Chapter 249 - Chapter 249: Chapter 182: Master Tomb Robber in Action! (5000-Word Chapter)_3 (2/2)
But Old Yao knew that this was the only plank he could grasp in the vast ocean, and a hint of green appearing in the scorching desert.
“I’ll call Lin Chuan right away,”
Qin Sisi’s brows were knitted together, her face showing an urgent expression.
The rumble of thunder continued to sound, but at this point, there was no longer any possibility to worry about the rainy conditions—saving people was urgent.
Dudu dudu——
The call connected.
Before Lin Chuan could speak, Qin Sisi immediately said, “Writer Lin, our archaeological team is in a crisis!”
“What happened?”
On the other end of the phone, Lin Chuan had just walked out of the “Spring River Moon” restaurant and sat in the passenger seat of Shen Qianqian’s car. Hearing Qin Sisi’s urgent tone, he frowned.
Qin Sisi continued, “We’ve discovered an ancient tomb here at Dabao Mountain in Anling, and our colleague is trapped inside a maze, which might also contain mechanisms. The situation is dire, that’s why our archaeological team is asking for your help.”
Lin Chuan’s brows tightened a bit more, “Send me the exact location.”
“Okay.”
Qin Sisi felt relieved and immediately sent Lin Chuan the location information.
On the other side, Shen Qianqian’s phone also rang.
The caller ID showed: Director Zhang.
Shen Qianqian immediately pressed the answer button, nodding continuously.
“Qianqian’s archaeological team seems to have run into danger,” Shen Qianqian looked towards Lin Chuan beside her.
Lin Chuan nodded, “Yes, Sisi just called me asking to go there, to see if I can lead them out.”
“Shall I drive you there?” Shen Qianqian asked.
“Yes,” Lin Chuan nodded.
Shen Qianqian immediately drove the white SUV through the misty rain, leaving Qingxiu District, heading towards the outskirts, driving through the spacious urban roads, and entering the winding mountain roads.
The destination, Dabao Mountain.
Ling ling ling——
The phone rang again.
It was an unknown number.
Lin Chuan thought for a moment and chose to answer, “Hello, who is this?”
From the phone, a friendly yet urgent voice came through, “Lin, hello, I am Zhong Chengming from Han River Province.”
“Elder Zhong, hello.”
Lin Chuan’s eyebrows raised slightly, showing some surprise.
Previously, during a casual conversation with Zhang Biao, Zhang had mentioned Elder Zhong, so Lin Chuan was aware.
However, Lin Chuan did not know the relationship between Zhong Xunfeng and Zhong Chengming.
“The archaeologists trapped in the maze of the Nanyue Royal Family Tomb are connected with me, and I personally want to thank you for your willingness to go to Dabao Mountain for the rescue,” Zhong Chengming’s tone over the phone was serious and sincere.
“Elder Zhong, I will do my best,” Lin Chuan said with some realization.
“Lin, I also hope you will proceed with your capabilities in mind. You are Han River’s talent, and I wouldn’t want you to get yourself into a dire situation. That’s not what I want to see,” Zhong Chengming added.
Zhong Chengming gave Lin Chuan the impression of an elder caring for a junior, friendly and kind.
His tone sounded as if he had known Lin Chuan for a long time.
“Rest assured, Elder Zhong.”
Lin Chuan sensed Elder Zhong’s concern, and his heart stirred slightly.
“Be careful driving in the rain,” Zhong Chengming advised, “And once you’re in the Nanyue Royal Family Tomb, be even more cautious. Safety comes first.”
