Extra: The road of the rest of life
As Xu Zhizhi's career gradually rose, she gradually became more low-key and tried not to appear in public.
Apart from some charity events, endorsements, and promotional activities, she mostly does not attend other events.
The studio has signed several actors and the business is developing well. Even if Xu Zhizhi retires, it can still maintain profitability.
As Jiang Yuchuan grew older, the team also developed on their own. He chose to study abroad and later became Doctors Without Borders.
This choice was beyond everyone's expectations.
What was even more unexpected was that the girlfriend he brought back was Director Zhou's daughter.
When filming a few years ago, Zhou Yu once said that he would introduce his daughter to Xu Zhizhi, but he never thought that this would be how they met in the end.
The meeting of fate is wonderful beyond words.
In the new year, Xu Zhizhi also took over the shooting of a documentary.
The archaeological documentary was filmed for the official documentary channel. Xu Zhizhi, as a cultural relic restoration expert, went to various places for archaeological research with a group of experts.
Xu Zhizhi is not an honorary expert, this title is obtained through serious study and passing various examinations. She was just interested in it, and she did not expect to be invited to the Jiangshi Museum to participate in the restoration of "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains".
After receiving the real painting from the Thief King, the museum felt both happy and worried.
Because the other party did not really like the painting and just treated it casually after receiving it.
This is cruel to an ancient painting that has been around for hundreds or thousands of years. The painting has been severely damaged.
Experts who have seen the work dare not take part in the restoration, while the country's highly respected experts in ancient painting restoration are old and unsure.
Because of her excellent grades, Xu Zhizhi was invited to participate, and with her own strength, she became the main force.
The skill of counterfeiting is based on one-to-one restoration and understanding the original work’s information and craftsmanship.
Therefore, Xu Zhizhi is not only able to forge artifacts, but also able to understand cultural relic restoration by learning more.
It took four months to finally restore "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains".
When "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" reappeared in the museum, the cultural relics community was shocked because the difficulty of its restoration was obvious to all.
Fans were shocked that their favorite actor had given up acting in TV dramas to restore cultural relics!
In many ways, Xu Zhizhi became famous because of her acting.
Later, Xu Zhizhi participated in other cultural relic restoration work and became an alternative expert in cultural relic restoration and archaeology.
When planning to shoot an archaeological documentary, the crew chose Xu Zhizhi.
First, she is highly professional, and second, she is well-known enough.
Others had no objections, and everyone hoped that someone could take the top spot when facing the camera.
Although Xu Zhizhi is young, she is very capable in the circle, and everyone is happy to have her with them.
Xu Zhizhi bid farewell to Qin Su, walked into the Terracotta Warriors excavation site, and visited places big and small.
At the last stop, they arrived at the cemetery in the mountains where the forest ranger told them that it had been robbed. Archaeologists generally do not dig up graves, and they generally do not disturb or dig up well-preserved graves.
But the fact is that grave robbers move faster than they do, and they don't consider the situation inside the cemetery, they just greedily take what they want.
After they pass by, the archaeological team will begin rescue excavations to preserve the remaining items in the cemetery.
For the sake of authenticity, their archaeological team was sent here halfway through the filming.
Based on the photos sent by the forest rangers, the archaeological team concluded that this was a princess's tomb.
Xu Zhizhi followed the archaeological team to the site, where the rainy weather blocked everyone's way up the mountain.
Because the mountain roads were difficult to navigate, the crew provided everyone with portable cameras to avoid missing footage.
When the weather improved a little, everyone carried their heavy bags and headed towards the cemetery under the guidance of the guide.
In the mountains and forests, apart from fatigue, every breath you take is healed by the green of nature.
On the way, an expert who had studied geology talked about what was here in the past. Based on this, everyone guessed who the owner of the tomb was.
Xu Zhizhi listened as she walked.
The wizard suggested that the next level be trimmed.
After everyone sat down, because it was too cold, the guide suggested that we light a fire to keep warm and heat up the food on a large, bare platform.
Most experts are older and have many health problems, so they must eat something hot.
Xu Zhizhi put down her bag and took her shovel to look for firewood with the guide and some expert students.
Xu Zhizhi had disguised herself and her appearance became more ordinary. She was afraid that her fans would see her, so the filming crew was unable to take pictures.
It was also to protect her. If she was in a remote place with a beauty that was too prominent, it would be easy for something bad to happen to her, and that would cause her trouble for no reason.
Xu Zhizhi didn't walk too far, just a few hundred meters, and went back after picking up some things that were enough.
Because Lin Li was a little wet, Xu Zhizhi pulled her black combat jacket tighter and put on her hat to prevent her body from getting wet.
She squatted down and picked up the dry branches. Before she stood up, she heard the sound of branches being stepped on and broken.
She dropped the branch, holding the shovel in her hand, and quickly turned to look in the direction where the branch was broken.
A middle-aged man with a brown face full of wrinkles, an old scar on his cheekbone and fierce eyes appeared beside Xu Zhizhi.
Next to him were two skinny men, one young and one middle-aged.
Xu Zhizhi looked at them while holding the engineering shovel, her eyes scanning and falling on the other person's hands.
There, there is an old-fashioned earthen warehouse.
Xu Zhizhi knew that she was in danger again.
Because of the number of dangerous situations, Xu Zhizhi even learned to remain calm.
"The one who contacted us? She didn't say she was a woman! And she's so young... Could it be that Lao Xu was fooling us?"
Before Xu Zhizhi opened her mouth, the young man on the right of the middle-aged man spoke first.
Several people looked Xu Zhizhi up and down, frowning in disdain.
The middle-aged man in the lead stretched out his hand, stopped the young man from talking, and looked at Xu Zhizhi: "Who are you?"
"Xu Zhi," Xu Zhizhi said quickly.
The moment she heard the other party's words, Xu Zhizhi quickly responded.
The man let go of the mortar and took out a cell phone from his bag. It was a keypad phone. He opened it and took a look, then frowned and compared it. "Xu Zhi, the name seems to be different. Did that guy make a typo? It looks about 50% like the photo. It's normal for photos taken when you were a kid to look about 50% like. Would you go to a tomb?"
"Yes." Xu Zhizhi replied quickly.
At this time, you have to learn it even if you don’t know how.
The opponent had dangerous weapons on him, so Xu Zhizhi didn't dare to show her true colors.
It's so unfair to be killed in this deep forest.
And when Xu Zhizhi heard the last half of the other party's sentence, she immediately realized that the other party was a group of tomb robbers.
This tomb was robbed a few days ago. Is it robbed again today?
Or two guys.
Xu Zhizhi thought to herself, with a flattering smile on her face, "Shall we... go?"
This place is only about 200 meters away from the place where the experts are resting. If they are discovered, these three people may cause casualties, especially if the opponent has a wooden warehouse.
Whatever the considerations, Xu Zhizhi hoped to lead them away as soon as possible.
As Xu Zhizhi was looking at the three people, the skinny middle-aged man next to her looked at Xu Zhizhi with eagle eyes and looked at some firewood that was picked up nearby. "What are you doing picking up firewood?"
"It's too cold. Let me warm myself up." Xu Zhizhi said as she rubbed her hands to express her coldness.
The man stopped hesitating and said after thinking for a while: "We are going to find a grave today. Since you were trained by Lao Xu, you must know how to find it. Tell us everything."
Xu Zhizhi's eyes flickered slightly, knowing that the other party did not trust her, and she took out a map from her arms.
After thinking about what he knew about archaeology and the words of the geologist just now, he led the three of them to a valley.
"Look, what does this mountain look like!" Xu Zhizhi began to deceive.
Everyone looked around, confused.
Xu Zhizhi shook her head helplessly and said, "In Feng Shui, this is called a hidden dragon and crouching tiger's lair. The dragon is on the left and the tiger is on the right. The two complement each other... If I'm not mistaken, there is an ancient tomb at this location, and the other one is roughly at this location."
Xu Zhizhi took out the map prepared by the archaeological team and pointed to the location on the map.
The three of them looked at each other, surprised that Xu Zhizhi was quite amazing, because one of the locations was the tomb they found two days ago.
Later, I found that there might be more nearby, so I came back and invited others to search together. I didn't expect that the people sent by the other party were the younger generation, and I didn't expect that the younger generation was more powerful than the elders.
The middle-aged man pondered for a moment, "It seems that you are quite good at Feng Shui. You have inherited the Feng Shui from Old Xu. We originally thought that he would pass it down to his sons but not his daughters, but now it seems that he has been forced to do nothing by reality."
"Brother, let's go and take a look. If we really find it, we will be rich!" the skinny young man said excitedly.
Xu Zhizhi looked calm, with an unfathomable smile on her face.
In fact, she was quite nervous, afraid that the three of them would notice something was wrong.
Xu Zhizhi didn't breathe a sigh of relief until the three of them decided to set off.
Just like that, Xu Zhizhi followed the three people and headed to the location marked on the map.
Xu Zhizhi looked at them, put her hand into her large jacket bag, and typed a message to the leader of the archaeological team about the situation.
Xu Zhizhi knows her phone well and has a good memory, so she can guess most of the information without even looking at it.
For safety reasons, Xu Zhizhi briefly mentioned the danger and the words "help".
In this way, the other party will not rush to you in a hurry or ask for other help.
At the same time, Xu Zhizhi pressed the location button to make it easier for the other party to locate her.
Qin Su will also notify him, maybe he is used to it.
Xu Zhizhi thought with a wry smile.
Just as Xu Zhizhi finished clicking send, the middle-aged man turned around and looked at Xu Zhizhi, "What are you dithering for?"
"My legs are not as strong as yours..." Xu Zhizhi was not like ordinary people who would easily reveal their thoughts when encountering danger. She replied to the middle-aged man calmly.
The man looked at Xu Zhizhi, didn't notice anything wrong, and continued walking forward.
They had been traveling for a long time, and now the destination was not too far away.
In just over twenty minutes, we arrived at the location of Xu Zhizhi's circle.
But there was a cliff in front of them, and the three of them looked at Xu Zhizhi intently.
After Xu Zhizhi looked around and pondered, he calmed down and looked at the three people. "This cliff is only seven or eight meters high, and it is a landform formed later, with signs of collapse."
Xu Zhizhi pointed to the dirt dividing line in the distance, described it, and indicated that they could go down as the tomb should be nearby.
The three of them thought it made sense and started to tie the ropes and head down.
Xu Zhizhi was the first one to come, and she guessed that the three people did not trust her.
In the lush forest, as the weather gets better, insects and birds chirp, and more animals are seen moving around.
After Xu Zhizhi went down, she looked around carefully and noticed something was wrong.
After they came down, Xu Zhizhi went straight forward, took off the long tool on the young man's back, found the direction and inserted it into the soil.
After a series of operations, Xu Zhizhi pulled out the tools, and the three of them saw the green paste on it.
This is a kind of soil used to seal tombs in ancient times. As long as this thing exists, it can almost be determined that there is a tomb underneath.
Xu Zhizhi also understood after doing archaeological research. After all, some of the early archaeologists were "professionals."
Some tools are common.
The three of them watched Xu Zhizhi's operation, and their eyes towards Xu Zhizhi changed immediately. In their opinion, Xu Zhizhi was a real talent.
The doubt in the middle-aged man's eyes completely disappeared, and all that was left was strong interest.
"Do you know where to dig a hole?" asked the middle-aged man.
They could indeed look for it, but since Xu Zhizhi had a master, it would be easier for her to do so, so they wouldn't have to do some useless work.
Xu Zhizhi's face became solemn, and she began to gesture with her hands.
In fact, she was wondering whether Qin Su and the archaeological team could find her.
Of course, based on Xu Zhizhi's experience, there is a high probability that some of the information here has already been dug up.
It's not because she is so powerful, but because there is a concave place like a cave entrance in the southwest corner.
She slowly walked to the place, took out the engineer shovel and dug a little, then looked at the three people and said, "There is a thief's hole here, and only part of the surface is buried."
The three of them were very excited and stepped forward to pull Xu Zhizhi away.
Xu Zhizhi looked at them coldly.
But when the middle-aged man turned around, she showed her innocent look again.
The man looked at Xu Zhizhi and said, "You are waiting for us up there? The three of us will go down."
As someone who joined halfway, Xu Zhizhi definitely couldn't go down.
Xu Zhizhi nodded obediently.
The three of them paid their respects, and after testing the situation inside the cave, they crawled into the cave one after another.
Xu Zhizhi watched them go in and felt relieved.
Tumu Cang was taken away by the other side. Xu Zhizhi was not in a hurry. She was thinking about escaping.
Fearing that the three would run away, Xu Zhizhi placed her positioning ring at the bottom of their backpacks.
This way, even if the opponent leaves, you can still locate and capture him.
After doing all this, Xu Zhizhi climbed up the cliff along the rope, put away the rope, turned around and headed towards the direction of the archaeological team.
When the archaeological team saw Xu Zhizhi returning, they were very excited. They had already called the police, but this place was too remote and they would have to wait a long time.
They were worried that something might have happened to Xu Zhizhi, but they didn't expect that Xu Zhizhi came back on her own.
Xu Zhizhi briefly described what happened and then passed on some detailed clues to the police.
Upon hearing this, the archaeological team looked at each other in bewilderment, and even the guide's expression changed.
There is a wooden warehouse, which is extremely dangerous for everyone.
Xu Zhizhi looked at everyone and suggested, "Let's go back and meet up with the police first."
This is the safest method. Part of the team is made up of middle-aged and elderly people, and part is ordinary people. It is impossible for them to have a head-on conflict with the other side.
"Okay! Let's go back first!" said the guide.
Everyone put out the fire, put on their backpacks and went back the way they came.
An hour later, they joined the police team that arrived.
After careful consideration, the archaeological team returned, and Xu Zhizhi and the guide led the police into the mountains.
The police were equipped with wooden warehouses in case of any accidents.
Xu Zhizhi estimated that it would take some time to get out of the cave, so if they hurried they would have a chance to catch the person.
The group hurried forward and were quickly led forward by the guide and Xu Zhizhi.
They arrived at the scene breathlessly, lowered a rope and a group of people went down, then lay in wait.
Because the suspect has a wooden warehouse in his hand, we must ambush him and make sure we can subdue him as soon as we strike.
Six policemen, Xu Zhizhi and the guide, a total of eight people, breathed slowly and waited for them.
After waiting for half an hour, there was movement in the thief hole and a young man climbed out.
Next came the skinny middle-aged man, and finally the fierce middle-aged man, who was also the leader, was left.
Just as the three were mumbling about their trophies, the police rushed out and pinned several people to the ground.
When the middle-aged man was handcuffed, he looked at Xu Zhizhi in shock, "You actually called the police to arrest us! Aren't you afraid that everything about your family will be exposed?"
"My name is Xu Zhizhi. I'm a member of the archaeological team, not your guide." Xu Zhizhi said coldly.
The middle-aged man was confused and didn't quite understand what Xu Zhizhi said.
At this moment, there was movement in the nearby forest.
Everyone looked over and saw a young man appear in their sight, staring at the scene in shock.
The police quickly stepped forward to question him and got the result.
This person who showed up later was the one who connected with the three people.
Xu Zhizhi frowned, the other party's face blindness was quite serious.
The policeman was also curious and took out the other party's old mobile phone to look at it.
The blurry picture quality blurred out the policeman's face, which was an ordinary face. It was probably taken with a similar old-fashioned phone. It was not a direct photo of the person, but a photo in a frame.
The leading police officer compared Xu Zhizhi and said, "They do look a bit alike, but how could they get the gender wrong?"
The middle-aged man's face was numb. He didn't even dare to think about how he was fooled at that time.
The young man was also taken away along the way.
A total of four people were arrested.
Xu Zhizhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She and Qin Su thought the coincidence was too ridiculous even when they were on the phone.
Qin Su was helpless and worried. If Xu Zhizhi's physical condition had not appeared by chance, he would have wanted to follow Xu Zhizhi 24 hours a day to prevent her from getting into trouble again.
It had been quiet for more than a year.
Xu Zhizhi comforted Qin Suo instead, saying that at least he didn't have to worry about anything happening in the future.
Qin Su remained silent, obviously trapped by Xu Zhizhi's logic.
The crew looked at all the footage Xu Zhizhi had obtained, thinking that if this clip was broadcast, their documentary would become a hit.
But now is definitely not the time to think about this. They had originally planned to excavate one tomb for rescue, but now it has turned into two.
Everyone also praised that Xu Zhizhi was really good at finding graves.
Xu Zhizhi thought of the Feng Shui books she occasionally read and fell silent, because she had never thought it was true. When she found it, she was even more surprised than the other party.
After the storm, everyone started digging. After hiring villagers to dig out the outer layer, everyone began the daily boring digging and sweeping mode.
The princess' tomb was severely robbed and there is nothing left inside.
Fortunately, the group of grave robbers Xu Zhizhi encountered were the ones who robbed this tomb, and they had not yet had time to dispose of the loot.
The second tomb is that of a duke, with many burial objects and some items of archaeological value.
Only the outer tomb chamber was damaged, but the main funerary objects inside were intact and could be excavated properly.
By the time Xu Zhizhi returned, three or four months had passed.
Feng Jie was surprised that Xu Zhizhi had become rough, but fortunately, natural beauty is hard to give up and can be restored with care.
Feng Jie was originally planning to go with them, but was firmly rejected by Xu Zhizhi. She decided to learn more in the company and help Yun Ziwei manage the studio.
Yun Ziwei was completely indifferent when facing Xu Zhizhi. She no longer asked Xu Zhizhi for anything. It was not because she was disappointed, but because Xu Zhizhi had taken her acting jobs too seriously in recent years, and she did not want Xu Zhizhi to be too tired.
Now in the studio, most of the items displayed are various trophies won by Xu Zhizhi.
There is even an international one, which is already the top in the entertainment industry.
Looking back to the past, Xu Zhizhi was still an actress surrounded by negative news, and she was also prepared to treat the other party in a Buddhist way.
Unexpectedly, within a short period of time, he became famous by creating his own unique path and gradually became an evergreen in the entertainment industry.
The honor is even something that some actors are jealous of.
Therefore, Yun Ziwei did not make any requests and has not brought any other stars with her over the years.
The actors in the studio are all managed by hired agents.
Xu Zhizhi occasionally takes him to walk on the red carpet or something like that to increase his popularity.
Xu Zhizhi wiped the hand cream on her hands, looked at the thoughtful Yun Ziwei, and asked with a smile about the recent situation of her studio.
Yun Ziwei told the truth.
After Xu Zhizhi asked the question, she quietly slipped away. After all, she was just going through the motions.
Feng Jie also followed, she wanted to go out and play with Xu Zhizhi~
Later in the day, Xu Zhizhi took on another movie about kidnapping, in which she played a mother who was looking for her child. Not surprisingly, she won the Best Actress award again.
By the way, he saved several children and women, and then came up with an alternative application of hacking technology.
Finally, it was sent to the government for use and successfully served hundreds of families.
Gradually Xu Zhizhi will learn to develop more uses for the system and use it in the right way.
Just like she had before.
Qin Su continued to silently support Xu Zhizhi.
As for the documentary, just as the production team expected, it sparked discussion all over the internet after it was aired.
The documentary also became popular, leaving a significant mark in the archaeological community.
The audience also went deep into the front line and learned the first-hand perspective of Xu Zhizhi's true dealings with criminals behind some rumors.
There are even many short videos with the same plot.
As she spent more time in the entertainment industry, she received more and more honors. Many years later, Xu Zhizhi won the Lifetime Achievement Award from an authoritative figure in the entertainment industry.
At the same time, she also won some official awards.
Because the more than 200 girls she has sponsored have walked out of their poor families and the mountains, and are working in various industries.
In addition to these, there is also the story of Xu Zhizhi helping others and even recovering the money that was defrauded from many people.
Many years later, when all the criminals were arrested and dead without leaving any bones, what Xu Zhizhi had done was finally known to the outside world.
At the award ceremony, every single one of the awards moved countless people.
Everyone felt that Xu Zhizhi deserved the award.
At that time, Li Feng was released from prison. Looking at the good things that happened on the screen, he shed tears of regret.
His arrogance and prejudice led to mistakes.
How could such a person be a bad person? How could he be led astray?
It's because he is too greedy and unwilling to accept reality.
He also understood his son's character more clearly, that he was the devil.
For the rest of his life, he will protect him and prevent him from doing anything evil.
Xu Zhizhi knew nothing about this.
At the age of 33, Xu Zhizhi had a daughter.
A few years later, Xu Zhizhi retired from the entertainment industry.
She didn't quit completely and still worked in some positions.
Qin Suo was originally forced to return home to inherit the family business, but after his daughter was born, he was forced to train his daughter to inherit the family business.
Later, the two traveled around the world.
Grow old together, grow old together.
In her old age, Xu Zhizhi recalled some of her erased memories.
She was curious about the life of the other Xu Zhizhi who became a lawyer in the parallel universe.
Are both parties satisfied with this exchange of lives?
There is also the pain hidden in time, whether the other party has let it go.
