“Be careful,” warned Tinny, as the boys walked down the gashed trail, away from the cave.
“Oh, come with us, Tinny,” urged Ned.
Mallison laughed, but set off after the rest of the party.
As they approached the place where Jerry had seen in the glare of lightning the landslide the night before, they all observed some blue rocks scattered about. It was as though some great shell had exploded, scattering the oddly colored stones.
“I don’t believe we’ll ever find a treasure chest here,” Ned was saying, but his words were lost in a rumble and roar that filled the air. Instinctively they all glanced up toward the top of the mountain.
Trees, bushes and a mass of earth seemed slowly moving.
“Look out!” yelled Jerry.
“There’s going to be another landslide!” cried Tinny.
“And it’s coming this way!” shouted Bob.
