Siheyuan: The Temptation of the Mountains

Lin Ze was suddenly startled, as if he was struck by an invisible lightning.

He subconsciously quickened his pace and rushed forward like a gust of wind.

However, what horrified him was that no matter how hard he ran, he seemed to be trapped in an endless maze and could not find the exit.

The surrounding passages are winding and twisting, like a giant python twisting its body in the darkness.

At every turn, Lin Ze expected to see a ray of light, but what greeted him was only endless darkness and cold stone walls.

Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, his heartbeat quickened, and his breathing became more rapid.

Just when Lin Ze was about to fall into despair, suddenly, out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of a strange symbol on the wall that was flashing a faint light.

Those symbols are like stars in the night sky, looming and exuding a mysterious aura.

Lin Ze widened his eyes, stopped in a hurry, and observed the symbols attentively.

He stretched out his trembling hands and carefully touched the symbols, feeling their slight bumps and depressions.

These symbols have various shapes, some look like twisted vines, some look like strange animals, and some look like totems from ancient times.

Lin Ze racked his brains, trying to find some clues from these seemingly chaotic symbols.

As time passed, Lin Ze's brows furrowed more and more, and the thoughts in his mind were intertwined like a tangled mess.

But he did not give up and continued to think and explore.

Finally, hard work pays off. After a long and arduous effort, Lin Ze suddenly had an idea and found the key to solving this maze, as if he had suddenly realized something!

Lin Ze was so excited that he almost cried out. He followed the method he had learned and moved forward cautiously step by step.

With every step he took, his heart was in his throat, fearing that something might go wrong.

Fortunately, everything went very smoothly, and before long, he successfully walked out of this creepy maze.

When Lin Ze took the last step, the view in front of him suddenly became clear and an extremely spacious hall appeared in front of him.

Tall stone pillars stand around the hall, supporting the dome, giving people a sense of solemnity.

In the center of the hall, there is an old and yellowed ancient book. It lies there quietly, exuding a mysterious and alluring atmosphere.

Lin Ze took a deep breath, calmed down his excitement, and then walked towards the ancient book with firm steps. He walked to the ancient book, slowly squatted down, stretched out his hands and gently opened it.

The page was filled with dense text and images, recording an ancient legend about a magical treasure...

Lin Ze sat at the table, staring intently at the yellowed ancient book that exuded an old smell.

His eyes were focused and ardent, as if he wanted to see through the densely packed words to see the mysteries contained therein.

Every line of words and every symbol is like a key, leading him gradually into the legendary world that has been sealed away by time.

As he read deeper, Lin Ze became more and more excited, with excitement flashing in his eyes, as dazzling as the bright stars in the night sky.

He immersed himself in this ancient story, feeling the magic and thrills described in it.

It turns out that this treasure is not just gold and silver, it also hides a tremendous power that can change the world and unknown shocking secrets.

Just as Lin Ze was concentrating on exploring this mysterious treasure, suddenly, a gentle breeze blew by.

Although the wind was light, it seemed to have a spiritual power and gently turned the pages of the ancient book in front of me.

Lin Ze was stunned, and his eyes moved to the page that opened automatically. He saw a mysterious map suddenly appeared in front of him!

The map was drawn extremely carefully, with all kinds of strange symbols and lines marking the path to where the treasure was.

These routes crisscross and look extremely complicated, like a maze.

Seeing this, Lin Ze was suddenly filled with ecstasy.

He never thought that he would be so lucky to find this crucial clue!

He reached out his hand without hesitation, carefully took out the precious map from the ancient book, and quickly put it in his arms.

At this moment, he has made up his mind to use this map to embark on a treasure hunt full of challenges and adventures.

Although he knows that the road ahead may be full of thorns, difficulties and obstacles, Lin Ze is not afraid in order to personally uncover the mysterious veil behind the treasure.

He clenched his fists, with firm belief surging in his heart, and resolutely took the first brave step.

Just like that, with this persistence and courage, Lin Ze embarked on the unknown journey.

His figure gradually moved away and finally disappeared in the thick fog in the distance.

After Lin Ze stepped into the fog, he found himself in a mysterious world.

The scenery here is completely different from the outside world. Strange plants and rare animals can be seen everywhere.

He moved forward cautiously, following the instructions on the map to find the entrance to the treasure.

Along the way, Lin Ze went through many hardships and encountered many difficult problems and thrilling challenges.

But what is amazing is that he possesses an extraordinary intelligence and agility like a cheetah.

Every time he was in a desperate situation and there seemed to be no way out, he could always rely on his wit and courage to cleverly resolve the crisis and successfully escape from the brink of life and death time and time again.

After a long and arduous journey, Lin Ze finally arrived at his destination - a huge cave that looked like the mouth of a giant beast.

At the entrance of the cave, a mysterious light emanated faintly. The light seemed to have life, as if it was eagerly calling him to come in quickly.

Lin Ze stood at the entrance of the cave, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his heart which was beating violently due to nervousness.

Then, he took a step forward resolutely and walked into this cave full of unknowns.

As soon as he stepped into the cave, the scene before him left him dumbfounded.

I saw a different world inside the cave. Countless sparkling gems were inlaid on the cave walls like stars, emitting dazzling light; and the golden light all over the ground illuminated the entire space like daylight.

However, amidst all this glittering treasure, on a tall altar in the center of the cave, quietly lay a book that looked even older and much more worn out.

The cover of the book has been worn so much that the original pattern and text can no longer be seen, but the mysterious aura surrounding it makes it impossible to ignore its existence.
