Chapter 2004: Taking the Buddha statue means breaking the seal!?

~7 min read 1,237 words

The two nodded subconsciously. They had explored the path before, and everything had basically been scouted out, so they naturally understood what Yang Lu wanted to ask at this moment, but then the two were stunned.

The next moment, Yang Lu said again, "You two take that path and get there ahead of time, I will follow him."

The two looked at each other and nodded without hesitation, heading directly in another direction.

Yang Lu had been following this person. A Dong's footsteps were indeed very slow, as if he was afraid of something. Yang Lu also realized his specific worries; perhaps all of this stemmed from the fact that this person was truly too timid.

However, as Yang Lu followed, she shook her head helplessly, thinking to herself that it was truly ridiculous for someone so timid to do such a thing. Fortunately, at this moment, they couldn't see the live stream situation at their current location.

The people in the live stream room had already seen the situation through the lens. Everyone was full of disdain for this A Dong. Greed was normal in their view, or rather, many people would feel greed when seeing that kind of golden Buddha.

However, just as Yang Lu thought, one shouldn't be so timid.

【This A Dong is really a coward! Disgraceful!】

【Don't talk about others, I bet you'd be even more cowardly than him if you got there.】

【Damn it! If I got there, I definitely wouldn't be so greedy; just thinking about it is fucking scary.】

【That golden Buddha could support you for a dozen lifetimes, much better than buying a lottery ticket.】

【Don't speak so definitively if you haven't been there. Let's make a bet; I'll buy a plane ticket and fly there tomorrow.】

【Fine, go if you want, anyway I'm not going.】

【Stop talking nonsense, actually I'm also curious about what's hidden behind that door.】

This sentence hit the nail on the head. Many people thought that Yang Lu not stopping the other party was because Yang Lu wanted someone to open that door at this moment to see what was behind it.

And then they could make a corresponding judgment.

The reason Yang Lu didn't do that before was partly out of caution, and partly because of Ake's presence, but now the situation had changed.

If this door wasn't opened by Yang Lu herself, then there was no problem. In fact, on a certain level, Yang Lu was also quite dark-bellied.

However, this was a most basic tactic. Regarding this, Zhang Lin just smiled and nodded, and afterward, he directly turned off the live stream. What would happen was already within Zhang Lin's expectations.

This door would inevitably be opened. Now was not the time to continue watching the live stream; he had to prepare and then hurry to the Xinyue Hotel.

After all, in less than two hours, he had to board the Xinyue Hotel, and that was also when he would uncover the puzzles encountered by the first and second archaeological teams during this period.

Wang Canghai, on the other hand, had been immersed in previous confusion. When Yang Lu discovered the Gularo Silver Eye, Wang Canghai actually disdained it.

If the Gularo Silver Eye referred only to a map, Zhang Lin had no need to speak obscurely at the beginning.

Because it was not during a live stream, Wang Canghai was certain that this matter was definitely told to them by Zhang Lin. Relying on themselves, it was impossible for them to know; after all, the scriptures were not in their hands before.

The reason Wang Canghai thought this way was that he was convinced that even if Zhang Lin could calculate everything, he couldn't calculate that a group of guys similar to tomb raiders would suddenly appear, then take the scriptures, thereby allowing the second archaeological team to find this map.

Under this premise, Wang Canghai had an instinctive suspicion about this matter. Based on such suspicion, Wang Canghai concluded that perhaps this Gularo Silver Eye had other ways of existing.

However, to put it in the most straightforward words, Wang Canghai was already overthinking it. Some things should have been understood in a complex way, but Wang Canghai deliberately simplified them.

But for those things that must be understood in a simplified way, Wang Canghai deliberately complicated them.

From this perspective, if he didn't lose in the end, who would?

Thinking back and forth, Wang Canghai still didn't understand the core meaning. The reason he had his current thoughts was also because he was worried that Zhang Lin would really combine the first and second archaeological teams at some point in the future.

That is to say, although the two archaeological teams were thousands of miles apart, if Zhang Lin really had such ability, or if he used means that Wang Canghai couldn't understand to potentially unite the two archaeological teams.

Then no matter how many Wang family members he sent later, it would be meaningless. He had already lost a large number of men targeting the second archaeological team to get the Dust-Bead.

One Yang Lu was already hard enough to deal with, plus the trio of the first archaeological team; Wang Canghai knew that under such circumstances, he would have even fewer choices.

So Wang Canghai didn't want to see such a situation happen. At this time, he had to think more than others. However, no matter how much he thought, all of this would eventually be a bubble, because for things that didn't exist, no matter how much he thought, there would be no result.

Looking back at the second archaeological team at this moment, this A Dong finally entered the Samsara Temple. At first, he walked slowly, and Yang Lu hadn't realized what this person's behavior meant.

But later she found that he was always pressing his palms together, bowing left and right, as if performing some kind of ritual. This behavior couldn't help but make Yang Lu laugh. She also understood that he must have been influenced by Ake, and that this person's going there wasn't necessarily to open the door, but definitely aimed at the Buddha statue itself.

Based on this, this was the reason for his behavior.

However, in Yang Lu's view, there was no difference between the two. She had a premonition in the dark that if that Buddha statue was really taken down, it would be like breaking some kind of seal.

This was also a reminder given to her by Ake's previous words; after all, the second archaeological team had experienced too many similar things before.

Every time they uncovered the so-called mysterious veil of some things, some new things would always be derived. This was the so-called mechanism.

And the definition of the mechanism itself was also different, so Yang Lu knew very well that this person would probably be in bad luck later.

But on any basis, Yang Lu was clear that she had no obligation to save the other party. Yang Lu was just watching a show now.

She didn't have the interest of being compassionate; moreover, this person was clearly taking things to the extreme because of greed. To put it bluntly, if he was courting death, no one wanted to stop him.

A Dong walked into the hall, and Yang Lu subconsciously looked for Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan from a distance.
