What appeared in front of Ren Ke's eyes was a swirling dark green stone, somewhat similar to chalcedony. The black stones in the middle and on both sides had traces of being chiseled.

Ren Ke noticed an unknown object exposed in the middle.

She pressed her hand on it and found a texture similar to iron. She pressed it with a little force and it sank in. She couldn't help but be a little surprised.

  Not long after I was surprised, there was a sudden "bang" vibration beside my body.

Ren Ke subconsciously turned his head and saw that a large piece of the stone wall had moved. He quickly moved back, revealing a passage that could probably accommodate one person!

 “Yes, yes!”

 Ren Ke immediately spoke out to remind people outside.

Hearing the sound, Lin Wu and others quickened their steps and gathered in front of the gap. Lin Wu, Chang Chi, and Gao Zhouwen who were nearby squatted down first to take a look.

"Is there really a way?" Chang Chi was delighted and said: "Then let's go now, you... no, you come out first, and I will be the first to go in and explore the way."

"Chang Chi!" Chang San, who heard from behind, immediately stepped forward, "You don't need to be there, I'll explore the way."

Chang Chi raised his hand to stop him, "It's best for me to come to a place like this. If something happens, you might get hurt, but I won't."

Gao Zhouwen was not worried about someone like Chang Chi, who was unfamiliar to him, exploring the way. Hearing this, he was confused: "What do you say? Why won't you get hurt?"

"What does it have to do with you? If you don't explore the road and take risks, then don't care what others do, just shut up and follow." Chang Chi was too lazy to reply to him.

Gao Zhouwen frowned and looked at Lin Wu.

Lin Wu stretched out his hand to pull out the dizzy Ren Ke and handed her a bottle of water. Under the gazes of several people, she said: "If he wants to explore the way, just let him go. It doesn't matter who goes."

Chang Chi looked at her and said, "You come in last and follow the archaeological team."

After saying that, he climbed in neatly and rolled into the passage.

Without thinking, Chang San followed quickly with two Huo family members.

Gao Zhouwen and Han Yuesong looked at each other and led others to follow without caring about who was behind. Professor Zhang, Wang Lin, and Qiu Mei no longer wanted to stay here, so they hurried in with all their might.

Luan Zhi said with concern: "Miss Lin, if there is any danger, we will warn you in time."

Lin Wu hummed perfunctorily.

The remaining Jian Chonghe slowly looked at Lin Wu and others, said something careful, and climbed in after him.

 “Let’s go.” Lin Wu said, and several people entered one after another.

There is a two-meter-deep natural passage below. The person who falls first will help the person who comes down after landing to prevent them from falling out.

After standing still, Lin Wu looked at the passage with a flashlight. It was cold and quite narrow, so it was a bit difficult for the two of them to walk side by side.

Chang Chi in front could not wait to lead people out quite far, and the archaeological team followed closely behind.

Lin Wu and others stepped to follow, and soon they heard exclamations. When they got closer, they saw two people who died of serious injuries in front of them. They were sent by the archaeological team earlier. Their injuries were very similar to the four people before.

Everyone is much calmer this time. When encountering a dead person, they can be sure that someone has actually passed by here, which makes people feel more at ease.

 Everyone did not stop too much and continued to move forward.

Lin Wu kept an eye on it. After Han Yuesong and others walked away, she turned back to see if she could find the same brand or other clues, but she didn't.

 Bai Jing and Lin Wu understood what she meant, "Those two are ordinary researchers, not special personnel like Han Yuesong and others, who cannot get useful information."

Lin Wu hummed in a deep voice and said: "I haven't remembered what organization uses that brand yet. Anyway, it seems that we really can only wait until we get out to check it out."

The two of them quickly caught up with them. With Bai Ning and several others as cover, no one noticed that they had left. In fact, the attention of the people in front was quickly attracted by others.

Because they saw many sharp knives and arrows on the ground in front of them, and there were traces of triggering mechanisms on the wall next to them. Going forward, there was a large pit at a distance. There were all kinds of sharp blades in the pit. If it falls, it will be punctured.

There are scattered blood stains on the ground. It is obvious that these mechanisms were triggered suddenly and hard to prevent, and some people who had been here before were injured.

“I didn’t expect that your people in front of us had a very difficult walk. The difficulty was good, they had it difficult, and now we are relaxed.” Chang Chi looked at the people of the archaeological team and said with gloating.

 “Whether it’s easy or not now is still a matter of two words.” Wang Lin said with an ugly face.

Chang Chi retorted: "That's why it's more difficult for you than us. As for you, it's not sure whether you can survive. It's best to pray that nothing happens."

Wang Lin’s face turned green.

Chang Chi hummed a small tune and continued walking forward, but if you observe him carefully, you will find that he is very vigilant and observes his surroundings calmly.

The group of people walked for about twenty minutes when they suddenly discovered that the passage began to **** downwards and they were walking deeper underground.

 There are various mechanisms that are triggered from time to time.

Lin Wu saw that they had really relaxed, so he reminded them to be vigilant, as there might be some mechanism that had not been triggered.

As a result, her words came true. Professor Zhang was so tired that when he stopped and asked to take a rest, he leaned against the wall. With a "click", a piece of the wall behind him moved away, and a poisonous snake flew out of it!

Jian Chonghe quickly pulled Professor Zhang away with his eyes and hands, drew his sword with his backhand and slashed the snake into two halves, before it fell to the ground with a clatter.

Seeing that the upper body with the snake's head was still moving and seemed to be about to continue attacking, Luan Zhi stabbed it without hesitation.

 The actions of the two of them made Lin Wu look at them sideways a few more times.

Wang Lin and Qiu Mei quickly backed away with pale faces.

 Professor Zhang did not dare to rest now and wanted to leave quickly.

No one in the group dared to relax anymore, and they all moved forward cautiously with their hearts in mind.

 Half an hour later, they reached the end and saw a closed heavy stone door.

 The group of people spontaneously spread out and groped for the mechanism to open the stone door.

Unexpectedly, Chang Chi pushed hard and pushed a few points, so everyone gathered together and pushed the stone door open.

Following the loud noise, the group of people coughed and waved away the stirred up dust, and took a closer look.

Behind the stone gate is a very huge cave, with dense cone-shaped molten rocks hanging upside down from above. The light of the flashlight shines on it, reflecting the cold light.

 There is a small pool in front with dark and deep water. Opposite are three cave entrances leading to different roads, and there are paths on both sides of the pool to pass through.

 This puts them in a difficult position.

 “Which hole shall we go through?”

While looking at each other, Chang Chi suddenly said: "Since there is more than one way, let's go separately. Anyway, we didn't get along when we first came together, so there is no need to force us to go together. If there is another conflict, everyone will feel uncomfortable. Why bother?" You think so?"

 He glanced at everyone and pointed to the hole on the right.

 “I’ll take that one.”
