My Stunning Beauty Special Agent Wife

The final decision was to first rest and send people separately to monitor the situation on the mountain.

Going down to the tomb at this time is clearly unwise.

They had traveled all night; exhausted from the journey, they were utterly worn out. The tomb below was damp and dark, narrow, and they'd have to stay there for a long time. They might not even reach the main burial chamber before collapsing.

After agreeing on the plan, Yang Chen returned to organize shifts for watching the mountain, rotating every hour for rest. Since they had few people, they couldn't allocate someone just to monitor the mountain.

Whereas the Xiang family had many people and reinforcements, something Yang Chen's team couldn't compete with.

Everyone went to rest.

During the day, the village also appeared very quiet.

Two in the afternoon.

The neighboring yard started a fire for cooking.

At three, everyone woke up and went to the neighboring yard to eat; at half-past three, everyone had gathered.

Everything was prearranged, so there were no deviations.

The only issue was that everyone was somewhat fatigued, lacking in spirit.

The leaders of both teams briefed their respective squads on the situation.

Yang Chen's side.

Yang Chen looked at everyone, speaking solemnly: "You all know what happened yesterday. Besides us, another group entered the mountain, so we must head into the mountain immediately! But who they are, their identity, their purpose, whether they are foe or friend, we don't know yet. We must be careful, understood?"

"Understood!" everyone replied in unison.

Yang Chen stared at them, "We've survived numerous storms and battles, climbed out of trenches, and now face an entirely new, unknown domain. I hope none of you encounter any accidents. As I said before we set out, as many people go out, that's how many I will bring back! Count off!"

"One! Two! Three! Four! Five! Six! Seven! Report! Seven expected, seven present, awaiting orders!"

Yang Chen nodded slightly, "Then seven of you will go down to the tomb with me, and we'll all return together! If anyone dares to mess up, I'll flatten this mountain if I have to, to bring you back! But don't cause me trouble; after all, digging up a mountain is tiring."

Everyone couldn't help but chuckle softly, looking at Yang Chen with excitement.

After a year, they could finally fight alongside Yang Chen again.

To them, battling alongside Yang Chen is the meaning of life!

Though this time is different, it's undoubtedly a battle to them, and they are ready!

Zhang Shaoting looked at the others' excited expressions, feeling a bit desolate.

Back when training with Yang Chen, under Zhao Shisan's guidance, he imagined such moments, dreamed of passion and hot-bloodedness.

However, due to the Zhang family's issues, his passion and fervor had long been buried in the musty tomb passage.

Yang Chen thought for a moment and told everyone, "Bring your gear, just in case!"

"Yes!"

Everyone immediately returned to the house, armed and equipped.

On the other side, the Xiang family was ready.

Xiang Xingyu approached Yang Chen, glancing at the weapons the group was equipped with, a hint of apprehension in his eyes.

After all, this sophisticated gear isn't something ordinary people can get, it's top-notch standard equipment rarely seen in the market!

"Ready? Shiwa has been brought over." Xiang Xingyu said to Yang Chen.

Yang Chen nodded and turned to tell everyone, "Let's move out!"

Everyone immediately followed.

Leaving the house.

Yang Chen saw the Xiang family ready to set off and Shiwa, standing fearfully in front of their team.

"You promised to pay me, I want to see the money!" Shiwa said timidly.

Xiang Xingyu directly took wads of cash from someone's bag and tossed them at Shiwa's feet.

One wad, two wads!

Thick bundles lay on the ground, giving Shiwa an immense visual shock.

This sensory jolt made Shiwa's eyes widen, his body trembling uncontrollably.

It's a total of five wads, that means fifty thousand!

"Is it enough?" Xiang Xingyu sneered.

"Enough! Enough!" Shiwa quickly crouched down, clutching the fifty thousand in his arms, as if afraid someone might snatch it away.

Xiang Xingyu saw this scene and showed even more disdain, saying lightly, "This is just half. After going down with us and coming back, you'll receive the other half!"

"Good! Good!" Shiwa nodded repeatedly.

Xiang Xingyu looked at Yang Chen and asked, "Shall we head out?"

Yang Chen nodded slightly.

Xiang Xingyu immediately gave the order, "Move out!"

Everyone donned their gear and headed towards Wowo Mountain, with many villagers coming out to watch, but only looking from afar, their expressions indifferent, as though there was nothing unusual.

Yang Chen noticed this and slightly frowned, feeling something was amiss.

Simultaneously, Yang Chen glanced around, trying to find Left Envoy Yang, but it was bound to be in vain.

"What are you looking for?" Meng Po asked.

Since a woman's intuition is usually sharper.

"Nothing," Yang Chen gently shook his head; for now, the matter of Left Envoy Yang needed to remain secret.

Meng Po didn't press further and softly said to Yang Chen, "Did you notice Shiwa's eyes?"

Yang Chen nodded slightly, "I did!"

"Seems like the Xiang family is in trouble," Meng Po chuckled softly.

Perhaps the Xiang family didn't notice, but Yang Chen's people certainly did.

They were all seasoned veterans, able to be both soldiers and special agents, so their observations were detailed and sharp.

When Xiang Xingyu gave Shiwa the money, Shiwa's initial reaction was anger, followed by excitement.

The excitement was because Shiwa noticed the money in the unzipped bag!

Alongside Shiwa's excitement was a hidden malice.

Especially the instant Xiang Xingyu turned around and also looked at the person with the bag of money.

This indicated Shiwa was far from what others claimed as simply.

Wowo Mountain seemed not far from the village, but they still needed to cross a river.

Fortunately, the river was calm here, and they had prepared boats, making it easy to cross.

However, the rowing villagers refused to go ashore, insisting on waiting on the boat.

No choice, they disembarked to continue forward.

Wowo Mountain looked like a bun, with a circular mound, inwardly concave like a volcano crater, but unlike a volcano, whose crater is protruding, Wowo Mountain's is sunken inward.

The vegetation on the mountain was dense, but fortunately, the Xiang family had specialists to clear the path wielding machetes.

Suddenly, someone ahead exclaimed, "Snake!"

Followed by a scream.

Yang Chen frowned and hurried to look.

The snake was chopped into two segments but still contorted; upon seeing it, Yang Chen's eyes widened.

Because this snake turned out to be a Double-headed Snake!
