“Lu Ye, Hu Ba Yi is staying in this courtyard.”
“Go in.”
Although initially Hu Ba Yi didn't want to go tomb raiding, he was provoked by Da Jin Ya, wanting to collect some treasures to earn money, and after thinking for a few days, he set off for the Niu Xin Mountain in Inner Mongolia.
He knew the Jin Dynasty General's Tomb was in the Wildman Ravine.
The problem was that the Wildman Ravine was a primeval jungle. With his strength, he wouldn't be unable to get out, but finding the General's Tomb would take an unknown number of days.
Bringing Hu Ba Yi, Wang Pangzi and Yingzi along wouldn't require any effort, why not?
Lu Feng entered the courtyard, just seeing two men organizing things in the yard, a large number of tapes and discs being packed into boxes.
“Hu Ye, Pang Ye, what are you two doing?”
Da Jin Ya walked towards the two, greeting them enthusiastically.
“Jin Ye.”
Hu Ba Yi looked up, realizing it was Da Jin Ya, immediately put down the disc in his hand, and asked in confusion: “How come you’re here?”
“Jin Ye, what brings you here? Are you going to treat us to mutton again?” Wang Pangzi laughed.
Da Jin Ya chuckled, gesturing towards Lu Feng: “I’m here to bring someone to find you, here, this is him, Lu Feng.”
Hu Ba Yi and Wang Pangzi looked at each other with confusion: “This friend, do we know him?”
“My name is Lu Feng, it’s normal that you don’t know me. I know you, I’m passing through Beijing and came here specifically to find you.”
“Specifically to find us?”
Lu Feng frowned: “Are you going to discuss this here?”
Hu Ba Yi was stunned, then realized, and apologized: “Look at me… please come in!”
“Alright.”
Lu Feng followed Hu Ba Yi into the house.
The room was furnished with two beds, a wardrobe, and a floor-to-ceiling cupboard.
Various discs and tapes were piled in a corner, not only was the space cramped, it also had to double as a living room and dining room, making it quite simple.
Two grown men squeezed into a room of thirty square meters, clearly their lives weren't easy.
“Jin Ye, Lu Xiong, sit down.”
Wang Pangzi brought over a few chairs and poured two bowls of water: “My place is a bit small, you two make do with it.”
“No problem.”
After Lu Feng sat down, he said to Hu Ba Yi: “Are you planning on going on a long trip recently?”
“Long trip?”
Hu Ba Yi was startled for a moment, subconsciously looking at Wang Pangzi, but saw Wang Pangzi's dumbfounded expression, then answered: “Lu Xiong, why do you say that?”
“I want to go to Niu Xin Mountain, but I don’t know the way.”
Wang Pangzi was shocked, how coincidental was this?
Hu Ba Yi's expression became strange, going to Niu Xin Mountain was only decided last night, nobody had mentioned it to anyone else, and now someone suddenly comes up to them wanting to go to Niu Xin Mountain?
“What are you doing going to Niu Xin Mountain, Lu Xiong?”
“Getting some ancient artifacts.”
“You!”
Hu Ba Yi's eyes narrowed, realizing Lu Feng was a tomb raider: “Why are you looking for us in Niu Xin Mountain? You can just go yourself.”
“I want to hire you to go with me.” Lu Feng said.
Hu Ba Yi and Wang Pangzi were both stunned.
How could there be such a coincidence in the world?
“Why are you looking for us?” Hu Ba Yi asked in confusion.
“Because you’re also going to Niu Xin Mountain.” Lu Feng said.
Hu Ba Yi and Wang Pangzi both looked at each other, confirming that the other hadn’t mentioned going to Niu Xin Mountain to anyone, their faces both showing disbelief.
“How do you know?”
“Dream.”
“What?”
“I had a dream, I dreamt you going to Niu Xin Mountain to collect antiques.”
Whoosh!!
Hu Ba Yi and Wang Pangzi suddenly stood up, looking at Lu Feng like he was a ghost: “How is this possible? Are you human or a ghost?”
Da Jin Ya watched in surprise.
He was right?
Was there really such a coincidental dream?
What was even more strange was that Lu Feng actually believed a dream?
“Of course I’m human, it’s just that the dream was too real, so I came looking for you.” Lu Feng attributed everything to premonition, after all, others couldn’t prove it.
Hu Ba Yi's brow furrowed slightly, he had heard many bizarre stories from his grandfather, and knew that some people could seem to calculate the future.
Wang Pangzi said: “Lao Hu, do you believe him?”
“In the past there was King Wen of Zhou who divined the flying bear (Jiang Ziya), Yan Jun Ping predicted Wang Mang’s downfall and Guang Wu’s rise to power, we can’t prove these things false.”
“Really or not?”
Wang Pangzi looked unconvinced.
Hu Ba Yi didn’t answer him, but looked at Lu Feng and said: “Regardless of whether you have precognitive abilities, what are you doing going to Niu Xin Mountain?”
Finding that Hu Ba Yi and the others weren’t digging deeper, Lu Feng was happy to see this.
He immediately said:
“The Tangshan earthquake exposed the tomb of the Liao Empress in Niu Xin Mountain, the archaeological team must have gone to Niu Xin Mountain, those antiques were handed over to the village head.”
“This trip of yours is bound to be fruitless in terms of antiques.”
“And I can lead you to find antiques.”
“……”
Hu Ba Yi and Wang Pangzi both had a dumbfounded expression.
They hadn't revealed a single word about going to Niu Xin Mountain to collect antiques.
Could it be?
Could Lu Feng really have premonition?
Lu Feng wasn’t in a hurry, waiting for Hu Ba Yi and Wang Pangzi to regain their senses.
“You really can lead us to find antiques.”
Wang Pangzi couldn’t hold back his excitement, he quietly nudged Hu Ba Yi: “Lao Hu, let’s agree to him first, then we’ll see if he’s telling the truth when we reach Niu Xin Mountain, we won’t lose anything anyway.”
Hu Ba Yi thought so too, but he was still curious: “How can you be sure you can find antiques?”
“Because I saw it.”
“You saw it?”
“Yes.”
“……”
Not only Hu Ba Yi and Wang Pangzi were dumbfounded, even Da Jin Ya showed disbelief, wouldn’t he have been rich by now if he had this ability?
Hu Ba Yi was still considering, hesitant.
Lu Feng decided to add fuel to the fire: “Hu Ba Yi, with the little money you’re earning now, how much can you help your comrades’ families?”
Swish!
Hu Ba Yi suddenly stood up, stared at Lu Feng deeply: “Alright, I agree!”
