Quicksand covers the entire labyrinth from the periphery, and it will never be opened when the labyrinth is not destroyed.

But once an unknown person breaks in and tries to find the tomb, quicksand will pour into the cave from a high place, and then block the surrounding hole layer by layer, so that the space inside can only enter and exit.

The whole maze is like a mountain-like mound of sealed soil, when the quicksand is crossed, it is like a boat swimming in the water, and it travels when it encounters the situation, avoiding stones and transporting water.

But now, the boat is broken, the water and the boat are sinking, and the sea is coming from all directions, through the cracks in the boat, engulfing us.

I don't know how many holes I've walked through, but I still haven't found an exit to the top, and no other bodies have been found.

The holes were black, with no end in sight, as if they were bigger than the ones I had seen before. Because the topography here is calculated from above, the cavities of quicksand are from small to large, so the more you go down, the more space there is.

We can take refuge below, either waiting for the sand to block all exits, or finding the entrance to the tomb.

However, it is clear that the latter may be minimal, but fortunately we have another hope, because Li Sansi said that the quicksand here actually has a most fatal weakness, that is, it can only be used once.

A blockade mechanism like this in a large area, once activated, is very powerful, as long as you enter it, there is no possibility of survival at all, but its biggest flaw is that after the quicksand floods the cave, the tomb robbers are trapped, and the tomb will be undoubtedly revealed.

If the tomb robbers were clever enough to assign two groups of men and stretch the timeline to the most appropriate distance, then such a mechanism would be self-defeating.

Finding the tomb or the exit is the best thing we can do now, but the quicksand is constantly covering us, and the place where we are moving is shrinking in the maze.

I don't know how long I walked, but at last I saw an upward passage at the mouth of a cave, and we all climbed into it at once, but I did not get ahead of them, but walked behind and carved a mark.

After entering the cave, we walked for more than ten minutes, and I felt that the stone walls around me had changed, because the stone walls that used to be relatively soft were now very hard.

I could clearly feel that we were climbing up a cave with a small slope, but it didn't take long for us to hear a rustling sound overhead.

Li Sansi walked in front, and when he heard the voice, he immediately stopped, raised his head and shone a flashlight upward, and sure enough, he saw several fist-sized holes there.

"Let's go, go up first!" With a short speech, Li Sansi took the lead in rushing forward, but after taking a few steps, the sand behind him fell like a tide, and the sound of rustling continued to echo in the hollow passage.

After walking some distance, we saw two holes, the same as the ones we had encountered before, but unlike the previous ones, which were going downward, these were still upwards.

Li Sansi stretched out his head, shook it a few times with the flashlight, and then turned around and took out a solid pendant of moderate size from his backpack, like a professional archaeologist, knocked on the stone wall a few times, and then listened carefully to the continuous echoes from the cave.

The sound is loud, which indicates that the stone wall is very hard, but the echo is long, which indicates that the passage may be long.

After tapping a few times in a row, Li Sansi heard the echoes of the two walls shaking in his ears, and finally nodded, as if he had determined something.

But we went to another stone wall and struck it, but as soon as the hammer struck three times, we heard another kind of rustling sound in the echo.

Although the sounds sounded far away, in such a quiet environment, those sounds still did not escape our ears.

Seeing this, everyone no longer hesitated, and they all walked towards the previous hole, but this time the mark I left was very shallow, because the hardness of the stone wall here was already very high.

I'm not sure if they'll be able to follow what I've left to find here, but it's always good to keep a good note, because there's a hope in my heart that I can get their help.

This stone cave is very long and narrow, we had to hold on to the stone walls on both sides to walk forward, I felt that we had been walking for a long time, and finally saw the next exit, this exit is still bifurcated, left and right, there is no difference.

In the flashlight, I saw that Li Sansi was about to step forward to explore the way, but suddenly he paused, as if he had found something on the stone wall, and immediately squatted down slowly.

In the light, I saw a monkey-like relief on the side of the stone wall at the entrance of the cave.

The relief is very clear, especially the round eyes, which are very realistic, and after looking at them for a long time, it really makes people feel that they are looking at a pair of real eyes, not stones.

Although it is not large, the facial features are very symmetrically distributed, as if they were carved according to the size of the original.

Removing the light, we only found the upper body of the monkey, and the rest of the body was probably not continued because there was not enough stone to carve.

However, Li Sansi was very concerned about this discovery, and after carefully looking at it a few times, he went to listen to the movement in the stone cave.

After listening for a while, he struck it with a solid hammer, but the response he heard was a little hollow, as if there was a hollow place in the inside of the stone cave.

Hesitating, Li Sansi turned to another stone cave, where the knocking movement was very ordinary.

In this contrast, Li Sansi moved his gaze back to the original relief of yours, and he didn't understand what it meant when it appeared here.

However, after thinking about it for a while, it seemed that there was no result, so Li Sansi had to come up with a decision and let us go to the safe stone cave.

The road is quiet, not much different from the previous passage, the only difference is that it has narrowed a little around it, but it also makes sure that we are going up, not standing still.

It's just that these short-lived changes are difficult to be noticed, which also shows that we are not moving up fast.

Calculating the time, we finally saw the end of this stone cave again, but strange things happened at the end, because the end of this stone cave is still the same fork in the road, and there are monkey reliefs in the same direction.

It was as if we were coming back to where we were, and the monkey's eyes were watching us in the dark.

After waiting for a long time, Li Sansi didn't speak, he looked at everything in front of him, and seemed to be thinking about something in his heart, but there was no accurate answer.

When Ham couldn't help but remind him, Li Sansi came to his senses, hesitantly pointed to the road he had taken last time, and motioned for us to continue.

This road is still the same as it was, quiet and dark, but Li Sansi is constantly speeding up his pace, eager to see the end as soon as possible.

Perhaps we are all desperately looking for a result in our hearts, but when this result appears, we feel unacceptable.

In the same place, Li Sansi made the same choice three times, and we seemed to be spinning in the same place all the time, and we couldn't tell if the distance here had changed.

The distortion of the slope and distance has made everyone choose to escape, instinctively rejecting what they are afraid of in their hearts, but I clearly know that we have not returned to the same place at all, because the mark I left on the stone wall has never been repeated even once.

I didn't know what this repetition was, but when everyone was not paying attention to the familiar surroundings, I suddenly noticed that the monkey-shaped relief had changed subtly.

The monkey's eyes, which used to be vivid, are now gradually closing, and I wonder if anyone else has discovered it, and whether I should tell them about it.

No, maybe I should hide it, and when they're completely confused by the mechanism here, I'll find a way to get out of it myself.

Thinking like this, I couldn't help but not tell Li Sansi what I found, but when I saw the eyes that kept closing, a nervous feeling hit my heart for no reason.

In front of the holes, no one was in the mood to linger any longer to look at the useless things, but I was still keeping an eye on them, because I felt that when the monkey closed its eyes completely, we would find something.

Maybe everything that is familiar around us will change, and that change may bring us new life or death, only people who are tired of that familiar thing will yearn for this change, to add a kind of life experience to themselves, but I only feel uneasy, afraid of that moment coming.

Maybe it's because I'm different from what they think, content with the status quo, but I know that it's all extraordinary, it's just a countdown number, slowly approaching the beginning.

The change is subtle and easy to overlook, but in my eyes, it is like a jewel thrown into the sea, gradually stirring up a huge dark tide in the calm.

Time passed, and the relief was repeated at the entrance of the cave, until the monkey's eyes were about to close completely, and I finally couldn't hold back, and told the others about my discovery.

I don't know if the monkey's eyes will be completely closed the next time the hole appears, or even correspondingly to these, will there be a hole that will disappear completely.

After stopping, Li Sansi walked over and shone the flashlight on the stone sculpture at the entrance of the cave, and at this time, the monkey seemed to be extremely sleepy, and his eyelids were already heavily closed.

The flashlight shone towards another hole, where it was still pitch black and there was no end in sight, and when Li Sansi hit the stone wall with a stone hammer, we clearly heard a rustling sound.

It was all too familiar, and I had heard it not so long ago, the sound of quicksand seeping through the cracks in the cavern.

Because the gap is not large, the speed of the sand flow will not stop, as if it will never stop, until all the corners are filled.
