I'm not a drama god

Shennongjia.

When Yang Xiao arrived, it was already late at night.

Outside the car window, inky clouds slowly moved over the mountains, a drizzle of rain fell, and the air was filled with the smell of damp earth... The silent mountains in the distance seemed like a giant beast crawling in the darkness, majestic and mysterious.

Yang Xiao was sitting in a military vehicle. The bumpy road made him sway unconsciously. He looked through the window at the primitive jungle in the distance shrouded in rain. For a moment, he felt a little dazed...

The same Shennongjia, the same night, the same drizzle...

Everything seemed to have returned to the night of the Chixing exploration.

"Dr. Yang, the road ahead is closed." A voice came from the driver's seat, "But don't worry, we have already sent people to the primitive jungle. We will escort you there, and someone will meet you there."

Yang Xiao nodded slightly, "Thank you."

The car door opened and someone immediately came forward to hold an umbrella for Yang Xiao. Not far away was a military base. The drizzle looked like floating gossamer under the high-powered lighting. The camouflage tents fluttered in the wind under the lights. Several figures had been waiting outside the tents for a long time.

Yang Xiao walked straight towards the tent in front.

"Has anyone arrived yet?" Yang Xiao asked.

"Yes, Dr. Su arrived an hour earlier than you and has already gone in." A figure answered.

"After your last exploration, we built a research camp at the location of the meteorite crater. It has electricity, food, water, and some scientific research equipment. You can go there directly to meet up, and we will send someone to take you there."

"Thank you."

Yang Xiao put on a special black raincoat made by the military and boots that allowed him to walk freely in the muddy mountains. Just as he was about to leave, the man hesitated for a moment and then spoke again:

"Dr. Yang, there is one more thing I want to remind you of."

"what?"

"We have received intelligence that the United States has mobilized some of the job-changers and death squads hiding in our country, and they are approaching Shennongjia... We suspect that they are coming for you all."

Yang Xiao frowned slightly.

Yang Xiao's killing of the Seventh Fleet has probably caused a stir among the top American officials. It is inevitable that they will use means to investigate his origins. Once they conduct an in-depth investigation, the existence of Jiu Jun will be discovered sooner or later. After all, there is no wall that is impenetrable...

Now it seems that they probably realized how strong the threat of Jiujun was, so they sent people to Shennongjia to try to assassinate them.

They might not dare to assassinate me, but it's hard to say about the other colleagues... Their current combat power levels are uneven, and these job-changers and death squads will still gain something even if they can kill only one of the Nine Lords in advance.

"Although we have already set up an ambush nearby, Shennongjia is too big and we cannot guarantee absolute safety... If possible, I would still suggest that you move to the capital for the meeting, where the safety will be much higher."

Yang Xiao looked down at the time and shook his head:

"No need... With me here, they can't make any waves."

Chen Ling had repeatedly emphasized to him that the Nine Lords Meeting must be held within 24 hours. Now it had already taken nearly twenty hours just to mobilize the other Nine Lords from all over the world to come to Shennongjia. If they had to go to the capital, there would definitely not be enough time.

What's more, Yang Xiao's strength has improved by leaps and bounds now. In this era, there should be no Shintoists who can pose a threat to him. He can completely suppress those people in the United States alone.

Since Yang Xiao said so, the others naturally had no objections and directly led Yang Xiao towards the meteorite crater deep in Shennongjia.

As Yang Xiao walked, he looked into the shadows of the jungle beside him...

A shadow of a person in a bright red opera robe flashed by.

……

“I actually caught up…”

Lu Xun glanced at the time on the bus and looked at Wu Tongyuan who was sitting next to him with a strange expression, "Shortening the original 20-day journey to 20 hours... How did you do it?"

Wu Tongyuan blinked and said, "I don't know... maybe I'm just lucky."

"luck?"

Lu Xun seemed to be so angry that he laughed, "Okay, then I won't ask anymore, you can continue to play the pig and eat the tiger..."

"No, Old Lu, I really don't understand what my ability is... I'm just lucky this time!" Wu Tongyuan waved his hands anxiously.

"Go, go, go."

The vehicle stopped at the end of the road in Shennongjia, and the two got out one after another. The lights above the tents in the distance made the surrounding rain blurred.

"Dr. Lu, Dr. Wu." Someone was already waiting outside the tent.

Lu Xun and Wu Tongyuan walked into the tent. The latter took a dry towel and wiped the rain off his body. He also grabbed a piece of chocolate on the table. Seeing this, the figure next to him simply took a dozen energy bars and handed them to him.

Lu Xun didn't pay any attention to Wu Tongyuan's actions at all. He looked at the time on the wall again. There were less than 24 hours left before Yang Xiao's 3-hour deadline.

"Except for us, everyone else should have arrived, right?" Lu Xun asked.

"Yes." The man nodded. "Dr. Su arrived first, followed by Dr. Yang and Dr. Ji... Dr. Qi and Dr. Wen arrived together and went in just over half an hour ago..."

"The protagonist always appears last." Wu Tongyuan added with a smile.

Lu Xun suddenly remembered something:

"By the way, what about Lou Yu?"

"Dr. Lou... I don't know. Dr. Yang didn't seem to say he would come."

Although Lu Xun was puzzled, he nodded slightly, "Anyway, let's go in first..."

Lu Xun and Wu Tongyuan put on their equipment and were about to set off for the crater. At this moment, two beams of car lights cut through the night sky of Shennongjia and drove straight towards the tent.

Wu Tongyuan was stunned. "Didn't they say that no one was there? Then whose car is this?"

The figure in military uniform was also a little confused. He picked up the walkie-talkie and was about to ask something. The next moment, the door of the car parked in front of the tent was opened.

A frail figure, using a briefcase to shield himself from the rain, trotted out of the car and ran into the tent.

Due to the distance and dim lighting, Lu Xun and Wu Tongyuan could not see the man's face clearly until he had spoken a few words to someone in the tent. Then he suddenly looked here and was slightly stunned when he saw Lu Xun.

"Lu Xun!" The man's tone was a little surprised.

"Lou Yu??"

Hearing this familiar voice, Lu Xun and Wu Tongyuan looked at each other, then turned around and walked towards the tent.

"Didn't they say Yang Xiao didn't look for him...then why is he here?"

Wu Tongyuan muttered in confusion.
