Chapter 832 A Feast for the Senses, Bowing Heads, Rushing to Complete Work
A show of force!
A real show of force!
"Hehe, it seems that Young Master Gao really knows us well." Hu Bayi said with a forced smile.
“Of course, I don’t know how to be the last tomb raider. Please sit down.” Gao Dongxu smiled and gestured for everyone to sit down.
"Boss, I'm also a tomb raider..." Wang Yueban said with a wronged expression, seeing that the atmosphere was a bit strange and awkward.
"You're nothing but a tomb raider. It's only because your uncle dotes on you that he gave you a real tomb raiding talisman for protection... Oh right, I almost forgot, you can also light candles with one hand," Gao Dongxu said with a laugh.
"Puch-"
"hehe..."
Seeing Wang Yueban's embarrassed expression, Shen Yan, who had been blinking her big eyes and curiously watching everyone, couldn't help but giggle.
Everyone laughed along. Gao Dongxu, with his arm around Shen Yan's slender waist, smiled at Wu Xie and Wang Yueban and said, "Shen Yan, my girlfriend—"
"Hello Miss Shen, I'm Wang Yueban, you can just call me Fatty Wang." Wang Yueban immediately introduced himself with a fawning smile.
"Hello, Mr. Wang," Shen Yantian said with a smile.
"Hello, Ms. Shen, I am Wu Xie."
"Hello, Mr. Wu—"
"Alright, alright, it's enough that we know each other. Sit down, let's eat and chat—" Gao Dongxu interrupted their pleasantries, pulled Shen Yan to sit down, and gestured for everyone to take their seats.
At this moment, everyone sat down. Gao Dongxu looked at Hu Bayi and smiled, "Before, I had Big Gold Tooth invite you back to the country to help me, but you always made excuses to remove the talisman. Now that you've come out of seclusion again, you won't refuse my invitation anymore, will you?"
"So it was you who invited us. Look at this mess, it's all Master Jin's fault. He didn't explain things clearly to us, only saying that a big spender wanted us to come out of seclusion to find something. We really didn't want to hang talismans anymore, so we refused. We hope Young Master Gao will understand." Wang Kaixuan immediately explained with a look of sudden realization and regret.
At the same time, Hu Bayi and Yang Xueli realized that the big tail on the gold tooth bag must also belong to the young master in front of them.
Hu Bayi knew that trying to outsmart or beat around the bush with this young master would only annoy him, so he asked without hesitation, "Young Master Gao, what do you want us to help you find?"
"The King of Qin's Bone-Illuminating Mirror." Gao Dongxu looked at Hu Bayi, his eyes sparkling with admiration, and smiled.
"what?!"
Apart from Gao Dongxu and the clueless Shen Yan, everyone else wore expressions of astonishment and disbelief.
"Boss, is there really such a mirror?" Wang Yueban asked incredulously.
“Isn’t that obvious? You’ve seen my Legalist bronze mirror before. If the Legalist bronze mirror exists, then the Qin King’s Bone-Illuminating Mirror naturally exists too. Speaking of the Legalist bronze mirror, it was brought out by the three of you from the Tomb of King Xian of the Insect Valley, right?” Gao Dongxu said with a smile, looking at Hu Bayi and the other two.
The three exchanged glances, and Hu Bayi said with a wry smile, "You really do know everything... That's right, we did bring them out."
Sitting next to Gao Dongxu felt like opening the door to a whole new world. With her beautiful eyes full of curiosity, Shen Yan couldn't help but look at Gao Dongxu and ask, "Qin Wang Bone-Illuminating Mirror, that's a strange name. Is it a mirror that can reflect bones?"
"Hehe, you're absolutely right. It really is a mirror that can reflect bones. Legend has it that it's one of the eight ancient mirrors secretly kept by Qin Shi Huang. It has the special function of seeing through the human skeleton and veins and is regarded as a secret artifact for warding off evil spirits," Gao Dongxu explained with a smile.
"What? Really? How could there be such a mirror? Wouldn't that be like an X-ray?" Shen Yan stared wide-eyed, asking a series of questions in disbelief.
Gao Dongxu chuckled. He knew it would be like this. He said with a smile, "Of course it's true. The square mirror in the Qin Palace recorded in the Xijing Zaji was made of a semi-transparent material of siderite ore. It could show the outline of the human body's internal organs and was used to screen for disloyalty among palace servants."
Later, the First Emperor used this mirror to suppress an ancient corpse found at sea and buried it in the mountains. It was not until the end of the Northern Song Dynasty that it was discovered in the mountains and presented to Emperor Huizong. Later, the Jin army marched south and destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty, capturing two emperors of the Song Dynasty. The Qin King's Bone-Illuminating Mirror disappeared again.
Later, during the invasion of the Eight-Nation Alliance, the Qin King's Bone-Illuminating Mirror reappeared, but this time it was looted from the people by the British and eventually ended up in India after several transfers.
"In India?!" Everyone, including Shen Yan, asked in astonishment.
"No, not at all. If we go any further, it will become a secret. I wonder if the three of you would be interested?" Gao Dongxu asked Hu Bayi and the other two with a smile.
"This..." Hu Bayi looked at Yang Xueli with some hesitation. The trio, although Hu Bayi was the core, Wang Kaixuan was responsible for charging into battle and causing trouble, while Yang Xueli was the one who could lead Hu Bayi by the nose and make the decisions.
"Young Master Gao, we've returned to China this time at someone's request. We're going to the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds to find something. If all goes well, we..." Yang Xueli said with a smile.
"Hehe, are you trying to negotiate with me?" Gao Dongxu smiled at Yang Xueli, interrupting her directly. Yang Xueli hurriedly explained, "Young Master Gao, please don't misunderstand. That's not what I meant. We have no choice but to fulfill the request from the Bei family. We are willing to join Young Master Gao's team. We believe that our participation will definitely be of help. As for the Qin King Bone-Illuminating Mirror, we are also willing to accept the commission."
"Alright, it's settled then." Gao Dongxu smiled with satisfaction, looking at Yang Xueli with a playful glint in his eyes. He had to admit that Yang Xueli was very sensible. If she dared to refuse, then Gao Dongxu would dare to test whether their protagonist aura was really that magical, allowing them to always escape danger.
"Fatty, go outside and tell them to bring the food—"
"Okay—" Wang Yueban immediately replied with a smile, got up and ran to the door, opened the door and told the waiter outside to serve the food.
Soon, plates of delicious food were served, and Gao Dongxu led everyone to eat and drink. During the meal, Wang Kaixuan also told them about his adventures in the ancient city of Jingjue.
It must be said that Wang Kaixuan's vivid and engaging presentation was very captivating. Shen Yan was completely engrossed, exclaiming in amazement and admiration repeatedly, and expressing immense respect for Yang Xueli.
"Today I've truly broadened my horizons; I never knew there were so many amazing and mysterious places in the world..."
After lunch, on the way home, Shen Yan was still excitedly asking questions, her beautiful eyes full of excitement and curiosity about the new world.
"Keep what you've heard and what I've told you to yourself. Don't tell anyone else. Even if you do, they won't believe you. They'll just think you're being weird," Gao Dongxu said, gently stroking Shen Yan's back as he nestled in his arms.
"Yes, I won't go around saying anything." Shen Yan knew the gravity of the situation, so she nodded in agreement. Then, she looked up, her eyes sparkling, and with a sweet smile revealing her charming dimples, she asked softly, "Besides being an antique dealer and a billionaire, you have other identities, right?"
"Hehe, you've been holding it in all this way, and finally couldn't resist asking?" Gao Dongxu teased, looking down at her bright and charming face and captivating eyes.
"If it's inconvenient to say, then never mind," Shen Yan said softly, having already guessed what was going on.
“There’s nothing I can’t say. I’m the head of a special department of the Cultural Relics Protection Bureau. To put it simply, it’s about protecting ancient tombs across the country and catching tomb raiders. That’s why I travel a lot on business trips, and each trip can last for many days,” Gao Dongxu said with a smile.
"No wonder." Having received the answer, Shen Yan dispelled all her lingering doubts and suspicions. Her eyes lit up as she looked at Gao Dongxu with a sweet smile, "So, you really do have all the money in the world—"
"Hehe. Isn't that awesome?" Gao Dongxu raised an eyebrow and laughed teasingly.
"That's really amazing—hehe, would you say I hit the jackpot while shopping?" Shen Yan smiled sweetly and wrapped her arms around Gao Dongxu's neck, coquettishly pouting.
"You've definitely hit the jackpot—" Gao Dongxu joked.
"Hehe, you're so annoying! You took advantage of me before I could react and was in a daze, and you still have the nerve to say I got lucky? Humph—you got the benefit and are still acting innocent!" Shen Yanjiao said coquettishly.
Seeing her charming and coquettish appearance, Gao Dongxu hugged her delicate body tightly and lowered his head to kiss her red lips.
Shen Yan immediately closed her watery, seductive eyes, tightly hugged Gao Dongxu's neck with both hands, and actively and passionately responded.
Once home, the two made the most of their time to continue the in-depth communication and exchange that they hadn't been able to finish in the car.
To alleviate her lovesickness, Shen Yan took two days off so that she would have enough time for Gao Dongxu to tutor her and teach her all the knowledge she had missed.
As for whether she could fit it in, she didn't care at all. After all, she knew that Gao Dongxu was going on another mission. So, she really fought for every second. Even though she was already exhausted, she stubbornly gritted her teeth and endured it.
Finally, on the morning of the third day, after finishing the last lesson, and after a long, pitiful, and reluctant kiss, I put her in the car and watched her drive away to work.
"Hoo—" Gao Dongxu exhaled a breath of stale air, got into the Maybach driven by Fu Gui, and began the final preparations for heading to Changbai Mountain.
He first met with Su Nan, who had called him several times yesterday, and gave her one million yuan to purchase twenty sets of mountaineering equipment and go to Yanji ahead of time to wait for her.
Although Su Nan had a lot of complaints, Gao Dongxu's threat that he wouldn't play with her anymore if she didn't listen made her completely obedient. She left with the money, looking sullen and annoyed.
Then, without stopping, they rushed to Nanluoguxiang and immediately took the busy chatterbox upstairs to fetch water from the well.
Just then, he struck groundwater and received a call from Qiu Gang'ao, who had since changed his name to Nicholas Tse, arriving in Beijing. While he was working hard to meet the deadline, he also called Erpang and Fusheng to pick up Tse and settle him in.
However, because Gao Dongxu was rushing to meet the deadline, the work was inevitably a bit rough. Coupled with the barbaric construction, it directly angered the client, Huaxiazi. It was the first time he had ever witnessed the fiery side of a Beijing girl, and her Beijing curses were truly unbearable.
