Chapter 2022: The opportunity you speak of! I have actually already given it!

"Or even just a promise, but reality is just like this. I know much more than you imagine, so some things don't need to be discussed. However, you can rest assured about one point: even if you are right in front of me, I don't want to hand you over to the authorities right now."

"All this has to wait for that time node to arrive. Just wait slowly. I believe that when that day truly arrives, you will understand even more how stupid your current thoughts and words are."

Facts proved that Wang Canghai had indeed adjusted his state well this time. At least when Zhang Lin said these words, Wang Canghai didn't get angry in front of Zhang Lin.

It was just like the emotions he kept on his face just now were not equivalent to the emotions in his heart. Perhaps for Wang Canghai, everything Zhang Lin said was within his expectations.

If Zhang Lin had truly appeared in a state of being very easy to talk to, and everything was extending along his own train of thought, then Wang Canghai would not have believed it instead.

Zhang Lin used this way to tell Wang Canghai again how stupid his previous thoughts were, and it could also be considered as giving Wang Canghai a reassurance.

At least at the current time node, it was like this. In fact, just after Zhang Lin said those words, Wang Canghai had already begun to doubt whether he could survive.

Originally, when Wang Canghai came here at the beginning, he carried extreme confidence, but now this confidence, although it hadn't vanished into thin air...

However, on any baseline, Wang Canghai didn't dare to speak so fully anymore. It was just that at this moment, Wang Canghai breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, he did this behavior quietly.

He didn't dare to have a feeling of being pardoned on the surface.

Wang Canghai thought to himself that even if he wanted to change the plan this time, there wouldn't be so many opportunities. He had thought that Zhang Lin would ask him about the situation of the personnel he sent out for the first and second archaeological teams at the end.

But now Wang Canghai could be considered to have received a final answer. Just as Zhang Lin walked to the door, Wang Canghai chased after him directly. Zhang Lin ignored the other party and continued to walk forward.

Wang Canghai caught up quickly and said: "Zhang Lin, if I am willing to tell you what happened in those hundred years, are you willing to stop? Just give me a chance."

After saying these words, Wang Canghai was full of a sense of twilight. The original Wang Canghai was absolutely in a state of not admitting old age, and he pursued immortality also to achieve this wish. From beginning to end, he firmly told himself in his heart that he would absolutely not grow old, or that aging itself was something left for others.

For him, immortality was everything. As long as he could obtain immortality, other things were not important. This was the idea Wang Canghai held. Unfortunately, because of Zhang Lin's appearance, many of Wang Canghai's ideas vanished into thin air.

At this moment, Wang Canghai was truly wanting to compromise using this way. He just wanted Zhang Lin to let him live. Although Wang Canghai used to try every means to maintain his attitude, after all, no matter how many times Zhang Lin won in front of him, ultimately, Zhang Lin was definitely a junior in terms of age.

But just when Zhang Lin said those words before, Wang Canghai felt like he was a transparent person. In fact, even if Zhang Lin already knew the things hidden in those hundred years...

Wang Canghai might not have been so surprised, but Zhang Lin saying this sentence basically already understood Wang Canghai's plans before and after, including where his retreat was.

This was the most difficult thing for Wang Canghai to accept.

And because such a retreat of his had already completed its planning, and it was something he had been laying out constantly over these three hundred years, under this premise, it was difficult for Wang Canghai to stop.

Perhaps if it were someone else who heard Zhang Lin's statement, they wouldn't feel too much. After all, Wang Canghai once had a laboratory in the Jingjue Ancient City, where he spent a long time. Based on this, isn't it a simple matter for Wang Canghai to find a tomb to stay in?

But even if others really heard it, what they heard was the surface layer, while what Wang Canghai understood more were the other meanings revealed in Zhang Lin's words.

And in this layer of meaning, Wang Canghai was very clear that the reason Zhang Lin would say this was to tell him from a fundamental sense that he knew all his plans by heart.

Based on this, the other party didn't need to hold onto those unrealistic fantasies to think about the next problems. This was what made Wang Canghai most panicked.

Based on this panic, Wang Canghai had to lower all his postures right now. Even if he had found Zhang Lin to discuss subsequent matters before, he was lowering his posture, but at this moment, Wang Canghai didn't cover it up at all and said these words to his face.

This meant that Wang Canghai had already put all his face under his own feet. Whether he stepped on it himself, or others stepped on it, or he let Zhang Lin tear it apart with his own hands, he didn't care.

Anyway, as long as he could exchange it for a satisfactory result in the end, it would be fine.

Zhang Lin looked at Wang Canghai deeply, then shook his head and said: "Actually, that phone call before was your last chance. If you were willing to let go according to what I said, perhaps you could have exchanged it for a way to live."

"And now, whether you admit it or not, what I said before, anyway, for me, the result is already destined. Still the same sentence: you won't have any trouble today. Perhaps at least until the first and second archaeological teams haven't finished exploring the next two tombs, you won't have any trouble."

"However, you can still pursue your path to becoming an immortal. I have already made it clear before: you will absolutely not succeed."

After saying this, Zhang Lin crossed the road directly and walked into the Xinyue Hotel.

And Wang Canghai was alone on the street. He had his hands in his pockets and looked very calm, but his heart was full of confusion.

The next moment, Wang Canghai rubbed his back molars fiercely. He looked at the place where Zhang Lin disappeared, his gaze always fixed on the gate of the Xinyue Hotel, and then Wang Canghai turned and plunged into the darkness.

Perhaps for Wang Canghai, Zhang Lin was right. Zhang Lin doing this was forcing him into a dead end. Only in a dead-end situation would the strongest power erupt.

Wang Canghai had never thought about truly burning his bridges before, and this definition lay in whether he would risk his life. Looking at it now, Zhang Lin had already spoken to this extent, so for Wang Canghai, even if he didn't want to risk his life, he had to do so.

This is the true meaning of having no other choice!
