The Ghost Eye Curse

Hu Ming and Hu Bayi exchanged a look, seeing success in each other's eyes. www.

"Professor Chen, you flatter me. It is my honor to help the country," Hu Bayi said sincerely.

Hu Ming remained silent, but if he were to speak, it would be: Professor Chen, thank you for the opportunity to accompany you. I'll grab more treasures. If you collect them all in the museum, where will I find them?

Professor Chen, you think you're so reputable, but you never expected to become accomplices to tomb raiders this time. But it's fine, you're also grave robbers.

We're all in the same boat! Hu Ming laughed inwardly. This was getting more and more interesting.

"Mr. Hu Ming, Mr. Hu, with the assistance of you two gentlemen, I am confident we will succeed in our journey to Jingjue Ancient City."

A hint of joy flickered across Yang Xueli's pretty face. She was genuinely happy, having unexpectedly recruited two individuals who were masters of feng shui for this trip to Jingjue Ancient City.

I must find a way to win these two over and get their help to find the treasure that can break the curse. Yang Xueli thought, her beautiful eyes lingering on Hu Ming and Hu Bayi. These two possessed rare talents, a godsend.

She was a meticulous, quick-witted, decisive, and strategic woman of influence.

Yang Xueli extended her fair, jade-like hand towards Hu Bayi. "Mr. Hu, welcome to our archaeological team. You are now officially one of our members. With your experience as a company commander, you are suitable to be our team leader. I've decided on a reward of fifty thousand US dollars, with double that amount once we find Jingjue Ancient City."

She offered fifty thousand US dollars to win over Hu Bayi.

She then turned her head to Hu Ming. "Of course, Mr. Hu Ming's hundred thousand US dollars is because he knows some secrets about Jingjue Ancient City, and he's worth that price. If Mr. Hu also knows some secrets about Jingjue Ancient City that could help us, I can also offer a hundred thousand US dollars as compensation."

Her words were flawless, but Hu Bayi had no idea about Jingjue Ancient City; he had never even heard the name before.

"Miss Yang, although fifty thousand US dollars is a bit less, I'll grudgingly accept this job." Despite his boastful words, Hu Bayi was inwardly shocked. He never expected Shirley Yang to offer him fifty thousand US dollars! He had merely recited his understanding of the Sixteen Character Yin Yang Feng Shui Secret Art and put on a show, and he was getting fifty thousand US dollars!

Where else could he find such a good deal?

Clap clap clap~

A round of warm applause erupted. The three students were clapping, looking at Hu Ming and Hu Bayi with admiration. They felt ashamed of their previous superficiality, never expecting the applicants today to be such experts.

The three students then introduced themselves to Hu Ming and Hu Bayi.

Fatty, standing to the side, felt completely ignored and very displeased.

Hey, what the hell? I get looked down upon wherever I go. Damn bookworms with their judgmental eyes. And that American girl, coming all the way to my country to fund archaeological research, she must be a tomb raider.

She's eyeing our country's treasures.

Fatty cast a disdainful glance at everyone, then fixed his gaze on Shirley Yang, his face full of annoyance. He couldn't shake the feeling that Shirley Yang was up to no good. Noticing Fatty staring at her, Shirley Yang finally paid attention to him. If Fatty knew what she was thinking, he'd be furious.

Shirley Yang thought: Hu Ming and Hu Bayi both possess skills. This fatty is with them, and their relationship seems like brothers. He must also be a capable person.

Therefore, she walked up to Fatty. As Shirley Yang moved, everyone's gaze followed her.

Fatty couldn't help but feel a little nervous. As Shirley Yang approached, he caught a refreshing, pleasant scent that filled his lungs. It was incredibly pleasant. Although he found the girl in front of him displeasing, he had to admit she was naturally beautiful, the kind of woman any man would desire.

"Miss Yang, hello. My name is Wang Kaixuan, also known as Fatty."

Fatty extended his hand to shake Shirley Yang's. He had seen Shirley Yang shaking hands frequently before and assumed it was an American custom. They should adhere to it.

Shirley Yang glanced faintly at Fatty's slightly plump outstretched hand. After a moment's hesitation, she lightly shook it, giving Fatty some face out of respect for Hu Ming and the others.

"Mr. Hu Ming and Mr. Hu have demonstrated profound skills. May I ask what your specialty is, Mr. Wang?"

"Our journey into the desert this time is not a tour. All applicants must have special skills. May I ask what abilities you possess, Mr. Wang? Please demonstrate."

Shirley Yang looked at Fatty expectantly.

If this Mr. Wang is also a person with profound skills, then I will have met three experts. With their assistance, why should I fear not finding the secret of the Ghost Eye Curse?
