Chapter 523 Circular Mechanism
As she spoke, she deliberately straightened her body, showing off her curves, with a hint of charm in her eyes, trying to ease the tense atmosphere in this way.
Chen Yile, however, acted as if he hadn't noticed. He simply stood up and said in a cold tone, "Not interested."
After saying that, he turned and walked to Ah Xiang, squatted down to check on her condition. Seeing that she was still unconscious, he reached out and pinched her philtrum, applying gentle force.
After a while, Ah Xiang moaned and slowly opened her eyes.
Her eyes were still a little confused as she looked at the unfamiliar and messy environment around her. She was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses and asked weakly, "What...what's going on? I remember that coffin..."
Chen Yile briefly explained what had just happened to her, then said seriously, "Let's not worry about that for now. We have to find a way out quickly. If we delay any longer, we'll all die here."
Ah Xiang's face turned pale when she heard this. She quickly stood up, her body still a little unsteady. She held onto the stone wall and said, "Then... let's look for it quickly."
So the three of them began to look for an exit in the cave again.
They did not miss any corner, groping on the stone wall with their fingers, and carefully observing every suspicious place with their eyes, but after searching around, they still found nothing.
The cave was still extremely hot and the air was becoming increasingly thinner. Every breath felt extremely difficult. Their faces had turned a little purple due to lack of oxygen. Beads of sweat kept rolling down their foreheads. Their clothes had long been soaked with sweat and stuck tightly to their bodies, making them extremely uncomfortable.
Although the audience in the live broadcast room could not see the screen, they were still waiting anxiously in front of their mobile phones, constantly leaving messages in the comment area, praying that Chen Yile and the others would be safe and find a way out.
"Brother Chen and the others must be safe. It's been half a day and I don't know what the situation is."
"I hope they can be lucky and escape danger quickly. It's so heartbreaking."
Chen Yile looked at the confusing environment around him and became more and more anxious, but he knew that there was no point in being anxious now and he had to calm down.
He once again turned his gaze to the middle of the cave. Previously, his attention was attracted by the surrounding stone walls and the gold, silver and jewelry, so he had not taken a close look at this place.
I saw that most of the floor in the middle of the cave was paved with marble. They were all square in shape and arranged neatly, except for a round piece in the middle. The round marble looked out of tune with the surrounding squares, as if it had some special meaning.
Chen Yile's heart moved, and he thought that maybe this was the key to getting out.
He took a deep breath, and even though the thin air made it difficult for him to breathe, he walked towards the round marble.
When he got up to it, he hesitated for a moment, then stepped on it carefully, but the marble did not move at all and did not respond at all.
Chen Yile frowned, feeling a little disappointed. Could he have been wrong?
At this time, Qingting and Ah Xiang also came over. Qingting looked at the round marble and asked curiously, "Brother Chen, do you think this is the exit mechanism?"
Chen Yile shook his head and said, "I'm not sure either. I just stepped on it and there was no movement."
When the dragonfly heard this, he stepped on it without thinking much.
At the moment when both of her feet landed on the round marble, there was a series of "cracking" sounds, and the round marble slowly sank. Then, a stone door opened with a "boom" on the stone wall in front of her, and a cool air blew in from the stone door, which instantly lifted their spirits.
"Great, there's an exit!" Dragonfly shouted excitedly, her face full of joy at surviving the disaster. Her eyes, which had been dimmed by fear and fatigue, now glowed again, and she couldn't wait to walk towards the stone gate.
Chen Yile was not so optimistic. He looked at the stone door warily, feeling vaguely uneasy.
There are dangers everywhere in this tomb. Who knows what is hidden behind this stone door?
But there is no other choice now. I can't just stay here and wait to die.
He turned to look at Ah Xiang, who also had a hint of hesitation on her face, but still nodded, indicating that she was willing to follow him in.
Chen Yile gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go. Everyone, be careful and don't be reckless anymore."
As he spoke, he took the lead and walked towards the stone gate, holding the Tianshi Sword tightly in his hand, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.
Qingting and A Xiang followed behind him, holding hands and snuggling up to each other. Their eyes showed both fear of the unknown and a hint of expectation of escaping from here.
After entering the stone gate, there is a long passage inside. The walls of the passage are inlaid with some night pearls that emit faint light, making the passage a little dim, but you can barely see the surrounding situation.
The passage was filled with a faint stench of decay, as if something had been rotting here for a long time. The smell penetrated into the nose, making people want to cover their mouths and noses.
The walls were wet, and from time to time drops of water slid down the stone walls. The dripping sound echoed in this silent passage, adding a bit of eerie atmosphere.
Chen Yile and the others walked cautiously along the passage. They felt their heartbeats quicken with every step, as if something terrible would pop up in the next second.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew by, carrying with it a faint sound of crying. The sound was so miserable, as if someone was telling endless sorrow, which made people's scalps numb.
Qingting was so frightened that his face turned pale. He grabbed Chen Yile's arm tightly and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Chen, what...what is this sound? It's so scary!"
Chen Yile's expression also turned serious. He stopped, pricked up his ears and listened carefully, saying, "I don't know. Everyone, be careful. There might be some evil spirit again."
Ah Xiang hid behind the two men, poked her head out, looked around nervously, and said, "How about... let's go back, this place is too scary."
Chen Yile shook his head and said firmly, "We've come this far, there's no turning back. We can only keep going forward. Maybe the exit is not far ahead."
As he spoke, he continued to move forward, but before he had gone far, he saw some strange footprints on the ground in front of him.
The footprints looked like human footprints, but they were much larger than normal footprints. There was also a faint black mist around the footprints, exuding a strange aura.
Although the audience in the live broadcast room could not see the situation on the scene, they were still imagining what they were experiencing at the moment, and the messages in the comment area continued to increase.
