Bai Chuwei was truly detestable, but the words she said were genuine.
Xu Xingchen’s mind raced, instantly recalling her question about whether they wanted to survive past the Spring Festival.
He felt like crying. Bai Chuwei was indeed a disaster, nothing good ever happened when she was around!
He hadn’t officially entered the Cultivation World, nor had he reclaimed the Duan Family that rightfully belonged to him, and he certainly didn’t want to die here as a sacrificial burial.
Xu Xingchen looked down at the white pill wrapped in tissue paper in his palm, licking his lips with some hesitation.
This was distributed by Bai Chuwei...
He had no idea if she had added something else to the pill to trick him.
Senior Zhou Nan, seeing his expression, laughed and asked, "Is this your first time participating in archaeological work? Don’t be nervous. Archaeology isn’t like what you see in tomb-robbing TV shows; you won’t encounter that many strange things."
Xu Xingchen’s voice trembled as he spoke, "Senior, I... I, I want to exchange pills with you."
"What? Pills? Are you talking about the one that Bai Chuwei gave us earlier?" Zhou Nan suddenly realized, searched himself, and pulled it out from his back pocket, looking somewhat embarrassed, "The only place I have to carry things on me is my pants pockets, are you sure you want to exchange with me?"
Zhou Nan didn’t quite understand Xu Xingchen’s actions. Does he still want to eat candy at this time?
Xu Xingchen, with a straight face, swiftly exchanged their pills and swallowed Zhou Nan’s, closing his eyes. He felt that the pill had an indescribable scent.
After swallowing, he felt normal, without any abnormalities, as if he had just eaten a piece of candy.
Zhou Nan shook his head with a smile, also treated the pill like candy and popped it into his mouth; surprisingly, it had a sweet taste.
Xu Xingchen saw that Zhou Nan was fine after eating his pill and suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.
He had thought... that Bai Chuwei had added something to the pill she gave him...
Just at that moment, Zhou Nan suddenly raised his hand to touch his nose and frowned at Xu Xingchen, "Do you smell a fragrance?"
Xu Xingchen’s skin crawled and he paled, "I... I smell it."
Professor Ge, walking in front, lit up with excitement, "The presence of this exotic fragrance in the tomb suggests it’s of high status. Some princes and kings used coffins that emitted a fragrant smell. I have experience with this, don’t worry..."
Before he could finish the word "worry," Professor Ge’s voice abruptly stopped.
All the people behind him, including the dozen or so assistants, were stunned on the spot.
There was Professor Ge in front, suddenly dancing and waving his arms, turning around to smile and shout at them, "Come on, Xiaoliu, let’s dance!"
Professor Ge was known as a dance king in his younger years, his dance moves could still put many young people to shame today.
The sight made several female students want to applaud Professor Ge.
Professor, you’re an amazing dancer!
But could you please pay attention to the situation, and wake up?!!
Is archaeology less important than dancing?
"If it’s dancing, let’s dance, I was once called the Dancing Queen!" The old lady snorted, dropped her flashlight, and joined Professor Ge in a dance battle right there on the spot.
Then, one by one, others joined the makeshift dance floor.
The scene was more joyful than a nightclub party, only lacking the explosive music.
Professor Ge muttered, "I won’t dance here anymore, I’ll go dance somewhere else."
Zhou Nan was dumbfounded. Could this situation be normal?
Zhou Nan shouted into the walkie-talkie, "We need staff down here, something’s gone wrong!"
Seeing his dear teacher not knowing where to run, Zhou Nan dashed forward and after a few seconds of hesitation, slapped Professor Ge’s face hard and urgently said, "Teacher, wake up! Stop dancing! If you want to dance, go up and do it."
What the hell was going on? Such a harsh slap, and still no reaction?
A leisurely, laughing voice came over the walkie-talkie, "Was my medicine given to you as a decoration, kiddo?"
Zhou Nan was stunned for a moment, then his pupils shrank sharply, suddenly remembering—
Only he and Xu Xingchen were not dancing at the scene; both had just eaten the medicine Bai Chuwei gave them as if it were candy!
The voice on the walkie-talkie was... Bai Chuwei’s! The source of thɪs content is novelꞁire.net
