Shen Yuan was a little annoyed and said, "Let's rest by the pool for the night. Master Qi and I will go check it out again to see if there are any other ways."
"No!"
I shouted loudly: "Climb this mountain again, don't you know how high it is!"
"Don't you live here?"
Shen Yuan asked back: "If it's like you said, there is the Dragon-Breaking Stone, what's the use of keeping it here! While it's not completely dark yet, everyone should work hard, otherwise we will really have to sleep here.
Already."
"Okay! It's whatever you say, okay, Master Shen!" I said angrily.
"Who pushed me!"
Just as Shen Yuan and I were arguing, Shale suddenly fell to the ground.
We looked in his direction and saw Shale lying alone next to the stone wall. There was no one at all.
"Ye...Brother Ye."
Shale quickly got up, panicked, and swallowed, "Just... someone pushed me just now."
Nervous! It couldn't be a sequelae of being stunned by the gunshots. He was the only one in the place where Silly was standing, and not a single ghost could be seen. Moreover, everyone stayed in their own places and no one moved.
I said, "Your legs are numb from standing, don't be paranoid. Just pack your things and get ready to leave."
Everyone reorganized their things and headed back to the entrance of the cave they came from.
"My uncle's!"
I complained in a low voice, "I have to climb like a cockroach again. It's easy to go up the mountain but hard to go down. I'm so tired when I climb up. If I climb down, half my life is gone."
"Silly! Hurry up!"
There was a circle of people standing at the entrance of the cave, except Silly Le, who couldn't help complaining about why he was still lingering behind.
Shale didn't answer. It was a bit weird. This was not like his character. Usually when he heard me calling him, he would have already agreed and ran over. The strangest thing was that the light of the flashlight on his body was no longer visible, and there was no movement at all.
No.
"Silly fun!"
I shouted inside again, "Shale, where have you gone?"
For a long time, there was no reply, and everyone frowned.
Wu Zijin said: "Lezi was still behind just now."
"What's wrong?" Shen Yuan in front asked.
"Shale hasn't come yet," I said.
Shen Yuan frowned and said, "Let's go and have a look!"
A bad premonition grew in their hearts, and everyone walked into the passage again.
The passage is still dark and gloomy
In the passage, I held the Wolf Fang flashlight and shined it on the stone wall blocking the way at the end of the passage. I was stunned.
Not only me, Wu Zipei's hands have started to tremble, Wu Zijin also turned blue with fear, Shen Yuan and Mao Tianlin's faces were gloomy and very ugly, even Xue Yue looked in disbelief that a living person was missing.
There was no trace of him, and he suddenly and mysteriously disappeared almost under the noses of all of us.
"You...are you sure Shale didn't walk in front of us."
I stammered: "But...then a person...went down from the entrance of the cave!"
I don’t believe this even if I say it myself. It’s very difficult for one person to go down to that cave entrance alone, and Shale can’t just leave without saying hello.
"Ye...Brother Ye."
Wu Zijin is not much better than me, "When... I'm walking, Le... Lezi must be behind me."
"Then where are they?"
I asked: "Did he fly to the sky or escape to the earth?"
"There is a secret passage!" Shen Yuan said.
"No way."
I said: "Didn't we check everything here?"
"I remembered."
Wu Zijin said: "When I was about to leave, Lezi seemed to say that someone pushed him, no...it couldn't be...there was a ghost."
When I mentioned ghosts, I glanced at Xue Yue subconsciously, because here, she is closest to ghosts, it couldn't be her trick! But this doesn't make sense, the cooperation has just begun, and among our group of people
, the biggest threats to her are Mao Tianlin and Shen Yuan. Even if they play tricks, they must be aimed at Mao Tianlin and Shen Yuanlai. Using scheming on Sha Le will only frighten the enemy.
"There's a problem!"
Mao Tianlin pointed the light of his flashlight at the stone wall and said, "The bullet holes are gone."
Everyone's flashlights were pointed at the stone wall. Although Wu Zijin's shot did not penetrate the stone wall, it left a medium-deep dent. But now the stone wall is smooth and flat, with no trace left at all.
"I see."
Wu Zijin was startled and said: "This stone wall is a ghost. It can repair itself. It must have eaten the fun."
"Get out of the way!" Shen Yuan pushed Wu Zijin away, squatted beside the stone wall, and looked carefully.
I also walked up, reached out and touched it, and it was wrong! The stone wall was dry and completely different from the first time I touched it.
"There is a mechanism!"
I said to Shen Yuan: "This is not the original one. This stone wall should be movable."
Shen Yuan stood up and nodded, "I had fun just now.
Where? Who saw it?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"Grandpa Shen, I just saw him resting with his back against the stone wall."
Wu Zijin said: "It seems...it seems that someone pushed him."
"How come?"
Shen Yuan asked: "Lean on it and demonstrate."
Wu Zijin shook his head desperately, not daring to step forward, and kept gesticulating with his hands, "Just lean on it like this, just like how you usually lean on the wall."
Shen Yuan studied the stone wall carefully, but could not see where the problem lay.
"Silly music! Silly music!"
I knocked on the stone wall and shouted loudly: "Just say something back to me if you hear it."
But there was no echo at all from the other side. Could it be that the stone wall was so thick that no sound could be transmitted through it, or that something happened to Shale?
I was extremely anxious. I brought Shale here, so nothing should happen to him. If anything happened, I would have no way to explain it to his family.
"My uncle's!"
I kicked the stone wall hard and said, "This is a big deal!"
"don’t worry."
Wu Zipei consoled him: "Lezi will be fine."
I asked Shen Yuan: "Old man Shen, what should we do now?"
"This passage is not a dead end."
Shen Yuan said: "The stone wall blocking the way is also movable. The fun must be behind it. What we have to do now is to find a way to open the stone wall."
"Nonsense!" I rolled my eyes at Shen Yuan.
"I'm hungry."
Wu Zijin suddenly said at an inappropriate time, "How about we eat something first and then think of a solution."
I stared at Wu Zijin speechlessly, wishing I could slap him to death. What time of the day it was, and my life was at stake, yet he still wanted to eat.
"Zi Jin's stomach is not very good."
Wu Zipei quickly helped explain, "At this time, you have to eat something, otherwise your stomach will feel very uncomfortable."
"By this time..."
Shen Yuan suddenly continued: "Look at your watch, what time is it now?"
I was confused, but I took a look and saw that it was already after five o'clock in the afternoon. I remembered that it was after one o'clock when I finished eating at noon and started climbing the mountain. Now four hours have passed in a flash.
"It's past five o'clock."
I said to Shen Yuan: "Is there any problem?"
Shen Yuan said: "What Zipei said just now reminded me that there is a possibility that this stone wall has no mechanism at all, but opens and closes at fixed times."
