Chapter 1112: Just being like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow

~6 min read 1,120 words

Wang Kaixuan probably can't stand any stimulation now, and Young Master Zhao has just recovered. Even if his heart has become tough, if one thing is repeated too many times, it is very likely to cause his mentality to completely lose balance in a short period of time. And the changes that come in this process of losing balance might be something everyone cannot accept.

Thinking of these, Yang Lu hurriedly said the next moment: "Step back, let's see the situation first!"

At this time, everyone at the Crescent Hotel was also stunned. They never expected that this kind of purple light still existed!

Even when that Corpse-Fragrant Konjac was above their heads before, such a purple light phenomenon didn't appear.

Wrapped in the Corpse-Fragrant Konjac, its own purple light had already faded, and everyone wasn't controlled by anything, but they subconsciously thought that this stone platform was equivalent to the stamen part of the Corpse-Fragrant Konjac itself.

And blooming within it, perhaps this hallucinogenic effect would become even stronger. If that were the case, everyone would be blind.

It's like having done thirty-six bows, just missing this last one!

If this last step wasn't done well, leading to the total annihilation of the army, then no one would accept it.

It wasn't just the official side; even these people watching the live stream hung their hearts up together.

They didn't know what kind of response to make next, and whether this response would be beneficial for everything that followed, or whether it would instead make them all fall into an bottomless abyss.

Regarding the Ghost Cave and everything else, it hadn't been explored particularly clearly, and there was also the imaginary space they created.

What would they experience in this imaginary space?

It was just like the things Yang Lu experienced in the mechanism of the Tomb of the Prince of Gumo; until now, they didn't know.

All unknown things are the most terrifying. Even the people watching the live stream had their spirits synchronized to create that sense of immersion, and at this time, they became nervous together, fearing that some abnormality would occur.

And whenever it reached this juncture, those smart people would understand the next changes by looking at Zhang Lin's expression, and what kind of crisis the Second Archaeological Team itself was facing.

If Zhang Lin was light and breezy, then it proved that everything was safe, and it was just that they thought too much, including the Second Archaeological Team thinking too much.

But if Zhang Lin's expression suddenly became serious, then it was an absolutely dangerous signal. In this danger, they had to think of a way to deal with it.

Even if Zhang Lin said it now, the official communication might not be able to be passed to the Second Archaeological Team so quickly, so sometimes they have to rely on themselves. This is the disadvantage brought about under Zhang Lin's guidance.

But taking a step back, if Zhang Lin didn't give them corresponding guidance, many times they wouldn't even be able to make a choice, just like the imaginary space they experienced behind the huge vines of the Corpse-Fragrant Konjac before.

That was their first contact with this space, and in this space, everyone lost their direction.

If it weren't for Zhang Lin giving them guidance in the shortest way, they still wouldn't be able to get out of there right now. This is certain.

Even if they hit the jackpot and walked the right road afterward, everything they are experiencing now, including the small Corpse-Fragrant Konjac they encountered at that time, all immersed in hallucinations, has become a matter of no choice. This is all Zhang Lin's credit.

If there are disadvantages, there must be advantages; many times it is just like this.

And right now at the Crescent Hotel, someone hurriedly asked: "Mr. Zhang, this purple light has appeared again, what does it mean? Could it be that the Corpse-Fragrant Konjac has made a comeback?"

Zhang Lin smiled calmly and said: "The Corpse-Fragrant Konjac doesn't need to make a comeback; it has always been there."

Zhang Lin's current words seem like nonsense, but those who can understand Zhang Lin's subtext will understand.

Just like what was said just now, if Zhang Lin uses this light and breezy tone, then it proves that there is nothing particularly big happening.

As long as they follow what Zhang Lin said with peace of mind, and then wait for the light fruit to appear slowly, that's fine.

There is no need to consider the rest of the things. Even if they think in that direction, it has no meaning. This is the right path.

And everything Zhang Lin said is the truth. This has long been recognized by everyone and cannot tolerate any intention of rebuttal from anyone.

Because all rebuttals are not valid at this juncture. Since they are not valid, what else is there to say?

At this time, the barrage was full of confusion.

【What does Mr. Zhang mean? Is there still something happening at this juncture?】

【You are stupid, Mr. Zhang's meaning is that it's definitely fine, the Corpse-Fragrant Konjac has always been there.】

【Then Mr. Zhang's subtext is that they might still be controlled?】

【Impossible, if that were really the case, Mr. Zhang would definitely explain it in advance.】

【What's wrong with you all? Isn't it just a touch of purple light? Are you all choosing to be like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow?】

【Yes, yes, everyone is a frightened bird now, and the Second Archaeological Team is the same.】

Regardless of what the barrage says, it actually cannot change the intention Zhang Lin wants to convey, or the emotions he wants to express afterward.

Their words actually don't have much effect, and the next moment, Zhang Lin said leisurely: "Have you heard a phrase? It's called 'being like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow'."

The person who sent that barrage before became active immediately. Of course, the next moment, he took on everyone's scolding.

Whenever Zhang Lin says a phrase corresponding to them, all the sense of honor rushes into their hearts at this time, and it also makes them choose to show off for the first time.

Just like someone at the Crescent Hotel answering Zhang Lin's question correctly or receiving Zhang Lin's praise, they would proudly scan the room, expressing to everyone how good their mood was at that time.

Or in that situation, what kind of glory they felt, and even in a very long stage of their future life, they would think that that moment was their most glorious. This is Zhang Lin's brilliance.
