Chapter 130 Good Uncle and Niece

The knot of the package was tied very tightly, and there was a delicate wooden box and a letter inside.

"It's mine... I mean, from my character's uncle," Sissy said.She herself does not have an uncle who works in Nigeria.

She read the letter aloud.The letter was written in Russian, and she was not allowed to translate it again in Chinese.Her daily communication in Chinese is already very fluent, but she is still a little stumbling when translating.

[Sisi:
Sorry I haven't been able to call you.Recently, there are more and more climbers coming to Nigeria to join in the fun, and there are many more planes taking off and landing at Tenshin Hillary Airport. 】

Sissy repeated the awkward name.

"Where is the Tenshin Hillary Airport?" she asked, taking out her mobile phone to search.

"I've already found out," Chen Qiang said, "Tenshin Hillary Airport, also known as Lukla Airport, is a plateau airport that ranks first among the world's ten most dangerous airports. The 'runway on the roof of the world' is for mountaineering Lukla doesn’t even have a road to the outside world.”

"A place like this..."

Cecile thought for a while, and then read the letter.

[In order to avoid the routes of those tourist climbers, our team spent a lot of brains.You know, a lot of them come here for the thrill of being the highest in the world.Can you imagine?Some of them don't even know how to wear hiking shoes, and people from the travel company need to help them put them on in the base camp.I even saw someone learn how to use crampons from a guide on the spot at an altitude of 8000 meters! 】

Sisi paused.I would never do such a thing, she thought.If you really want to go up the mountain, you should climb upright with your own training and ability!
[The physical fitness of the passengers is not good enough. Rather than saying that they climbed up by themselves, it would be better to say that they were carried up by the Sherpas who acted as guides.Such a climb is too risky.

In short, going uphill along their route is not only congested but boring.We took a different route and made the summit and return in the shortest possible time with no injuries. 】

The original text of the letter was written very modestly, understating the fact that I took an unusual path to climb Mount Everest, with a feeling of "a good fighter has no great achievements", but after a layer of translation, "Invisible pretending is the most deadly "The temperament is slightly lost.

Sissi pondered for a moment.

"Keeper," she put down the letter, calling to the bare white ceiling of the house, "can you tell me more about 'my' uncle?"

"System...I mean, Secret Keeper, let us listen too." Chen Qiang interrupted.

"Your uncle, Joshua Yaroslovsky, is a professional explorer and archaeologist," the voice of the system's automatic reply sounded, "Now the country is engaged in archaeological work."

"That's it?" Sissi seemed a little disappointed by the system's overly "succinct" reply.

"Go on and read on." Chen Qiang urged.

"Oh……"

Cecilu helplessly turned the letter to the next page.

【I will take the next flight back to Canada, take a good rest in the city for a few days, and then continue my trip in Nigeria.I also met my old friend Professor Cairns in the camp near the airport.To be honest, this feeling of meeting old friends in a foreign land makes me very happy. 】

Chen Qiang blinked his eyes.Every time Cecilu pauses, there must be a question to ask.

"Keeper, do I know this 'Professor Keynes'?" Cecilu asked.

"You have never seen this person," the system's mechanical voice was always cold, "but I heard my uncle talk about him once. He is an Indian-American."

[Professor Keynes told me something that interested me very much.Seriously, this is a bit out of my depth, so would appreciate your help.

The box that came with the letter contained a work of art which I had acquired from Professor Cairns.He bought it from a Sherpa hermit for a premium.The hermit found the artifact in the ruins of a temple and sold it to Professor Cairns, thinking it should have historical value. 】

"That must be the thing in that little wooden box." Qin Lingxue said.

[This ancient handicraft has been weather-beaten, but Professor Cairns, who is an expert on local history, cannot identify its origin.Cairns has one of the best memories I have ever met and I doubt he has the entire collections of Kadu, Tribhuvan and Pokhara in his head.This artifact is something even he can't figure out, and I suspect that there may be an unknown local history behind it.

I also did research on the material aspects of this craft.In Lukla's barracks, I worked almost in vain all night.There is no doubt that it is made of precious jadeite, and with its complex structure, any violent dismantling may cause irreversible damage to this precious antique.

Sissi, I know that your employer, Boss Chen Qiang Chen, is a kind and generous gentleman.I've heard that his generosity has funded many embarrassing historians...]

"Does your character still have this kind of setting?" Sisi suddenly raised her head and asked curiously.

"Never mind this..." Chen Qiang was speechless.

"……All right."

Maomei cleared her throat and continued to read the letter:

[... We know that Huaguo has a deep heritage in the study of ancient history and culture.I hope to connect with archaeological experts in Huaguo through Mr. Chen's relationship.As far as I know, there are Huaguo experts who have practiced in highland temples in Tribhuwan University now.Maybe those knowledgeable oriental scholars can give us an explanation for what we don't know.If this handicraft really revealed an unknown history, Huaguo's technical support would be even more important. 】

"Is that so..."

【Sisi, I hope you can show this handicraft to your employer.If he is interested in this item, we can just start a joint research.By the time you read this letter, I have already returned to Kadu.I am mailing the handicraft to you in advance now, and I hope you must show it to Mr. Chen; if Mr. Chen is willing to accept my invitation, that would be great.You can find me in the wealthy area of ​​Canada, where I live temporarily.If Mr. Chen wants me to visit, I will write down my current mobile phone number below. 】

[Professor Cairns went to Pokhara town, and his luggage is still in the school there.It will be a few days before he returns to Canada.If Mr. Chen wants to find him, he can call the fixed line of Pokhara University. 】

[I wish you all the best, dear niece. 】

[Your uncle, Joshua. 】

The room was silent for a few seconds.

"I wish I had such a good uncle in reality." Cecilu murmured.

"There is another page below." Qin Lingxue walked behind Sai Qian at some point.

"Ah... I'm sorry."

Cecile turned the letter to the last page.There was only one sentence written on the white letter paper:

[PS: I heard that Mr. Chen is dating one of his female bodyguards.I don't know if that's you.Mr. Chen is a great employer, but it would be good to have a better relationship with him. 】

"..."
