A Game Planned for Ages

The middle-aged man did not linger; after handing the letter to Li Hao, he quickly turned and left.

Gao Yao felt wronged and was also very surprised.

My own comment!

And that was over a thousand years ago!

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Gao Yao, like a wronged young wife, hurriedly explained, "I, Gao Yao, swear to heaven that I absolutely knew nothing about this matter."

Yan pondered, "This letter appeared a thousand years ago, which is vastly different from the Qin Dynasty in Gao Yao today. So it's not impossible that Gao Yao know about this. That's right, that's right."

Yan's face was full of conflict as she spoke.

This was the first time she had encountered such a situation, past and future!

Faced with the current situation, Yan couldn't explain it either.

Tony Stark stroked his chin with his right hand, deep in thought, and said, "Do you guys remember what happened after Thanos died, and the other Captain America?"

Omniscient Li: "You mean, this is a message left by Gao Yao in the future?"

Tony Stark: "Clearly, this is a message left by Gao Yao after he saw the group leader's transmigration. I'm just a little curious, what exactly did Gao Yao leave behind?"

Tony Stark looked at Gao Yao with great interest as he finished speaking.

Time, one of the most mysterious and unpredictable forces in the universe.

Even though Tony Stark had already seen The Avengers and knew that he would create a time machine in the future, Tony Stark still couldn't help but feel excited to witness the greatness of the power of time firsthand.

Time, what a mysterious and powerful force!

Little Fairy Yan Lingji: "Same curiosity."

Invincible Urchin Gu Santong: "Add one."

Although the others didn't speak, they all looked at Gao Yao.

Gao Yao looked at Li Hao with a pitiful and aggrieved expression.

He was completely bewildered and had no idea what had happened.

Li Hao remained silent.

The current situation has exceeded his expectations. Li Hao never imagined that the Myth world would be like this, so very strange!

Li Hao pondered for a moment, then smiled easily and said, "If we want to know what Gao Yao left behind, we'll just go and see for ourselves."

Angel Yan: "That's true."

Goddess Leona: "Haha, hurry up, hurry up! I can't wait to unravel the mystery. Time, a letter left over a thousand years ago, tsk tsk, Gao Yao's got some mystery going on, how interesting!"

Invincible Urchin Gu Santong: "→_→, I thought Gao Yao only knew how to flatter the group owner."

Tushan Yaya: "→_→, are you talking about yourself?"

Chen Nan: "Group owner, can you find the location of the First Emperor's Mausoleum?"

Li Hao raised an eyebrow and said, "You underestimate me too much. If I can't even find this, what's the point of me being here?"

As Li Hao spoke, he took a step forward and vanished without a trace.

The First Emperor's Mausoleum, the location of the Heavenly Palace.

Li Hao had been to this place before, so he easily found the location of the underground palace from back then.

What surprised Li Hao slightly was that this place was not deserted, but had already been occupied by someone. No, to be more precise, an archaeological team had been camped here for some time.

What surprised Li Hao the most was that this archaeological team was actually led by Yi Xiaochuan's father.

Li Hao narrowed his eyes, looking at the noisy scene below.

What's going on?

What's Professor Yi doing here?

Yan Lingji looked down and asked curiously, "Big Brother Group Leader, was this also arranged by Gao Yao?"

Everyone unconsciously looked at Gao Yao.

Gao Yao remained expressionless; it was unclear what expression he could possibly make.

He had already shed all his tears, and he only hoped that his future self wouldn't mess things up. As for the current situation, he could only leave it to fate.

Gao Yao almost fainted at the thought of offending the group owner.

What are you doing, you idiot!

Below.

Professor Yi gazed at the rolling mountains and forests, his feelings a complex mix.

Is this really it!?

"Professor, we are ready and can go into the mountains at any time." A young man stepped forward.

Professor Yi nodded slightly, and said with a complicated expression, "Let's go, it's time to unravel the mystery."

The young man looked completely bewildered.

The answer?

Professor Yi offered no explanation and turned to walk towards the camp.

"Dad, we will definitely find Xiaochuan."

Seeing the professor's complicated expression, Yi Dachuan understood what his father was worried about and quietly comforted him.

The reason they came here was because someone told them to come here to find Yi Xiaochuan's whereabouts.

Both Professor Yi and Yi Dachuan felt it was somewhat absurd.

Why would Yi Xiaochuan end up in this desolate wilderness? But considering that the other party not only provided a specific location but also funded this archaeological activity, the two lowered their guard.

In any case, at worst it's just a wasted trip.

With these thoughts in mind, the two arrived at Mount Li.

The route into the mountains had already been explored, and the group of a dozen or so people moved forward silently, with some carrying cameras to livestream the journey. Professor Yi did not particularly object to this unusual request from his employer; as long as it did not interfere with his archaeological work or damage the cultural relics, these were minor matters.

Yi Dachuan glanced at the photographer, his brows furrowing slightly.

He felt as if everything was being arranged for him, from the self-proclaimed live reporter from a local TV station to the messages the two of them received.

Everything seemed to be controlled by an invisible black hand.

Yi Dachuan sometimes even wondered if these people had kidnapped his younger brother.

Filled with doubt, the group ventured deep into the mountains.

After passing through dark woods and steep ravines, the group soon arrived at the cave they had discovered earlier. It was deep and dark, like a giant maw that could devour everything.

Professor Yi stopped at the entrance of the passage and instructed his longtime colleagues, who had followed him for many years. "According to our information, there is a very ancient tomb here. Our purpose is to conduct a protective excavation, so I won't go into the specific details and principles."

"Professor, is there really Ancient Tomb here?"

"Professor, did we come to Mount Li this time to find the tomb of the First Emperor?"

"Haha, if we find the First Emperor's tomb, we'll be in big trouble."

"That's hard to say. Maybe there's an First Emperor's Mausoleum here too."

Everyone looked relaxed, and some even made jokes.

The tomb of the First Emperor has long been discovered, and the majestic Terracotta Army is one of the Eight Wonders of the World. Who could have imagined that such a magnificent achievement could be accomplished in that era?

Professor Yi, with a stern face, reprimanded, "Enough! We're here to do serious business, not to joke around. Archaeology is a serious matter that cannot tolerate the slightest carelessness."

"I don't know what Ancient Tomb are here, or even if the news is true or false, but even if there's only a very small possibility, we must be extremely vigilant."

The smiles on everyone's faces vanished, and the atmosphere became tense.

Yi Dachuan said in a low voice, "Chief, we were just joking, there was no other meaning. Besides, we've all known each other for so many years, who among us has ever caused any trouble?"

Upon hearing this, Professor Yi's solemn expression softened slightly.

He knew he had been a bit harsh, and seeing the atmosphere become tense, Professor Yi sighed and said, "I'm sorry, I've been overly anxious lately because of Xiao Chuan's situation."

Upon hearing this, everyone quickly offered words of comfort.

"Professor Yi is right. Archaeology is a serious matter that cannot tolerate the slightest carelessness."

"Professor, don't worry too much about Xiaochuan. He'll probably be back in a few days."

"Ahem, Professor, let's go in and take a look. What if we find something amazing here?"

Everyone chimed in with their own opinions, some steer the conversation toward Xiao Chuan, some comforted Professor Yi, and others steered the discussion back to the main topic.

Unbeknownst to them, someone in the distance was closely watching their every move.

Yan Lingji: "Big Brother Group Leader, are we just going to watch like this?"

Angel Yan: "If you're not going to watch, do you really intend to let the group owner join in?"

Invincible Urchin Gu Santong: "Tsk tsk, I find this situation quite interesting. It's like someone has prepared a grand, epic drama, waiting for us, the audience."

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but turn to look at Gao Yao.

This grand spectacle, prepared for over a thousand years, was clearly orchestrated by someone.

Gao Yao silently bowed his head.

Alright, do as you please.

Gao Yao was utterly desperate about the current situation.

He had no idea what his future self was doing, or what was inside the First Emperor's Mausoleum. He didn't even know what the gift he was offering to Li Hao in the letter was.

Faced with countless doubts, especially those he himself had left behind, Gao Yao was deeply saddened.

It's one thing to get scammed by others, but I damn well scammed myself!

Goddess Leona: "Hehe, if the stinky group admin isn't satisfied with this performance, someone's going to be in trouble."

The Nine Heavens Holy Maiden Daji: "The question I'm most curious about right now isn't just what kind of show Gao Yao has prepared, but also that the group leader hasn't mentioned what he did more than two thousand years ago?"

Yan Lingji: "Huh, that makes sense. The Big Brother Group Leader didn't say what he did."

Chen Nan: "Curious. jpg"

Qiao Feng: "Curious. jpg"

Li Hao shrugged and said casually, "It's nothing, just added a little something to Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum. It was originally intended as a gift for future archaeologists. But now..."

Li Hao then turned to look at Gao Yao.

Gao Yao's lips twitched slightly.

The group owner made changes in the First Emperor First Emperor's mausoleum, leaving a surprise for the group owner inside.

Oh, that's not me, it's my future self.

Well, actually it doesn't matter whether it's me or not, since it'll definitely be counted against me anyway.

Gao Yao was on the verge of tears.

Nobody's as miserable as me.

Angel Yan: "With the group leader's strength, finding out what's inside the underground palace is just a matter of a thought."

Li Hao smiled and said, "The beauty of a surprise lies in its suddenness. If I break the rules, wouldn't I lose a lot of the fun?"

Alright, they've found the entrance to the underground palace. Let's go take a look. I'm really curious about the gift Gao Yao left behind."

Everyone laughed and joked, but Gao Yao looked as if his father had died.

No, it's more painful than losing my father.

The most painful thing in life is not death, but knowing when you will die and having to wait for it second by second. For Gao Yao, this is exactly the case now.
