Chapter 651: Everyone Is Shocked! They're Going to Pick People From Above?

"I remember someone mentioning the Jin Zita and such to me before. Actually, in many cases, we can take that into consideration—once you compare them, it'll become clear."

"Although the facts can't prove anything right now, I can tell you this: just like the largest Jin Zita of that era, the stars and sunlight in the sky will always shine upon a single point."

"This is the location of the Gumo Prince's tomb, and the reason he didn't do so was to hide these things. Tomorrow morning, when you watch the archaeological team's livestream, if the camera pans to the Jingkou—"

"you can look closely. No matter what time it is, the center point of the sunlight will be circling around the Jingkou, and the angle of that circling will form a very regular ring."

No one questioned Zhang Lin's words; instead, someone raised a hand and asked, "Mr. Zhang, the Jin Zita was built later than this tomb, right?"

Zhang Lin smiled slightly and nodded, saying, "That's right, of course it's later than him. So as I said before, never underestimate the wisdom of our Laozu Sect!"

The discourse on cultural confidence once again stirred up a frenzy!

And Zhang Lin continued, "Let's get back to the main topic. The first mechanism is located at the Jingkou, so the people above need to coordinate well with the people below."

"Regarding them opening the coffin lid and the tomb door closing, I didn't deliberately elaborate on that before."

"It's precisely because now is the time to open it. Think about it—if, within normal circumstances, the tomb door closes when the coffin is opened, what would everyone feel at the very first moment?" Some

one, eager to try, raised a hand and said, "Nervous, panicked."

"Exactly, that's it. This tomb is essentially a trap set by the Gumo Prince. While hiding information, he was also hiding himself."

"I said before that the Gumo Prince believed only those who could solve all the riddles could go to Jingjue Ancient City—that's the main reason he did this."

"If they reopened the tomb door at the very first moment, this final mechanism would be completely voided, and then they would be destined not to obtain the most crucial information. Even if they found Jingjue Ancient City, they absolutely couldn't get in."

Hearing these words, the crowd reacted quickly, because Zhang Lin's words might have already indirectly revealed what they would obtain after opening this mechanism.

Immediately someone hurriedly asked, "Mr. Zhang, do you mean that what's hidden beneath this mechanism is the key to reaching Xinxue Ancient City, right?"

Zhang Lin smiled slightly and said, "Do we even need to ask that question? From the very beginning, this is what we've been discussing. If this Gumo Prince's tomb had nothing to do with finding Jingjue Ancient City, I wouldn't have said so much here."

【Hmph! So smug, got your face slapped, didn't you!】

【This guy's question is basically useless talk, truly damn redundant, wasting time here.】

【Not necessarily. Actually, according to what Mr. Zhang said, since what's inside is related to finding Jingjue Ancient City, and even to entering Jingjue Ancient City, that means it's some kind of object, not some kind of information.】

【That seems to make sense too. If it's some kind of object, then it's also the Gumo Prince's only Burial Objects.】

Upon hearing this information, the expressions of the people on the Second Archaeological Team once again turned solemn.

Setting aside the difficulty of this mechanism for now, after all, Zhang Lin hadn't finished speaking.

The problem now is that the tomb door definitely cannot be opened. Under this premise, the people currently in the tomb cannot get out.

The matter above also involves opening the mechanism, and the mechanism is very difficult.

Over a dozen people went down into the tomb, and they are all skilled among them.

Precisely because of this, there aren't many usable people above. If it were only the simple mechanisms from before, the people above could still operate after hearing instructions.

But if there's any difficulty at all, they probably really have no hope..

Yang Lu, however, didn't think this way at this moment. She knew Zhang Lin must have also seen this point.

The reason he said so should be that the final step's operation is especially difficult.

As for the first and second mechanisms, the difficulty comes from their mutual coordination. Under these circumstances, there are still people above who can be used.

Yang Lu immediately thought of two people: one was Young Master Zhao, the other was Shen Qiong.

Wang Wang Kaixuan slapped his thigh and sighed at this moment, saying, "What are we going to do?! The people above can handle simple mechanisms, but they can't operate the complex ones at all."

Hu Hu Bayi frowned even more tightly, arms crossed, saying nothing.

If they got stuck here because of this, no one could accept it.

Even though some facts are cruel, such cruel realities might have been avoidable from the start.

But they didn't make that choice.

When they were going down into the tomb just now, these people were all eager to try. Now look at them—because of their earlier choices, they may very well pay a painful price.
