Zhou Yu's captain is a strong man in his early twenties, with a thick beard on his lips, which makes him look mature that is inconsistent with his age.

Seeing his team members' clothes listless, he shouted loudly: "Everyone is cheering up. We will depend on ourselves for the next period of time. Let's rest here for a while and check the equipment."

The team members did not speak, sat together silently and took off the backpack behind them.

The backpacks of the expedition team were sewn with dinosaur farts, and their strength was even far more powerful than cowhides.

Wang Lang designed this kind of adventure bag based on modern mountaineering bags, which can hold at least a dozen pounds of things, but of course the team members cannot carry such heavy things for a long journey.

Most people only have one or two books in their backpacks, dry food for food on the road, some first aid medicines, and clean gauze and other essential things.

There was a kettle made of dinosaur skin hanging around the waists of these expedition members. The scattered equipment looked not much, but the weight was almost ten kilograms.

Zhou Yu opened the backpack he was holding and carefully checked it. He tied the backpack again when he saw that there was nothing wrong with it.

After seeing everyone checking, the captain repeatedly watched something strange.

Zhou Yu had seen this thing. According to officials from the Ministry of Works, this thing was used in the navy and was named Compass.

This small thing can automatically distinguish between north and south, which is very magical for these students.

But they knew that this was definitely not the power of a god, but a principle that they did not know, which was not found in the book at all.

The captain looked at the trembling needle in the compass and raised his head to look around, asking another student with the full map of China to take out the map.

Compared with the map, the captain said in a deep voice: "This is Dingbei City. We are now about twenty miles west of Dingbei City. There should be a mountain range when we go west. We have learned it during our training. Minerals are generally easier to find in places with many mountains. Let's go here first. After searching here for a while, we will continue to go west. Let's see if you have any opinions."

"We listen to the captain."

Everyone answered one after another.

The captain nodded and said, "Okay, let's go west in this direction now. We must find a suitable camp before dark."

Everyone cheered up, put on their backpacks, took their weapons, and walked carefully towards the West.

In Yancheng, when Wu Feng became familiar with his new identity for a month, he began to think about his lifelong affairs.

Although he is now a fifth-rank official, he is still a little afraid of Minister Lin.

This prospective son-in-law met his father-in-law in ancient times and modern times, which was a challenge to men.

After a long period of confusion in his heart, Wu Feng finally made up his mind to go to the Lin family in person.

When Wu Feng's mother and adoptive father heard Wu Feng say he bite to Minister Lin's house to propose marriage, both of them looked at him as if they were ghosts.

Before, Mr. Lin sent someone to come to propose marriage regardless of the difference in his identity.

You rejected such a big person at the beginning, but now you go to someone to propose marriage. Isn’t this a joke?

"Feng, are you confused? You are going to the Lin family now, aren't you making yourself uncomfortable? Mr. Lin can't beat you out?" Wu Feng's adoptive father frowned.

"I also know that this is difficult, but I can't fly there. I promised Miss Lin to go to the Lin family after the exam. It has been a month since then, and I can't drag it on any longer." Wu Feng sighed.

"Miss Lin, which Miss Lin?" asked Wu's mother.

Wu Feng couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and said hesitantly: "It's... it's Mr. Lin's daughter."

The two were stunned when they heard this.

"When did you meet Miss Lin? Why haven't you heard you mention it?" Wu's mother looked at Wu Feng in surprise.

"This matter is a long story. Mother, father, I must do this." Wu Feng's expression suddenly became serious.

The two looked at each other, and Wu's father sighed and said, "Forget it, what should the child do if he wants. I have worked in the Ministry of Works for so many years and have heard from Mr. Lin. Although this man has a little temper, he is still quite sensible. Besides, he was optimistic about our style before, so let him give it a try."

Wu's mother was silent for a while, looked at Wu Feng and said, "What are you going to do?"

"The salary this month has been paid. I want to use this money to buy something to go to the Lin family. No matter what the result is, I must go." Wu Feng said in a deep voice.

"Your monthly salary is only a few dollars, so Mr. Lin probably doesn't like it. I have saved some money over the years. I will take it out for you later and buy some good things to send it." Wu's father said slowly.

"Father!"

Wu Feng was very moved. Although he was not the biological child of the man in front of him, he almost treated him as his own. It was Wu Feng's luck to be able to grow up in the Wu family.

Wu's father got up from the chair and walked towards his room.

After a while, he came out with a wooden box.

"This is seventy stale money, you can take it."

Wu's father said as he placed the wooden box on the table.

Wu Feng nodded, and didn't have much time. He took the box over, stood up and said, "Mother, then I'll go there."

The two nodded and watched Wu Feng walk out of the house with a worried look on his face.

Wu Feng walked on the crowded street with his money box in his arms, looking restless.

When passing by the square in the center of Yancheng, Wu Feng looked at the bell tower under construction. The appearance of the clock tower has been completed. He estimated that in another two or three months, the building will be officially put into operation.

Ordinary people don’t know what this is, but as a middle-level official of the Ministry of Works, he naturally has no reason not to know.

He had seen the process of making clocks with his own eyes. Those complex mechanical parts and beautiful gears are still shaking his heart.

What kind of wisdom is it to design such exquisite machinery? His Majesty, the most wise emperor of Daxia, always looks down at himself in the clouds like an unattainable mountain.

This little wisdom of his is insignificant in front of him like an ant.

Wu Feng shook his head and didn't think about this. After passing the square, he came to the most prosperous street in Yancheng.

With this money, Wu Feng spent several hours purchasing. In order to transport these things, he even rented a vehicle at the trading station before walking towards the Lin family.

Lin Family.

Ruby Lin sat on a low stool in the yard, following several female elders preparing for today's supper, but from her eyes, she could see that her heart was not here at this moment.

The sun gradually became more and more beautiful as the sunset in the horizon, setting off this huge city.

"Bump!"

A knock on the door came.

The Wu family was a little surprised. There was basically no visit at this time, so I don’t know who would come at this time.

Ruby Lin looked at the confinement gate, her eyes full of expectation and tension.

A woman put down the dish in her hand and went to open the door.

When the gate of the courtyard opened and the woman saw that the person who came was a strange young man, she asked in confusion: "Who are you looking for?"

"It's time for Minister Lin's home!" Wu Feng said nervously.

The woman nodded and said, "It's Mr. Lin's house, you are..."

"Oh, my name is Wu Feng. Today I came to visit Mr. Lin." Wu Feng replied quickly.

The woman looked at Wu Feng, muttering the name, her face suddenly changed, she looked at Wu Feng in surprise and said, "Are you the top scorer?"

Wu Feng smiled and said, "It's the student."

When she saw Wu Feng admitting, the woman's expression became a little weird. This is not the first time she has heard of the name Wu Feng. In addition to the reason for the top scholar, she is more of the person who is not aware of the current affairs in the middle of the mouth.

Seeing the woman's expression, Wu Feng asked, "Is there any problem?"

The woman shook her head quickly and said, "No problem, you can wait here and I'll tell my husband."

Wu Feng nodded and watched the woman run hurriedly towards the yard.

Back in the courtyard, the other two women asked curiously: "Sister, who is outside the door?"

"Oh, you'll know in a while."

After saying that, he turned around and walked into the house.

In the spacious and bright room, Mr. Lin was lying on the rocking chair, enjoying the evening sun leisurely, and humming an unknown song gently, which looked so comfortable.

"Husband!"

Hearing the woman's voice, Mr. Lin slowly opened his eyes and said, "What's wrong."

"Husband, someone is coming to look for him outside the door." The woman said with a strange expression.

"If someone wants him in."

"This person is named Wu Feng, and he is the top scorer this year."

When Mr. Lin heard this, his face suddenly became cold and he snorted coldly: "I won't see you."

The woman said in a little embarrassedly: "Husband, he is the top scholar this year. He is an official in the same court as you. It's not good to do this."

"What a bullshit top scorer? He made me lose face in front of my colleagues. I didn't cause trouble for him, so he dared to come to him." Mr. Lin said in a cold tone.

"Okay, I'll let him go back now." The woman shook her head and turned to leave.

Wu Feng suddenly appeared, completely messing up his rare good mood. Mr. Lin was so angry that he was so angry.

"My husband said, he won't see you, so you'd better go back." After the woman finished speaking to Wu Feng, she wanted to close the gate of the courtyard.

Wu Feng quickly reached out to support the courtyard door and said, "Mrs. Lin, I must meet Mr. Lin today. I am going to want to propose marriage to the Lin family. I want to marry Lin Xin."

The woman was startled by Wu Feng's actions. When she heard Wu Feng's words, she sneered and said, "Marry Ruby Lin, what have you done long ago? My husband is unhappy because of this. Don't say that my husband doesn't agree, I don't agree either. You can leave quickly."

Wu Feng had been struggling for so long before he made up his mind to come to the Lin family. He went back in shame. How could he be willing to do so? He pulled his neck and shouted loudly: "Lin Xin, Lin Xin."
