"Old lady, go and get some tea." Yu Wenda walked into the villa and said to an old lady who was wearing a pair of reading glasses. She looked like a knowledgeable person.
Obviously, this old lady was Professor Yu's wife. She had a gentle personality and nodded her head. She smiled at Zhuo Bufan and the rest and went into the kitchen. Soon, she came out with five cups of Bi Luo Chun.
The few of them sat on the sofa. When Zhuo Bufan saw Qiu Jinse taking the initiative to sit beside her, the two men opposite her looked at her with hostility. She thought to herself, Femme fatale.
Yu Wenda took a glance at Zhuo Bufan and smiled as he introduced, "This is Zhuo Bufan, a first-year student. She's also taking ancient literature as an elective." After saying that, he looked at the young man in the Fansize uniform and said, "This is Kong Jianbo, a second-year senior. He has done a few experiments with me. His talent is not bad, and he is very talented. Everyone should learn from him."
Kong Jianbo said humbly, "Professor, you're overpraising me. I'm just doing some research."
Yu Wenda nodded his head in satisfaction and pointed at another handsome young man. "Cao Baichuan is also a second-year senior." After that, he did not make any further introductions. Cao Baichuan was a famous second-generation rich kid in the university. If he was not willing to sponsor some of the research projects, Yu Wenda would definitely not let him stay here.
"Although Qiu Jinse is a first-year student, she has a unique understanding of ancient literature. Nowadays, there are many girls who are willing to take such a boring course." Yu Wenda sighed.
Zhuo Bufan had lived for three hundred years. He had survived life-and-death battles and treasure hunting in secret realms. His mind was even more meticulous than that of an old fox in the business world. Through Professor Yu's introduction, he understood that Kong Jianbo was probably really talented. Although he spoke modestly, the pride he exuded could not be concealed. This was the confidence that could occupy a certain field and become an outstanding existence.
As for Cao Baichuan, Professor Yu did not mention much about him. Moreover, he was wearing an expensive Patek Philippe watch on his wrist. One look and one could tell that he was from a rich family. He probably stayed here because he had sponsored the professor's research. His target was obviously Qiu Jinse who was sitting next to him.
After the introduction.
Professor Yu's gaze fell on Zhuo Bufan again with a hint of excitement. "Xiao Fan, did you bring the things here?"
Zhuo Bufan glanced at Qiu Jinse. This woman seemed to have her eyes on her since she came to the university. Coincidentally, she also appeared at the Fairy Mountain last time and was chased by a few killers. Zhuo Bufan guessed that her identity was not simple. However, she pretended to be pure and lively in front of everyone. She was a typical green tea bitch.
Although she did not know what Qiu Jinse's purpose was, she might be after the treasure map. However, as a Nine Revolution Celestial Lord, all schemes and tricks were useless. If someone really wanted to steal the treasure, she could just kill them all and end it all.
After thinking it through, Zhuo Bufan finally took out the map and placed it on the table.
Yu Wenda stared at it and hurriedly asked his wife to bring him his magnifying glass.
It was a worn-out sheepskin scroll that had been stained with time. It was about the size of a language textbook. There were some lines and densely packed tadpole characters drawn on it. Zhuo Bufan had almost flipped through all the books about languages in the library, but she could not find any explanation for these characters.
"Yes, these are the characters that appeared in Loulan Kingdom." Yu Wenda slapped his thigh in surprise, like a child who had received a certificate of merit.
He sighed.
"Xiao Fan, this treasure map of yours is too precious. I have studied the secret of the disappearance of the ancient Loulan Kingdom for ten years. This treasure map of yours will bring me a major breakthrough. However, if you find any antiques or relics, you have to hand it over to the country …" Yu Wenda finished speaking and glanced at Zhuo Bufan. Obviously, he felt that Zhuo Bufan would not get any benefits from taking such a precious thing out.
The corner of Zhuo Bufan's mouth twitched. She smiled and said, "Of course antiques should be handed over to the country. I support that." She thought to herself, If it's a treasure for cultivation, I will kill anyone who dares to steal it.
Yu Wenda nodded and sighed. "I was afraid that you would hold a grudge, but when the time comes, I will help you apply for some funding. I can't let you take it out for nothing."
After that, Yu Wenda took out the magnifying glass again and carefully examined the treasure map. He frowned and said, "These characters are not from the ancient Loulan Kingdom, but I have read a lot of related books and found that there was a change in power in this kingdom. It might have been war that caused the kingdom to disappear."
"Teacher, this should be the characters of the Jialan Kingdom, right?" Qiu Jinse suddenly said.
"The Jialan Kingdom?" Zhuo Bufan frowned.
Yu Wenda nodded. "It's very likely. According to the documents I have read and some ancient unearthed materials, there was a group of people from outside the ancient Loulan Kingdom. These people were called the Jialan Kingdom. There weren't many of them, so this kind of writing was not passed down. The disappearance of the ancient Loulan Kingdom might have something to do with these people."
"Professor Yu, according to your research, there were only a dozen or so people from the Jialan Kingdom. Could they have destroyed the entire ancient Loulan Kingdom?" Cao Baichuan sneered.
His words instantly calmed Yu Wenda. Yu Wenda frowned and shook his head. "It's true that there were only a dozen or so people from the Jialan Kingdom. Their written communication was very little. This treasure map should be the antique with the most written records. Although the ancient Loulan Kingdom wasn't powerful, it was still a kingdom."
This question had been on Professor Yu's mind for a long time. He couldn't figure out if it was the Jialan Kingdom's betrayal that caused the destruction of the ancient Loulan Kingdom.
Just as Yu Wenda was filled with doubts, Zhuo Bufan suddenly said lightly, "It's not impossible for a dozen people to destroy a country."
"Oh?" Yu Wenda looked at him and frowned. "Why do you say that?"
"Maybe these people aren't from Earth. They might have come from another planet or some other place. They have the ability to control lightning, summon rain, and cast beans to make soldiers. These people could fight an elite army," Zhuo Bufan said slowly.
He had already guessed that these Jialan Kingdom people were cultivators. Only a dozen cultivators could destroy a kingdom.
