C953 Unexpectedly
Fourth Boss from the First Army looked at Zhou Hao suspiciously. "That's right, I am. "
Originally, her identity and existence of the First Army were classified secrets of the country, but now that she was in such a dangerous situation, and it was her subordinates who exposed her identity, Fourth Boss did not deny it anymore.
She saw Zhou Hao frown. "Are you really the Fourth Boss of the First Army?"
He did not know why, but he knew that Fourth Boss from the First Army should not be the man in front of him.
Fourth Boss did not continue to explain. Instead, she said to Zhou Hao, "I will warn you one more time. Don't try to use those climbing tools to get through this stone room. Otherwise, I will kill you first!"
Zhou Hao sneered. Subconsciously, he did not want to become enemies with China, so he did not intend to attack the First Army just now. However, this did not mean that he was convinced by Fourth Boss.
However, now was not the time to think about this. If Zhou Hao wanted to pass through the stone room safely, he would have to rely on the Zhou Yi hexagram carved on the stone wall.
At the same time, he had to be wary of Hideki Shunichi and the others. It would be best if he could get rid of them at the same time as passing through this stone room!
"Young master, what should we do?" Yu Long asked in Zhou Hao's ear.
Zhou Hao thought for a while, then said to Yu Long, Kanzaki Shougo and the others, "Later, you guys follow my footsteps closely. Remember that I stepped on that stone pillar. Also, remember the sequence. Don't step on the wrong one. "
After saying that, Zhou Hao took a deep breath and jumped out of the entrance. He landed lightly on a stone pillar with the word "Kun" engraved on it.
Kanzaki Shougo and Yu Long were shocked by Zhou Hao's sudden movement. They heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Zhou Hao standing on the stone pillar without breaking it.
Fourth Boss and Hideki Shunichi, who were in the stone room, also stared at Zhou Hao with their eyes wide open. They wondered whether he was lucky or really broke the hexagram on the stone wall.
They saw Zhou Hao standing on the stone pillar with one foot. He looked at the other stone pillars in front of him with a fierce gaze. Then he jumped up again and landed on the stone pillar with the word "no. " on the left side.
The stone pillar was still intact, without any signs of breaking.
Zhou Hao also heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He jumped again and shouted at Kanzaki Shougo and the others at the same time, "Quickly follow them!"
Kanzaki Shougo, Ishida Yulong and the others came back to their senses. They hurriedly followed Zhou Hao's "route" one after another.
At this time, Zhou Hao, who was as agile as a ghost, had already arrived at the center of the stone room. Fourth Boss and the rest of the people from the First Army, as well as Hideki Shunichi and the others, were confronting each other on the left and right.
When Zhou Hao reached the center of the stone room, Hideki Shunichi and Fourth Boss took out their pistols at the same time and shot at Zhou Hao at the same time.
Although Zhou Hao did not attack Fourth Boss and the others, First Army had received orders before coming to Penglai Island that they could not let anyone else get their hands on that thing when they found it. Therefore, the First Army didn't want Zhou Hao to be ahead of them.
Zhou Hao, on the other hand, had been guarding against them. His body moved in the air and dodged the bullet. At the same time, he pushed his palms to the left and right, sending out strong wind from his palms. The wind made the people on both sides sway. They did not have the strength to attack Zhou Hao anymore.
While Hideki Shunichi and Fourth Boss were busy stabilizing themselves and did not fall off the stone pillar, Zhou Hao had already arrived at the exit on the other side of the stone room. Kanzaki Shougo and the others followed him one by one. At least they were safe and sound.
When Kanzaki Shougo stepped on the thick ground of the exit, he looked back at the bottomless abyss.
Then he asked Zhou Hao, "Young Master, how did you do it? How did you solve the hexagram in such a short period of time? We can all see that it is a very profound subject in China's Zhou Yi Profound studies. "
" What do I know about Zhou Yi Profound studies? " Zhou Hao smiled and nodded his head. "It is my own intuition. "
"Fourth Boss. " Both Hideki Shunichi and Fourth Boss heard what Zhou Hao said, but they did not believe him at all.
Because they were able to come there because they had used all their wisdom to decipher the hexagram on the stone wall, but they could only decipher half of it. So they could only stay in the middle of the stone room and could not take another step forward.
When Zhou Hao reached the exit, a series of rumbling sounds came from the stone room for a long time.
Hideki Shunichi, who was just about to follow Zhou Hao's "route," was scared by the sound of the mechanism and didn't dare to move.
Zhou Hao smiled at them and said, "The mechanism in this stone room doesn't seem to be fixed, because there are many different ways to solve the hexagram on the stone wall. If someone can step on those stone pillars in the correct order, the mechanism in this stone room will change once.
The next group of people will have to go through in a different order. Otherwise, hmph hmph hmph. . . If you don't believe me, you can try. "
Hearing what Zhou Hao said, Hideki Shunichi and "Fourth Boss" indeed did not dare to act rashly.
However, Zhou Hao suddenly waved a few sharp fingers towards Hideki Shunichi. Hideki Shunichi was shocked and quickly jumped to dodge. But Zhou Hao had already guessed his escape route. The other three fingers were already waiting for Hideki Shunichi in that direction!
"Puff! Puff! Puff! "
Hideki Shunichi's body was directly pierced through by these three fingers, and all of them were vital parts. Fresh blood immediately splashed out.
He also did not have the strength to maintain his body in the air. His face was pale as he fell down. He did not manage to step on any of the stone pillars. He just fell straight into the bottomless abyss.
"Leader!" Hideki Shunichi and the others shouted at the top of their lungs.
"Fourth Boss" was also staring at Zhou Hao with fear. She knew that this man's strength was unfathomable. She was afraid that she was no match for him. Furthermore, she was still standing on these stone pillars, unable to move at all. If Zhou Hao wanted to attack them, she was afraid that she would be completely wiped out.
Fortunately, Zhou Hao only gave them a deep look. He didn't even bother to deal with Hideki Shunichi's subordinates. He just turned around and continued walking forward. Kanzaki Shougo and the others also followed him.
The stone room with Zhou Yixuan as the mechanism was clearly the last checkpoint of this huge underground cave. When Zhou Hao and the others passed through the long stone corridor, they arrived at a stone room the size of a basketball court.
In this stone room, other than the floor, the other five stone walls were carved with lifelike dragons. In the stone room, there were dozens of stone pillars, which were also carved with different shapes of dragons. There were majestic and ferocious dragons.
In the center of the stone room, where the nine dragon stone pillars were surrounding, there was a square stone platform. The stone platform was also engraved with dragon diagrams, and it exuded a grand and solemn aura.
"That. . . That. . . " Kanzaki Shougo and the others were completely stunned.
In this stone room that was filled with the style of the feudal dynasty in China, And in the center of the stone room, there was a magnificent dragon stone platform that signified that this place was unusual.
Including Zhou Hao, everyone who came to this stone room couldn't help but think of the national treasure that those emperors would flock to every time China changed its dynasties.
Imperial Jade Seal!
That's right, Zhou Hao's extremely accurate intuition was telling him that the Imperial Jade Seal was here!
Slowly, Zhou Hao walked towards the stone platform.
It was as if every step was incomparably heavy. As he walked towards the grand stone platform, all sorts of legends related to the Imperial Jade Seal surfaced in Zhou Hao's mind.
It was said that it was the symbol of the Heavenly Sovereign's Authority. After obtaining it, one would become an emperor's talent acknowledged by the heavens.
It was said that it represented the weight of the country. Its importance was not inferior to the ancient Nine Cauldrons that symbolized the world.
Legend has it that it contained a profound and unfathomable cultivation technique that could allow one to return to their youth.
With these distracting thoughts lingering in his mind, Zhou Hao finally arrived in front of the stone platform.
The stone platform was squarish. Other than the side that was close to the ground, the other five sides were lifelike dragon diagrams.
Zhou Hao slowly placed his hand on the stone platform and slowly rubbed it, trying to find the mechanism on it.
"Rumble rumble rumble!"
The sound of a mechanism suddenly came from the wall on the left side of the stone room. Then, a small stone door slowly opened to the side. Then, a black shadow flew out from the side and landed on the ground in front of him. It was actually a person!
This person had a medium build. He was wearing black clothes and black pants. His face was also covered with a layer of cloth, and only two green eyes could be seen.
Furthermore, even though they were very far away, Kanzaki Shougo and the others could clearly feel that person's body was emitting a strange and terrifying aura that seemed to come from hell.
Zhou Hao also turned his head to look at the person who had suddenly appeared, and this person was also sizing up Zhou Hao.
Their eyes met in the sky just like that. Zhou Hao could see that there was an unusual killing intent hidden in this man's eyes.2
This kind of killing intent was something Zhou Hao had never seen before. It was as if this guy was born to kill.
"You are someone sent by Nanami Kaoru?"
What Zhou Hao and Kanzaki Shougo didn't expect was that this person used a proper Mandarin to say such a sentence, and it immediately revealed Zhou Hao's origin.
A flash of inspiration flashed across Zhou Hao's heart, and then he fixed his eyes on this man. He said word by word, "Hideki Shunichi?"
Yu Long, Kanzaki Shougo, and the others were shocked when they heard this.
Hideki Shunichi?
Wasn't Hideki Shunichi killed by Zhou Hao in that stone room just now, and he even fell into that bottomless abyss?
"That guy in that stone room, is he your substitute?" Zhou Hao continued.
The man in black didn't deny it, which meant he had tacitly agreed with Zhou Hao's words.
