." Luo Xiaoyou, as long as you always insist on taking the protection of the earth as the most important duty in your life, there will definitely be new comrades-in-arms by your side. ”

Luo Feng made a statement of acceptance when he heard this, and slowly bowed his head.

He suddenly said, "Ancient One, I understand your concerns about affecting the law of cause and effect of time, but I have a small proposal......

As he spoke, Luo Feng took out a purple elixir from his pocket and put it on the low table.

What kind of person is the Ancient One Master, he didn't need Luo Feng to explain, he already knew the cause and effect when he looked at the potion, and he couldn't help but laugh.

He laughed enough, shook his head and said, "Luo Xiaoyou, the old man has looked down on life and death, so don't make this kind of joke with the old man." ”

Luo Feng smiled awkwardly and said, "Senior, this elixir implies the power of rules, which can ignore the laws of time and not worry about causing a reverse tide of time. Senior, don't be in a hurry to refuse, just leave it with you, and when the time comes, can you make plans again? ”

Without waiting for Gu Yi to respond, Luo Feng immediately said: "I took out this serum, and I also wanted to make an exchange with you, so I used this serum in exchange for me to temporarily borrow your Agamoto Eye." ”

The Ancient One Master frowned and pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, little friend, this eye has a lot to do with it, and if something goes wrong, the multiverse will be affected." ”

Luo Feng waved his hand and said: "Master Guyi, I won't take this treasure away, just find a quiet room in the temple, and I can hold this treasure for a few hours." ”

"If only that'......"

Master Gu Yi pondered for a while, and nodded slowly: "Then it doesn't hurt to lend it to Xiaoyou." ”

Hearing that the Ancient One Master finally relented, Luo Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and his hanging heart fell to the ground, and the task of obtaining the Time Gem could be successfully completed.

If the Ancient One Master still refuses, Luo Feng can only wait for him to pass away, and then go to Doctor Strange Steve, who inherited his mantle, and borrow the gem with a shy face on the basis of saving his life, which can be regarded as being ready for both.

The Eye of Agamoto was not placed in the library like in the plot of the "Doctor Strange" movie, and it was hung on the neck of the ancient mage at the moment, since the ancient one agreed to borrow it temporarily, he did not delay and prevaricate, took off the necklace from his neck, handed it to Luo Feng, and asked Luo Feng to consult the treasures in this tea room.

When Gu Yi left the tea room, Luo Feng held Agamoto's eye and turned on the investigator's communicator.

Originally, it would have required a spell to open the Eye of Agamoto, but Luo Feng didn't need it, as soon as the communicator was turned on, the bronze metallic artifact eye began to rotate, and slowly opened, revealing the gem that shimmered green fluorescence inside.

Luo Feng immediately sensed that inexplicable fluctuations emanated from it, ripples rippled in the surrounding time and space, and the small tearoom was suddenly shrouded in the power of time.
