"If you have any doubts, you can go up and see if the wolf's body is there."
This sentence made Yi Wenxuan silent. He shrugged and said nothing more. Ni Yueshan shifted his gaze and fell on the stone gate in front.
The dust on the stone door was wiped off, revealing some lines, and Ni Yueshan reached out and touched it.
This stone gate is wide and majestic, thick, tall and deep in the stone wall. It is impossible to collapse the rock unless the door is opened.
We found the place, but even with a small amount of manpower, we couldn't open it.
Ni Yueshan folded his arms across his chest and fell silent.
Duan Gouqiong also looked around curiously: "Such a large stone gate must be more than ten times thicker than the city gate, right? With just a few of us, wow..."
She turned to look at Yi Wenxuan: "Why don't you go back now and tell your father about the situation here and ask him to send reinforcements?"
Yi Wenxuan stood there and ignored him. Shao Lecheng said, "I already know the terrain here, and the map is relatively complete. We can go back to Xianchang."
Ni Yueshan asked curiously, "Don't you want to know what's inside?"
Shao Lecheng shook his head.
"You want to leave? Fine, this princess has had enough of this place. Let's go together!"
Duan Gouqiong seemed to have heard some exciting news, and excitedly walked forward and pulled Shao Lecheng.
Seeing that several people were about to retreat, Yi Wenxuan said anxiously: "Everyone, don't leave. Stay, stay. Let's discuss together how to get in and explore the secrets inside. If you leave now, won't all the effort you put in before be wasted?"
Ni Yueshan said sternly, "The gate can't be opened. Even if it were, we don't know if there would be poisonous miasma or something like that inside. That would be suicide. Furthermore, we found a treasure in Tufan. As the eldest prince, can you allow us outsiders to take the treasure back to Xianchang?"
Ni Yueshan and the others were so upset that they gave up. Yi Wenxuan was surprised and said anxiously, "My relationship with my father has broken down. I naturally wouldn't think of harming you. Don't worry, if it really is a treasure, you will definitely have a share! I'm not greedy, I'll just calculate it based on the proportion!"
He glanced at the people present, "Five people, one-fifth each!"
This sounds fair indeed, but he is not the real eldest prince. No matter how sincere his words are, they are still fake.
Ni Yueshan glanced at the stone gate and then said, "Then let's persevere and see what secrets are behind this."
Duan Gouqiong sat down beside him and said, "I can't think of a solution."
Ni Yueshan walked forward and looked around, looking for a way to open the stone door.
Yi Wenxuan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Ni Yueshan staying. He followed beside her and said, "If you open this stone door incorrectly, you might be able to get in, but it's full of traps and you'll be dead. If you open it correctly, you might be able to travel freely without any risks."
Ni Yueshan still didn't reply. She looked around. She had seen a lot of TV dramas. Could this mechanism be based on the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams? She didn't understand those things at all.
Ni Yueshan was still thinking gloomily, then frowned and said in a commanding tone: "Everyone, be quiet."
The people present didn't know what Ni Yueshan wanted to do, and everyone fell silent.
Ni Yueshan looked towards the lampstand next to the stone gate. There seemed to be some noise on it.
"Give me the torch!"
Ni Yueshan stretched out her hand, and Shao Lecheng handed the torch in his hand to Ni Yueshan. Ni Yueshan held up the torch and lit the oil lamp on the lampstand above.
No one knows why Ni Yueshan did this.
Under the strange gazes of the crowd, Ni Yueshan stepped back. The originally quiet surroundings were then filled with the sound of gears turning. Everyone present looked at what was in front of them in surprise. They never thought that this was the way to open the door?
Duan Gouqiong looked at Ni Yueshan in surprise and asked curiously, "Sister Yueshan, how did you come up with the idea of doing this?"
"Just now, while you were talking, the torch was close to the lampstand, and the heat triggered the mechanism. However, the temperature is far from enough. We need to light the oil lamp, and perhaps we can open the door."
Ni Yueshan's explanation made everyone present understand the reason. Ni Yueshan just heard a strange noise coming from the lampstand.
The door slowly opened, and the people present stepped aside, their eyes all fixed on the stone door. The moment the stone door was opened, the eternal lamp on the wall was instantly lit, illuminating the stone door brightly.
Yi Wenxuan walked towards the stone chamber. Shao Lecheng looked at Duan Gouqiong worriedly and said, "Why don't you stay here?"
Duan Gouqiong shook his head: "If anything happens to you, I might as well die with you instead of living alone!"
"Pooh, pooh, pooh!" Shao Lecheng quickly spat twice, then took Duan Gouqiong's hand and said, "If there is really danger, I still hope you can go first."
A group of people walked towards the stone gate, and a cold breath rushed towards them. The air inside did not smell very fresh, and had a smell that had been sealed for a long time. The corridor was very long, with carved beams and painted buildings on both sides, and various statues and patterns were carved on the stone walls, some ferocious, some kind.
As they walked along, everyone present observed it once and then continued on their way.
"I guess there must be treasures in here!" Yi Wenxuan said, his tone full of excitement.
But Ni Yueshan's eyes darkened. Her heart was beating so fast. Why was her heart beating so wildly?
Her brows were furrowed tightly. Qingfeng, who was standing beside her, noticed Ni Yueshan's abnormality and asked worriedly, "Crown Princess, are you feeling unwell? Why don't you sit down and rest for a while?"
Ni Yueshan's face was already pale due to blood loss, and now, it seemed to be even worse.
