He got out of the depression, squatted, and hid with the help of steps.

Then he reached out and touched the cross, but no matter whether he pushed or pulled it out, it still remained motionless.

What the hell is this?

Shi Lei is actually very sure that this cross must be the place where the mechanism is, but why can't it move?

On the side, the guard's footsteps came. Shi Lei was shocked and hurriedly got into the sunken place again.

When he got into it, his toes stepped on a stone slab outside the sunken, and his hands were still holding the cross. The stone slab at the toes seemed to shake slightly.

Shi Lei did not dare to stay, so he got in, but suddenly he had the idea of ​​taking shape in his mind.

This mechanism is a linkage mechanism. You need to move two places at the same time to open the mechanism.

Wait patiently until the guard's footsteps completely disappeared. According to the experience of the previous two nights, Shi Lei knew that this was also the last time the guard had patroled. In more than half an hour, he would change shifts with his colleagues. Generally speaking, at this time, when the guard returns to the guards in the guard room, he should be closing his eyes and resting and waiting for the guards of the morning shift to take over.

After waiting in the sank for another two minutes, Shi Lei came out again.

This time, he was almost sure. He stepped on the stone slab just now and tried his best, but the stone slab did not move at all.

Then, he reached into the depression and grabbed the cross. While beating the cross, he used his toes to force his toes...

A slight cracking sound came from his ears, the stone slab under his feet tilted down, and the cross in his hand was finally pulled out of the crack of the rock by him.

Looking at the complete cross in his hand, Shi Lei heard extremely slight cracking sounds in the temple. He was very worried whether these sounds would shock the guards.

He stood up and hid behind a huge stone pillar. After waiting patiently for a while, the guard did not appear. Shi Lei probably estimated that either the guard did not hear the sound, or he did not think that the sound would have anything to do with the temple. Perhaps, he felt that this was a sound coming from outside the temple.

In any case, this was Shi Lei's last chance in May. He didn't care about it and entered the temple.

Shi Lei entered the temple with his head raised. He intuitively believed that this mechanism should be opened somewhere on the arch above his head. He was actually a little worried, because even if the arch was opened, with his current skills, he might not be able to climb up with the gecko wall.

He couldn't help but regret it. He would have brought some tools such as flying tiger claws if he had known it.

But soon, he discovered that there was no change in the vault.

With doubt, Shi Lei withdrew his gaze, but he could clearly hear the slight but continuous crackling sound in his ears.

Shi Lei lowered his head, and suddenly, he found a depression appeared on the marble floor in the center of the temple.

I walked over quickly, and it was really a sunken place.

That sunken place was a carved pattern on the original floor of the temple.

It was a perfect fit before. Shi Lei studied here for two nights, but he did not find any problems on the floor, and there was almost no gap.

However, the carved patterns here are clearly slowly sinking.

I'll go! This technology is amazing! It's so strict and even modern technology may not be able to do it, right?

Shi Lei didn't care about too much emotion, because the sag was getting deeper and deeper, revealing a black gap inside.

He took out a flashlight and shone it down. Shi Lei then found that there was something like a staircase on one side of the ground wall, but the staircase was directly carved on the ground wall.

After running quickly, Shi Lei climbed down the stairs.

It wasn't too deep. Shi Lei reached the ground at about five or six meters apart.

A narrow but lengthy passage appeared in front of Shi Lei's eyes.

He took out a lighter, lit it and shook it slightly. Under the ground, the air was obviously rotating and circulating. The lighter's flame was very healthy and there was no sign of lack of oxygen.

After emitting a strong flashlight, Shi Lei found that the corridor was really long, at least hundreds of meters.

After a brief judgment on the direction, Shi Lei found that the end of this corridor must have exceeded the scope of the temple.

If Shi Lei was looking forward now, he would most likely be unable to return to the original place before the guards changed shifts and inserted the cross he pulled back to its original place, then someone would soon find this place.

But if he doesn't move forward, Shi Lei can only choose to quit.

In any case, Shi Lei did not dare to take the risk. He did not hesitate too much and retreated directly.

Back from the stairs and back to the ground, Shi Lei stood behind the stone pillars of the temple and observed carefully, there was no figure outside.

Then he ran down the steps and inserted the cross in his hand back into the cracks of the rocks before.

A slight crack sound came out again. Shi Lei knew that the mechanism was restoring its original state. Soon, there was no gap on the floor in the temple.

Not to mention anything else, just because of the lack of gaps, Shi Lei had to sigh at the magical achievements of the ancient Greeks in architecture.

Unwilling to give up, he returned to the temple and saw the restoration of the sunken place.

A bold idea appeared in Shi Lei's mind.

The bottom is obviously not an underground palace, but more like the entrance to an underground palace.

According to the direction of the corridor, the underground palace seems to be outside the temple.

Based on the size of the corridor, Shi Lei felt that the underground palace connected to the other end of the corridor did not seem to be a place to hide things.

After all, if you just want to hide something, just build an underground palace under the temple.

Or, the thing to hide is too big and it is difficult to hide below the temple.

Or, in addition to the function of hiding things, this underground palace also has the function of hiding people.

If the hidden thing is too big, the underground palace will inevitably be impossible to have only one exit. After all, the size of this gap is absolutely impossible to put things that are too large in it.

This means that the underground palace has other exits.

If this underground palace has the function of hiding people, then there must be a way to open the mechanism from the inside of the underground palace. Otherwise, when people hide in it, they can only wait for people outside to open the passage. What if people outside die? Wouldn't they be buried alive?

Once this thought appeared, it was like planting grass in Shi Lei's heart. He could no longer bear such temptation. Without hesitation, he rushed over while the floor had not yet recovered and went down from the stairs to the ground.

Not long after, there was no light on his head. Shi Lei climbed on the stairs and searched for a long time with the strong flashlight in his hand. Even from the inside, he still couldn't find any gaps.

After sighing at the achievements of the ancient Greeks in architecture, Shi Lei went downstairs and walked forward carefully along the corridor.

After walking for more than 150 meters, Shi Lei discovered that the end of the corridor was not connected to an underground palace, but formed a turn.

Turning around, Shi Lei continued to move forward and walked more than a hundred meters again. His face became more and more open, and eventually, it turned into a stone chamber.

He raised his head and Shi Lei used the flashlight to light, the entire stone chamber was like a trapezoid.

The walls on both sides are angled, opposite is a wall that is more than ten meters high, and behind them is an exit that can only accommodate two or three people walking side by side.

Shi Lei knew that he had arrived at the place!

After walking around the three walls, Shi Lei carefully recalled the direction he was walking, and he made an amazing discovery.
