As soon as the old man said this.
Wu Xie's heart tightened, and his expression became a little unnatural.
After all, it was a shady business.
It was inevitable that he felt guilty.
However, at times like this, one could see the difference in one's mentality.
Pan Zi and Dakui's thoughts were all on wine and meat.
Zhang Qi Ling had always been aloof and the old man couldn't understand his temper.
As for Zhou Mu, he was a little respectful from the bottom of his heart.
People from such remote mountainous areas.
He had a natural sense of respect for cultivators like monks.
Even though he looked a little too young.
However, she was dressed up.
Therefore, from the very beginning, he had asked Wu Sansheng.
The latter slowly picked up a piece of rabbit meat and threw it into his mouth. He then took a sip of wine and smiled.
"Old Master, we're an archaeological team from the province.”
"As you know, our country has thousands of years of history and a profound cultural heritage. However, the wars, wars, and thefts of the past dynasties have destroyed many ancient relics.”
"That's why the country set up an archaeological research institute to protect these ancient civilizations.”
"We were sent here to investigate."
Wu Sansheng opened his mouth and said it without leaking a drop of water.
There was no panic on his face.
Even when he talked about the robbery, his pained look did not seem to be faked at all.
Wu Xie was dumbfounded.
In his impression, Third Uncle had always been upright.
But now... this guy who lied without thinking had completely overturned his understanding.
What was there to fight for with this acting? It would be a waste of such talent if he did not film a movie.
"Of course I have to protect him."
"Otherwise, all the good things left behind by our ancestor will be ruined.”
The old man was stunned by his words.
He nodded subconsciously.
"By the way, Village Chief, are there any places of interest nearby?”
Wu Sansheng took advantage of the situation and picked up the wine jar to fill the village chief's cup.
"How can there be any historical sites in such a broken village?”
The old man waved his hand.
"Old Master, the scope of our work is only sceneries and historical sites, such as steles, ancient buildings, memorial archways, or ancient tombs.”
Pan Zi added.
However…
As soon as he finished speaking.
The village chief, who was still pondering, suddenly raised his head and revealed a puzzled expression.
"You guys are really archaeologists, not here to fight?”
pfff ~
Hearing this, Pan Zi couldn't hold it in.
He spat out all the wine he had just drunk.
Her face was red from coughing.
"I drank too much. Old Master, please don't blame me.”
Wu Xie was dumbstruck and didn't know what to do. Even Wu Sansheng had a strange look on his face.
In such a poor place.
It was a village that was hard to find on the map.
Even if the village chief could read and write, the word 'fight' was a jargon in the underworld, and not everyone knew about it.
"Alright, stop pretending."
The village chief looked as if he had seen through him long ago.
"Old Master, we're really here for archeology. If you don't believe me, this is my ID.”
Panzi panicked and took out a red booklet from his pocket.
It really did have the words " East Mountain Institute of Archeology " on it.
There was even his photo, name, age, and even position.
Everyone had a share of this.
Wu Sansheng asked someone to do it.
He had brought it with him when he came out of Hangzhou.
How could a veteran like him fail over such a small matter?
Unfortunately, the old man only casually flipped through it and threw it back on the table.
He picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"There's no one else here. I just thought that you young people were quite pleasing to the eye, so I advised you.”
"There's nothing you can do if you don't believe me."
Seeing that things had come to this.
Pan Zi didn't know how to respond.
Wu Xie didn't even dare to look up at the old man and pretended to know nothing.
Although Zhang Qi Ling didn't say anything, the change in his eyes revealed his thoughts.
Among the group of people at the table, only Zhou Mu was as calm as ever.
Wu Sansheng lit a cigarette.
With the help of the smoke.
He sized up the old man carefully.
Suddenly, he smiled." What's the situation? Old Master, tell us.”
"It's not really a secret."
Hearing the old man speak.
The others no longer had the mood to continue eating and drinking.
They pricked up their ears.
"A few years ago, when we were building the road, we encountered a landslide and dug out a huge cauldron.”
"Cauldron?"
Wu Sansheng narrowed his eyes.
This was a hot commodity.
Even he didn't dare to act recklessly.
Even if he caught ten of them, he wouldn't be able to kill them.
However, the bronze cauldron that was buried with them meant that they had come to the right place. It should be the tomb of the Warring States Period.
The others also thought of this, and their eyes became heated.
"What happened after that?"
"A group of experts came from the county and said that the cauldron was a national treasure.”
"They didn't continue digging?"
"Yes, I did. All the young men from the surrounding villages were hired to help. Do you know what they dug up?”
Hearing this.
The few of them could not help but look at each other.
It was as if a cat had scratched her heart.
His heart was itching.
Wu Xie was still young, so he asked impatiently.
"Village Chief, what did you dig out?”
The village chief seemed to have recalled something.
The corners of his mouth were trembling.
Deep fear appeared in his turbid eyes.
"I'm afraid you won't believe me if I tell you."
"But that place is very strange."
"We dug out more than a hundred heads!”
