"I can hardly call Aning a friend." Ling Xiao said with a smile, but his eyes were full of warning as he looked at Boss Chu.

"Isn't it a bit too hasty to send so many people to the fields based on just a few words without any evidence?" Ling Xiao's words were blunt, but they were also meant to criticize Wu Xie.

Wu Xie immediately realized that this person might not be reliable, and it was uncertain whether what his third uncle said was true. If he rashly followed his wishes and went to the land, he would have nowhere to cry if he were sold.

Boss Chu hadn't expected anyone to question him like this, especially not so bluntly. He was momentarily embarrassed and his face turned sour, but it only lasted a moment before he smiled calmly and said, "I can see that you don't trust me, young man. But you can trust Master Wu, right? Master Wu entrusted me with such an important task because he trusts me. Otherwise, I wouldn't be wasting my time here with everyone."

Wu Xie also asked Pan Zi in a low voice, and Pan Zi replied in a low voice: "Pan Zi is a soldier, so he can judge people well. It must be true that he wants us to go down into the tomb."

"Let's just follow Uncle's arrangements. Uncle's arrangements are never wrong." Wu Xie breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Pan Zi's words.

"I'll take you to see the meteor shower, falling on this earth, so that your tears will fall on my shoulder..." A cell phone rang, and everyone except Ling Xiao subconsciously looked to see the source, only to find that it was Boss Chu's cell phone ringing.

Well... it's actually quite trendy...

"My daughter set it up for me... uh..." Boss Chu awkwardly touched his non-existent hair, glanced at the caller ID, and looked up with a puzzled expression.

The young man said, "It's true."

"What do you mean, really?" Wu Xie asked, puzzled, not understanding what the young man was up to.

The young man took out his phone and showed everyone the messages someone had sent him a few days ago, which were also sent under the name Wu Sansheng. Then the young man redialed the number.

'I'll stay with you...'

"So, young man, you want to prove that Boss Chu was indeed entrusted by Master Wu?" the fat man asked the young man.

Although Xiao Ge is a well-known figure in the industry, and is known as "Southern Blind and Northern Mute" along with Hei Xiazi, in stark contrast to Hei Xiazi's widespread use of his contact information, not many people know Xiao Ge's phone number. Boss Chu was able to contact Xiao Ge most likely because Wu Sansheng provided the contact information.

Ling Xiao didn't hear his phone ring after the first call, so he didn't know why Boss Chu would suddenly mention his daughter. But after seeing what the guy did, he understood; it seemed the guy was definitely going.

The fat man couldn't understand what the young man meant. They had clearly agreed to stop Lingzi from going into the tomb together, but now Lingzi had proactively said he wouldn't go. They could just follow this suggestion and climb over there; then no one would go, and the tomb would be nearing its end soon...

Seemingly sensing the fat man's complaint, the young man unusually offered an explanation: "I'll go."

He needs to find his things; he can go by himself.

With the young man's testimony, Ling Xiao naturally stopped saying that Boss Chu's words were untrustworthy. He turned to Wu Xie and asked, "Do you want me to go?"

Wu Xie opened his mouth, caught in a dilemma. He definitely wanted to go find his third uncle. Normally, if Boss Chu had only asked him and Pan Zi, they would already be packing their gear and waiting to set off early the next morning. But saying that he missed him would obviously go against what they had said before.

He said he didn't want to, but his third uncle specifically asked Lingzi to go. Good heavens! He's in such a dilemma. What exactly is his third uncle up to?!
