"Can I send you home? It might be raining outside. Can I give you a hug like a friend? The distance between us..."
Tang Rui, who was still thinking about what he had just heard about the ancient monument, was awakened by the ringtone of his phone.
Tang Rui looked at the contact displayed on the phone, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly. He could not help but smile faintly.
"Jiayu, long time no see!"
"Tang…Tang Rui? Was it you? Ahhh…I finally got through. Do you know how long I've been looking for you? I call you every day, but you don't pick up. Where did you go?”
As soon as the call was connected, an excited voice with a hint of blame and concern came through.
It could be seen that in the half a month that he had disappeared, not only was Zhāng Ylike this, but even Yu Jiayu had been worried sick.
Zhāng Yhad a favor to ask of him, and Yu Jiayu was simply concerned.
"It's fine. Don't worry. He was just relaxing outside and had been staying on the mountain. There was no place to charge, so he simply turned off his phone.”
Tang Rui could only tell a small lie. He couldn't tell the truth and no one would believe him.
"That's good, that's good. I was afraid something had happened to you! Where are you now? When are you coming back?"
Yu Jiayu finally let out a sigh of relief and asked.
"I just came back. I'm at the Gu Dao Book Bar at the south gate of the school now.”
"What is it? You're back? Why didn't you tell me? I'll go pick you up. Wait a moment. I'll go find you now. Don't run around. Hmph, you didn't even tell me you were coming back. You're going to treat me to a meal later!”
"Alright!"
Tang Rui smiled helplessly and then agreed.
Hearing Tang Rui's agreement, Yu Jiayu was instantly in a great mood. She was overjoyed and hung up the phone before rushing over to Gu Dao Book Bar.
As they were very close, Yu Jiayu arrived in no time.
For Tang Rui, the two of them had not seen each other for a long time. After all, they had stayed in that world for a year.
"Tang Rui, why did you drop out of school? Is there any difficulty? Can you tell me? I'll definitely be able to help!”
The moment they met, Yu Jiayu asked the question that she had been waiting for the answer to when she heard that Tang Rui had dropped out of school.
"I'm really fine. I'm just tired. I'll take a break from school and do what I want to do. What about you? How have you been recently?"
"I'm still the same. There are many things to do every day…"
Yu Jiayu was completely relieved after hearing that Tang Rui was fine. She then started to talk to him about what had happened in school these past few days, as well as some of her own matters.
Unknowingly, the golden crow descended from the west and the jade rabbit rose from the east. In the blink of an eye, a few hours had passed and it was night.
After the two of them finished their meal and sent Yu Jiayu back, Tang Rui suddenly thought of the world today. Ancient ruins kept appearing in various places and countries. There were good and bad things about this.
However, it was undeniable that the world was about to usher in a great change. Regardless of the final outcome, it was best to make plans for the good friends around him.
"Jiayu, do you want to learn martial arts?" Tang Rui looked at Yu Jiayu, who seemed to have endless words to say, and asked seriously.
"Learn martial arts? Or dance? I've been practicing dancing, but I've never joined any clubs to practice martial arts. What's wrong? Do you want to ask me to practice martial arts with you?”
Yu Jiayu suddenly said with anticipation.
"It's martial arts! But we won't be practicing together. I'll teach you. Are you interested in learning?”Tang Rui smiled helplessly and said,"This way, I can become stronger and protect myself."”
"You're teaching me? Alright, alright, learn! Why not? Actually, I still want to learn martial arts. I'm a heroine and handsome! But…since when did you learn martial arts? How come none of us know? Oh, right, you worked in a bar before. The security guard must have taught you.”
Yu Jiayu happily agreed, and then she started to gossip.
"No, I learned it from a master a long time ago." Tang Rui shook his head. Then I'll teach you when I come back in two days.”
"Hmm? Are you leaving again? I just got back. I was going to ask you out tomorrow for the weekend.”Yu Jiayu was a little disappointed when she heard that Tang Rui was leaving tomorrow.
"I'm going to Lin Cang, Yunnan, tomorrow to help a friend.”
"Okay, then you have to be careful. If there's anything, give me a call. I'll definitely be able to fly over to help you.”
Yu Jiayu joked as she immediately regained her composure. This type of girl was actually quite good. Her depression came and went quickly.
After sending Yu Jiayu back to the dormitory, Tang Rui went straight to the Inch Grass Hu Park to take a look at the training ground where he had been practicing his fist technique…
Early the next morning, when Tang Rui came back from practicing boxing in the small park at Inch Grass Lake, Zhāng Ywas already waiting for him in front of his door.
"Instructor! Let's go."
Zhāng Y's eyes lit up when he saw Tang Rui coming back. He handed him the breakfast he bought on the way here.
Then, Tang Rui and Zhang Ye rushed to the airport and embarked on a trip to Lin Cang, Yunnan, to see the so-called ancient ruins.
At noon, the two of them arrived at Lin Cang. The person who greeted them at the airport was Xiao Tianming, whom they hadn't seen for a long time.
After exchanging pleasantries with Tang Rui, the three of them could not wait to go straight to Lancang River.
The Lancang River was the name of the upper reaches of the Mekong River in China. In Tibetan, it was Lachu, meaning "Zhangzi River". It was also one of the great rivers in the southwest region of China. It was the seventh longest river in the world, the third longest river in Asia, and the longest river in Southeast Asia.
It flows through Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, and South Vietnam, and flows into the South China Sea in South Vietnam's Ho Chi City. It has the reputation of the Eastern Danube River.
There are two sources in the upper reaches of Lancang River: the North is called Zaquhe River and the south is called Xiemuqu River.
The upper and middle reaches of the Lancang River passed through the Hengduan Mountain Range. The river was deep, forming a V-shaped canyon with steep slopes.
The place where the ancient monument was discovered was in the middle reaches of the Lancang River, in a high mountain that was only a mile away from the Lancang River.
A small path had been developed in the mountain for government workers to go up and down the mountain. It was very convenient to transport equipment and enter and exit.
When they arrived at the destination, Tang Rui finally knew how much importance the country attached to this ancient monument. Not to mention the two regiments of troops stationed around the ancient monument, there were dozens of surveillance drones in the sky that were monitoring the surrounding situation in all directions without blind spots. Every five steps, fully armed soldiers and military dogs seriously checked the surrounding safety situation...
At the intersection where they entered the ruins, a group of scholars in white coats were busy fiddling with a large number of precision instruments.
There were only four people working at the entrance to the fourth level of the ruins.
"Professor Deng, I've invited someone over. Mr. Tang will help us break through in a while.”
Xiao Tianming said respectfully to the oldest scholar with white hair.
Deng Xianqing raised his head and looked away from the giant stone tablet that he had been observing with a magnifying glass. Then, he carefully sized up Tang Rui." Hmm... He's reserved, and his bearing is extraordinary. He has the demeanor of a warrior who's as unmovable as a mountain. Mr. Tang is a good man. I'll leave it to you then!"”
He was a leading figure in the field of archaeology. Even the leaders of the country would respectfully address him as Elder Deng. The antiques and cultural relics that he had excavated in his life were immeasurable in terms of price and cultural value. They had made great contributions to the protection of national cultural relics.
His eyes were sharp. Whether it was looking at people or historical relics, if he said it was good, he was 100% sure.
"Greetings, Elder Deng. I will definitely do my best!”
Tang Rui cupped his fist and saluted. On the way here, Zhang Ye and Xiao Tianming had told him about Deng Xianqing's deeds and character. He knew the old man's character and ability. He was naturally a respectable old man.
