Yan Ning walked along the mountain path with light steps.
She was so familiar with the mountain environment that it felt like coming home.
As she walked, she observed her surroundings, searching for possible clues.
After walking for about half an hour, Yan Ning came to a fork in the road.
The road on the left looks wider, while the road on the right appears narrower and more desolate.
It's another classic "either/or" dilemma in adventure games.
Generally speaking, in horror novels, choosing the wrong path leads to death.
Yan Ning stopped and carefully observed the surrounding environment.
Suddenly, she noticed a stone on the right side of the road with something carved on it.
Yan Ning squatted down to take a look and saw some strange and hidden symbols.
These symbols look quite old; they must have been carved a long time ago.
Yan Ning remembered that her grandmother had said that the treasure map mentioned some special markings on some rocks and big trees in the mountains.
Maybe these are the symbols?
Yan Ning had a sudden thought and decided to continue along the path on the right.
She walked cautiously, constantly observing her surroundings.
After walking for about ten minutes, she arrived at the entrance of a cave.
The cave entrance was partially obscured by vines and branches, making it appear somewhat hidden.
She pushed aside the vines and entered the cave.
The cave was pitch black, with only a faint light coming in through the entrance.
Yan Ning turned on her phone's flashlight, illuminating the road ahead.
She slowly walked along the cave wall, occasionally touching it with her hand, searching for possible clues.
After walking about ten meters, she noticed some strange symbols on the cave wall.
These symbols were exactly the same as the ones she had seen on the roadside stones.
Yan Ning became increasingly convinced that these symbols might be clues to the treasure from back then.
She continued deeper into the cave, where the light grew dimmer and dimmer, and Yan Ning's flashlight became the only source of light.
Her heartbeat quickened, but her steps did not slow down.
"Waaaaahh ...
Suddenly, a cold wind blew from deep inside the cave, making Yan Ning shiver.
She stopped and listened carefully. She heard a faint sound, like someone whispering.
Yan Ning held her breath and slowly walked forward, her voice growing clearer and clearer.
It came from behind the boulder in front.
Yan Ning carefully walked around the boulder, and suddenly the view opened up before her.
A gust of wind howled and lashed her body.
Before them lay a sheer cliff, its bottom unseen.
On the nearby cliff, there was a cave with a dark entrance.
Many people's belongings were hanging beside the cave.
Hats, shoes, pieces of clothing, and even one or two cell phones.
Yan Ning's heart sank. She immediately understood that this cave must be the place where her grandmother and the old woman had mentioned where the treasure was hidden.
The items hanging at the cave entrance are undoubtedly relics of those explorers.
Perhaps driven by greed, or perhaps by curiosity, they all ultimately met their demise here.
Yan Ning's gaze fell on the narrow path leading to the cave.
The path is winding and narrow, allowing only one person to pass at a time, and it looks very steep; a slight misstep could send you sliding off the cliff.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
She knew she had no way out; now that she was here, she had to go into the cave!
She quickly took out a thick rope from her backpack, skillfully tied one end of the rope to a sturdy tree, and then tied the other end around her waist.
She checked the rope to make sure it was secure, and after confirming that there were no problems, she resolutely stepped onto the path.
But as soon as Yan Ning stepped off the path, she felt that the scene in front of her was becoming blurry.
Everything looks a bit blurry.
She blinked hard, trying to see more clearly.
She suddenly felt a strange sensation under her feet, as if the ground beneath her feet was trembling slightly.
Her heart tightened suddenly, and she instinctively stopped and looked around warily.
At that moment, Yan Ning suddenly noticed that the clouds below were exceptionally beautiful.
The clouds were like a splendid brocade, red as fire, pink as the sunset, and yellow as gold.
They were layered upon layered, ever-changing, as if the entire sky was filled with these magnificent colors.
A strong impulse welled up in Yan Ning's heart, as if an invisible force was calling to her.
I wanted to let her blend into this dreamlike and beautiful scenery.
Absolutely stunning! You absolutely have to see this!
Go take a look! Missing out will be a lifelong regret!
Keep going, keep going...
Yan Ning felt a little dizzy and unconsciously lifted her foot to walk down.
Until one foot suddenly stepped into empty air.
The moment she lost her balance brought her back to her senses.
Yan Ning then realized that he had actually walked to the edge of a cliff!
One more step forward and you will fall into that bottomless abyss and be shattered to pieces.
Her heart leaped into her throat, and she broke out in a cold sweat.
She immediately realized that the beautiful scenery of rising clouds and mist had deceived her!
The phenomenon of clouds and mist is a natural phenomenon. The swirling clouds and mist create a sense of illusion, which can easily cause people to lose their way or even fall off a cliff.
Many explorers have climbed to the top of a mountain and let their guard down.
As a result, he was misled by the beautiful clouds and mist, lost his footing, fell off the cliff, and was smashed to pieces. His body was never found.
Yan Ning stood still, took a few deep breaths, and tried to calm herself down.
Looking at the items hanging at the entrance of the cave, she couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.
Countless treasure hunters, drawn by the breathtaking scenery, have fallen into the void and perished without a trace.
Yan Ning understood that the road leading to the cave was definitely fraught with danger, and he had to be even more careful.
She gripped the rope tightly and carefully took steps toward the cave entrance.
Every step was extremely difficult.
She was filled with nervousness, but she also knew that she couldn't give up.
Finally, Yan Ning followed the path and successfully arrived at the cave entrance.
She stood at the entrance of the cave, gazing into the dark cavern inside.
It was very quiet inside, without a sound, as if it concealed endless unknowns and dangers.
A faint breeze blew out of the cave, carrying a chilly aura that made Yan Ning shiver.
She took a deep breath, preparing to step into the mysterious cave.
Just then, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind her:
"Ah Ning, what are you doing here?"
Yan Ning turned around abruptly, her pupils dilating slightly.
She couldn't believe her ears; the voice was so familiar.
She saw a figure standing at the cave entrance, walking towards her.
In the dim sunlight, the figure appeared somewhat blurry, but Yan Ning recognized it at a glance.
