"There's still a room here, hurry up!" I didn't expect Xia Ruobing to run so fast with a limp, Wang Xingguo just ran a few steps, and saw that the light of her flashlight dimmed suddenly, and then he went into the room to take a look, and was stunned for a moment.

This is the most neat stone room I have ever seen, the area is not too large, only less than 50 square meters, but it is almost a perfect circle, even the corners have been carefully carved, not as rough as other stone rooms, Xia Ruobing's eyes looked directly at a stone platform in the center of the stone room, Wang Xingguo followed her eyes to look over, this is a limestone carved stone statue, presumably the stones scattered outside are the waste materials on this sculpture.

The stone statue had been darkened, not as white as the new limestone, and some places were still buried by mud and rubble, only half of it was exposed, Xia Ruobing ran forward and pulled the gravel and dirt away with his hands, revealing part of the stone statue.

Xia Ruobing took a step back and saw it more realistically, she had seen this sculpture before!

"Come over here and help!" Xia Ruobing saw Wang Xingguo holding a flashlight around and shone on those passages, and shouted.

"Find a way......" Wang Xingguo replied.

"Don't look for it, help ...... first"

Helplessly, Wang Xingguo had no choice but to come over and help Xia Ruobing move some stones that she couldn't lift to the side, and the stone statue finally showed its true face.

"What is this?!" A semi-arc stone statue is buckled on the stone platform, there are still some uneven patterns on the stone platform, and it has not had time to clean up, this semi-arc seems to be a turtle shell, but obviously this is not a turtle, the first half of the stone statue was smashed off by the collapsed stones, mixed in the dirt and gravel, and it is impossible to see what the head is.

Xia Ruobing cleaned the back of the stone statue, and as expected, there were patterns on it, Xia Ruobing gently pulled out the dirt along the patterns with a knife, and a pattern appeared in front of her.

Wang Xingguo saw a human eye carved behind the stone statue! If you look closely, the stone platform is also an oval stone platform, and if you look down on it, it is also in the shape of a human eye, and the stone statue happens to be an eyeball.

"There is also a stone statue of the same in the temple of Chengzi Village!" Xia Ruobing said.

"What is this?!" Wang Xingguo didn't see why, could it be a turtle?

"The image of a beetle with a particularly large chelicera! Look for it, it's definitely still here. Xia Ruobing squatted down, rummaged through the pile of rocks, found some fragments of limestone in the mixed mud and falling hematite stones, and put them together, and sure enough, it looked like the head of a beetle.

"Why did they carve a beetle and put it here?" Wang Xingguo turned his head to look around, and there were a total of 6 passages in this stone room, which happened to be symmetrical and radial.

"Probably a primitive cult." Xia Ruobing was working to clean up the bulges on the stone platform again, if there was no mistake, this was the same as the stone statue in the side hall of the Chengzi Village Sect Temple, surrounded by a circle of small beetle stone carvings.

"Xia Ruobing, time!" Wang Xingguo reminded again.

"Soon! You find your way first. ”

Looking at Xia Ruobing's appearance, she won't leave this stone statue if she drags her.

"I said you can't go it alone! You forgot the three chapters of the covenant! Wang Xingguo was a little angry.

"I'm not running around, it's right here!" Xia Ruobing cleaned up the soil on the stone platform with his hands and feet, not caring about what Wang Xingguo said.

Wang Xingguo had no choice but to explore the road first, and when he left, he also told Xia Ruobing not to run around.

When Wang Xingguo came back, Xia Ruobing cleaned up the stone platform almost, and sure enough, there was a circle of stone carvings of small beetles on the stone platform, like a relief, like eyelids around the edge of the stone platform, if you add two rows of eyelashes, this stone platform is really like a human eye.

"Three passages were blocked by collapsed mud and rocks, another passage was not opened, and two others I didn't dare to go far to check." Wang Xingguo came back and reported the situation to Xia Ruobing.

"Hmm...... Could it be that the primitive worship of the Loulan people is a beetle?! Xia Ruobing opened her mother's notebook, but she didn't find any records related to beetles.

"Xia Ruobing, we don't have time...... Wang Xingguo reminded again, "Can you find the way first?" ”

"Wait!" Xia Ruobing took out the pen, quickly sketched the picture of the stone room and the stone carving in the blank space behind her mother's notebook, and marked down some important data, and when she finished it, ten minutes passed.

"Let's try this first." Wang Xingguo shook the passage on the left with a flashlight, and reminded her again, "Turn off your flashlight and save electricity." ”

Wang Xingguo silently counted his steps, walked 371 steps, the distance of each step is 70 centimeters, about 260 meters, the light of the flashlight seems to be swallowed by the darkness all of a sudden, and there is a stone room in front of it, which looks very large.

There is a broken stone brazier on the wall by the passage, and a beetle is also carved on the side of the brazier, Wang Xingguo stopped, the aperture was closed on this brazier, he saw that the back of the brazier seemed to be empty, and when he looked closer, there was something in the hole.

"Xia Ruobing, it seems to be Lu Wen, you can take a look." Wang Xingguo shouted, Xia Ruobing took a closer look, this seemed to be a bar, and there was indeed a line of Lu Wen engraved on the stone bar, but most of it was blocked by the brazier, and Xia Ruobing couldn't see it comprehensively.

Xia Ruobing pressed down on the brazier and found that it could still move, and the gap widened a little.

"Help me hold it down, I'll see!" Xia Ruobing turned on the flashlight and tried hard to put her eyes in through the gap.

Wang Xingguo pressed the brazier harder, widening the gap a little more.

"Those who move must ......" Xia Ruobing was still a little short away from seeing clearly.

"Press down a little more!"

Wang Xingguo used all his strength to eat, and the whole person pressed up, and the brazier slammed, pressing to the bottom, and the gap expanded to the maximum.

"Do you see clearly?" Wang Xingguo asked.

"Death?!" Xia Ruobing rubbed her eyes, thinking that she had seen something wrong.

"What?" Wang Xingguo didn't react.

"This says that those who move will die!"

Wang Xingguo let go of the brazier, and the surroundings were quiet, only the "click" sound of rubbing between the stones when the brazier slowly rose back.

After looking left and right, nothing happened, and then the brazier "clicked" and returned to its original position.

"You read that right?" Wang Xingguo wondered if Xia Ruobing was dazzled.

"Maybe it's been too long, and the mechanism has failed."

"Whew!" Wang Xingguo's heart was put down, he took a step forward, and suddenly heard a "rumbling" sound in the cave, the top of his head shook, and a burst of smoke and dust came out of the roof of the cave in front of him, and a stone door slowly fell.

"Stand back! Stand back! Wang Xingguo pulled Xia Ruobing, and as soon as he turned around, he didn't know when a stone gate was also falling on the passage behind him, and the speed of the fall was still very fast.

If you don't leave, the two of them will be trapped in this small place, quickly judging the situation, Wang Xingguo pulled up Xia Ruobing, ran straight forward, and ran to the stone gate, which was less than a meter from the ground, Wang Xingguo pressed Xia Ruobing's head, first pushed her over, and then threw the backpack off his shoulders and threw it over, the stone gate was already very close to the ground, Wang Xingguo hugged his head and shrank his feet, and rolled over.

"Bang!" The ground shook, and the stone gate blocked the passage.

……

"Listen! There is a sound! Sherpa felt a low-frequency sound in the cavern, and was suddenly awakened, and the sound bounced back in the cave and in the passage, sounding somewhat like a low "buzzing", still far away from him.

The sound woke up Chen Badai and Mr. Min too, they didn't know how long they had been asleep, the sound disappeared after a while, Chen Badai turned on the caving flashlight, looked around, and found nothing.

"Let's sleep a little longer, maybe we'll find our way when we wake up." Chen Badai leaned against the wall and continued to close his eyes.

……

"Xia Ruobing, does your knee still hurt?" Most of this stone chamber collapsed, and the remaining part was empty, there was no passage, and the two of them were trapped here.

Xia Ruobing hugged her knees and squatted against the wall, shook her head and didn't speak.

"I'll try again!" Wang Xingguo walked to the stone gate again, and tried to lift it up with all his strength, but the stone gate did not move.
