Hearing the word "money," everyone seemed to gain courage out of nowhere.
Young Master Liu also curved his lips into a smile and nodded, "Heh, exactly, what's there to fear? With Master Hu here, nothing will happen!"
*Crack!*
At this moment, the stone slab rose and then stopped. The previous stone pillars were all hidden beneath, and it was clearly visible that a faint light was emanating from below. Young Master Liu was extremely excited, as the tomb door had apparently opened.
But just then, Ling Feng's indifferent voice echoed throughout the area, "Is it really nothing that will happen?"
Young Master Liu frowned slightly upon hearing this and looked at Ling Feng, "What do you mean by that?"
Master Hu squinted his eyes, staring intently at Ling Feng, and shook his head dismissively, "What? You understand this stuff?"
Ling Feng turned to look at Master Hu, "Even if you understand it, you might not understand it all!"
"What do you mean by that?" Master Hu's brow furrowed. He could naturally tell that Ling Feng's words had a hidden meaning. This feeling made Master Hu very uncomfortable. He hated people who spoke cryptically!
Ling Feng, however, walked unhurriedly out of the tree hole!
"What are you doing?!" Young Master Liu's eyes widened in anger, and he directly aimed his pistol at Ling Feng.
*Whoosh!*
But Ling Feng casually waved his hand, and a sound of air being broken followed. The pistol in Young Master Liu's hand exploded! The powerful impact even caused blood to ooze from the base of Young Master Liu's thumb. Ling Feng, however, said indifferently, "I told you, what I do is never for you to point fingers at!"
"Bastard!" The sword cultivator moved to protect Young Master Liu, cursing angrily and about to attack Ling Feng, but was interrupted by Ling Feng's next words!
"I advise you, don't lift the tomb door. It's already your luck to have a tomb path to walk through." With his words, Ling Feng had already walked out of the tree hole with Zhou Jin!
The surrounding people were stunned for a moment. But then, someone quickly came to bandage Young Master Liu's hand! Young Master Liu's brow furrowed, and he instinctively looked at Master Hu beside him! Clearly, he was asking for Master Hu's opinion.
Master Hu's mouth twitched, and he snorted, "Hmph, talking nonsense. I've already solved the mechanisms of this tomb door, there can't be any problems. Carry it out now. Although this thing is very heavy, its material is meteorite iron, extremely rare meteorite iron. It's sold by the gram after being taken out! It's very valuable!"
Greedy for wealth! Young Master Liu waved his hand at the people around him, "Move!" As the people began to move, Young Master Liu, along with the medical personnel beside him, the sword cultivator, and Master Hu, also walked out of the tree hole. Their departure made it convenient for everyone to lift the tomb door.
However, for Young Master Liu, it was because he saw Ling Feng leave the tree hole with Zhou Jin and stand ten meters away under a tree that he walked out so readily. Otherwise, if the few of them stood on top, the people around would have lifted them along with the tomb door below.
"Bastard!" Young Master Liu felt the stinging pain in his hand and glared back at Ling Feng. If it weren't for the need to prevent the mechanisms below from being triggered and to avoid any accidents, he would have killed Ling Feng earlier. He just didn't expect Ling Feng's strength to be so formidable, and now he would have to plan carefully how to deal with Ling Feng and the other person.
At this moment, Zhou Jin looked at the people who, with great effort, were lifting the thousand-jin massive stone tomb door, and his brow furrowed. He cautiously asked Ling Feng, "Heavenly Venerate, there are still mechanisms beneath this, aren't there?"
"Yes!" Ling Feng uttered a single word, which explained everything! Their conversation was not quiet, and the sword cultivator and Master Hu, who were already eavesdropping, caught it immediately. The two exchanged glances!
"There are mechanisms beneath." The sword cultivator couldn't help but ask. This question made Young Master Liu beside him tremble all over. Master Hu's eyes also widened, and he glared back at Ling Feng, "Hmph, how is that possible!"
Young Master Liu was about to breathe a sigh of relief. But then, the people who had already lifted the tomb door started screaming!
"Ah! What is this?!"
"It hurts so much, snakes, snakes are biting me, there are snakes!"
"They bit me to death, help!"
"Help me, quick, save me..."
In the blink of an eye, seven out of fifteen or sixteen people were writhing. Their bodies seemed fine, but looking at the few people inside who were twisting their bodies around the tomb door, and even falling into the tomb path, everyone couldn't help but tremble all over. Where were the snakes around these people? They had suddenly gone mad, but their pained expressions didn't seem like they were faking it! How could people go mad for no reason?
"What's going on?" Seeing his subordinates decimated by two-thirds in the blink of an eye, Young Master Liu's expression changed drastically, and he turned to question Master Hu. His attitude was no longer the same as when he was praising Master Hu earlier. Master Hu's eyes also widened, clearly, he himself couldn't believe what he was seeing!
Watching the writhing figures finally cease moving on the ground, it was certain that all these people were dead! But there was nothing around them? Master Hu then picked up the compass and, ignoring Young Master Liu's questioning, hurried towards the tomb door. Seeing this, Young Master Liu couldn't help but want to stop Master Hu. After all, they still needed Master Hu for what was to come. If the people who were doing the heavy lifting died, it was fine, but if Master Hu died, the operation here would basically be declared a failure! Therefore, Young Master Liu naturally didn't want Master Hu to go to his death! The situation over there was truly quite perilous!
"Master Hu, stop!" Before Young Master Liu could speak, the sword cultivator had already called out to stop him. But Master Hu seemed not to hear, and in a flash, he reached the tomb door, the compass in his hand changing constantly.
"Magnetic field, how could this be? The magnetic field fluctuated greatly just now, could it be that there really are mechanisms beneath this meteorite tomb door?!" Master Hu muttered to himself and then directly crawled into the tomb path. Half of his body was already inside. Everyone who saw this couldn't help but gasp.
Zhou Jin also narrowed his eyes and subconsciously said, "This person is truly bold!"
"Because he knows that once the tomb door is put back, there will be no danger!" Ling Feng explained casually. These words were heard by the surrounding people again! Master Hu suddenly crawled out from inside and glared back at Ling Feng, "You, you knew all along that there was West Region Fire Dragon Oil in the mechanism below. When the tomb door is lifted, oxygen enters, and the burning flame will produce high temperatures! Under the high-temperature burning, the magnetic field of the tomb door changes, and the emitted magnetic field rays can cause hallucinations!"
Everyone listened with a bit of bewilderment but still subconsciously looked at Ling Feng. Did this person know everything from the beginning? Ling Feng's expression was calm, and he nodded at Master Hu, "Yes, I knew long ago."
