After the investigation team evacuated from the stone room, the three of them no longer had any burdens or worries.

But even so, it took a long time before I finally got over it.

These mechanisms are built very cleverly and are hidden deep in the stone walls and cannot be destroyed at all.

The mechanism will only lose its effect after all the stored poison needles are ejected.

The three of them could only continue to resist the elusive poisonous needles and the venomous snakes that gathered from all directions and stared at them eagerly.

In this stone room, the three people became each other's backing, each responsible for a direction.

Wu Sangou, whose combat effectiveness is slightly weaker, can not be underestimated with his chainmail and Luoyang shovel in his hand.

I don't know how long it took, but the last poisonous needle was shot out, and all the mechanisms finally failed.

Zhang Qilin held the handle of the knife and looked around:

"There may be a way out over there..."

The direction Zhang Qilin pointed was the direction where the human figure was found and the animal footprints were seen extending.

Although the three of them didn't know what the animal was, and they weren't sure if there was really any medicine in the world, but since the animal disappeared, it must be because there was some imperceptible passage hidden there.

At this time, the three of them couldn't care less about rest, and immediately walked in that direction.

From just now, when resisting the trap and poisonous snakes, Hu Bayi and the others noticed the thinness of oxygen.

Now they must hurry up and leave here, otherwise they will really not be able to get out.

Coming to the footprints again, Hu Bayi asked with some confusion:

"Can you tell what kind of animal it is from these footprints?"

The well-informed Wu Sangou replied without any hesitation:

“Rhombus-shaped footprints are usually those of carnivorous canines.

But what it is specifically, it’s hard to say…”

While the two were talking, Zhang Qilin groped for something on the wall with his slender fingers without saying a word.

"Click!"

Without warning, Zhang Qilin inserted his two fingers into the stone wall again, and the two of them were stunned for a moment.

Wu Sangou swallowed deeply:

"These fingers are made of iron?"

Hu Bayi looked at Zhang Qilin and joked:

"I take back what I said before. Not many people can bear this..."

As Zhang Qilin slowly withdrew his hand, a new mechanism opened on the ground behind the three people, revealing a path to the underground.

"Um?"

Hu Bayi looked at this new entrance in confusion and frowned:

"Judging from the murals, Yingxian Terrace should be built on a high place. How can this place be connected to the underground?"

"Isn't this the road to Yingxian Terrace?"

This passage leading to the underground made Hu Bayi and Wu Sangou very confused.

They could clearly see in the mural before that the Yingxian Terrace was built at the highest point of the entire facility.

Therefore, I instinctively felt that the passage opened through the mechanism should be parallel or extend to the outdoors.

Moreover, the previously shining stone door did not open because Zhang Qilin found the mechanism.

Instead, an unexpected passage appeared...

Wu Sangou walked to the bright stone door with some reluctance. After looking up and down, he walked back dejectedly:

"We have no choice but to take this route. The stone door is sealed and it doesn't seem to be opened by a mechanism.

I suspect this should be the entrance and exit used by the craftsmen at that time.

Later, due to the completion of the work, all the craftsmen were silenced, and the stone gate was completely sealed and could no longer be opened. "

Wu Sangou's speculation was very realistic. After hearing this, Hu Bayi could only nod:

"There is no other way. If we stay here any longer, the oxygen will only become thinner and thinner.

It’s better to take advantage of this opportunity and see if you can get out of this way..."

Immediately, Hu Bayi took the lead and walked down the stone steps leading underground.

Wu Sangou followed closely behind, while Zhang Qilin was at the back.

The three of them followed this unexpected passage and headed to an unknown place.

However, they didn't know that just when they triggered the mechanism, it wasn't just the underground passage in front of them that opened.

"Click!"

There was a sound of a mechanism, which was particularly harsh in the silent stone room.

The members of the investigation team had already entered a semi-conscious state due to the thin oxygen.

With the sound of the mechanism, the closed stone door slowly opened.

The new oxygen flowed in, causing everyone to take deep breaths subconsciously, and finally gradually regained some consciousness.

Chen Wenjin stood up with difficulty while holding on to the wall, unable to believe her eyes.

The stone door... why did it open by itself...

Zhuge Qing searched around and around but couldn't find the exit. Under the dual effects of exhaustion and thin oxygen, he opened his eyes after being called for a long time.

Greedily breathing in the new oxygen, Zhuge Qing finally had hope in his eyes.

"Have you found the mechanism?"

Facing Zhuge Qing's inquiry, Chen Wenjin shook his head:

"The stone door opened by itself..."

When Zhuge Qing heard this, he subconsciously looked back at the stone door at the entrance of the second stone room. It was still closed, and he frowned slightly:

"Perhaps they triggered the mechanism..."

Chen Wenjin also looked back with some worry. She still doesn't know what the situation of the three people is, and she is not even sure whether they are still alive.

But Chen Wenjin had to choose to be responsible for the people in front of him. If he stayed here any longer, once the stone gate was closed, everyone here would be buried with him.

Thinking of this, Chen Wenjin suppressed the sadness in her heart:

"Go out first and report the situation here. Maybe it's still too late..."

In fact, Chen Wenjin himself didn’t believe these words.

Can you make it?

Maybe when you enter this place again, you will only see a few corpses...
