Chapter 30: The Keyhole

Although we were mentally prepared before, this sound almost scared us away. My heart was also cold, and I couldn't help but regret my carelessness. This is the priestess of Yu Qianqian, how can she be trapped by one of our torches?

I immediately shone a spotlight downward, but I didn't see anything. Just as he was about to go down to check, he heard a scream overhead. It's the sound of a lot! It was definitely a lot of voices, and I definitely heard it right.

The old ghost and Lisa also looked at me at once, and apparently, they heard it too.

Where can I still be calm, I immediately hurriedly climbed up the stairs. The old ghost and Lisa followed, for fear that something would happen to me. The staircase, which was less than ten stories high from the outside, now feels incredibly long to climb. It is also because the structure of this staircase is unusually complex and spiraling. At the interface of each layer, there is another level. You can imagine how important it was during the time of Atlantis!

Less than halfway down the road, a few of us were out of breath. However, due to the urgency of the situation, I did not care about resting and still ran upwards despite myself.

The old ghost was already out of breath, and shouted behind me, "Boss, can we rest for a while?" If you continue to run like this, you will have to run for your life! was not strangled to death by a female ghost, but he had to burst his blood vessels by running away, and he died of blood. ”

It's really unbearable to see the old ghost tired like this. Look at Lisa again, her face is also full of exhaustion, where can I run up again? He decided to rest for a while, so he said to the old ghost and Lisa, "Then let's take a rest, but not for too long." ”

"Oh my god, I can finally rest for a while." As soon as the old ghost heard that he could rest, he didn't care if the stairs were dirty or not. Hurriedly sat down on the stairs and sighed.

Lisa saw the old ghost sit down, and quickly stopped to rest. Keep patting yourself on the chest. After a short rest, I began to fear hitting my legs again. I saw both of them relaxing. I felt that I was also tired, and I also took a short rest.

After resting for about a minute, I urged the two of us to hurry up. At this time, time is more important than a qiē, and every second determines a person's life and death. Although the old ghost was a hundred unwilling, he still got up and climbed with me to the top of the tower.

Lisa didn't speak, it moved as we moved. Follow closely step by step, without a word of complaint. I can't help but admire Lisa: this way. Although she was often scared, she was always obligated and never thought of backing down. On the contrary, as we are born and die, there is never a word of complaint.

If it were an ordinary girl, she would have been complaining a lot. If that's the case, it's a difficult and nerve-wracking task to coax girls. This invisibly brings out the strong side of Lisa's character.

I thought to myself as I climbed the stairs, not paying attention to my steps. One stumbled and almost fell. Hurriedly collected his mind and concentrated on climbing up the stairs.

Finally. After a "long march" of climbing the stairs, we reached the top of the tower. However, there is a pavilion-like building in front of you, surrounded by arches with spires. Strangely, these arches seem to be sealed.

We went around the gazebo, which was surrounded by such arches on all sides. To be exact, it is hollowed out on all sides, with only one vault. However, every door was sealed by heavy stone slabs. I couldn't see what was inside. The old ghost looked around, looking here and there.

And Lisa was with me. I was carefully studying the specific structure of this pavilion.

"Boss, I think we'd better withdraw quickly. There's nothing here but this gazebo! The old ghost said.

Lisa and I looked at the gazebo carefully, but we didn't see anything unusual. Only on the wall to the south, I saw a hole that looked like a keyhole. But we don't know what exactly it does? I just thought the shape of this hole was a little familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen it for a while.

Finally, to figure things out, Lisa and I crouched down to look at the keyhole. Tap the knuckles of your fingers on the wall three times: "Knock, knock, knock", and then put your ear to the wall and listen carefully. See if the wall is solid or hollow.

"Tuk, tuk, tuk" There were three muffled noises suddenly coming from inside the wall, startling Lisa and me.

Without any mental preparation, Lisa was so frightened that she sat on the ground. I went to Lalisa, but because I didn't stand firmly, I was also pulled forward by her, and I almost fell to the ground. The old ghost didn't make fun of us this time, but hurriedly came over to help us.

After getting up, I crouched down again to check on the situation in order to figure out the situation. When I tapped the wall with my knuckles again, I heard the echo of "tuk, tuk, tuk" from inside.

I thought it was a response to my tapping, but it sounded like it was coming from on its own. When I tried to tap again to confirm, I heard another series of tapping sounds coming from inside. If you listen carefully, there is indeed a rule: three short, three long and three short, this is the international "S.O.S" distress signal.

The three of us looked at each other for a moment. I said to the old ghost, "There are people, there are definitely people inside!" ”

I shouted inside, "Duoduo, is that you?" I'm Fang Yu. ”

But there was silence inside, and there was no response. I asked again, but no one answered.

The old ghost had run out of patience at this time, and said, "Don't shout, let's hurry up and save people!" ”

The three of us immediately became agitated, trying to find a place to break through. But looking around, I didn't find any breakthrough, only a keyhole. The more I felt that I had seen the shape of this keyhole somewhere, but no matter how much I remembered, I just couldn't remember it.

Due to the dim light around me, in the end, I had to touch it with my hands. Around the keyhole, I felt something unusual, and I felt that there were potholes, as if they were engraved with patterns. I immediately turned on the spotlight and looked at it, and it turned out that there was a pattern. I've definitely seen this pattern, but where have I seen it?

"Where have you seen it?" I searched the memories in my head, trying to dig through the deepest memories.

This pattern ......, yes, in that mysterious cave on the Ghost Island of the Caribbean! (To be continued)
