Chapter 41: The chess piece is placed, and the dead end is set! (Ch 41)

Song Linglong trembled again: “Everyone…”
She raised her head and met Zhou Cheng’s straight gaze.
Her heart suddenly trembled.
Two pairs of eyes slowly looked upwards!
“No…..”
“impossible….”
“Immortality cannot be an illusion!”
Fatty Han’s unwilling and hysterical voice echoed throughout the ancient tomb.
He seemed like he was crazy.
“I can feel and see that the elixir of life is being injected into my body!”
“My body is getting younger!”
“Every cell is coming back to life.”
“My dick can testify to that!”
“Ha ha!”
“This is ridiculous, how could this be an illusion?”
“I can’t believe you!”
“If I can hold on for just one more hour, I will be immortal and forever young!”
Song Linglong’s heart trembled again, and her dark pupils seemed to be beating.
Fatty Han’s words were like silver needles stimulating her nerves!
She shook her head slowly, her purple lips moving: “It turns out that I’m not the only one who feels this way…”
The voice of the Third Master suddenly came: “This chess game of immortality!”
“Becoming a chess piece will give you eternal life!”
“You also said that immortality is possible!”
Terry’s voice also rang out: “Third Master is right!”
“We must be firm in our beliefs and not waver!”
A frenzy spread in the ancient tomb.
Their words have proved Zhang Xuan’s speculation.
Barrages of comments kept appearing on the screen of the live broadcast room as if they were exploding.
“Oh my god, these lunatics!!”
“Brother Xuan is right, these people are scarier than drug addicts!”
“Reason can no longer wake them up!!”
“My scalp tingles. Human greed is so terrible!”
Faced with this crazy and ridiculous sound, Zhang Xuan in the camera did not seem surprised.
He just said quietly: “If it is true as you said, then why are there so many mummies on the chessboard?”
“Of course, I also know that this won’t convince you.”
“Immortality is indeed possible.”
“It may even be inside Li Chunfeng’s ancient tomb.”
“But definitely not on the chessboard!”
Zhang Xuan’s words hit everyone’s chest like a sledgehammer.
Expressions of resistance and unwillingness appeared on everyone’s face.
Zhang Xuan’s voice sounded as if he was talking to himself: “Eternal life is a calamity. Eternal life is a calamity.”
“Li Chunfeng’s purpose is very clear. Those who cannot withstand the test of immortality are not qualified to enter his ancient tomb.”
“Only those who can resist the temptation of immortality can survive.”
“Of course, it is very difficult to overcome the temptation of this neurotoxin.”
“Without superhuman perseverance, it is impossible to do it!”
“You are not the ones he chose!”
“The ending may have been decided the moment you made your move…”
. . . . . . . .
Song’s house.
Listening to Zhang Xuan’s voice.
A look of resentment appeared on Fairy Song’s face.
As a third-person audience.
How could she not understand the meaning of Zhang Xuan’s words.
But unfortunately, Guihai and Linglong had already lost their rationality.
Just like drug addicts and crazy gamblers.
Language is so powerless in the face of crazy desire.
Just like Zhang Xuan’s last sentence, perhaps the result has already been decided!
“Is there really no other way…”
Her hands, which were holding the cane tightly, were shaking slightly.
“It’s so fucking scary!”
“How could this Li Chunfeng come up with such a cruel mechanism?”
“Even his own descendants will be killed!”
Hei Qiye sighed and shook his head slightly.
He could also feel that feeling of powerlessness.
Although it looks normal, the crazy desire has already been injected into the soul.
No one can save them except themselves!
“Huh?”
He suddenly seemed to have thought of something and stared at Song Xiangu: “Besides the Xun, isn’t there also a severed hand among the relics?”
“Will it be able to help Linglong?”
Song Xiangu’s dim eyes suddenly flashed with a ray of hope, but after only a moment she shook her head: “The calamity of immortality is a test of human desires.”
“It looks like the bronze chessboard has trapped them.”
“But in fact, they are the ones who are trapped!”
She slowly stood up and walked towards the balcony with the help of her cane: “It’s useless…”
“it’s useless!”
Mr. Hei Qi also shook his head.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
“Neurotoxin?”
“It’s like drugs, right?”
Qian Wei’s eyes widened in sudden realization, and he looked at the shocked faces of the crowd in surprise.
“That’s it!”
“Before I joined the Security Service, I worked in a drug rehab center!”
“Put it this way!”
“It is impossible to overcome the control that drugs have over people by relying on willpower!”
Everyone’s faces darkened again.
They are all high-level intellectuals. Maybe they are not as professional as Qian Wei, but they also have basic knowledge!
Any substance that can affect the central nervous system is the power of the devil!
“That’s right!”
“The origin of human consciousness has not yet been fully deciphered.”
“But there is enough academic research to prove that human consciousness comes from matter.”
“That is to say, all of a person’s thoughts, desires, and emotions are actually the result of a series of chemical reactions in the neurons of the brain!”
“And drugs directly affect this chemical reaction, that is, they change a person’s soul!”
“I think the neurotoxin Zhang Xuan mentioned should have a similar effect.”
“And the effect may be stronger and more special!”
Kate Yang also said in a deep voice.
After a brief moment of surprise, Professor Chu looked around at everyone and said, “So… these people are really dead?”
After seeing Kate Yang’s acquiescent expression, he suddenly took a deep breath, and a glimmer of light appeared in his slightly cloudy eyes: “But Li Chunfeng’s layout can only prevent tomb robbers, but not us archaeologists!”
“If we can really determine the location of the ancient tomb, we can directly use large-scale mechanical equipment to excavate it!”
“To tell you the truth that cannot be reported, we have a way to dig out the two bronze chessboards and bring them back to the museum intact!”
“What a test!”
“It’s just childish and ridiculous wishful thinking!”
Several experts and scholars nodded in agreement after hearing this.
Qian Wei was shocked, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed to be the case.
“Huh~”
Kate Yang took off her glasses, rubbed her eye sockets, put them back on, and looked at Professor Chu with complicated eyes: “If you really do this.”
“What about Dragon Slayer?”
Professor Chu said seriously: “That’s easy!”
“After the excavation of the ancient tomb, just like the tomb of the Warring States Period, a special Li Chunfeng Tomb Museum will be built. The first exhibition hall upon entering is called the Dragon Slaying Hall!”
“What do you think?”
A group of scholars burst into laughter.
“Professor Chu, this is a good suggestion!”
“Dragon Slaying Hall!”
“It’s really a name that attracts tourists!”
Qian Wei frowned: “After all, there are still several lives up there!”
“Everyone, isn’t it inappropriate to joke like this?”
Professor Chu waved his hand and said, “Captain Qian, you are wrong!”
“Do you still sympathize with tomb robbers?”
“They deserve it!”
“Isn’t it?”
