System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

Chapter 314

Zhang Hao shook his head: "Even a dragon as powerful as it is could not create such a commotion."

He closed his eyes and listened carefully. Suddenly, he felt the sound approaching from afar. In just a moment, it was right in front of him, and the booming sound was exceptionally clear and could not be ignored.

"It's the wind!"

Zhang Hao clearly sensed that the noise was caused by the wind. Although he didn't know where the wind was coming from, he sensed that it was caused by the wind flowing inside the mine.

"wind?"

Zhang Qilin said in a deep voice, which echoed in the narrow mine tunnel, adding to the sense of urgency.

"Do you guys feel that this sound is rhythmic, like the syllables produced by some kind of musical instrument?"

Xie Xiaohua was Er Yuehong's apprentice. She had studied opera with him and had a profound understanding of music. She was better at distinguishing voices than others.

What instrument is it?

Zhang Hao asked curiously.

Xie Xiaohua shook her head: "I don't know, I've never heard it before. I feel like this sound is coming from a large musical instrument. This instrument is huge, how can I describe it? It's even bigger than the ancient city we just saw!"

"Where in the world is there such a large musical instrument? Xiaohua, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"Look, there are several corpses over there!"

Just then, Huo Xiuxiu suddenly pointed to the front of the mine and exclaimed in surprise.

"Could it be someone from the Wang family?"

"Go over and have a look!"

Zhang Hao, Wu Tianzhen, and the others quickened their pace and walked towards the corpse.

The body was already mummified, and it was wearing a military uniform from the Republic of China era decades ago.

The fat man squatted down and turned the mummified corpse over, as if searching for clues on the body.

Why is the character "Zhang" embroidered on all the clothes?

"And their fingers are just like the guy's, with two particularly long ones."

Zhang Hao recognized the mummified corpse's fingers at a glance; they were the result of practicing the "Tomb Raider Finger" technique.

In addition, the character "Zhang" on the clothes and the style of the Republic of China era immediately made him think of a possibility.

"They must be from Zhang Jiajun's army!"

"Zhang Jiajun?"

Everyone present, except for the fat man, had some connection with the Nine Gates and naturally knew what Zhang Family Army was.

When the Zhang family's Holy Infant incident in Changbai Mountain, Northeast China, was exposed, coupled with the suppression by the hostile Wang family, the Zhang family was torn apart, and many clansmen migrated to various parts of the world.

Even so, they were still suppressed. Later, one branch of Zhang Dafoye's family moved to Shacheng and grew stronger. Many Zhang family members who had been scattered elsewhere went to Shacheng to seek refuge.

So Zhang Dafoye established the Zhang Family Army based on these clansmen.

Because the Zhang family members are physically stronger than ordinary people, coupled with their rigorous training from a young age, the Zhang family army has become an elite force, and many secret missions are carried out by them.

The presence of Zhang Jiajun in Gutongjing proves that Zhang Dafoye (Zhang the Great Buddha) also visited this place back then.

The fat man touched the mummies for a while longer, but found no other clues besides proving that the mummies belonged to Zhang's army.

Zhang Hao told Fatty and Xie Xiaohua to bury the mummified corpses and then continued along the mine tunnel.

The group continued onward, their footsteps echoing through the empty mine, mingling with the distant roar to create a strange rhythm.

As they approached the source of the sound, the stench in the air grew stronger, almost suffocating them.

Suddenly, the light ahead dimmed, and a huge cave appeared before them, with countless tiny stalactites hanging from the ceiling, shimmering eerily in the dim light.

The group slowly entered the cave, where a giant snake mine stood in the center. The surface of the snake mine was covered with a thick layer of dust, but the huge dragon inside could still be identified.

"This is... a dragon?"

The fat man's eyes widened in astonishment.

"Wasn't it said that the dragon of Gutongjing had died in battle? How come there's still a dragon in the snake mine?"

The system notification sounded in Zhang Hao's mind the moment he started digging into the giant snake ore.
