Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1219: It Seems Fate Is Needed to Open This Treasure

What they didn’t know was that as soon as they left Beijing, soone received the news.

What those people never would’ve imagined was that they would take a military plane to Sichuan.

So even though they had already been in Sichuan for three days, those people still hadn’t found them.

Xinyan knew they were already not far from the entrance, but the terrain was getting more and more complicated. For safety’s sake, they naturally didn’t dare take any more risks.

The next day, Mr. Gu woke up very early. He hadn’t expected to sleep so soundly out in the wild.

He had no idea that to let him get a good night’s sleep, after he lay down, Xinyan had lit so calming incense she had prepared beforehand in her space.

The two of them ate a bit of simple food, then continued searching in the direction the map indicated. "Grandpa, according to the marks on the map, the entrance should be sowhere around here."

Mr. Gu’s mood was very complicated at this mont. For the sake of these worldly things, not only had his eldest son been killed, even his younger son’s life or death was unknown. Even his daughter had been hard to the point of being separated from her husband, causing his granddaughter to suffer so much since she was little.

He sighed and said, "Yanyan, use the machete to clear these vines off the rock face."

Xinyan naturally understood her grandfather’s intention. She took the machete out of her backpack and started hacking wildly around the area marked on the map.

At first, once those vines were chopped down, all that was revealed was ordinary cliff wall. After a careful inspection, she still didn’t find anything different.

Xinyan’s arms were almost numb from the jarring impact, and she still hadn’t found the entrance.

Mr. Gu looked at his granddaughter Xinyan. "Yanyan, take a break, drink so water first."

Just as Xinyan was about to respond, she noticed that the color of the cliff wall over on this side had changed. Her previously dejected mood instantly ca back to full health. "Grandpa, the color of this cliff wall is different."

She then sped up the swing of her machete, and after chopping forward for another three ters or so, a natural rock cave about two ters wide was actually revealed.

Mr. Gu didn’t let Xinyan go in right away. Instead, he used what was at hand to make two simple torches, then shielded Xinyan behind him and carefully walked inside.

After walking in about a hundred ters, they found a stone door up ahead.

The two of them searched around there for quite a while but couldn’t find the chanism to open the stone door. Xinyan felt they must have missed sothing.

They searched carefully all over again and still didn’t find anything unusual. Just then, Mr. Gu said, "Yanyan, could it have sothing to do with these two stone lions in front of the door?"

Xinyan squatted down and studied the two little stone lions again. She twisted them left and right, but they didn’t budge in the slightest. Just when she was at her wits’ end, because she’d been squatting for too long, she lost her balance and fell back onto the ground.

Because both her hands were still holding the stone lion, she exerted a bit of force, and the stone lion was actually lifted up by Xinyan.

Before she could even react to what was happening, the stone door began to slowly rise upward.

Xinyan stared in disbelief. "Grandpa, the chanism for this stone door really is the little stone lions in front of it."

Their faces, one old and one young, were both filled with astonishnt.

Earlier the two of them had groped around on these little stone lions for a long ti, and twisted them in every direction—left, right, front, and back—with no response at all. They never expected that the trick would be to lift them up.

Xinyan ignored the pins and needles in her legs, crawled on her knees over to the stone lion on the other side, and tried lifting it straight up, but couldn’t move it at all. She turned to look at the one she had been holding before and stared at it for a while. Thinking of sothing, she tried again, and they watched as the stone door slowly descended once more.

Xinyan looked at the stone lion in her hand. "Grandpa, it looks simple, but it’s actually not simple at all."

It turned out you couldn’t lift the stone lion just by pulling up on it. Only by sticking your fingers into the stone lion’s mouth and pressing the hidden catch inside could the door be opened.

But with that chanism, if a person’s hand was too big or too small, they simply wouldn’t be able to touch that spot. It looked like opening this treasure really depended on fate.

They opened the stone door again and walked in holding their torches. It wasn’t that they hadn’t brought flashlights, but that torches had a special use.

Once inside, they discovered there were also two little stone lions squatting guard within. To be on the safe side, Xinyan first let the stone door drop back down.

Grandfather and granddaughter walked forward with their torches held high, and this ti they could clearly feel wind blowing through the cave. It seed there were other passageways.
