Chapter 1519

But since Wang Canghai was behind, and the Wang family was still in the Southern Frontier Insect Valley wanting to obtain the Muchen Bead, under this premise, Zhang Lin naturally would not mention this matter.

Only after the Second Archaeological Team got the Muchen Bead would he say the corresponding answer; this was unlike the puzzles in the Ancient City of Jingjue and the Dragon Ridge Labyrinth before, which Zhang Lin could speak out casually.

Regarding this kind of thing, if Zhang Lin said it, then for Wang Canghai, it would be like adding wings to a tiger, because that Cloud Peak Heavenly Palace itself was built by Wang Canghai.

And the E'luohai City that the Second Archaeological Team was going to head to next was in the same area as the Cloud Peak Heavenly Palace, which led to Wang Canghai having a natural advantage.

He could even command his own people to head directly there; if the instrument that lifted the curse was destroyed directly in E'luohai City.

Even if they got the Muchen Bead, they wouldn't be able to find a second location to lift the curse; this was what Zhang Lin was most worried about.

Along the way, with all kinds of twists and turns, in the end, they did not get the thing they wanted to get, or the answer; he felt sorry for the Second Archaeological Team.

And in this, Zhang Lin also carried a certain responsibility more or less; even if everyone did not think he had such responsibility, Zhang Lin still felt apologetic to Yang Lu.

Therefore, he absolutely had to arrange all the instructions properly now; if it was just to gain gimmicks or want to show off that he knew a lot, and directly pass on the answer of E'luohai City.

Then after Wang Canghai understood all this, he would actually win a lot of time for the Second Archaeological Team now.

Wang Canghai might even let the Wang family stop chasing the Second Archaeological Team directly, make a move of drawing the salary from the bottom of the pot, and send people to E'luohai City in advance.

Just as Zhang Lin thought before, after completing some destruction to E'luohai City, the Second Archaeological Team would find nothing when they headed there.

At that time, as long as Wang Canghai was still alive, as long as he still had the Wang family members he could dispatch, and as long as the Muchen Bead was not destroyed, he would have plenty of time to obtain the Muchen Bead.

Now for Wang Canghai, the reason why time was tight was all because the Second Archaeological Team wanted to lift the curse, and once the curse was lifted, the Muchen Bead would disappear; although Zhang Lin was deliberately hiding this matter.

But he believed that Wang Canghai could definitely guess this point too.

Fortunately, Zhang Lin was good at guiding such a rhythm; after hearing that they were going to find the next tomb, everyone raised their spirits to twelve points.

The purpose of this action was to find King Xian's tomb, but through Zhang Lin's meaning, they could also understand that the answer revealed in Zhang Lin's words was that King Xian's tomb was King Xian's tomb, and the Ancient Dian Kingdom was the Ancient Dian Kingdom.

Although these two were within the same range, the things they contained were very extensive.

It was possible that King Xian's tomb was just a palm-sized place, but the ruins of the Ancient Dian Kingdom were incomparably huge; they absolutely could not search blindly in the Insect Valley.

At the next moment, Zhang Lin said slowly, "Now for the Second Archaeological Team, the most important thing is the compass in Young Master Zhao's hand."

"As long as you walk according to the instructions of the compass and find a stone circle, the magnetic field of the compass will be lost there, and they will soon approach the initial range of the Ancient Dian Kingdom; when entering the range of the Ancient Dian Kingdom, searching for King Xian's tomb will be twice the result with half the effort; otherwise, you can only walk blindly now."

Hearing the word "compass" again, including the things described before.

The bullet comments began to discuss it.

【Sure enough! The compass is a divine artifact; it is like this whether in the Ancient City of Jingjue or here!】

【The compass is a divine artifact, that's right, but it depends on who uses it; think about the painful price Young Master Zhao paid before!】

【Don't always look at the past; look at people with old eyes; now Young Master Zhao is also a man.】

【He is a man, that's right, but he will be busy next.】

【It's not easier here than in the Ancient City of Jingjue.】

【Why haven't the pursuers appeared yet? According to the time calculation, they should have arrived.】

【Can you shut your mouth? Isn't it good that the pursuers haven't arrived?】

【Not good; what he said is indeed reasonable; now the pursuers haven't arrived; perhaps they are hiding in some place, planning and then moving, just to suddenly launch a fatal blow.】

In fact, this bullet comment hit the core point.

The reason why Zhang Lin did not mention this matter at the Crescent Hotel was also because he did not want to pass this information to Wang Canghai; although he saw through all this, some things still could not be said.

Regarding the tomb itself, regarding E'luohai City, and even regarding the subsequent plans of the Wang family, even if he guessed it, he could not pass it on through intuitive words.

If Zhang Lin spoke very directly and let Yang Lu take some plan, then for those Wang family members, it was also a lesson from the past.

They could likewise make other responses through these plans.

The reason why Zhang Lin was so powerful and respected by so many people was precisely because he could be in such an extreme situation, even if he had to make all the words public, and even if he did not contact the official side and Yang Lu privately.

He could directly let the Second Archaeological Team open up all the awkward situations in this situation.

They did not need to worry about the Wang family; this might also come from the tacit understanding between Zhang Lin and Yang Lu across the air; just like now, Yang Lu had already understood what Zhang Lin said; the reason why he mentioned the compass was not necessarily because the compass was needed.

It was precisely because she had pursuers behind her; perhaps these pursuers had not followed to this position yet.

If they did not have the same compass in their hands, they would not be able to continue moving forward according to such instructions.

And as long as Yang Lu led people to continue on their way, in this situation, they could shake off the pursuers behind them by a long distance; having figured this out, Yang Lu took out the compass immediately.

She had already confiscated Young Master Zhao's compass before, at the location of the Prince of Gumo's prison cell.

Along the way, she even forgot about this thing.

This was bought by Young Master Zhao at a high price; Yang Lu did not want to take it as her own, just thinking of returning it to Young Master Zhao after going out.

And now she thought of this compass again; looking at the pointer of the compass, Yang Lu fell into deep thought.

The pointer was indeed pointing in a fixed direction; at this time, through everything Zhang Lin had told her before, and the things stated at the Crescent Hotel.

She probably also understood the subtext Zhang Lin wanted to express; since he let a person who did not understand the business and could not use a compass look at the positioning of the compass and walk.
