Li Rong noticed Gu Sang's expression, and a bright smile appeared on his lips. He said, "Let me see what's written in here!"
As Li Rong spoke, she bent down and approached Gu Sang's feet, looking at the floor beneath Gu Sang's feet, and then looked up at Gu Sang.
Li Rong looked at Gu Sang's face.
This was the second time he had seen Gu Sang. The first time he saw Gu Sang, she was very thin and frail, as if a gust of wind could blow her over. But now, Gu Sang had gained weight and become healthier.
Moreover, Gu Sang's figure has become more proportionate.
Her originally slender body has become full and rounded.
Gu Sang was originally beautiful.
Now, a lot of flesh has grown on her cheeks.
Seeing this, Li Rong couldn't help but sigh, "This little girl has actually grown taller."
However, Gu Sang looks even cuter this way.
“Hey, it says ‘Hello!’ in big letters here.” Li Rong looked at Gu Sang and slowly read the words aloud.
“No, you might have misread it. This isn’t ‘hello,’ but rather… ‘I’m fine.’” Gu Sang said calmly, looking at Li Rong.
“This isn’t how you write ‘I’m fine’,” Li Rong said slowly, frowning as she looked at Gu Sang.
"Hmm." Gu Sang nodded in response.
"Read it again carefully, is that what you mean?" Li Rong said, handing the dagger in her hand to Gu Sang so that Gu Sang could read.
Seeing this, Gu Sang took the dagger from Li Rong.
After Gu Sang took the dagger, she looked at Li Rong, nodded, and said, "I understand!"
"Then let's slowly search around this room and see if there are any other ways out!" Gu Sang said, putting away the dagger.
"Okay." Li Rong nodded upon hearing this.
Upon hearing this, Gu Sang patted the dirt off her hands and said, "Let's keep looking!"
"Mm." Li Rong nodded upon hearing this.
Upon hearing this, Gu Sang walked towards a row of wooden cabinets to the side, intending to open them to see if there were any mechanisms or other exits inside before making further plans.
However, when Gu Sang opened the wooden cabinet door, she did not see any mechanism or way out.
Inside the wooden cabinet were only two rows of wooden shelves, which were filled with all kinds of vases and flowers, which bloomed beautifully on the shelves.
“These are flowers from our hometown!” Li Rong said slowly, looking at the flowers in the wooden cabinet.
“Yes, these are flowers from our hometown. These flowers must have been specially brought back from another country by the gardeners in our hometown.” Gu Sang nodded upon hearing this.
"Why do you import flowers from other countries to your hometown?" Li Rong asked Gu Sang, somewhat puzzled.
"I don't know either." Gu Sang shook her head upon hearing this and said, "I really don't know."
After Gu Sang finished speaking, the two fell silent.
After a moment of silence, Gu Sang glanced at Li Rong, then scanned the stone chamber once more, and finally, her gaze settled on another direction within the chamber.
The other direction of the stone chamber leads to a cave.
"This cellar leads to a cave, right?" Gu Sang turned to look at Li Rong and asked.
“Yes! The entrance to this cellar probably leads directly to the entrance to that cave.” Li Rong nodded upon hearing this, looked at Gu Sang, and said.
Then, after pondering for a moment, Li Rong asked, "So, who dug that cave?"
“I think it was dug up by someone from our family. Back then, after my ancestor discovered this secret, he sent people to start digging,” Gu Sang explained.
Li Rong looked at Gu Sang and asked curiously, "Is this cave something belonging to your family? Why would your family dig this cave?"
“Yes!” Gu Sang nodded upon hearing this and said, “My family members are also very curious, so I asked my mother, but she didn’t know what was inside the cave either.”
"Oh, I see." Li Rong nodded upon hearing this, then asked, "I wonder what your family members were trying to do back then?"
“They’re all dead, there’s no way to verify anything now, and it’s impossible to ask them,” Gu Sang said calmly.
"Oh." Li Rong responded softly, then glanced at Gu Sang and said, "Let's hurry up and leave now!"
"Okay!" Gu Sang nodded upon hearing this and said, "Let's go quickly!"
After Gu Sang finished speaking, she took a step and walked towards a small path to the side.
"Wait for me!" Upon seeing this, Li Rong immediately chased after him.
Soon, Gu Sang and Li Rong arrived at the end of the path.
At the end of this path is a cave.
Gu Sang and Li Rong walked along the cave, heading deeper into it.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Gu Sang and Li Rong finally arrived at the depths of the cave.
The cave was very narrow, and Gu Sang and Li Rong walked side by side.
The two walked along, searching everywhere.
However, they never found any trace of the mechanism.
Upon seeing this, Gu Sang was immediately disappointed.
"Is there really no mechanism in this cave?" Gu Sang asked Li Rong with a puzzled look.
“I’m not quite sure either, let’s walk around a bit more!” Li Rong said, grabbing Gu Sang’s wrist and starting to walk to the side.
Seeing this, Gu Sang did not refuse Li Rong's kindness.
The two continued on their way.
"Huh, there seems to be a stone bridge ahead." Suddenly, a look of surprise appeared on Li Rong's face.
He pointed ahead and said.
Upon hearing this, Gu Sang immediately looked over.
Sure enough, at the location Li Rong pointed out, there was a circular stone bridge, with a thick rope connecting both ends of the bridge.
When Gu Sang saw the stone bridge, she was stunned.
"Could it be that the stone chamber we just stood in is the entrance to the cliff?" Gu Sang asked, looking at the stone bridge.
Upon hearing Gu Sang's words, Li Rong nodded slightly and said, "Let's go take a look quickly!"
"Mm!" Gu Sang nodded upon hearing this.
Then, Gu Sang followed Li Rong toward the entrance of the stone bridge.
Li Rong walked to the end of the stone bridge, stood at the entrance, looked at the entrance, frowned slightly, and said, "I always feel like we're trapped in a stone chamber."
“But there’s nothing on the walls of this stone chamber except for some murals!” Gu Sang frowned and asked in confusion when she heard Li Rong’s words.
