I felt a little panicked.
Holy crap, these ancient people could even sense what we're doing right now. Aren't we always behind this stone platform?
Logically speaking, he shouldn't be able to see any of these things. Could it be that he has such an incredibly powerful sense of perception?
I'm starting to get a little anxious.
At that moment, I was also peering out from inside the shell, just looking at the outside environment. Those two guys did move closer to me.
However, after seeing the seashell, it didn't react at all, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Well, it seems this seashell does have some use. Then I started to examine it more closely. The inside of the seashell was already as tall as two people, much larger than before.
Moreover, this seashell has some special patterns on it, and it does seem to be more exquisite than when we came in before.
When I came in with the girl, I didn't pay much attention to it, but now it seems that this thing really is a great treasure.
"Brother, I never thought this thing could fit all three of us!"
The girl's voice held a hint of surprise, and I nodded in agreement.
Yes, while we can't guarantee our safety now, it's definitely much better than being exposed to the elements like before.
Then, I peered out again, and I guessed that only we could see the shell clearly from the inside out.
But when they look inside from the outside, they probably can't see anything at all.
If that's the case, then it's really good news for me. This seashell must have originally been in the Dragon Palace, and its hardness is definitely sufficient.
If neither of them has any doubts about the shell, I think we could replenish our energy just by resting here.
Just when I thought everything had settled down for the time being, I heard the ancient man outside giving instructions to the fat man again. He just spoke coldly.
"Search...this area!"
The voice of this ancient person remained unchanged, ethereal as if it came from hell.
And it was at this moment that the girl was so frightened that she held her breath, and I also dared not make a sound, for fear that the sound inside the seashell would be amplified.
Moreover, I looked at the structure of this shell and it was all spiral-shaped, like a combination of a seashell and a conch shell.
It was indeed very quiet inside, and I was afraid that if we made even the slightest noise, they would find us. Although this seashell was large, it was about the same size as that fat man.
I'm afraid that if we stay here too long, they'll discover us as soon as we make a sound. They might just pour energy into this place, which would be more than enough.
The next second, the fat man actually stopped walking.
He seemed to be groping around on it, but after a while, the fat man left.
I was overjoyed.
Well, this guy really does seem pretty stupid. The next second, the fat man went to the vicinity of the gap and started groping around there again.
Moreover, I could feel that the ancient man's walking stick was slowly moving closer to us.
I thought to myself, it's obvious that this guy is checking things out bit by bit.
Even so, Lei Jijian still spoke directly and bluntly.
"Master, we might as well go out and fight them head-on. We're just resting here for now!"
We can't rely on this method to directly reach the shallows or the manor!
At this moment, Lei Jijian's voice was extremely tense.
But just as I was about to blame Lei Jijian for speaking so loudly, I sensed that the ancient people outside seemed to have no reaction at all.
This gave me a bold idea.
Wow, this shell's soundproofing isn't actually that good than we thought! It seems like even when we're talking loudly, the sound is significantly reduced or weakened.
The only thing that remained unchanged was the sound of their interaction outside; the audio was very clear.
I used the only sliver of light that could penetrate to look at the girl, and spoke softly.
"Let them search this area first, then we'll figure something out..."
The girl nodded, and the redness in her eyes had noticeably decreased compared to before; instead, she appeared calmer.
I know that the girl will feel more at ease after seeing that the two people don't react.
After all, as long as these people don't discover us, we won't have any problems.
The next second, something else happened. I noticed that after the fat man had touched the people in the mural for a while, they all felt a great fear, and everyone started to panic.
That would have been fine, but the next second they all seemed to sense something and pointed in unison into the distance. I realized that this location was exactly in the direction of our seashell.
"Damn it, how could they possibly sense that?" I thought to myself, completely baffled.
Previously, these guys were just making some noise or causing a commotion, but after all, they were just people in the murals.
It's just some stones with some paint, how could you possibly feel anything?
I glanced at the girl again, and gave her the same unnatural look. The girl looked at me with the same helpless expression.
I was thinking to myself that if these guys really caused any trouble, it would be a huge loss.
We finally managed to hide some seashells, but these people inside the murals have ruined it.
Moreover, I noticed that the people in the murals were all talking nonsense, as if they had really experienced something.
However, the only thing that makes me somewhat relieved is that this fat guy's intelligence is still performing consistently well.
He looked around and found nothing, then began to smash the mural repeatedly.
Those people were taken aback at first, then looked at the fat man with a very strange expression.
It was precisely because of their gazes that the fat man smashed the object even harder.
I could feel a commotion outside.
Immediately afterwards, some of the people in the mural began to move to the side.
