The lame man nodded and then stepped into the bamboo forest. Chen Yu and Kong Yan'er followed him through the bamboo forest and through a dog hole, where they came to a group of artificial hills. Looking around, the artificial hills were overlapping, and the large dead trees that used to grow in the hills had been cut down. Yet, the lame man was able to find the small caves smoothly in this intricate, maze-like group of artificial hills.
Kong Yan'er was greatly surprised, "I have been here several times and never noticed that there was a cave here. How did you know?"

That's Hongyu! Shenyu exclaimed in surprise, her eyes still fixed on Hongyu, before turning to the person beside her to ask, "Why did that woman in red come onto the stage? Where is Bao Qianqiu?"
