“One more person.” Ye Feng looked at his watch. It was now around 6:20 PM, there were still ten minutes to the agreed time, and Lan Xingyue had not arrived yet.
Could it be that she sensed something and didn’t dare to come?
However, he was obviously wrong. When it was close to thirty minutes past six, he saw a jeep speeding over from afar and then stopping in front of them.
Lan Xingyue was dressed in blue outdoor gear and jumped out of the car. “I’m sorry. Something came up at the last minute and I was delayed. Am I late?”
“No, it’s exactly 6:30.” Ye Feng smiled at her.
It had to be said that Lan Xingyue was not inferior to beauties like Xu Jingxin and Fuuma Jianwu in terms of appearance.
Ye Feng could not help but sigh in his heart. She was a beauty, why did she become a thief?
“Let me introduce everyone.”
Under Ye Feng’s introduction, everyone greeted each other.
However, everyone was not very familiar with each other, so the scene was somewhat awkward.
However, when it came to Fuuma Jianwu’s introduction, before he could say anything, the girl had already extended her hand out. “Hello, my name is Zhuang Xiaoqiao. Nice to meet you.”
Lan Xingyue was stunned for a moment and hurriedly reached out to grab it. “Hello, my name is Lan Xingyue.”
“I know of you, Ye Feng often mentions you, saying that you are a geologist, that you are both beautiful and intelligent. Seeing you today, hmm… You’re a little less good-looking than me.”
Fuuma Jianwu had completely portrayed Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s shameless essence.
If Zhuang Xiaoqiao herself was here, she would probably exclaim, “F*ck!”
Lan Xingyue obviously couldn’t stand her social skills and quickly changed the topic. “What did you bring?”
She pointed at Ye Feng’s bulging backpack, feeling curious.
Ye Feng opened his backpack and took out the tools one by one. “Whirlwind Shovel, Flying Tiger Claw, Centipede Hanging Mountain Ladder, Luoyang Shovel, gas masks, Dragon Seeking Ruler…”
“There are also two big roosters.” Fuuma Jianwu grabbed the two roosters that were thrown on the ground and waved them in front of Lan Xingyue.
Lan Xingyue was shocked. “Why did you bring these things?”
Fuuma Jianwu immediately started to talk, she started to show off the knowledge she had learned from Ye Feng. “This Whirlwind Shovel is used to dig holes, this Flying Tiger Claw is used to grab things from afar, it can also be used to climb…”
Lan Xingyue was getting more and more confused. “Are we going to rob a tomb?”
Only then did Ye Feng reveal the purpose of this trip. “That’s right, we are going to search for treasure, and it is Xiang Yu’s treasure trove.”
“The legendary Xiang King’s secret treasure.”
Xu Jingxin, Fuuma Jianwu, Ah Can, and the Sky Wolf team had already known about the contents of this mission.
Lan Xingyue was either pretending or not, but she looked very surprised. “Xiang Yu’s secret treasure? Are we really going treasure hunting?”
Ye Feng slowly walked in front of her. “Yes, is there a problem?”
Lan Xingyue was in a difficult position. “It’s mainly because this news is too sudden. I thought it was just an ordinary exploration mission. I didn’t expect…”
“It’s okay. If you regret it, you can quit now. I won’t force you.”
Ye Feng spread out his hands and put on a casual stance.
“That’s not what I meant.” Lan Xingyue pondered for a moment. “It’s just that I don’t know anything about this kind of thing. I’m afraid I can’t help you much.”
“Since I’ve invited you, there’s naturally something I can use you for. You only need to consider whether you want to join.”
“I… Can I consider it?”
“No problem.”
Ye Feng was not in a hurry, he leaned against the Land Rover and smoked, secretly observing her every move.
Lan Xingyue frowned and thought for a while before giving her final answer. “Alright then. Since I’m already here, I’ll take it as it is. I have no choice but to do this.”
Ye Feng smiled in satisfaction. “That’s right. This Xiang King’s secret treasure has attracted the covetous eyes of many people. Aren’t you curious about what’s inside?”
“I’m not interested in these things.” Lan Xingyue put on a nonchalant expression.
Ye Feng did not mind, he then gave a few instructions to everyone, mostly telling them to listen to his commands.
Then, he waved his hand. “Let’s go.”
Everyone got into their cars and headed for their destination.
When Lan Xingyue returned to her car, a faint smile flashed across her lips.
Although this smile was fleeting, it was still captured by Ye Feng who had already gotten into the car.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Didn’t she say that she wasn’t interested in the Xiang King’s secret treasure?
Why was she so happy now?
However, she seemed to be happy too early.
The convoy traveled all the way and finally arrived at the piece of land that Ye Feng bought before night fell.
Everyone got out of the cars one after another and looked around curiously.
“Isn’t this the piece of land we explored before?” Lan Xingyue looked at Ye Feng in shock.
Last time, they had chosen a total of three exploration sites, and this was one of them.
But in the end, Ye Feng stopped her.
“That’s right, this is the place. You didn’t expect this, did you?” Ye Feng revealed a proud smile.
“The Xiang King’s secret treasure you mentioned is here?”
“That’s right.”
At this point, Ye Feng did not need to hide anymore, he nodded and admitted it.
Lan Xingyue looked at him blankly, not knowing what to say.
Xu Jingxin asked curiously, “This place is so big. How are we going to find the entrance? We can’t possibly dig up this entire piece of land, right?”
Ye Feng silently opened his backpack and took out the Dragon Seeking Ruler. “Then we will have to use this tool to help.”
“How do we use this?” Xu Jingxin immediately turned to look at Ah Can. He was the most professional expert in this group.
The others also looked at Ah Can, waiting for his answer.
Ah Can laughed awkwardly. “Don’t look at me. I don’t understand either.”
“You are the king of thieves, how could you not understand?” Fuuma Jianwu asked curiously.
“It’s true that I’m the king of thieves, but I steal from the living, not the dead.” Ah Can smiled helplessly.
“What’s the difference?” Lan Xingyue’s tone carried a hint of disdain.
“The difference is huge. Although it’s all ‘stealing,’ we only need to check the location, we don’t need to do divination to find the place.” Ah Can explained patiently.
“Then what should we do now?”
Everyone looked at Ye Feng, since he was the one who organized this mission, he should have made all the necessary preparations.
“Don’t worry. He doesn’t understand. I do.”
Ye Feng revealed an unfathomable smile, he really had the aura of a master.
As he spoke, he brought the Dragon Seeking Ruler in front of everyone. “Everyone, look. Right now, this Dragon Seeking Ruler is still sleeping. What we need to do next is to awaken it.”
Everyone was attracted by his words and looked over curiously.
Ye Feng placed the Dragon Seeking Ruler on his forehead. “First, I need to connect my thoughts with the Dragon Seeking Ruler. I need to infuse my mental energy into it and summon it gently, right, that’s it…”
