Chapter 130 The Nightmare Approaches
This person was originally from the capital. During the Chenghua period, he served as the prefect of a certain place and later served as an official in the capital.
This tomb is the family cemetery for him, his wife and two sons.
The first coffin they dug up before, judging from the burial objects inside, should be that of the wife.
Because the coffin was large, the cleaning work progressed slowly. At night, headlights were turned on at the excavation site, and the archaeological team worked all night to clean out all the bones and burial objects.
The work didn't end until the early morning.
Lin Xi and Chen Qianyu also packed up their things and got in the car to go home.
Lin Xi didn't go back to school. She went home and fell asleep immediately.
Lin Xi was woken up by the ringing of her cell phone in the afternoon.
She groped for her phone in a daze and took a look. It was a landline number.
She answered the phone and a series of English words came from the other end.
Lin Xi sat up and replied in English, "Hello, Anna."
Anna on the other end was very excited, "Dear Lin Xi, I have arrived in Beijing. I plan to spend a few days in Beijing and visit the Forbidden City and the Great Wall."
"If you have time, we can meet."
Lin Xi thought about it and realized that Dean Xu had given her and Chen Qianyu a day off today so that they could have a good rest, so they happened to be free.
"Are you in a hotel now?"
"Well, okay, I'll pick you up later and I'll treat you to dinner."
"You and your new boyfriend? Oh, no problem."
"Okay, I'll meet you at the hotel in about two hours."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xi quickly got up to take a shower and change clothes.
Just as he was about to leave, he received a message from Qi Mo, "Have you returned to the capital? Are you still digging graves?"
Lin Xi replied with amusement, "The excavation is finished and I'm back."
Qi Mo quickly replied, "Thank you for your hard work. To celebrate your first excavation, I'll treat you to dinner tonight."
Lin Xi replied: "No, Anna and her boyfriend are coming to Beijing, and I plan to treat them to dinner tonight."
It took Qi Mo a while to remember who Anna was, "I want to go too."
"You said you would treat me to a meal."
Lin Xi remembered that because of Liu Dongsheng's incident, she had indeed promised to treat Qi Mo to a meal. She replied, "If you don't mind, then we can go together."
"I'm going to the hotel to find them now."
Qi Mo replied, "I'll book a place and pick you up at the hotel later."
Lin Xi told Lin Fenfang that she would not be having dinner at home, and went out, took a taxi and went straight to the hotel.
In the hotel lobby, I met Anna and her boyfriend.
It had been just over a month since they last saw each other, but Anna was still the same as before. When they met, they hugged each other warmly.
Anna held the man next to her arm and said, "This is my boyfriend, Daniel."
Lin Xi looked at Daniel.
He looked no longer young, at least in his forties, with a beard, brown eyes, brown hair, a high nose and deep eyes.
For some reason, Lin Xi felt uncomfortable the first time she saw Daniel, but she still politely shook hands with Daniel.
Daniel's hands were hard and his fingers were covered with calluses.
Lin Xi, who had received special agent training in her previous life, became secretly alert.
People with calluses on their hands are either craftsmen who work with their hands every day, or people who often handle guns.
Anna continued, "Daniel accepted Kyoto University's invitation to be a visiting professor there to work on a project together."
"I might stay in Flower Country for half a year to a year."
Anna said happily: "I plan to spend this time with him."
"Oh, by the way, Daniel is also a fighting and gun enthusiast, you two will have common topics."
Lin Xi lowered her eyes. Daniel's identity as a gun enthusiast could explain the calluses on his hands.
Daniel stared at Lin Xi passionately, "I watched the live broadcast, and I admire your performance very much. I can say that you are the woman I admire most."
Lin Xi raised her eyebrows slightly. She inexplicably felt that there was something else behind this appreciation.
She smiled and said, "Thank you for your appreciation."
She changed the subject, "Let's just wait here for a while, our friends will come and pick us up for dinner."
Anna's eyes widened. "Is it Qi Mo?"
Lin Xi smiled and nodded.
Anna cheered, "Great, I like Qi Mo, he is the most handsome oriental man I have ever seen."
She then looked at Daniel and said, “Dear, don’t be angry, I still like you the most.”
Daniel shrugged and said, "You know I won't get angry about this kind of thing." As he spoke, his brown eyes still staring at Lin Xi passionately.
Several people sat down to chat, and Daniel did not hide her interest in Lin Xi. "Ms. Lin, I have watched a lot of your live broadcasts, and now I am watching the edited version as well."
"I'm very curious. Miss Lin seems to be just an ordinary student. I feel that your fighting skills are very diverse. Where did you learn them?"
Lin Xi's calm eyes flickered slightly. "I have been learning Kung Fu from a master since I was a child. My master has integrated Western fighting techniques into Kung Fu."
Daniel asked again, "I see that Miss Lin Xi is very fast. It's hard for ordinary people to reach such speed. Is this also the result of training?"
Lin Xi looked at him calmly, "It's not just training, I'm naturally more responsive than others."
Daniel smiled slightly, "I am also very interested in fighting. I wonder if I will have the honor to spar with Miss Lin in the future."
As he was speaking, Qi Mo came over. He sat directly next to Lin Xi, looked at Daniel and said, "If you are interested, I will spar with you."
From a distance, he saw Daniel staring at Lin Xi, and that look was so annoying.
Daniel nodded, "Sure, I'll stay in Flower Country for a while, there will be opportunities."
Lin Xi stood up and said, "Let's go eat, there's going to be a traffic jam soon."
Qi Mo was still driving his Knight XV.
Lin Xi sat in the passenger seat, while Anna and Daniel sat in the back.
On the way, Anna and Daniel talked while looking at the scenery outside the window.
Lin Xi suddenly realized that Daniel's voice seemed familiar.
She shuddered slightly and remembered.
His voice was a bit like the voice of the man in her nightmare.
No wonder she felt uncomfortable the moment she saw him.
This discovery made Lin Xi alert again.
She suppressed the urge to use her spiritual sense to investigate Daniel.
She would not rashly investigate Daniel before she knew his background.
If he was really the person she thought he was, he would be able to detect her if she used her spiritual sense to investigate him.
Qi Mo asked his assistant to book a table at a Chinese restaurant.
The interior was decorated in an antique style. Anna, who had never seen the sight, was amazed as she walked and took out her mobile phone to take pictures.
"Oh my god, isn't Flower Country said to be a poor and backward country?"
"What I've seen along the way is completely different."
"And these, these are all elements of Flower Country culture. I love them so much."
