Reborn Hot Wife

In the afternoon, the group of teachers and students finally arrived at the site of the ancient tomb they were excavating, gasping for breath as they collapsed onto the nearby patch of grass.

The tomb had already been partially dug out, with yellow soil piled up around its perimeter. From the edge, they could see the architectural structure of the tombs that had been excavated, with several entrances and exits available.

The supervisor, Zhang Ying, crawled up from below, dusting himself off before scanning the group of newcomers. His gaze finally settled on the middle-aged man standing among them, “Good day, Professor Yan.”

Yan Jia looked well-rested and calmly removed the cloth mask from his mouth and nose, acknowledging the greeting with a polite smile, “Good day, and thank you for your hard work.”

Zhang Ying handed Yan Jia a bottle of water before turning to the group of exhausted students sitting on the ground. With a playful smile, he teased, “I’ve heard that students from Peking University are all talented, but it looks like their physical fitness is just average.”

Just as he finished speaking, a young man appeared from behind, carrying seven or eight pieces of luggage with ease. He strolled out calmly, impassive and unchanging, looking like a well-trained warrior.

Even Zhang Ying, who had experience working outdoors and was from a military background, couldn’t match the vigor of this young man. It surprised him, leaving him speechless for a moment.

Looking exhausted, Mincent noticed Zhang Ying’s surprise and laughed as if releasing pent-up frustration, “What do you think? Aren’t some of us university students capable after all?”

The other students sitting beside them all looked towards Yang Feng, who had just arrived, with worshipful eyes.

Yang Feng walked calmly over, placing his fellow students’ luggage to one side before clapping his hands, maintaining his composure as he looked towards Yan Jia and Zhang Ying.

Seeing everyone looking at him intently, Yang Feng asked in surprise, “Is there anything I can help with?”

Zhang Ying admired him and took the opportunity to give him a hearty pat on the shoulder, but Yang Feng remained statuesque and unresponsive.

Instead, it was Zhang Ying who winced and smiled, “Good job, young man. You have a great physique, even better than those of us who received professional training.”

“Thank you,” Yang Feng replied calmly, occasionally glancing past them towards Mary Kinson, who was seated in the shade of the tree, fanning herself with leaves. He wondered if she could keep up with the team physically.

Thankfully, she seemed perfectly comfortable.

“Alright, you students can rest for a bit. Later, we’ll prepare to go down the tomb together,” Zhang Ying said, patting Yan Jia’s shoulder and leading him to another location for a private conversation.

Yan Jia looked at Zhang Ying solemnly, already guessing what he was about to say. “Is it very difficult down there?”

“If it weren’t difficult, we wouldn’t have asked the students from Peking University to come. Not only is it difficult, the tomb is very complex. We’ve been working on it for a week and a half and haven’t fully grasped all its structure. Moreover, many brothers have been injured or poisoned after entering dangerous rooms. Added to that, the forest itself is already dangerous at night, so… our situation is not optimistic. Later, when you talk to your students, try to control their emotions as much as possible.”

“It’s okay. My students are mentally prepared and are all responsible people. They won’t back down because of danger,” Yan Jia said with confidence. “The most important thing now is to ensure the safety of my students after we enter the tomb.”

After that, everyone split up into teams and moved in different directions. Yang Feng followed Mary Kinson into the side passage, with Mincent following behind.

“Why did you come with us?” Yang Feng turned his head to look at him, feeling annoyed that he always seemed to be clinging to Mary Kinson.

Mincent tried to act calm and said, “Didn’t we agree to split up into teams? Why can’t I come with you…”

“I told you to stay away from Su, didn’t I?” Yang Feng glanced at him sideways, giving a slight warning.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Mincent smiled awkwardly and said, “I don’t want to be closer to Mary Kinson right now. I want to be closer to you. After all, I’ll be safer if I’m with you.”

Yang Feng: “…”

Just as Mincent finished speaking, he accidentally stepped on something and half of his leg dangled in mid-air, getting stuck in the passage. He panicked and exclaimed, “Ah! Something’s holding onto my leg!”

Yang Feng and Mary Kinson quickly turned back to see what happened, with each of them holding onto one of Mincent’s arms. “What’s wrong with you? We walked ahead and both of us were fine. How did you manage to get into trouble while following us from behind?”

With the help of the two, Mincent finally managed to climb out, still shaking with fear as he looked at the hole he had just fallen through. “I don’t know. I was just walking and suddenly fell down…”

Yang Feng was speechless.

Instead, Mary Kinson leaned forward, her beautiful fox-like eyes narrowing slightly as she stared at the hole in thought.

She turned to look at Yang Feng, her gaze shimmering. “Yang Feng, do you want to go down and take a look? I feel that there might be something else down there.”

Yang Feng looked up at her, seeing her interest piqued, and smiled. “I’ll be happy to accompany you.”

“Aren’t you afraid of dying?” Mincent grabbed onto Yang Feng’s arm in fear. “We should let the professionals come and take a look. We can stay here and wait. If there are zombies or something, we’ll all be done for if we rush in.”

Yang Feng shook off his hand disdainfully. “Have you been watching too much tomb-raiding fantasy movies? There are no zombies here. If you don’t want to go, stay here, and we’ll bring you out later.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Mary Kinson stepped deftly onto the edge of the hole, and the opening widened. She jumped straight down.

Mincent stared wide-eyed, not sure if he should be amazed at Mary Kinson’s boldness or call her crazy.

Before he could react, Yang Feng jumped in right after her. Mincent hesitated for a moment before following suit.

The area below was completely undeveloped. The air was filled with dampness and an eerie wind blew through.
