Raising his eyebrows slightly, Di Cheng shook his head: "It's my honor, Di Cheng, to accept your invitation. Thank you for your kindness, but I'm sorry, I still have a lot to do and can't stay in one place for a long time."
Nangong Shang seemed to have expected Di Cheng's answer, so he didn't try too hard and said with a smile: "Outsiders say that my eyes are very accurate at seeing diamonds and jade, just like Sun Monkey's fiery eyes. In fact, I think I can see people very well."
It's quite accurate. Your free and easy confidence and unique temperament are definitely not possessed by ordinary people. Even I feel a little inadequate. This is not modesty, but a feeling. I can only say that you must have some kind of lofty ideals.
ideal, and are walking towards the goal.”
Di Cheng's heart moved slightly, and he quietly looked at Nangong Shang, but did not say anything. In this situation, it was better for him to remain silent. He couldn't say "You are very good at judging people," as that would be a bit unsightly.
"It's reasonable for you not to agree. I'm just making a little effort to reassure myself. I don't know what kind of force your Skynet organization belongs to, and I don't know what you want to do. But if necessary, even if
Mention it, I will try my best to help if I can." Nangong Shang said with a smile. But his smiling face concealed too much in his heart, and Di Cheng couldn't tell whether he meant something ulterior or just being polite, so
It was just a simple thank you.
"It's getting late, Mr. Di, please go back and rest early. By the way, the reason why I urge you to come back as soon as possible is because the day after tomorrow will be my father's birthday, and I will hold a banquet at this villa that day. I hope Mr. Di will be there by then
You can also participate.”
Di Cheng said: "My task is to protect Miss Huan'er within this month. As long as the time has not come, I will look after her."
Di Cheng is not stupid, so he naturally understands what the other party means. Nangong Shang's crisis has not disappeared. There will be too many people at the banquet the day after tomorrow. He is worried about Nangong Huan'er's safety and hopes that Di Cheng can continue to protect her.
Nangong Shang smiled and nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."
Returning to the yard arranged by Nangong Shang, Dahan was still holding a whole leg of lamb and chewing it happily. When he saw Di Cheng coming back, Dahan scratched his head and giggled: "It smells so good."
Di Cheng smiled and said: "Eat more if it smells good. We have to stay here for several days. The Nangong family has a big business. Just ask those people what you want to eat. By the way, does your neck still hurt?" That day in the warehouse
, in order to knock him unconscious, Di Cheng used 70% of his strength, which was a terrifying force that could break a big tree. After waking up, Dahan complained that his neck hurt, and the pain lasted for several days.
Dahan twisted his neck and said in a loud voice: "Much better, nothing serious."
"That's good. Go to bed early after eating and don't wander around." Di Cheng patted Dahan on the shoulder and wanted to sit down together, but then the phone in his pocket suddenly rang, and the name on the caller ID forced him to reply.
Go to the room.
"Congratulations, you have completed the warm-up task perfectly, and you have hired an assistant with unlimited potential." Anne's captivating voice came from the phone.
Di Cheng had no intention of hiding Dahan's existence. With the other party's intelligence ability, he could naturally understand clearly. Di Cheng did not bother with her in this regard. He lay on his back on the soft sofa and said calmly: "There are still three days.
Then it’s truly done.”
"I have said before the mission that this mission may be too difficult for outsiders, but for you Di Cheng, it is as simple as child's play. The real purpose of guarding Nangong Huan'er is just to let you relax after five years of living on the grassland.
You will have the opportunity to adapt, make good friends with Nangong Shang, and build your own network of relationships."
"You mean...the next mission has been arranged?" Di Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly and he spoke in a moderate tone.
"The organization has issued the latest instructions. The next phase of the mission will be officially launched in three days. The specific action time and plan are under your own control. However, I need to solemnly remind you that this mission is by no means the level of protecting Nangong Huan'er.
The dangers are definitely not on the same level. This mission is the first mission that Di Cheng really needs to perform after joining Skynet. For this... you need to be fully prepared, otherwise, death will soon come to you.
On the head." On the other end of the phone, Annie's voice was strong and strong, but also sweet from within. The blend of simplicity and charm made people imagine endlessly. Even if they knew that the other party was talking about something serious, Di
Cheng couldn't help but say he enjoyed it.
"Stop being pretentious, let's just talk about the mission. Serving these young ladies is not my strong point, and it's not much fun to play around with those little ghosts and goblins."
"Little ghost and little demon? Do you know the names of the Swordfish Troop and the Wolf Hunter Troop in the world? Do you know the reputation of Ghost Dance and Blood Yaksha in the world of killers?" Annie felt like she was dumbfounded, but it was right to think about it. Skynet
These guys among them really have this pride.
After a short pause, Anne started to talk about the topic, saying: "There was a period of Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms in history, which was between the end of Tang Dynasty and the beginning of Song Dynasty. After the Huangchao Uprising, the Tang Dynasty existed in name only, forming a separatist situation of vassal towns. In 907,
Zhu Wen sharpened the power of the Later Liang Dynasty, and history entered the era of chaos, with the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. Until 960, when Zhao Kuangyin replaced the Later Zhou Dynasty and established the Northern Song Dynasty, the separatist situation among the heroes collapsed."
"Wait a minute, I don't know much about history, but I have heard about the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, so you don't need to explain history to me now. Please... tell... the key points!" Di Cheng said lukewarmly.
"This is the key point. In 591 AD, Guo Wei proclaimed himself emperor, and his country was named Zhou. This man was born in poverty and knew the sufferings of the people. After taking the throne, he carried out a large number of reforms to the ills of the previous dynasty, giving the people who were once under tyranny a chance to breathe.
However, this man's life was short, and he died after only reigning for three years. Overall, he can be regarded as a good emperor in history.
In fact, compared to other dynasties such as the Tang and Song Dynasties, Guo Wei was unknown and did not have much influence in history. But... your mission is related to him, or to his imperial mausoleum."
"Tomb robbing?" Di Cheng suddenly thought of this word, and his face became a little strange. What on earth was Tianwang thinking? He arranged for himself to be a bodyguard, and he endured it. But now... he was allowed to rob tombs again??!!
"That's understandable."
"Are you kidding me?" Di Cheng's voice started to turn cold. Is this a so-called difficult task?
"Don't worry, we are not asking you to rob tombs. Please listen to me first. Although Guo Wei said that he was born in a humble family, there were not many treasures in the imperial tombs after his death. But according to our research, we found that this person was born before the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Then he began to secretly train dead soldiers, with the purpose of taking on the task of guarding the imperial mausoleum after death. These people belonged to the same clan, and each had unique skills. After Guo Wei's death, he secretly transported his body away and placed it in his secret ancestral hall.
.You can’t verify this from formal history, nor from many unofficial histories. If you want to ask for the exact source of the information, I can only say that I have no comment.”
