Chapter 2005: Three bows and nine kowtows? Very pious indeed!
But when she looked up, the two were already on the rafters. Perhaps it was because the timing of the other party's entry was too coincidental.
Hu Bayi was sitting on the rafters, while Wang Kaixuan was hanging on a pillar like an old tree with deep roots, missing a step.
Yang Lu shook her head helplessly. At this moment, the two gestured to Yang Lu, and Yang Lu waved her hand at them.
They meant whether to act now, but Yang Lu stopped them.
It had already reached this point, so they might as well see what exactly this A Dong wanted to do, and then it wouldn't be too late to act.
Yang Lu was now worried about the situation inside the door, and if this A Dong was allowed to take the Buddha statue away, what would happen next would really exceed the range that the second archaeological team could bear. What should they do then?
However, this thought only stayed in Yang Lu's mind for a moment, and then it dissipated on its own. Perhaps for Yang Lu, this kind of worry was essentially superfluous and meaningless.
Since that was the case, she simply stopped thinking about these things.
The next moment, this A Dong arrived in the main hall, and then knelt on both knees, facing that door. She didn't know if he was looking at the Buddha statue that had been sealed off, or the evil ghost Ake mentioned behind the door.
Anyway, at this moment, he seemed very pious. If someone didn't know, they would really think he was a Buddhist. But then, the words A Dong said exposed all his thoughts.
"Buddha bless me, I have old parents and young children, I'm counting on this deal..."
The follow-up was all similar words. Based on such words, A Dong's purpose was very clear.
Wang Kaixuan's judgment at the beginning was correct; he was aiming for the golden Buddha. In fact, this matter was not surprising to anyone.
Most of Mr. Ming's group showed their greed, because such greed made it not strange for them to do anything regarding the treasures that appeared here later.
After solemn three bows and nine kowtows, A Dong muttered and came to the wall opening that had been sealed off earlier.
Sealing the wall was something Yang Lu had specifically instructed earlier. Since Ake had already said there was a problem inside, even if it was just an interlayer, this cave-style temple had to be sealed.
Yang Lu was afraid that some accident would happen while they were camping. In fact, from a realistic point of view, they could leave here now, after all, they had already found the Gularo Silver Eye.
Perhaps Yang Lu also guessed what Zhang Lin would specifically say. At the moment, if Zhang Lin were in charge of the aftermath, he would definitely suggest they leave.
Since this was determined, even if it was just a guess in her heart, Yang Lu would follow this guess to continue subsequent matters.
The sealed wall did not have stones bonded with cement, so it was pushed open very easily, and that golden Buddha was once again presented to everyone.
A Dong was still muttering about Buddha's blessing earlier, but the moment he saw the golden Buddha, he showed even more greed than the look in Mr. Ming's eyes at the beginning. Immediately, A Dong didn't care about those circumstances and went up to grab the golden Buddha directly.
Yang Lu had wanted to go over directly, but after taking two steps forward, she subconsciously stopped again. It was impossible not to be curious about what was behind the door.
Even if the things behind this door essentially wouldn't bring any help to the path they had to take later, just this curiosity alone was enough for Yang Lu to make this choice.
There was another point, which was that this place had already become a forbidden area in Chuanzang.
It was because this was where the Samsara Temple was located. But Yang Lu knew that essentially, the reason for this must be what was hidden behind that door. She didn't believe the saying that it was like hell or something.
She concluded that even if the Samsara Sect had really reached an unimaginable range, it was impossible to create something like an imaginary space like the Jingjue Queen. After all, there was only one such imaginary space in the whole world connected to the Ghost Cave.
Zhang Lin said at the beginning that the Ghost Cave was connected to the Asura Hell; this was just an appearance, and Zhang Lin also had such a statement in his subtext, that is, on the actual basis, the Ghost Cave was just connected to a space that they couldn't understand in their cognition.
Under this premise, all those ethereal thoughts were meaningless.
After seeing this clearly, Yang Lu wanted to see what was behind it even more. Another point was that if this A Dong did such a thing.
It could also be considered as getting a handle on Mr. Ming's group. Although this Mr. Ming had just been traveling with them, it had only been a few hours.
But everyone in the second archaeological team saw that Mr. Ming was a very shameless person. Even in a situation where he was about to tear his face with the other party, Mr. Ming could still shamelessly come up to smooth things over. This was something Yang Lu hated very much, but she couldn't say anything too excessive.
Because even if they guessed that Mr. Ming's story about looking for his godfather was just a facade used to deceive the second archaeological team, from a realistic point of view, they couldn't expose this matter because there was no concrete evidence.
But if this A Dong really took action, even if concrete evidence was caught, Mr. Ming would be more honest even if he followed the second archaeological team led by Yang Lu later.
In fact, at this time, Yang Lu could completely "slaughter the donkey after the millstone is used," and let Mr. Ming's group stop following her.
Because the scriptures in their hands were useless. But for one thing, it was during a live stream. Even those watching the live stream concluded that Mr. Ming was a despicable villain. Under this premise, they wouldn't mind Yang Lu really doing this, and even the authorities might give Yang Lu corresponding suggestions.
Hoping Yang Lu could get rid of Mr. Ming's group quickly. After all, they now had to consider not only the road ahead but also the existence of the Wang family.
Maybe the Wang family would really arrive at some point, and at that time, the second archaeological team would only be more troubled. Taking this group of people was a burden. But Yang Lu was still a person who valued promises. Since the conditions had been negotiated earlier, she didn't want to be a fickle villain.
Moreover, Yang Lu still couldn't be one hundred percent sure that the scriptures were useless. Even if Zhang Lin boarded the Xinyue Hotel later and told them about this, Yang Lu probably wouldn't make a corresponding choice. This wasn't her being overly saintly, just a principle of doing things.
Of course, this principle couldn't escape another point, which was that if Mr. Ming's group courted death themselves, Yang Lu would absolutely not save them. This was also one of Yang Lu's principles.
