Chapter 781 Adventure
Chao Bufan knew perfectly well that it was impossible to shake off these guys, so he simply said bluntly, "Fine! If you insist on saying you're going on an adventure, then so be it!"
Now, Wang Dakeng and his three companions became even more excited, bombarding Chao Bufan with their opinions.
"You brat, we considered you a brother who'd go through thick and thin with us, and you actually want to hoard this good thing all by yourself..."
"That's so unfair..."
"It's not just being unfriendly, it's downright inhumane! He went on an adventure alone without inviting us. We have to cut ties with this kind of person, absolutely cut ties, unless..."
"Unless you take us with you, otherwise, hehehehehe..."
……
Chao Bufan, his head drenched in sweat, said, "The reason I didn't invite you is twofold: firstly, it's a personal matter; secondly, the dangers involved are unpredictable, and I was worried about you..."
"Shut up, you have no right to speak now."
Extraordinary: "...!"
“Brothers, you all have families, but I’m different. I’m all alone, with no ties. Count me in for this adventure.” Wang Zi seemed particularly excited.
“So what if he has a family? I talked to my wife on the phone, and she agreed without saying a word.” Wang Dakeng said smugly.
"Yang Qin is pregnant now, and she's gone back to her parents' home to rest, so I'm basically single now, with no ties. I'll be part of this adventure too, Dawei, you seem to..."
"Hey, you know what, I already gave up the chairmanship of TWW Group to my cousin a long time ago. To be precise, I'm single now."
"No way! What about your wife?"
"What do you mean, what to do? Just like Yang Qin, she went back to her parents' home to rest during her pregnancy."
"Can I speak now?" Chao Bufan smiled as he watched them direct this entertainment show, finally getting a chance to speak.
Wang Dakeng glanced at him: "No."
Chao Bufan nodded and smiled, "Alright, you guys continue with your own performance, I'll take my leave first."
"Wait!" Wang Dakeng said hurriedly, "You're too dishonest, Dawei. We'll ride in his car. Wang Zi, you and Weihua follow behind."
"OK." The others readily agreed.
Chao Bufan shook his head and smiled, there was really nothing he could do about them.
……
In the car, Wang Dakeng, sitting in the passenger seat, asked, "Bufan, where should we go first?"
With a beaming smile, Chao Bufan retorted, "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
"Nonsense, of course it's the truth."
"The truth is, we're going to see someone now."
"Meet someone? Who?"
"The one you all know is my cousin, Fengling."
"and then?"
"Then, we'll talk when we meet. David, let me ask you, did you tamper with my car?"
"What do you mean by tampering with it?"
"Don't play dumb with me, kid. Although Wang Zi is more talented than you when it comes to modifying cars, he doesn't have the guts."
"That doesn't necessarily mean it's me! Why don't you suspect Wei Hua or Da Keng?"
"Hey, hey, hey, Dawei, don't drag me into this, okay?"
“You’re not out of the woods either, Da Keng. Don’t think I don’t know. You’re the mastermind, and this kid is an accomplice.”
"Okay! I admit it was my idea. Who told you to always run away? If we didn't do this, wouldn't we miss out on this adventure? David, am I right?"
"That's what happened."
……
The elegant young master of the Feng family, Feng Ling, sat in his old family villa, drinking tea and looking exceptionally relaxed.
"Ding-dong... ding-dong ding-dong..." The doorbell rang outside—
Feng Ling quickly put down his teacup and got up to open the door.
"Cousin, you're two whole hours late!" Feng Ling said with a smile when he saw Chao Bufan.
"Something came up on the way and I was delayed..."
As Chao Bufan was speaking, Wang Dakeng and his three companions suddenly appeared from behind him: "Hey! Brothers, long time no see!"
Feng Ling was taken aback for a moment upon seeing them, then smiled and said, "Long time no see, what brings you all here?"
Wang Dakeng laughed and said, "I was bored at home, so I came out for some fresh air."
"Come in, all of you!" Feng Ling should have guessed that these people would come along, but to be honest, he admired these extraordinary companions from the bottom of his heart.
After sitting down, Chao Bufan got straight to the point and asked, "Fengling, did you bring your grandfather's diary?"
Feng Ling didn't rush to answer. Instead, he took out a notebook that was already yolky from the drawer of the coffee table: "Then, would you like to take a look?"
"No need to look, just tell me what's written inside!"
At this moment, Wang Dakeng and his three companions inexplicably fell silent, because they all knew that what Chao Bufan and Feng Ling were about to discuss would definitely be related to their upcoming adventure. And sure enough…
"Cousin, are you really planning to do this?" Feng Ling asked uncertainly.
Chao Bufan nodded and said "Mm".
Feng Ling nodded and said, "This notebook records my grandfather's archaeological experiences and insights over the decades of his life, including all the places he visited."
"The place I want to go to should be documented, right?"
“It’s recorded here that there’s only one entrance to that place, and it’s very well hidden and few people know about it. Back then, my grandfather and his archaeological team discovered this entrance and sent two people in to check it out. However, they didn’t come out within the allotted time, so they sent in several more people, but none of them came out either. My grandfather was the last one to go in, but he didn’t go very far before he came out because he saw something that he would never forget in his life.”
"Do you know what it is?"
“I don’t know. My grandfather never mentioned it, but what is certain is that of the dozen or so people in the archaeological team, everyone except my grandfather perished. Later, my grandfather sealed off the entrance, and not long after, he passed away for some reason. This diary was left behind by my grandfather before he died. I remember my grandfather once told my father that no one, including my father, was allowed to read this diary.”
"Is the exact location of this entrance mentioned above?"
“Yes, Grandpa drew a map on it, and the exact location of the entrance is marked on this map. Cousin, personally, I really don't think you need to take this risk. It's extremely dangerous inside. So many people went in back then and never came out. I think…”
"Fengling, I understand what you mean. No matter what, I still have to go in and take a look."
"Cousin, can you tell me why?"
"I can't explain it clearly right now, but that place appeared in my dream. How about this, you tell me the exact location of the entrance, and I'll go there myself."
