Chapter 58 Hidden Door

Holding his feathers and always being careful of the stone path under his feet, Yue Zun walked to the depths of the mountain with caution and uneasiness...

The feathers sent by Bifang are indeed extraordinary and seem to be spiritual. When it was first outside, this blue shading, with a red spotted feather on the tail, had no abnormality except that it looked beautiful.

As the light around the body weakened, the feather began to shine like an LED intelligent sensor light. From the faint hazy orange at the beginning to the bright pomegranate red in a completely dull environment.

It's just that Yue Zun wonders why the color of the light doesn't match the tone of feathers! Usually, it's not all what color of light it emits. Amazing...

The road under your feet seems to be very long. Yue Zun has been walking for a long time, but he still can't reach the end.

There is no expected danger, but only the sound of water coming from my ears.

All the way. Fortunately, Yue Zun's nerves are big enough to withstand loneliness and keep loneliness, just burying his head in moving forward.

I don't know how long it has been. Anyway, I have rested three times on the way. How can it be ten hours? The situation has finally changed. With Bi Fang's feather lighting, he found that there was no way dozens of meters ahead. At the end of the stone path, it was like a forest stone wall.

Yue Zun was shocked. Won't he want me to swim again? Since entering the mountain belly, he has narrowly survived in the water several times, which makes him feel afraid of the water, and subconsciously he is really unwilling to go into the water again.

and keep walking and move on. It's all here, and there's no reason not to continue to go to the end to have a look. Maybe there is another way out. After all, it is possible that there is another channel on the side wall, which is difficult to find from this angle. It is also possible that a dark door was set up at the end of the road, which melted with the stone wall and could not be found until near.

At the end of the road, Yue Zun did not find a new passage, and there was no mechanism such as a secret door. In this way, after the stone path reaches the end, you must swim a distance to reach your destination.

A resentment rose in Yue Zun's heart. You know, in this dark river before, I almost lost my life several times, and I still have a lingering heart.

I was resentful all my life and was very annoyed. I raised my right hand and patted the stone wall on the side. Originally, this was just an unconscious action. Unexpectedly, after this palm was slapped, Yue Zun felt a severe tingling from his palm, as if his palm had been pierced by a projection on the stone wall.

You know, because this stone path is completely artificially chiseled, although the stone wall on the side cannot be said to be as smooth as a mirror, it is at least smooth. Yue Zun has also paid special attention to this point along the way.

The palm hurts, and under the conditioned reflex, it is to retract the right hand patted on the stone wall, and because of the action of pulling back, the wound and the sharp object that pierces the wound rubbed the wound.

Raise your hand to the neck and spread out your palm to check the wound. At this glance, I found that my palm was indeed pierced, and the palms and backs of my hands were bleeding with red blood.

Fortunately, the wound is not big, and it does not hurt nerves and bones. After trying, five fingers can still move freely and are not afraid of pain in the wound.

However, his clothes were torn clean by the monkeys in that cave. Now, the whole body is red, and you can't wrap it if you want to pull a piece of cloth. Helplessly, he had to put the feather used for lighting in his mouth, empty his left hand, and pressed the wound on the palm and back of his hand with the index finger and thumb of his left hand to stop the bleeding.

After that, Yue Zun saved his mind and finally knew that he turned his head to observe what pierced his palm on the stone wall.

It is a stone nail that is not different from the color of the stone wall. If it hadn't been for the blood from Yue Zun's palm at this time, it would have been really not so obvious. If you don't observe it carefully, it would be difficult to be found.

The stone nail is more than two centimeters long and three millimeters thick. It is not perpendicular to the stone wall and protrude upward at an 80-degree angle. At this time, the blood from Yue Zun's wound was stained, and because at this angle, the blood flowed to the junction between the root of the stone nail and the stone wall.

The blood flowed to the root of the stone nail, but it did not slide straight down, but penetrated to both sides. Yue Zun saw it and felt a little abnormal. After careful inspection, he found that there was a shallow cat head pattern about five centimeters in size carved on the stone wall. And the stone nail protruded from the top of the cat's head of this pattern.

Just because of the age, the carving of this pattern has already melted with the surrounding stone walls. If it hadn't been for the blood seeping along the carving of the pattern, Yue Zun may not have been able to find it. This cat's head pattern, looking at its technique, is obviously one stroke, and the lines are particularly simple, but it is still very vivid and lifelike.

Moreover, this cat's head made Yue Zun look very familiar. I almost thought that someone had engraved the cat's head on it.

Thinking about it, in the eyes of human beings, as long as it is a cat of the same breed, it looks similar. Most people can only distinguish the difference by hair color and size. I don't think it's surprising that the cat's head pattern looks like a cat.

What's more, I learned from the cat that its ancestors have followed since the birth of the war spirit. The pattern on the stone wall should be the image of the cat's ancestors. It is not surprising that it can make you feel familiar.

Due to Yue Zun's pain, the first reaction was to pull back the injured palm. Therefore, there is not much blood on the stone nail. After filling half of the cat's head, it has been weak and cannot continue to flow.

As soon as Yue Zun saw this situation, his mind became lively. Thinking of the setting in front of him, did he need to use his blood to describe the cat's head completely to open the way out?

Thinking of this section, Yue Zun knocked on the stone wall in front of him with his left finger joint and carefully distinguished whether the sound was different. The result made him even more excited, and the sound of the stone wall at the cat's head pattern was really slightly different from the stone wall on the side.

That is to say, the back of this stone wall is likely to be empty. With this discovery, Yue Zun did not hesitate to loosen his left hand holding the wound, put his right palm, which was still bleeding after the injury, close to the stone nail, and let the blood from the wound flow along the stone nail to the cat head pattern.

In a while, the whole line of the cat's head was stained red with blood. Then Yue Zun heard a "rumbling" sound, and then saw that the stone wall in front of him was sliding to the left. After the stone wall, a rectangular passage about three meters high and two meters wide appeared.

There is a door! Yue Zun was in a turbulent mood and guessed what the situation was like inside the door. Looking into the passage, I found that there was a neat row of down stairs.

Yue Zun restrained his agitated mood and walked down the stairs. After walking for a while, I turned a corner and found a white skeleton lying on the stairs in front of me. My heart suddenly broke out and my expression turned solemn.

It seems that although nothing happened on the previous stone path, the crisis followed after entering the secret door.

Before Yue Zun came to the skeleton, he squatted down and looked carefully, hoping to find some useful clues from this skeleton to help judge what kind of danger there is ahead.

Although the skeleton is humanoid, the head structure is completely different from that of human beings. Because of the lack of relevant knowledge, Yue Zun could not identify it. It just looks a little familiar. It should be the head of some kind of canine.

Head up, lie on the stairs, with your left hand in front of your chest, and your right hand straight forward, crawling forward. It means that it should die on the way out. Except for the weathering of the bones due to the passage of time, there is no other damage, and the color of the bones is not abnormal.

The information that can be provided by this skeleton is really limited, and Yue Zun is a little disappointed. However, it is known that the latent threat in front of him will not kill people immediately, otherwise the original owner of the skeleton on the ground could not struggle to escape here.

Not far ahead, the ladder has come to an end. At the end, there is a simple stone door without any carved patterns. Yue Zun was a little nervous. I'm afraid that the owner of the previous skeleton died under the unknown threat behind this stone gate.

Shimen is relatively heavy. Yue Zun tried it with one hand and couldn't push it at all. He had to step down the horse, despite the unhealed injury of his right hand. He put his hands on the stone door and pushed it in with the strength of milk.

With a sound of stone rubbing, the stone door was slowly pushed open. Yue Zunsheng was afraid that there would be any danger, so he dared not continue to push the stone door. He lay on the crack of the door and observed the movement inside the door.

There seems to be no danger. Inside the door is a small hall, about 100 square meters in size. In the middle of the small hall, there seems to be a pool of more than ten square meters, surrounded by stone guardrails. The guardrails are about one meter high, and the bottom 30 centimeters are blocked by stone slabs, and there is no gap.

Therefore, whether there is anything in the pool cannot be seen from Yue Zun's current observation point of view. There is another stone door opposite the small hall. After the door, there is a passage to continue moving forward. Other than that, there is nothing else in the small hall.

Seeing that there was nothing strange in the small hall, Yue Zun's hanging heart was relieved. Perhaps, the skeleton did not happen here, but the danger encountered when it went further.

Continue to push the stone door and expand the gap to the size that can accommodate an adult, so he stopped. Entering the small hall, Yue Zun came to the edge of the small pool in the hall, put his hands on the top of the guardrail, leaned slightly forward, and inquired about the situation in the pool.

Although Yue Zun also knows that this is unlikely to be a place for inheritance, because there is such an obvious stone gate in front of it, which can still pass forward. But it's always true. If the pool really doesn't have anything to look for, it's not too late to continue through the stone gate.

At this look, Yue Zun suddenly felt a numbness in his scalp. There is water in the pool, but there are countless large but dry mosquitoes on the surface of the water. There are so many mosquitoes that they can almost cover this pool of water. Moreover, what made him most f different was that every mosquito was about to catch up with the size of a dragonfly.

I don't know whether these mosquitoes are dead or alive, and some people are so close without responding. However, Yue Zun believes that it is better to be careful about everything. Whether this mosquito is dead or alive, it is the best choice not to contact them.

Just as Yue was about to quietly leave the edge of the pool, when he didn't notice, a drop of blood gushed out of the wound of his right hand holding the guardrail and quietly fell into the pool...
