"In this level, there are only 2,500 places, and half of the players must be eliminated."

Zhang Xiangyang's words were undoubtedly a bomb that bombarded the hearts of all the players, making them unable to calm down for a long time.

No way? So many people have to be eliminated in the first level?

Seeing the chatter among the crowd below, Zhang Xiangyang pressed his hands and motioned for everyone to quiet down, "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet, please listen to me."

The contestants then ended their discussion and looked at Zhang Xiangyang above, listening carefully.

Zhang Xiangyang said: "The theme of this round of competition is..."

The more I wanted to know what the theme was, but Zhang Xiangyang deliberately titillated people's appetites. This made all the contestants so anxious that they were about to bleed.

"Treasure hunt!"

When everyone was about to go crazy waiting, Commander Zhang stopped being naughty and said the most important words.

Most people are very excited. For them, treasure hunting is a very common thing, as long as they have a map and clues.

A small number of people are confused. They feel that things are not that simple.

Zhang Xiangyang elaborated: "This competition is a treasure hunt. As for what the treasure is, it depends on how everyone guesses it. There are 2,500 kinds of treasures, and each treasure will have a clue, and the clues for each treasure are different."

Each clue is divided into two identical parts. A clue can only be owned by two players. Whoever finds the corresponding treasure according to the clue first will pass the level. The one who did not find it will unfortunately be eliminated. If these two players master the clue, they will be eliminated.

Contestants with the same clues who find treasures at the same time can be promoted together. If they fail to find them, they will be eliminated. All treasures are hidden outside the palace. As long as it is within the scope of Tiandu, no matter which corner, there may be something you are looking for.

The treasure. After you draw lots and get the clues, you can go out to hunt for treasures. The game will end at midnight tonight. I hope everyone will work hard and complete the game before midnight."

"The sky is so big, and you don't know where the treasures are hidden. This is undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack." An unknown player complained.

Zhang Xiangyang heard this and his face darkened, "Yes, the capital is indeed very big. This treasure hunt is undoubtedly like finding a needle in a haystack, but everyone, this is the time to test your abilities. If the competition is too simple, will it be your turn to be the Ouchi bodyguard?

?”

Now, no one has any objections. Also, how can the Ouchi guard be easily accepted?

The lottery is done in a queue, because all the clues are scrambled, and no one knows who has the same clue as whom.

After the lot was drawn, the contestants who knew each other happily told each other, and the Nangong Gate was also opened. Many contestants ran out of the palace in order to try to find the treasure at the front.

In the blink of an eye, there were very few players left in the square.

Tang Lin ran up to face Yu Shengjun and said reluctantly: "Junjun, I'm leaving. I may not come back until midnight today. Do you know that you have to have lunch and dinner on time?"

It has been a year since she came back from modern times, and this is the first time she has left the palace. During this year, no matter how busy he is, he will have lunch and dinner with her every day. This habit will change from today on, and she is somewhat

Reluctant to give up and unable to adapt.

He gently helped her straighten her somewhat uneven collar, his eyes full of love, "Be careful when you go out, and don't forget to bring more money, otherwise you won't be able to pay the bill when you get hungry."

He said this as if he was parting from life or death, which made her eyes heat up. She deliberately said carelessly to cover up her sourness, "I know, if you don't remind me, I will get more money instead of free money."

If you don’t take it, you have a treasury anyway!”

He gently held her little face, kissed her on the forehead, and then let go of her, "Go ahead, let others get the treasure if it's too late. Let's see how you, the empress of the world, will step down!"

Yes, it is important to find treasures. Who knows if it is Wang Ye and others who got the same clues. Their abilities are not ordinary.

"Then I'm leaving. Goodbye, Jun!"

After hurriedly descending a few steps of stone steps, Tang Lin suddenly turned her head and showed a very proud smile to Yu Shengjun, "Junjun, you have been doing this for a year, and you are going to make an exception today, hahaha!"

Tang Lin's laughter was too loud, and it was also extremely clear and sweet, and it could be heard in the empty Nangong Square.

Yu Shengjun looked at the cheerful figure running towards the palace gate, and the corner of his mouth curled up with a meaningful arc...

Walking out of the palace gate and taking a deep breath, the air outside the palace is different and smells particularly refreshing.

Tang Lin suddenly felt much more refreshed, her mind was extra calm, and her thoughts were extra clear. She opened the clues she had drawn and took a look.

The clue she drew was a white handkerchief with a sentence embroidered in black thread: Today is next year.

"Huh?" Tang Lin frowned slightly, "Today next year? What do you mean?"

After thinking for a while to no avail, Tang Lin put away the handkerchief and said, "Forget it, let's think about it when we get to the street."

"Sister-in-law, you haven't left yet." Yu Chengyun's slightly conspiratorial voice came over.

Tang Lin turned around and was greeted by Yu Chengyun and Yu Lingyan, "Why did you come out?"

Yu Lingyan explained, "I didn't bring any silver. I just went back to Zilin Courtyard with Chengyun to get it."

"Oops." When it came to the silver, Tang Lin suddenly woke up and said, "I forgot about it too." What a sin. Just now, Yu Shengjun reminded himself to bring more silver, but as soon as he turned around, he forgot about it.

"Sister-in-law, why don't you go back and get it now?"

"Okay... hmm?"

Tang Lin was about to leave, but something suddenly occurred to her. She frowned and looked at Yu Chengyun with suspicious eyes, "There is a conspiracy. Are you trying to drag me down so that I can't find the treasure?"

The eyes of Yu Chengyun and Yu Chengyun were blank for a while, yes, that was what they meant. Their clues had been entrusted to the second brother and others to find the treasure, and their mission was to stay and hold back the emperor's wife.

The sister-in-law is the biggest threat to the first place in the selection, and the emperor's sister-in-law must be eliminated first.

"No way, the emperor's sister-in-law, the emperor's sister-in-law is too worried." Yu Chengyun quickly cleared away his guilty conscience and replied frankly.

"Since there is no such thing, let's split up and look for clues now!"

After that, Tang Lin turned around and left. After walking a few steps, she realized there were two followers behind her. She turned around and asked in confusion: "Why are you following me? Go find your treasure!"

Yu Chengyun smiled, his smile was very stiff, and it looked like he was perfunctory. "Sister-in-law, let us follow you, maybe our treasures will appear in the same place!"

"Really?" Tang Lin didn't think much about it, "Okay, let's go look for it together."

After leaving the Imperial City, Tang Lin casually walked around the busy streets, curious about anything new she saw.

Fearing that she would leave his sight, Yu Chengyun and Yu Lingyan followed her closely.

Their intention was so obvious that Tang Lin had discovered it a long time ago. At nearly noon, in order to get rid of these two clingy guys, Tang Lin deliberately went to the most densely populated area of ​​the market, waving to a certain place and shouting,

"Hi Wooden Bowl Picturesque, over here!"

Thinking that Mu Wan and Ru Hua were really there, Yu Chengyun and Yu Lingyan immediately followed Tang Lin's gaze, but wherever they looked, there was no trace of their women at all.

"Oops!" Yu Lingyan froze when he realized that he might have been deceived.

Sure enough, when the two of them looked to the side, Tang Lin was nowhere to be seen.

Tang Lin came to a large house built in a corner of Tiandu, then took out her handkerchief and looked at it, "This should be the right place, right?"

In fact, this is how she understood the clue she got: the handkerchief is white, with the words "today next year" embroidered on it. As the saying goes, "today next year will be the day you die", so the white handkerchief and the words are connected.

Is it 'There is a funeral in the White House today'?

She wasn't sure if she understood the clue so well, but she should act on it.

After getting rid of Yu Chengyun and Yu Lingyan, she asked others to ask which family with the surname Bai in Tiandu was having a funeral today. It didn't take long before she got the exact clue.

No, she found the Bai Mansion.

Regarding the handkerchief, she also found another clue. The fabric of this handkerchief is only produced in the Baifu workshop, which explains why the Guard Department sewed the clues on the handkerchief instead of writing it on white paper.

This is to remind the players that the treasure is hidden in the White House.

A funeral was being held in the White Mansion, and many relatives and friends of the White Mansion came to pay their respects.

As one of the worshippers, Tang Lin went to the Bai Mansion to kowtow three times to the deceased with a heavy heart, and comforted the family of the deceased with a few words before leaving the hall.

In the courtyard, an imperial guard greeted her, "Miss Tang, congratulations on passing the customs."

I still thought about walking around the White Mansion a few times to find treasures. Although it was a bit disrespectful to the deceased, I didn't expect the Ouchi guards to ambush here long ago.

Tang Lin looked at the Ouchi guard and was a little dumbfounded, "Isn't the treasure yours?"

The guard explained: "When the contestants draw lots, the guards and the guards must identify the two contestants who have the same clues, and then wait at the treasure hiding place. As long as the contestants show up at the treasure hiding place, we will show up."

"There is only one treasure, and I cleared the level..." Tang Lin analyzed this and looked at the guard in surprise, "Am I the first to find this treasure? The other person hasn't come yet?"

The guard respectfully replied: "Yes, Miss Tang."

Tang Lin frowned and smiled bitterly. She seemed to have won easily, right?

"Miss Tang, my subordinates are going back to report on Miss Tang's customs clearance. Will Miss Tang return to the palace now?"

"No, you go back and report first. I'll go back later."

"OK."

"Wait a minute." After the guard walked a few steps, Tang Lin suddenly stopped him, then ran up and asked, "Do you have any money with you?"

The guard hurriedly touched his arms, but he couldn't find the silver after several times. Finally, he looked at Tang Lin in embarrassment and said, "I forgot to bring it."

"It doesn't matter, you can go back." It seems that today's lunch must be done at Jundiexuan. It just so happens that we can also see those old guys.

Not long after leaving the White House, at the corner of a house, a woman almost bumped into Tang Lin.

"Oh," Tang Lin dodges quickly and takes two or three steps back. When she sees the woman clearly, she suddenly smiles, "Shihe?"
