Xueying agreed and then stood at the cave entrance, waiting for Lin Yuxin.
Lin Yuxin didn't ramble on. She walked to the entrance of the tunnel. If she didn't go down into this tunnel today, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
Xueying took out a tinderbox and said to Lin Yuxin:
"Princess, please follow behind me."
"Um."
Lin Yuxin nodded, then took out her silver needles, ready at any moment.
Xueying went down first, followed closely by Lin Yuxin, with Wang Yu following behind Lin Yuxin.
There are ladders in this tunnel. Xueying just didn't pay attention to where she was stepping. Suddenly a hole appeared, and she fell down because she wasn't prepared.
Xueying held a tinderbox in front, and Lin Yuxin followed behind by the light of the fire.
The staircase had only eight steps. After climbing the stairs, there was a long passage. The three of them carefully walked forward.
The passage had no turns; you just kept walking straight ahead for a while until the road ended.
"Princess, is this a dead end?"
Xueying looked at the wall in front of her and said with a frown.
"Look around and see if there are any hidden mechanisms!"
Lin Yuxin stepped forward and tapped the stone wall in front of her as she spoke.
She didn't believe they'd gone to the trouble of digging a tunnel only to find it was a dead end; there must be another door. Besides, isn't that what they show on TV? Secret rooms and tunnels always have mechanisms! How would they know if they didn't try?
Thinking this, Lin Yuxin tapped even harder.

Lin Yuxin knocked for a while but didn't notice anything wrong.
[Could I have been wrong? Is this the end of the tunnel? Then what was the point of building this section? No, there must be an exit, they just haven't found it yet.]
Lin Yuxin frowned, deep in thought.
