The group stepped back and retreated to the stone room just now.
Bai Youwei said, "Retreat."
Asha Lina said: "If you go back, it's time to go back to the mural."
Bai Youwei nodded, "Go back."
They continued the same way back, but this time, they saw no frescoes, no iron gates, no 12 locks, no pillars, nothing but an empty stone room.
Everyone realized that something was wrong, and it was clear that they were going back the same way, but they were not where they started from.
Is the direction confused? Or is there another mystery inside the stone chamber
Du Lai held the flashlight, looked carefully along each stone brick, tapped lightly, and tried to see if there was any mechanism.
Shen Mo leaned his head on the stone wall, frowned and listened for a while, then gestured to Du Lai to stop: "There seems to be something nearby."
Everyone fell silent, stuck to the wall, and listened intently.
It was like the breathing sound of some kind of beast... Huchi, Huchi, very thick, very heavy, accompanied by heavy footsteps, one after another, along the icy stone wall...
For a time, a giant monster with a tauren body appeared in everyone's mind.
"There was no sound just now." Du looked at Bai Youwei, "Could it be... this monster is looking for us?"
Everyone's nerves suddenly tense.
When they first entered the labyrinth, they stayed in the room with the murals for a long time. They also carefully listened to the movement of the four doors. There was no sound. Now that there is a sound, does it mean that the monster is approaching them
Bai Youwei thought for a while, "... In myths and legends, the Minotaur will eat the human beings as a tribute. Maybe while we are looking for the key, the Minotaur is also looking for us. We have to avoid it as much as possible."
She looked again at the door where she had retreated, "However, the more important thing now is to determine the direction."
If they can't determine the direction, they will probably keep spinning around here.
Shen Mo took out the compass and looked at it—if the compass is ok, the door they exited just now, that is, the direction pointed by the third mural, is due east.
"Do you want to change direction?" Du Lai asked.
The two stone chambers on the east side are exactly the same, and it is very likely that they will not be able to get through.
Bai Youwei looked at Shen Mo and asked, "Try to see if you can engrave and mark on the wall."
Shen Mo nodded, took off the paper doll on his wrist, turned it into a dagger, found a place on the wall, and carved a "Z".
Afterwards, they opened the door to the south, and the stone chamber was still empty.
Bai Youwei took out two used batteries from the bag, placed them upright in the middle of the stone room, and then asked everyone to return to the room just now.
The gasping sound became more and more obvious, as if it had come very close, and it could be heard clearly without pressing the ear against the wall.
Panting with a low growl, whee... whee...
Impatient and heavy footsteps, bang bang... bang bang...
Chen Hui couldn't help shrinking to Leonid's side, staring at the north door with a small face, and muttered: "It seems... it's getting closer..."
Bai Youwei asked Shen Mo, "Is the mark still there?"
Shen Mo shook his head with a solemn expression, "The mark is gone."
Du Lai carefully observed the texture of each door, "These stone chambers are all exactly the same, no difference can be seen, it's just... like replicas."
Asha Lina held a knife, listened to the movement at the north gate for a while, and asked Bai Youwei: "That guy is very close to us, do you want to leave here first?"
"Let's go to the South Gate." Bai Youwei said.
The six people walked into the south door, and the stone room was still outside the door. Bai Youwei came to the middle of the stone room first, and found that the two batteries that had just been placed here, like Shen Mo's mark, were gone. .
Bai Youwei frowned, "It's a little troublesome..."
