Chapter 214: The jinx is outrageous.
Wu Zhao spoke casually as she walked over to Gu Chen's side.
Gu Chen then handed her his phone.
The picture on the phone is not very clear; it's obvious the photographer took it in a hurry.
“This is…?” Wu Zhao frowned, looking at the somewhat familiar pattern.
Although the totem was somewhat blurry, Wu Zhao could still vaguely see that it belonged to the Wu family.
But this doesn't resemble a Wu family formation; it's more like...
"seal?"
Wu Zhao muttered to himself.
I feel like I've seen it somewhere before, but I can't quite place it.
She frowned, trying hard to remember where she had seen this thing before.
Seeing that she was deep in thought, Gu Chen silently walked over and poured her a glass of water.
After pulling her to sit down, Gu Chen placed a water glass in front of her.
"Don't rush, Zhao Zhao, just think about it slowly."
He lowered his eyelids, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Wu Zhao wasn't in a hurry, but the things she couldn't remember made her feel uneasy.
As she looked at the photo, her eyes gradually became hazy.
Gu Chen knew she was starting to space out, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.
the other side.
The bus drove smoothly on the highway.
For Wu Xingyun, who was taking a ride for the first time, this was still a very novel experience.
He couldn't help but peer out the window at the scenery rushing by.
Wei Wenxue noticed his excitement from the upper bunk and couldn't help but become curious about him.
Seeing that his junior brother and teacher were both wearing eye masks and resting, he couldn't help but lower his voice and ask.
"Is this Mr. Wu's first time riding a bus?"
Wu Xingyun nodded somewhat embarrassedly when he heard his question.
"It was definitely my first time, and it was a really good experience."
Aside from the fact that his first boat ride with his ancestor made him nauseous, Wu Xingyun didn't have much of a reaction to other modes of transportation.
Wei Wenxue initially thought he was Huo Weiwei's bodyguard, but seeing his appearance, he became somewhat uncertain.
"Isn't Mr. Wu Huo Junior Sister's bodyguard? How could he be?"
After asking, she felt that it might have been a bit rude, so she apologized and added, "I'm sorry, I get carsick just like the teacher. I feel a bit uncomfortable if I don't distract myself after getting on the bus. I was just asking casually."
Knowing that he meant no harm, Wu Xingyun didn't care much.
He chuckled a few times before saying, "Actually, I was sent by my family to keep an eye on Huo Weiwei; I'd say I'm part-time bodyguard."
"But don't worry, I can protect you if there is any danger."
He spoke with conviction, and couldn't help but touch his chest.
Phoenix, who was sleeping soundly in the pocket, was suddenly pinched and instinctively pecked.
Wu Xingyun hissed as the fabric was bitten.
Wei Wenxue smiled and said, "Actually, the place we went to this time was just a bit remote, but safety can still be guaranteed."
"Although the roads there are difficult to travel, there is signal and other things available. If there is any accident, we can call the police immediately."
He knew that Huo Weiwei came from the Huo family, so it was normal for her family to worry about her safety.
Wu Xingyun became curious, since Professor Wu hadn't been able to explain in detail earlier.
He felt embarrassed to keep asking this elderly person who was prone to motion sickness.
How did you discover this place?
Wei Wenxue couldn't help but smile when he thought of his teacher's surprised expression.
"This is all thanks to our teacher," Wei Wenxue explained in a low voice. "Back then, the teacher took a few students to the antique town for an inspection, and unexpectedly, they received a counterfeit item by sheer luck."
"The fake had this design on it, so the teacher went to find the seller. Who knew that the seller said that he had drawn it on a piece of junk he saw at home."
At this point, Wei Wenxue also found it unbelievable, "That piece of junk was actually just a broken stone slab, which the vendor used as a well cover."
"The teacher was overjoyed when she saw the pattern, and after asking her carefully, she learned that the seller had brought it from his hometown."
Wu Xingyun nodded: "So our hometown is where we're going?"
"Yes, that's right there."
Wei Wenxue said, "It was a lucky accident. The teacher gave the seller some money. The seller was very generous and agreed to take us into the village for an inspection."
What a coincidence!
Wu Xingyun felt increasingly uneasy as he listened, but his expression remained unchanged.
After chatting with Wei Wenxue for a few more minutes, I noticed that he looked tired.
"Brother Wei, you should rest for a while too."
"Let's talk again after we've rested."
Wei Wenxue smiled apologetically and put on his eye mask to rest.
Pressing his hand against his chest, Wu Xingyun sighed with some unease.
"I hope it's just my imagination..."
