Starting with Hyuga, traversing countless heavens

"The best plan is for me to lead you back the way we came. The middle plan is to lead you to a shortcut. The worst plan is to blow up the roof above us. What do you think, strategist?"

"Alas, why did it have to come to this? It's blown up, it's blown up."

Wu Xie waved his hand, as if the situation was hopeless and he didn't care what happened.

"Alright, strategist, remember, you made the choice."

Hinata Hoshino took out the storage scroll containing the explosive tags, took out the explosive tags, and started counting. He counted out thirty tags first, thought for a moment, and then put ten back.

Retrieve the storage scrolls, align them perpendicular to the wall, walk to the dome, and paste them one by one. After finishing, perform a somersault in the air and land perfectly.

"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall."

A water balloon sheltered the five people. "Art is Patrick Star."

"Sizzle, sizzle, boom."

An explosion occurred in the air, sending a large amount of debris and seawater crashing against the water array wall. Despite the massive supply of chakra, the water array wall remained completely still.

With normal water pressure, the water sphere floated to the surface of the sea, and Hyuga Hoshino released the ninjutsu.

Apart from Hinata Hoshino and Aning, whom he was holding, the three of them fell into the water.

"Pah, you heartless bastard! You lied to me before, saying there was a limit of one person per vehicle, but now you don't care whether your brother lives or dies."

Ignoring Wang Pangzi's complaints, Hinata Hoshino ran back to the ship, only to find it deserted, which was expected.

In mid-air, with the release of Lugia's ultimate attack, Kakarot lifts up Bemstar, stating that he is merely the daimyo of the Land of Fire, and then casually tosses Bemstar to SpongeBob for cooking.

Chapter 22 Master Ba Yi, Shirley Yang

With everything over, Hinata Hoshino and Aning returned to Kyoto.

At this time, our Mr. Hu Bayi and Mr. Wang Kaixuan Fatty had completed the second part of the Niuxin Mountain Adventure and returned to Beijing.

After informing Hyuga Hoshino of the archaeological team's meeting date, Aning went back to report to Jude Kao.

Hinata Hoshino headed to the meeting place with a camera, eager to witness the iconic scene of Mr. Yaichi conning Professor Chen.

As soon as he entered, Hyuga Hoshino heard Hu Bayi trying to fool Old Chen, giving a long, encyclopedic introduction to the Heavenly Star Feng Shui technique, talking non-stop like a pea shooter spitting out peas.

Hu Bayi's introduction was very detailed, but it didn't contain much substantial information. However, Professor Chen thought, "Wow, he's really good at this."

"click click"

The camera flashed, and young cadre Hu Bayi covered his eyes. Hyuga Hoshino looked at the photo with satisfaction, thinking, "I must show it to Hu Tiankang later." (Hu Bayi's son)

"Young man, may I ask who you are?"

Professor Chen saw Hyuga Hoshino's disdainful look and realized that Hyuga Hoshino's actions were completely unaffected, leading him to believe that Hyuga Hoshino was no ordinary person.

"I am an advisor to an international marine resource development company."

Lakes in the desert are still lakes; develop them, no problem.

"Hello."

After finishing his sentence, Hinata Hoshino handed over a business card that read "International Ocean." This was a front for Aning Company in China, which had previously funded the archaeological team. Hinata Hoshino participated in the inspection work under the title of consultant.

Professor Chen shook hands with Hinata Hoshino very politely. After all, Hinata Hoshino was sent by a major financial backer. Speaking of which, it seems that the only sponsors of the archaeological team are the company behind Aning and Yang Xueli.

Both of the funders came; you wouldn't dare cram so many people into a movie production.

Facing the wealthy patron and the capable Hu Bayi, Hao Aiguo dared not voice any objections. As for the seemingly roguish Wang Kaixuan, Hao Aiguo looked down on him. With a glance, Chu Jian stepped forward and spoke out for justice.

"Hey, you fatso, what makes you think you can join us?"

"Hey, pretty boy, believe me or not, I'll beat you up."

Hu Bayi quickly stopped his childhood friend, Wang Kaixuan, and smoothed his hair.

"Let me tell you, when I was young and fighting bandits in the Northwest, you were still wearing open-crotch pants."

Chu Jian curled his lip, clearly not believing it. That was all from the last century. If Wang Kaixuan had really been involved, he definitely wouldn't be so young.

Wang Kaixuan took out the jade pendant, and Professor Chen looked at the characters on the pendant and found they were Ghost Cave script.

"You still don't believe me? This is the proof."

"Alright, Xiao Chu, say no more. Let's welcome Advisor Wu, Comrade Hu, and Comrade Wang to join us."

Professor Chen led the applause, and Yang Xueli gracefully walked up to Hu Bayi and shook hands with him.

"Mr. Hu, hello. I am Shirley Yang. You gave a very insightful presentation. I hope we can work together in the future."

"sure."

Hu Bayi felt a surge of excitement, an indescribable feeling. Wang Kaixuan shook the dazed Hu Bayi.

"Old Hu, calm down. Those are all sugar-coated bullets. Only the greenbacks are real."

Hu Ba calmed himself down and realized that he was right; women would only affect his ability to interpret feng shui.

Yang Xueli looked at Hinata Hoshino with great interest. She had heard about Hinata Hoshino's exploits; after all, she was a genuine rich woman, and with a little money, she could easily obtain information.

"Brother Wu, I hope you can take good care of me this time."

"Ah~, Shirley."

Hinata Hoshino couldn't help but let out a Gin-like howl.

Yang Xueli: ?

"I mean, okay."

Yang Xueli suffers cross-dimensional persecution for the first time, and Hinata Hoshino joins Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan's conversation.

"Master Ba Yi, I heard that your ancestor was Zhang Sanlianzi. I wonder if it's true or not."

Hu Bayi: ? Ancestor?

"Zhang Sanye, the outlaw, you've never heard of him?"

"Is this possible?"

"Master Zhang's disciple Sun Guofu, and his grand-disciple Hu Guohua."

After saying that, regardless of Hu Bayi's expression after being spoiled, Hyuga Hoshino went to buy groceries. Last time, the Iron Triangle successfully gained three pounds, so this time he was determined not to let them get away with it.

"Old Hu, is it true? Were your ancestors very famous?"

"I do not know."

Hu Bayi smiled wryly and said, "What is this all about? Outlaw? What an imposing nickname."

Yang Xueli seemed to be deep in thought. Zhang Sanlianzi, what a familiar name. She recalled the story that Partridge Whistle had once told her. It seemed that Master Liaochen of Blackwater Temple was related to Zhang Sanlianzi.

Sure enough, all three of them were tomb raiders. Yang Xueli decided to take out her family heirloom, the Vajra Umbrella.

So, a month later, the archaeological team went to the desert.

On the train, Hu Bayi looked at the changing scenery along the roadside and felt a sense of familiarity. After all, he had once been on duty near the glacier.

He was very familiar with the surrounding scenery.

“Ms. Yang, I hope you can give me an explanation. This is not the road to the desert at all, but the road to the glacier.”

“That’s right. My father once went on an expedition to the glacier, but he never returned. He also had a notebook belonging to an explorer who had been to the ancient city of Jingjue.”

“I not only need to retrieve my father’s body, but I also need that notebook.”

"Okay, I'm quitting."

Upon hearing this, Wang Kaixuan was taken aback. If he didn't go, he would suffer a great loss, but if Hu Bayi didn't go, then he wouldn't go either.

Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi went to another carriage, lit cigarettes, and reminisced about the past.

He told Wang Kaixuan about the various experiences he had encountered while on duty near the glacier. After hearing Hu Bayi's recollections, Yang Xueli decided to retreat in order to advance.

"Mr. Hu, if you don't want to go, you can wait near the desert first."

Hu Bayi felt a pang of sympathy upon hearing this. He had served in the army before and couldn't let this group of old, weak, sick, and disabled people go to the unsafe glacier.

Hyuga Hoshino shook his head. This was just a simple case of retreating to advance. Mr. Yaichi was still kind-hearted.

Wang Kaixuan clearly understood Yang Xueli's intentions, but he remained silent. He was indeed a shrewd person.

Borrowing Yang to drive out Hu, this is it.

He wanted to go, but he didn't want to go against Hu Bayi's wishes. Yang Xueli's reason was not only that, but it also made Hu Bayi go willingly.

The snow-covered landscape is breathtaking, with snow drifting for miles.

The glacier was in the midst of a snowstorm, and the mountains were blocked by heavy snow. The archaeological team arrived at a nearby guesthouse.

Professor Chen showed his credentials and explained his purpose. The guesthouse quickly dispatched a truck with equipment to support the archaeological team's work.

On the cliff edge above the snow valley, military green tents were set up, and communication equipment was installed.

The group decided to go down and find out what was going on, but they were still discussing who should go down first.

"I go."

Hinata Hoshino calmly raised his hand, but Professor Chen frowned because Hinata Hoshino's age was indeed misleading, and Professor Chen felt it was inappropriate to let him go down such a dangerous cliff alone.

Seeing that Professor Chen was still hesitating, Hinata Hoshino simply walked down the cliff at a right angle without waiting for Professor Chen's reaction.

I've signed a contract, and everyone's begging me. This humble author is practically kowtowing online.

Chapter 23 Prehistoric Salamanders, Dap Ghost Worms

Professor Chen's glasses were about to slip off his face; is that even possible for a human to do?

"He is definitely an alien."

Sadi Peng looked as if he had made a major discovery and that his dream had come true.

Yang Xueli watched as Hinata Hoshino walked quite a distance, then gritted her teeth, slid down the rope, and quickly reached Hinata Hoshino's side.

"Hey beautiful, need a ride?"

"want."

Hyuga Hoshino untied Yang Shirley's safety rope, turned around, and Yang Shirley stayed on Hyuga Hoshino's body. Hyuga Hoshino walked down upside down. Yang Shirley had never experienced this feeling before and was somewhat surprised.
