Ella said apathetically, "You already have your own life, so you don't have to be stuck in the past anymore. After all, I'm no longer in the same circle as you."
Ella saw very clearly.
Even though He Yi Ning did not explain his identity, she had seen too many people. With one glance, he could tell that He Yi Ning was extraordinary and noble.
This kind of man was likely from an illustrious family with an honorable standing.
This kind of family would probably not accept having a dirty daughter-in-law, right?
Since his aunt couldn't give him anything, he should do what he could for her.
Shen Qi looked at her very sorrowfully: "Aunt is blaming me for not taking good care of daddy?"
Ella looked at Shen Qi speechlessly, not knowing what to say. She had never married in her life and had no children, so she didn't know how to communicate with her juniors.
She had spent her life dealing with archaeology.
The bones of the dead don't cry.
However, He Yi Ning understood Ella's meaning, and said while smiling: "Aunt, you're overthinking it, He Family does not have such a rule."
"He Family?" Ella's gaze instantly fell on He Yi Ning's body.
"Yes, my name is He Yi Ning." He Yi Ning looked straight at Ella.
"So it's you!" Ella was startled."I didn't expect you to be with my niece."
He Yi Ning slightly nodded his head, "Aunt, please be at ease. I will treat Xiao Qi well."
Ella smiled."That's good. However, you should leave as soon as possible. It won't be long before there's chaos here. In order to fight for the things underground, there had already been several cave robbers. It was only a matter of time before he would be in trouble. The situation would not be peaceful down there either. It's hard to say what will happen."
Shen Qi looked at her worriedly: "What about you?"
"It's my job." Ella explained, "Besides, it was my wish. I wanted to restore the dynasty that was once famous, and I wanted to restore that dynasty's culture. I can't go."
"But??" Shen Qi still wanted to persuade Ella.
At this time, someone came over from outside and greeted, "Ella, I heard that a guest has arrived?"
Ella's face changed as she heard the voice. She put the mask back on.
Shen Qi and He Yi Ning finally realised that when they first came in, she was wearing a mask, not to guard against them, but to guard against the people outside!
The tent was quickly opened and a tall Caucasian man came in.
The man's gaze swept across the people in the room and quickly fell on He Yi Ning's body.
He was clearly surprised as well."Mr. Hoh?"
He Yi Ning slightly nodded: "What might your esteemed self be called?"
The other party chuckled."Even though Mr. Hoh doesn't know me, I have admired and respected Mr. Hoh for a long time. You know Miss Ella? "
Before He Yi Ning could answer, Ella immediately replied back, "Not considered familiar, I have met her before."
Shen Qi was surprised, but immediately reacted.
His aunt had always kept secrets and secrets from these people, so she obviously had her own reasons.
Therefore, Shen Qi immediately explained: "I previously received help from Lady Ella, and I heard that she also came here, so I came here to greet her."
Ella was very satisfied with Shen Qi's reaction.
Very smart girl.
"Oh, I see. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Tang Mu Si, an American, a professional explorer and collector." The white man nodded at He Yi Ning and said: "I have always admired Mr. Hoh, I never expected to see him here. Mr. Hoh is also interested in the things here? "
"Not at all." He Yi Ning lazily replied: "I don't have any special obsession with antiques."
"That would be an honor. I thought I would miss out on the Baby! " After Tang Mu Si heard this, she let out a sigh of relief.
However, Tang Mu Si's next sentence, was: "But I still want to invite Mr. Hoh to participate in our treasure hunt. Originally, we did not have any chances and hopes, but if Mr. Hoh joined, then our chances of wi ing would be very high."
He Yi Ning rejected him flatly: "Sorry, I'm not interested in tomb robbing."
As the CEO of a group, how could he possibly be interested in this sort of thing?
Whatever he wanted, all he needed to do was buy it with money!
Naturally, there were many people who would do such a thing!
Tang Mu Si had a face full of regret as she said, "Then that is truly a pity. This is actually quite a good expedition."
Shen Qi looked at the situation and immediately said, "Lady Ella, I am very sorry to have disturbed you for so long today. We'll take our leave first."
Ella also stood up."Alright, I'll send you off."
He Yi Ning and Shen Wu also nodded towards Tang Mu Si, then turned and left together.
Everyone quickly returned to the outer edge of the camp. Ella whispered, "Tang Mu Si is a fanatical explorer, it would be best for you to keep him at arm's length. This place is really not safe, let's quickly leave."
"Aunty??" Shen Qi's eyes reddened."Give me your contact information, okay? Even if it's more convenient for you to look at it again."
Ella thought for a moment and then reported one of her private mailboxes to Shen Qi.
He Yi Ning quickly brought the others and left the camp.
Shen Wu asked He Yi Ning: "Did you also feel that something was wrong?"
"It's more than that." He Yi Ning looked up at the sky and said, "Looks like something really is going to happen here. Let's go meet with Feng Man Lun first."
Everyone returned to their own campgrounds very quickly. Just as they returned, they saw Feng Man Lun hurrying back from the outside.
It seemed that he had gathered enough information.
"Looks like we can't stay here for long." Feng Man Lun's first sentence was precisely this.
"What news did you get?" He Yi Ning asked straightforwardly.
"Currently, there is someone who disregarded the rules of tomb robbing and made a few holes in a place where they shouldn't have broken into the cave. It seems like they are dead. But the exact number of deaths is unknown." Feng Man Lun replied: "I had originally wanted to go with them to join in the fun, but now it seems that my life is more important."
Shen Qi asked in confusion: "That serious?"
Feng Man Lun nodded his head, and said: "This time's operation is called Taobao. It was said that someone had taken a bronze artifact from a tomb here during the Shang and Zhou Dynasties and had sold it for a high price outside. After that, countless people came out in full force to interrupt their journey here to get a share of the spoils. However, the truth is that the bronze artifacts of the Shang and Zhou Dynasties flowed out from here. However, it was definitely not from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, but from the mysterious dynasty.
"The scariest thing is not this, but that someone found a mechanism in the tomb that should not have belonged to this civilization at all." Feng Man Lun said in a low voice: "Obviously, the people at the back entered the tomb, but before the tomb was stolen, it was a complete and flawless tomb. The person who brought him into civilization has disappeared."
Hearing Feng Man Lun's words, Shen Qi felt a chill down his spine for some reason.
No wonder his aunt would let him go no matter what.
However, isn't it dangerous for my aunt to stay here?
"This tomb is filled with evil energy. It's best for us to just watch from the sidelines." Feng Man Lun made his concluding remarks.
He Yi Ning glanced at Shen Qi: "You want to go?"
Shen Qi shook her head: "I'm not fighting in reverse, what's the point of joining in on the fun? She couldn't just read a few novels about robbing tombs and feel like she was an expert, right? Although the third uncle of the southern sect wrote a grave robbing note, he also didn't go there to steal tombs! Since this place is very dangerous, we should avoid it."
The others all nodded.
Feng Man Lun pondered for a moment and said: "Actually, if we want to watch, it's not impossible. The place where we swept the tomb this morning was a very good observation point. It's about a thousand meters away from the ancient tomb, and it's standing on a high vantage point. With the help of the binoculars, it shouldn't be a problem."
Feng Man Lun's suggestion moved everyone's hearts.
It would be a lie to say he wasn't curious.
Reading novels was one thing, watching things from the ground was another.
Seeing Shen Qi's struggling expression, He Yi Ning immediately said: "Alright, let's go up the mountain and watch the show. By the way, when will they start their journey? "
"I heard that they have already paid their respects and will depart tomorrow at noon." Feng Man Lun explained.
Everyone instantly fell silent.
This really was an eccentric and novel hobby.
Watching others steal their tombs!
Most likely, only they could do such a thing.
That night, they stayed away from those people and expressed their attitude: they just watched and didn't participate.
When the other tomb robbers saw this, they ignored them and focused on their own preparations.
Shen Qi could not help but say: "When I die, I will definitely not cause myself to die with so many others. Aren't I waiting for someone else to dig my grave? "Woo woo??" The rest of the words, had been completely covered up by He Yi Ning.
He Yi Ning's face did not look good.
Shen Qi shook his hand away: "I was just joking."
"You can't even joke!" He Yi Ning's face turned as black as an iron pot.
If this was any other time, he would laugh it off.
But there was something evil here.
He Yi Ning kept feeling that it was not so normal.
Seeing He Yi Ning being so serious, Shen Qi did not continue.
That night, no one spoke much.
For the sake of safety, no one was camping outside. Instead, they all went back to their cars to rest.
In any case, the car was very comfortable, anything he wanted was fine.
Shen Qi took a shower to get into bed, and could not help but ask: "Tell me, will Aunt be okay?"
"She's an archaeologist, she shouldn't be in the front line." He Yi Ning comforted her and said: "Besides, she already knows about the strangeness of this place. She is not an idiot, how could she be the first? As you can see today, my aunt is actually quite cautious towards Tang Mu Si and the others. This means that Aunt has the ability to protect herself."
Shen Qi's heart calmed down a little.
Shen Qi looked through the window.
There were still a lot of people who had not slept at this time of the day and were still enjoying themselves.
