Chapter 2687: Everyone's Confusion! Why So Urgent?!

Yang Lu could not accept this no matter what, and she quickly came to her senses, so now she wanted to take the archaeological team and set out immediately, because they had already rested for a whole night, and it was now noon.

If she had taken other people's advice, Yang Lu's choice should have been to wait on the spot, until tonight after Zhang Lin went to the Crescent Moon Restaurant before they set out.

But now for Yang Lu, in this place she only needed to learn one thing before she could keep moving forward; last night she had already noticed that something was off about Ake.

So she told herself in her heart that she absolutely had to find a time to ask for a clear answer, and not let things go on like this. Yesterday everyone had been exhausted, so Yang Lu did not do that.

But since today they had already rested well, this matter had to be dealt with as the first priority; she felt that Ake hiding things like this was really unfair.

Perhaps the things inside were related to what he believed in, but right now these things were not what Yang Lu cared about; the most important thing was to let the archaeological team continue forward in a good state, nothing else.

If under these circumstances he continued to hide things, it would definitely be detrimental to the team as a whole. This was Ake — he had joined the Second Archaeological Team later, and he had never been a formal member of the archaeological team, so Yang Lu could not directly say anything about his concealment.

But not blaming him is one thing, at this moment she had to get a clear answer. If the other party was unwilling to speak, then Yang Lu could not be blamed for not being polite. From the very beginning Yang Lu had expressed doubt about this point.

Moreover, Zhang Lin had also reminded her, intentionally or not, to be on guard against this Ake, saying you never know when a real problem might appear. For the existing members of the Second Archaeological Team, the ones Yang Lu could absolutely trust were still the original ones she had brought along.

As for the later additions, A Xiang and A Ke, although on the surface there was no guard against them, Yang Lu still had to keep an eye out, afraid of really being stabbed in the back.

This might also be the experience left over from being in the Worm Valley before; if she did not do this, she would only be making things hard for herself. Yang Lu was not a fool — even with Zhang Lin's instructions, she still had to maintain absolute caution.

Having thought this through, Yang Lu directly gathered everyone. The others did not think too much about it; they assumed that Yang Lu calling everyone over at this time was probably just to hold a small meeting and make a summary.

They also said something about Uncle Ming's death. According to Bide's situation, he probably could not stir up any trouble now, but if it was later proven that all of this was deliberately faked by him, you never know when he might directly take revenge.

Then for the Second Archaeological Team it would be more loss than gain; perhaps Yang Lu was guarding against this, which was why she chose to do so.

But this time they were really overthinking it. Yang Lu had never thought of following their ideas; what Wang Kaixuan, Hu Bayi and others said was not that important to Yang Lu.

The key lay in what Yang Lu herself thought. This was not her being overly arbitrary or emphasizing her presence as the leader; it was just that, looking at this matter through her own thinking, as long as there was no order from Zhang Lin, she would definitely act on her own — this was also where Yang Lu was superior to Wu Tianzhen.

At least in the current situation, Wu Tianzhen did not dare to make his own decision, but looking at Yang Lu, she simply did not care about all those messy situations; everything being decided by herself was fine, and as for other people's feelings or concerns, Yang Lu could set them aside for now.

And she firmly told herself in her heart that the basis for what she did came from Zhang Lin. If before this Zhang Lin had any other arrangements, as long as Yang Lu saw them, she would change her own thinking — this was the stance Yang Lu had made clear.

And gathering everyone together, Yang Lu did not look at the others, she just said to herself: "I've decided that we will set out in a while."

Hearing these words, Wang Kaixuan was the first to be stunned, and he hurriedly said: "Leader Yang cannot be so arbitrary. Even the First Archaeological Team has not set out directly, so although they are preparing, according to their thinking they probably still have to wait until Mr. Zhang goes to the Crescent Moon Restaurant."

After hearing these words, Yang Lu waved her hand and then said loudly: "A few minutes ago I already received news from the official side that the First Archaeological Team has decided to set out now, and this is Mr. Zhang's order."

Wang Kaixuan subconsciously nodded, then his eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked: "According to what you mean, has Mr. Zhang also given us some order?"

Hearing this, Yang Lu could not help but laugh, then she shook her head. Regarding these matters, Yang Lu felt she simply did not need to avoid them — reality is reality, why lie?

She also believed that the people present could understand her approach, after all the current situation required them to do far too many things.

Based on this point, if the matter was not handled particularly well, it could only plunge herself into endless passivity — this was the most core issue.

If this kind of problem could not be solved, it could only disappoint Zhang Lin, and at the same time Yang Lu would fall into a bad state, which was not a situation anyone wanted to see.
