That period of hunger came quickly and went quickly.

Linghu Lan knew she had to act quickly, because the next bout of hunger would make her dizzy and weak, leaving her with no energy to think.

She struggled to examine each gold brick again, but they were all exactly the same.

Here, besides the bare walls, she was all alone.

She sat down against the wall. Every brick was exactly the same in temperature, texture, size, and area, like something mass-produced. She figured that everyone else's were the same.

Time passed slowly, and soon my stomach rumbled again. This time, I got hungry very quickly. In the empty room, the sound of my stomach rumbling was amplified and sounded particularly loud.

Linghu Lan suddenly opened her eyes, took a hairpin off her head, and pricked her finger.

The ten fingers are connected to the heart, and pain strikes.

She held up her finger and shone it on each of the gold bricks on the north side. Sure enough, the northernmost gold brick emitted a faint glow.

"It's you!" Linghu Lan slammed her palm down on the gold brick.

The gold brick flashed briefly, but then remained still.

Linghu Lan's face darkened: "..."

Damn it!

Is it because they think there's not enough blood?

Linghu Lan gritted her teeth and cut her palm.

This time, the BRICS brilliance shone brightly, then slowly faded away.

A rumbling sound came from the wall as it slowly moved underground.

Linghu Lan was overjoyed.

wipe!

I never imagined that passing a test would require self-harm; it's truly perverted.

Fire overcomes metal, so there was naturally no fire in the secret chamber. She had lost all her magic power and couldn't find any fire either. Since every secret chamber was the same, the only difference was the people in the chambers. Although the faces of the people were different, according to the theory of the five elements, the five elements were all present in a person's body. The heart belongs to fire, but it is warm and rising. She couldn't bear to part with her heart's blood, so she gambled with her blood.

She won and got out of the secret room.

However, seeing my own palms, I couldn't feel happy at all.

She quickly slipped out of the secret room, and a narrow path appeared before her, surrounded by the same gold bricks. At the end of the path was a fork in the road, and a turntable hung on the wall. The turntable had two sections representing left and right, with a pointer in the middle.

Above the turntable are four words: "Leave it to fate."

Linghu Lan: "..."

Is there such a way to play?

She reached out and turned the pointer, which spun rapidly before stopping and pointing to the left. Linghu Lan thought for a moment, then ran down the path to the left. After running for a quarter of an hour, she finally saw the light of day appear at the end of the path.

Linghu Lan was both pleased and puzzled. Had she passed the test so quickly?

Reaching the end, she stopped. She had no choice but to stop. Before her eyes was a bustling market. Judging from the sky, it was only morning. Various stalls selling pancakes, morning tea, meat soup, vegetables, and fruits were open for business. The vendors were calling out to attract customers, and their enthusiastic smiles looked particularly lively.

Linghu Lan felt a chill in her heart. Having just escaped from a cold, dark metal cage, she suddenly found herself in the human world. This sudden change in circumstances was hard for her to accept.

My stomach started rumbling again, and the aroma of various foods made it rumble even louder.

Linghu Lan involuntarily walked out of the narrow path.

A vendor saw her, seemingly oblivious to the oddity of where she had come from. With a beaming smile, he greeted her, "Miss, come quickly! Hot mutton soup, sprinkled with garlic sprouts, is the perfect touch. Would you like a bowl?" As he spoke, he eagerly lifted the pot lid, as if he would serve soup at Linghu Lan's command.

Linghu Lan's internal organs were immediately overwhelmed by the aroma of the mutton soup.

"Give me a bowl!" she blurted out, as if possessed.
