C1414 Unexpected mechanism
When Wang Xijun was in the hands of the opposing yoga master, Zhou Hao did not dare to act rashly, but if the opponent hurt Wang Xijun, he would be filled with regret. He was powerful, Supreme Expert, but the opponent was not weak either, the strength of the opposing yoga master was already at the peak, it was completely possible for him to make a move before Wang Xijun.
Thomas also knew that someone like Xiao Yifeng could not be forced into a corner. Waving his hand, he said to Zhou Hao, "Mr. Zhou Hao, actually, it is already extremely difficult for us to make it here. Both you and I know clearly in our hearts that there must be many treasures in this underground palace.
"Of course, with Mr. Zhou Hao's background, even if you say that you are not interested in the treasures here, it is still understandable, but I heard that in the ancient Chinese palace, there are many things that cannot be measured by their value, you just want to see what is considered a priceless treasure, and what is a peerless treasure." Thomas was indeed worthy of being trained by a negotiation expert.
Zhou Hao was also a normal person, even after he had reincarnated, he had a hundred billion yuan in wealth that he had seen before, but in reality, he was not a money grubber, and he did not earn money for money. Hearing Thomas's words, he did want to see some priceless treasure, but it was not to take away his personal wealth, or to sell it for profit, he wanted to preserve some national treasure for the country.
At the time when the Qing Dynasty was about to fall, how many treasures had been snatched away by the Eight Nations Alliance? Now, another treasure house appeared in front of him, and if he was unable to protect it with all his might, he would call himself a descendant from the Yan Huang Clan. However, he could not tell Thomas about all these, and could only silently watch as everything happened, and carefully observe what mechanisms might appear.
It was just as he said, there were a lot of rich people but there were many things that could not be bought with money. No matter how rich Zhou Hao was, he was still a young man, he did not have any curiosity and did not want to search for treasures, which was simply impossible. Thomas felt that he had found the right weakness of Zhou Hao.
However, Wang Xijun was still under the control of a yoga master, and he did not want her life saving talisman to be taken away by Zhou Hao just because she was careless. She was someone who was relatively close to the Supreme Expert, and could be considered to be the person who understood the dangers of the Supreme Expert the most.
"I'll walk forward later, you must follow me step by step. If anything happens, you can't blame me. I'll try my best to walk slowly. If there are any traps, I'll break them all." Zhou Hao felt it, and turned his head to Thomas and the other two, and said with a deep voice.
When he was speaking, he gave Wang Xijun a look, the tacit understanding between the two of them was something that no outsider could understand, he wanted Wang Xijun to be at ease, he was sure that he could save her, but the time was not right, and after a while, everything would be fine. Zhou Hao's eyes were there to comfort Wang Xijun, although there was no actual meaning, but it could ease Wang Xijun's anxiety.
Thomas trusted Zhou Hao a lot at this time. Since he said that, he nodded his head without hesitation: "Don't worry, we won't go wrong, lead the way first. If there's any danger, I hope you can remind us.
Not only was he despicable and shameless, he was even continuously threatening him. Since his rebirth, when had Thomas ever felt so stifled? Thomas had thought that he would have the upper hand and held the hostage but he didn't know that this would deepen the hatred Zhou Hao had towards him, and even dug his own grave ahead of time.
He was the first to open the hall's door. Just now, he had observed that there shouldn't be any danger in this place, otherwise he would still choose to destroy the door. Of course, this time, Zhou Hao probably wouldn't be able to destroy the door either.
In the main hall of the palace, however, there were two coffins standing out in the air. Zhou Hao did not study much on wood, but to be able to place it here, it was definitely not an ordinary wooden coffin. After several hundred years, there were no signs of decay, it was truly a strange sight.
The hall gave off a golden and beautiful feeling, naturally it lacked the eeriness of a tomb. At the same time Zhou Hao saw the hall, Thomas and the others also saw it, although it was made of gold paint and jade, they did not see any treasure, and unconsciously fixed their eyes on the two coffins.
The foreigner was different from the Chinese, the Chinese might consider digging and robbing tombs to be a wicked act, but the foreigner did not have these considerations, they felt that putting these treasures in the coffins was a waste, and might as well use them. Since the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, it had already been five hundred years, and any jade artifact was an antique.
"Zhou Hao, the treasure should be inside the coffin, let's take action, take a look and see if there are any more traps." Thomas thought that the treasure would be inside the coffin, and impatiently urged Zhou Hao.
Zhou Hao thought for a moment, then said to Thomas: "Which one of you take off your shoes, let me use it, I'll try the mechanism inside, I only have a few items on me, I already don't have any, quickly, or else everyone will leave together."
His attitude was extremely unyielding. Thomas didn't know if he really needed to use shoes, or if he did it on purpose, but he wanted to let that yoga artist who didn't do anything take off one of his shoes and pass it to him. He really wanted to see what Zhou Hao wanted to do.
As he walked over, he did not believe that the mechanisms in the hall were any worse than the ones outside. When he walked from the entrance of the palace to the entrance of the hall, their maps indicated that they were safe.
These two yoga masters practiced yoga every day and tortured themselves very hard. They really didn't know if they could continue to practice yoga every day without spending too much time drinking.
Zhou Hao thought as he held the shoe in his hand. His Inner Qi instantly pierced through the cloth shoe, and looking at the outer appearance, it didn't look like any special cloth shoe at all. Immediately, it weighed four or five kilograms, and was even heavier than a normal tile.
With his arm strength, adding on the shoes that had been infused with his Spirit Qi, he was almost the same weight as an ordinary person when he landed on the ground. If there was a trap there, with one hit from Zhou Hao, the mechanism would be activated.
After a "pata" sound, there was no response from the surrounding area. Zhou Hao's point of choice was obviously not the place to activate the mechanism, and was at least five metres away from them. This was only when he considered the lack of strength of the other three, and knew that if they were too far away, he would not be able to catch up.
As an American secret service agent, even if Thomas wasn't as good as these Martial Arts Master, it would still not be a problem for him to jump five meters in one go. As for the other two yoga masters, they would not have to worry.
A few seconds after Zhou Hao's feet landed on the ground, he realized that there were no problems and also jumped up, landing at the spot where the shoes had fallen. When his feet landed on the ground, his internal energy was still circulating within his body, his lightness skills reached the pinnacle, and standing on top of the cloth shoes, the cloth shoes did not even have folds, as if the shoes could support Zhou Hao's energy.
Although Thomas and the others were not far from Zhou Hao, no one expected Zhou Hao to be so cautious, even though he was still a distance away from the ground, no one could tell. After he bent down to pick up the cloth shoes, he only needed to support on this point, but unfortunately, his Qing Gong was very powerful.
After Zhou Hao landed on the ground, he did the same thing as before, and once again threw his shoes five meters away in front of him. After waiting for that time when there wasn't any danger, he jumped over again, and left the previous position with Thomas and the other two, who knew if the rest of them were safe or not, after landing on the ground, Thomas followed them to the previous landing spot.
When Zhou Hao once again advanced five meters, the yoga master controlling Wang Xijun jumped to the place where she had stepped on the first time, while Thomas also took a step forward due to this, the position was exactly as Zhou Hao said before. Those who dared to go all out, except Zhou Hao, no one else.
Zhou Hao no longer had any strange premonitions, and he didn't know which direction was more dangerous. He circulated all the inner strength in his body to increase his sense of danger, and at the same time, allowed himself to react more quickly to sudden accidents. When he threw the cloth shoes out for the fourth time, he was only thirty meters away from the coffin.
When everyone thought it was safe, it suddenly erupted. There were five people in total, and after entering the hall, the last yoga master landed at the spot where the four had been standing before. There was no collapse, but everyone heard a mechanical sound.
Then, they saw a steel door that was as thick as an arm suddenly drop down from the entrance, sealing off the entire palace. Then, a few cracks appeared on the floor, splitting the entire hall into several pieces.2
He did not even think about what this mechanism was, nor did he know the reason behind all of this. For a moment, he did not dare to act rashly, and since Zhou Hao did not move, the others naturally did not dare to move as well. Coincidentally, the yoga master who had originally grabbed onto Wang Xijun was actually broken free from her trance, and the location where Wang Xijun was located was also separated away from him.
