Nanxi quickly glanced at the screen, then opened the shopping mall app and started making another large purchase.

Two days passed quickly like that.

Nanxi quickly packed everything up, took her sketchbook and Qiuqiu, and prepared to enter the instance.

……

"Haha, I never thought we'd actually find this place!"

Nanxi had just arrived here when she immediately heard a very loud voice from a fat man next to her.

The fat man's face was full of joy, and his small eyes gleamed as he looked at a dilapidated village not far ahead.

It is already dusk.

The surrounding area is a series of overlapping mountains, and the small village in front of us looks very ancient. There is even a wooden sign at the entrance, which seems to be a product of this era.

Through the blurry image, you can see three characters written on the sign at the village entrance: Anning Village.

"Click."

The fat man took out his phone and snapped a picture of the village: "Hehe, there's this haunted village called Anning Village online, and a lot of people in the comments say they came here specifically but couldn't find Anning Village... How could they not find it? They found it right away! In my opinion, they're just a bunch of cowards, too scared to even come and explore! I'll show them this picture and laugh at them."

"Yeah, yeah, they're just a bunch of cowards," a tall, thin woman with blond hair chimed in.

The boy next to her hesitated, glancing at the village and then at the twilight sky, but said nothing.

Haunted, Exploration, Anning Village.

Nanxi absorbed the clues and roughly understood the current situation.

[Hey streamer, I'm here!]

[Sob, it's so rare to see your beautiful face again.]

[I'm so angry! I get so angry just thinking about those two bastards, Chen Feng and Chen Ye!]

[Upstairs, would you dare say that to their faces?]

"Look at what you're saying! If I met you in person, I'd just yell 'Husband!'"

This dungeon looks really poor and run-down.

[You obviously don't have much experience. This poor, run-down village is actually more dangerous in dungeons... I have a feeling this won't be an easy dungeon either. Nan-jie, be careful!]

[Is this a daredevil squad venturing into a haunted place? Based on my experience watching horror movies... this is bad news.]

Hmm? I think I saw someone I know inside.

Nanxi also observed the members of this haunted team. Apart from the fat guy and the blond couple, there were five people left.

"Nanxi?!"

Suddenly, someone stepped out from the group and approached Nanxi with great surprise.

Nanxi looked up and asked, "Li An?"

The person who came was Li An.

Nanxi never expected to encounter Li An again in this instance.

Li An was overjoyed: "Nanxi, it's so wonderful to see you here!"

Others may not know, but Li An does.

Nanxi looks gentle and weak, but she's actually a hidden master. After all, not many players would dare to bomb a school in a three-star dungeon, be chased by everyone, and emerge unscathed, accompanied by a boyfriend...

This is a true master!

Seeing Nanxi basically means this dungeon is a sure thing!

"What a coincidence, we meet again." Nanxi waved and greeted her.

The other two people in the group were surprised and suspicious when they heard Nanxi's attitude towards Li An.

They had heard of Boss Li An's reputation.

Why is Boss Li An so proactive towards this beautiful woman, while she's acting so casually...?

Is that correct?

Nanxi gave a brief greeting and then opened the dungeon quest without further hesitation.

[Instance Name: Anning Village]

[Dungeon Difficulty: Three Stars]

[Instance Quest: Find out the truth behind the constant crying sounds in Anning Village at midnight.]

[Instance Duration: Seven Days (You can leave early upon completion of the quest)]

[Instance Introduction: Recently, a post went viral online. The poster claimed to have encountered an extremely terrifying village in the mountains, and of the dozen or so people who went there, only he returned. After this post, many people, seeking thrills, went to search for it, but none of them found the legendary village. Some even doubted that the village existed at all.]

And you, as a college student, made an appointment with your club members to go on an adventure. After searching in the mountains for a day, you finally found the small village you were looking for...

Upon seeing this, Nanxi understood.

The expedition team consisted of eight people, led by a fat man named Zhang Biao.

The blonde girl and the boy are a couple named Gao Ting and Zhu Junwen.

Besides Nanxi and Li'an, the remaining people consisted of two women and one man, named Li Na, Ge Mei, and Wang Zhuangzhuang.

As darkness was approaching, Zhang Biao no longer hesitated and headed straight for the village: "Let's go, now that we're here, let's go in quickly."

There weren't many people in the village to begin with.

As they entered the village in a grand procession, they immediately attracted the attention of many people. As soon as they entered the village, they were surrounded by more than a dozen dark-skinned middle-aged men, who waited for an old man to slowly walk over.

The old man was hunched over, his hands behind his back. His thin face had prominent cheekbones, and his eyes were covered with layers of eyelids, so that only a glint of light could be seen in his eyes.

"You children are here to...?"

The old man had barely uttered the question when...

Zhang Biao, already looking at the information in the post on his phone, excitedly looked up: "I know, you're the village chief of this village, right!"

The post contains a lot of detailed information.

For example, some of the taboos and customs of the village, and the village chief.

The village chief holds a high position in the village, and everyone listens to his words.

"We're a few college students from nearby, here for a visit. Do you think we could stay in the village for a few days?" Zhang Biao said, handing the village chief a wad of cash.

This step was also taught to them in a forum post.

This allows you to successfully settle into the village, marking the first step in your adventure.

The village chief didn't take the money. Instead, he gave a cryptic smile that was both sinister and eerie: "Are you sure you want to stay here for a few days?"
