To realize that the two of them were the weakest existences among them.
If they encountered any danger midway, they would be the ones dragging the others down.
Since Gun Gun, who was so powerful, could be captured by Jiang Fan, what more of them?
At this moment, they harbored a trace of doubt towards Jiang Fan.
They worried that Jiang Fan would abandon them if they encountered any danger.
However, there was nothing they could do now; they could only continue to follow Jiang Fan.
Along the way, the group did not engage in any arguments, but simply continued walking through the dark, bottomless corridor.
Moreover, they kept their hands on the walls. Although their pace was slow, at least no one got lost.
Soon, after reaching the end, they discovered a door before them.
This meant that they were not walking down a dead end, but a path of survival, and the entrance was not blocked by any rocks.
Zhou Niannian seemed to have forgotten her fear from earlier. Looking at the door before them, she curiously leaned closer and touched it lightly with her hand.
"How strange. So many rocks were rolling down here just now, but they've all disappeared. What's going on?"
Jiang Fan muttered to himself amidst the group.
He also kept touching the door with his hands.
Jiang Fan naturally pondered why the rocks had not rolled down here, but he soon understood the reason.
By all logic, the entrances to these diverging paths should have been the same.
Therefore, the probability of these rocks rolling into each of these openings should have been the same.
The only difference was the different slopes of these openings.
Thus, the rocks would naturally roll towards the direction with a greater slope.
However, if the rocks were influenced by some external force during their rolling, then they might not necessarily roll into any specific opening.
After hearing Jiang Fan's explanation, Zhou Niannian finally understood why there were no rocks in this particular opening.
Jiang Fan, not having much time to observe his surroundings, focused his attention on the door.
At the same time, he discovered two lines of text on the door.
However, these two lines of text did not provide him with any useful information because he could not decipher the characters at all.
As before, these characters were likely not human languages.
Jiang Fan gave Dai Xiaomei a look without hesitation, and Dai Xiaomei immediately understood what he meant, looking in the direction of Jiang Fan's finger.
Indeed, these were two lines of dinosaur script, and Dai Xiaomei quickly leaned in.
"Yi wu yi wu yi wu."
"Hu li hu li la la."
Clearly, Dai Xiaomei was muttering something to herself, but her companions nearby had no idea what she was saying, only knowing that she seemed to understand the two lines of text.
Moreover, these characters were etched with grooves, and had been smoothed somewhat by sand and gravel.
This made the characters less distinct. Dai Xiaomei had to bring her eyes very close to see them clearly as she read.
Then, Dai Xiaomei slowly nodded, seemingly understanding its meaning.
"How is it? Did you see it clearly, Dai Xiaomei?"
Seeing that Dai Xiaomei had stopped observing, Jiang Fan stepped forward and asked. Dai Xiaomei also nodded faintly.
"Yi yi wu wu ya." (Its meaning is that as long as we solve the puzzle on it, we can open and enter this door.)
"Li li xi xi la la." (As long as we restore the pattern next to it.)
The group listened to Dai Xiaomei's words with confusion, not knowing what she was saying. They gestured for her to draw on the ground.
Dai Xiaomei then remembered that she was currently speaking in dinosaur language.
Then, Dai Xiaomei slowly squatted down.
She drew several circles with her finger, and also drew a few arrows.
However, the patterns within these circles were somewhat baffling.
Just as everyone was puzzled, Dai Xiaomei helplessly turned her head, seemingly thinking of a more direct method.
Dai Xiaomei stood up, reached her hand onto the door, and easily moved a small piece of her index finger.
When she made this move, everyone immediately understood what it meant, and the door emitted a faint clicking sound.
*Click, click~*
It was as if a mechanism inside the door had been triggered.
It was clear that Dai Xiaomei had figured out how to open the door.
She had now completed the puzzle and was about to open the door.
At this moment, Jiang Fan suddenly heard movement behind him again.
Clearly, this movement came from those large rocks from earlier.
"What's going on? Could it be that those rocks are rolling down again? How could this be? Didn't they say there would be no rocks here?"
Hearing this, Jiang Fan frowned and looked at Zhou Niannian.
"If the rocks are affected by external forces, they are very likely to change direction."
"Perhaps this is the mechanism in this corridor. If we cannot open this door, we will be crushed to death by these large rocks."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Niannian became flustered again, and involuntarily retreated.
Although Dai Xiaomei heard the door creaking, she saw that the door still did not react and was as frightened as Zhou Niannian, clinging tightly to her.
The approaching rocks were closing in on everyone.
At this time, Jiang Fan had no other options.
He surveyed the surroundings and found no crevices like before for them to hide in.
Now, they could only accept their fate and wait for the rock to smash down upon them.
Like a harbinger of death, the rock rolled down the corridor with incredible speed.
Everything in its path was crushed, and the candles flickered as if about to be extinguished by the impact of the rock.
The group's backs were pressed firmly against the door, but the rock showed no signs of stopping and was getting closer.
"What's wrong? Why hasn't the door opened yet?"
"Did Dai Xiaomei get it wrong?"
Seeing Jiang Fan's words, Dai Xiaomei did not respond but closed her eyes in fear.
Looking at her, Jiang Fan knew that she was terrified.
However, he was helpless, as only Dai Xiaomei could understand these writings.
"Are we going to die here like this? It shouldn't be."
As the rock drew only a stone's throw away, Jiang Fan could not help but close his eyes.
