Chapter 31: The Crystal Key

As we spoke, the three of us came to the entrance of the pyramid. It's a black hole inside, and it looks scary. But the three of them didn't have time to think about it, so they climbed straight into the entrance. When I entered the cave, I found that it was a dark room about one person high.

After looking around, we realized that the structure was not what we had imagined. The rock walls around this cave are carved with frescoes, which are typical of Egyptian character stories. However, the lines are extremely simple, a bit like a simple collection of graphics.

Probably due to the influence of climate and environment, the rock walls and ground of the entire cave are covered with yellow sand. We checked our surroundings with a searchlight, and all of a sudden we saw a door on the opposite side of the entrance. This gate is the same as the one of the open passages of the Pyramid of Khufu that we visited earlier.

On either side of the door, a stone figure with a spear in hand stands. They were taller than all three of us. Both of them were looking ahead, their eyes were calm, and they looked empty and majestic. In front of them, there was a stone lion lying on its stomach.

Although the two stone lions look extremely similar in form, on closer inspection, there is still a difference in the facial expressions of the two stone lions. One stared calmly ahead, while the other opened its mouth as if roaring. It's like facing the outside of the cave entrance, deterring the danger that is coming.

The old ghost and I opened the safety of the gun, pushed it open and walked in. Qian Cheng saw that we were all ready to use force, so he also loaded his bullets, followed us, and walked into the door together.

I didn't find it until I was inside the door. It's not like we've seen before, with a passage leading all the way down. Rather, it was a stone gate that looked very heavy, and the stone door was a whole, tightly closed. The three of us worked together to open the stone door.

However, we used almost all our strength to move the stone door in front of us. Looking at this movement, it must be at least dozens of tons, and it is almost impossible to shake the huge stone gate with the meager strength of the three of us.

"That's not the way to do it!" Qian Cheng said. "I've heard about it for a long time. There are many mechanisms in this pyramid. This stone door, I guess it is definitely not a simple push and pull to say that it can be opened. ”

The old ghost nodded and said, "Well, I think so too." This pyramid was painstakingly built by the pharaohs, and it was full of mechanisms and dangers. I think. Let's be careful. But don't underestimate them. Landlord. You say, don't you? ”

I didn't answer the old ghost's words, since Qian Cheng said that, it coincided with what I was thinking. I did not participate in the discussion. Just calm down and look for a way to open this stone door. I hope to be able to find some relevant mechanisms around or on the stone gate.

My previous experiences in Savannah and Ghost Island taught me that the older things are, the more they are trapped. These places are very old, and the ancients painstakingly designed them to be impregnable. Generally, it can't be broken, and even if it is cracked, it will have to pay a heavy price.

I saw that there were also two lamp holders on either side of the stone gate, so I reached out and broke them. However, unlike what I had imagined, it couldn't be pulled at all. They are fixed stone carvings, not hidden mechanisms.

The old ghost and Qian Cheng saw that I didn't speak, and they were concentrating on finding the mechanism, so they stopped talking. Both men took their flashlights out of their bags and joined the search for an exit.

I turned to the two stone figures on either side of the door and examined them, moving their spears. But there was no movement, no sound of any mechanism rattling. So I examined the stone man's body again, but found nothing.

Look at the old ghost again, he is lying on top of the stone lion and checking. Looking at his expression and movements, it is estimated that there is nothing to be found. Unconvinced, he kicked twice at the stone lion.

I moved my gaze to Qian Cheng again, but he didn't move. Just standing there, staring at the stone statue and the stone door. The hand groped his chin, as if in deep thought, pondering something incomprehensible.

Looking at his appearance, I guess I found something, so I leaned over to see what he was trying to do.

When I got to Qian Cheng, I asked him, "What?" Looking at you, it seems that you have made a discovery? ”

Qian Cheng said to me, "Have you noticed any difference between these two stone statues?" When I look at it, I always feel that something is wrong. However, I searched and searched, but I didn't know where it was different. ”

When I first came in, I saw that the two stone statues were the same, but the expressions of the two stone lions in front of me were slightly different. After Qian Cheng's reminder, I took a closer look again, trying to find out what the difference was between the two.

"Found it!" I noticed the difference between the two statues and couldn't help but cry out excitedly.

When the old ghost and Qian Cheng heard my call, they hurriedly walked to my side. Seeing me staring intently at a stone statue led him to follow my gaze as well. Still, they didn't see any difference. So, the old ghost asked me, "What did you find, boss?" ”

I pointed to the stone figure on the left and said, "Look, the eyes of this figure on the left are not the same as those on the right?" ”

"Well, it's not the same. The stone statue on the left doesn't seem to have eyeballs! The old ghost seemed to be inspired, and said, "his uncle, it's so subtle, it's like playing the game "Find Differences". If you don't pay attention, it's really not easy to spot! ”

"Well, if you look at the shape of this stone statue's eyeball, I always feel very familiar. It's like I've seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while. I said.

When the old ghost and Qian Cheng heard me say this, they also struggled to think about it.

Suddenly, the old ghost clapped his hands and said, "I remembered! Isn't this the shape of the two crystals? ”

"Crystals? What crystal? I asked.

"The two we found in Atlantis!" The old ghost saw that I didn't understand, so he hurriedly said, "It's the Atlantean energy crystal that can predict the future!" At first it was very large, and then it split into two smaller ones. Is it still there? ”

"Oh, I remember. In! After the old ghost said this, I remembered, so I hurriedly groped in my bag.

After the crystal stone was found, it was not possible to fill the crystal into the eyes of the stone statue due to the lack of height. In the end, I had to ride on the old ghost's neck and fill it in.

As soon as I filled it in, I heard a "click", followed by a "click......click" sound. The door of the stone door opened and moved to both sides. It turns out that this crystal stone is the key to open the trap door! (To be continued......)
