Chapter 3249: Fear of the soul! It can never be dispelled!
However, the current situation was completely outside of Zhang Lin's expectations. First of all, Wang Canghai had made one point clear: Zhang Lin would absolutely not make his identity public.
Even in private, he would not tell Yang Lu that he was still alive, because while Yang Lu could handle everything in reality, that did not include the fact that he was Wang Canghai.
And if his identity were to spread among the Second Archaeological Team, even if Yang Lu could eventually adjust her state of mind, people like Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi would not say anything.
But Wang Canghai could still guess what the former Wang family members would become. As a member of the Wang family, even if one had only stayed in the Wang family for a single day, in their cognition, it would leave a very important position for Wang Canghai.
Even that kind of fear came from the depths of the soul and could never be changed. This was exactly the result Wang Canghai wanted to see from the beginning. At the same time, he used such things to complete many of his own plans. If it weren't for this instinctive fear, Wang Canghai believed he would not have been able to pass these three hundred plus years so smoothly.
But there was one point that Wang Canghai got wrong: while the overall changes of these three hundred years were indeed due to the influence of the Wang family, in essence, he did not let the Wang family take another step upward.
Perhaps Wang Canghai also realized later that things could not go on like this; he needed to change his method to deal with all of this.
It could be said that at this stage, the Wang family was just at a position of transformation. If this transformation succeeded, Wang Canghai could solve all subsequent problems once and for all. If it failed, Wang Canghai had a retreat; he just needed to establish a new Wang family.
But as it happened, Wang Canghai wandered in between, ending up in a very awkward position. That is to say, because of Zhang Lin's appearance, Wang Canghai was forced to choose the middle ground; he could neither walk the path to success nor take the path back due to failure.
He could only be blocked here, and no method could save him. This was also the most helpless point in Wang Canghai's heart at this moment.
But even so, Wang Canghai had to accept his fate. Perhaps this was the terrifying aspect of Zhang Lin. Wang Canghai kept muttering in his heart that if it weren't for Zhang Lin's appearance, he would not have fallen into this predicament, but what was the point of saying these things now?
All the results had already been destined. Fortunately, Wang Canghai could still keep a bit of vigilance in his intuition, or rather, a clever response: that was, upon arriving at the Second Archaeological Team, he would not choose to start a massacre.
Zhang Lin's previous subtle guidance was intended to influence this matter, and Wang Canghai also kept telling himself in his heart that if he really burned his bridges and fought to the death, that would be falling right into the trap.
Zhang Lin might just be looking for an excuse to use such a method to force him to make a move. Wang Canghai believed that he would absolutely not fall for such a malicious trick, so his choice was to deal with all of this in a peaceful way.
Even if his identity as a mysterious person were revealed, he believed Yang Lu would not confront him head-on, just as the result would be the same if Wang Cen or Leng Feng arrived at the Second Archaeological Team. Although the response Leng Feng made earlier made Yang Lu full of vigilance, or in certain situations, Yang Lu was deeply disgusted with members of the Wang family.
Every time she saw a member of the Wang family, she wanted to kill them quickly. The most typical example of this was the previously appearing Gawa, who came to the Second Archaeological Team in a way that was seeking death.
And then he used those extreme means, hoping to have a place in the Second Archaeological Team, and even directly kill Yang Lu. Then the consequence he caused would inevitably be death; this point was indisputable.
Even anyone in this world who opposed Zhang Lin in this way would not have a good end. That is to say, Gawa was targeting Yang Lu at that time, but in reality, Zhang Lin at the Crescent Hotel had long since seen all of this. Under these circumstances, how could Zhang Lin let the Wang family go?
Even if he let the Wang family go, he would not let Gawa go. This meant that if Yang Lu hadn't killed Gawa at the time, Gawa's subsequent fate would likely have been worse than death.
Because what he had to face was Zhang Lin's revenge. Zhang Lin would not talk to him about those messy things, nor would he show the slightest bit of mercy. At the same time, he also determined that the best revenge against a person was definitely not just putting him to death.
Sometimes, being alive is a better punishment for a person. For example, Zhang Lin targeting Wang Canghai now is the same logic.
Looking at the present, after hesitating for a long time, Yang Lu sighed, and then she looked directly at Ake, immediately saying: "Ake, we are about to set off. I want to hear your analysis before we leave."
Ake was stunned when he heard this. His hand holding the prayer beads stopped unnaturally. He looked at Yang Lu with some surprise, and then asked with a smile: "Team Leader Yang, I don't understand what you are talking about."
Yang Lu shook her head slowly, and then she said: "Are you sure you don't know? Ake, I have been on guard against you all along this journey. You have seen this point too."
When Yang Lu said this, her tone paused immediately. She was waiting for Ake's reaction.
And Ake still nodded peacefully, without saying anything else. In fact, this was another reason why Yang Lu felt Ake was very unfathomable, because the other party seemed to have no other emotions. This feeling of no joy and no sorrow caused too strong a visual impact on people.
The less a person shows joy or anger, the more terrifying they are. Yang Lu's cognition of this point was very clear. Since that was the case, Yang Lu kept telling herself in her heart that she must never let go of this guard. And this time, Yang Lu laid her cards directly on the table in front of Ake, wanting him to tell the truth.
The next moment, only Ake was heard saying: "Team Leader Yang, it's still the same sentence: if you don't trust me, I can leave at any time." ===== CHAPTER 3250 =====
