Chapter 544: The style of the corridor is exactly the same! Why is that?
It matches the pictures perfectly, and even their material, upon closer inspection, is identical.
Even without comparing any carvings, this point is indisputable.
Seeing this, the official personnel gasped, their eyes filled with blank shock.
Everything about this was far too abnormal!
And the people in the live stream comments finally reacted!
【Do you think this tomb passage looks like Wang Wang Canghai’s laboratory?】
【Now that you mention it, it really does! How strange!】
【Don’t fucking guess blindly. Wang Wang Canghai might have been here, but he wouldn’t have built the exact same thing.】
【One laboratory was already incredible enough!】
【Not only that, but that laboratory was hollowed out beforehand; he didn’t build it from scratch.】
【If he built another one here, the amount of effort required would be immense.】
Once this was said, everyone fell into a brief silence. In truth, whatever they could think of, the officials could naturally think of as well.
This involved the scale of the engineering; if Wang Wang Canghai wanted to carve out a corridor like this here, the effort spent might far exceed his research costs.
Therefore, the officials truly didn’t know how to report this to the Second Archaeological Team, or whether they should even tell them this result. The officials were mainly worried that once this result was shared, it would cause panic within the Second Archaeological Team.
Although those who survived were absolute elites, and the rest were still stationed outside.
Relatively speaking, the officials did not want to see the people here in an even more stressed state.
Under this premise, the officials chose caution. After a discussion among everyone, a few minutes later, they decided to let the group continue walking down the corridor.
Besides, as long as there was no corresponding danger warning, there was no need to report this news; it might just be a coincidence.
To be honest, the officials were overthinking it; they really should have reported the situation immediately, even if it meant causing panic!
Because the appearance of a Ming Dynasty structure in any Han Dynasty tomb is contrary to reason.
Even if Yang Lu had realized a certain danger was coming before this, danger is danger after all. If they had been informed in advance, Yang Lu would have had a certain level of warning.
But now the situation had to be discussed differently; perhaps even Yang Lu only had a corresponding warning the moment before the danger arrived.
After all, she hadn’t watched the First Archaeological Team’s live stream; she had only received the news!
The two archaeological teams had descended at the same time, but the First Archaeological Team had moved faster, or perhaps Wang Wang Canghai’s laboratory itself wasn’t that complex.
And what they had experienced was not just the Ancient City of Jingjue; they had previously come to the Prince of Gumo’s tomb and walked for so long in the Taklamakan Desert!
Facing the rolling yellow sands and the heaven-shaking sandstorms, they had walked step by step through extreme danger to arrive here. Every situation was so eerie.
And those previous spider lilies—all of this was heading in a bad direction.
These people could only hold one mindset as they walked on: the coffin of the Queen of Jingjue. Everything they experienced before finding the coffin was, in their view, fake.
Even if it were real, they would tell themselves so in their hearts.
Because Zhang Lin had said not to believe what one’s eyes see!
Even if their way of understanding was wrong, they had to force themselves to understand things from this perspective at this time.
Under this premise, everyone seemed to have become unconcerned!
And just at the next moment, within the Second Archaeological Team, Yang Lu pondered for a long while before saying, "I will go ahead to scout the path. You wait here!"
Instinctive caution told Yang Lu that she absolutely could not just walk forward like a blind dog looking at the stars.
Since Zhang Lin could no longer provide further instructions, or perhaps his own senior brother believed she could complete all the next steps of the plan—everything had come so logically.
Yang Lu had to fulfill her final responsibility as the team leader!
These people seemed to have accepted the previous facts, but in reality, Yang Lu could see that they hadn’t broken free from the deaths of Xiao Peng and Xu Lang.
It was just that they had been stimulated to the point of having no reaction. Relatively speaking, she now felt that Young Master Zhao was the most normal.
At least he could still guess the situation regarding the Corpse-Fragrant Konjac. If it was truly as Young Master Zhao said, and there was a Corpse-Fragrant Konjac ahead, and this water vapor was used to nourish it.
Then the previous scenes would have to repeat themselves. But if that were the case, Yang Lu would actually feel relieved; at least they had experience in dealing with the same situation.
As long as they blew up the Corpse-Fragrant Konjac within a certain range, it would be fine. The only thing Yang Lu worried about now was that this corridor was too narrow. If the space at the end was also relatively narrow, then detonating the bomb would definitely cause the tomb passage to collapse along with it.
Then they would truly have nowhere to go; they would call to heaven and get no response, and call to earth and get no answer.
The only result would be waiting for death. Yang Lu did not want to see these things happen.
So she told herself she must see clearly what was ahead as soon as possible. And Hu Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi did not listen to Yang Lu this time.
Instead, they said, "Team Leader Yang, you can send any one of us to scout the path, but you cannot go."
Upon hearing this, Yang Lu took a deep breath. She didn’t listen to the two explain, but she understood what they meant.
If Young Master Zhao hadn’t mentioned this conjecture about the Corpse-Fragrant Konjac, everyone might not have cared too much right now. But once this conjecture was established, they were clear about what consequences it would trigger.
The key lay in the fact that they had already witnessed with their own eyes the Corpse-Fragrant Konjac controlling Xu Lang and Xiao Peng. Just by taking one step forward, they had already been in that kind of illusion.
The whole person had fallen into that kind of manic, uncontrollable state!
So they could not let Yang Lu put herself in danger. Now, if any person in the Second Archaeological Team was controlled, Yang Lu could still lead the team.
Or they could rest here, waiting for Mr. Zhang Lin from the Crescent Hotel to appear again to solve the problems before them.
Or Yang Lu could rely on her own train of thought to solve the subsequent problems.
Of course, before this, a piece of bait needed to be thrown out to see the reaction to this bait, and based on this possible anomaly, then make a reasonable solution for the following matters.
The next moment, Yang Lu did not argue anymore. She didn’t want the phrase "the big picture is most important" to be said by Wang Pangzi or Hu Hu Bayi!
