After returning to the tomb, everyone continued to dig the top of the tomb.
Fatty raised his Corpse Capturing Claw and was about to dig when he was stopped by Wu Xie. He said,"Wait a minute. I don't know if there's any anti-theft mechanism like the quicksand layer. If you go down, the quicksand will bury us all alive.”
Everyone knew that he was telling the truth. Many ancient tombs would have a layer of anti-theft mechanisms installed at the dome. There was quicksand, mercury, kerosene, and so on.
Fatty heard his words and frowned.""Then what should we do? Are we still digging?"
" Fatty, don't move!" Chen Hao said." Let me check!"”
After saying that, he jumped onto the nanmu pillar and climbed to the top of the tomb along the grooves.
Then, Chen Hao extended his two extraordinarily long fingers and gently slid them across the top of the tomb. Suddenly, he exerted force and ruthlessly stabbed into the white plaster layer!
After peeling off the plaster around him. A small hole was revealed, and inside was a reinforced layer made of bluestone bricks mixed with iron paste.
Chen Hao frowned." It's a reinforced layer that's been poured with molten iron. Moreover, the purity of the molten iron is very high. With such a reinforced layer, it's fine even if a bulldozer hits it. It looks like we're in trouble now…"
However, Chen Hao wasn't willing to give up so easily. He asked Fatty to pass him the Corpse Capturing Claw and then dug with all his might.
As the claws dug into the ground, a series of sharp metal scraping sounds immediately sounded, like fingernails scratching a blackboard, making one's scalp tingle.
Although the Corpse Capturing Claw was said to be able to cut through iron like mud, it was still very strenuous when facing such a thick layer of iron liquid. After digging a few times, it only dug out a hole the size of a fist.
According to the structure of the Ming Dynasty ancient tomb, there was at least a 30-centimeter thick layer of iron liquid on it. It would take at least a few hours to dig through it.
Everyone could not help but frown. Wu Xie looked at his watch and said,"At this rate, we will need to dig for at least two hours, but there is only half an hour left before the tide ebb.”
" That can't be helped," Chen Hao said." If only there were explosives."”
"Where are we going to find explosives in this damn place?" Fatty asked anxiously. I think we should go back the way we came. Maybe the tomb where we put the oxygen tank is back. If we don't go out when the tide is low, we'll be down here for at least a week. There's not enough oxygen here. We'll starve to death in a week!”
At this moment, Nu You Ping said,""Wait, I remember a place with explosives!”
Without waiting for anyone to ask, he jumped directly above the model of the Cloudy Sky Palace and groped in front of a sitting corpse.
This dried corpse had been mentioned by Mui Youpin when he was describing his past. He said that there was something important hidden in the stomach of the corpse, but he did not open it to take a look.
Now, when everyone saw Muffled Oil Bottle groping the corpse, they immediately reacted.
"Oh, I see. I understand now!" Wu Xie said with a sudden realization.”
"What is he doing?" Fatty asked curiously. What do you understand?"
Wu Xie explained," I'm just guessing. There might be explosives hidden in the corpse that were activated by the Eight Treasures Wheel. If the grave robbers were disrespectful to the corpse, they would activate the Eight Treasures Wheel and the corpse would explode. The young man probably wanted to use the explosives in the corpse to blow up the top of the tomb.”
"Alright, brother." Fatty clicked his tongue. You're really something. You even thought of this."
As he spoke, the little brother had already arrived in front of everyone with the dried corpse. He said,"I need to tie the corpse to the top of the tomb with a rope.”
Hearing that, Wu Xie quickly took out a piece of rope from his backpack and handed it to him.
The young man took the rope and nimbly climbed up the pillar to the top of the tomb. He tied one end of the rope to the dried corpse and circled the other end along the pillar. Then, he connected it to the hole Chen Hao had dug out and tied the corpse to the top of the tomb.
After doing all this, there were only ten minutes left. Everyone carried Ah Ning on their backs and found cover to avoid the shock wave of the explosion.
Everything was ready to continue. The young man picked up a brick from the ground and threw it at the dried corpse.
Everyone only heard a loud bang, followed by a strong shock wave that spread from the top of the tomb, directly shaking the burial items on the ground.
The power of the bomb was very strong, and the shock wave almost sent everyone flying. Although they hid behind cover, they still felt as if they had been hit by a pile driver, and they felt dizzy.
After a while, everyone regained their consciousness. They quickly looked at the top of the tomb and saw that there was a large area of cracks.
"Creak!"
Then, there was the sound of a dragon bone breaking. Immediately, countless bricks fell from the top of the tomb like raindrops. Everyone quickly found a place to hide.
The top of the tomb completely collapsed, and countless seawater poured in through the gap, instantly drenching everyone.
The seawater was pouring in very quickly. Soon, more than half of the tomb was submerged, and it was still rising.
Everyone floated on the surface of the water, trying to escape through the gap. The water flow was too strong, and they could not stand up at all.
Amidst the chaos, Chen Hao suddenly saw a black shadow flash past. He focused his eyes and realized that it was the forbidden woman he had seen in the bandit cave.
The forbidden granny glared at Chen Hao with venomous eyes. A large clump of hair curled toward him. It looked like she wanted to take revenge on Chen Hao for spitting out a mouthful of blood and disfiguring her.。。
Seeing this, the young man next to him quickly pulled out his black gold ancient knife and slashed at the large ball of hair.
However, the Forbidden Granny's hair was extremely tough. The little brother's black-gold blade only managed to cut off a small tuft of hair, and a large amount of hair was still sweeping toward Chen Hao.
Chen Hao's expression was calm. He suddenly jumped to the side of the water and swam to the front of the forbidden woman at an extremely fast speed. At the same time, he took out the Hairmound Seal and fiercely imprinted it on the forbidden woman's forehead.
The Forbidden Granny obviously hadn't expected Chen Hao to swim so fast in the water. She was completely caught off guard.
The forbidden granny let out a wail and her body immediately melted into a puddle of black water.
"Ding! Killed Forbidden Granny. Obtained 200 Achievement Points.”
Instantly killing the forbidden woman, Chen Hao finally vented the anger that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time.
Chen Hao had been brooding over the fact that he had almost fallen into the hands of the forbidden woman in the Burglar Cave. Now that he had finally found the opportunity to get rid of this thing, he instantly felt much more at ease.
At this moment, the entire tomb chamber was filled with seawater. Chen Hao used the advantage of his Azure Dragon bloodline to quickly swim out through the opening and pull the others out one by one.
When he finally pulled Wu Xie up, he was stunned for a moment. Ah Ning had disappeared?
"Could it be that he took advantage of the chaos to escape?"
Chen Hao looked around and discovered that Ah Ning was swimming away on all fours in the seawater not far away. As expected, she had taken advantage of the chaos to swim out of the tomb ahead of time.
