As soon as Zhang Hao finished speaking, he saw that the bellies of the Wang family members swelled up immediately after inhaling the white fluff.

Their bellies were like balloons being inflated, their skin getting thinner and thinner until finally they exploded with a "bang," scattering bits of flesh and internal organs everywhere, utterly dead.

Everyone was stunned by what they saw, and cold sweat poured down their foreheads.

Everyone could only cover their mouths and noses and wait quietly until the white snowflakes fell to the ground again before they dared to speak.

"call……"

"I'm suffocating! What the hell are those white fluffy things on the ground? And they died such gruesome deaths!"

"It's the spores of the nine-headed cypress. When inhaled, they absorb water and expand rapidly, taking root and sprouting until the skin bursts open."

Although the flashlight beam did not illuminate the corpse on the ground, Zhang Hao had night vision and could clearly see that a two-foot-tall hydrangea cypress had grown out of the corpse's stomach, even in complete darkness.

He never expected that the Hydra Cypress could reproduce so strongly; once inhaled into a human body, it could take root and sprout in no time.

If these spores were to spread to the outside world, it would certainly cause a disaster.

Fortunately, although they are powerful, their ability to spread does not seem to be very strong, otherwise the world would have been covered by Hydra Cypress long ago.

"Brother Zhang Hao, do you think those members of the Wang family knew that these spores couldn't be inhaled? Then why did they deliberately make a commotion to make the spores fly up?"

"It's easy to understand; they want to use these spores to take us down with them."

The fat man was even more puzzled by Zhang Hao's answer.

"If they can use spores to fight us, why do they have to choose to perish together with us?"

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Hao concluded that there was only one reason: the Wang family's punishments were very severe, and if anything unexpected happened, it would likely be more than just losing one's life.

The Wang family's punishments terrified them, and they preferred to perish together with each other.

"That's right, when the Wang family makes a mistake, they are sent to the human-snake symbiosis facility to create black flies!"

Zhang Qilin interjected after hearing Zhang Hao's answer.

"What, Black Flying Spy?"

"You mean those black flying machines whose limbs and spine are controlled by black-haired snakes?"

"That's right!"

"That's terrifying! It's truly worse than death!"

After learning about the Wang family's punishments from Zhang Qilin, everyone could understand why those who were arrested preferred to die together with the victims rather than simply escape.

"Alright, now we know the reason. Fortunately, the Wang family made their move in advance, otherwise we might have really fallen into their trap. Now let's think about how to get through this!"

Zhang Hao had just tested it; even the vibration of footsteps would make the spores fly up, so crossing the log bridge directly was definitely not an option.

"Let's fly over there! Didn't we fly over the abyss before?"

Jie Xiaohua glanced at the fat man: "There are no wind pillars down here, how can we fly?"

"Since Uncle is strong, why don't you just throw us all over there one by one?"

Zhang Hao glanced at Xie Xiaohua, wondering how he came up with this idea.

He glanced at the opposite side of the tomb chamber, which was about thirty or forty meters away from them. It would be easy to throw someone over there.

Throwing someone over there with that much force is not much different from jumping off a 40-meter-high building; it's not something an ordinary person can withstand.

"Fatty, do you still have any climbing ropes?"

Zhang Hao suddenly asked.

"It's all gone. We used it all up when we came down from the cliff."

"Uncle, I still have some in my backpack, it should be long enough."

Huo Xiuxiu put down her backpack and took out a bundle of climbing ropes.

Zhang Hao took the rope and glanced at it. It was an unused, complete bundle of 100 meters, more than enough length to get to the other side.

When he was getting the climbing rope, he saw a yin-exploring claw in Huo Xiuxiu's backpack and took it out as well.

Zhang Hao first secured the grappling hook to one end of the climbing rope, then aimed at the top of the opposite exit, and finally gave it a powerful swing.

The Yin-Probing Claw, carrying the climbing rope, flew towards the other side with a "whoosh," and the next second, with a loud "bang," the Yin-Probing Claw was embedded in the stone wall.

Everyone was stunned by Zhang Hao's actions.

Even at a distance of tens of meters, the Yin-Searching Claw was able to embed itself completely into the stone wall. How much strength would that require?

You know, even if I were standing right in front of the stone wall, I absolutely couldn't do that.

"Fatty, secure this end of the climbing rope. We'll slide across it."

"Roger that!"

The fat man responded and began to move. He chose the highest spot to secure the climbing rope, and after securing it, he hung up there and swayed for a while to make sure it was stable before preparing to cross.

Zhang Qilin went first, to prevent any sudden danger from happening to the other side.

Next up are Wu Tianzhen, Xie Xiaohua, Huo Xiuxiu, and Fatty.

"call out……"

The fat man attached the safety buckle to the climbing rope, lifted his foot off the ground, and slid off quickly to the other side.

"Crack!"

As he slid to the center of the tomb, the safety buckle suddenly made a strange noise, and he stopped.

"Fatty, what's wrong?"

"The safety catch is damaged and stuck; it looks like it's about to break!"

"Fatty, take the safety buckle off and just slide it across with your hand!"

Upon seeing the situation that had occurred to the fat man, Xie Xiaohua immediately shouted something.

The fat man glanced at the distance and realized that he was not far from the other side. He decided to slip his hand, as it might cause injury, but it was still within an acceptable range.

So he started to remove the safety buckle.

He fiddled with it for a long time, but nothing came of it.

"The safety buckle is stuck on the climbing rope. If it's removed, the entire climbing rope will break!"

When the fat man realized he couldn't remove the safety buckle, he simply cut the rope binding him to his body to prevent the climbing rope from breaking.

Just then, a small piece of rope fell off him.

When that small piece of rope fell onto the log bridge, the bridge trembled slightly.

With just this slight tremor, the white velvet flowers on the ground immediately received the force of the vibration and flew off the log bridge with a "whoosh".

"Fatty, hold your breath!"

Wu Tianzhen shouted.

The fat man saw the corpse on the ground with its belly ripped open and, fearing he would suffer the same pain, immediately held his breath.

"Crunch, crunch..."

Just then, a strange noise came from the spot where the safety buckle on the climbing rope was stuck.

Looking in that direction, Zhang Hao saw that the damaged safety buckle was about to cut the climbing rope. Once the climbing rope broke, the fat man would fall onto the log bridge below.

The fat man's weight would surely cause all the white velvet flowers in the tomb to flutter.

Once that time comes, everyone in the tomb will be in danger.

Just then, a loud "bang" was heard, and the climbing rope snapped instantly. The fat man grabbed a section of the climbing rope and fell downwards.

"Fat!"

Upon seeing this, the people on the other side exclaimed in alarm. Once the fat man fell, there was no chance of him surviving. Everyone became anxious, but they were powerless and did not know how to save him.
