Mendoza suggests leaving them alone as they are ignorant of the second manuscript. Sancho and Pedro stop for a few moments to rest when Pichu sees something unexpected. The children follow the parrot to a huge river. Mendoza suggests that they build a raft and follow the river which seems to be flowing in the direction they want to take. Our friends float peacefully downstream until they come to some rapids. The raft is broken up but the group manages to meet again on shore where they find the stone statues. Pedro and Sancho are soon heard. They have discovered golden dust. Mendoza and the children join them and they then notice a passage in a grotto which they decide to follow. They come upon a temple where they find a statue of a plumed serpent lying shattered on the ground. Tao thinks that only a great heat could have brought such a statue down. On a large door our friends then notice engravings representing the winged serpent. Tao suggests that Esteban use his medallion to capture the sun's rays. Sure enough, they eyes of the serpent begin to glint and the door collapses, taking with is the sections of the wall on either side. Inside the temple a golden statue holds a manuscript between its hands. Pichu fetches it and gives it to Tao who interprets it for them all: "The sky will begin to boil on that day. The dust will fall to earth and huge clouds will build up over the sea". Tao is most put out: he does not understand the message. Suddenly Esteban notices that some letters of the manuscript are more visible that others. The ingenious Tao decides that they have not all been written in the same ink. He soaks the manuscript in some water and a new message appears. "To the west of the land of the Mayas, look for the mountain of the Smoking Shield". Our friends set out once more, growing closer to the City of Gold. Written by Anonymous See less
