Chapter 22 The tunnel in the village

"Teacher Xu, what a coincidence, I bumped into you."

Chu Zhaozhao took the initiative to greet Xu Yu, and Xu Yu nodded.

"Since we are partners, let's work together." Xu Yu generously extended his hand to shake Chu Zhaozhao's hand.

"Teacher Xu, please take care of me. I believe that with the aura of the best actor, we will definitely be able to escape from this secret room."

Chu Zhaozhao said the scene, and soon their next mission came.

Today’s theme is a Chinese wedding. The task card reminds them that they must wear Chinese wedding clothes before they can walk normally in the village.

Chu Zhaozhao and Xu Yu hid immediately without being discovered by the villagers.

"Teacher Xu, there is a clothing store over there."

"It's a bit far. It might not be convenient for us to go there, and the owner of that clothing store may not necessarily give us clothes." Xu Yu analyzed calmly.

Chu Zhaozhao looked at the villagers in groups around him and said, "Teacher Xu, I will divert those villagers away. You are responsible for entering the clothing store and negotiating with the boss."

"I'll lure these villagers away, and you go into the clothing store."

Xu Yu pulled Chu Zhaozhao back and ran out.

The villagers kept up with Xu Yu's pace and chased Xu Yu behind him. Chu Zhaozhao immediately ran into the clothing store.

Through the glass of the clothing store, Chu Zhaozhao saw that Xu Yu had climbed onto the elevated structure, and he was about to go around to the clothing store from the other side.

"Who are you!"

The boss was alert, pressing the alarm button with one hand.

Once the police were called, the villagers would be attracted. Chu Zhaozhao told the boss that she was a good person.

"Boss, we are from a detective agency. We heard that a girl named Xiaoqing has disappeared. We were entrusted by her brother to come to the village to look for her."

"Xiao Qing, she has been missing for many years, and her brother has disappeared long ago. Who asked you to find her?" The actor said his lines seriously.

Chu Zhaozhao took out the letter of entrustment and showed it to the boss. The boss confirmed that it was written by Xiaoqing's brother and released the button.

Xu Yu walked back from the elevated platform and got into the clothing store through the window.

"Boss, don't press, don't press, this is my partner, we are both from the detective agency." Chu Zhaozhao immediately stopped the boss.

The boss asked: "Do you have any needs?"

"Our mission card reminds us that we need to change into the clothes in the village so that we can walk normally in the village. Boss, I would like to ask you if you can sell us two pairs of clothes?" Chu Zhaozhao said politely.

The boss shook his head and said: "All clothes in the village have accounts. Unless you are willing to do something for me, I will give you two pairs of clothes."

Now that they had a task, Xu Yu and Chu Zhaozhao readily accepted it, but this task required them to go across half the village to find someone to bring something back.

"The villagers outside are running very fast. Let me go and you hide here." After Xu Yu finished speaking, he walked to the window.

The villagers outside the door also surrounded the window. Chu Zhaozhao and Xu Yu could not get out. Besides, they had a feeling that they would break down the door in the next second.

"What should we do? We can't get out." Chu Zhaozhao said, expressing the anxious feeling.

"Is there a tunnel?"

Xu Yu squatted down and knocked hard. He found that the floor sounded empty. Xu Yu lifted up the carpet and got into the tunnel first.

The boss gave them a lamp, and Chu Zhaozhao took it and got into the tunnel.

Just as Xu Yu and Chu Zhaozhao got into the tunnel, the villagers outside the door broke open and came in. They lost their purpose and returned to normal.

The two people were a little crowded in the tunnel and almost leaned against each other.

Photographers were not allowed inside the tunnel, so they had to wear a camera on their head.

"Are you afraid of the dark?" Xu Yu turned around and asked Chu Zhaozhao.

Chu Zhaozhao shook his head and found that there was an exit on the left and an exit on the right.

"You choose how to go." Xu Yu handed over the decision to Chu Zhaozhao. Chu Zhaozhao remembered that there was a map just before he came in, with green lines connecting it. Chu Zhaozhao wondered if it was an authentic map.

"If we want to cross half the village, we should go to the right. This should be a straight road."

After Chu Zhaozhao said this, Xu Yu took the lead and took the lead.

After the two people walked for a while, the road ahead suddenly became very short and they needed to crawl forward.

"I'll be lighting in front, you grab my clothes and follow me." Xu Yu took the light and said.

Chu Zhaozhao hesitated for a while and grabbed Xu Yu's clothes.

"There is light in front of us, so we should be able to get through." Xu Yu guessed.

The two of them didn't dare to stay in the tunnel for long, so they crawled forward as fast as possible.

With a "boom", a mechanism was triggered in the tunnel behind Chu Zhaozhao, and some weird sounds came from it.

"Xu Yu!"

Chu Zhaozhao and Xu Yu were separated by a mechanism. Xu Yu immediately turned around and wanted to remove the mechanism.

"Why didn't I trigger the mechanism when I came over? You triggered the mechanism as soon as you came over." Xu Yu said while groping on the wall.

Chu Zhaozhao didn't know why, but she saw some words on her wall and read the words again.

"Let me go?"

Chu Zhaozhao looked at these words in confusion.

Some words also appeared on Xu Yu's wall. They were red paint and gradually appeared on the wall.

"Take her and leave this village quickly, otherwise she will stay here for the rest of her life."

Xu Yu and Chu Zhaozhao both shuddered.

After reading these words, the mechanism is eliminated.

"It seems like it's not a mechanism, it's a reminder for us." Chu Zhaozhao said in a low voice.

At this point in the program, Chu Zhaozhao had forgotten that he was recording a program. He could only say that the setting was very realistic and the plot was very contagious.

It was time to stand up and walk on the road ahead. Chu Zhaozhao and Xu Yu patted the dust on their bodies and moved forward.

Xu Yu held Chu Zhaozhao's hand. Chu Zhaozhao was a little surprised, but his expression looked calm.

"Teacher Xu, do those words tell us that everyone in this village has problems?" Chu Zhaozhao asked.

"I dare not say that for everyone, at least the village chief is very strange. We haven't seen him yet, and people in the village do not allow outsiders to come in."

Xu Yu and Chu Zhaozhao made a brief analysis and came out of the tunnel.

After leaving the tunnel, Chu Zhaozhao and Xu Yu met Wu Rui and Wu Tong.

"You two are partners, what a coincidence." Wu Rui greeted them in a low voice.

The four of them hid in the grass and chatted briefly, exchanging existing information.

"This Xiaoqing, she was probably trafficked from this village. We saw her letters. Her brother has been looking for her. Her brother is a designer."

"Designer, could he be the owner of that clothing store just now?" Chu Zhaozhao looked at Xu Yu.

Wu Tong added: "Actually, we suspected that Xiao Qing was dead because we met a child and she told us that something happened in the village's reservoir."

After Wu Tong said this, Chu Zhaozhao felt goosebumps all over his body.

"No wonder we encountered those words in the tunnel. It turned out to be Xiaoqing's advice to us."

Chu Zhaozhao said quietly, and Xu Yu's expression froze instantly.
