Zhang Hao opened the other boxes one after another.
There were gold and jewelry, but the proportion was very small. Most of them were cold weapons and armor.
Just as Zhang Qishan had thought, Zhang Jiao did not leave much behind. The greatest value of the tomb was the books left behind.
After dividing the wealth equally, Zhang Hao looked at a statue in the center of the palace.
The statue was of a person sitting cross-legged. There was nothing strange about it.
However, Zhang Hao still found something wrong. Logically speaking, this was the center of the entire underground palace. Normally, nothing could be placed here, but there was a statue here.
"This Daoist has a sage-like demeanor, he doesn't look like Zhang Jiao!”Deputy Zhang touched the statue as he spoke.
" Don't touch it!" Master Eight shouted in horror." With your luck, I'm afraid it's another trap!"”
However, Lord Myna's words were still a step too slow. As he spoke, Adjutant Zhang touched the Taoist statue.
Although Deputy Zhang quickly retracted his arm, the statue still changed.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The statue slowly sank. Zhang Hao looked at the statue and saw it sink to the ground. If it sank any further, the entire statue would disappear.
An even louder mechanical sound rang out in the entire underground palace. Zhang Hao craned his neck to take a look. The statue was still sinking and had actually separated from the entire stone pillar.
"Oh no! It was empty below. Although he didn't know how Zhang Jiao did it, this palace would soon be covered by underground water! Run!" After saying that, Zhang Hao pulled the few of them and ran out of the palace.
The existence of the statue was like a plug. With the statue around, the underground water could not enter, but once the statue sank, the entire underground palace would be flooded.
Master Eight did not have the time to complain about Deputy Zhang. He quickly took his things and fled.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The sound of the water gushing out proved Zhang Hao's guess. The underground water was coming out from where the statue used to be, and the water was not small.
After running for a full ten minutes, they finally reached the other side of the bridge.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Master Eight panted heavily and held his waist.
"Deputy Zhang, don't touch those strange things in the future. I realized that you're just a trigger.”Master Eight said while panting heavily.
Adjutant Zhang also lowered his head. Including the mine he stepped on when he entered the tomb, he had already triggered the mechanism three times.
"Alright, Master Eight, don't say so much. Anyway, we already have the thing. Don't worry so much.”Zhang Qishan retorted.
Seeing that Lord Eight and the other two were about to leave, the corners of Zhang Hao's mouth curled up and he slowly said,"I'm afraid someone doesn't want us to leave!”
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The sound of water surged. The place where the ancient city used to be was flooded, and the entire huge karst cave became a large lake. Now, a vortex appeared in the lake, and the loud sound of water came from it.
"Lord Zhang, are we that unlucky? How many things did Zhang Jiao leave behind?”Master Eight asked regretfully.
Zhang Hao shook his head. This Zhang Jiao was ultimately a character from a thousand years ago. It was difficult for future generations to guess how many tricks he had left behind. However, with that strange dao art, Zhang Hao wouldn't be surprised by how many tricks he had left behind.
"Don't talk, it's coming out!"
Everyone quieted down. Zhang Hao quietly looked at the center of the vortex. A giant beast's head with scales and horns came out of it.
It had horns and whiskers, and it looked like a long snake. It had huge wings on both sides of its body. Zhang Hao also looked at the huge creature in front of him in surprise.
"Lord Zhang, do we not have to run anymore?”Master Eight's face was ashen. He looked at the Flying Snake and gave up on his desire to live.
Zhang Hao's expression was solemn. He looked at the ferocious beast head and clenched the long saber in his hand.
"Roar!" A Tao Wu burning with blue flames appeared behind Zhang Hao.
The two giant beasts roared at each other. The Flying Snake opened its huge mouth and spat out black venom.
"Run!" Zhang Hao roared angrily. The three of them immediately turned around and ran when they heard the roar.
Such a beast was not something a human could fight against. Seeing the three of them run away, Zhang Hao left Tao Wu behind and ran away as well.
"Roar!"
Unexpectedly, when the Flying Snake saw everyone running away, it only glanced at the Immortal Corpse behind Zhang Hao and slowly sank into the water.
Tao Wu also slowly dissipated under Zhang Hao's control and relaxed.
"Lord Zhang, we've escaped death this time!”Master Eight said.
Zhang Hao didn't say anything. He took a deep look at the Flying Snake that was sinking into the water.
Three hours later, Master Eight looked at the bright sunshine and let out a deep breath.
"It's still more comfortable outside, but my life is in danger every second inside. Lord Zeng, if you call me in the future, I won't come!”Lord Eight said with a face full of relief.
Adjutant Zhang had a deep understanding of this. Every second in the tomb was life-threatening, not to mention the evil creatures inside.
Zhang Hao pondered for a moment before recalling an important matter.
"Brother Zhang, I'm afraid we'll have to seal this place up. Although that Flying Snake is a tomb guardian beast, it's possible that someone will enter.”Zhang Hao said slowly to Zhang Qishan.
Zhang Qishan also nodded. Although there was nothing valuable inside, it would be troublesome if someone still refused to give up.
"Don't worry, I'll get someone to seal this place when I get back. I definitely won't let anyone else in.”
