After deciding to go on the next expedition, Xiao Xiao and her team members began to prepare for the exploration of the new site. Based on the clues they found in previous research, this site may hide the core secrets of ancient civilization. It is located in a remote mountainous area, which is shrouded in thick fog all year round, with a harsh environment and changeable climate, making it a very challenging expedition site.

 Preparation before departure

In order to ensure the safety of this expedition, Xiao Xiao specially invited an expert with rich expedition experience to join the team. This expert is Liu Chuan, a senior explorer. He has rich experience in dealing with mountainous terrain and harsh climate, and has led the team to successfully complete difficult expedition tasks many times.

"The mountainous area where the site is located is complex and changeable," Liu Chuan said when explaining to the team members, "We must be fully prepared, not only to cope with the test of the natural environment, but also to be careful of unknown dangers that may be encountered."

In order to cope with the upcoming challenges, the team conducted rigorous physical training and prepared sufficient equipment, including professional mountaineering equipment, first aid supplies, communication tools, and sufficient food and water. Each member was assigned a task in detail to ensure that the team could work together at critical moments.

 Strange legend

Before setting off, Xiao Xiao heard a mysterious legend about this site from the local residents. It is said that this mountain area was once an important stronghold of ancient civilization, but later for some unknown reason, it became a forbidden area. Many explorers have tried to enter this mountain area to find the site, but most of them got lost in the thick fog and never came back.

"This sounds like some kind of defense mechanism left over from an ancient civilization," Ye Qilin speculated, "Perhaps this site has been set up with some kind of ban to prevent outsiders from entering."

Although these legends are chilling, Xiao Xiao and her team members did not back down. They knew that this expedition would be a key step in revealing the secrets of ancient civilizations, and no difficulties could stop them.

 Entering the mountains

One morning, the team set out. They took a helicopter to the entrance of the mountain, and Liu Chuan led the team to gradually go deeper into this foggy area. As the altitude increased, the fog became thicker and thicker, visibility gradually decreased, and the surrounding environment became more and more unfamiliar and dangerous.

"We must stay vigilant at all times. The weather here is changeable and the terrain is complex. It is easy to get lost," Liu Chuan reminded everyone.

Under the leadership of Liu Chuan, the team overcame various difficulties and moved forward cautiously. Xiaoxiao held her notebook tightly and silently wrote down every detail in her heart. She knew that these details might be crucial in the next exploration.

 Mysterious ruins entrance

After several days of arduous trekking, the team finally reached the entrance of the site. This is a hidden cave, the entrance of which is covered by dense vegetation and cannot be found without careful searching. There are some ancient runes engraved on the rock wall above the entrance, which seem to warn visitors of the dangers of this area.

“These runes are similar to those we found in previous documents, which means we have found the right place,” Alicia said excitedly as she carefully observed the runes on the rock wall.

Under the guidance of Liu Chuan, the team carefully cleared the vegetation near the cave entrance to ensure there were no potential dangers. Then, they lit torches and entered the mysterious cave one by one. The air inside the cave was cold and damp, and the walls were covered with intricate patterns and carvings, as if telling the rise and fall of ancient civilizations.

 Deep into the maze

After entering the cave, the team found that the passage inside the cave was as complicated as a maze, and every step required caution. They followed the patterns on the wall and slowly went deeper into the cave. As they moved forward, the patterns on the wall became more and more complicated, as if recording some mysterious rituals of ancient civilizations.

“These patterns may be related to the religion or sacrificial activities of ancient civilizations,” Alicia whispered, “We must record every detail.”

Suddenly, Qin Wentian, who was walking in front, discovered something unusual - a huge circular symbol was engraved on the wall in front of him, and the air around him seemed to become unusually heavy. This symbol was very similar to some ancient ritual totem they had seen in the literature before.

"This may be the entrance to the core area of ​​the ruins," Qin Wentian guessed, "but we must find a way to open it."

 Activate the Ancient Mechanism

After careful research, the team discovered that the circular symbol was actually the core of an ancient mechanism. They gradually solved the puzzle of the mechanism based on the runes on the wall. As the last mechanism stone slab moved, the wall slowly cracked, revealing a passage leading deep into the ruins.

"We succeeded!" Ye Qilin said excitedly, "This passage may lead to the core area of ​​the ruins."

Although the team members were excited, Xiaoxiao knew that the next journey might be even more dangerous. She reminded everyone to stay calm and keep moving forward.

 Unknown Ahead

The team continued along the newly opened passage, their hearts full of anticipation and tension. They didn't know what was waiting for them ahead, but everyone understood that they were approaching the deepest secrets of ancient civilization.

As they walked forward, the temperature around them gradually dropped, and the air was filled with an ancient atmosphere. Strange lights began to appear on the walls on both sides of the passage, as if guiding them forward.

"This light may be the remnant of some ancient technology," Qin Wentian speculated, "They may have been waiting for us."

Deep in this mysterious cave, the team gradually approaches the truth. However, they also understand that danger may be everywhere. Every step ahead is full of unknowns, but their spirit of exploration and persistence in ancient civilization will lead them to move forward until all the secrets of this mysterious site are uncovered.
