On the first night of her marriage, she was hospitalized
Chapter 308: Two more teams
Chapter 308 Two more teams
Although she admires this sister for being amazing, sometimes she still thinks about smashing her head open to see what she's thinking!
How can sharing a blanket mean they're sleeping together?
But then again, it seems like that's one way to calculate it?
Chen Yue's mind wasn't working properly.
Seeing that Jiang Tang didn't intend to say anything more, she clutched the half-blanket, her heart churning with emotions.
In the crowd not far away, someone looked in their direction. Seeing the person with downcast eyes lost in thought, the person sighed silently in their heart and looked away.
Someone patted me on the shoulder.
Xu Hui looked up. "Team Leader Zhang."
Zhang Xiangdong smiled and said, "Rest now, we have to get up again in the middle of the night."
"Yes, Captain Zhang."
Zhang Xiangdong's words reminded Xu Hui that they still had an important mission to complete. As for other matters, they could discuss them after the mission was over.
Inside the cave, everyone slowly drifted off to sleep.
Outside the cave, in the distant canyon, a small team of seven or eight dared not fall asleep.
They were terrified of the tigers that would attack them at night, and that they would attack again tonight while they were asleep.
Although they all survived by sheer luck, Yukihira's arm is ruined, and he will be a cripple from now on.
This is all the fault of that ferocious tiger.
They don't want to become the second Yukihira, so they must be vigilant at all times.
They absolutely cannot afford any more accidents before they find the treasures left behind by their ancestors.
Meanwhile, in a ravine about ten miles away from the valley, in a camp hidden among the green trees, there was another team.
This was a team consisting of military personnel and five or six archaeologists.
The person in charge of security was Gong Guodong.
Why are they here? It's a short story.
Yesterday evening, the Beijing suburbs received a call for help from the Cultural Relics Bureau.
They said they wanted to go into the mountains to investigate, as there might be large tombs there that had never been excavated by tomb raiders.
It's too dangerous for only their cultural relics bureau personnel to go into the mountains, so they want the military to help them.
Escort them to the mountains for a trip.
Normally, this kind of thing isn't under our jurisdiction.
However, it just so happened that the call came from Director Chen himself, who only asked them to provide a few manpower.
After thinking it over, the military leaders couldn't find a suitable reason to refuse Director Chen.
So they found Gong Guodong and asked him to take a few people and escort the archaeological expert team into the mountains for a tour.
Considering that this matter concerns the Cultural Relics Bureau, if it succeeds, it will be credited to the Cultural Relics Bureau; if it fails, they may not even get any credit.
So when the leader made arrangements for Gong Guodong, he privately instructed him to take the archaeological team for a quick tour of the outer perimeter.
Don't actually venture into that Wild Man's Gully, which even the old hunters dare not go to.
The lives of our brothers are lives too.
Gong Guodong kept it in mind and planned to follow the leader's instructions.
The archaeological team was about to return after circling the area twice when they unexpectedly heard a tiger's roar and chaotic gunfire coming from the depths of the valley...
Things seem to have taken a turn for the worse than Gong Guodong and his team had anticipated.
"Captain Gong, have other people come into these mountains before us?"
The person who came with Gong Guodong asked, "Judging from their voices, they seem to be not far ahead of us. Should we chase after them?"
The person who said this was a member of the archaeological team.
His saying such a thing fully proves the saying, "A trade is like a mountain to climb."
Although the sounds of tiger roars and gunshots were not far away, the members of the archaeological team did not realize that they were in a dense mountain forest.
In forests with this density, even if the distance is only 100 meters, it could take a whole day to get there.
Even if you had wings, you would have to fly higher and leave the dense forest to reach a distance of more than ten miles.
Still thinking of pursuing her?
Gong Guodong glanced at the five or six archaeological experts who were sitting on the ground, unwilling to move. He felt that he had taken on an extremely difficult task. "The mountains at night are densely forested with heavy dew, visibility is extremely low, and there are all kinds of deep pits, poisonous snakes, and wild beasts. Traveling at night is not a wise move."
Gong Guodong began making arrangements.
"As planned, we will rest in place and set off again after dawn."
“But Captain Gong…” Luo Yongfu from the archaeological team spoke up, he had a different opinion.
"If we know that someone has already gotten there first, what if they steal the country's treasure if we don't catch up?"
"What treasure?"
Gong Guodong frowned and looked down at Luo Yongfu, who was thin but had a sharp glint in his eyes.
He heard from his superiors that this was someone Director Chen valued highly, and it was rumored that Director Chen intended to marry his daughter from his previous marriage to him.
This person can be considered one of Director Chen's confidants.
So, did he know something that others didn't?
Gong Guodong's eyes were sharp and keen.
Luo Yongfu dared not meet Gong Guodong's gaze.
His eyes darted away, his gaze shifting for a moment before immediately returning.
"I'm guessing, but based on what we've learned, there's a high chance that a large tomb is hidden in this mountain."
Gong Guodong nodded slightly, his gaze indifferent.
No matter what Luo Yongfu says, he will not change his stance.
He would never travel overnight with a group of elderly, weak, sick, and disabled people.
Unless everyone is willing to die.
"Rest where you are and take turns on duty."
After saying that, he turned around and went to attend to his own business.
Luo Yongfu watched Gong Guodong's retreating figure, his eyes narrowed slightly and his teeth clenched, but remembering what Director Chen had told him, he held back.
Let's not stoop to Gong Guodong's level for now.
The main objective now is to locate the possible large tomb and excavate it as soon as possible.
That way, when the news gets out, their archaeological team will get the credit!
Once he becomes famous, why would he be afraid that Chen Yue wouldn't marry him?
.........
Chen Yue, inside the cave, trembled slightly for no apparent reason.
It felt like a chill, or like being frightened by something.
Jiang Tang, who was about a meter away from her, slowly opened her eyes.
It's already past midnight.
A figure slowly approached them, then squatted down, picked up the blanket that Chen Yue had dropped on the ground, and gently wrapped it around her.
In the darkness, his gaze fell on Chen Yue with a rare tenderness.
But soon, Xu Hui realized something was wrong.
He subconsciously raised his head and looked at where Jiang Tang was standing.
Despite the poor lighting in the cave, Xu Hui keenly noticed that Jiang Tang was looking at him with her eyes open.
Those calm, still eyes seemed to have seen through everything...
Realizing this, Xu Hui's hand trembled involuntarily.
He squatted there, his body stiff.
For a moment, she didn't know whether to pretend she hadn't noticed Jiang Tang had woken up, or to pretend she hadn't done anything and turn around and slip away.
Just as Xu Hui was caught in a dilemma, not knowing what to do, a sentence that seemed like a thunderclap exploded in his ears.
"So it really is true!"
