"Coffins are surging!"
Before Uncle Wu could speak, Zhang Qilin answered first.
"Coffin Surge? You mean that rare feng shui treasure site, Coffin Surge?"
Uncle Wu became very excited when he heard about the coffin.
"Third Uncle, why are you so agitated? What kind of auspicious burial sites haven't you seen over the years?"
"No, this is different. The Coffin Spring is a naturally formed fountain in front of the tomb chamber. The water inside will never overflow or dry up for thousands of years. It has the appearance of a vessel for storing things. People buried in it will have great fortune for their descendants."
Just as everyone was talking about the coffin, Zhang Hao suddenly walked to the pool, bent down, and scooped out a handful of water.
"Xiao Hao, what are you doing? You can't just drink the water in the tomb!"
Uncle Wu hurriedly stopped Zhang Hao when he saw what he was doing.
Zhang Hao smiled slightly; Uncle Wu had misunderstood him.
"Third Uncle, you misunderstood. The pool is a gravity mechanism. I am now changing the weight of the water inside to trigger the mechanism, and the door to the main tomb chamber will open immediately."
After merging with the spider, Zhang Hao gained the spider's sensory abilities, allowing him to clearly perceive everything within a ten-meter radius.
As soon as I entered the tomb chamber and approached the coffin, the mechanisms inside immediately came to mind.
"Rumble..."
Before Zhang Hao finished speaking, the sound of a mechanism turning came from inside the tomb, and a stone door appeared behind the coffin.
The stone gate split in two and slowly opened from the inside out.
"The tomb door has really opened!"
Pan Zi turned the searchlight towards the tomb entrance and exclaimed in surprise.
"Xiao Hao, this is your first time going into a tomb. You've never been exposed to these things before. How did you figure out that there was a mechanism inside the coffin?"
Uncle Wu looked puzzled.
Zhang Hao has changed so much during this period that it's understandable that his strength has become even greater than Da Kui's.
Without long-term accumulation, it's impossible to master the skills required for a short period of time.
"I read about it in an ancient book and was just thinking of trying it out. I didn't expect there to actually be a gravity mechanism."
Zhang Hao wasn't afraid of others' curiosity; he would simply attribute any questions to ancient texts.
Whether others believe it or not, that's the answer.
Uncle Wu obviously didn't believe it, but since Zhang Hao was unwilling to talk about it, he didn't want to delve any further.
Once the main tomb chamber door opened, Pan Zi adjusted the direction of the searchlight, allowing the light to shine through the door.
The main burial chamber was much larger than the outer burial chamber, at least several times larger.
In the center is a circular platform, and in the center is a stone coffin. Around the coffin are two kneeling lamp-lighting boys.
Just then, a few loud "booms" were heard, and the oil lamp in the lamp-lighting boy's hand lit up automatically, instantly illuminating the entire main tomb chamber.
In an instant, the entire tomb chamber became glittering with gold.
The walls of the entire tomb chamber are covered with small square grids, each about a foot square, and there are thousands of such grids throughout the chamber.
Each compartment is filled with an exceptionally exquisite antique.
There are gold, silver, jade, gemstones, porcelain...
Before they even entered the tomb, everyone outside was stunned.
"My goodness, so many treasures!"
Da Kui was drooling, and Pan Zi wasn't much better off.
Even the well-informed Uncle Wu was moved by it.
"These treasures are probably more than even the emperor's tomb could contain!"
"What are you waiting for? Let's go in!"
Seeing so many treasures, Da Kui had long forgotten the dangers inside the ancient tomb and couldn't wait to rush in.
"Let's go in and take a look. The exit should be in the main burial chamber."
Zhang Hao said something and followed.
In ancient times, after the completion of a large tomb, the tomb owner would kill all the craftsmen on the day of completion in order to prevent the location and information of the tomb from being revealed.
The craftsmen understood this, and when they first started building the ancient tomb, they would construct escape routes in hidden locations.
Entering the main burial chamber, the view from inside is even more breathtaking than from the outside.
The main burial chamber is over ten meters high, which is four or five times the height of the other burial chambers.
From bottom to top, the entire tomb chamber is made up of tiny, one-foot-wide grids for building houses; there isn't a single empty space in the entire chamber.
"stop!"
As soon as Zhang Hao entered the tomb chamber, he heard Zhang Qilin's roar.
Da Kui was already holding a gleaming golden Buddha statue in his hand.
Zhang Qilin's sudden roar startled him, causing him to lose his grip on the object in his hand and drop it to the ground, where it hit his foot, causing him to scream in pain.
"Hurry up and put those things back!"
Uncle Wu entered the main tomb chamber and saw this scene, and angrily rebuked it.
Da Kui was so frightened that he forgot to carry out Uncle Wu's orders.
"Boom!"
Just then, a loud crash came from behind them, and a huge rock suddenly fell, completely blocking the entrance.
At the same time, the sound of machinery turning could be heard inside the tomb.
The two walls on the east and west sides of the tomb chamber began to move towards the center.
In a short while, the space in the tomb chamber shrank by more than half. If it wasn't stopped in time, the two walls would crush a person into a pulp.
It was only then that Da Kui realized what had happened and hurriedly picked up the golden statue from the ground and put it back in its original position.
The moment the golden statue returned to its original position, a loud "bang" rang out, and the two moving walls also stopped.
“Useless things only cause trouble. I told them not to touch anything in the tomb before we went in.”
Uncle Wu walked up to Da Kui and slapped him to teach him a lesson.
"Yes, Third Master, it was my fault. I will definitely not do it again next time."
Da Kui knelt down on the ground and begged for mercy.
Uncle Wu shook his head and ignored him, turning around to explore the tomb chamber.
The more I looked at his face, the deeper the doubt became.
"How can two walls, each over ten meters high and over ten meters wide, move at such a fast speed?"
"It's groundwater. There's an underground river beneath the main burial chamber. The ancient tomb was designed with mechanisms utilizing the force of the water flow!"
Although the sound was very faint, Zhang Hao could still hear the gurgling sound of water coming from below the tomb.
Upon hearing this, Uncle Wu suddenly understood: "That's right, it is indeed groundwater. The design and construction of the entire ancient tomb are truly ingenious."
"Third Master, we've already checked the tomb chamber and found no exit. Do you think we should open the coffin?"
Panzi pulled Da Kui around the tomb chamber a few times, knocking here and hammering there, but they didn't find anything special.
Uncle Wu frowned and said, "Hmm, we need to open the coffin, but if this is the tomb of Guiguzi, doesn't everything seem to be going too smoothly?"
"Third Master, we've had a smooth journey, but it's a different story for others. Just look at those giant spiders outside the tomb. If it weren't for Xiao Hao and Xiao Ge, we wouldn't have been able to get in."
If we disregard the contributions of those two, we'd probably already be food for those spiders.
Upon hearing this, Uncle Wu realized that Pan Zi's words made sense.
The team wouldn't have gone so smoothly without Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin.
Ultimately, it was Zhang Hao and Zhang Qilin's strength that gave him the feeling that everything was going smoothly.
"Before opening the coffin, check if there are any hidden mechanisms on it, and only open it if it is safe to do so."
