Then they transferred to a car.
We traveled for several days and nights on rugged mountain roads.
The view outside the window gradually changed from a bustling city to a vast snow-capped mountain, and the temperature dropped sharply.
Finally, they reached the foot of the Kunlun Mountains glacier.
The scenery here is spectacular and mysterious.
The massive glacier shimmered brilliantly under the sunlight.
They resembled rows of silver castles.
The archaeological team located the local military base and requested assistance.
The military dispatched three soldiers to protect their safety and act as guides.
One of the soldiers was a tall, burly man with a resolute face, giving off a very reliable feeling.
The other two, however, seemed somewhat different.
One was a timid, submissive middle-aged man.
He was shy and introverted, seemingly with social anxiety, always keeping his head down and avoiding eye contact.
The other one was incredibly young, looking only about twenty years old.
But she has delicate, fair skin and speaks in a effeminate manner, which makes people want to laugh.
During the break, Shirley Yang noticed that Lin Yang kept watching the two people.
She whispered, "Boss, have you discovered something?"
Lin Yang whispered to Shirley Yang beside him, "Take a look at those two."
"They are clearly not ordinary people."
Shirley Yang nodded: "Yes, they certainly don't seem like ordinary soldiers."
The two had just finished speaking.
The young man walked over, looking very friendly.
"Hey, Yang, what are you two whispering about? Let me hear it."
Lin Yang felt goosebumps rise on his skin.
Too lazy to waste words, he directly revealed the other party's identity:
"Wang Zhenqiu, a temporary worker in the Southwest District of Nadutong."
He had already recognized Wang Zhenqiu's identity when he first met him.
"You know my identity?? It seems you're also an extraordinary person."
Wang Zhenqiu paused for a moment, then laughed dismissively.
"That's good, it makes communication easier for everyone."
"You can call me Qiu'er. I love making friends."
Shirley Yang had, of course, heard of the mysterious organization "All-Knowing".
She raised an eyebrow slightly, her tone revealing a hint of wariness:
What are you doing following us? What is your purpose?
Wang Zhenqiu's lips curled up, showing that he didn't care about Shirley Yang's question at all:
"It's nothing. We just heard that an archaeological team is going to the Kunlun Glacier for archaeological work."
"So they sent me over to take a look."
"As you all know, the Kunlun Glacier is no ordinary place."
"It would be bad if someone caused trouble."
Lin Yang sneered:
"So, you're here to spy on the archaeological team?"
"Oh dear, you can't say that."
Wang Zhenqiu waved his hand, a smile still on his face.
"It's mainly for the safety of the archaeological team, you know what I mean."
"Look, now your identities have been exposed."
"We're practically family now."
"At worst, I'll treat you to a massage sometime, it's on me."
Upon hearing the words "massage," Fatty Wang immediately perked up.
He leaned closer, his face full of curiosity, and asked:
You mean a massage?
"I love massages the most,"
Wang Zhenqiu's eyes lit up as soon as he found a common topic:
"Oh! So we're kindred spirits."
"Let me tell you, my love massage is absolutely amazing."
"Let's exchange ideas sometime."
The two seemed to be having a lively conversation.
Hu Bayi couldn't help but whisper to Lin Yang, "Boss, should we... deal with this guy?"
Lin Yang waved his hand slightly, signaling Hu Bayi to calm down:
"No need, since free labor is being offered to us."
"Why wouldn't we be happy to let him come along?"
As he spoke, he specifically glanced at the taciturn middle-aged man not far away:
"Now that the temporary workers from the Southwest District have all come out, there's no need for you to hide anymore, right?"
The middle-aged man felt Lin Yang's gaze and scratched the back of his head with a somewhat sheepish expression.
"I...I didn't mean to hide it."
"I... I just don't know how to say it."
"Haha, so there are colleagues here too."
Wang Zhenqiu also noticed the middle-aged man.
He walked over excitedly:
"I'm from the Southwest District, which district are you from?"
Old Meng spoke with a sense of social anxiety:
"Um, I'm from the Northwest District, a temporary worker under Mr. Hua."
"You, you can just call me Lao Meng."
He stuttered as soon as he spoke, and his face turned bright red.
It was as if he had used up all his strength to say those words.
Looking at Lao Meng's appearance, Wang Zhenqiu stroked his chin in confusion:
"Huh? How come you're from the Northwest and you've come to my Southwest? Isn't that crossing the line?"
Upon hearing this, Lao Meng gave an awkward laugh:
"Well, I was originally waiting in Xinjiang."
"Yes, but I received the notification halfway there."
"They said they changed their route, so they came over."
Wang Zhenqiu smiled upon hearing this:
"Haha, I get it now. So you're just like me, sent here to do hard labor."
As he spoke, he patted Lao Meng on the shoulder, looking as if they were in the same boat.
Old Meng smiled and said, "Yes, yes, we just do what we're told."
Lin Yang walked over at this moment and looked at the two people in front of him:
"Now that your identities have been exposed."
"Then I'll tell you now."
He paused:
"I don't care what your superiors told you to do here."
"But remember, in the archaeological team, you have to listen to me."
Wang Zhenqiu chuckled upon hearing this:
"Brother Yang, whatever you say goes, everyone will listen to you."
He blinked as he spoke.
Old Meng nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, I have no objection either."
Lin Yang gave the two of them a deep look: "That's for the best."
After he finished speaking, he turned and walked towards Professor Chen and the others:
"We've rested enough, let's continue our journey."
Seeing this, Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang quickly followed.
"Old Meng, did you sense a murderous aura just now?"
Wang Zhenqiu leaned closer to Lao Meng and asked mysteriously.
