Andrius began to study the mural.
This time, he quickly immersed himself in the task.
However, the more he examined it, the more profound he found it.
At first, he only saw the lines resembling meridians and dots resembling acupuncture points
and thought it was a diagram of cultivation techniques.
Later, he noticed the little figures, paid attention to the central altar, and deduced the
existence of the underground river.
Now…
Andrius found more and more details.
For example, there were fish in the mural’s stream. If it were before, Andrius would not have paid thatmuch attention to the fish.
However, he knew better now. Everything in the mural conveyed something.
So, what did the fish represent?
“Hm?”
Just as he was puzzled, the aroma of fresh fish drifted over, sprinkled with cumin.
Andrius went down to the underground river in surprise.
He found his jacket neatly folded on the side while Kate was already dressed, holding a well- grilledyellow fish and eating it bite by bite. She sprinkled it with cumin and occasionally drizzled it with oil.
A large unknown fish exuded a tempting aroma on a rack by the side, making him drool at the
scent.

“Andrius, you’re here!” Kate smiled at him and pointed to the large fish. “This one should be just aboutready. I already marinated it, so you can sprinkle some cumin on it, and it’ll be good.”
There really was fish.
Andrius suddenly thought about the fish swimming in the stream in the mural. He was dazed for amoment before immediately rushing toward the mural.
“Huh?”
Kate was surprised by his reaction but quickly reacted. She moved both fish to a different spot toprevent them from overcooking, then followed him to the mural.
When she arrived, Andrius was staring at the stream in a daze. She asked, “Andrius, did you findsomething?”
“Fish!” Andrius pointed to the fish in the stream and said, “Did you notice? There are many fish in thisstream.”
Kate looked over.
That was true.
Rows of small fish were swimming inside. She would not have noticed if Andrius had not mentioned it.
Gradually, they found a pattern.
The fish followed the stream and extended outward. At the end, the tails of the fish had small circlesdrawn on them. Andrius was confused by the circles, not knowing what they meant.
He pointed at the circles and asked curiously, “Kate, can you figure out what these mean?” Katefollowed his finger and thought for a moment, then said, “Could it be that they’re reproducing? Thesefish might be laying eggs!”
“That should be it!” Andrius slapped his forehead in agreement.
Then, he noticed more details. The location where the fish lay the eggs was where the sun wasdepicted, representing daytime. The place the fish were playing was near the moon, indicatingnighttime.
“These fish…”
Andrius pondered and said, “During the day, they go along the stream to reproduce, and at night, theyswim back. What does that mean…”
Kate also thought about it but could not figure it out.
After a while, Andrius said, “I have a guess. Let’s go to the underground river and follow the directionthe fish swim. We should be able to find a way out.

Kate’s eyes lit up. “Exactly. Those fish are probably going outside along the stream, right?”
“Let’s go!”
The two of them arrived at the underground river after reaching an agreement.
After eating the two grilled fish, they were in much better condition and had regained some strength.
Then, they prepared to dive into the water to search for an exit.
“Andrius, your injuries haven’t fully healed. Can you handle prolonged diving?” Kate’s
concerns were not unfounded.novelbin
“No problem!” Andrius assessed himself and felt that he was fine. As long as the underground river wasnot too long, there should be no problem.
“Okay.” Kate nodded and jumped into the water first.
Andrius followed suit.
