Chapter 280: Temporary refuge in the cave, clues emerge



"Suna, wake up quickly, look at the pattern on the wall." Lin Yu gently woke Suna up, his voice filled with a hint of uncontrollable excitement. He knew that in this journey full of mysteries, any clue could be the key to unlocking the secret.

Suna's eyes snapped open, and she quickly walked over to Lin Yu. She looked in the direction Lin Yu pointed, her eyes flashing with excitement. "This looks like a castle. Could these symbols be some kind of clue? Perhaps they're related to our quest to find the gemstone?" Her voice trembled with excitement, as if she saw a glimmer of hope for finding the gemstone.

The two men immediately leaned over and began to carefully study the patterns and symbols on the wall. Lin Yu frowned, his gaze fixed on the symbols, trying to find some familiar traces. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he noticed that one of the symbols was similar to the runes they had seen in the ruins before. Although the similarity was only subtle, it was undoubtedly a significant discovery in the face of such a lack of clues. "This symbol may be related to the whereabouts of the gem," Lin Yu said with a hint of certainty in his tone.

They discovered some markings within the pattern that resembled routes. These markings, composed of zigzagging lines and strange nodes, seemed to be guiding them to some mysterious destination. "Could this be telling us where the next gem is?" Suna speculated, her eyes filled with anticipation. An inexplicable excitement welled up in her heart, as if she saw a path to the truth slowly unfolding.

"It's very possible. But these symbols and routes are too vague. We have to find a way to figure them out. Maybe we've missed some key information, or we need some special method to decipher them." Lin Yu frowned, feeling both excited and worried. He was excited that he finally had a clue that might lead to the next gem, but he was worried that these clues were so obscure that he didn't know where to start.

Just then, a faint sound emanated from outside the cave. It was so subtle, like someone cautiously moving through the grass, or the rustling of leaves in the wind, yet it seemed particularly abrupt in the still night. Lin Yu and Suna were immediately alert. Lin Yu quickly extinguished the fire, and the cave instantly plunged into darkness. He motioned to Suna to be quiet, and they both held their breath, quietly peering out through the crack in the cave entrance.

Moonlight streamed across the forest floor like water, shrouding everything in a thin, silvery veil. Beneath the dappled shadows of the trees, a dark figure flashed by like a ghost. Its form was nimble, its movements agile, as if blending seamlessly with the darkness. If one hadn't seen it with one's own eyes, one would have been hard-pressed to detect its presence.

"Are the men in black chasing us?" Su Na asked in a low voice, her voice trembling slightly with fear. She clutched Lin Yu's arm tightly, her fingers turning white from the force, as if this could dispel the fear in her heart.

Lin Yu stared at the direction where the black shadow disappeared, his eyes revealing vigilance and confusion: "I don't know, but we can't take it lightly. The appearance of this black shadow is too strange. If it is a man in black, why doesn't he attack directly? Is there other forces secretly watching us? Or, is this related to the clue we just found? " His heart was full of questions, and every guess made his nerves tense.

After the shadow vanished, peace returned to the surroundings, as if everything had just been an illusion. But Lin Yu and Suna dared not let their guard down. They remained at the cave entrance, their eyes fixed on the darkness beyond. They didn't know if the shadow was friend or foe, nor did they know what dangers lay ahead. But they knew they had to uncover the mystery of the patterns and symbols on the wall to find the next gem. What thrilling adventure would they embark on in this uncharted forest?

Lin Yu thought to himself, "This black shadow came too suddenly, and there must be an ulterior motive behind it. If it is the men in black, they will not let us go easily. But if it is other forces, the situation will be more complicated. No matter what, we must protect Suna and unlock the secret of the gem. Even if there is endless darkness ahead, I will open up a bright path for Suna." Suna was also thinking in her heart, "There are many dangers along the way. I didn't expect to find clues that may be related to the gems in this cave. I hope I can solve the mystery smoothly and find the remaining gems. But this black shadow makes everything even more confusing. I really don't know what I will encounter next. However, as long as I am with Lin Yu, there is nothing to be afraid of." They guarded the entrance of the cave vigilantly with doubts and expectations, their hearts beating violently with the fear of the unknown and the expectation of the future, waiting for the arrival of the unknown, as if waiting for the dawn in the darkness. Although the darkness before the dawn is the deepest, their beliefs are like the brightest stars in the night sky, illuminating their way forward.
