Wu Xie unfolded the crumpled paper stuck to the ground and mixed with liquid, revealing a sentence written on it:

This is the end. Anything beyond this point is beyond your capabilities. What Wu Sansheng wants is in the Snake-Eyebrow Bronze Fish. Return quickly.

This handwriting looks a bit like the young man's, but what does it have to do with his third uncle? Snake-browed bronze fish? All that effort for this? He has plenty more!

Not daring to let anyone discover it, he casually smeared the sticky liquid on the writing to indicate that he couldn't see anything, and then put it in his pocket.

"Wu Xie is quite dirty," Ling Xiao said to Jie Yuhua, who was watching the fun.

"We're being too particular, resorting to expediency in times of crisis," Xie Yuhua said with a smile.

"You certainly know how to make amends, old man." Ling Xiao chuckled, his accent slightly leaning towards Beijing dialect, seemingly to emphasize the joking nature of his words.

"Mr. Wang and I just had a chat, and we've decided to cooperate." Ah Ning, who had somehow gotten close to Wu Xie, explained her intentions.

“Cooperation? You should say that to Lingzi. You don’t have much credibility with me.” Wu Xie wiped his hands and made to turn back, but A Ning stopped him with a guilty look on her face.

"The underwater tomb was not my intention, and saying goodbye to someone shouldn't be considered leaving without saying goodbye. I have my reasons for this."

"Then tell me, what exactly are you looking for in the underwater tomb? If you tell me, I'll cooperate with you," Wu Xie said.

Ah Ning was puzzled for a long time, and finally asked incredulously, "You don't know anything? Wu Sansheng didn't say anything? What about Ling Xiao? He doesn't know anything either?"

“I’ve been like a headless fly all this time. My third uncle doesn’t tell me anything, and everything is ambiguous. What Lingzi is looking for is different from what I’m looking for my third uncle. He… is more open and transparent.” Wu Xie thought for a moment and said, “At least Ling Xiao is much more honest than my third uncle.”

"I thought your team was full of formidable players, but it turns out you really didn't know anything. Speaking of which, you're quite bold... You just went wherever Wu Sansheng told you to go, and you dared to come even though you knew nothing." A Ning patted his shoulder and nodded, saying, "It seems Ling Xiao and the others protected you very well."

Seeing that Wu Xie's expression was a little strange, Aning truthfully said, "We just write minor characters and work for the boss." As she spoke, she introduced her team.

"We can't tell you our boss's purpose, but I can tell you our goal. Both the underwater tomb and this place are our targets for the Ghost Seal. I don't know if you've heard of it, but it's said to be able to summon the army of the underworld. We also have the layout diagram of this underground palace."

A foreigner standing nearby, whom Aning introduced as the expert in charge of the project, nodded and said, "Yes, we didn't get it, but fortunately Aning brought out something else."

"Don't say things you shouldn't say." The foreigner was immediately stopped by Aning after he finished speaking. Finally, he looked at Wuxie with a helpless expression, stomped his foot, gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, the things I worked so hard to make have been given to you for free."

The fat man saw her take out her things and came over. Ah Ning saw that there were too many people around and didn't really want to show them, but she had no choice but to take out her things.

"Don't rearrange the order of these photos." As she spoke, Aning took out some photos of murals. They did look very orderly and layered, but Wuxie was still a little disappointed because they weren't antiques.
