For this unilateral competition, Bai also knows it from the heart.

However, as a person who is slow to receive pink bubbles, Bai Yicong is only a little girl who is expressive, and he is too strong to win, so he will focus on these details.

As if seeing He Manzhou's frustration, Boss Bai fell down with interest: "Is there a difference, do you want to talk about architectural style or murals?"

He Manzhou was speechless for a while when asked, and he had to pinch the corners of his mouth a little helplessly, and even the dimples were full of bitterness.

At this time, her mood is very complicated, when it comes to psychological experience, it is almost two difficult brothers to complain together, this exam is unprepared, why is the question so difficult, three short and one long is the longest, three long and one short is the shortest, it doesn't work, there are so many empty ones that I want to die.

But when it was time to issue the scores, the difficult brother was surprised to find that he had passed, and the blind cat met the dead mouse and answered the last super difficult question correctly. So Brother Nan happily went to find Brother Nan, planning to talk to others, and take out a kind way to answer questions.

But he went out merrily, and came back crying.

There is no other reason, Brother Nan is clearly a scholar, and everyone has answered the full score test papers.

Fortunately, the "difficult brother" He Manzhou's mental quality is quite good, so he held it for a few seconds, and finally regained his composure. Then she raised her hand and pushed the information on the table to Bai Yicong's face.

"Well, the information is here, you can take a look first. ”

While Bai Yicong was flipping through the materials, Miss He said in her heart that she had done her work, and the information had been sorted out, and even the psychological construction of the knife to show her hand in front of Bai Yicong had been done. Everything is ready only to owe the east wind, although the east wind that is owed has taken a sharp turn, and directly turned into the north wind and blew over, blowing her through the cold, and waking up from her dream.

But uphold the attitude of not taking advantage of nothing, even if it is verbally cheap, you have to take advantage of it.

He Manzhou's beautiful big eyes were bent, and the small dimples next to his cheeks were indescribably vivid, and he immediately added.

"You see, the information we even checked is so similar, is this considered fate?"

Bai Yicong raised his eyebrows, and really didn't figure out where the logical order was.

"Where's the fate?"

""Nanshan Returns to the Clouds" and "Ancient Pictures of Shantao", among which there are so many good mountains and rivers, mountains and clouds, temples and forests, we can actually find the same flaw, isn't this fate. ”

He Manzhou's face did not change, and he didn't care whether what he said was really reasonable, so he began to follow Bai Yicong seriously, and put gold on his face to reflect his value from all angles.

"So, it's good to act separately, not only can we improve our work efficiency, once we find out something, it's still double insurance, and even the verification step is saved, it's basically ironclad, don't you say?"

"That only shows that your professional knowledge is passable. Bai Yicong said lightly, "You are He Sheng's daughter, and you are a student of the painting department of the Z country, you should have good eyesight, if you don't even have this ability, how can you manage the Tianwentang Museum?"

"That's true, but it's still very efficient to find your way so quickly. ”

"Or will it be delayed for half a year?"

"Hey, you're a man...... Will you be able to chat, the sky is about to let you talk to death, okay," He Manzhou was really angry with Bai Yicong's uprightness, and couldn't help muttering in a low voice, "And Ah Bai Yicong, I ask you seriously, is it possible that I owe you money, every time you are so bitter and hateful to me, can you not scold me and praise me for dying?"

"Oh......" Bai Yicong glanced at He Manzhou meaningfully, "So you want me to praise you?"

"What......"

It's one thing to think in your heart, it's another thing to really say it. He Manzhou also wondered why Bai Yicong didn't usually look like a person who could observe words and feelings, but every time he came to such a time, he was precise in his words, and his casual words could make others shy for a long time, as if he was deliberately manipulating her.

So much so that He Manzhou held the rim of the cup with his fingers, took a sip of orange juice, and then pretended to say it casually.

"I'm here, I'm here to find out the results as soon as possible...... Don't think so narrowly, okay?"

Seeing that the girl's tongue was about to be knotted, Bai Yi never stopped talking, but confirmed his thoughts.

"So you came here in the middle of the night to ask me for credit?"

He Manzhou: "......."

Come on, I can't take that.

But I can't stand it in the world of straight men, everything is so straight.

Boss Bai not only went straight to the point, but also knew that he could change his mistakes and was particularly persuasive, and he just learned the new vocabulary a few days ago, and now he opened his mouth to come.

"Good, well done, boat. ”

He Manzhou was stunned when he heard it, and at this time he knew that it was called an intimate title?

When she said not to call He Manzhou by name and surname, and not to call Miss He seriously, she didn't expect that one day Bai Yicong would talk to herself in this "good boy, do a good job" tone...... That's weird, isn't it?

And Bai Yi's eyebrows sank, and he continued to mend the knife unhurriedly.

"Would you be happy if you complimented you like that?"

He Manzhou: "......."

Please, I'd rather shut up.

If it weren't for knowing that Bai Yi had never been so boring, He Manzhou would have almost wondered if this person was deliberately tricking, how could he come here, and deliberately wanted to see her shy.

Fortunately, Bai Yicong is well aware of the truth that you can't push people too hard.

After teasing He Manzhou for a few words, looking at the tips of the girl's red and hot ears, a certain white boss who looked like an iceberg and a devil in his heart finally shut up, and he put the sorted information and a map of Wucheng in front of her.

The pure white paper depicts the corners of the pavilion, the blue bricks and tiles match the outline of the dome, and the mural painted inside shows a woman in a white veil slowly opening her eyes, with a sense of fatalism in the blur and haze.

"At the top of the "Nanshan Returning to the Clouds", there is a pavilion that is exactly the same as the "Ancient Map of the Mountains and Waves", if I guess correctly, this is the coordinate we are looking for. ”

"Bai Yicong, you may not believe it, the woman in the mural is the person in my dream. I can't explain why I remember her appearance. However, all this is too real, especially the disaster she brought in the end...... I always feel that there is a bad hint, if she is the goddess recorded in my father's codex, then this so-called "goddess's suit" must be the crux of everything, and there is a deep conspiracy behind it, we two must be careful. ”

"I know," Bai Yicong replied lightly, "I told you that your father and I had an accident in the cave, and now I can tell you more details—the scene painted in the mural of "The Returning Clouds of the Southern Mountains" is the scene that He Sheng and I saw back then. ”

"So you think the desert I dreamed of is connected to the cave you encountered, right?"

"It's related, but it's more than that. Bai Yicong's eyebrows sank slightly, and he turned his head sideways to look at He Manzhou, "Do you remember how your father's notes recorded the goddess's battle suit?"

Of course, He Manzhou remembered that after discovering the codex, she flipped through the pages and read them over and over again I don't know how many times, and she couldn't figure out the evidence from He Sheng's obscure words, but she almost didn't memorize all the contents.

She remembered that Lao He said that the goddess's suit was a bad omen, a devil who crawled out of hell and would completely devour the current civilization.

This is demagogic hypnosis, a fate that has to be surrendered.

In the end, He Sheng said that until now, there is no way for us to turn back.

Those lineages are destined to awaken, and all you can do is submit to the gods and give your soul and life.

The goddess came into the world, which is a curse in itself.

......

But why is such a strange and terrible thing being turned out by the world?

"There are a couple of doubts. ”

Before He Manzhou could come up with a reason, Bai Yicong's words hooked her thoughts.

Bai Yicong curled his fingers slightly, lightly clasped them on the table, and continued unhurriedly.

"For one, your father's codex doesn't mention that the cave was our next trip, so it's not hard to guess what we were going through at the time, based on what really happened. When we felt that everything was wrong, instead of terminating the operation, He Sheng and I chose to continue the investigation - it just came down to the fate of having to succumb, isn't it too general?"

"yes, that's something I don't understand. He Manzhou didn't think about it, so he quickly nodded, "I know too well what kind of character my dad is, he will never give up his principles because of immediate interests, even if he is promised great benefits, it is not as important as those principles and bottom lines." ”

He Manzhou didn't say the words thoroughly, in fact, she always had a question mark in her heart about why He Sheng agreed to join forces with Bai Yicong, and even left behind the expedition team she had known for many years.

"Don't you think it's strange that your father agreed to work with me?"

Just when He Manzhou was silent, Bai Yicong opened his mouth lightly.

He seemed to be able to read minds, his cold eyes glanced at He Manzhou's cheeks, saw everything she thought in her heart thoroughly, and found those doubts and confusions from the details, and then gave the answer slowly and methodically.

"Because, the secret behind the treasure of the relict king. ”

"What?" He Manzhou couldn't help but hear it, and asked directly, "So can you stop selling it to me, what is the treasure of the relict king, what did you want to do when you dragged my father to hunt for treasure?"

"Have you ever heard of the Loulan female corpse?"

In 1980, Mu Shunying excavated a female corpse, which was originally called "Loulan Beauty". As a child of a historical family, it is impossible that He Manzhou has not heard of this sensational news, when Lao He also joined the research group of Z University and specialized in studying this case.

This is the earliest ancient corpse unearthed in Xinjiang so far, with a history of about 3,800 years, but it is exceptionally well preserved, bringing people countless reveries.

"From Lop Nur to Loulan, this mysterious and terrifying area itself hides mysteries, and many records are missing, including how the ancient kingdom of Loulan perished is also undocumented. The fact that a country is completely hidden in the storm and yellow sand is an incredible thing in itself, and it makes people want to dig deeper into the reasons behind it, doesn't it?"

"You mean ......"

He Manzhou began to feel that everything had become a little mysterious, and Bai Yicong said this, it was impossible for her not to hear the subtext in it, and she also knew the stakes.

Sure enough, Bai Yicong quickly continued.

"The reason why I found your father is because someone found him first, and the treasure of the relict king is not the so-called treasure gold at all, but hides the secret of the fall of Loulan. Of course, since we're allies now and should share resources, I can make it a little clearer—"

Speaking of this, Bai Yicong's tone paused slightly, and his ink-colored eyes sank completely.

"Behind the treasure of the relict king is eternal life. ”
