Looking at the others, the bafflement in their eyes did not draw any further explanation from Wang Hu; perhaps in Wang Hu's mind, he had no desire to repeat himself—anyone with a brain should understand perfectly well what he was saying.

The next moment, Wang Hu returned to his seat and quietly waited for the news that the plane was taking off, while Wang Canghai on his side never once turned his head to look at them again.

For Wang Canghai, he had already thought through what came next with perfect clarity: these people had no choice whatsoever—they had to board the plane and head for Sichuan-Tibet.

Whether they had received an official order or Zhang Lin's order, it was all the same; since they wanted to seize this kind of opportunity, that meant their only choice from here on was to act according to the original plan.

If Mr. Wang, within the scope of this kind of command, was unable to chart them a new path, then this was even more so the case.

So Wang Canghai was not the least bit anxious; he only had to wait, then simply follow along with them, and in the end see whether they could find that entrance, and then take advantage of the moment to help him pry open a breach—at that point it would be a permanent solution. Wang Canghai understood that he ought to feel grateful at this moment.

Moreover, what he had done just now had mainly been a bit of alarming the grass and startling the snake, but judging by the other's reaction, within their understanding they simply did not mind this point at all, which also let Wang Canghai breathe a sigh of relief.

When Wang Canghai had previously wanted to head for Sichuan-Tibet and reach the Second Archaeological Team, he knew full well how difficult it was to enter the entire Kunlun Glacier, and right now he could not find a guide, could not find locals to help; even with money, he could not in a short time organize a team of his own.

And now he still had to reach the Second Archaeological Team's side before Zhang Lin boarded the New Moon Restaurant tomorrow, and carry out some interference—also in order to accomplish those things he had once wanted to do, including seizing the Muchen Zhu.

Right now Wang Canghai had also been constantly calculating the specific plans that followed, but the more concrete these plans became, the more disheartened he grew, not knowing how to take the first step in a short time.

Yet in Wang Canghai's understanding, once this first step was taken, everything that followed would be simplicity itself—he could simply continue along the previous route.

In fact, this was just like Su Nan: no matter whether she was a Wang family member, or however capable she was, relying on herself alone to enter the place where the Second Archaeological Team currently was at the very beginning would absolutely be a fantasy!

The landmarks given by the Gula Luo Silver Eye were each basically an entrance, but those entrances could not be excavated by oneself.

If he were to dig down shovelful by shovelful, and on top of a glacier no less, it would be a wonder if it didn't kill someone from exhaustion; therefore Wang Canghai had to find usable people, otherwise he could only resort to extreme measures.

Carrying a few bombs to blast open a gap, using an avalanche to forcefully shove himself straight into the tomb.

Of course, unless absolutely necessary, Wang Canghai would absolutely never do this, so before that Wang Canghai had been striving with all his might to find people who could be used.

He had even considered whether to find Mr. Wang first before all this, and discuss the situation afterward with him, but checking the time, it seemed there wasn't enough of it. Although relying on certain things passed down through the Wang family, even if he couldn't find Wang family members, this special existence that was Mr. Wang—he could find him at any time.

Presumably Mr. Wang did not know this point, just as if the other party had swallowed some kind of poison: if Wang Canghai followed the scent by his own method, no matter which corner of the world, he could find him.

Just like a hound, except the range within which a hound could search for such a scent was limited—but for Wang Canghai, this range was greatly expanded.

But now Wang Canghai no longer needed to worry over this matter; everything was laid out before his eyes. Wang Canghai's understanding was crystal clear: he only had to follow this group of Wang family people, for their goal was also to reach the Second Archaeological Team.

And before that, if they did not enter and instead arrived at the Kunlun Glacier, at the entrance designated by the Gula Luo Silver Eye—that place was certainly not a departure hall.

Without so many people watching, at that moment all the initiative would truly fall into Wang Canghai's hands; he would not need to worry about complications, nor consider anyone else's feelings, nor even fret over Zhang Lin learning of this matter and thereby intervening.

He only had to accomplish what he wanted to do—even forcibly take control of this squad. Since he had already found the leader of this squad, namely that Wang Hu, through his observation Wang Hu indeed held a certain prestige within the squad.

But now the true elites of Wang Jie's squad were basically all but dead—for instance, that Leng Feng and Wang Cen; and now Wang Cen also stood on Zhang Lin's side, so at present this Wang Hu was nothing more than an extra, a role Wang Canghai simply did not need to take too seriously.

When the time came, if this group of Wang family people now refused to listen to him and were unwilling to help him, then Wang Canghai would first take out this Wang Hu; on the basis of a leaderless flock, Wang Canghai's seizing of this squad's command would become all the simpler.

Unless all of this was still a stratagem arranged by Zhang Lin, every bit of it a trap.

Designed to lure him into that pit—but in Wang Canghai's view, this was absolutely impossible. Perhaps in the past, Wang Canghai would have used such an understanding to think about the problems ahead, but judging from the current situation, Wang Canghai would absolutely not harbor such thoughts.

At this moment, as Wang Canghai thought and thought, he breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately shifted his attention to the Second Archaeological Team's livestream.

He found that everyone in the Second Archaeological Team was indeed in a state of rest at this moment, apart from a few on night watch, and Wang Canghai shook his head in disappointment.

He had expected the people of the Second Archaeological Team to continue their discussion, and at the same time make a constructive proposal for what came next, but he had not expected them to simply lie flat, as if they did not care about anything that happened afterward.

And all these matters were being left for Zhang Lin to resolve for them—this was also one of the reasons for Wang Canghai's helplessness, but this time his judgment was wildly off the mark.
