Chapter 602 Sand Sea 28

……

Watching his friend's dejected and distraught appearance, Xie Yuchen felt a mix of emotions.

There is no true empathy in the world, but if we really had to find the person who understands Wu Xie the most at this moment, then it would be Xie Yuchen.

Wu Xie lived a peaceful and uneventful life for twenty-five years, just like an ordinary person, and thought he would continue to live a carefree life like this for the rest of his life.

Little did he know that from the moment he was born, he had already fallen into Wu Laogou's scheme and become a pawn in the fight against the Wang family.

After Wu Laogou's death, under Wu Sansheng's guidance, he began his transformation from a pawn to a player, orchestrating the Desert Plan. However, this plan was abruptly halted by a police call from Li Chu, and he has been imprisoned ever since.

Perhaps only Xie Yuchen, who has also experienced deception and scheming, can truly understand the joys and sorrows of this journey.

In fact, Xie Yuchen's experience was even more difficult than Wu Xie's.

After Xie Lianhuan died, the second generation of the Xie family began to die one after another, resulting in a direct break in the second generation.

Ultimately, at the tender age of eight, the still naive Xie Yuchen became the young head of the Xie family, repeatedly teetering on the brink of life and death.

The vast, intertwined family, with its complex web of shady dealings, presents the young heir with not only business rivalries but also life-or-death struggles.

Even with Er Yuehong's protection, things will not be easy for them.

As it turns out, his uncle, or rather stepfather, Xie Lianhuan, did not actually die.

Instead, he faked his death under the guise of breaking free from the Wang family's control, sharing an identity with Wu Sansheng, and watched helplessly as the young boy struggled to support the vast Xie family without intervening or showing any interest.

Both of them were schemed against by their relatives from a young age, and gradually they have ended up where they are today.

Therefore, when the two met Wu Sansheng and Xie Lianhuan, they felt a strong sense of resonance.

Every moment they were used by their closest relatives, every step of their meticulous scheming, ultimately turned into an unresolved knot in their hearts, making it impossible for them to face Wu Sansheng and reconcile with Lianhuan.

To escape his two uncles, Wu Xie and Xie Yuchen, along with Fatty, Hei Xiazi, and others, plunged into the study of the ancient city of Gutongjing, working diligently day and night.

The teacher in charge of giving the group ideological education was very pleased to see this, believing that these young people had finally gotten on the right track.

However, the complexity of Gutongjing far exceeded everyone's imagination.

The archaeological team has been stationed in this desert for two whole years, but still hasn't made much progress. The site is less than halfway developed.

Unlike Wu Xie and his team, who destroyed everything in their path, the archaeological team adopted a comprehensive research strategy, leaving no detail overlooked, from the layout of the ancient city of Tongjing to the funerary objects, from the murals to the remains of plants and animals.

For example, the black-haired snake that can speak human language, and even the fact that it can store human memories, is something that everyone who knows about it can't understand.

Even after they captured the live specimens and returned them to Kyoto, experts in zoology and botany were still unable to explain the underlying principles of these phenomena.

A snake that doesn't even have a language system can actually talk.

This is both amazing and, from the bottom of one's heart, utterly illogical.

During this period, Zhang Qiling, who came out of the bronze gate of Changbai Mountain, was immediately "invited" by the authorities to a special research laboratory. After a series of secret studies, Zhang Qiling was also sent to the desert to conduct research on the ancient city of Gutongjing with Wu Xie and others.

Then, the authorities quickly assembled a new team specifically to study the secrets of the Bronze Gate.

Upon arriving at the destination, Zhang Qiling remained silent for a long time before looking at the two people standing in front of him and asking, "...What exactly have you been doing for the past ten years?"

Wu Xie and Fatty's excited expressions froze: "..."
