Chapter 1078: No need to fight! Three people must be together!

This is precisely the point Wang Canghai utilized. Zhang Lin understood very well that it was precisely people like Wang Canghai who were more likely to obtain immortality!

The reason is none other than this: such people are smart and knowledgeable!

Many lines of thought have already reached a limit, and they understand what the weaknesses of emperors are, constantly lobbying them through these weaknesses.

Wang Canghai naturally gets whatever he wants; he can completely use the methods of these emperors as his own bargaining chips!

Most importantly, these emperors still foolishly believe that Wang Canghai is helping them obtain immortality!

Even if the Queen Mother of the West researched the Corpse Beetle Pill and finally took it,

Wang Canghai knew that the thing was not perfect at all, and he disdained to take it.

The price the Queen Mother of the West paid was very likely to be staying in a certain space for a thousand years to obtain immortality in the true sense.

Wang Canghai would not do such a thing as being imprisoned for a thousand years. If one could only stay in one place after obtaining immortality,

then for a person like him, it would truly have no meaning.

Wang Canghai was a proud person in the absolute sense. His pride did not allow him to accept such failed products; otherwise, he would not have conducted research on sea monkeys, forbidden women, and so on.

And improving them, even regarding the final mutation, all these numerous situations could verify how proud Wang Canghai was.

This is also why Zhang Lin wanted to see this person; he especially wanted to know what kind of reaction such a person would have if his pride were truly shattered.

And at this moment, Zhang Lin naturally had such confidence.

At this moment, no matter what Zhang Lin was thinking, the barrage was still fermenting that previous matter, or the previous topic.

【Do you think it's really worth it to use your life to open the coffin?】

【You're wrong. It's not a question of whether to open the coffin or not, but whether you can get out.】

【That's right, Mr. Zhang already said before that to get out, one must open the coffin.】

【Is it really like that? This matter was said by Mr. Zhang from the side.】

【I believe that as long as Mr. Zhang hasn't been certain about something, it's not 100%.】

【Does it still need Mr. Zhang's special emphasis? Isn't what he just said also this situation?】

【If there were a one-in-ten-thousand chance of getting out without opening the coffin, Mr. Zhang would definitely have said so.】

【Although Mr. Zhang is a storyteller, he never belittles life. I completely believe this point.】

At the Crescent Hotel, someone couldn't wait. Seeing Zhang Lin seem to have broken free from his own train of thought, they hurriedly raised their hand and asked, "Mr. Zhang, is it possible for them to get out without opening the coffin?"

Hearing this, Zhang Lin shook his head immediately and said, "If such a possibility existed, then I would absolutely not let them touch the coffin."

This time Zhang Lin didn't play coy; he was speaking the complete truth.

Even out of consideration for Yang Lu's side, he would do the same.

Even saying that Yang Lu could go back later and open that coffin according to his method.

And at this moment, after this news was transmitted to the Second Archaeological Team, Yang Lu's brows were tightly locked.

She understood that Zhang Lin had already given the most accurate answer to the question she wanted to ask.

Zhang Lin's meaning was very clear: wanting to open the coffin, relying on Yang Lu alone was definitely not going to work.

Then how many people were needed?

Yang Lu thought of those three bronze badges. Just as she had figured out, the three bronze badges were naturally in three positions.

It was very likely that, just like the tomb-guarding beasts, they needed to open the coffin synchronously.

And in this synchronization process, there could absolutely be no mistakes. So, the moment the coffin was opened, or when it was being raised, that result was already destined.

They would all be imposed with that kind of curse; there was absolutely no possibility of escape.

Thinking of this, Yang Lu couldn't help but feel a sense of shame.

At this moment, only hearing Yang Lu suddenly say, "I'm sorry everyone, it was me who brought you to the Ancient City of Jingjue. All of this is my responsibility."

No matter what the reason was, based on this premise, Yang Lu was full of apologies. She understood that the curse imposed on these few people might not be as severe as her own.

However, they would probably have to pursue it bitterly for the rest of their lives, finding the way to lift the curse within their lifetime. Now, it was impossible for Yang Lu not to take them on the path ahead.

Because Yang Lu's path ahead must have something to do with the Dust-Suppressing Bead. She didn't know what was hidden in the coffin, or whether it had a corresponding relationship with the path she was about to take.

However, as long as Zhang Lin said so, it must be true. So no matter what was discovered, she had to ask Zhang Lin; she definitely wouldn't be able to understand it herself.

Even if the Dust-Suppressing Bead were right there, Yang Lu wouldn't know how to use it to lift her own curse.

Not to mention that Yang Lu didn't hold such naive hope!

Even if she didn't know at the time that the Ancient City of Jingjue had a relationship with Wang Canghai himself and that he had been to the Ancient City of Jingjue, Yang Lu thought so in her heart.

After hearing Yang Lu say these things, Wang Kaixuan grinned and said indifferently, "Team Leader Yang, you underestimate people too much. I, Old Wang, am not a person afraid of death."

Hu Bayi also nodded heavily at this moment and said immediately, "Team Leader Yang, someone has already sacrificed before. For this noble ideal, we don't begrudge our own lives."

Yang Lu's expression suddenly became calm. The next moment, she said leisurely, "Noble ideals are not wrong, but don't cast aside reality. Now you should understand a concept: in a moment, two people are destined to open the coffin with me."

Hearing this sentence, Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but be stunned, and then he said without hesitation, "Two people? Team Leader Yang, why two people?"

Hu Bayi walked over and slapped Wang Kaixuan on the back of the head without hesitation, then said, "Is there something wrong with your brain? Since there are three bronze badges, it must be three people opening it synchronously. Think about everything we experienced at the broken bridge."

Wang Kaixuan scratched his head and thought seriously. A flash of light immediately crossed his eyes; he seemed to understand something.

When they were on the broken bridge, Zhang Lin said that the bronze badges of those three tomb-guarding beasts must be picked up synchronously; even if they were separated by more than two seconds, it would cause the suspension bridge to collapse faster.

Under this premise, it seemed that opening the coffin was the same.

They didn't know where the three keys were inserted, but everyone paid attention to the knobs on the bronze badges. In their view, it should be a corresponding knob structure.

Inserting the bronze badges into the grooves on the Queen of Jingjue's coffin and rotating them would open it.

This should be the same method as the one taken from the tomb-guarding beasts, which was already a recognized answer.
