Chapter 2653: It's just the tip of the iceberg! Don't be happy too early!

But he hadn't thought before that Zhang Lin would be so tough. When putting forward that condition, Wang Wang Canghai felt he had an 80% chance of success.

That is to say, he determined that Zhang Lin would agree to all his requests, but it happened that Zhang Lin went in the opposite direction, or rather, from the beginning when Zhang Lin established this cognition, he hadn't left any chance for Wang Wang Canghai.

And in the whole process, Zhang Lin did exactly this. At the same time, in one of the calls, Zhang Lin told Wang Wang Canghai quite bluntly that even if he wanted to know those secrets, he could explore them himself, rather than relying on him to solve anything. Zhang Lin's thinking on this point was very firm.

So some things didn't bother Wang Wang Canghai. At the same time, these current matters were also answers Zhang Lin found according to his own guesses. Of course, whether this answer was correct or not still had to be explored or judged through Wang Wang Canghai's reaction.

Wang Wang Canghai desperately suppressed the emotions that were about to collapse. Therefore, the things Zhang Lin just said had no influence on him heading to the second archaeological team.

But this statement also directly cut off his retreat from the side. This wasn't the result Wang Wang Canghai wanted to see, but Zhang Lin seemed to deliberately want him to have no way out.

But having said that, Wang Wang Canghai really didn't understand why Zhang Lin wanted to make such a choice. In his view, didn't this approach just force him to jump over the wall in a hurry?

He had told Zhang Lin countless times before that he wanted to burn the boats and break the cauldrons, break the jar, and ignore everything, just wanting to kill Zhang Lin, or kill the people he cared about around him. That would be enough for him.

However, Wang Wang Canghai himself understood that most of those words were angry words. He didn't think so in his heart. No one wanted to die, especially someone like him who had lived for more than three hundred years, even more so not wanting to end up with his head and body separated. The so-called fish dying and the net breaking was largely to scare Zhang Lin.

Wang Wang Canghai thought to himself: did Zhang Lin take it seriously?

That would be bad. In Wang Wang Canghai's own thinking, Zhang Lin didn't take him seriously at all. Based on this, he could do things more wantonly. At the same time, Wang Wang Canghai also saw that the other party had concerns. If he killed him, then the secret of the King of Ten Thousand Slaves might be sealed forever.

Even if the King of Ten Thousand Slaves came out himself, he wouldn't talk about these with Zhang Lin. Wang Wang Canghai was more certain of this than anyone else.

Precisely because he was certain of these matters, Wang Wang Canghai was so fearless. However, according to what Zhang Lin said, Wang Wang Canghai realized that his cognition was completely wrong.

Because Zhang Lin seemed to have reacted to everything before this, and at the beginning, told the other party not to hold himself in high regard, thinking that he could threaten himself by taking the King of Ten Thousand Slaves.

Because Zhang Lin would guess based on his own ability, and now was the time to verify this guess. Through Wang Wang Canghai's state, Zhang Lin knew that he had guessed 80-90%.

Although all of this might just be a very simple part, as long as he could guess a part of it, the influence on subsequent matters was also very far-reaching. This was much better than being blind and not guessing anything. Since that was the case, Zhang Lin wouldn't give up this method of inference.

Wang Wang Canghai wanted to tell Zhang Lin directly that his guess was simply too off-base, but after just a moment, he shook his head to himself.

Thinking to himself that if that were the case, it would become "there are no three hundred taels of silver buried here." That is to say, now he had to admit everything Zhang Lin said to find a chance to turn the tables.

At this moment, Wang Wang Canghai was crying bitterly in his heart. Still the same sentence: he felt that he had never fallen into such a passive situation in his life. A few hundred years ago, he was always high above. Unexpectedly, three hundred years later, he seemed to have experienced all the things he hadn't experienced before.

This was a result Wang Wang Canghai didn't dare to think about at the beginning. This matter also proved from the side that if a person is high above for too long, he will forget his original intention or original heart. When standing in the clouds, forgetting what the ground is like, and falling down in the end, he will be worse than others.

Using such a method to interpret the current Wang Wang Canghai couldn't be more appropriate. But if he had a trace of alertness, he couldn't have fallen to this point today. Even before this, Zhang Lin had reminded the other party countless times that he absolutely couldn't think about problems in this way, but Wang Wang Canghai didn't appreciate it.

Since that was the case, Zhang Lin simply let the other party know what kind of range he had guessed.

The next moment, Wang Wang Canghai said firmly: "Zhang Lin, I admit that you are really smart, and your analytical ability is also very strong, but I can tell you very directly: the things you guessed are indeed correct, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. If you count on using a lead to deceive me into saying everything that follows, then you have thought too much."

Zhang Lin laughed after hearing this, and then shook his head and said: "It's you who thought too much. I never thought about knowing anything from you, at least not now! Since you are so obsessed, then continue to walk on. I understand that you are also struggling now whether to focus on the Dust-Suppressing Pearl or use various methods to retaliate against me. This choice is still very difficult for you to make a trade-off."

Wang Wang Canghai narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, thinking in his heart that it was just across the phone. If Zhang Lin were in front of him at this time, then he would definitely tear the other party apart.

Even if he couldn't beat him, he would make a final fight, because Wang Wang Canghai had never felt such strong pressure in his life. Usually, it was him using various methods to oppress others.

Unexpectedly, the positions were swapped today. Wang Wang Canghai was surprised or couldn't believe that all this was true because the gap between this and everything he usually encountered was simply too big. Under this premise, Wang Wang Canghai had never been willing to accept reality.

But in the end, facts also proved that everything was already nailed down, and he couldn't help but accept it. Wang Wang Canghai was trying hard to accept this, but he didn't expect that every time he thought this matter had reached the limit, Zhang Lin would always bring him that kind of shock.

Just like just now, Zhang Lin used a light and airy method to analyze how awkward the master-servant relationship between him and the King of Ten Thousand Slaves had reached at the beginning, and even said about the connection that might exist today.

Listening to that meaning, the other party seemed to speak very generally, but only those who understood the situation would be clear about how terrible a chain reaction Zhang Lin's words could bring, so Wang Wang Canghai was so nervous.
