“Who is it?”
Dilireba asked.
“It’s me, Panzi.”
Panzi’s voice came from outside the door.
Dilireba was puzzled. What did he want from her?
So she asked: “Is there something you need from me?”
Panzi said: “Third Master wants you to come over for a bit.”
Dilireba was about to look for them anyway, so she opened the door and followed Panzi out of the room.
They soon met at the entrance of the guest house.
“Miss, how was your rest last night?”
Wu Sansheng said with a smile.
Dilireba said: “It was pretty good, how about you?”
Wu Sansheng smiled: “That’s good. Well then, let’s go.”
He winked at Panzi and Da Kui, then led the way out of the village.
Zhang Lin didn’t say anything, just silently followed Wu Sansheng.
Wu Tianzhen, however, said in confusion: “Third Uncle, is Reba coming with us too?”
Wu Sansheng said: “Don’t worry, we wouldn’t hurt her. She’s not safe alone in these mountains, it’s better if she comes with us.”
Wu Tianzhen was about to say something else, but Panzi said: “Little Three Master, just relax. Do you think we would harm an innocent person?”
Wu Tianzhen couldn’t say anything more, so he turned to comfort Dilireba: “Reba, don’t worry, we’re not bad people. We wouldn’t hurt you.”
Dilireba, however, didn’t seem to care: “I know you wouldn’t hurt me. Are you going to that Warring States tomb now?”
As soon as she said those words, Wu Sansheng and the others were startled and stopped in their tracks.
Wu Sansheng looked at Dilireba with sharp eyes: “How did you know that?”
Dilireba said earnestly: “Don’t go. It’s very dangerous. Do you know that the Warring States tomb has been declared a forbidden area by the Archaeological Institute?”
“Forbidden area by the Archaeological Institute?”
Wu Tianzhen was stunned and asked in confusion: “How do you know?”
Dilireba shook her head: “I can’t say, but I know an archaeological team went in five years ago and never came back. I think we should stay out!”
Because she was currently in 2003.
Zhang Boyu said it was 25 years ago, which was 5 years ago in the current year she was in!
She turned to Zhang Lin and waited for his reaction.
However, Zhang Lin acted as if he hadn’t heard her words and didn’t react at all.
This made Dilireba a little disappointed.
Wu Sansheng and Panzi exchanged glances.
They hadn’t expected Dilireba to know so much.
Wu Sansheng asked: “What else do you know?”
Dilireba shook her head: “I don’t know anything else.”
Wu Tianzhen asked: “Third Uncle, is what she said true?”
Wu Sansheng said: “I’ve heard relevant legends before, but it was just a legend after all. I don’t know if it’s true or not.”
He looked at Zhang Lin, wanting to ask for his opinion.
However, Zhang Lin ignored them and continued walking towards the edge of the village.
Seeing this, Wu Sansheng and Panzi couldn’t help but smile.
Wu Sansheng turned to Dilireba: “Miss, come with us. Once we find the Warring States tomb, you can wait for us outside.”
Obviously, Wu Sansheng was afraid that Dilireba would go to the police.
That’s why he asked Dilireba to come with them.
If Dilireba didn’t go, she probably wouldn’t be able to leave easily.
Dilireba was a little anxious and quickly chased after them, saying: “What I said is true. It’s really dangerous there. Don’t go!”
However, Dilireba’s persuasion didn’t have any effect. They left the mountain village in the blink of an eye.
“Tianzhen, try to persuade your Third Uncle and the others. It’s a suicide mission to go to that Warring States tomb.”
On the way, Dilireba continued to plead with them earnestly.
At that moment, Wu Sansheng said: “Miss, we have our reasons to go. Some things are not worth avoiding just because they are dangerous.”
He paused and smiled: “Besides, we have Xiao Ge. Even if that Warring States tomb is a dragon’s den, we can still make a run for it.”
Dilireba looked at Zhang Lin after hearing that.
Zhang Lin’s eyes were calm and expressionless.
Dilireba asked: “Little brother, do you have your reasons for going?”
For the first time ever, Zhang Lin nodded silently.
“Alright!”
Dilireba could only sigh helplessly and obediently followed behind Zhang Lin.
Professor Sun and Captain Xing watched this scene and felt a little helpless.
However, this outcome was within Professor Sun’s expectations.
After all, Wu Sansheng and the others were tomb raiders.
Those who worked in this line of business always lived dangerously.
How could they give up just because of a stranger’s words?
Professor Sun sighed, but a small sense of anticipation also arose in his heart.
After all, that was where his teacher disappeared.
If it wasn’t for the Archaeological Institute’s order, he would have gone in himself to see what happened and find out how Professor Chen disappeared.
Now that Zhang Lin and the others had entered the ancient tomb, perhaps they could solve this mystery.
“Captain Xing, have you found any information on Zhang Lin and the others yet?”
Professor Sun turned to Captain Xing beside him and asked.
This morning, he received an invitation from Captain Xing and came to the police station with Zhang Boyu to assist them.
Therefore, they were currently in the technical department of the police station together.
Captain Xing shook his head: “Their information is well hidden. We haven’t found anything yet, but I believe we will get news soon. We will definitely be able to find Zhang Lin then.”
Professor Sun could only nod.
As for Zhang Lin and the others, after leaving the village, they walked for more than four hours before finally stopping near a valley.
