Chapter 1490: Arrows are coming! The Wang family hasn't arrived, but the villagers have!
He can completely use such matters to accomplish everything he wants to do afterward.
Looking at the current Wang Canghai, he is nothing more than an object being toyed with by Zhang Lin. Now that Zhang Lin has already figured out most of Wang Canghai's background, if all he can mobilize in the end are just the Wang family members,
then for Zhang Lin, it doesn't count for anything at all, and it can't even pose any threat.
The reason Zhang Lin arranged all of this and acted like nothing was wrong is also the decisive reason for this.
The next moment, Zhang Lin tapped his forehead lightly with his finger, as if he had remembered something, and asked: "I forgot, you went to see that Xue Long, right? What did he say?"
Wu Ya smiled helplessly. She thought to herself that it was impossible for Zhang Lin to have truly forgotten about this matter; otherwise, how could his brain hold so much knowledge about burials?
This just shows that his brain is definitely more developed than others.
And Wu Ya hurriedly said: "That Xue Long didn't say a word; he turned around and left."
Zhang Lin grinned and nodded slowly, saying: "He is still a smart person. Not bad. When he comes next time, I expect he might bring me a surprise, if he can still return alive."
Wu Ya was shocked upon hearing this. She could not imagine that Zhang Lin had already planned his strategy to this level, which meant that Xue Long must have understood Zhang Lin's words.
It was just that she still had deep confusion now. Originally, Wu Ya wanted to take the initiative to mention this question, but after thinking about it, she held back.
Wu Ya knew that mentioning it now would probably not be of any help to Mr. Zhang's overall plan. When Zhang Lin first made Wu Ya his assistant, he had told her:
Do not ask questions that shouldn't be asked, and do not say things that shouldn't be said. Regarding this point, Wu Ya did very well, so even though she wanted to seek that answer, she ultimately held back.
Looking at the Second Archaeological Team, they had already reached the vicinity of that stone. Everyone was just about to walk out of the cave when an arrow shot in from behind.
This was something no one had expected, but upon seeing this arrow, Ada was stunned.
He immediately said: "Not good, the tribal chief has brought people to chase us."
Their tribal chief, En Kuan, had always looked down on Ada. This was also because his son wanted to inherit the position of tribal chief.
Ada was the biggest obstacle to that. Under this premise, he naturally had to find ways to suppress this person as much as possible.
But three years ago, En Kuan found the best opportunity. In Ada's original village, he had the highest prestige besides En Kuan.
Basically, no matter what method En Kuan thought of, he could not stop Ada from inheriting the position of tribal chief, but he did not expect that Heaven would give him a chance.
Ada happened to be cursed, and he gradually magnified this matter. Based on this benchmark, these villagers naturally followed blindly and chose to ostracize Ada together.
Under these circumstances, Ada could no longer inherit the position of tribal chief, but En Kuan still did not want to let Ada go.
He was afraid that one day he would really make a comeback, and by then, his son would not be able to inherit the position of tribal chief so smoothly.
Ada recognized this arrow immediately; it was unique to their village.
Immediately, Ada looked behind him. Sure enough, En Kuan had already brought people to chase them, just a hundred meters away!
"Ada! You ungrateful thing!"
Ada turned his head and ignored this reprimand.
And Yang Lu immediately said: "Don't worry about them for now! Hurry up and go!"
She led the people and rode away. When they passed that stone earlier, they had already seen the exit ahead.
And En Kuan and his group happened to be at the place where the Second Archaeological Team first encountered those water-strider bees. Since the conditions were so convenient, Yang Lu simply left these water-strider bees and piranhas to deal with these twenty-some villagers.
This cannot be blamed on Yang Lu for being heartless; it can only be said that these villagers were truly seeking their own deaths. They had another choice, but they happened to chase them at this time.
Actually, Yang Lu was also very surprised that their reaction was so fast. Even if the mountain patrols discovered that Ada and his sister had disappeared, they shouldn't have directly associated it with this place.
That just shows that Yang Lu had underestimated the degree to which Ada was ostracized in his village. After she entered Ada's house, someone must have seen it.
Subsequently, they notified this tribal chief, En Kuan, and En Kuan should have immediately led people directly to Ada's house. After seeing they were not there, he thought that these people from the Second Archaeological Team wanted to enter the Insect Valley.
Actually, regardless of whether Yang Lu told these villagers the truth, or even if she had earnestly told them that she didn't go in for any so-called treasure, but just wanted to find the Dust-Exterminating Bead,
Yang Lu believed that just by relying on the ignorance that these villagers were born with, they would not trust this point.
Having figured this out, Yang Lu naturally no longer held onto that naive thought, so she now knew that any explanation was superfluous. Only when these villagers felt the danger here would they be alerted.
Although Wang Kaixuan was also running forward with them at this time, he still said: "Team Leader Yang, why don't you let me stay? I can deal with that few people by myself."
Although Ada had already shown his strength before, Wang Kaixuan directly held his military shovel horizontally. He felt that since Ada was the best and most powerful hunter among the villagers,
then it meant that the strength of the others was mostly mediocre. Now that he was directly facing Ada, he might be a match, and under these circumstances, Wang Kaixuan was confident he could fight twenty-some of them alone.
Although there was a suspicion of bragging, Hu Bayi didn't say anything this time; clearly, he thought the same in his heart.
Yang Lu, however, shook her head. At this moment, she couldn't help but glance at Ada, also understanding what kind of conflict the other party was carrying in his heart.
These were all his villagers. Even if you exclude their tribal chief En Kuan and his son, as well as those few absolute confidants, the others originally listened to him.
Although he didn't want to seize the power of the tribal chief, unfortunately, an innocent man is guilty of his own virtue. People with strong abilities in this day and age will always suffer such an end.
However, Ada never explained anything from beginning to end, and didn't even complain about En Kuan. In his view, as long as this tribal chief wholeheartedly led the villagers to continue moving forward and made the villagers' lives better,
then it was nothing to him, including the matter of his son becoming the tribal chief; he would even actively support it. But En Kuan never intended to let him go. Regarding all of this, Ada only felt helplessness in his heart.
