“We don’t know anything about those things, we only know about the national highway. We should be able to get there by following the national highway. It’s the middle of the night, and we can’t really find our way. Let’s stay here for the night and leave tomorrow morning.” The uncle said, unlocking the door and pushing open the small door that was about the height of a person.
"No need, let's look again." Zhuang Zhao immediately refused, and pulled Yan Shi back.
