Chapter 2329: A scream comes! A clumsy play!

Once Mr. Zhang was brought out, Fatty would absolutely be obedient and no longer raise any other thoughts. If these things were just said by Wu Tianzhen, there was certainly a certain chance that Fatty would stop directly.

But from a realistic perspective, this chance was indeed not large. Fatty was the type who was stubborn. From this point of view, his personality was very, very similar to Wang Kaixuan of the Second Archaeological Team. As long as it was something he had determined, he would absolutely go ahead without hesitation or scruples.

But what was worth rejoicing about was that the Second Archaeological Team had Yang Lu and Hu Bayi, while the First Archaeological Team had Celestial Master Zhang and Wu Tianzhen, who could naturally stop Fatty's foolish thoughts.

But the most awkward thing, as Wu Tianzhen had mentioned before, was that Celestial Master Zhang simply wasn't there.

So Wu Tianzhen could only adopt a method of patient guidance, and he believed Fatty wasn't stupid, just unwilling to think. Once the pros and cons were made clear to him, Fatty would react immediately.

It was like this now. Seeing Fatty nod, Wu Tianzhen also subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. Just at this moment, a scream suddenly came from the tent outside.

Many people didn't pay attention to the First Archaeological Team's live broadcast, and quite a few people opened two pages at the same time, but the live broadcast screen on the First Archaeological Team's side had already been muted.

So there wasn't any barrage in the live broadcast room yet, but for Wu Tianzhen, he determined that this was instead a good thing.

At a time like this, getting too much attention would make them feel very uncomfortable. In fact, Wu Tianzhen wanted to find Wu Ya next to seek the other party's opinion.

After all, Zhang Lin might contact Wu Ya at any time to tell them what to do next. He didn't expect that immediately after, he would hear such a scream.

A flash of surprise appeared in both their eyes at the same time. Immediately after, they hurriedly stood up and left the tent. Looking into the distance, the scream wasn't made by their people, but by Wang Cang's people.

In fact, Wang Cang had also received the first-hand news at almost the same time. Since Su Nan had already said these words, Wang Cang had to know what the situation was on the Second Archaeological Team's side.

Wang Canghai also knew that the official side would definitely pass these words to the First Archaeological Team without any changes.

Since Wu Tianzhen thought of this, Wang Canghai couldn't sit and wait for death. The official side would pass the message to the First Archaeological Team, so Wang Canghai would pass this news to Wang Cang.

And Wang Cang made this choice the first moment he knew the news: sending someone to pull the chain of that statue.

Regarding the chain connected below, everyone had actually discovered it at the beginning. This was a very common piece of common sense regarding tombs; one could call it a "horse chain."

It was a chain essential for sealing a tomb or certain mechanisms at the beginning. Such things were also very taboo locally; ordinary people would definitely run away the moment they saw it and wouldn't touch it easily.

But one side was an archaeological team, and the other side was grave robbers; they definitely wouldn't have such taboos.

Furthermore, they were here originally to wait for Zhang Lin at the Crescent Hotel to give them the next clues. Since that was the case, they definitely didn't need to worry about these miscellaneous things.

Anyway, even if some monsters or ghosts really emerged from under this four-legged dragon statue, they would attack in a group at the first instance. Choosing to work in this line of business meant one couldn't worry about accidents.

And accidents or dangers were always synonymous with opportunities. If the tomb remained silent, it would instead be of no benefit to what they were going to do next.

Wu Tianzhen and Fatty originally thought such an accident had occurred, so they ran out quickly. They didn't expect that what they saw when they arrived outside was a scene that left them both baffled!

They saw Wang Cang punching and kicking one of his subordinates, and that person was wailing repeatedly, begging for mercy and to be let go.

But this play was acted out too clumsily; even those bookworms in the First Archaeological Team who were only responsible for research perceived that the situation was wrong at the first instance!

They were all shaking their heads constantly—it was truly a case where even dogs would shake their heads.

But a person like Wang Cang would absolutely not arrange such a fake play for no reason. Wu Tianzhen reacted almost instantly.

The reason the other party did this was to deliberately make him come out to see this scene, or rather, according to Wang Cang, they couldn't continue waiting anymore, but should take action directly.

Wu Tianzhen pondered it over and over; there were really only two choices now: either go up and ask what the situation was, or turn around and leave, and simply not pick up this matter at all.

But both choices had their awkward points. It had to be said that Wang Cang's method this time was quite ruthless.

Regardless of which one he chose, at least he could get some useful information from Wang Cang. If he chose to turn a blind eye, then the First Archaeological Team's intention would be very clear.

Who knows if they really had to continue waiting. If he went over to talk, even if they chose to take action before, Wang Cang would definitely use his own way to bring up some things the First Archaeological Team was wary of.

And then make it impossible for the First Archaeological Team to take action. Fortunately, Wu Tianzhen didn't have the idea of taking action directly at all, so he didn't think too much at this time and walked over directly. Just as he approached Wang Cang, the other party was still kicking his subordinate with effort.

Wu Tianzhen waved his hand and said with a smile: "Alright, aren't you deliberately wanting me to come out? No need to go to such great lengths; actually, you could just have someone pass a message."

"What's the meaning of acting out this play now? Provocation or are we going to fight directly?"

After hearing this sentence, Wang Cang indeed stopped. Afterward, he also kicked the chain on the ground that sealed the statue and the mechanism. Although this mechanism was only the simplest one,

and because of weathering for so many years, it had long since rotted, but at this moment, Wang Cang seemed to treat this chain as a breakthrough point.

Immediately after, he pointed at the chain and asked: "Team Leader Wu, you should be very clear about what this is, right?"

Wu Tianzhen didn't think the other party could come up with any more tricks, so he nodded along with the other party's words.

"Of course, just a horse chain, used for sealing the tunnel door. Put to the present, this thing has no other symbolism besides being taboo."

What Wu Tianzhen said was entirely the truth, and at this moment, regardless of what thoughts the other party held, he definitely adopted the most resolute attitude and would certainly not give the other party a chance to take advantage of the situation.

All the behaviors Su Nan showed on the Second Archaeological Team's side actually confirmed one point from the side: she ultimately still stood with Wang Cang.

Doing so much was just to help the other party out of a predicament. Under these circumstances, the First Archaeological Team also had a certain responsibility; they couldn't just let Wang Cang go like this.
