Chapter 668: A Close Call! The Arrow Off the String!
The others' gazes were also very unfriendly, and Wang Kaixuan at this moment indeed continued his usual personality as always.
He heard him curse harshly: "Damn! I knew this Young Master Zhao was unreliable, his mother's!"
This sentence was almost ground out through Wang Kaixuan's clenched teeth.
Actually, their previous thought was similar to Yang Lu's — if Shen Qiong had failed, they could understand it.
After all, Shen Qiong had grown a brain, and the second mechanism was extremely difficult!
But Young Master Zhao failing was something they could not tolerate. Even if Young Master Zhao had held on for three to five more minutes and then put the thing down, they could more or less accept it.
But in less than half a minute before and after, the cages had just risen, and Young Master Zhao had already gotten into this kind of situation.
Anyone in that position would not be able to accept it!
They couldn't see the specific situation, but the viewers in the livestream room could clearly see another livestream feed.
Right now they were all glaring with fury. Just ten seconds ago, Young Master Zhao's left hand had suddenly loosened a bit.
You have to know it was his right leg that was injured. This time, no one knows what kind of excuse he'll come up with, but no matter what, there's definitely no way to wash away the crime he's facing right now.
The girl above responsible for transmitting information, upon hearing Zhao Lusi's question, hurriedly ran to the Jingkou room's location.
She shouted toward the door: "Young Master Zhao, what are you doing?! Did you let go?"
Young Master Zhao at this moment had actually already gone blank, mechanically maintaining that posture.
It really wasn't intentional letting go just now, and his left hand loosening was only because his attention had been suddenly drawn away.
Because at the moment he was straining, the Luo Pan he was carrying suddenly dropped to the ground, and at that time the Luo Pan's needle was still spinning wildly.
You have to know that the instant they opened the Tomb of the Gumo Prince, the Luo Pan had already stopped spinning!
But for it to spin again at this moment — does that prove some dangerous situation is about to happen?
Even though Young Master Zhao had been using the Luo Pan to cause trouble, everything that had happened before told Young Master Zhao that whenever this needle spins, either a tomb or danger is involved — this point can basically be confirmed.
So under this premise, Young Master Zhao was terrified that his action might cost him his life.
But after one second passed, Young Master Zhao realized he might be overthinking it, and it seemed no danger would occur.
But the next instant he suddenly froze too — which is his current state.
Only at this moment did Young Master Zhao realize his left hand had slackened for a moment.
Because whenever he got nervous, his hands would basically tremble a bit, and this trembling usually came from the left hand.
The reason he froze was that he was afraid this one slip would cause everything below to fail.
That way he himself would be forever nailed to the pillar of shameful sin, so suddenly he didn't know what he should do.
Should he pull the ring back to its original position, or keep maintaining this state?
Because if his wavering caused an imbalance, Young Master Zhao didn't know what the result would be.
Faced with this questioning tone, Young Master Zhao didn't even dare say a single word, nor dared explain his behavior just now.
And at this moment the livestream camera suddenly panned to the Luo Pan, and the livestream room erupted in curses.
【It's the Luo Pan again! Young Master Zhao, hurry up and give the Luo Pan back to Mr. Zhang!】
【tmd! I knew you'd mess up.】
【Can't believe he's this useless — couldn't even hold on for half a minute.】
The people inside the Crescent Moon Restaurant also began to get nervous, but at this moment they all looked toward Zhang Lin in unison.
Someone suddenly asked: "Mr. Zhang, what should we do now?"
"This retard Young Master Zhao — his stupidity won't drag the last piece down to failure too, right?"
Zhang Lin, upon seeing this behavior, also let out a helpless sigh. He never in his wildest dreams imagined that Young Master Zhao would actually pull such a blunder at this juncture.
No one is born a fool — even Young Master Zhao, a spoiled rich second generation, is no exception.
He knows when he should play tricks, and what kind of price a sudden impulse at the wrong moment could cost him?
As far as the current situation goes, anyone making such a mistake cannot be forgiven.
No matter how Young Master Zhao explains it later, it will be the same. So as long as this Young Master Zhao has an IQ above eighty, he wouldn't choose to cause problems over something like this at this juncture.
But Zhang Lin thought to himself that fortunately things were still within controllable range.
If Young Master Zhao's arm had pulled back even two more centimeters, the cage would have automatically dropped.
Because that would cause everything to directly lose balance, and all the effort they had put in before and after would be completely wasted.
Thinking of this, Zhang Lin said slowly: "Fortunately it didn't cause too big a mistake. If that arm had pulled back just a little more, it really would have been over."
"Now we just need to return it to its original position."
Hearing Zhang Lin's words, everyone also breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment the cursing in the livestream room also stopped, and they began using all kinds of words to call the officials.
They knew only the officials could transmit such information, so they hurriedly notified them to tell Young Master Zhao to do as Zhang Lin said.
After all, Shen Qiong was still waiting below!
And right now everyone was also full of praise for Shen Qiong's action just now. Precisely because of Shen Qiong's caution, they still had one last chance.
If Shen Qiong hadn't heard that very faint clicking sound of the gears just now, then any effort now might have become unnecessary.
The officials watching the livestream, upon hearing this news, hurriedly grabbed the phone and dialed out. Fortunately, the little girl who had been receiving the information knew what was important.
Even though she had come out at this point, she still kept the satellite phone on her rather than leaving it in the tent, otherwise things would have been even more troublesome.
After picking up the phone, the little girl didn't even have time to report to those below, and directly shouted: "Young Master Zhao, Mr. Zhang's side says you just need to return to your original position, hurry up!"
In that brief moment just now, Young Master Zhao had actually already begun imagining the fate that might befall him.
No matter which one it was, basically he wasn't far from death.
But after hearing these words, he felt as if a ray of light had been drawn across the silent dark night, and it appeared right before his eyes.
He hurriedly pulled his left arm.
