Tang Yue got goosebumps all over her body after just one look.
She never imagined that the story in the newspaper would make her feel cold all over and her hands and feet numb after reading it.
"Brother Yang," Tang Yue quickly drank a sip of water, letting her fluctuating heart slowly calm down. "Where did you find these? They can't be real, right?"
Even Su Yin, who was usually brave, looked a little more frightened after she finished reading the entire newspaper.
She folded the newspapers gently and put them back where they belonged, as if she had never picked them up.
"Of course these newspapers aren't real," Zhou Yiyang smiled. He could sense that the four of them breathed a sigh of relief after he said this. It seemed they were genuinely frightened. "I had these newspapers reproduced according to the style of the time. Don't they look quite realistic?"
"That's true," Tang Yue nodded. Since it was fake, she didn't need to be so frightened. So she imitated Su Yin, slowly folding the newspapers and then putting them back in their place. "I thought it was real!"
However, what she didn't expect was that Zhou Yiyang had only said half of what he had just said.
At this time, Zhou Yiyang slowly said:
"But you can't say they're completely fake. The newspapers were copied by me. But the stories written in them are not real. They all really happened back then."
After these words came out, the expressions of the four of them froze.
You look at me, I look at you, and we don’t know what to say to ease the atmosphere.
Zhou Yiyang said nonchalantly, "I'm scared again. I thought the story above was pretty commonplace, wasn't it?"
"Brother Yang," it was Wang Xingrui who spoke this time. "You don't know, when I read novels, I'm not afraid of those weird and magical settings because they seem so far away from my life. But stories that look like they happened are the scariest because you never know if they will suddenly happen to you one day."
"Indeed," Lin Xuan'er nodded affirmatively. She carefully stroked the newspaper, as if wanting to engrave every story in it into her heart. "But to be honest, I do have a voice inside me that's guiding me, making me really want to visit this mysterious city."
"Alright," Zhou Yiyang returned to his seat and yawned. "You all should get some sleep. The train probably won't arrive for a while!"
Just like that, an hour later, all of them finally arrived at the Sand City, a place known as the Pearl of the Desert, the City of Miracles, and the place loved by countless adventurers.
Of course, today's Shacheng has developed almost like a modern small town, with all the necessary facilities.
"It's so quiet here!" After walking out of the train station, they came to a spotlessly clean street.
Normally, the night market outside the train station should be extremely lively, but apart from a mobile barbecue stall, there was no one around.
"After all, it's not fully open to the public yet," Zhou Yiyang did his homework before coming here. He estimated that this place wouldn't be fully open until summer. By then, their group variety show would have aired, which would be a good opportunity to attract the first wave of traffic. "Once summer comes, this place will definitely be bustling."
Zhou Yiyang turned around and looked at their lack of interest. He couldn't help but say, "You guys, don't let those newspapers in the car affect you. Our main purpose for coming here is to film the group show, so smile and be happy. We have a lot of fun activities tomorrow!"
After hearing what Zhou Yiyang said, their expressions eased a little.
The recreational projects are indeed very attractive.
After glancing at Su Yin, Zhou Yiyang added, "And I heard the lamb here is especially delicious, so I've specially ordered a roasted whole lamb for tomorrow. If you're really too scared to go out, I'll have to go with the staff."
"No, no, no!" Su Yin hurriedly said, "How could we possibly be afraid of something like this? There are no ghosts in this world!"
Wang Xingrui chuckled. It must be said that Su Yin was quite persistent when it came to eating.
Instead of continuing to hang out, they took a car and returned to the hotel.
Lying on the bed, Tang Yue still couldn't control her brain. The stories she had just read in the newspaper rushed into her mind one after another.
The first story, no, it should be said to be news, tells the story of a foreign adventurer who came here to explore and lived in Shacheng, which was still a small county town at that time.
According to the adventurer's description, Sand City is a backward, closed, yet quite simple place.
He liked the local residents very much and even thought about settling here.
However, one day the adventurer did not listen to the advice of the local residents and went alone to the desert surrounding the entire sand city.
Since then, no one has seen the adventurer again.
Logically speaking, this is a common story in the desert and it would not scare Tang Yue.
However, the turn of the news caught Tang Yue off guard.
Ten years later, the adventurer returned.
He remembered everything except the ten years he disappeared.
Eventually he married a local resident and had a child.
Tang Yue took a deep breath and patted her head, trying to fall asleep quickly.
