Moonlit Ridge, Longevity Village.
"Damn, what kind of place is this? There's not a single person here. Could it really be a ghost village?"
"I've already said that Moonlit Ridge is haunted and is filled with countless malevolent creatures. The people in the nearby villages are either all dead or have all moved away, turning the area into a ghost village. Isn't it normal that there's no one here?"
"What I really want to know is, are these ghost villages called ghost villages just because there are no people left, or is this village at the foot of the mountain also haunted?!"
...
Looking at the desolate surroundings, the village hidden in the darkness, eerie and bleak, the guests were all on the verge of losing their composure.
The production crew dropped all the guests off here and then turned around and left.
It really is fast; it runs faster than a rabbit, disappearing in a flash.
A group of guests were left behind, their eyes filled with horror as they stared at the deserted village before them.
Jin Shangyue glanced around, and Dao Dao immediately scanned the six nearby villages.
"My lord, there are six villages at the foot of Moonlit Ridge, all of which are deserted. It looks like they've been uninhabited for at least a hundred years. The houses and furnishings are all dilapidated and rotten."
However, there is one village, located at the very innermost part of the village, right at the entrance to Moonlit Ridge. Everything there is brand new and exceptionally clean, as if someone lives there.
I've scanned the village; there's no one there, but there are ghosts.
[It's still an A+ rank ghost possessing a domain.]
After listening, Jin Shangyue stepped directly into the village in front of her.
Some of the bolder guests had already entered the village and begun their sweeping and inspection.
The remaining guests, seeing that everyone else had gone in, had no choice but to bite the bullet and go in as well.
"Gagaga..."
A flock of crows took flight in the night, their cawing sounding particularly eerie and sinister under the moonlight.
"Holy crap! How come there are so many bones?!"
A gasp came from not far away.
The guests who heard this all went over to investigate.
Along the muddy paths in the village, there were many old and decaying corpses lying on both sides.
Ragged, rotten clothes, tattered and worn, wrapped around skeletons.
The bones were either broken or scattered.
In short, none of them were intact.
The viewers in the live stream all perked up and sat up straight.
"Wow! This is a strong start?"
"What was this Longevity Village for before? How come there are so many mutilated skeletons here?"
"I heard that the villages near Yuexia Ridge are very mysterious because the transportation is underdeveloped, and they are surrounded by mountains on all sides. The only entrance is also very hidden. No one who is not from the village can find the entrance. It was only when the people of these villages moved away a hundred years ago that the entrance was exposed."
"I've heard about it too. Later, many explorers went to investigate, but they never returned."
"I just want to know, everyone says that Yuexia Ridge is haunted and full of ominous creatures, so what about the villages at the foot of the mountain? Are they haunted too?"
"Aren't there any villagers still alive in these villages who can come out and explain? At least give us some basic information!"
"Don't ask anymore. I just heard from a friend that his great-aunt moved from one of the villages in Yuexialing. It seems she escaped from those villages and died one after another within a few years. She's been gone for a hundred years now, and all her descendants have died out long ago."
"How is your friend doing? Did he come to you in a dream from the underworld to tell you this?"
"...My friend is fine! It wasn't a dream, it was something he said on the phone! My friend isn't a villager, so of course he's okay!"
...
The guests cannot see the discussions in the live stream.
During the recording of the program, the guests are not allowed to bring communication devices.
At most, you can bring a walkie-talkie or something.
Everyone also wore a GPS tracking wristband provided by the production team.
To ensure that even in the end, if you die, the production team can bring your remains back.
Over here, many of the bolder guests went closer and began to examine the skeletal remains by the roadside.
Jin Shangyue patted Dao Dao, who was sitting on her shoulder: "Look at how they all died."
Dao Dao knew that the adults were slacking off again. It couldn't be easier for the adults to find out about such things.
But adults just love to let others do the work!
However, Dao Dao herself is also someone who likes to join in the fun, and even if Jin Shang Yue doesn't give the order, she will still investigate thoroughly.
Then the guests saw a tiny miniature robot, which was very agile, doing somersaults in the air, with its feet on a foam board.
It glided through the air, stepped on a foam board, and landed next to a skeleton.
Those dark eyes suddenly shot out a beam of light, giving the skeleton in front of them an X-ray-like examination.
Guests: !!!
Is this even possible?!
Viewers in the live stream: !!!
No, you can play it like this?
Is this mini robot a joke?
They even knew not to get themselves dirty, so they stepped on a foam board, and then they even did a live autopsy?
"Good heavens! I'm seriously exclaiming, 'Good heavens!' Whose mini robot is also a part-time autopsy performer?"
"As expected of the robot of His Majesty the Moon Emperor, its function is truly unique!"
"I just want to know, was the foam board that Little Cutie is standing on provided by His Majesty the Moon Emperor, or did it carry it with it itself?"
...
The live stream chat was buzzing with discussion, and the guests at the scene, after regaining their senses, also had strange expressions.
Someone couldn't help but ask Jin Shangyue a question.
"Your Majesty, what type of robot is this in your household? Is it a forensic doctor?"
Jin Shangyue smiled at the person: "An all-rounder."
The skinny man who asked the question: ...
"Sorry to bother you!"
I shouldn't have said anything!
The other guests, who had each brought plenty of good equipment, also fell silent.
You mean, since they were all equipped with gear, why didn't they think of getting an all-powerful robot to carry with them?
The production team only said that no one could bring anyone else; everyone had to participate and record alone.
But it didn't say you can't bring robots.
What a pity.
Recording has already started, so we can't go back and repack!
Although everyone remained silent, their eyes kept glancing towards the miniature robot.
They don't even bother to check anymore.
Watching as Dao Dao scanned one skeleton, then used a foam board as a glider to glide through the air to the next skeleton, followed by an X-ray dialysis scan.
This process was repeated until all the skeletal remains along the roadside had been examined.
The little mechanical man, stepping on the same small foam board, glided back to Jinshangyue's side.
"My lord, there are fifty-four skeletons in total, all of whom suffered inhumane torture before their deaths."
"They were either dismembered, missing limbs, or even skinned alive."
"Some had their heads chopped off, some had their legs gone, and some had their hands gone."
"They were all cut in half alive and tortured to death before they were even born."
