Chapter 337
But this time, it was actually about an artifact!
Such a rare scene left many people who hadn't fallen asleep yet and were surfing the internet stunned.
Subsequently, after understanding the ins and outs, almost everyone fell into immense shock.
On the topic square, it was all anticipation for Wang Canghai.
And then there was speculation about the Art of Longevity—how exactly was King Zhou Mu's longevity achieved?!
After all, the information the public had seen so far was extremely limited.
Almost whatever the archaeological team saw, the public saw.
Regarding immortality, there wasn't even a single bit more of useful speculation.
Everyone had basically resigned themselves to the fact that they would definitely have to wait for official research before there could be a preliminary conclusion.
Or, it would require some heavyweight experts to come out and speak.
Unexpectedly, the surprise came too suddenly!
Isn't a heavyweight person here right now?!
A Feng Shui master personally used by Zhu Yuanzhang—this identity is absolutely sufficient to talk about longevity!
Inside the Xinyue Hotel, Zhang Lin saw that everyone's eyes had turned somewhat bloodshot.
It was unclear whether it was from their brains swelling with excitement or simply because they had stayed up too late today.
But the expression on everyone's face was silently urging Zhang Lin to start speaking quickly.
Without pausing for long, Zhang Lin pointed to the last few lines on the screen and said: "After Wang Canghai carved his observations within the Gate of the Underworld, his tone shifted and he began to speak of King Zhou Mu's longevity."
"In this passage, he indicated that he already knew the owner of the Western Zhou tomb was King Zhou Mu."
"At the same time, Wang Canghai also saw that living corpse of Tie Miansheng."
"He could have originally dragged Tie Miansheng out and claimed the jade burial suit for himself, but in the end, he did not do so."
"The Dragon Fish Secret Text records that the reason Wang Canghai did not do so was that he felt King Zhou Mu's Art of Longevity was incomplete and belonged to a semi-finished product!"
"Between the lines, it revealed the disdain of this Feng Shui master; he seemed to look down upon King Zhou Mu's Art of Longevity extremely!"
Hearing this, many people were already dumbfounded.
They were basically unable to say a single word!
They clearly remembered the excitement of everyone when King Zhou Mu's Art of Longevity was first discovered!
The archaeological team could be considered to have seen the world, right?
But even an archaeological titan like Professor Chen was exceptionally shocked by the appearance of the Art of Longevity.
Yet now, switching to Wang Canghai, he actually looked down on it?!
Looked down on it!?
Some of the big shots in the second and third-floor boxes of the Xinyue Hotel were already somewhat on the verge of a breakdown!
What kind of family is this?
Even immortality is looked down upon?
Zhu Yuanzhang, a dignified founding emperor of a generation, might not even have such big talk, right?
He, Wang Canghai, a mere imperial servant, on what basis does he have such thoughts?
Everyone's mood was extremely complex; they already felt somewhat helpless toward Wang Canghai.
Ever since this Feng Shui master appeared, he had repeatedly stirred everyone's nerves.
From being separated by several hundred years and still being able to play the people of the Laojiu Sect in circles.
To now, being somewhat disdainful of the three-thousand-year-old Art of Longevity of King Zhou Mu.
Wang Canghai's image in everyone's hearts had shifted time and time again!
Many people had already begun to develop a great interest in him.
They all wanted to know, what kind of god-like person could have such methods and thinking?
The netizens squatting in the live broadcast room had completely lost their temper at this moment.
The barrage was also left with only exclamations for Wang Canghai.
【Awesome! Really, Wang Canghai, the man has been dead for hundreds of years, I reckon if he were dug up now, his whole body would be stiff!】
【I'm afraid only someone truly with heaven-reaching abilities could speak so toughly, right?】
【I really don't know where this person gets his confidence? He even looks down on King Zhou Mu's Art of Longevity; could it be that he can create a better one himself?】
【Holy crap! Stop talking, why do I feel like there's such a possibility?】
【Damn! I have goosebumps all over; because he looked down on the semi-finished product of the Son of Heaven's longevity, he performed improvements? No way!】
【If Wang Canghai is really this awesome, if I find his tomb, I'll have to kowtow to him!】
【I don't think it's very likely; if he really improved the Art of Longevity and didn't need to experience such a long slumber, wouldn't that mean he might be living among you and me?】
【Thinking about it is terrifying! Stop talking! I look at everyone like Wang Canghai now!】
Wang Canghai's arrogance made it difficult for many people to understand.
Facing the noisy questions in the venue, Zhang Lin said: "Everyone, why Wang Canghai would have disdain, you will understand if you keep listening."
"Actually, the information we have mastered is basically the same as Wang Canghai's!"
"I read his records and only then understood that he is indeed a genius."
"He can strip away the most critical things from very limited information and string them together."
"Actually, if Wang Canghai didn't work as a Feng Shui master and went to be a detective, I think it would also be quite suitable!"
"If you don't believe me, I can list the current information for you."
With Zhang Lin saying this, almost everyone's competitive spirit was stirred up.
Everyone, upon hearing Zhang Lin say that the information Wang Canghai knew was consistent with what they knew, was somewhat disbelieving!
If the information known was consistent, then on what basis could Wang Canghai peek into the essence of the Art of Longevity, while they could not?
In this instant, everyone had the thought of wanting to have a remote duel with Wang Canghai.
They just didn't believe that the intelligence of modern people couldn't beat a Ming Dynasty person?
Seeing this, Zhang Lin smiled faintly and then said: "Everyone, the known information is actually just this much."
"The Eastern Xia royal family are monsters; based on the inference that the Divine Mother is the Queen Mother of the West, it can be judged that they should be a half-human, half-beast species!"
"The Eastern Xia Emperor's handover ceremony is related to the Gate of the Underworld; during the handover, the old emperor will enter the Gate of the Underworld, and then the new emperor is born and comes out from the gate."
"The key for the Eastern Xia people to open the Gate of the Underworld comes from the Queen Mother of the West, so the Eastern Xia people are related to the Queen Mother of the West."
"Then there is King Zhou Mu swallowing the immortality pill and lying in the jade burial suit!"
"Afterward, he needs to shed his skin at regular intervals; if he doesn't come out of the jade burial suit before three thousand years, he will turn into a blood corpse!"
"The blood corpse in the Western Zhou tomb is what King Zhou Mu turned into, and there is a red Corpse Beetle King in the blood corpse's head."
"After the Corpse Beetle King comes into contact with the human body, the person will be rapidly infected by the toxicity, their skin will crack and rot, looking like a blood corpse, just like that unfortunate team member who sacrificed themselves in the archaeological team."
"This is all the information currently; can you possibly draw some conclusions based on these things?"
After Zhang Lin finished speaking, he scanned the audience below.
He found that everyone was basically frowning, or else showing embarrassment!
Absolutely no one could infer the essence of the Art of Longevity from such scattered information.
Many people even felt, did Zhang Lin help Wang Canghai cheat, and there was still some information not given completely?
Yin Nanfeng and Zhang Qishan stood on the second floor, looking at this group of people lost in thought.
"You thought of it, right?" Yin Nanfeng asked.
Zhang Qishan nodded, then shook his head.
"Such longevity, it's no wonder Wang Canghai looks down on it."
Seeing that no one had spoken below for a long time, Zhang Lin did not continue to wait.
Instead, he said directly: "Since you can't think of it, then listen to Wang Canghai's conclusion."
"His first conclusion is that the Eastern Xia royal family also knows the Art of Longevity!"
"The second conclusion, the Eastern Xia royal family's Art of Longevity is the same as King Zhou Mu's, both coming from the Queen Mother of the West, or perhaps coming from ancient times!"
"The third conclusion..."
