Chapter 1076: Blood coagulates! Time freezes at forty years old!

"The curse I speak of can be understood as a virus. It is a virus that has remained for thousands of years, and the effect of this virus is somewhat different from modern viruses."

"You can completely define it as a kind of chronic poison."

The people in the Crescent Hotel didn't know what to say anymore; some even wanted to ask questions but didn't know from which angle to address this matter.

The situation Zhang Lin explained was completely outside their scope of cognition!

And in their original cognition, this kind of curse was just meant to scare people!

Whether looking at history or looking at things recorded in novels,

as long as the concept of a curse was involved, everything was false.

It could also be perceived that the person who wrote this at the time just wanted to create this panic and leave it for those who came later!

But now, in Zhang Lin's concept, it was completely different. And at this moment, no one went to question Zhang Lin, and even fewer thought he was deliberately using such means to scare them.

Zhang Lin quickly shook his head and said slowly, "Don't be too afraid. The reason I am talking about this matter now is also because opening the coffin later involves this layer of the curse. After the coffin is opened, the curse will not spread."

At this moment, the people in the Crescent Hotel knew how to ask questions. Someone hurriedly raised their hand and said, "Mr. Zhang, if the curse will not spread, does it mean that the person who opens the coffin is destined to acquire this curse, even if it is destroyed later, it will still affect some of them?"

Zhang Lin looked deeply at this young man, nodded approvingly, and said, "You are very smart. That is indeed the case. Whoever opens the coffin will be subject to this curse!"

"And this is different from the previous Corpse-Fragrant Konjac; there is no 'negative times negative equals positive' relationship."

Hearing this sentence, everyone in the Crescent Hotel was stunned. They didn't understand what Zhang Lin's purpose was in saying this right now; it seemed unrelated to this layer of the curse itself.

What is "negative times negative equals positive"?

Could it be that someone was hoping that after being poisoned, they would be subjected to this deadly poison, and then nothing would happen?

In fact, only two people understood Zhang Lin's purpose in saying this: one was Zhang Lin himself, and the other was Yang Lu in the Second Archaeological Team.

This sentence of his was transmitted separately to Yang Lu. To everyone else, it was indeed idle chatter. However, no matter how much they over-associated, they would never know that Yang Lu herself had already been cursed.

He just wanted to tell Yang Lu not to be obsessed with those things, because the curse within her body could not form a counter-relationship with the current curse set by the Queen of Jingjue.

That is to say, even if she opened the coffin, the corresponding curse would not worsen, nor would it disappear; it would still remain there.

Unless Yang Lu found the Dust-Suppressing Bead and lifted the corresponding curse.

And finding the Dust-Suppressing Bead was not the final path. She needed to master the method of using the Dust-Suppressing Bead. At the moment, Zhang Lin hadn't told her how rugged the path ahead was.

Zhang Lin knew that some things needed to be done step by step. Regarding the method of using the Dust-Suppressing Bead, Zhang Lin was naturally clear; it required a specific environment, and even the location was specific.

Including the time, which was also very special. In this concept, it meant that it wasn't that you could directly lift the curse after finding the Dust-Suppressing Bead.

Or swallow the Dust-Suppressing Bead whole and then be fine; that was absolutely impossible.

Things were never that simple; it was just that Zhang Lin hadn't told Yang Lu the full picture of everything yet.

Under this premise, letting Yang Lu move forward step by step and finally accepting that result would be easier.

If Zhang Lin had told her everything before this, how difficult the process was, even someone with the best psychological quality would feel a trace of exhaustion.

That's right, some things are just like that.

In a process that is too complex, if you understand it completely before doing it, that sense of powerlessness will quickly surge into your heart.

Only by pursuing it bit by bit and lifting the veil step by step is it the best way.

And the people listening to Zhang Lin say this, including those watching the live stream, swallowed subconsciously.

In fact, before Zhang Lin announced this answer, everyone already had guesses in their hearts.

Since Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi on the Second Archaeological Team's side could roughly realize it, they naturally could too.

The key was that this was opening the coffin with their lives, which once again plunged them into intense discussion.

That was, is it worth it to risk one's own life to open that coffin?

But every time this happened, there were always those who thought very one-sidedly. A middle-aged man at the Crescent Hotel raised his hand and asked, "Mr. Zhang, do you think this kind of curse could bring disguised immortality like the Corpse Beetle Pill, or turn people into monsters?"

Hearing this question, Zhang Lin smiled helplessly and said, "A question like yours is just as I said just now: you are thinking too far ahead. Don't connect everything to these messy things."

"The Corpse Beetle Pill is the Corpse Beetle Pill, and the curse is the curse. Have you ever seen a poisoned person gain immortality? And his kind of poison is not corpse poison; it won't turn into any kind of monster."

"It will only cause the blood to coagulate bit by bit, and the age will be fixed at about 40 years old. That's about it. For those with good physical strength and strong physical quality, living to 50 is no problem, but going any higher is absolutely impossible."

Zhang Lin's words could be considered as revealing the final answer to this curse!

At this moment, Zhang Lin told these people the most realistic method: don't hold onto those unrealistic fantasies. Perhaps this middle-aged man was also sent by some organization. ===== CHAPTER 1077 =====
