Shi Ling suggested: "Would you like to go further north?"

"Further north?"

Qin Zhen turned around halfway and was about to ask "What are we going to do?" when a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

What he probably means is... go further north and observe with your own eyes the... "cocoon" that the young man mentioned?

Qin Zhen glanced at Chi Yu and Chu Musu. Seeing that neither of them had any reaction, Qin Zhen had to bite the bullet and be the central figure responsible for decision-making in the team: "Is it too dangerous?"

"If you don't want to get close and study it carefully, it should be very safe." Shi Ling's tone seemed gentle, but in fact he was not willing to give in. "We will never be weaker than the villager just now."

"Besides, you don't need three people to do the tracking, right?"

Qin Zhen thought about it and said hesitantly: "Then... one of you will follow the villagers to find Qi Yue and Qi Sheng. The other two will be in a group, so that even if you encounter any danger, you can still communicate with each other. Help me."

Noticing the glances from beside him, Chi Yu turned his head slightly, just in time to look into the other person's dark brown eyes.

She looked away calmly: "I'm going to the north."

The next second, Shi Ling's voice sounded leisurely as she expected: "The reason why I made the proposal just now is that I am more interested in the so-called 'cocoon'."

The implication is that... he is also more inclined to join the team exploring the north of the village.

Qin Zhen frowned.

The combination of Chi Yu and Shi Ling... shouldn't be a problem, right?

She glanced at the young villager who was almost disappearing from sight, then turned to Chu Musu and asked for his opinion.

The latter nodded lightly to her: "Then I will go to the ancestral hall and wait for you."

After finishing his words, his eyes swept over Shi Ling and fell on Chi Yu beside him, and reminded him with a hint, "Be careful."

"We will." Shi Ling replied with a smile.

……

The further north you go, the more desolate your surroundings become.

I don't know if it is because it is vaguely connected to the "back mountain" due east, but the land here has not been reclaimed for growing crops, but has maintained its most primitive appearance.

If he hadn't been able to vaguely see the endless row of houses behind him, Chi Yu would have thought he was walking in the wilderness.

She retracted her gaze and looked around, briefly sorting out her somewhat messy thoughts.

Chi Yu tilted his head: "You and Qi Sheng have been together on Huanshan Mountain for so long, haven't you heard anything about 'Cocoon' from him?"

Hearing this, Shi Ling turned around and said, "We are just partners with the same purpose and consistent interests."

"Although we looked very familiar on Huanshan Mountain, in fact... Qi Sheng is not as nervous as he seems."

Chi Yu agrees with this.

In the Shenyou Village, where there are many crises and one wrong move could lead to everything being lost, to be able to sit in the position of high priest and have good prestige among the villagers... This is not a person who has no brains and can only shout slogans. What passionate young people can do.

"So, he really never mentioned the concept of 'cocoon' to us."

Chi Yu nodded slowly, "The reason...either he and Qi Yue feel that the so-called monster attacks are not the key to cracking the illusion."

"However, under the premise that the danger is already close at hand, and the past few batches of players have failed, even if it is not the focus, they should mention it a little bit."

Do those senior brothers and sisters think that we won't be so unlucky that we just happen to run into this small probability event?

No... they don't seem to be such careless people.

After eliminating all impossibilities, the only truth remains.

Chi Yu calmed down his thoughts: "In other words... the monster attack is a 'special situation' unique to the illusion weaved by the first Wu Zhu?"

"I think so too." Shi Ling raised the corner of his mouth and smiled in agreement, "No matter in reality or in the previous fantasy, Qi Sheng and his junior sister never mentioned the word 'cocoon'."

"And we haven't met the Qi Sheng brothers and sisters in this illusion yet... Unless they really forget it for a moment, 'cocoon' should be a unique concept here."

He sighed, "Maybe... this is the key to breaking the situation?"

You mean, we encountered monsters besieging the city as soon as we came here... No, it was monsters besieging the village. It was not because of bad luck, but because we were favored by the goddess of luck?

Chi Yu slandered.

She skipped the topic that had been agreed upon and asked the real doubt in her heart: "In the room where...Mr. Lu used to worship the gods, you could tell at a glance that the potted flowers were poisonous."

"Is this a characteristic given by 'creation'? Or..."

Chi Yu paused for half a second, "What do you know about the god being worshiped?"

Shi Ling smiled: "You just want to ask this, so you choose to go on an adventure with me?"

Chi Yu could hear the deliberateness and perfunctoryness in his words.

She was silent for a moment: "Yesterday, on the way back, Qi Yi and I met you and Mu Xue."

"Of course, I can't rule out that it was my illusion... But at that time, I felt that you seemed to have an inexplicable concern for me."

"It was the same thing just now." Chi Yu's voice did not fluctuate at all, and he laid out the "arguments" he had observed bit by bit in an unusually calm manner, "It is really important for us to figure out what exactly 'cocoon' is."

"But whether we wait to meet up with He Qing and the others before going together, or let Qi Yue and Qi Sheng lead the team... or even directly ask the latter two for information about 'Cocoon', it will be better than going together with two or four people now. A more reasonable and effective method.”

Qin Zhen was too anxious just now and was overwhelmed by the unexpected incident, so he didn't seize this point to refute.

As for Chu Musu...

To be honest, Chi Yu didn't believe that he didn't see anything, but he didn't understand why he directly agreed to Shi Ling's proposal without saying a word.

...Simply find it troublesome?

Or do you think that even if Shi Ling is a little careful, it will not affect the safety of his teammates and their mission?

What that guy is thinking... is really hard to guess.

At this moment, Chi Yu suddenly resonated with Xia Yanzhou outside the copy.

That's right, with Chu Musu's character, instead of thinking about establishing a good relationship with him and then using his authority to check information about her parents... it would be better to work hard to obtain the corresponding qualifications, which would be faster.

Seeing that she didn't say anything for a long time, Shi Ling smiled and continued: "So?"

Chi Yu came to the conclusion: "You must have seen that I was suspicious of the poisonous weed incident, so you deliberately created this perfect condition for me to be alone with you."
