Summary Having found the statue of the winged serpent, our friends continue into the forest. They hear a dreadful noise coming from the wind on the enormous cliffs that they find when they emerge. Suddenly a large rock falls from high up, just missing Mendoza, followed by many smaller ones. They escape from this avalanche and Zia then notices the entry to a grotto. Led by Esteban, our friends enter and continue till they come out into a ruined city where they find a statue. "This is certainly the city built by the winged serpent", says Tao. With no warning a huge stone falls from the top of the temple, just missing our friends. Soon they hear Zia shouting for help. She has been captured by the Doctor and Marinché who are threatening her with a knife. To save Zia's life, Mendoza has to surrender his weapons to the Doctor. The villain then takes the three children off to an identical temple to the first, where he forces Tao to read the Mays inscriptions on a statue of a jaguar. To save his friends, Tao has to comply: "When he prays into the sun, the gates of night open". The Doctor and Marinché announce that the children will remain their prisoners until such time as Tao can work out what this means. Esteban then takes his medallion and directs the captured rays of the sun into the face of the statue. The eyes of the jaguar begin to blink and the statue slowly moves, bringing into view a staircase. Followed by the villains, the children go down it. During this time, Mendoza, Pedro and Sancho are still in the first temple under the watchful eye of Teteola. They trick the Indian into telling them that the children are in a temple in the forest. The three men tie up Teteola and set off to find the children. The children, meanwhile, have found an earthen statue with manuscript in its hand. The doctor goes forward to take it but the ground gives way beneath him. Esteban pushes Marinché into the same pit and Tao orders Pichu to fetch the manuscript. Leaving the temple, the children meet Mendoza, Pedro and Sancho coming to find them. Tao reeds the manuscript: "the keys to the City of Gold are hidden in the three manuscripts to be found in the three different cities". They only have to find the third, which, according to the second, is in a ruined city not far from the temple where our friends are now, in a forest of stone statues. The group sets out to find the manuscript.
