It started with being betrayed by my ex-boyfriend
Chapter 179 Mission
After the village chief had settled everything, he left and called Ah Wu out to give him some instructions. Bai Yunxi looked at Jin Yunlu, who was eager to try, and said with disdain, "Are you really here to play?"
Ji Hanmo and the others haven’t started their serious business yet!
Tsk tsk, Jin Yunlu pursed his lips and said, "The CEOs of the Ji and Tao families are both here, why are you worrying? If they really want to do something serious, there is no way out. Do they need to come here in person? The background of the Tao family and the strength of the Ji family can raze this place to the ground in a minute! It's just a reason to bring you out to relax. Don't you understand at this time? Just have fun and they will naturally solve other problems! If you don't believe me, ask Ji Hanmo!"
Ji Hanmo didn't say anything, but the look he gave Bai Yunxi was one of clear agreement.
Bai Yunxi was suddenly a little embarrassed. She really thought they were here to do serious business!
Tao Jingchen smiled faintly and said, "We originally planned to stay here in the name of sightseeing to get a feel for the situation. We should try courtesy first and force later. If that doesn't work, we can try force. But we underestimated the villagers' reluctance to be outsiders, so we almost couldn't get in yesterday. Yunxi, you are our great helper. The village chief gave you face, so we were able to get in."
God assists...
Ji Hanmo was extremely happy. He signed the contract with the French company thanks to Bai Yunxi's help. It was the same this time. This stupid snail was really his lucky star!
After following the little guide out, Jin Yunlu finally understood why the village chief had arranged it this way: the village did not look big, but the houses inside were almost the same, and all the roads were winding, so one could easily get lost if not careful!
"How many years of history does your village have?" All the houses looked very old, without even a trace of cement or stone. This is rarely seen in other so-called ancient towns. Even later renovations would use cement and other things.
"It's been more than two hundred years." Awu walked slowly with Jin Yunlu and Bai Yunxi, and greeted the people who occasionally passed by.
The people in the house were busy with their own work and greeted him, but when they looked at Jin Yunlu and Bai Yunxi, their eyes were very wary.
A Wu shouted to them, "This is the guest the village chief was talking about." They nodded and continued to do their own things.
"Almost no one comes to our village, it's too remote. We haven't seen many strangers for months or years, so everyone is a little resistant." Awu turned his head and explained naively.
He accompanied them for a while and became familiar with them. He was no longer as reserved as when they first met.
"So no one in your village goes out?" Jin Yunlu couldn't help but feel curious.
"Yes, I went out and went to school, and then I came back."
Why did they come back to such a remote place when they had already left? Jin Yunlu glanced at Bai Yunxi and didn't dare to ask.
Ah Wu seemed to have guessed her thoughts and said with a smile: "I have my mission. I want to stay in the village."
Mission... This word made Bai Yunxi pause suddenly, and Jin Yunlu was turning to look at her.
"What mission?"
Ah Wu scratched his head and just smiled: "I can't tell you. When the time is right, the village chief will tell you."
Huh? It looks so mysterious!
Jin Yunlu immediately laughed: "It sounds like a very glorious thing, right?"
"That's right!" Awu nodded very seriously.
Wow, in this day and age there are still people who are so convinced that they have an extraordinary mission. There are really not many people like this!
On one side of the village is a stretch of rolling hills, and on the other side is a dense forest. Although it is already autumn, the leaves have hardly fallen, and the towering trees are densely packed, a sea of deep green. Where can you see such a spectacular view in the city?
Bai Yunxi stood at the entrance of the village and took a few selfies with the forest as the background. Turning back, he saw Jin Yunlu constantly talking to the silly Awu. His heart moved, so he directly took a picture of the scene of them "having a good chat".
You know what, when Awu smiled naively, revealing a row of white teeth, he looked quite attractive!
When Jin Yunlu was talking to him, her expression was completely relaxed. She didn't look like a hard-working strong woman at all. Instead, she looked a bit naughty and shy like a little woman.
After taking the photo, she posted it on her circle of friends, and a guy with a turtle avatar's head had his eyes lit up, smiled maliciously, and directly forwarded the photo.
Not long after, someone commented on the photo he forwarded with four words: "Not doing your job!"
Ji Hanmo held the phone and his smile deepened.
Ah Wu took Bai Yunxi and the others around the village and came to a house. This place didn't look like a home, but rather a place for some kind of ceremony. Bai Yunxi looked at the layout in front of the house with the door tightly closed and suddenly remembered something: "Is this the village's ancestral hall?"
Ah Wu, who had been looking relaxed at first, walked here and immediately became serious, changing his attitude of chatting and laughing with Jin Yunlu. He nodded and said, "It is an ancestral hall, but not the one in the village. The one in the village is the one on the right."
"So what is this ancestral hall used for?" Jin Yunlu got to the point directly.
"The person enshrined here is a very important person to our entire village." Awu answered seriously.
"Can we go in and take a look?" Jin Yunlu suddenly became curious. She had only seen ancestral halls on TV since she was a child. She really wanted to see what a real ancestral hall looked like!
Ah Wu was so scared that he shook his head. "The village chief and his men are having a meeting in the ancestral hall over there. If they hear me, they will beat me to death! Besides, my mission does not allow me to offend them like this!"
Looking at his serious expression, you can tell that he is serious. When Bai Yunxi was at Murong's house, she also heard that places like ancestral halls usually have many taboos and outsiders are not allowed to enter. She pulled Jin Yunlu and said, "Yunlu, ancestral halls are usually a symbol of family dignity and honor. It is normal for outsiders not to enter. Let's not force them, right?"
Jin Yunlu pursed his lips and said, "Well, then I won't go."
Places like ancestral halls are nothing more than a few tablets for the dead, there's really nothing much to see!
Walking back, apart from a few houses, there didn't seem to be anything special. Jin Yunlu couldn't help but mutter, "What on earth do Ji Hanmo and the others like about this place?"
She turned her head and looked at Bai Yunxi: "Do you know?"
Bai Yunxi shook his head: "How should I know? Just like you said, I came here just to have fun. I don't know anything else."
