Although the corridor turned into an upward slanting tunnel, the tunnel was still empty and appeared very spacious and deep.
After walking forward for a few minutes, Xu Xin suddenly felt the ground shaking slightly, and the amplitude of the vibration became larger and larger. He also heard the sound of something hitting the wall from deep in the tunnel.
"What's going on?" He became alert.
The four stone statues were very calm. Chang Yin said easily, "Don't worry, the first trap is here."
Xu Xin frowned and squinted his eyes as he looked forward. When he saw what was approaching, his eyes widened.
Rolling Stones!
It was a massive boulder, slightly smaller in diameter than the tunnel's width. As it rolled downward, it kept hitting the stone walls on both sides. Because of the slope, the boulder was accelerating, and it was likely to hit them in a few seconds.
You have to find the rhythm of the rolling stone hitting the wall, and while it hits one side of the wall, you have to dodge it from the other side!
Xu Xin was concentrating on avoiding the rolling stones when the long seal in front of him suddenly hit the wall. A part of the stone wall immediately caved in, forming a small hole that was two meters high and less than one meter wide. The hole was several meters deep.
"Go in and hide." Chang Yin directly dragged Xu Xin in, and then the four stone statues also hid in.
...Isn't this a bit shameless, just making a hole in the wall to hide the mechanism?
A few seconds later, a boulder rolled through the cave entrance with a loud noise, hit the entrance, and continued to roll down.
Stone chips flew everywhere and hit Chang Yin who was standing at the door, but he seemed to feel no pain and just patted the gravel off his body.
"……it's over?"
"It's still early, wait."
At this time, the little boy next to Xu Xin tugged at Xu Xin's clothes and said, "Uncle, we've played this game before. There will be a series of rolling stones coming down. It's hard to just dodge them. So, we can just make a hole in the wall and wait for the stones to pass."
There are also several rolling stones in a row? Xu Xin's mouth twitched. If he were to do it alone, dodging one would be easy, but dodging several in a row would be too difficult.
But... uncle? Who is your uncle? If we really count the ages, this little boy statue must be at least fifty years old. You are more like my uncle, Xu Xin complained in his heart.
Xu Xin suddenly felt like something was missing.
"Wait, where is the cheetah? The cheetah is still outside!" Xu Xin found that the cheetah that had been following behind him did not enter the cave, and he became a little anxious. He admired this cheetah very much.
"Don't worry, it's fine. If it can't dodge with its speed, then this mechanism doesn't want other people to survive. This is only the first mechanism, it's not that strong." Chang Yin said calmly.
Xu Xin looked outside through the gap between the stone statues. The mutant cheetah was unharmed at this time. It even lay down and groomed its fur with its tongue.
It looked at the small hole where several people were squeezed in with some disgust, and had no intention of coming in.
Seeing its relaxed look, Xu Xin felt relieved and leaned against the innermost part of the cave with peace of mind. He even took out an ordinary apple and started to eat it.
While eating, he felt a little regretful. If he had known that he would be out for so long, he would have grilled some meat and brought it out. He really wanted to eat meat.
The loud noise coming from the back of the tunnel should be because the boulder got stuck. After all, the tunnel below is getting narrower and narrower, and the boulder will always get stuck in one place.
Not long after, the ground began to shake again, and the sound of rolling and colliding came from above again. This time the sound was more frequent, and it sounded like three rolling stones.
Although Xu Xin had cheated to avoid the trap, he already had the best plan in mind. After dodging the first boulder, he should continue moving forward as much as possible, because the tunnel would become wider as he moved forward, giving him a wider area to dodge and making it easier to avoid the boulder.
"Run forward, there's more room to hide!" Xu Xin shouted to the cheetah outside. The cheetah seemed to understand what Xu Xin meant and kicked off, disappearing.
This is really fast.
Soon, three boulders rolled through the cave entrance, and three loud noises were heard from behind.
"Don't worry, there's more."
Also... this mechanism is really life-threatening.
"Oh..." Coco on my shoulder was also awakened by the loud noises. He rubbed his eyes with his little paws, took a look at the current situation, found that there was no danger, and lay down to sleep again.
The ground began to shake again, and this time the noise was more frequent. Not long after, five boulders rolled down from the edge of the cave and got stuck at the back.
"There shouldn't be any more." Chang Yin looked deep into the tunnel.
"Let's wait a little longer, just in case."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Chang Yin shrugged.
