After a while, the water gradually calmed down. Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief and swam out of the depression. He looked at the stone gate again. The symbols seemed even more mysterious after the recent changes. "Ye Li, the water has stabilized. I'm fine. But I still don't understand these symbols. I'll study them more carefully." Lin Yu said. Despite the life-or-death test he had just experienced, his determination to find the truth remained undimmed.
Lin Yu carefully examined the symbols on the stone gate again. He connected the star map, the flying bird pattern, and other related symbols, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. "Ye Li, I have a bold idea. Could these symbols indicate a specific time point, and the flying bird pattern represent some form of information transmission or guidance? Perhaps we need to trigger these symbols in a certain order to open the stone gate," Lin Yu said, his eyes revealing excitement and anticipation. His heart was filled with anticipation, hoping that this idea would be the key to solving the mystery of the stone gate.
Ye Li thought for a moment and said, "It's possible. You can try to gently touch those symbols in the order you speculated, but be careful. You don't know if doing so will trigger other dangers." There was a hint of worry in Ye Li's voice, but she also understood that she needed to take a risk at this time.
Lin Yu took a deep breath, slowly reached out his hand, and gently touched the symbols in the order he had deduced. When he touched the last symbol, a soft light suddenly illuminated the stone door, spreading along the lines of the symbols. The entire stone door seemed to be given life. Then, the stone door emitted a dull roar and slowly opened. A stale and decayed smell hit him, making Lin Yu frown. "The stone door is open, but this smell inside... I feel like there's something bad going on inside," Lin Yu said, a sense of foreboding welling up in his heart. His heartbeat accelerated rapidly, anticipating the scene beyond the stone door while dreading the unknown dangers he was about to face.
As the stone door opened completely, the scene within gradually unfolded before Lin Yu's eyes. Within the doorway lay a vast, extremely dimly lit space, with only a faint blue glow emanating from the walls, barely illuminating a small area around it. In the center of the space stood a massive stone platform, upon which rested a dimly luminous crystal coffin. Within the coffin lay a corpse, dressed in ornate attire. The corpse's face was perfectly preserved, yet possessed an indescribable eeriness. Scattered around the platform were a number of oddly shaped instruments, some resembling incense burners used for rituals, others resembling unknown weapons, their surfaces engraved with mysterious symbols similar to those on the stone door.
"I see a huge stone platform inside the door. On it lies a corpse in a crystal coffin, surrounded by strange instruments. This body looks eerie, and it feels like this place is filled with secrets," Lin Yu said, his voice echoing in the enclosed space, a sense of emptiness and tension. His heart was filled with doubt and fear. Who was this mysterious body? What was the purpose of these instruments? What secrets did this space hide? Everything was waiting for him to uncover.
Ye Li, hearing Lin Yu's description on the boat, was filled with surprise and curiosity. "Lin Yu, don't get close to the body or the instruments. Observe carefully for any abnormalities. This place has a strange aura. Be careful," Ye Li said, her eyes etched with worry as she stared intently at the monitoring equipment, trying to gather more information about Lin Yu's surroundings.
Lin Yu swam around the stone platform, carefully observing the surrounding environment. He found that the walls were covered with murals, depicting some strange sacrificial scenes. People dressed in gorgeous clothes were dancing around a huge fireball, and above the fireball was a group of birds flying high. In the corners of the murals, there were some small words, but due to their age, they were no longer clear. "There are many murals on the walls, which seem to depict sacrificial scenes, and there are some blurry words. I feel that these murals are related to the previous symbols and bird patterns, but the words are not clear and I don't know what they say." Lin Yu said, frowning, trying to find more clues from the murals.
At this moment, Lin Yu suddenly felt a chill from behind, and the feeling of being watched intensified again. He subconsciously turned around and saw that the corpse in the crystal coffin had slowly opened its eyes. Those eyes flashed a strange red light and stared at him intently... "Ah! The corpse's eyes are open, and they are still glowing red, looking at me! What the hell is going on?" Lin Yu shouted in horror, holding the weapon tightly in his hand, and his body trembled uncontrollably. At this moment, his heart was filled with fear, as if he was tightly bound by an invisible force, unable to break free...
