Chapter 151: Ice Crossing the Sea
"If it's archaeological work, can you take me with you? Maybe I can help." Wan Yan said quickly when she saw everyone clamoring and getting ready to leave.

"Come if you want." Lu Shiyuan laughed, "One more person means more strength."

Upon hearing this, Wan Yan looked at Lu Shiyuan gratefully and said, "Thank you."

"We can talk about the previous question when we have a chance on the way." Zhongli looked at Ying and said, "Traveler, you can come along too."

Ying was stunned. "But I don't know much about archaeology."

Zhongli explained: “The following experience may be helpful to your journey.

Although the demon god is gone and cannot be your target, it can at least add some meaning to your travel experiences."

Ying heard this and nodded thoughtfully.

"It seems that your goal on this continent is not just to find your brother." Lu Shiyuan said with a smile.

"Because I met my brother not long ago." Ying explained.

"Oh?"

"He said: I have already had a journey, so you must also reach the end like me, so that you can leave the sediment of this world in your eyes." Ying repeated what her brother said to her, with a firm look in her eyes.
“So, I decided to travel this land more attentively to increase my knowledge.

By then, I will surely understand many things like my brother does."

"I see. Then this journey ahead should be quite meaningful to you." Lu Shiyuan said with a smile.

"Yeah." Ying nodded.

At this moment, a harsh voice sounded, and Clement shouted in dissatisfaction: "Wait! This is an archaeological team! Not a sightseeing group, there are too many people!"

"What? Do you have any objections?" Lu Shiyuan glanced at Clement.

Clement shrank his neck and quickly hid behind Zhongli, pointing at Lu Shiyuan and shouting, "Mr. Zhongli, don't let them follow us, otherwise that guy will torture me to death.

I am your employer, you have to protect me."

"From a common sense perspective, it is their freedom to go wherever Lu Xiaoyou and his friends want to go. I have no right to interfere!" Zhongli said seriously, "Besides, my duty is to be your consultant on archaeological research, not your bodyguard."

Clement's face froze.

Seeing that Zhongli did not stop him, Lu Shiyuan immediately lost his worries. He walked to Clement with a smile and patted him on the shoulder. "My friend, what are you talking about? I am an ordinary person who is civilized and understands the law. We just met for the first time, so I won't target you."

"Really!" Clement asked in surprise, rubbing his aching shoulder.

"Really." Lu Shiyuan promised.

The former felt a little relieved. In fact, running away now and staying away from Lu Shiyuan would best ensure his own safety. However, he was reluctant to give up the huge commission he had paid, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's set off now and go to Guyun Pavilion."

After everyone reached a consensus, they left Zhudian Fang on a small boat, rented a boat at the port, and headed towards Guyun Pavilion.

Of course, Clement paid for the passage.

Not long after, the passenger ship arrived at the sea area near Guyun Pavilion, which was the place where Qun Yu Pavilion fell. At this time, the ship suddenly stopped.

Lu Shiyuan, who was sitting on the edge of the cabin, looked outside and found that the boatman was actually using the oars to fish for something on the sea.

He was a little puzzled, so he went out to take a look and finally understood what was going on. It turned out that there was a small wooden box floating on the water not far away. The boatman quickly brought the box up, opened the box happily, and was even happier when he saw what was inside.

"What's in the box?" Lu Shiyuan frowned and asked in a deep voice.

The boatman said calmly, "It's nothing, just some small objects floating on the sea, worth a little money."

"That's Ningguang's collection, right?" Lu Shiyuan was not fooled at all. "The Jade Pavilion crashed here, and everything that can float inside is floating in this sea area. A large part of it is Ningguang's collection. The one in your hand should be one of them."

The boatman blinked and said in surprise, "So what? It's already fallen into the sea. It would be a waste if we don't pick it up."

Lu Shiyuan said: "This is human nature, but I want to know what you are going to do with Ningguang's collection?"

The boatman was about to speak when he heard Clement excitedly say, "Ningguang Collection, where is Ningguang Collection!"

As he spoke, the guy rushed out of the cabin, his eyes quickly locked on the small box in the boatman's hand, and asked excitedly: "Is this Ningguang's collection?"

"Uh... yes." The boatman was a little surprised. "Sir, why are you so excited?"

“Ningguang’s stuff must be good stuff.” Clement said as a matter of course, “Let me see it. If it’s suitable, I’ll buy it!”

Hearing this, the boatman immediately changed his expression, opened the box, turned the front to Clement, and said with a big smile: "Sir, please feel free to look at it."

Clement nodded with satisfaction and looked at the collection in the box. It was a jade sculpture, which was well preserved under the protection of the wooden box and was in excellent condition!
Clement thought for a while and started bargaining with the boatman. He took advantage of the boatman's ignorance of the market and bought the boat at a relatively low price, paying on the spot.

The boatman didn't know that he had made a loss, but even if he knew, he would probably still sell it. After all, his business was without any capital investment. Compared with the difficult-to-sell collection and the golden Mora, the latter was obviously better.

Lu Shiyuan watched the two people complete the transaction with cold eyes, and sighed in his heart, "This kind of transaction is probably not an isolated case. After the crash of the Qun Yu Pavilion, many of the collections that survived and floated to the surface should have been salvaged and either collected or sold."

He thought to himself, "I once promised to contribute to the reconstruction of the Jade Pavilion, and I must stop the chaos of reselling the Jade Pavilion's collections.

If I want to eradicate it, there is only one way, and that is... to get all these collections here before anyone else does, and keep them myself."

This is also the real purpose of his coming to Guyun Pavilion.

Thinking of this, he reached out and snatched the jade carving that Clement was playing with.

The next moment, the "Shi Yuan Ring" flashed slightly, and the jade carving disappeared from the real world and was received in the "external scene".

"Hey! What are you doing! Why are you stealing my things?" After the jade carving was stolen, Clement immediately became furious. His anger made him temporarily forget the difference in fighting power between himself and Lu Shiyuan, and he questioned the latter harshly.

"This is Ningguang's thing. I don't want to see it being bought and sold casually." Lu Shiyuan said calmly, "After all, when the Qun Yu Pavilion fell, this jade carving also contributed its own "weight."

"What are you talking about?" Clement couldn't understand at all and said unhappily, "Give me back the jade carving as soon as possible."

The boatman took the money and chimed in, "That's right, why are you meddling in other people's business? Hurry up and return the things to this guest, or else, don't blame me for not giving you a ride."

Hearing this, Lu Shiyuan couldn't help but reveal a mocking smile: "Do you think this kind of threat will work on me?"

As he was speaking, the temperature around him suddenly dropped cold!
Clement and the boatman shrank their necks because of the cold. At the same time, they heard strange "crackling" and "crackling" sounds.

But soon they realized that it was the crisp sound made when sea water froze into ice at high speed.

With the small boat as the center, a thick layer of ice quickly condensed on the sea surface, and the strange cold air that caused the sea water to freeze was still spreading around, freezing everything around.
