Zhang Yang had played some escape room puzzle games on his mobile phone before, so he had some understanding of this type of puzzle.

He pointed at the numbers and then tapped the sentence: "These numbers should be related to this sentence. Arrange these six numbers according to this sentence, and that is the password to open the door."

"Then how should they be connected?" Xia Xueqi couldn't figure out what the connection was between these numbers and that sentence. She was completely confused.

"The first thing is to determine the connection between this sentence and the number. Look at these words in this sentence. What characteristics do they have?"

Xia Xueqi frowned and asked, "Should we interpret it from the connotation of this sentence?"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "You're overthinking it. This is just the first level. The puzzle won't be too complicated. If I'm not mistaken, the answer should be found from the strokes."

"Ah? It's that simple? Wait, let me see." Xia Xueqi gestured to the two sentences.

She frowned again quickly: "That's not right. The character 'round' in the first half of the sentence has ten strokes, and the character 'speed' in the second half of the sentence also has ten strokes. I can't find the corresponding number. Could it be that you are thinking in the wrong direction?"

Zhang Yang hooked his finger and tapped her head lightly, causing Xia Xueqi to shrink her head.

He pointed at the sentence and said, “Look, there are eight characters in two sentences, but only six numbers. In order for us to make sure that the puzzle is solved by the strokes of the characters, these two characters with ten strokes are the clues.

Excluding these two words, the remaining words are:

The character for "moon" has four strokes, corresponding to the number 4; the character for "zhi" has two strokes, corresponding to the number 2;

The eight strokes of the character "夜" correspond to the number 8; the seven strokes of the character "心" correspond to the number 4;

The character zhi has six strokes, corresponding to the number 6; the character zhong has nine strokes, corresponding to the number 9;

The final result is that this is the password to open the door."

Xia Xueqi's eyes sparkled, and she looked at Zhang Yang with even more admiration: "Your Majesty, you are amazing. You cracked such a complicated password. Look, no one has entered the next level yet."

Zhang Yang looked at the two doors and said, "My dear, let's hurry up. Didn't we say that the first group to pass the level will get a prize? You can choose which area to go to next."

Xia Xueqi felt very happy when she heard the word "My beloved concubine".

However, she looked at the "ward area" and then the "outpatient area", both areas were illuminated by a gloomy green light, and it looked like either one would be very scary.

She said timidly, "What if I choose the wrong one?"

Zhang Yang reached out and touched her head and said, "Girls who love to laugh are lucky. You love to laugh so much, so we can't go wrong if we follow you."

"Really?" Hearing Zhang Yang's words, her eyes smiled into a pair of crescent moons: "If I have to choose, I'll choose the ward area. There are doctors in the outpatient area, and I think it might be even scarier."

"Okay, then I'll listen to you. Let's go to the ward area and enter the password." Zhang Yang pulled Xia Xueqi to the password door.

Xia Xueqi stretched out her slender jade fingers and entered the password she had just obtained: "", the password was indeed correct.

The entire perimeter of the door lit up with green light, and at the same time a gloomy and low voice sounded: "Only two people can pass through at a time."

The others who were still searching for clues in the hall looked at them with envy. They didn't expect that they could pass the level so quickly.

The two men walked through the gate with trepidation. Just as they entered the ward area, the door behind them closed quickly, isolating them from the hall.

Walking into the new scene, the dark green lights around me flashed again, and a pungent smell of disinfectant filled the air.

What appeared before them was a short corridor with two wards on each side. At the end of the corridor was a code door leading to the next scene.

There are some geometric graffiti painted on the walls of the corridor, including triangles, squares, circles, etc. These graffiti emit green fluorescence on the dark walls and look extremely weird.

The space here is small, and the inexplicable sense of oppression is even stronger than before. Xia Xueqi rubbed her arms on both sides and frowned, "Zhang Yang, are you sure my choice is correct?"

Zhang Yang said with a relaxed look: "As long as it is your choice, it must be correct. It seems that the passcode should be found in the ward. Let's go in and take a look."

There were other people in the hall just now, and there were voices of other people talking from time to time, but now there were only the two of them.

Once the door to the hall was closed, the sounds from outside were completely isolated from here. The surroundings were eerily quiet, and the terrifying feeling of loneliness became even more obvious.

Xia Xueqi wanted to hold Zhang Yang back, but he had already started walking towards the ward, so she could only hurry up and follow him. In such a creepy place, she didn't dare to be alone for a moment.

She had only taken a few steps and had not yet reached the ward when she heard a "bang" sound from behind. She did not even dare to turn her head, but threw herself directly into Zhang Yang's arms, trembling and said, "Zhang... Zhang Yang, is there a ghost behind us?"

Zhang Yang turned his head and looked behind. He gently stroked her back and said, "Silly girl, look, it's just an LED light that fell off."

Xia Xueqi shivered and looked back. Sure enough, it was just an LED lamp that had fallen halfway to the ground, with a wire still connected to the other end.

Seeing that it was just a light, she stroked her chest which was rising and falling and finally breathed a sigh of relief. She began to regret her plan a little.

Originally, she wanted to scare Zhang Yang so that he would add to his feelings for her.

But she didn't expect that from the time she came in until now, Zhang Yang acted as if nothing had happened, while she herself was frightened out of her wits.

She didn't know whether Zhang Yang's feelings for her had deepened or not, but it seemed that she was becoming more and more dependent on him.

Zhang Yang took her into the ward, and their eyes were attracted by the two beds inside.

Both beds were covered with white cloth, under which were two protruding human figures. This place looked more like a morgue than a ward.

This creepy scene made Xia Xueqi feel awkward whether to go in or not.

If she went in, she was afraid that someone would suddenly get up from the bed. If she didn't go in, Zhang Yang would go in to look for clues. She didn't want to be away from him, and she would feel even more insecure standing alone at the door.

As a professional bootlicker, Zhang Yang could see the dilemma his client was in. He said to Xia Xueqi, "How about you wait at the door and I'll come out after I finish looking for clues inside."

He had just taken a step when Xia Xueqi immediately grabbed his clothes and said, "No, I'd better go in with you. What if there's a ghost in the corridor?"

Zhang Yang thought that this little sister was really cute. She was clearly going to a haunted house, but she was scared to death.

He held her hand and said, "I'll hold your hand. You won't be scared this way, right?" "Thanks to Meng Meng Meng, the salt-baked chicken, the stars from Tianya, and the rewards from Tianshangrenjian!"
