Yu Wen was taking photos of the tombstone, and You Huo was holding a torch to illuminate the area.
Suddenly, he felt someone step on his right foot. He asked Qin Jiu in dissatisfaction, "Why did you step on me?"
Qin Jiu: "?"
He looked down and saw that You Huo's shoes were stained with dirt. It was very fresh, as if someone had stepped on it.
Qin Jiu looked up. "Am I that bored?"
You Huo: "Who knows?"
Everyone else was a few steps away from him, except for Qin Jiu, who was standing side by side with him. He could reach him with a turn of his toes.
Besides, who in this group would have the guts to do this?
Mr. 001 had just taken the blame when Yu Wen shouted again, "Who kicked me? The photos are all blurry. "
Lao Yu quickly denied it. "I didn't."
Yu Yao also waved his hand and said, "It wasn't me."
Yu Wen mumbled, "It wasn't you and it wasn't him. Who else could it be?"
…
Everyone was silent for two seconds before suddenly looking at the ground.
You Huo raised the torch and swept it around, only to find that the surroundings had changed.
There were a few bumps in the soil, and the dead branches and leaves on top of them had flipped to the sides. It was as if … in just a few seconds, something had crawled out of the mud.
Everyone froze in place and looked at each other in horror.
The light from the torch made everyone's faces pale. Yu Wen's lips trembled. Just as he was about to say something, You Huo raised his index finger to his lips.
In the silence, the sound of something crawling could be heard one after another in the forest.
There were echoes in the valley, overlapping each other. It was impossible to tell where they were coming from.
Some of them seemed to be sticking to their feet …
Mike and the others immediately felt their lower limbs go numb, and they didn't dare to move at all.
You Huo turned around and shone the light on a bush.
Under everyone's gaze, a few pale things flashed past and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Judging by the movement, they seemed to be heading towards the village.

Chen Bin and Leung Won-ho shared a room.
They did not think it wise to venture into the woods at night, nor to wander about the village. The best thing to do was to hide in the house and sleep.
Chen Bin stood by the window and said worriedly, "Are we really going to ignore them? I don't think it's a good idea … "
"How many rounds have you taken? Why are you still so indecisive? " Leung Won-ho leaned against the sink in the bathroom and splashed water on his face. "This exam is still based on team scoring. As long as you answer the questions correctly, everyone will get extra points. Why do we have to rush to the top? If they find clues and answers, that would be great. We don't owe them anything. We'll find an opportunity to repay them later. "
Chen Bin: "What if we don't find it? What if something happens? "
Leung Won-ho paused and took a towel to wipe his face. He said vaguely, "Then … they were too reckless. We tried to persuade them, didn't we? The driver who sent us here and the villagers all told us not to enter the forest recklessly. They knowingly entered the forest and did not care about their lives. "
Chen Bin was still listless. Leung Won-ho said, "To tell you the truth, I took three rounds and this is the word I felt the most. We have to cherish our lives. We can't all be reckless. You can't put all your eggs in one basket. Even a child knows this. This is also considered leaving a way out. If something happens, we can still cover for them. "
He was lost in thought for a moment and added, "This is the best way to win."
Chen Bin looked at him and said, "Brother Liang, the way you calculate the odds … you look like a human calculator."
Leung Won-ho scratched his buzz cut and said irritably, "Let's not talk about this. I'm going to sleep. You better hurry up and sleep too."
·
They each rolled up a blanket and didn't dare to delay, forcing themselves to sleep.
They thought they would have to toss and turn for a long time. Who knew that the incense in the room would have a miraculous effect on sleeping. Soon, snoring sounds could be heard.
Suddenly, there was a knocking sound in the room next door. It was very soft, but it was extremely clear in the night. It was hair-raising.
Chen Bin turned over. Leung Won-ho was still snoring and did not notice.
The knocking sound sounded in several rooms one after another, getting closer and closer …
After a few minutes, there was finally a knocking sound in this room.
Knock knock knock.
Chen Bin turned over again. His eyelids trembled twice.
Knock knock knock.
The knocking sound rang again.
Chen Bin was shocked and finally woke up.
He did not dare to open his eyes. He stayed motionless on the bed and listened for the location of the knocking sound.
Then, he broke out in cold sweat …
Because the sound was under the bed. It was knocking on his back through the bed board.
Knock knock knock.
That thing seemed to know that he was awake. After three more knocks, a light voice suddenly sounded, "I'm looking for a disobedient guest. Did you sew a Doll today?"
Chen Bin almost peed on the spot.
He closed his eyes tightly and tried to pretend to be asleep.
However, the voice did not give up. "Tell me, did you sew a Doll today?"
Leung Won-ho, who was next to him, twitched his leg. He seemed to have woken up as well.
The voice was already close to their ears. "I'll ask you one last time. Did you sew a Doll today?"
There was dead silence in the room.
The voice sighed softly. "Sigh …"
Leung Won-ho suddenly shouted, "I sewed it, I sewed it!! I sewed it all! "
"Oh … What an obedient guest." The voice said regretfully, "Then you'll have to live …"
Leung Won-ho and Chen Bin were in a state of panic. It took them two seconds to understand what it meant. They were suddenly relieved.
The voice asked again, "Who sewed the most?"
Leung Won-ho immediately said, "Me! Me! I sewed both of his legs! He only sewed half of his arm! "
Chen Bin was stunned.
"That's great." The voice said.
Leung Won-ho breathed a sigh of relief and opened his eyes slightly.
He saw a flash of cold light.
The last thing he saw was a pale hand raising a bone chopping knife and chopping down at his leg.
At that moment, he thought of the female villager who was chiseling ice by the river.
He thought to himself, This action is so similar …
·
You Huo and the others spent almost the entire night in the forest. They searched everywhere but could not find the crawling things.
The traces of the soil being stirred up disappeared in the blink of an eye. The dead branches and leaves were still on the ground, as if they had never been moved.
They only came out of the forest when the sky started to brighten.
"It doesn't seem that scary?" Lao Yu muttered, "I told you not to go into the forest. We stayed in there for the entire night and nothing happened."
Yu Wen's face was numb. "So what if I'm scared …"
"But we're still alive. We didn't get hurt."
"That's true."
But when they thought of the movement last night, they felt that it wasn't that simple.
Those deathly pale things passed by, as if they had found other targets and let them go for the time being.
·
The sky soon brightened.
The villagers' houses were still dark. The windows were old, and some of the doors were still covered with cobwebs.
At first glance, they looked like abandoned old houses.
You Huo suddenly stopped in front of a house.
Everyone was stunned. They suddenly remembered that this was the house where the crazy villager lived.
"You guys go first." You Huo said and knocked on the door of the crazy villager's house.
"You're looking for that villager?" Yu Wen asked, "Do you believe what he said yesterday?"
He knew that You Huo had lost his memory and thought that You Huo would be very sensitive about this matter.
Suddenly, someone said that they had seen him. Although it seemed unreliable, maybe his brother was curious and wanted to ask?
In the end, You Huo said, "I don't believe it."
He had paid careful attention yesterday. The crazy villager's eyes were very unfocused when he looked at him, but when he looked at Qin Jiu, his eyes lit up.
Especially when he said to Qin Jiu, "You know me." His expression was serious.
If the crazy villager was telling the truth, it would be the part about Qin Jiu that was more true.
But at that time, Qin Jiu was blocked. He didn't see it and didn't react.
Besides, it was none of his business which NPC Mr. 001 knew and whether he paid attention to him.
You Huo thought to himself.
He only knocked on the door because the crazy villager was the easiest to get information out of him.
·
They knocked for five minutes and didn't get any response.
"You don't dare to come out, right? Or you didn't wake up? Didn't the village chief say that all the villagers are afraid of things at night, so they try to sleep soundly and wake up later? "
"Let's wait until evening."
Everyone remembered the village chief's words and didn't wait here.
The time to collect the papers was getting closer and closer. They hurried across the frozen river and gathered in front of the Black Lady's door.
On the door, the listening questions displayed the day before were clearly visible, but the answer area was still blank.
With their previous experience, they quickly found the pen to answer the questions.
This time, it was a real pen, but the material was special. It was carved out of white bones.
Yu Wen grabbed it and his scalp went numb.
Question (1) What was the name of the Black Lady?
He took out the photo of the tombstone and copied a large paragraph of scribbles in the answer area. He didn't even miss the punctuation.
He was about to copy the second question when You Huo stopped him.
"Don't copy."
"Why?" Yu Wen said, "This tombstone should also have the names of the Black Lady's family. We have found the answers to two questions."
You Huo looked at him with an expression that looked like he wanted to carve the word "stupid" on his face. "Can you save one question for tomorrow morning?"
Yu Wen: "… Yes."
·
The big examinees surrounded the door and waited for the results to be released.
You Huo didn't rest for the whole night. He leaned against the wall and fell asleep in the morning light.
From the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of Qin Jiu standing a little further away. He had one hand in his pocket and the other hand was playing with the help card.
From this angle and distance, he couldn't see Qin Jiu's expression.
But You Huo inexplicably felt that this invigilator 001 was missing something.
He couldn't tell exactly what it was …
After all, his understanding of Qin Jiu was limited to these few days.
·
After waiting for a long time, Lao Yu suddenly said, "Hey, it's almost time to collect the papers. That Chen Bin and that … Leung Won-ho, why haven't they woken up yet?"
"I don't know. The crow just reminded them once. They should be awake by now, right?"
Lao Yu said, "You guys wait for me to open the door. I'll go wake them up."
As he spoke, he turned his head and knocked on Chen Bin and Leung Won-ho's door.
The knocking on the door and the cawing of the crow sounded at almost the same time.
It was time to collect the papers for the first time.
On the Black Lady's door, two words were picked out from the densely packed tombstone inscriptions and circled.
Five points added.
Everyone let out a long sigh of relief and became happy.
The Golden Thigh was indeed the Golden Thigh.
Immediately after, a new question appeared on the lower half of the door.
