Chapter 852: Young Master Zhao

But just at this moment, a rumbling sound came from the circular platform again.

The cylinder that held the jade eyeball rose slowly by half a meter, just when everyone thought that the gate would open next.

And they were holding their breath in expectation of this scene, but immediately after, they didn't see the picture they wanted.

It was just that a stone platform had risen, and there were no other changes!

And this stone platform itself had corresponding symbols carved around it; no one knew what it was meant to express.

The person who had raised their hand to ask a question earlier and had been suppressed asked again: "Mr. Zhang, you said before that this jade pendant is the key to opening the gate of the Ancient City of Jingjue, and now..."

Zhang Lin didn't wait for him to finish asking, and directly waved his hand, saying: "The key is the key, but the key is only a primer. There is one point you must understand: even the Prince of Gumo had to set such a mechanism in his own tomb chamber and prison."

"If you could open the gate leading to the tomb of the Queen of Jingjue just by relying on a jade pendant, then all of this would be too simple!"

Once these words were spoken, everyone nodded in understanding. As long as Zhang Lin could give a clear answer, they would accept it.

And everyone also understood the implication of Zhang Lin's words this time.

That was, to enter that place, one still needed to pass through some mechanisms under this premise before that gate could be opened.

Because of this, these people simply stopped being anxious and waited quietly for Zhang Lin to reveal the next answer, or for the Second Archaeological Team to have some new developments.

And at this time, everyone in the Second Archaeological Team, except for Yang Lusi, was in a state of confusion.

If the rising of the stone platform was still within their logical range, then the two flashbangs just now were completely beyond their cognition.

Even Wang Kaixuan, who threw the flashbangs, was like this. At the time, the reason he brought these flashbangs was just because he was interested.

He hadn't thought that they could really play such a big role. At this time, Wang Kaixuan first glanced at the risen stone platform, and then his gaze moved downward involuntarily, seeing those bloody and blurred scenes again.

Only then did Young Master Zhao react. The shattered flesh and blood not only looked gruesome, but also emitted a foul odor.

Young Master Zhao couldn't hold it back for a moment and vomited with a "wow."

He vomited out all the food residue he had eaten this morning, and then subconsciously wiped the corner of his mouth.

The air quality in this main hall was already poor, and with Young Master Zhao vomiting like this, many people followed suit and started retching.

Wang Kaixuan frowned slightly, kicked Young Master Zhao, and said sternly: "Go vomit somewhere else!"

Kicking Young Master Zhao to the side, Wang Kaixuan scanned the area. Except for Yang Lusi, Hu Bayi, and Shen Qiong, everyone else was retching.

At this time, Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but say: "You guys too, you've smelled corpse stench before, can't you handle just this little bit of smell?"

Xu Lang wiped the corner of his mouth upon hearing this and said: "The smell of this thing is much more overbearing than a dried corpse. What did these strange snakes grow up eating?!"

Wang Kaixuan shook his head and stopped paying attention to them, instead walking to Yang Lusi's side and asking: "Team Leader Yang, how did you know these snakes were afraid of strong light?"

Hu Bayi couldn't help but say at this time: "The effect of this flashbang is stronger than a grenade; it's truly incredible."

Although the road ahead was uncertain and the door had disappeared, Yang Lusi still explained: "Actually, I wasn't too sure before. When Xu Lang's camera flash went off, I noticed that the eye formed by the strange snakes above moved, so I had such a guess. The situation was urgent just now, and we couldn't test it, so I just let you take action."

Everyone nodded slowly upon hearing this, and Young Master Zhao stopped vomiting at this time.

In a closed illusion, one can always adapt to special smells faster; even if this smell is very strong, as long as it is harmless, it's fine.

Even if that smell still existed after more than half an hour, they wouldn't even realize that this smell was foul.

At this moment, Young Master Zhao's attention was entirely focused on the jade-carved eyeball in Wang Kaixuan's hand.

It could even be said that his eyes had already started to glow green; that was a signal of greed!

The others in the Second Archaeological Team didn't notice this, but Young Master Zhao's state at this moment couldn't escape the sharp eyes of the audience watching the live broadcast.

【Holy crap! Look at that!!!】

【Don't make noise, we all see it, no one is blind!】

【Could this be the "Lao Liu" law, just like the First Archaeological Team?】

【This law doesn't exist. Greed is insatiable; greedy people are everywhere!】

【Young Master Zhao himself definitely doesn't have the guts. Is it because of the influence here?】

If it weren't for the fact that a Sun Wu suddenly popped out of the First Archaeological Team, these netizens watching the live broadcast wouldn't be so nervous.

After all, as mentioned in the barrage before, greedy people are everywhere, but no one expected that Sun Wu would have the guts to make such a choice.

At this time, someone inside the Crescent Hotel suddenly raised their hand and asked: "Mr. Zhang, do you think this Young Master Zhao will suddenly make a move like Sun Wu?"

Zhang Lin shook his head immediately and said: "If it really is Young Master Zhao, he definitely wouldn't do that."

Hearing this sentence, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, all in a state of confusion.

If it were in the situation just now, they would naturally think of the reason, or perhaps because of that corpse-fragrant konjac that had already hidden itself.

But after Zhang Lin's analysis just now, plus their own understanding, they intentionally or unintentionally ignored those things.

What Zhang Lin had to do now was to let everyone return to that starting point, because they had already officially entered the Ancient City of Jingjue, so all these influences would appear within the range.

On this premise, if their train of thought couldn't be adjusted back in time, they would definitely not be able to keep up with what Zhang Lin was going to say next. ===== CHAPTER 853 =====
