Zi Mei woke up from her sleep. She didn't know how long she had slept. He only remembered that after he went down to the bottom of the bridge, a bee came at him. Then, he became confused and forgot everything that happened after that.

She rubbed her head and looked around. She realized that she was lying in the car, and she was also lying in the back row, motionless. Lin Yi sat in the driver's seat, but her head was lowered on the steering wheel as if she was asleep. Li Zimei stood up and pushed Lin Yi. Seeing that there was no reaction, her body was very weak. She forced herself to stand up and push Lin Yi, but she still did not get a reply.

The car was parked on the side of the road, and the other three were nowhere to be seen. Li Zimei was very puzzled. What happened when she slept? She didn't give up on waking Lin Yi up. Seeing that there was still some water in the kettle beside her, she unscrewed the lid and sprinkled it on Lin Yi. Lin Yi suddenly straightened up from the cold and exclaimed," Phew! What a big amount of water!" Zimei, you're awake? Why are we here!" After he woke up, he looked out of the window. He was surrounded by lush forests. The bridge and the canyon were nowhere to be found.

" Care, care, wake up!" Zi Mei dripped the water on her concerned face and shook her. She slowly woke up, but she heard her ask curiously," Brother Lin, where are we?!"”

"What do you mean by there? I don't understand either!”Lin Yi looked down at his watch and then looked at the weather outside. The sun had just emerged from the clouds. If one listened carefully, one could hear the chirping of birds. The morning fog appeared in the oily green forest, and the sun shone through the gaps.

"What's going on? Why is it morning? Strange!" After Lin Yi saw the surrounding environment and the time, he was also puzzled.

The three of them looked at each other, not understanding what had happened. They heard a car slowly driving over from the direction they came from. Before they could get close, they heard Ling Seven shouting," Lin Yi, why did you stop here? Where's Zimei?!" Is there anything?"

Zi Mei was initially fine, but when she heard Ling Qi calling her, she shrunk into the car and pursed her lips, not intending to speak. Seeing this, she smacked her lips obediently and stretched her head out to the car." Sister Ling Qi, Sister Zimei is fine. She's already awake."”

"I don't understand either! We woke up here…This, this!" Lin Yi saw that the other party was asking him, but he did not know why. He was conflicted for a moment and his expression became uncomfortable.

"Alright, alright, I've asked. The place they were going to was not far away. You can still drive, right?" Ling Qi saw Lin Yi's confused expression, but it was not appropriate to park here, so they decided to go ahead first.

Lin Yi nodded and looked back. The two people behind them saw that they were ready to leave and sat there quietly. When Lin Yi saw that Ling Qi had already left, she drove and followed him.

However, Lin Yi kept recalling what happened last night. Ever since she parted ways with Ling Qi, she had passed through a dark tunnel. After that, she couldn't remember anything. There must be something wrong with it. Ling Qi had also come from there, so he had to ask around before making any plans.

After turning left and right, Lin Yi and the others finally saw the village not far away from them. There were many buildings on the endless plain. Outside the village, there were people coming and going. All kinds of hawkers were hawking their goods. The village wasn't small. It was even more lively than the town Lin Yi and the others passed by yesterday.

The few of them got off the car and looked from afar. Ling Jiu pointed at the crowd not far away and said," Is this a village? This is a town, right?"

"Let's go! He would find a place to rest first. Since he was already here, he would talk about anything after eating and drinking.”

Lin Yi patted Ling Nine's shoulder. From the looks of it, the village was just like any other village. There was nothing unusual about it. After giving Ling Seven a look, everyone got into their respective cars and started to head back to the village.

However, they did not see any place to stay after driving for half a day. Lin Yi had no choice but to stop the car and ask the vendors on the street. The peddler told Lin Yi that if outsiders wanted to stay, they had to go to the village committee first. They could arrange accommodation there. Even if other places accepted guests, they had to inform the village.

This was really a strange rule. The economy was so developed now, but he had never heard of such complicated procedures. However, after hearing the peddler's sincere words, he had no reason not to believe it. Lin Yihao asked where the village committee was. After tossing and turning for a while, they finally arrived here.

Outside the village committee, the local village secretary was having lunch. When he saw outsiders coming, he put down his bowl and chopsticks and smacked his lips. He licked his gums and looked at them. After learning that they needed to stay overnight, he led them around the village to find a place to stay.

Lin Yi thought that it was not a good idea for five or six people to follow him, so she pulled Ling Seven along to search. After arranging the rest of the people, she followed the village chief around. However, after asking a few villagers who were slightly more spacious, there was no place for five or six people to live, or they could squeeze together. But when Lin Yi thought about it, let alone Zi Mei, who had a delicate body and precious flesh, and her concern, even he would find it difficult to accept it!

Seeing their reluctance, the village chief suddenly thought of a place, but he was too embarrassed to say it. Seeing that they were dejected, he could only ask in a low voice," There's a place that's quite spacious, but it's someone else's ancestral hall. Do you mind?”

Ancestral hall? When Lin Yi and the others heard this, they instantly became sensitive. Was this luck? However, Lin Yi did not show any joy. Instead, he said with a sad expression,"Aiya! The ancestral hall! Was the ancestral hall open to outsiders? No, what do you think?" Seeing the village chief squinting his eyes, Lin One turned to Ling Seven and said in disdain.

"No, no, that place has long become a tourist attraction. It won't be a problem for you to stay there. But the cost was higher…Of course, it was given to the people in the ancestral hall.”The village chief saw the dissatisfaction on Lin Yi and the others 'faces and was afraid that it would affect their mood when they came out to play.

From the looks of it, it was not that the village did not allow outsiders to enter! But why did he have to report it to the village? Ling Seven was curious, so he went up to the village chief and asked in a childish voice," Village chief, why does your village need outsiders to report to the village? I think it's quite lively here. Aren't you afraid of trouble?”

The villager was stumped by the question. He frowned and looked around. Seeing that Ling Seven was still handsome, he felt pity for him. He approached Ling Seven and said softly," We had no choice. In recent years, many people have come to our place to search for treasures. Aiya! How should I tell you! You're digging up their ancestral graves." The village chief's face became nervous and angry as he said the second half of his sentence. Seeing this, Lin Yi seemed to be telling the truth. Are you saying that someone came here to rob the tomb? There didn't seem to be any treasures here!”

"How would I know? I only came here in the past decade. Originally, there was nothing in this place for nearly 30 years. It was said that in the 40s and 50s, due to famine, the people in the village fled.”

"Then why is there an ancestral hall?" Ling Qi thought for a moment and deliberately changed the topic to the ancestral hall.

"That! It was said that the people who had escaped from the village had made a fortune and came back to repair it! Since then, the village had been flooded with immigrants, but no one knew where they came from. After that, the town arranged for me to be the village chief. I didn't know much about the rest.”

"Ah! I see!" Ling Qi pursed his lips and nodded. The village chief stopped in front of a wooden door. Looking left and right, the white walls were covered with greenish-black tiles. This should be the back door. The village chief knocked on the door, and a head popped out. The two whispered a few words, and the village chief called Lin Yi and the others over.

After giving his instructions, the village chief left with a smile. The person who received them was a young man in a gray robe. He had a buzz cut and had a slight green stubble. He was about 25 or 26 years old, about the same age as Lin Yi and the others. That person gave a few instructions and went out to do his own things.

After the arrangements were made, Lin Yi asked Ling Seven to stay and wait while he went to fetch the others. If he had a car, he could leave it outside the village so that he could have a way out. This had always been a habit of the two of them. There was always someone or a way out. It was better to be prepared.

When Zi Mei heard that she was going to stay in someone else's ancestral hall, her face immediately turned extremely disdainful. She shouted," I'm not going, I'm not going! He wouldn't go no matter what. How strange would it be to live in that place! I'm not going."

Seeing that Zi Mei had declined, he was also embarrassed to follow her, so he could only hide behind Zi Mei. Ling Jiu didn't say anything. She just stood there and looked at Lu Liu. The two of them glared at each other from time to time, trying to determine who was stronger with their eyes.

Lin Yi had no choice but to wave his hand helplessly and leave without looking back. Before he left, he said to Zi Mei," If you don't stay in the luxury double room, you'll have to sleep in the simple shared bed."”

Hearing this, Zi Mei was extremely afraid. She hurriedly ran in front of Lin Yi and sat in her seat. Then, she did not say a word and covered her mouth. She looked at Lin Yi with hatred. Big liar."

When Lin Yi heard this, he could only smile helplessly. He could not say anything, so he could only shout," Brothers and sisters, please! Let's go!"
