The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

“That’s right. From the moment they came to me, I felt that something was wrong. From the beginning, they wanted me to go with them. I suspect that the place my third uncle went to is an underwater tomb. Their purpose in asking me to go there this time is to have me help them explore the tomb.”

Wu Xie quickly replied.

"So you came to me in such a hurry to ask me to come out of seclusion and go with you, is that right?"

"Just ten minutes before you arrived, two members of the Huo family came to my antique shop to invite me to help, but I don't like people who tell lies, and not a single word they said was true."

Fang Yun said calmly.

“I know it’s inappropriate to ask you to come with me this time. After all, you’ve helped us so much in the tomb of King Lu Shang. You even saved my life, my third uncle’s life, and Pan Zi’s life. I can never repay you in this lifetime. If you are willing to help this time, I will follow your lead from now on.”

Wu Xie quickly replied.

"Look at all these antiques in my room, what do you think I lack the most?"

Fang Yun suddenly said something.

"Here……"

Wu Xie was speechless and choked with emotion.

"Alright, alright, it won't make a difference if I help the Wu family one more time. But this time you must listen to me completely and not make any decisions on your own. Otherwise, if your life is in danger, I won't help you."

Fang Yun said.

"Don't be happy yet. Go wait at the door for a while and call the two Huo family members who came looking for you. Tell them I'll be coming too. I'll pack some things, and they'll send someone to pick us up soon."

After Fang Yun finished speaking, he went into the inner room.

"Ring ring ring!"

"Mr. Wu, have you thought this through? Do you want to come with us?"

The man quickly asked.

"I'm sending you an address now. There's another person who needs to come along."

Wu Xie hung up the phone after he finished speaking.

Fang Yun came out shortly afterward.

"We're going to the Spratly Islands this time. You should know a little about their location."

Fang Yun said calmly.

"Yes, I once went to the Spratly Islands. It was just a simple tourist trip, but I still know a bit about the general geography."

Wu Xie quickly replied.

"Alright, let's just sit here and wait for them to come."

Fang Yun said calmly.

Hearing Fang Yun say this, Wu Xie breathed a sigh of relief.

Wu Xie knew that someone as mediocre as him would only be a fool to be played by a monkey.

Moreover, he knew nothing about tomb exploration, so they would definitely make him find the location of the tomb this time.

If he couldn't find them, Wu Xie had no idea what these people might have done to him.

Pan Zi had already been settled before Wu Xie came to find Fang Yun.

He handed the money over to a reliable friend, who left a large sum of money for Panzi's medical treatment and living expenses.

Sure enough, a luxury car pulled up outside in less than ten minutes.

"Mr. Fang, Mr. Wu, we are pressed for time, please get in the car and come with us to the airport."

The man quickly said.

“There are some things I’m carrying that can’t be shown at the airport. Tell your Huo family to arrange a plane to pick me up. Figure out the solution yourselves.”

Fang Yun said calmly.

Fang Yun's words put the two members of the Huo family in a very difficult position.

The man had no choice but to take out his phone and make a call, muttering to himself for a while before hanging up.

"Mr. Fang, please come to the plane. It's ready!"

The man quickly said.

Upon hearing the man say this, Fang Yun slung his bag over his shoulder and got into the car.

Wu Xie was even more curious about Fang Yun's identity at this moment. A casual remark had actually prompted the Huo family to prepare an airplane.

It's important to know that very few families in the country can afford to own an airplane.

Moreover, the approval process was extremely troublesome, yet it was resolved so quickly in such a short time, all because of Fang Yun's words.

……

Huo family.

“Master, although Mr. Fang is indeed rumored to have some skills, it is not worth going to such great lengths for him. You should know that the cost and manpower required for this trip are much more difficult than sending Wu Sansheng over.”

"When did it become your place to speak for the Huo family? With Mr. Fang taking action, this is bound to be a natural outcome. Don't even mention providing a mere airplane; you must do everything in your power to satisfy whatever he wants. This pie isn't just coveted by the Huo family; there are also forces you simply cannot afford to offend."

· ·········Request flowers· ···

The woman spoke with a barely suppressed anger.

No one could imagine that the CEO of a prestigious company would be scolded by this woman who was nearly a hundred years old and dared not utter a single word.

"Yes, master."

The man quickly left the room.

"Mr. Fang is truly a remarkable person! For so many years, he has been elusive, but now that he has stepped forward, the secrets of the Spratly Islands are finally about to be revealed."

The woman's tears fell.

……

"Mr. Fang, Mr. Wu, this is the helipad rented by my Wu family. The plane will arrive here in five minutes and will take us directly to Nansha. However, we will have to take a boat out to sea. I hope you are both prepared."

...... 0 ...

After speaking, the man left and made a phone call.

"Wu Xie, that woman is no ordinary person. You must be careful and wary of her along the way. If she does anything unusual, you must report to me immediately. Don't let your guard down just because she looks pretty. The more beautiful the flower, the more poisonous it is."

Fang Yun said calmly.

"This, I..."

Wu Xie didn't know what to say.

"Observe this woman's hands carefully along the way. I'm too lazy to tell you anything else. That's all."

Fang Yun said calmly.

Wu Xie was somewhat puzzled after hearing Fang Yun's words.

However, Wu Xie also knew that Fang Yun's instructions to him were definitely for his own good.

In no time at all, the plane sent by the Huo family landed smoothly in front of Fang Yun and his group.

Fang Yun boarded the plane with practiced ease, and the man and woman exchanged a glance.

The two did not speak, and then boarded the plane. The flight was very smooth.

Wu Xie also observed the woman from time to time, and some of his doubts were resolved.

The group arrived at the helipad in the Spratly Islands at the agreed time.

"Mr. Fang, Mr. Wu, we have arrived at our destination. Please come with me off the plane."

The man said, "Factory."

Chapter 255 Setting Sail! The Mysterious Ocean!

A group of people carrying their luggage walked off the plane.

The man led Fang Yun and his group to the shore.

"Boatman, we agreed to set sail today. I wonder how your preparations are going? We're in a bit of a rush, so we hope you can make arrangements for us as soon as possible."

the man asked.

"Although we had agreed to take you out to sea today, the situation outside has changed. It seems that going out to sea is too dangerous now. According to the forecast, an air current will pass through here soon, which will cause a storm. Our kind of ship cannot withstand a storm of that magnitude."

The boat captain said helplessly.

"How about this, we'll double the price we agreed on before."

The man quickly said.

The man noticed that the boat captain was wavering.

"If we increase the '603' by another 50% on top of what we just discussed, then if you really don't want to, we'll have to find another ship. I believe that if you don't make this money, there are many other people who would like to."

The man pretended to be about to leave.

At this point, the captain's crew could no longer contain themselves.

It should be noted that the fee paid by this man far exceeded their annual income from going to sea.
