Chapter 2856

Now Zhang Lin was wondering whether to hold another early book session today, not just for the Archaeology Team Two and Archaeology Team One.

There were also these readers, who were equally full of anticipation; after all, there were still many layers to the previous events that Zhang Lin needed to answer.

Looking at Archaeology Team Two, the group was walking down the plank path at this point; naturally they didn't descend as fast as Yanglusi, but the sound of the water surface rebounding—

And Yanglusi's shout—let everyone breathe a sigh of relief; actually, Zhang Lin watching this scene wasn't nervous at all.

On the contrary, Wang Wang Canghai had already raised his heart to his throat; for Zhang Lin, all of this was an arrangement he had deliberately made.

Even though they hadn't directly influenced Archaeology Team Two's choice, the choice Archaeology Team Two made now was entirely the inevitable result under Zhang Lin's guidance along the situation.

Only now Wang Wang Canghai still didn't understand this point, still clinging to his previous way of thinking; upon hearing Yanglusi's shout, Wang Wang Canghai patted his chest.

In the past he absolutely wouldn't have lost his composure like this; even when things had reached a point that couldn't be restrained, Wang Wang Canghai would still forcefully maintain his own bearing, not letting anyone notice anything amiss.

The reason he had to kill Xue Long was also because of this kind of thing—initially causing trouble for Zhang Lin, and Wang Wang Canghai making mistake after mistake, one after another.

Failure after failure caused his mindset to collapse; at that point he kept losing the composure he had originally maintained.

Wang Wang Canghai not only didn't want to fall into this passive state, but anyone who saw this uncontrollable emotion of his would be eliminated by him.

This is also the reason why Wang Wang Canghai currently doesn't have a single person by his side who is absolutely loyal to him, which has led to Wang Wang Canghai now being a true lone wolf.

Of course, the reason Wang Yang Canghai has this kind of personality might also be because he had too much contact with those emperors; every single one of them was a lone wolf, fundamentally trusting no one; given that, ending in a tragic fate was inevitable.

Throughout history, not a single emperor truly met a good end; even at a time point like the Qing Dynasty it was the same.

History is like a joke, always giving someone a resounding slap across the face just when they hold expectations; originally Wang Wang Canghai felt he didn't need to fall into this passive posture.

But now reality simply hasn't given him any chance; however, none of this matters anymore—Wang Wang Canghai, seeing that Yanglusi had already escaped her predicament, heaved a heavy sigh of relief, thinking that as long as Yanglusi could continue forward with this kind of attitude, it would be fine.

After all, Su Nan had sent him information again, having already begun crossing the underground river. This meant Su Nan was about to meet up with Archaeology Team Two.

It should be in just a few hours; of course, this was the estimated time Wang Wang Canghai had given, never confirmed by Su Nan.

What comes next is what Wang Wang Canghai truly needs to worry about—he didn't know what method Su Nan would use to approach Archaeology Team Two; if the other party really went head-to-head with Archaeology Team Two like Gawa did, then all of Wang Wang Canghai's previous plans would still come to nothing.

But Wang Wang Canghai now told himself forcefully inside that Su Nan was absolutely not that kind of fool like Gawa; only that kind of dimwit would handle things to that extent.

Looking at Su Nan, she should be more rational, able to discuss with Archaeology Team Two in the calmest mood, even though the Wang Cen behind her was hated by Archaeology Team Two.

Su Nan wasn't useless; she absolutely could use this method to persuade the other side; after all, he had already said it before—since Archaeology Team Two already had a Shen Qiong, one more Su Nan wouldn't matter.

Wang Wang Canghai's worry wasn't wrong; right now the only thing Su Nan was unsure of was whether Yanglusi would hate everything connected to the house because of her hatred for Wang Cen; given how great that hatred was, even if she said anything more now it would be meaningless—Yanglusi would still kill her.

But Su Nan also knew right now she had to gamble on this one; everything was for Wang Cen; as long as Wang Cen could be safe, Su Nan could give up a lot of things.

If it really came to that final step, seeing things truly develop as she imagined, even giving up her life would be worth it.

As for Yanglusi, after falling into the water she actually wasn't entirely calm; what exactly was hidden inside this underground river was completely uncertain.

Moreover, she was still inside a tomb; the scene she had seen in the Xian Wang tomb before was still fresh in her memory—whether what was hidden inside was truly Xian Wang's corpse, there was still no definite answer.

Zhang Lin at the New Moon Restaurant might have deliberately avoided this point and didn't talk about it at length; but Yanglusi and Zhang Lin maintained this kind of tacit understanding—as long as the other didn't bring up these things, Yanglusi definitely wouldn't ask again.

She understood that being too persistent might instead bring trouble to the other party; under this premise, Yanglusi only needed to act according to Zhang Lin's next guidance.

Yanglusi in the water didn't rush to swim upstream herself first, but brought A Xiang along; just now A Xiang had indeed been on her back.

But the situation had really been too urgent, and added to the fact that A Xiang probably hadn't experienced a similar crisis before, this nervous emotion had caused the other person to be in a completely exhausted state.

So Yanglusi was also quite worried; she dragged A Xiang all the way to the shore.

After reaching shore, A Xiang panted heavily; even though her heart had earlier jumped to her throat, she still ran straight to Yanglusi and hurriedly asked: "Captain Yang, are you alright?"

Actually A Xiang felt self-reproach at this moment; after all, the situation had been so critical just now, and she could only lie on Yanglusi's back, unable to do anything, even feeling like she was useless.

Yanglusi observed keenly and quickly saw where A Xiang's emotions were off; so she immediately said: "A Xiang, don't overthink it—at least we're safe now, and that's enough."

A Xiang nodded with reddened eyes, and at the same time a touch of gratitude welled up in her heart—Yanglusi had already thought of everything for her.
