If you want to take a taxi in New York, you basically have to hail a taxi on the roadside, and the price is extremely expensive.

Fortunately, Xia Shang is located in the city center, and the number of taxis is quite large. If it were placed in some remote areas, it is estimated that there may not even be a taxi passing by after half an hour, so this is why most families in the United States choose to buy a car. one.

"Man, are you going to Chinatown?" An orange taxi stopped in front of Xia Shang. The driver seemed to be Chinese.

"No, go directly to this address."

Xia Shang showed the address on his phone to the driver.

"OK, we can get there in half an hour." The driver was obviously familiar with New York's terrain.

"Are you Chinese?" the driver asked as soon as he got in the car.

"My family immigrated to the United States more than ten years ago."

"Then you speak Chinese well." Talkativeness may be a characteristic of most drivers, and the one next to Xia Shang is like this.

The driver chatted with Xia Shang while driving, and Xia Shang didn't object to this.

"Wow, you are actually an employee of Watt Company. My son likes the people from the motherland of our company very much. The people from the motherland are his idols. By the way, do you have the signature of the people from the motherland? I can buy it for $200."

Xia Shang saw a lot of superhero stickers in the car. It has to be said that Walter Company's marketing capabilities are really strong. Throughout New York, there are traces of superheroes almost everywhere, whether it is street billboards, Or on the packaging of drinks, superheroes can be said to be pervasive.

"I don't have an autograph from my motherland, but I have a ticket for his fan meeting."

This ticket was an internal benefit for Walter employees. It was usually given to relatives and children at home, but Xia Shang couldn't use it, so he took out the ticket and handed it to the driver. Originally, the driver wanted to pay for it, but Xia Shang refused.

He can get this thing every few days, especially since there are many ticket thieves from the motherland.

There is a saying that the people of the motherland are good to their fans. Of course, the premise is that he is in a good mood. He seems to enjoy the feeling of being respected.

"And you, my friend, you are the real hero." The driver drove with one hand and learned the mantra of the motherland.

Xia Shang got out of the car, and the driver didn't ask for his fare. Instead, he gave Xia Shang his phone number and asked him to just call him next time he needed a ride.

The sword master is an old man with a gray beard. The layout of his gym is a bit like Taekwondo, which is very clean and tidy.

After changing his clothes, Xia Shang and a dozen other students waited for the arrival of the sword master Jason.

The next second, there were bursts of exclamations from the students beside Xia Shang.

"Queen Maeve!" Many of the students were fans of Maeve, so they were very excited when they saw Queen Maeve appear in the gym. Many of them even screamed. In contrast, Xia Shang was Seems quite calm.

Maeve, who is tall and tall, enthusiastically took photos with fans. It is obvious that she is already comfortable with such small scenes.

"Master Jason used to be my teacher, so I came here specially to visit him."

Maeve explained why she was here.

At this time, the camera behind her kept making the sound of pressing the shutter. In fact, it is not difficult to see that this is just a premeditated marketing campaign. After all, the Walter Group has a large stake in this gym.

"Maeve, the hustle and bustle of the world has destroyed your heart of wanting to become stronger. You have disappointed me." Swordsman Master Jason, although short in stature, stood upright, just standing there, It gives people a very strong sense of oppression.

Jason's words suddenly froze the smile on Maeve's face, and she had no choice but to comb her brown-red hair in embarrassment.

The staff behind her saw this and immediately led people out of the gym.

Xia Shang vaguely remembered that Maeve's character was not bad, but after spending a long time with those superheroes, she inevitably picked up some bad habits.

"Let me see how much of the swordsmanship I taught you is left." Master Jason threw the wooden sword in his hand to Maeve.

After Maeve took the wooden sword, she stabbed it towards the rubber target.

I saw that the extremely tough rubber doll was instantly pierced. This power made Xia Shang who was watching on the side very jealous.

"You are still half an inch away from the heart. You can pierce the doll only because of your brute strength. Your control of your own power is not as good as that of a new student who has been here for less than a month." Jason scolded mercilessly. road.

"How is that possible?" Maeve frowned, not believing that a student who had only practiced for a month could surpass her.

Oops!

As soon as Master Jason finished speaking, Xia Shang, who was trying his best to reduce his presence, felt something bad.

Sure enough, Jason's hawk-like gaze quickly found Xia Shang among the crowd.

"Xia, come and demonstrate your sword skills."

Facing his favorite disciple, Master Jason's attitude was obviously much better, and even his expression became kind.

There was no other way, Xia Shang had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk out of the crowd.

"Have I seen you before somewhere?" Maeve looked familiar to the Asian boy in front of her, as if she had seen you before somewhere.

"A month ago, I played a robber in a skit you filmed."

"So it's you." Well, even if Xia Shang said this, Maeve still didn't remember it. Just like Asians have difficulty in recognizing the appearance of Westerners, Westerners can't tell what Asians look like at all.

Seeing the confusion in Queen Maeve's eyes, Xia Shang knew that the other party had definitely forgotten who he was.

Xia Shang picked up the wooden sword, stepped on the soft rubber mat, flicked the sword in a flash, and then slashed or stabbed the doll several times. His movements were so fast that most people didn't even see them clearly, only a few of them were seen. A wisp of sword light floated through the air.

Only Maeve, whose dynamic vision is extraordinary than ordinary people, can completely see Xia Shang's movements.

"The eyebrows, throat, and heart are all fatal injuries. The control of the strength is just right." Maeve said softly with serious eyes.

"Yes, the movements are very fast, and there is no sloppiness. The only thing lacking now is actual combat." Master Jason nodded with satisfaction. To be honest, he felt that Xia Shang now is like Maeve a few years ago, with swordsmanship His talent in this field is equally astonishing, and Xia Shang's lethality is even stronger, making him more suitable for actual combat.

"Your swordsmanship is indeed very good."

Maeve extended her left hand to Xia Shang, "Are you interested in participating in the superhero selection competition?"

Xia Shang didn't expect that Maeve would throw an olive branch to him. He immediately felt his scalp numb, and even imagined in his mind that someone else was introducing his sword to the people of the motherland, but he was shot through by a laser from the motherland, and Said: "I believe that nothing can be faster than laser."

"It still doesn't work. I don't have this idea for the time being." Xia Shang hurriedly refused.
