It is an indisputable fact that I worked hard to find the treasure box and opened the treasure box with great effort, but I didn't expect that in the end, the bamboo basket was empty, and the treasure box was empty.

At the moment, not only is the treasure box empty, but even the so-called end point is nowhere to be found, and there is no obvious mark at the entrance, only a thick wall is faced.

It was already dark. Sam motioned for us to rest in place, recuperate, and take action tomorrow morning. So we pitched our tents and began to sleep soundly.

…………

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of knocking stones began to come from outside the tent. A ray of sunlight shone in, and I saw a gap in front of the stone wall, as if they were doing something. Hurriedly put on his clothes and ran out.

When he got closer, he could clearly see that Sam was holding a hard stone and smashing it against the wall, so that a deep imprint had appeared on the stone wall, but the mechanism was not found.

The old man standing next to him took out the drawings directly, spread them on the ground, and said with a heartfelt voice: "There is no reason! According to the map display, the entrance is marked next to the waterfall, and right now, isn't there a waterfall next to us? ”。

What the old man said was not wrong at all, at this time, around us, the constantly flying waterfall has been appearing in front of us. "Waterfall" I looked at the scarred wall, muttering to my mouth, and a flash of inspiration flashed in my head.

"Xiao Ke, what's wrong" Sensing the change in me, Zhang Yu suddenly asked.

I gathered my thoughts a little, looked between the waterfall and the stone wall again, and said with certainty: "Everyone, look at this waterfall, do you feel anything wrong?" ”。

"Nope!" The fat man shook his head in confusion.

The waterfall gives us the feeling of swiftness and rapidity. The waterfall in front of me is satisfying, but there is one place that is more special. I smiled and glanced around, pointing my hand straight to the middle of the waterfall, "Look there, when the waterfall falls there, there will be a brief diversion, and it is obvious that there is a raised boulder there, so that when the water falls, it diverges."

"So what?" Li Yu then asked.

Indeed, it is difficult to explain the problem by relying on this, and it can be said that it is not very useful at all. Thinking of this, I suddenly turned around and pointed to the scarred wall, "Everyone is looking at this wall, isn't it a little different?"

After a few seconds of silence, Li Yu suddenly exclaimed: "The scratches on the wall represent the waterfall that remained, and the blank space in the middle is the so-called convex stone."

I smiled and nodded, as Li Yu said, the only special feature of the seemingly ordinary stone wall is that there are scratches on the stone surface from top to bottom, and there is a blank space in the center of the stone wall. It's hard to see anything from this alone, but if you compare the waterfall next to it, you'll be surprised to find that the two are analogous, that is, the blank spot on the stone wall must have hidden a mystery.

Without further ado, Sam picked up his Yin Seal and slammed it on the blank space of the stone wall, once, twice, ten times,......, but there was no reaction, "Could it be that I guessed wrong?" I asked myself this, only to see that when Sam struck the thirty-fourth blow, the wall "boomed", and the empty space was suddenly smashed out of a small hole, and then it was cleaned up, and a square groove appeared in front of us.

Strangely, the size of the groove is exactly the same as the Yin Seal in Sam's hand. "Could it be that the so-called Yin Seal was taken from here before?" Thinking of this, I saw that Sam actually handed his gaze to me, and remembered that Sam took out my portrait and told me the secret of the jade pendant, and I always felt that I had an indelible connection with Sam, or rather, with Sam's ancestors.

After a moment of silence, Sam walked to the groove one by one, carefully put the Yin Mark into the groove, and when his hand just leaned against the groove, there was an inexplicable suction force inside, and in an instant, the Yin Mark fell into the groove.

Perhaps it was the Yin Seal that really returned to its original "home", shining with golden light and unusually dazzling. Leaning next to us, we had to cover it with our hands, and took a few steps back slightly, only to hear the roaring sound from the stone wall, as if something was about to start.

When everything had calmed down, a round stone platform suddenly appeared in front of the groove. At the edge above, ten humanoid images are drawn. To our surprise, the illustration on it was exactly the same as that of the old man's pocket watch. Is there any special connection between the two?

Aware of this relationship, the old man took out the pocket watch, what he didn't expect was that he handed it to me first, I took the pocket watch in surprise, put it in my hand, and inexplicably felt the heaviness of the pocket watch, look at the structure outside the pocket watch, there should not be such a weight! "Could it be that there is something hidden in the pocket watch" Thinking of this, I motioned to the old man if he could open the watch, although the old man was a little regretful, but still nodded.

After obtaining the consent of the old man, it can be said that the following is a matter of course. I carefully opened the cover of the pocket watch, and at that moment, as if something was about to pop out, I hurriedly covered the lid and motioned for Zhang Yu to come over and take the handle. The moment Zhang Yu opened it, I, who had been watching by the side, suddenly pressed the thing that was about to fly out into my hand.

To my slight surprise, what I was holding in my hand was not a living thing, but a piece of tin foil wrapped in it, which seemed to be wrapped in something. I looked into the pocket watch, and saw that there was a spring-like device inside, which had been covered by the lid before, and had been under a pressure, but after the lid was untied, it naturally bounced open, and it was natural to see the scene we had just seen.

At this time, everyone's eyes are focused on the tin foil in my hand, what will be wrapped in it? In fact, I also want to know, patience, I slowly opened the tin foil, what I didn't expect, maybe everyone didn't expect, was that the tin foil was wrapped in a pile of lime powder, the color was slightly different from the wall in front of me, as if it was doped with some special substance. I tried to go up and smell it, but there was still a fishy smell, "Is it mixed with human blood" I didn't dare to think about it anymore, and just as I didn't know what to do, I heard Sam's unquestioning voice, "Pour it on the stone platform."

Seeing that Sam was so resolute, I couldn't say anything more, and hurriedly poured the powder on the stone platform, only to see that the stone platform first lit up, then dimmed, and finally there was no movement at all.

What's going on? The fat man was speechless, knocked lightly on the stone platform, and muttered, "Is the mechanism malfunctioning?"

Thinking of the smell I smelled before, I frowned suddenly, saw Zhang Yu's gaze, and suddenly explained: "Maybe I know what's going on", said, I stood straight in front of the stone platform, bit my index finger, and waited for the moment when the blood droplets fell to the stone platform, the whole stone platform suddenly shone brightly, and then the entire stone wall continued to shake, we retreated, and the facts told us that the hole was about to appear.
