"Old Hu, where are you going?”Wang Xuan suddenly roared and pulled Hu Yi back. It turned out that Hu Yi was about to walk out of the realgar's range without realizing it. There might be black snakes appearing outside at any time.
Hu Yiyi, who had regained his senses, looked at his position with a look of relief. Fortunately, Wang Xuan had pulled him back. Otherwise, he might have become the number one martyr in the team.
"Xuan Zi, thank you so much!"
"It's just a small matter. Who's the brother? Did you find anything?”
"It's over there. According to the stars in the sky, that's the best location in Jingjue City. However, I can't see what's over there now, so I can't tell exactly where it is.”
Hu Yi pointed at the vague ruins of buildings in the distance in front of him. He couldn't be sure where it was until he got closer.
However, it was too dangerous to go there at night. Due to the lack of food and water in the desert, there were definitely not many black snakes. However, just one was enough to kill everyone except Kaede Poisonous Island.
"Let's go over and take a look during the day. Old Hu, can you measure the feng shui during the day? If it really doesn't work out, we'll make a map of the situation there during the day and compare it with the map at night to find out where it is!”Yang Li suggested.
"That's a good suggestion. Let's do it this way. It's time-saving, energy-saving, and safe.”Wang Xuan immediately clapped his hands and cheered. Hu Yi had almost scared him to death just now. He did not want to hug Hu Yi's corpse and see the old man of the Hu family grieve and cry.
Hu Yi also nodded in agreement to this suggestion. It was not that he could not look at Feng Shui during the day, but there might be some mistakes in this desert. After all, it was not as easy to find a wind indicator in the desert during the day as it was at night. The terrain was really problematic.
After confirming the plan, Kaede Poisonous Island told them to turn around and disappear into the distance. Everyone was used to it and went about their own business.
When it was time to rest, Hu Yi and Wang Xuan were still sitting by the bonfire. Hu Yi would look at the compass and observe the stars, trying to narrow the scope of observation tomorrow as much as possible. As for Wang Xuan, he was worried that Hu Yiyi would accidentally run out of the realgar's range and be bitten to death by the black snake. He knew that when his brother was serious about something, he would subconsciously ignore certain things.
"Old Hu, you heard Ye just now, right? Brother Ye wants to take the Kunlun wood, and Professor Chen has agreed. Do you think we can take some gold, silver, jewelry, or something? After all, there must be one or two things in the Queen's funerary objects.”
Wang Xuan nudged Hu Yi with his elbow. Just now, Kaede Poisonous Island had signaled Ye Yixin to tell him about this matter directly before he left. This made Wang Xuan, who dreamed of getting rich, come to life. It shouldn't matter if one or two relatively worthless items were missing from Queen Jingjue's burial items!
"Xuan Zi, stop dreaming. Brother Ye is different from us.”
Hu Yi looked at the compass and checked the stars without even turning his head, directly dispelling half of Wang Xuan's enthusiasm.
"Old Hu, what do you think is different? We're both in the same team, so why is he different?”Wang Xuan asked gloomily.
"Have you counted how many times Brother Ye has saved us?”
"Can you count? If it weren't for Brother Ye, we would have died of thirst in the desert. These days, it's all thanks to Brother Ye's help that we didn't have to worry about water and food in the desert. Yesterday's Black Snake, today's Realgar Camp can be considered as lifesavers.”
Wang Xuan was relieved. He had almost been swallowed by quicksand four days ago, and Kaede Poisonous Island had saved him in time.
However, the next moment, Wang Xuan changed the topic." But this isn't a big deal. We saved the archeological team's life. Think about it, at the Kunlun Glacier, when we encountered the black sandstorm, if it wasn't for you, Old Hu, who found the lost Professor Chen, how could Professor Chen be standing here alive and kicking? We don't ask for the Kunlun wood that sounds like a rare treasure. It shouldn't be a problem for us to just take some gold, silver, and jewelry, right?”
"In that case, we really should have that thing!”Hu Yi nodded lightly, as if he agreed with Wang Xuan's words.
" Is that right?" Wang Xuan clapped his thigh and cheered.
However, before he could finish, Hu Yi said," But Xuan Zi, have you forgotten that we are Feng Shui experts hired by the archeological team? So, we are actually members of the archeological team. Those things are what we should do."”
"Brother Ye is different. Brother Ye only helped the archeological team because he followed me and learned the secret technique from my old man. He wasn't hired by the archeological team and didn't take their salary. Uh, he also didn't care about their US dollars. His position is different from the two of us, so Professor Chen gritted his teeth and agreed to his request.”
"Of course, there might be Professor Chen who thinks that the Kunlun wood is just an illusory legend. He thinks that Brother Ye didn't take it away when he saw the coffin of the Queen of Jingjue in the end, so the proportion of repaying the favor of saving his life is relatively small.”
It had to be said that Hu Yi had seen through Professor Chen very well. Professor Chen was the kind of stubborn old man who would risk his life for a cultural relic. The reason why he agreed to take the Kunlun wood from Poison Island Kaede was because he thought that the Kunlun wood was just an illusory legend. After all, it was too mystical.
"In other words, we won't be able to get any treasures!”Wang Xuan had an expression of despair as he fell back stiffly. His baby had turned into a bubble in just a few words.
"Xuan Zi, be content. Don't we still have US dollars? When we return, we'll be able to get the money.”
Hu Yi wanted to comfort Wang Xuan, but when he said that, Wang Xuan became even more depressed.
"Don't mention it. The tomb of the Queen of Exquisite is about to be found. At that time, any random item will cost several times the employment fee. In the past, I didn't care because I didn't think there was much hope of finding it.”
"Anyway, I, Hu Yi, will say this today. We can't take anything. After all, we were hired by others at a high price. We have to have credibility.”Hu Yi said with a straight face, giving Wang Xuan a death order.
"I know, I know. I definitely won't take it. I won't even go in. Don't call me when you're digging the sand tomorrow. If you can't take it even after you've contributed, you won't be in the mood to help. Let them do it themselves.”Wang Xuan vented the little emotions in his heart like a child.
Hu Yi was amused. He teased," It's fine if you don't go down. You don't have to help dig the sand. It's a pity that you won't be able to see the countless treasures piled up together. The treasures in Queen Jingjue's tomb are definitely piled up like mountains. Perhaps this is the decision you will regret the most in this life, the next life, and the next life after that."”
Hu Yiyi poked Wang Xuan's Achilles 'heel. Just as he said, Queen Jingjue's funerary objects were the scene he could not miss the most. He could not take them, but he did not even go in to take a look when he reached the door. He would definitely regret it when he returned.
"Alright, Brother Xuan, I'll go all out. It's just a bit of effort. Just treat it as a ticket to the tour.”Wang Xuan said in a muffled voice. His heart felt even more stifled. When he thought of looking at a treasure mountain but not being able to take it, he had the urge to vomit blood.
Wang Xuan and Hu Yi's voices were very soft. They also carefully looked around to see if there was anyone around, but they did not realize that there was a pair of incomparably clear eyes looking at them from the beginning to the end.
"Wang Xuan is greedy. I wonder if I can use him to force that guy away. The Kunlun wood can't be moved.”
The owner of this pair of eyes was thinking. She would not allow anyone to have any ideas about the Kunlun wood. That thing could not leave that position.
However, after thinking about it, she gave up on this idea because she couldn't guarantee that she could use money to persuade or seduce Wang Xuan. Although Wang Xuan wanted to get rich very much, he couldn't say anything to his brothers and friends. No matter how much money he had, he couldn't have bad intentions towards his friends. Just like how a word from Hu could dispel his thoughts of tidying up the Queen's funerary objects.
"No, this Wang Xuan will definitely not target Ye Feng, let's stick to the original plan, Ye Feng is just an ordinary person, he cannot resist its power.”
"But why do I have a weird feeling in my heart? Was there a problem somewhere that he couldn't hold on anymore?”
The clear eyes revealed an indescribable expression, like fear and worry. It was obvious that the owner of these eyes had thought of a very scary possibility.
Three hours later, Kaede Poisonous Island returned with a smile on his face. It seemed like something good had happened.
It turned out that everything he had asked Matsui to prepare was done. It couldn't be said that he didn't miss anything, but he had completed most of it.
At first, he had asked Matsui to complete it in 20 days. However, after Matsui learned that there was no need to keep it a secret, he entrusted most of the work to other units to collect it. Almost all the work was completed without using his own manpower. The only work left was to purchase some necessary samples (some were already out of production) and mail them out.
Hence, in less than half of the planned time, which was 10 days, the items that Kaede needed were delivered in large and small packages. The delivery location was not on the flagship island but in Anglis.
Kaede came back much later because of the goods. He only returned to the desert camp at around 12:30 am.
