Su Qiyuan stood at the foot of the stone platform and looked at us. After a moment, he looked away.
Then his eyes slowly swept across the surrounding cave walls.
I saw those strange and mysterious lights flickering and jumping on the wall of the cave. The interweaving of light and shadow reflected his eyes that were as deep as a deep pool.
Su Qiyuan frowned unconsciously, and a shallow groove formed between his eyebrows.
Then he took a step forward and slowly paced in the cave, stopping from time to time, his eyes still scanning the cave wall carefully.
At this time, everyone had come down from the stone platform one after another, and Senior Shangguan looked around.
He said, "Everyone is tired. Let's rest here for a while. Judging from the current situation, there is no danger here for the time being. Everyone is tired from the journey."
After hearing this, everyone nodded, found a place and began to rest for a while.
At this time, I looked at Su Qiyuan, then walked over and touched him with my hand.
Su Qiyuan turned his head to look at me, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and then he took my hand.
When I felt the warmth on my hand, I looked at everyone unconsciously, and saw that no one was looking at us.
So he followed Su Qiyuan and walked slowly in the cave, his eyes constantly moving around the surrounding environment.
At this moment, I pulled Su Qiyuan and pointed at the ground and said, "Look, why is there a fresh leaf with some twigs here? It seems like we have never been here before."
Su Qiyuan stopped and his eyes fell on the leaf.
I bent down to pick up the leaves. When everyone heard what I said, they all came over to watch.
Su Qiyuan took the leaf from my hand, examined it carefully, and then looked at the small branch. Then he said, "Ling'er is right. This is a fresh leaf. It must have been broken off not long ago."
Senior Shangguan was startled when he heard this. His expression became nervous and he murmured in a low voice, "Could it be that someone came in before we arrived?"
Everyone became alert instantly. Su Qiyuan immediately looked towards the stone wall where the leaves fell, his eyes full of vigilance.
He walked quickly to the stone wall, bent down and observed it carefully.
At this time, I squatted down and touched the stone wall with my hand, feeling there were cracks.
Su Qiyuan frowned, his eyes revealing a hint of doubt. He reached out and groped along the crack, trying to figure out how the crack was formed.
Everyone gathered around, nervously watching Su Qiyuan's every move.
"The crack looks very strange and doesn't seem to be naturally formed."
Su Qiyuan raised his head, looked at everyone, and spoke in a low voice.
Ye Ze frowned, bit his lip slightly, and said, "Could it be that someone did this on purpose?"
At this time, Senior Shangguan's brows were furrowed, his eyes filled with confusion and worry. His voice was slightly hoarse as he said, "I have been in seclusion in this cave before, and I have never heard Master mention any secret room in this cave."
Everyone nodded after hearing this, and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.
Su Qiyuan stood up and looked at the stone wall, as if thinking about what to do next.
At this moment, Baili Yanran wanted to get closer to look at the stone wall next to her, but she slipped and tripped over a stone.
The second brother was quick to reach out and support Baili Yanran.
Just when everyone's attention was focused on Baili Yanran, a strange sound suddenly came.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the crack suddenly moved. Then, the stone with the irregular crack actually dented a little.
When everyone heard the sound, they all looked over there and saw three stones protruding from the concave part.
Su Qiyuan immediately stepped forward, his eyes revealing alertness. He carefully observed the three stones, trying to find some clues from them.
Senior Shangguan also came forward, frowning, staring at the three stones, as if thinking about something.
My second brother and everyone else gathered around, looking at the three stones nervously, wondering what was going on.
"This stone looks very strange. It should be some kind of mechanism?" Su Qiyuan said in a low voice.
Senior Shangguan nodded and said solemnly, "It's possible. We must be cautious and find out what's going on."
Everyone nodded, their eyes revealing nervousness. No one knew what would happen next, so they could only wait quietly for Su Qiyuan's next move.
Su Qiyuan walked forward, reached out and gently touched the three stones, feeling their texture and shape.
Try to find the pattern and see if you can trigger any mechanism.
Just as Su Qiyuan was carefully studying the three stones, there was suddenly a slight vibration. Everyone was startled and didn't know what was happening.
Su Qiyuan immediately took a step back and looked at the three stones vigilantly.
I saw that the three stones began to move slowly, making a low sound.
Everyone looked at the three stones nervously, and the stones stopped for a moment.
For a moment, the entire cave fell into silence, with only the tense and rapid breathing of the crowd rising and falling slightly in the air.
I looked at the three stones, quickly took out my cell phone and turned on the light.
I approached the three stones, bent down, and brought the light of my mobile phone close to them, moving it back and forth across the surface of the stones, trying to find some clues from the rough texture and dull color.
Perhaps because I was too focused, my hand unconsciously touched one of the stones.
At that moment, the stone moved again. His body instinctively took a step back, but his eyes were still fixed on the stone.
After a while, the stone slowly stopped and returned to its previous silence.
My brain started working rapidly, and the plots of the novels I had read on Blue Planet flashed before my eyes like slides.
I thought to myself that this might be a mechanism in a secret room. After all, according to the routine in novels, this kind of thing often hides unknown secret passages or secret rooms.
Thinking of this, he looked over again, no longer touching the stones rashly, but observing every detail of them more carefully.
Suddenly, I felt that the stone should have been pressed down, and a square shape appeared underneath. Then my eyes were attracted by one of the stones.
Under the light of the mobile phone, the surface of this stone seems to be smoother than the other two, and it faintly emits a unique luster.
My heart moved, and I quickly called out to everyone: "Everyone, come over here and take a look at this stone. Is it different from the other two?"
When everyone heard this, they gathered around and looked at the three stones carefully.
After a moment of silence, Ye Zezhong pointed at one of the stones and shouted, "This stone looks brighter, obviously much brighter than the one next to it!"
Others echoed the sentiment, their eyes all focused on the stone.
I nodded slightly and said, "Yes, this stone must have been touched often, so it is brighter than the other two."
