Ultimate Assassin: Start as the sixth floor in the Continental Hotel

Chapter 182 Peach Blossom Spring

"This is……"

Chen Yan looked at the scene in front of him in shock.

Green grass, blooming peach blossoms, turbulent streams, and curling smoke. If Chen Yan hadn't known that he was in the ruins of CNYS-013, he would have thought that he had mistakenly entered the filming scene of some movie or TV series.

Because this place was full of people coming and going, and those people were dressed in retro clothes that made Chen Yan think they were filming some historical drama.

"Mr. Chen Yan!"

Laura tugged on Chen Yan's sleeves, frowned and said, "Have we traveled through time and space? These people's clothes... look like the clothes from the Yan Kingdom and Qin Dynasty..."

"Taoyuan, huh..." Chen Yan said with a complicated face at this moment.

When Chen Yan was a child in his previous life, a text he learned at school seemed to record such a scene. That is "The Peach Blossom Spring" written by Mr. Tao Yuanming during the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

"The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring" records the story of a Wuling man who strayed into the Peach Blossom Spring while fishing. It was once widely used in primary school Chinese test papers in the Yan Kingdom as a reading comprehension question. However, when he saw such a scene, Chen Yan was only shocked.

This should be the "Peach Garden" mentioned by the owner of the voice in the ruins. The people in retro clothes lived and worked in peace and contentment, and there were many children playing and playing. The beautiful environment made Chen Yan always feel a little unreal, while Laura took out her notebook and started writing and drawing, originally thinking of taking pictures. , and when I took out my phone, I found that it was malfunctioning.

Electromagnetic interference is still effective in this picturesque place.

"Folks! Another guest is here!"

An exclamation came out from nowhere, followed by a burst of noisy footsteps. Chen Yan stared blankly at the chaotic crowd surrounding the two of them, feeling somewhat at a loss. The faces of these people were filled with friendly smiles, and some of them were holding agricultural tools in their hands. An aunt was carrying food and wanted to pass it to Chen Yan.

"You two are from the outside world." An old man walked out of the crowd and said with a smile. "Please don't be polite. It's been a long time since we, the people of Qin, have seen anyone from outside the world visit us. I apologize for the poor hospitality."

"Thank you all, I'm really scared." Chen Yan could only bow his hands and clumsily imitated the tone of the ancients, "I'm here to look for my companions. Have you ever seen other people from outside the world visit?"

"The two of you are staying at my house temporarily. They said they wanted to do some 'research'." The old man nodded clearly. "If you two are in a hurry, I can take you to the humble house to rest for a while."

"What a nuisance." Chen Yan handed over his hand again.

Seeing that Chen Yan was chatting happily with these "ancient people", Laura awkwardly imitated Chen Yan and bowed, making some children laugh and call her sister funny. Then she was scolded by her elders. Knocked on the head.

"You two, please follow me." The old man waved his hand and motioned for Chen Yan and Laura to follow, "I am the head of Taoyuan Village. If you need anything, just let me know."

"Although our Taoyuan Village is not rich, we will try our best to make you feel at home."

"Thank you, village chief." Chen Yan nodded.

Taoyuan Village is actually not very big. The village chief's house is on the west side of the village, close to the stream. From a distance, Chen Yan saw two middle-aged men in white work clothes discussing something next to the village chief's house.

"I think it's better not to report the situation here." One of them said with some distress, "The village chief and others don't know that Peach Blossom Spring is actually inside CNYS-013. Even if they are reported, we can't take them out. Ruins, the electromagnetic interference here is too strong, if we hadn’t accidentally bumped into it, we might have starved to death.”

"Come on, we want to take them out, but they may not want to leave." Another person rolled his eyes and said, "For them, Taoyuan Village is their ancestral home, not to mention whether we have the ability to take them out, even if If you can really take the folks in Taoyuan Village to the outside world, do you think they can live a happier life there?"

"Boy! New guests are here!" the village chief shouted, waving his arms, "They said they are here to find their companions!"

"New guest?" The members of the scientific expedition team were stunned for a moment, and then showed excitement, "Could it be..."

Chen Yan stepped forward slowly, and raised his right hand like a knife in a moment, making a standard military salute: "Hello, you two, I am Chen Yan, the second lieutenant of the Dragon Thorn Special Warfare Brigade of the Yanguo People's Liberation Army. I am here to pick you up specially."

"Hello."x2

The missing members of the scientific expedition team shook hands with Chen Yan one by one. Then, one of them looked Chen Yan up and down, pursed his lips, and said: "Although I know it's a bit disappointing to say this at this time, but... Mr. Chen , the electromagnetic interference in this place is very serious, our GPS has been damaged, and the Yanguo scientific expedition team has no way to find us, are you sure you can take us out?"

"Yeah, it seems like you don't have any positioning equipment with you. Even if you find us, it's not worth the loss if you get lost." Another person agreed.

"Don't worry, I already roughly know how to do it." Chen Yan smiled and patted the man's shoulder. Then, he looked around, leaned closer and whispered: "Isu people in CNYS-013, I heard Her voice."

"What?!" The man was shocked, his eyes full of enthusiasm for scientific inquiry, "Really? Ancient ancestors who have survived for tens of thousands of years... If we can really meet them, it will definitely have a negative impact on our country's archaeological research. Landmark help!”

"It's a pity that I can't take you there." Chen Yan shook his head. "The owner of the ruins said that you and Miss Laura beside me are allowed to leave, but I must stay."

"What do you mean?" Laura said in shock, "I have never heard of such a thing!"

"Isn't it normal for you, a foreigner, to not be able to hear the oracle of our Yanguo God?" Chen Yan said helplessly, "Don't worry, the owner of the ruins probably has no ill intentions. It's just this archaeological operation. Maybe it disturbs An's sleep, so we have to have someone to negotiate."

"..."

Laura and the members of the archaeological team looked at each other, and then Laura took the lead and said: "Then, these two and I will wait for you in Taoyuan. We can just do some investigation and record of the situation here."

"We're going out with you."

The corner of Chen Yan's mouth twitched. According to the owner of the ruins, he was probably going to have some mission to fulfill. When he comes back, these people in Taoyuan Village will probably be divorced and have two children.

However, it's better not to say this to them. At worst, when you see that person, just ask him to send these three guys out of the ruins.

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
