Chapter 93 Wu Xie: As Smart as Me

"Are you tired? You've been walking around for several kilometers."

Wu Suowei looked at the mute girl and the man with black glasses with a smile on his face.

As a professional tomb digger, once a new tomb is discovered, there will be conflicts of interest.

Choosing to be ordinary means choosing to be manipulated by the powerful. Living with ordinary people is basically impossible.

Ordinary people like the mute girl don’t have much intersection with us. She is just a passer-by in life.

If there is too much overlap, it will only become a burden in life.

"Sit for a while. I'm leaving first. I have a meeting tomorrow morning. You..." Wu Suowei pointed at the black glasses but didn't say the last words.

The man with black glasses knew what he was going to say. He looked at Wu Suowei's back as he walked into the house, and also glanced at the mute girl sitting next to him.

He took a deep breath, then walked towards the room without any reluctance.

But halfway through the journey, he finally realized how comfortable his life as a lone ranger had been.

This time, he was tied up, but he was nervous. If he said it, it would hurt people, but if he didn't say it, it would still hurt people in the end.

He wants to be willing to give up, and there will be gains if he gives up.

But the word "give up" comes first, and I let it go first, and I feel so uncomfortable in my heart.

The man with black glasses turned around helplessly: "Hey, come with me."

....................................

At the meeting the next morning, Wu Erbai sat in the main seat, and Erjing operated the projector, switching the screens while explaining.

Except for the man with black glasses who was late, all other important people had arrived.

"Boss Jiao's goal now seems very clear, it is for the underground river. These mercenaries come from different countries. Notice that they all have a seahorse tattoo on their arms."

Erjing immediately switched the screen.

"This white man is called Ahaz, the leader of this group of mercenaries. His name is very popular. But his people are not so popular. They set up a company called Balan.

“Specializing in providing weapons and troops to some organizations.

Wu Erbai looked solemn, looking at everyone in the room, pretending to be surprised and reminding: "Such mercenaries should be on the battlefield, why are they here?"

"Everyone must be careful."

Everyone looked thoughtful, except for the fat man who was absent-mindedly cutting his nails with nail clippers, which made a loud clicking sound.

Hearing this, the fat man smiled and told everyone to be careful because they wanted to get rich together.

Suddenly, there was the sound of a door being pushed open.

"Sorry, I'm late." At this time, the man with black glasses walked in with an apologetic look on his face.

Turning around, he saw him holding a bunch of lollipops and two bottles of beer. Wu Suowei rolled his eyes.

He has come from a thousand miles away to poison.

After dinner yesterday, I wanted to listen to his gossip and thought that the man with black glasses would do something with the mute girl, but they didn't do anything.

Wu Suowei actually hoped that the two of them could do something once he had a family and something to care about.

The final result was that either Wu Erbai asked him to withdraw for his safety, or he chose to withdraw himself when he saw Wu Erbai was in trouble.

No matter what choice was made, Wu Suowei would be involved. After listening for a long time, Black Glasses ran to his godson's room to find a strong anesthetic.

"Hey, fast boy, you look good." Wu Suowei said and raised his index finger.

Fatty and Wu Xie looked over with smiles on their faces, and sure enough, his face was rosy and full of smiles.

"Money is a bit tight lately." Wu Xie said with a smile.

The man with black glasses had a smile on his face: "Come on, Wu Suowei, eat some wedding candy to stop your mouth."

Then he patted Fatty and Wu Xie on the shoulders and said mysteriously, "I'll buy you a drink."

The fat man who was busy trimming his nails in the meeting didn't even raise his head and said directly: "Oh, you've grown up and become sensible. Why don't you open it for us?"

Wu Xie ignored the fat man and glanced at the beer with some caution.

It's no use being nice. Black Glasses is not the kind of person who gives them things for no reason.

Wu Xie had been in the business before, and he also had some knowledge of people's expressions. However, his face remained the same.

What's more, Black Glasses was late today, so it doesn't seem like a situation worth being happy about.

Instead, Wu Erbai simply said hello, which was not the style of Wu Erbai and Black Glasses.

There was also Wu Suowei looking at the lollipop on the table with a thoughtful expression.

Something must be wrong.

Wu Xie looked at Black Glasses and Wu Erbai with some suspicion, and reached out to open the beer can.

Although I don’t know what they are up to, there must be something wrong with the thing that Black Glasses brought over!
Humph, smart as me.

Wu Xie glanced at the two of them with a smile, and while drinking, he was careful to be cautious.

The fat guy was a simple-minded person. He was quite happy when he saw the beer. He was just bored listening to Wu Erbai's PPT presentation which was like a class.

"Thank you."

"You are quite righteous, Black Blind Man."

Although Wu Xie had some doubts, he couldn't show them now. He wanted to see what they had done.

Hei Xia Zi's expression didn't change much. After all, he didn't feel guilty about lying, and what's more, he was just trying to trick the people around him.

Harmless.

Wu Suowei ignored them and continued thinking about the problem.

This time, after the confrontation with Boss Jiao and obtaining further clues, we realized that the gap was obvious.

Our forces are personnel from Southeast Asian security companies with excellent weapons and equipment.

But the enemy is a large number of mercenaries and they are also arms suppliers to various organizations.

Without external aid and relying on brains to fight head-on, we may not say that we will lose, but the sacrifice will still be great.

To reduce the losses, we need the help of the gun dealer.

As he was thinking about it, Wu Suowei also picked up the lollipop on the table.

"Thanks, Black Glasses. I'm welcome too."

Wu Xie watched Wu Suowei eat Black Mirror's lollipop, wondering what he was up to. But he had to be careful too.

Seeing that everyone was eating and drinking, the man with black glasses was smiling. But when he looked at Wu Erbai, his expression became serious.

"According to the murals I saw and the information I collected, this underground river is very long and it would take several months to reach the end."

"The Third Master went in a long time ago and hasn't come out yet. I think the chances of survival are slim."

Wu Erbai looked thoughtful, and the sound of nail clipping rang in his ears.

This meeting is very important, and there are important clues to be discussed, but the fat guy is still here, careless and not paying any attention.

"Fatty, calm down!" Wu Erbai reminded.

Seeing that everyone pricked up their ears again, Wu Erbai organized his words: "In the Luoyun Kingdom of the South Sea, a kind of pigment with poisonous insects was mined in the underground river at that time."

"It was painted as a mural to prevent tomb robbers from entering the underground palace of the King of Nanhai."

"Your eyes are damaged by this pigment. If you don't treat it in time, poisonous insects will hatch in your eyes. Not only will you go blind, you will also die."

"There is another part, about the legend of the Mute Emperor. There is a part that I didn't tell you. When the Mute Emperor summoned the Thunder God, he was holding a divine weapon he picked up." "It fell with the meteor."

Wu Xie, who had incomplete data, immediately asked, "Does this King of the South China Sea have another magical weapon?"

"You need a magic weapon to listen to thunder? Is it the one on this mural?" Fatty Wang was surprised: "It's a hammer, right? Tsk tsk tsk, is it the kind with sheep horns? Oh, he also has an awl."

Fatty Wang tapped the table with his fingers and said, "This is strange. The King of the South China Sea is actually a carpenter. According to Fatty's speculation, shouldn't the King of the South China Sea hold a dung fork?"

"I'm going to kill you with my forks." Wu Xie pushed Fatty and turned to his uncle and said, "This was something the emperor used to fool people with. The king's power is granted by God, so the people should be obedient."

Wu Suowei shook his head: "There must be something to a legend, even though it is a bit exaggerated. But I am sure that this artifact must be used to help unlock the secrets of the thunder."

"Yes, I consulted the national archaeological team and the experts gave many explanations. One of them is that this artifact may come from a mysterious ancient civilization."

"The legend also mentioned that the King of the South Sea was able to achieve success with his divine weapon."

"We collected the treasures, but the South Sea Kingdom suddenly disappeared afterwards. The collected treasures and the artifact are also gone. I will provide you with more detailed information, and then you can make a judgment."

"We found this bronze reed in the central hall of the underground palace, which the ancients used to collect thunder sounds."

"They can gather thunder and then, through this reed, they can make sounds similar to ancient languages. We have also done experiments, but the results were unsuccessful."

"Find that one."

Wu Suowei squinted his eyes and listened to Wu Erbai's story with a smile on his face.

When Fatty Wang heard this story, he coughed.

What? Your experiment? This is our experiment.

We are us and you are you. You experiment on us and claim it is your experiment.

He spoke so logically and confidently, without even a change of expression on his face.

The fat man looked at Wu Xie and Wu Suowei who were sitting next to him, and tried to lower the volume as much as possible.

"Isn't this our experiment? How come Second Uncle is also involved? And they omitted us. How come we became the ellipsis?"

Wu Xie looked at his second uncle with a squinted eye. If his second uncle exploded at this moment, the fire would burn down the entire conference room.

He quickly took the beer bottle and said seriously, "Just be quiet."

Fatty Wang couldn't help but said, "No..."

“Stop talking nonsense.” Wu Xie put his finger to his mouth and made a gesture to keep quiet.

Wu Suowei nodded to the fat man. Seeing that no one was busy paying attention to him, the fat man lowered his head and continued to trim his nails.

"They can collect thunder of all frequencies and sort the sound waves into several fixed frequencies." Without the fat man's interruption, Wu Erbai's voice resumed.

After finishing his words, Wu Erbai thought for a moment and continued, "According to my guess, they went to Leicheng not to return the artifact to Leigong, but to carry out construction!"

"We have made a significant progress. Mu Xuehai found the map of Leicheng in the murals of the Nanhai King's underground palace."

"But he didn't report it that year, the map's whereabouts are unknown, and he has gone crazy. This may have something to do with Boss Jiao."

"Well, the Leicheng marked on the map should be in Southeast Asia according to the current territorial division."

The fairyland mentioned by the Dumb Village is Leicheng.

"As for Thunder City, it's deep in that underground river. The place Boss Jiao wants to go to the most right now is definitely Thunder City!"

"To get to Leicheng, you must first pass through the underground river. Even if you go in a straight line, the underground river is more than 1,200 kilometers long, and if it goes in a curve, it will be tens of thousands of kilometers long."

Wu Erbai's voice fell, and he bit his nails and muttered to himself "Fatty".

"Oh my god, tens of thousands of kilometers? Is Uncle San going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures? Or is he climbing snow-capped mountains and crossing grasslands?

You can't get stuck in there and not be able to come back, right? Are you going to farm in there?

Hey, when we find him, will he be a caveman?"

"Uncle San is not a fool. If there is no professional team to guide him, going down would be suicide. How could such a cunning person like Uncle San go down and farm?" Wu Xie said speechlessly.

Hearing Wuxie describe Wu Sanxing as a cunning person, Wu Erbai almost couldn't help laughing in front of everyone.

But he hid it very well, covering it with his hand, and turned to the puzzled Wu Xie and said, "You understand it all, how could I not know it?"

Wu Xie was speechless after the question. Seeing that he remained silent, Wu Erbai continued, "The missing map may be in his hands."

Map? Wu Xie's expression became more suspicious.

Seeing that Wu Xie had been led by him, Wu Erbai continued, "I can't figure out the logic behind your Third Uncle entering the underground river."

Finally, he told the truth: "We have run out of clues so far. Now we can only find clues in the underground river."

"Oh, what are we going to do in the fairyland and the Thunder City? Since we are not going to farm, then there must be some great treasure.

Before Fatty could finish his words, Wu Xie interrupted him: "All the answers are in the underground river."

The meeting ended, Wu Suowei followed behind Black Glasses.

It goes without saying that no matter how powerful the anesthetic is, it will not work on Wu Suowei.

I had to lower my head and think about how to lie down in a cool posture.

He hit his head straight, and then he was as limp as a noodle, and his legs were broken. He tried to make some jokes, but they didn't seem real.

How to pour it is a big research question.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard the voice of Black Glasses, which was particularly miserable.

Wu Suowei raised his head and saw the mute girl raising her foot, while the man with black glasses seemed to have been kicked down.

Just as the man with black glasses was about to get up, a bag hit him.

"What exactly do you want?" the man with black glasses said angrily and helplessly.

After he finished shouting, he looked around at the crowd, then he walked over arrogantly, got close to them, and whispered, "What on earth do you want to do?"

Wu Suowei almost laughed out loud when watching this scene. He gave him a thumbs down and booed him.

When the workers saw this scene, they quickly pretended not to see it.

"I want to go down to the underground river." The mute girl gestured.

"Go to the underground river? Okay, let's go to the underground river, right?" Then he handed all the bags around to her: "Here, here, all for you, go to the underground river."

The mute girl pushed the bag aside and glanced at Wu Suowei who was carrying a big knife on his back.

"That time you said you could protect me, but I almost died. Luckily, Wu Suowei and Zhang Qiling showed up."

The man with black glasses immediately gave Wu Suowei a middle finger: "You two are pretending to be cool."

Then he said to the mute girl with a depressed look: "At least I saved your head for you."

Tsk! The mute girl waved her hand to express her disdain.

Pointing at the head of the man with black glasses, he gestured: "You, be responsible for me!"

The man with black glasses was stunned. He hadn't done anything yet he was forced to take responsibility.

"I am responsible for you?"

His voice was full of doubt and drawn out, and it sounded like he had encountered the most incredible thing.

Wu Suowei and the people around him couldn't help but laugh out loud.
