"Brother, am I dreaming? How come a big stone frog suddenly appeared on the cliff?" Ning Xiyue widened her eyes, staring blankly at the thing that appeared on the cliff and asked in doubt.
She recognized this thing. It was a frog that people in Xiaozi Country built in front of their doors to guard the gates. It symbolized good luck and was similar to the stone lions in front of the doors of wealthy families in China.
Ning Qingzhi did not answer. He was as surprised as everyone else, but more excited.
He and Gangzi walked towards the Koma frog on the mountain wall to check.
After checking, there was no danger. It was just an ordinary stone sculpture that did not attack. But it was not ordinary when it appeared here. The two of them were making secret signals to each other that only they could understand.
Gangzi blinked at Ning Qingzhi with excitement in his eyes.
"Brother, what do you think? How could there be such a thing on this cliff? It's incredible. Could it be left behind by some powerful predecessor?"
Ning Qingyuan was the most shocked person present, and his expression was the most genuine. At the same time, seeing such a magical scene, his mind was full of beautiful guesses. He was the only one who didn't understand the twists and turns involved, and his thoughts were very simple.
"Don't talk yet."
Ning Qingzhi said this without turning his head and continued to grope the Koma frog.
"Gangzi, go find Lao Ji and come over as soon as possible."
"yes."
Gangzi ran very fast and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Ning Xiyue looked away after seeing the Koma frog's appearance clearly. It was obvious that the gate had not yet found the opening mechanism, and only one of the gatekeeper frogs was open. However, the door was right around that frog, and it couldn't run away.
The most important thing now is to find the mechanism to open the door. In addition to the clues provided by the frog, the stone in her hand is also crucial now. She has to study it while her brother is not paying attention to this side, and try to find the door before Comrade Ji comes.
Seeing that his elder brother was too busy to pay attention to them, Ning Qingyuan also immersed himself in studying the stone with Ning Xiyue.
"Sister, how did you open it?" Ning Qingyuan asked curiously, using the hatchet in his hand to dig the mud around the stone with Ning Xiyue.
"How would I know? I just twisted it casually." Ning Xiyue pretended not to know.
In fact, she thought that many mechanisms in the TV can be opened like turning a screw, so she tried turning it casually, and she didn't expect that it could actually turn.
"Second brother, I admire your luck too. You can find something unique just by falling down."
The two siblings squatted together and chatted in low voices, their hands moving non-stop.
After Ning Qingzhi finished studying the Koma Frog, he already had an idea in his mind and discovered something. When he turned around, he saw the two little ancestors digging the most critical mechanism there.
My heart was lifted up, and I ran over quickly: "Hey, stop it, both of you, and stop destroying it."
Ning Qingyuan was dreaming of a beautiful fantasy, and his hands did not stop: "No, we will be careful and only dig mud, so we won't touch any rocks."
"Yes, but be careful. Look, the bottom of this stone is quite long, as if it has grown a leg." Ning Xiyue pretended not to know anything else. He kept his hands moving and diverted his brother's attention.
Ning Qingzhi saw that the stone looked like a mushroom, with a lid on top and roots underneath. He didn't know how long the roots were, so he didn't care about them digging the mud and quickly squatted down to check it out.
Of course, he didn't find out anything, so Ning Qingzhi turned his attention to checking other stones around him one by one to see if there was anything unusual.
Ning Xiyue and Ning Qingyuan, both experts at digging mud, persevered and managed to dig up the entire area around the mushroom-like stone, revealing a long stem underneath.
Ning Xiyue, who was lying on the ground and continuing to dig the mud, glanced inside the stone cover for some unknown reason. Hey, what is this?
Ning Xiyue used the tip of the sickle to dig a few times at the connection between the stone cover and the pole below, removing the mud and revealing a gap. She then used the pole of a dogtail grass to clean out the remaining mud.
"Sister, have you found anything?" Ning Qingyuan paid attention to Ning Xiyue's movements, and also lay on the ground and looked up like her sister, and asked in a low voice.
"We'll know soon."
Ning Xiyue dug out three cracks in a U shape, pried it with a knife, and finally pulled it off with her fingernails. It was a piece of metal, but the specific material was unclear.
"This...what is this?" Ning Qingyuan looked at the thing curiously.
"Brother, take it."
Ning Qingyuan held it in his hands at a loss. He wanted to call his elder brother, but he didn't disturb him because he was busy elsewhere.
Ning Xiyue lay down and looked at the structure under the stone cover. She had some idea, so she held the stone and pressed it down.
This time the pressure worked, and the stone really pushed down like a button.
It turned out to be a fake stone.
"This, this, this..." Ning Qingyuan was stunned. He couldn't press it down before, but after taking this thing out, he could press it down. It was amazing.
"Boom...Boom..."
“Squeak, squeak, squeak…”
The sound of falling rocks and the harsh sound of the long-sealed stone door rubbing against each other rang out, and the whole mountain seemed to be shaking.
Ning Qingyuan, who had never seen such a thing, opened his mouth even wider.
Ning Qingzhi looked around and saw a doorway exposed in the mountain next to him. He admired his younger brother and sister's luck.
After falling, they not only discovered something unusual in the mountains, but also figured out the exact entrance. Although they didn't know if this was the place they were looking for, there was definitely something wrong here.
"Awesome, you guys are the best." Ning Qingzhi gave his younger brothers and sisters a thumbs up and said in admiration.
Ning Xiyue and Ning Qingyuan now only had the cave entrance in their eyes, and they quickly walked towards the exposed cave entrance.
"Don't go in yet." Ning Qingzhi shouted loudly and ran over quickly.
Ning Qingyuan excitedly touched the stone at the entrance of the cave and looked inside.
