Does the map match the actual situation?

Yao Xuehong, who was walking in the middle, her dimples suddenly became lighter, and asked with some suspicion: "Are you sure? Did you see it wrong?"

This map was pieced together by all the teams after randomly handing in their own maps. In order to prevent the NPCs in the safe area from causing mischief, they specially compared it before bringing the map out.

Based on Yao Xuehong's understanding, there should be no props that can tamper with the map.

"I must have read that correctly..." The guest who was in charge of leading the group shook his head, "I followed the map just now. It was all right in front of me, but it's not all right here."

"Sister Yao, why don't you come and take a look?"

The smile on Yao Xuehong's face has froze: "I can't understand such a complicated map. Can any of you understand it?"

While asking this question, Yao Xuehong was also a little annoyed - her external persona was that of an all-powerful goddess.

She was determined not to expose her complete ignorance of the road.

But... the program team probably won't record this little episode.

After all, the variety show has a limited number of episodes, and nothing important has happened now. It's just that a few people got the map wrong all of a sudden. The program team may not even be able to notice this detail, let alone film and record it.

Thinking of this, Yao Xuehong felt a little better. She smiled and said: "Don't be anxious, please take your time. We now have enough flashlight power and a few spare batteries."

Several people looked at the map for several minutes, but they couldn't figure it out.

As time passes by, the surrounding temperature has begun to drop, and I have begun to feel the cold wind...

"No, we can't spend any more time in this place." Yao Xuehong glanced around and said decisively, "Walking around in one place for too long will attract unnecessary attention. This rule is definitely still in effect, and it may be better than It was more dangerous before.”

A male guest in charge of the rear glanced at the end of the dark corridor behind him and asked with some fear: "Then what should we do now?"

What is more terrifying than the danger behind is the possibility of danger behind.

The insecurity of the unknown is far more oppressive than the known danger.

"First go back the same way and find the standard reference object on the map." Yao Xuehong looked very calm and gave the solution in an orderly manner. "After finding it, we can move forward in the direction of the reference object... Don't worry about wasting time. Know that haste makes waste.”

The four of them summed it up and thought that this was indeed the case, so they walked back a certain distance step by step and carefully.

They didn't breathe a sigh of relief until they saw a familiar scene in front of them.

At least I didn't get lost on the way back.

There is only one thing more terrifying than not being able to find your way to your destination, and that is not being able to find your way back.

Now it seems that at least the most terrible thing has not happened.

"Look, this building is marked on the map." The guest who led the way pointed to the pattern on the map, "Even the direction is marked."

Yao Xuehong, who didn't understand the map at all, nodded and agreed: "Then according to the road shown on the map, how should we go next?"

The leader looked at the map and said in a strange tone: "According to what the map shows, the path we just took is correct... Sister Yao, are you here to take a look?"

Don't let me see the map again!

Yao Xuehong gritted her teeth and smiled: "Okay... let me see, there should be no problem. Where are the other two? Did you see anything?"

The other two guests took the map, compared it carefully, and shook their heads slowly: "I also think we were heading in the right direction."

"Maybe it's because we missed an intersection along the way?" Seeing that everyone recognized his direction, the leading guest breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's walk slower later and look for it more carefully?"

It would be really uncomfortable if he messed up things due to his own reasons and were besieged by Yao Xuehong's fans.

Among all the 16 guests, Yao Xuehong’s fans have the strongest combat power and the highest degree of crystallization.

Being targeted by her fans, the comment section and super chatter will be lively for at least a week.

Although everyone has been in the entertainment industry for a long time and is basically immune to this kind of damage, this kind of negative traffic that has no monetization ability should be as little as possible.

"Okay, let's shine the flashlight to the side..."

The few people adjusted themselves and continued to move forward. This time they were more careful. They used flashlights to shine on every wall and almost no detail was missed.

After walking in the long and deep corridor for a while, carefully passing through several shabby classrooms covered with spider webs, the leader suddenly stopped while looking at the map with a flashlight.

Yao Xuehong was startled by the sudden stop of the team, and subconsciously asked: "What's wrong?"

"Did you find any other intersections along the way?" The leader's voice was trembling for some reason.

Yao Xuehong held a flashlight in her hand. She shook her head with certainty: "I didn't find it."

"Don't you think the place we are in now is very strange?" The leading guest desperately compared the map and the environment. "It doesn't match the signs on the map, and it's different from the place we first came to..."

Is it different from the first time you came?

A few of them returned to the starting point from the wrong destination and then set off along the same road, and actually ended up in different places?

A chill rose in Yao Xuehong's heart: "Could it be that you remembered it wrong?"

"Impossible." The leading guest shook his head with certainty, "I remember clearly that when we came here, we encountered four piles of bones on the road, three on the left and one on the right."

"But this time, we traveled significantly more distances than last time, but we only encountered two piles of bones, and they were both on our right!"

"The layout of these classrooms looks similar, but in fact there are many problems in the details..."

“The first time we came, there were absolutely no teaching aids on the podium!”

"There are also types of desks... When we first came here, the desks were all wooden. Look now, the brackets of this desk are made of metal!"

"I can guarantee that we have never been to this place...I didn't even find this place on the map!"

"Come here and look at the map. There is no place with such a layout."

Yao Xuehong felt her fingers were a little cold. She and the other two quickly walked up and carefully checked the map.

In the end, everyone came to the same conclusion - this place was indeed not on the map.

The position they are in now simply "doesn't exist"!

The correctness of the map was verified by most people last week. How could it be? !

Yao Xuehong could already feel the speed of blood flow. She barely maintained the smile on her face and said, "Well, not necessarily? Have you forgotten that this secret room has a fourth floor? The map does not include the layout of the fourth floor. ...Is it possible that we reached the fourth floor unknowingly?"

"But we have never gone up the stairs at all. How did we get to the fourth floor?" A guest reminded, "This is a secret room, and it's not really haunted..."

At this point, the four of them were silent for a moment.

Haunted…

Yes, they now feel like this place is really haunted.

There was obviously no oppression, no NPC could be seen, and no danger was encountered. But the more this happened, the more the four of them felt that there was danger lurking in all directions.

Everywhere is safe, but nowhere is safe!

They have already encountered such a weird thing. If they don't deal with it, what awaits them next will definitely be a group destruction crisis.

"I, what should we do now?"

Yao Xuehong put her hands behind her back, her tone still calm: "Go back the way you came. Since this place has been determined to be very unsafe and there is no way to reach our mission location, there is no need to continue to rush in."

"I also think so... Anyway, there is more than one way to get to that place. If we can't get through here, we can go to the second floor first and go around from above."

Although the detour will take you through more dangerous places, it is still easier than finding your way in a completely unfamiliar environment.

In their current place, even the map doesn't work!

The other two people have already retreated in their hearts: "There is really no need to explore anymore. The main reason is that there is not even a single clue about the changes in the secret room. This is obviously not the place to come now."

After reaching an agreement, several people looked at each other, carefully evacuated from the abandoned classroom, and began to return the same way for the second time.

"It feels like we have wasted a lot of time." The leading guest has been replaced by another one, and he carefully advances in the corridor. "But I think other groups are definitely not much better than us. They must have also encountered a crisis."

Yao Xuehong understands the principle of haste, waste in speed: "After we get back, let's not set off yet. Let's go to the safe area to take a rest and see if we can get any information from the NPC."

Now there is an extremely strange atmosphere in the entire secret room, and Yao Xuehong has a strong feeling that soon there will be a super crisis sweeping the entire secret room.

The chief planner always emphasizes the difficulty of the second week intentionally or unintentionally. This not only means that the intrigue between the groups has become fierce, but it is also likely to imply the danger of the secret room itself.

In the first week, no matter what the crisis is, it is dispersed. Only when the team reaches a specific place will a specific crisis be triggered.

The spread of this crisis is limited and has no linkage with other crises.

It is a passive trigger, similar to a trap.

Yao Xuehong has also been in the entertainment industry for many years, and her mind has long been refined - she has experienced the torture in the first week and witnessed the malicious intentions of the program crew, and she absolutely does not believe that the only dangers in the secret room are these passively triggered traps.

Maybe, a crisis that requires the cooperation of all guests is already brewing!

Compete and cooperate at the same time, and self-disintegrate in intrigues. This is the purpose of the program team!

Perhaps stopping the exploration temporarily, wandering around the safe room for a while, and observing the changes is the best choice at the moment.

The guest in the middle nodded: "We have sufficient funds now. After returning to the safe zone, we can buy a piece of information from the NPC."

"Indeed, we need a new piece of information to determine the new danger in the secret room."

"I think there is a possibility... There is actually nothing wrong with this map, but its information only represents the layout of the secret room in the first week, not completely representative of this week. Do you still remember what Chief Planner Qin Xin just said? Some information has expired."

"This is misleading. I thought at first that the text information had expired. Who knew that something as important as a map could expire? This was put together by so many teams in the first week with so much hard work. When the results come back, tell us it's expired? Do the program crew have to be so malicious?"

"The map can still expire, which really made me laugh..."

"If it weren't for the fact that the dormitory building can only be entered in the evening, I would just lock myself in the dormitory today."

"You think too much. If you dare to play such a trick, the program team has plenty of ways to punish you."

"..."

The four people who chose to leave the dangerous area were talking and laughing, and walked back along the way they came, looking relaxed.

Although the progress of the mission has been delayed, at least they are safe during this period...

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the person in the lead to shout: "There is light ahead, we should be almost at the safe zone!"

"Let's go, let's go..."

After walking a few more steps, Yao Xuehong suddenly paused, and the smile on her cheeks disappeared instantly: "Wait a minute, are you sure that is a safe area? How come I remember that the lights in the safe area are not that dim?"

"ah?!"

"Yes, is that so?"

"But we...didn't we go back the way we came?"

Yao Xuehong resisted the urge to roar, and continued to say in a voice with everything under control: "Think about it for yourselves, the path we took in the past can be replaced quietly, and the path we took when we come back will not be replaced. ?"

"The program team has given us a chance... We should have withdrawn immediately when we first discovered that the map was wrong."

Now, it's too late.

"Then, what should we do?"

"There is no other way. Let's see if we can get through." Yao Xuehong forced herself not to vibrate in her voice, "Where is the shining place in front?"

The leading guest squinted his eyes and said, "It seems to be the infirmary?"

The person standing behind Yao Xuehong asked in confusion: "Why is there such a retro fence-door elevator in the infirmary? I remember there was none before..."

The person in charge of the rear took two steps forward: "Let's go and take a look. Anyway, we also have a faculty ID card. Even if the rules change, at least one person can get on the elevator."

Finally, a voice came from the end of the team: "You still remember the rules of the infirmary behind the map, right? Don't break the rules later."

After listening to the conversation between the other four people, Yao Xuehong nodded: "Don't worry, I still remember..."

Before she finished speaking, her pupils suddenly shrank!

Wait a moment!

Obviously there are only three teammates...

Why did you just hear four different voices? ! (End of chapter)
