Chapter 267

Wow, such strong contempt skills.

Brother Ma, Feng Sha, and the others who were about to raise their hands simultaneously held back.

"I’ll go with you," Xiao Yu came over, "I also need to scout the area to make sure there isn’t much danger; otherwise, the archaeological work can’t proceed."

"We’re still talking about archaeology... There are people in there, alive!"

Gong Jiu couldn’t help but say.

"That’s exactly why it’s even more meaningful for archaeology, after all, the civilization brought by living people is more vivid..." This voice sounded quite elderly. Upon hearing it, Sui Yi and the others turned toward Professor Ye.

He had woken up.

"Grandfather," Ye Changan helped Professor Ye sit up and gave him some water.

Exhaling, Professor Ye looked at Sui Yi: "Miss, thank you for saving me."

"You’re welcome," she said.

"Do you really need to go to the Ancient City now? Could you wait for me? I’ll join you."

Sui Yi looked at his complexion, "You’ll need at least one day to recover enough strength. Our food won’t last; we must enter the Ancient City as soon as possible to scout or fetch some food..."

Sui Yi’s analysis was correct, which is why Xiao Yu also made such a decision.

Professor Ye knew this, but being a lifelong researcher of the Ancient City, which was now within sight, how could he not be anxious? However, being hasty wouldn’t help, and would only burden the others...

Helpless, Professor Ye could only say, "If you’re going to that Ancient City, remember this: hearing is not as good as seeing, seeing is not as good as touching. This is one of the principles of our field of archaeology, no matter where you go, this holds true."

Both of them seemed thoughtful, then nodded in agreement.

However...

"I’ll go with you," Ye Changan’s words stunned everyone. Without waiting for Professor Ye or anyone else to object, she calmly said to Professor Ye, "Grandfather, although I am not a professional in archaeology, you can’t deny that I am not far behind others in this field. Especially regarding the Ancient City of Loulan, I understand it better than I understand myself."

"Captain Xiao, you can’t deny that my physical stamina and marksmanship are no weaker than any of your subordinates."

"And most importantly..."

Ye Changan looked at Professor Ye and slowly said, "I want to know what exactly the Ancient City of Loulan that took my parents’ lives is like..."

"Just like what you wanted to do for them, Grandfather, it’s also what I want to do for you."

——————

Xiao Yu and Sui Yi joining forces was indeed a display of formidable strength, but their knowledge of the Ancient City of Loulan was very limited. Considering all aspects, including an amateur archaeologist who was very knowledgeable about the Ancient City of Loulan and had both high IQ and EQ, it was a difficult choice not made lightly.

Sui Yi valued the last advantage the most, which was confirmed by Xiao Yu’s nod. Professor Ye, powerless to stop them, could only sigh and agree. After all, this mission had been thoroughly vetted and approved by Ye Changan, and now it seemed they could no longer be stopped.

So, the trio quickly formed their team, and after each shouldered their backpacks, they headed toward the Ancient City...

Watching the three of them leaving, Gong Jiu’s eyes filled with tears as she bit her handkerchief...

"I feel like Sui Yi doesn’t need me anymore~~ These two women aren’t even prettier than me~~"

"They’re smarter than you," someone retorted.

"..."

The PK duo started bickering again. Since their combined forces were not few, they weren’t afraid even if they met Wei Feng’s group. Thus, Sui Yi and the other two could rest assured. After all, Gong Jiu and the others weren’t simple people, and with the strong Xiang Nan with them, they should hopefully be safe...

"Hey, guide, now you’re the only guide left. You better not screw up," Brother Ma saw Gao Yi sitting silently by the side and went over to speak with him.

"Ah? I’m fine..."

"Fine? Then why aren’t you talking... Oh my, your clothes are still wet. Change them to dry, or you’ll be looking for trouble with a cold or fever! I can’t believe you’re a guide..."

"Hey, don’t take my clothes off, I’m just scared from all the unpleasant experiences we’ve had on this trip... I’ll do it myself~~"

Brother Ma teasingly lifted the hem of Gao Yi’s shirt, causing Gao Yi to change color in his face, yelling about this indecent pervert...

Professor Ye had regained some strength by now, and watching Flower Demon and Gong Jiu, suddenly his expression changed, his brow furrowed in thought.

Then he looked at Flower Demon and Gong Jiu with a flickering gaze...
