Chapter 3647 Substitution
The veteran expert's roundabout words made me very impatient, so I said bluntly: "If you have anything to say, please say it directly."
This may be the first time someone has treated him so rudely. The old expert looked hesitant, but he didn't want to get angry. After a few seconds of silence, he coughed lightly and said, "That's it. I took the liberty of disturbing you last night. I hope you will." Please forgive me, sir."
"It doesn't matter." I waved my hand and said, "She also has a loyal and filial heart, which is understandable."
"Ahem!" The old expert coughed twice after hearing this. While covering up his embarrassment, he also gathered up enough courage for himself and said, "I wonder what adults think of my little girl?"
"How do you view it?" I thought for a moment and said, "See it with your eyes and treat it as an equal."
"Maybe I didn't explain it clearly." The old expert laughed awkwardly and said, "What I mean is, I wonder if my little girl is qualified to serve the adults?"
"So that's what it means." I nodded and said, "I remember I made it very clear yesterday, there is no such possibility."
Seeing that the old expert wanted to speak again, I waved my hand and said: "It's not that your daughter is not good enough, but the objective reality. First of all, I already have many fiancées, and each fiancée has its own extraordinary qualities. I admit that your daughter is She is extremely talented in archeology, or in other words, she is a shining star in the archeology industry. But the problem is, I am not interested in archeology. Let you know that the reason why I excavated the tomb is not because I am interested in archeology. Whatever interests you, what I value more is the treasure inside.”
"You can say that I am short-sighted and only interested in the treasures in front of me, but I ignore the value of archaeological research in the tomb. But for me, the value of archaeological research is really far less than the treasures inside."
"So" I took a deep breath and said quietly: "It is impossible for your daughter and I to be together, because we are not the same type of people at all."
After listening to my explanation, the old expert's expression looked a little disappointed.
It’s no wonder that a young man who looks clearly human not only holds a high status in Fort Vic, but also holds the distribution map of the tombs of the monarchs of the Peruvian Empire. Especially the latter, it has a great influence on the entire archeology. It is of great significance to the world. If the old expert can obtain this tomb distribution map before the tomb is robbed, his identity and status will be further improved, and he will even be qualified to reach the top of the archaeological world, and rule the entire archaeological world from now on.
I can guess what the veteran expert is thinking, and at the same time I understand his thoughts.
But understanding is understanding does not mean that you can agree to anything without a bottom line.
"This matter has been decided," I said to the old expert: "If you have other matters, we can still talk about it."
"No." The old expert tried his best to smile and said, "No more."
"Then" I nodded and said, "I'll rest first, you can do whatever you want."
After that, he folded his hands, put his pillow behind his head, leaned on the sofa, and fell asleep.
When I woke up, I had arrived at my destination, but the airship did not open the hatch and everyone remained on the airship.
It wasn't until he saw me waking up that the dwarf adventurer leader sent a message, opened the airship door, and everyone got off the airship and waited.
After washing up for a while, I got off the airship and saw everyone waiting in the open space of the airship base, so I waved my hands and said, "Let's go to His Majesty's place together."
A large group of people arrived at the palace. After passing the inspection by the guards, they entered the palace.
Simmons Locke is looking forward to returning from this grave excavation. He has long heard that this excavation has been fruitful, especially the enchanted weapons and mithril, which is an eye-opener for him.
Speaking of which, digging graves is not an illegal activity in York and Han City. It is also a regular profession. Even successive monarchs of the Simons family have ennobled certain tomb robbers. This is not the case in other places. From the country's perspective, this is simply a deviant move.
In particular, countries like Airui City that like to have thick burials have questioned the policy of York and Han City as an ally: Aren't you afraid that your graves will be dug up in the future?
However, the Simmons family remained unmoved by such questioning.
On the one hand, it is no secret that the tomb of the Simmons family is built under the palace. If you want to dig the tomb, you must first dig a tunnel connecting the palace with the outside world. But the problem is, the strong man who sits in the palace How can they allow someone to dig up the tombs of their masters’ ancestors under their noses?
If they don't beat the gravedigger's brains out, they are being merciful.
On the other hand, the Simons family does not practice grand burials. Almost every monarch will be buried in a coffin after death. Before entering the museum, their favorite things during their lifetime will be tidied and placed into the coffin, and then The coffin was delivered to the mausoleum underground of the palace.
Although the construction of the York-Hancheng Underground Mausoleum is spectacular and gorgeous, it is not extravagant. Everything is only focused on the two aspects of majesty and durability. It can be said that if you want to enter the underground mausoleum through the outer wall by digging holes, This is not an easy task. Not only must you be at least level 10, but you must also have a shovel with a hardness comparable to mithril. Otherwise, even a master with great hole-stealing skills will still be unable to succeed.
Then comes the key part of the problem - after a lot of hard work and many hardships, we finally dug out the tunnel to reach the underground mausoleum in York and Han City, and successfully entered the mausoleum. Then we will find that in the huge underground mausoleum, except for each one Apart from the stacked coffins, there are no gold, silver, jewelry, or jade carvings.
Even if they have the ability to open the coffin, they will find that there is not even a single valuable thing in the coffin. At most, there is a small, worthless thing in each coffin, next to the bones.
This is the true appearance of the underground mausoleum of York and Seoul.
I think that no matter how strong a tomb robber is in his heart, after suffering such an encounter, he will either become disheartened and never become a tomb robber again, or he will fall into complete loss and doubt his life.
Of course, all this is just my personal conjecture, because so far, there is no precedent of a tomb robber having the ability to open the outermost wall of the mausoleum.
You can't even open the wall, and you're still talking about tomb robbing!
Simmons Locke first verbally praised everyone, and then dispersed them, leaving only me.
"I heard that this excavation did not go well?" He poured me a cup of tea and asked.
"The process went quite smoothly, but the leader of the archaeological expert team, the old expert, was very stubborn and had a dispute with me during the process."
"His family has been responsible for the archaeological work in York and Seoul for generations. He rarely interacts with others. It is normal for him not to know how to adapt."
"I don't object to what you say," I said, "but I just feel uncomfortable, so I won't let the old expert continue to follow the team, and let his daughter follow the team. I believe that in terms of obeying and executing orders, he will be better. She’s better at it than the old pros.”
