"Isn't it? These girls are written all over it, saying they want to marry you. Look for yourself."
The Professor of Metaphysics gestured with his eyes for him to look outside. Amidst the crowd, there was a banner that read, "Marry Zhou Lin."
Zhou Lin heard this and looked, becoming even more speechless.
He hadn't said he wanted to marry them.
"Zhou Lin, your popularity is quite high. You're world-famous now. Who doesn't know that Zhou Lin is all-powerful?"
The Professor of Metaphysics began to tease him incessantly.
Zhou Lin glanced helplessly at the professor and finally placed his hope on the security guard at the door, praying they would stop them.
If these people saw him, wouldn't they eat him alive?
The two cars moved slowly inside, and seeing the academy packed with people, Zhou Lin felt like a prized pig.
Everyone wanted a glimpse.
In the Dean's conference room.
The Dean was arranging matters concerning the tomb when he saw the Professor of Metaphysics and Zhou Lin enter, but their appearances...
Were rather indescribable.
"Dean, aren't you going to do something? Have these women gone mad? How could they do such a thing?"
Zhou Lin still had some red lipstick marks on his face and a faint scent of perfume on him.
This was truly...
"Isn't this a good thing? Your lifelong event is settled."
The Dean found it amusing to see the once spirited Zhou Lin now looking like a disgruntled husband.
"I am a cultivator. I cannot have a wife. I must be detached from all worldly desires."
Zhou Lin sat on a chair and took a sip of water.
"Then why are you so attached to money? Aren't you detached from all worldly desires?"
The Professor of Metaphysics continued to tease him.
"What do you know? Even if I'm detached from all worldly desires, I still need to eat, drink, and relieve myself. I can't survive on air. Hurry up and get rid of these girls. They're too crazy."
When Zhou Lin spoke of money, it was an inviolable sore spot. No one could touch his money.
Seeing Zhou Lin's attitude, the Dean requested assistance from higher authorities to clear the scene and then looked at Zhou Lin.
"Take it out."
The Dean's words made Zhou Lin pause.
"What? Take out what?"
Zhou Lin truly didn't react. The scent of perfume was making him uncomfortable.
"The box you took from the Queen earlier. Take it out."
The Dean had seen clearly at the time that Zhou Lin had put the box away.
"You mean this?"
Zhou Lin casually took out the box he was holding, which was adorned with several gems.
"When did you get this? How come I didn't know anything about it?"
The Professor of Metaphysics looked at Zhou Lin in disbelief. Was he this quick?
"I got this before the Queen woke up. This thing is called the Ba Chong Bao Han. There might be something very important inside. You can study it. I'm tired and going back to rest."
"Oh, and when you went into the tomb this time, please tally up the money for me. Also, divide the money for the students and mercenaries. Then distribute it to everyone."
After speaking, Zhou Lin turned and left, yawning.
When the Professor of Metaphysics heard about distributing money, he was mainly surprised. Could Zhou Lin have such awareness? It was truly miraculous.
Zhou Lin woke up the next day.
As soon as he woke up, he heard a knock on the door. Zhou Lin shook his head to clear his mind.
When he opened the door, he saw the Dean and the Professor of Metaphysics standing there.
Zhou Lin generously opened the door, turned, and sat on the sofa, looking at the two people beside him.
"You couldn't unlock it?"
Seeing their expressions, Zhou Lin knew what was going on.
"Professor Zhou Lin, can you unlock it?"
The Professor of Metaphysics looked at Zhou Lin with some embarrassment.
"Yes, but you didn't ask me yesterday. I thought you could unlock it."
Zhou Lin readily took the box from the Dean's hand. According to the records in the book, this number should be the same as what Wu Xie said.
His slender fingers moved back and forth on the lock, and the Ba Chong Bao Han was easily unlocked.
The Dean and the Professor of Metaphysics were surprised to see Zhou Lin solve it so casually.
"You... you previously..."
The Dean couldn't remain calm.
"You didn't ask me."
Zhou Lin adopted an indifferent attitude and finally took out the contents and handed them to the Dean, calmly taking a sip of water.
The Dean and the Professor of Metaphysics looked at the map inside, which also had some text on it.
The Professor of Metaphysics didn't understand much about history and culture, so he could only look at the Dean.
The Dean first glanced at the map in his hand, then looked at the location on it.
"This seems to be Warring States period script."
The Dean looked at the script, not fully understanding the writing of this period, only recognizing some characters.
"Do you know Wang Canghai?"
Zhou Lin spoke first.
"You mean the master craftsman Wang Canghai? He built that heavenly palace before. Why are you asking about this?"
The Professor of Metaphysics was very familiar with this.
"The contents inside will be related to him. This is an underwater tomb. You can have the reconnaissance team go and check it out first to confirm your location."
Zhou Lin explained the reason based on his memory.
"You know this again?"
The Professor of Metaphysics looked at Zhou Lin, utterly exasperated.
"I heard my master mention it. My master also spoke of this, otherwise, how would I know so much?"
Zhou Lin habitually attributed everything to his master.
"I will have some people research this map. You just wait for the call to go to the tomb."
The Dean naturally believed Zhou Lin and didn't doubt him at all, starting his research from the history of the Warring States period.
Zhou Lin didn't respond.
"After you return, five million will be transferred to your account. Is that acceptable?"
The Dean, seeing Zhou Lin's demeanor, knew he was after money and finally sighed helplessly.
"Alright, as long as the money is in place, everything is negotiable. I won't go anywhere else. I'll wait for your call."
Upon hearing about money, Zhou Lin's spirits immediately lifted, and he readily agreed.
The Dean and the Professor of Metaphysics were speechless again upon hearing Zhou Lin say this. Zhou Lin truly loved money.
A few days later.
Great Xia released news again, officially confirming the discovery of an underwater tomb in the sea.
This tomb was from the Warring States period, which would greatly advance Great Xia's history.
As soon as the news was released, netizens couldn't sit still and began to comment.
