This is a desolate place, like an old site that has been uninhabited for a long time, but you can still vaguely see its past prosperity, like a market.

Yan Qingqiu had already gotten out of the car. He saw that the place was covered with mist and the atmosphere was becoming increasingly terrifying and gloomy. He always felt that someone was staring at him, which made him feel creepy. He was a little anxious, fearing that An Yan would not be able to find this place.

Finally, there was light ahead, which allowed him to take two steps forward.

As expected, it was Li Rongsen’s car that came, and Yan Qingqiu’s mood suddenly brightened.

Li Rongsen and An Yan got out of the car.

An Yan came over and asked Yan Qingqiu: "Where are they?"

"If you go inside, the car can't drive in because the street is not wide." Yan Qingqiu answered him.

"Ordinary people are not difficult to deal with. Do you really think you can't do it?" An Yan asked.

"They are not ordinary people, nor do they look like ordinary people. They walk around like they are moving around." Yan Qingqiu explained to her, and then said, "I have to protect myself, otherwise who will report the news to you?"

"Let's go, let's go inside and talk," An Yan said as she walked inside.

Li Rongsen followed closely and said, "What kind of place is this? It doesn't look popular at all."

"This is a puzzle. It was originally designed to prevent outsiders from entering, because the person who set up this puzzle has been gone for a long time and no energy has been added. Therefore, the puzzle is considered to be broken, but ordinary people cannot find this place or come in, which will cause them extreme fear." Yan Qingqiu explained to them.

An Yan walked in front and she found that this place was weird. There were low houses on both sides, which were dilapidated and either lacked a wall or a roof, and were overgrown with weeds everywhere.

Suddenly, something rushed over quickly. Li Rongsen instinctively raised his arm to block it. He heard a "meow" and a cat fell to the ground.

Yan Qingqiu said: "That person's intentions are sinister."

"What do you mean?" An Yan asked him.

"I remember that this kind of puzzle is designed to hide another puzzle and is specifically designed to store things. If an outsider enters, he will definitely die because the inside will cause people to have hallucinations and eventually die from the hallucinations." Yan Qingqiu said seriously.

When An Yan heard this, she took out a medicine bottle from her bag and gave Li Rongsen and Yan Qingqiu a pill each, saying, "Take it, it will improve your concentration and won't be confused by some trivial things."

"You can actually make this kind of medicine?" Yan Qingqiu found it unbelievable and he swallowed the medicine.

An Yan said: "I learned it from the academy, and I also find it magical." While doing so, she ate one herself.

What Li Rongsen fears most is hallucination. Last time, he almost didn’t make it out, so he can’t fall behind this time.

The three of them walked to the end and found it was a dead end with no way forward, but they also did not see Zhou Qianqian.

Li Rongsen suggested: "Otherwise, let's look for it separately."

"No, if we are scattered, we may not be able to gather together again. We cannot separate." Yan Qingqiu said.

"Just say you're afraid of death." An Yan joked with him to ease the tense and gloomy atmosphere.

Yan Qingqiu snorted lightly, and then said righteously, "Stop it, I'm here to protect you two, don't be ungrateful."

Li Rongsen laughed and said, "Anyway, whatever you say is reasonable."

"This store sells lanterns. Let's go in and take a look." Yan Qingqiu pointed the light of his mobile phone at a store.

An Yan looked around and found footprints on the ground, indicating that someone had been there. There were also three lanterns missing from the counter. The side lanterns were clean on one side, indicating that someone had picked up the lanterns, otherwise they would have been covered with dust.

Li Rongsen asked, "Is there something special about this lantern?"

An Yan looked around and found that in addition to lanterns, there were also candles in the room, almost all of which were white.

Yan Qingqiu said: "There should be some tricks. How about we light one and try?" Then he picked up a lantern and lit it.

Yellow lights began to dim around, but they looked even more eerie when shone on people's faces.

"There are three of them, and they brought three lanterns." An Yan was thinking about the ins and outs of this.

"I have heard a rumor that lanterns can lead the way, and that even if you reach the end of the road, lanterns can lead you to a new path, but I don't know whether it's true or not," said Li Rongsen.

"That's a different lantern. Look how ordinary this one is."

"Not ordinary, the paper of this lantern is not ordinary paper." An Yan said.

"What! Could it be a human skin lantern?" Yan Qingqiu was so scared that he wanted to drop the lantern in his hand.

Fortunately, Li Rongsen steadied his wrist and said, "I didn't expect you to be so timid."

"It's not human skin, it's something called shock paper." An Yan signaled him not to be afraid, and continued to explain, "The trip to the academy was really worthwhile. This kind of paper is used to find the entrance and exit of the puzzle."

Yan Qingqiu didn't want to admit that he was timid, so he said, "I was just joking with you guys just now. I'm actually very brave."

Neither An Yan nor Li Rongsen exposed him and let him pretend for a while. They also lit a lantern each.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Let's go, we'll carry lanterns and find the way." An Yan said as she walked out of the store.

The three people walked the same path they had just walked, but found nothing new. They reached the end again, and it was a wall, very solid.

Yan Qingqiu said: "It seems that it is not that easy."

"We have to hurry, otherwise Zhou Qianqian's life will be in danger." An Yan said.

Li Rongsen moved the lantern closer to the wall and looked at it, and it was almost sticking to the wall.

Suddenly, the lantern caught fire, and the wall was also caught on fire.

An Yan said: "Hurry up and throw the lantern in your hand towards the wall."

Yan Qingqiu did as he was told.

I saw three lanterns burning at the same time, burning the entire wall. The flames shot up into the sky, as if they were going to burn up to the sky. Then a big hole appeared on the original wall.

"That's the case. Let's go in." Yan Qingqiu said as he walked in.

An Yan and Li Rongsen followed closely behind, and both looked back involuntarily, only to find that there was a intact wall behind them.

"I'll make a mark." An Yan said as he picked up a stone from the ground and drew an equilateral triangle on the wall.

The three people walked across a bridge and found a small village hidden inside. It was fully equipped, but all the houses and shops were empty, with no signs of human life.

There is a river in the middle, covered with moss and garbage, like stagnant water.

"Let's go in and take a look and find Zhou Qianqian as soon as possible." An Yan said.

"What is this place? Why are there so many people? Are they living in seclusion here?" Li Rongsen said as he looked around. Unlike them, what he saw was a thriving village with many people walking, talking and working.

An Yan and Yan Qingqiu looked at each other and felt something was not right because they didn't see anyone at all.

"He has fallen into a trap. It seems we need to give him some medicine." Yan Qingqiu said.

"It's useless. There's poison in his body, which will reduce the effect of the medicine." An Yan replied. She could only remind Li Rongsen and said, "Li Rongsen, look at me, can you see me?"

Li Rongsen closed his eyes first, concentrating for a while before opening them again. He saw An Yan standing in front of him, and the people he had just seen were gone. He said, "Do I have to concentrate to avoid getting lost?"

"That's right." An Yan nodded, regretting in her heart that she had let him follow her. It would be terrible if he ran into trouble later.
