Her Majesty the Queen is a god in the entertainment industry

"Are you afraid?"

Being provoked by Chang Ning standing behind him, Yun Yi took a deep breath and directly raised his feet to cross the threshold.

He took a flashlight and looked inside, and immediately concluded, "This seems to be a restaurant."

Everyone also followed in.

Under the flashlight light, he saw that there were more than a dozen tables neatly arranged in the spacious lobby. Chairs and benches were also neatly placed on the table. There were even a few unopened wine bottles on the counter at the end.

Except that there was a thick layer of dust on both the floor and the furniture, it was no different from those ancient inns in costume dramas that had just closed.

As people walked back and forth in the lobby, there were many messy footprints on the dusty ground.

Yun Yi walked to the counter and wanted to open the wine jar to see if there was any wine inside. Just as she was about to make a move, Chang Ning, who was not far away from her, slapped her on the back of her hand. "Do you know that you can sail a thousand-year ship with caution?" If there is anything deadly in the jar, if you open it and release it, we will all die. You can die if you want, but don't take me with you."

"What a strong hand!" Yun Yi covered his hand that was hot and red from being slapped, grinned, and decisively admitted his mistake, "I was wrong, and I won't dare to do it again."

Jiang Lingxi and Xu Zhao looked away.

"I'll go look behind the counter."

"Then I'll take people to the second floor."

Jiang Lingxi went around behind the counter, opened the drawer that was half open, and saw several thick account books inside. She was about to take it out carefully to see if she could tell the specific era of this ancient desert capital from the account books. There was a tiny sound from behind the screen on the other side.

He immediately turned his head and looked over, "Who?"

no respond.

Then they are not from their side.

Chang Ning was stunned for a moment, then walked behind the screen cautiously and looked carefully, "Sister Xi, there is no one there."

"Maybe I misheard."

There was no more movement from behind the screen. Jiang Lingxi put her hand on the top account book. But before she picked it up, she felt the fragility of the paper. She was afraid that the account book would fall apart if she took it. Can give up.

After Xu Zhao and his people came down from exploring the guest rooms on the second floor, everyone went out.

Jiang Lingxi deliberately stayed at the end, and when she was about to close the door again, she suddenly looked inside with a flashlight.

A pair of green eyes flashed past the counter screen so fast that she thought it was her imagination.

Next, we explored several houses, some for self-occupation and some for business, and found nothing unusual except for the thick dust.

"what time is it?"

"It's almost four in the morning."

"Then don't leave now. Find a place to rest, summarize the previous findings, and then take turns to rest."

Yun Yi raised his hand and suggested, "If you want to rest, the private house just now is nice. It's spacious and has a bed in the corner. Sister Xi and Chang Ning, you girls would be better off sleeping on the bed. Just put on sleeping bags."

This proposal was unanimously approved.

The place was not only spacious, but also quite close. Everyone's physical strength had decreased a lot after being on the move for so long, and they no longer wanted to travel far just to find a place to rest.

It took more than ten people to clean it in less than 10 minutes, and it was basically just a matter of sweeping away the dust on the surface.

After cleaning up, everyone gathered in a circle.

"If you have any discoveries, just tell me. You don't have to think about whether it will be useful."

Changning raised his hand and spoke first: "The houses in this ruins are all very orderly. Besides large pieces of furniture, there are no other items such as food or daily utensils. I speculate that the people who once lived here did not raise their hands. Has the city moved away?"

"That's my guess too." Xu Zhao waited for her to finish and nodded in agreement. "This site is in the desert. It's probably because the climate conditions are getting worse and worse, and people can't live anymore and choose to move away."

"..."

After everyone finished talking, Jiang Lingxi was the only one who had not yet spoken.

Jiang Lingxi met everyone's gaze, "It seems that everyone agrees with the conclusion that the ancient capital ruins were abandoned and the residents moved out in an orderly and prepared manner." Before everyone could nod, her tone changed, "But there is a detail I don’t know if you have noticed that there are no traces of use in either the house or the furniture in the ruins. No matter how much a person takes care of his or her house, it is impossible for there to be no signs of use at all, right? "

Yun Yi had already stood up and wiped a small long table beside the wall with his hands.I didn't pay much attention to it before, but now I take a closer look.

This table has been around for too long, and there is no scratch or bump on it.

This can also explain that it was newly replaced, but when I checked other furniture, there was really no trace of use.

"Then it's possible that they just moved in..."

He stopped talking halfway through.

The environment cannot deteriorate all of a sudden. Just building this city in the desert will take a lot of time.

Who would put so much effort into building a city that you can't even live in for a long time!

Are you so full that you have nothing to do?

Yun Yi sat back with a suspicious look on his face, "How could this happen?"

Xu Zhao's expression became a little more solemn, "In this case, all our previous guesses will be overturned."

The house fell silent for a while.

With this puzzling discovery, everyone's mood became solemn.

Jiang Lingxi hesitated for a moment when she saw this, but she still didn't say anything about the pair of eyes she seemed to have seen before.

After all, even she herself wasn't sure. It was probably because she was so busy that she was dazzled all night.

"Let's take turns to rest for a while, recuperate before looking for other clues."

However, in such a strange place, it was impossible to fall asleep deeply, so I could only take a light sleep to relax my mind.

the other side.

Yin Chong hasn't rested yet.

"How many people did Chongshi send out?"

"Five."

"Five versus sixteen, he is really confident." Yin Chong said with a sneer, "Have the people I asked you to send out found any trace of Wu Jue and the others?"

Luan Hua paused and shook his head, "Not yet."

"There is nothing to worry about Jiang Lingxi and the others at the moment. The key is to be unconscious and not allow them to successfully rendezvous. Furthermore," Yin Chong looked at the table in front of him that had been wiped extremely clean by his subordinates, "I always feel that this place is a little weird."

"eccentric?"

"I can't tell you. In short, don't be careless at any time. It's better to be careful."

Luan Hua nodded seriously. Since the adults said something was strange, even if she didn't see anything, she didn't dare to take it lightly.

"It's getting late, let's go and rest first."

Luan Hua followed the instructions and went out.

Their current residence is in a large house, but to say it is a large house is only relative to the other houses in the ruins.

Nearly forty people live in a courtyard. Except for adults and Chongshi, everyone else lives in several rooms, which is a bit crowded.

Before going back to the room where he was staying tonight, Luan Hua thought of what Master just said and planned to personally patrol around the yard before going back.

When she walked to the door, she frowned and asked, "Why isn't the door closed properly?"

When the two gatekeepers saw the person coming, they quickly explained: "Is the gate tight? The wood may have deformed due to age. Sister Luan, don't worry, we will guard here to ensure that no mosquitoes can fly in."

"There are no mosquitoes underground here, so they won't be able to fly in." Luan Hua said angrily and walked over, "Let me give it a try."

The door was opened, Luan Hua exerted her strength with her arms, and saw that the door was about to be closed tightly.

A big, round red eye suddenly appeared outside the crack of the door, blinked and disappeared, so fast it seemed like an illusion!
