The four of them shifted the object, shaped like a cupboard, that covered the door leading to the secret passage. Since there were four of them, they could do it quickly. After opening the door, Shannchyuan asked his friends to come in first. It just liked the story that Iren had heard before. This time, Shannchyuan also didn't forget to lock the door from the hallway.

They didn't carry kerosene lamps. Purposely, they left the lights in the dungeon. They walked with just flashlights for lighting. Because they already know the way, they can move quickly. They had arrived at a large hall shaped like a hexagon without realizing it.

Iren was amazed to see the room. He looked at the stone bench that Shannchyuan had told him about earlier. Lots of questions popped up in his mind. But he couldn't stay there for long. The other three friends left to enter the next hallway pronto.

As they almost reached the end of the passage, Shannchyuan, who was walking in the front, stopped. He shone his flashlight at the hallway wall. Iren saw a candle holder attached there. Shannchyuan grabbed the candleholder and pulled it until it was tilted at a ninety-degree angle. There was a slow rumbling sound, more like a buzzing sound. The left wall of the passage slid closer and then stuck to the right wall. Exactly the same as Shannchyuan's previous narrative.

"You stand guard here." Shannchyuan patted Shinnshiow on the shoulder.

Shinnshiow said nothing. He just nodded.

Shannchyuan then reached into his trouser pocket, pulling out a key. The key was the key to the basement door in their backyard. He gave it to Iren. "Don't forget, you'll lock the door before you go up to the surface."

Iren nodded vigorously.

The door had no handle. I don't think this will be easy.

Shannchyuan, Yihshyong, and Iren walked into the room, where there was a dressing table that was probably made of first-class wood. Same as before. Iren could not linger standing in front of the dressing table. The three of them walked across the room filled with the items. Then, they entered the next room through the dog door one by one. They stood huddled together in the next room, which turned out to be a closet.

"Please pay close attention to what I'm doing," Shannchyuan asked Iren to focus on such an important thing.

Iren observed what Shannchyuan was doing. He listened carefully to how to open the wooden wall that separated the closet from the cupboard in the next room.

"Don't forget, we can only open the dog door from here when this wooden wall is closed." Shannchyuan's voice was firm.

After the wooden wall opened completely, Shannchyuan and Yihshyong quickly stepped into the closet.

"You stay there," said Shannchyuan. "This cupboard is very narrow. It won't fit all three of us standing in it."

After Shannchyuan opened the cupboard door, he and Yihshyong immediately stepped out of the cupboard. Iren looked at them with mixed feelings. He was silent because he didn't know what to say.

Shannchyuan and Yihshyong turned their bodies. Iren came face to face with the two people. Both of their faces were so serious.

"After we leave this room, you close this closet door from the inside. After that, return to where Shinnshiow stands guard!" Shannchyuan turned around after he finished saying the last instructions. The man and Yihshyong moved swiftly. There were so many things strewn about in the room. The two had to be careful with their treads.

Iren nodded again. He couldn't resist the movement of his feet. Automatically, Iren left the closet and stepped into the cupboard. He shone his flashlight at his two friends, who were seen walking away from the cupboard. They walked carefully among the piles of things in the room. Not long after, Iren could hear the door being opened. Shannchyuan and Yihshyong then disappeared behind the door.

Iren couldn't hold back his mixed feelings. He stood there, dumbfounded. It was only about fifteen seconds later that he started to move. Iren closed the closet door, entered the closet, closed the closet wall, and entered the next room through the dog door. He hastened towards the alcove in the wall next to the wooden dresser without wasting much time. Once inside the hallway, he walked over to Shinnshiow.

"Is everything going well?" Shinnshiow's face looked bored. Watching beside the candle holder was not an interesting thing to do.

Iren nodded. "Come on, now let's go back."

Shinnshiow realigned the candle holder. After the hallway walls closed, they rapidly turned around and walked home. Even though they were trying to walk as fast as possible, Iren felt the passages were too long. Finally, they arrived at the end of the passage. Following Shannchyuan's instruction, Iren soon locked the door of the hallway. Exactly as he had thought. Locking the door was not as easy as locking the doors in their homes.
