Chapter 130: The Mysterious Cave
Li Ziyu thought about it for only a few seconds, and then walked in without hesitation.
When she first entered, there seemed to be more than 20 steps, and she walked calmly on the ground without feeling inconvenienced at all.
If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get a tiger, since you are here, let's see what the mystery of this place is. Who is inside? Why would you be interested in how many orphans are there?
It's just that as soon as she entered the cave with the bamboo basket on her back, the hole behind her closed silently and quickly. By the time Li Ziyu reacted, it was already dark inside.
Li Ziyu stood still and did not move. She held a dagger in her left hand and several darts in her right hand, quietly feeling the movement around her with full vigilance.
She thought about it carefully just now, and she was lured by this cave owner. If he didn't want to let himself find out, he wouldn't have deliberately left footprints that made her suspicious. Then he deliberately left clues for her to follow. I'm afraid that even the cedar tree in front of the cave was deliberately left with a flaw in order to lure her into the bait.
She just didn't understand, who would be so interested in her? She thinks that she has no attractive capital, no appearance, no wealth, no power, and she is currently a bean sprout, and as long as the other party is not a pervert, she will not have any interest in her.
If you can't figure it out, you don't want to think about it. You must calm down and don't let the other party lead you by the nose.
Li Ziyu waited for a while, and her eyes gradually adapted to the environment inside. I found that there seemed to be a light in front of me, and it was looming and weird. All around, she didn't feel the breath of anyone's presence, nor did she perceive any danger.
She hesitated for a moment, wanting to turn away. Because it must not be too early now. If they didn't go back on time, they must have gone crazy.
And she did, turning around and fumbling for the switch to open the door. But she touched it for a long time. The walls of the cave are smooth as mirrors, with no protrusions or switches that can be turned on.
Since you can't get out, why don't you go in and have a look? Maybe there's an unexpected discovery in the cave, but not necessarily.
Li Ziyu tightened the bamboo basket on her back and groped forward.
After walking for a while, I got closer to the light. Only then did she discover that in the rock walls on both sides of the tower, there was a night pearl inlaid with each other. And with the depth of the cave. There is a night pearl not far away, making the whole cave as bright as day.
It also made Li Ziyu see the whole picture of this cave clearly.
The cave was supposed to be natural, but it was later artificially modified from the original. This hole can be seen horizontally, and two carriages can run side by side. It is very spacious. I can't see how far it is from the vertical, because she hasn't reached the end yet.
The top of the cave hangs sparse stalactites, and there is no landscape of "fairy hanging clothes" and "colorful clouds chasing the moon". If you look closely, there are also broken stalactites, which seem to have been broken by the cave owner when he was renovating the cave.
The distance from the top of the cave to the bottom is about a zhang. The cave is neither damp nor stuffy. The foot is also very flat. I don't know how the owner of the cave renovated it, it must be connected to somewhere, otherwise the air inside would not be so fresh.
Li Ziyu didn't know where this cave led, she just kept walking, and she couldn't remember how many turns she took. After walking for about half an hour, I felt that the temperature in front of me dropped suddenly, and the cold wind pouring in from the front made Li Ziyu feel refreshed. I couldn't help but rejoice, does this mean that we are not far from the entrance of the cave?
Li Ziyu quickened her pace. I ran in the direction of the cold wind.
Strange to say, the cave owner who led him here never appeared. She was puzzled. What is the purpose of luring her over so hard? She sensed that the cave master had no ill will towards her, so what did he really mean?
Li Ziyu finally stood at the mouth of the cave, squinting her eyes and looking around cautiously.
She found that the cave was halfway up the mountain, some distance from the ground. It was dark outside the cave, and I didn't know what was going on outside.
Li Ziyu was a little worried, what should she do now? Go back, right? The retreat has been sealed, don't go back, spend the night here? Isn't the house turned upside down? Maybe now Xiaoshan and Bujiu have gone into the mountain to look for her.
Li Ziyu looked outside, thought about it and retreated. It's safer to be inside a cave than outside an unknown cave.
As soon as she retreated to the cave, she began to feel for the switch that could get out of the cave. Li Ziyu thought that since the owner of the cave had lured her over, he had no malicious intentions, so he would not trap her inside. Therefore, there must be an exit in addition to the exit of the cliff.
Fortunately, there is a night pearl illuminated inside, and Li Ziyu can see the situation in the cave clearly.
Anyway, it was already late, and Li Ziyu was not in a hurry. She calmed down, groping on the stone wall little by little. Time passed, and when she was about to lose her patience, she finally made a discovery.
This place is supposed to be the center of the entire cave, and there are no obvious signs on the stone walls. It's just that there is a place the size of a thumb cover that presents a different color from other places, if it weren't for Li Ziyu's carefulness, he would have ignored it.
This color is slightly darker than the earthy yellow stone wall, and slightly brownish, close to the color of the stone wall.
The design of this place is really hanging, and Li Ziyu barely managed to get there. She pressed it tentatively, but she didn't expect to actually open a door in the smooth stone wall.
Miraculously, when the stone door opened, there was not a single sound. The inside is still as bright as day, and it is clear that it is the work of the pearl of the night.
Li Ziyu waited beside her for a while, listening to the movement inside. After about five minutes, not only was there no movement inside, but the stone door was so open, as if it was waiting for Li Ziyu.
Li Ziyu didn't have a second way to go now, gritted her teeth, and walked in with a bamboo basket on her back. But when she entered, the stone door was still open and not closed.
Li Ziyu took advantage of the light of the night pearl and found that there was also a light brown mark inside, so he put his hand on it and pressed it hard, and the stone door closed silently.
Li Ziyu hurriedly walked along the cave, no longer considering whether there was any danger. Because if the cave master wants to deal with her, she is in the light, and the cave master is in the dark, and there is a way.
Li Ziyu walked for more than half an hour, and she felt that the cave seemed to be gradually rising, as if it was getting closer and closer to the ground, which made her very surprised.
This means that it is not far from the exit of the cave, but I don't know where the exit is.
At this time, a wooden ladder appeared in front of it, and at the top of the wooden ladder was a bluestone slab.
Li Ziyu found the mark next to the wooden ladder again, and still pressed it, and the bluestone slab moved silently, revealing a hole.
Li Ziyu walked out of the cave along the wooden ladder, and couldn't help but be surprised when she looked around. How is it here?
