Meanwhile, the two people whose phones had already been turned off...
One flew to a remote mountainous area, while the other flew off on a business trip.
My wife isn't here...
Lu Shiyan could only numb himself with work.
not to mention……
Business trips are something that...
For him, it had long been a daily routine.
Because of Jiang Li's presence, he tends to delegate projects that are not specifically assigned to him to others.
But now...
For example, when your wife isn't around...
For more challenging projects, he also needs to personally go and take a look.
Anyway, I'm just killing time, aren't I?
Jiang Li took a nap on the plane, and after getting off the plane, she went to the agreed location.
The archaeological team has already arranged for a driver to wait for Jiang Li.
Jiang Li came here by herself, without anyone accompanying her.
The metaphysics association wanted to send Jiang Li an assistant, but Jiang Li felt it was a burden and declined.
Gu Tao was happy about this, but also felt melancholy.
The reason for her happiness was that Jiang Li herself was very confident and had a good grasp of the matter.
What's disheartening is...
If an assistant were to accompany Jiang Li, she could learn some knowledge and experience from them.
It's just a pity...
No one has that kind of luck.
"You...you are the master sent by the Metaphysics Association this time?" When the driver saw Jiang Li, he was a little doubtful of his eyes, and he asked the question with a bit of guilt.
Before he arrived, someone had warned him that the master who came this time might be a bit young, and that he should be careful not to mistake the person for someone else.
But……
Now that I've seen the real person...
All he wanted to say was...
This master is more than just a little young...
This is incredibly small, isn't it?!
It's so tiny...
Are you an adult?
Is she really capable of handling the situation inside the ancient tomb?
The driver was overwhelmed with thoughts.
However, since the other party was sent by the Metaphysics Association, he only dared to think this in his heart and dared not show it on his face.
then……
He could only try to probe for something, hoping to get some information out of the girl.
"Young lady, how old are you?" The driver asked, a hint of curiosity on his face. "You look quite young. How long have you been in the Metaphysics Association? Has it been a year?"
Jiang Li looked up at the driver, chuckled, and replied, "I'm already an adult. As for how long I've been in the Metaphysics Association..."
Jiang Li's lips curved upwards a little more, and amidst the driver's increasingly uneasy expression, she slowly said, "We've only been here for a few days, and I can count the number of people who have come on my fingers."
What Jiang Li didn't say was...
She was only an unofficial member, barely qualifying as an advisor to the Metaphysics Association, but in reality, she wasn't a true member of the Metaphysics Association at all.
If he said that out loud, the driver...
They would probably be even more terrified.
driver:"……"
It’s over…
Why are the people from the Metaphysics Association so unreliable this time?
How could they be so at ease letting a young girl who had only been a member of the Metaphysics Association for a few days and had barely come of age handle this matter?
It seems...
The situation they've encountered this time is probably going to be difficult to handle.
"Um..." After careful consideration, the driver turned to Jiang Li and said, "Young lady, did the Metaphysics Association tell you that this matter is a bit tricky and not easy to handle?"
Jiang Li nodded. "I did tell you, but I'll have to see the details before I can make an accurate judgment. The troublesome situation you're talking about might be different from what I think it is."
driver:"……"
He was also worried that the young girl was oversimplifying the issue.
well……
But since they're already here, let's go check them out first.
If it really can't be handled properly...
I'll also report this to the Metaphysics Association and ask them to send a few capable people over.
"Uncle, please don't worry," Jiang Li said earnestly to the driver. "Although I'm a bit young, my abilities are actually... not bad, are they?"
Jiang Li finally used a rather euphemistic word.
That's too much self-praise...
Does it make her seem arrogant?
so……
Um……
Tone it down a bit.
result……
Jiang Li's restraint...
The driver interpreted it as a sign of insecurity, and simply said, "Not bad..."
He sounded extremely guilty.
I wonder how such a young girl got into the Metaphysics Association?
but……
Let's think about it from a different perspective...
Since you were able to join the Metaphysics Association...
You must have some skills, right?
Otherwise, the Metaphysics Association wouldn't have sent someone who knows nothing about metaphysics.
Through constant doubt and self-persuasion, the driver took Jiang Li to her destination.
It was a rather remote and dilapidated little hotel. Although the environment wasn't great, the place was at least clean. In such a place, having a place to stay was already quite good.
"You..." The driver led Jiang Li to the room that had been prepared for her, still somewhat worried, "This place is a bit run-down, young lady, will you be able to get used to it?"
Jiang Li looks like an innocent princess who was pampered by her family and didn't seem like the kind of person who would want to live in a place like this.
Jiang Li felt underestimated, but she smiled and said, "Don't worry, now that I'm here, I will obey and accept all the arrangements made here. Don't be deceived by my age and appearance. I used to often spend the night in the mountains, so this environment is already quite good."
driver:"……"
I seriously doubt the veracity of Jiang Li's words.
However, he didn't want to ask too many questions. He could only make arrangements for the people first, and deal with the rest later.
"Then why don't you rest for a bit, and come with me to take a look this afternoon?" the driver thought for a moment and said to Jiang Li.
“No need to rest, I already rested on the plane,” Jiang Li decided. “Let’s go straight there.”
"It's already noon, you should at least eat something before you go," the driver said.
Jiang Li did not reject the suggestion.
"Then let's take it and eat it on the way, which will save some time."
"Okay." The driver replied and went to get lunch for Jiang Li.
For convenience, they prepared some instant food products.
This makes it convenient for them to carry.
After all, the ancient tomb is not close to here, and it would be a waste of time to travel back and forth just to have a meal.
However, if you bring food from the hotel, it will spoil by the time you eat it in this hot weather.
Therefore, they can only have a proper meal when they are in a hotel.
Jiang Li ate a simple meal and then went to the ancient tomb with the driver.
And let me tell you, this terrain is incredibly rugged.
If it weren't for the car's good performance, I probably wouldn't have been able to drive it all the way here.
The journey was bumpy and took an hour...
Jiang Li finally arrived near the ancient tomb.
The driver stopped the car and led Jiang Li inside. "I'm sorry, young lady, cars can't drive in here anymore. You'll have to walk with me for a while."
"It's nothing." Jiang Li didn't seem to care much about it. She looked at the driver and said, "Uncle, you can just call me Jiang Li. Besides, I'm really not some delicate young lady. Don't treat me like I'm afraid of breaking something."
driver:"……"
It wasn't that he wanted it to be this way, but seeing Jiang Li like this...
He simply couldn't control himself.
Jiang Li is about the same age as her own daughter, and looking at this little girl, she is really afraid that she will bump into something or get hurt.
His fatherly love is overflowing!
