A little squirrel lay on the edge of the stream, touched the water surface with its two furry front paws, then lowered its head to take a sip.

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from far and near, it turned around and ran, and rushed up to a big tree next to it at that unusual speed.

Xu Shu walked to the water's edge, picked up the water and washed his face, looked up at the little squirrel on the branch next to him, tilting his head to look at him, and waved at it.

The squirrel disappeared between the leaves in a flash.

He sighed, turned around and found a big tree nearby to climb up to prepare to rest.

The branches of this tree are slanted upwards, so it is not very suitable for sleeping. It should be said that there is no suitable tree around here.

But precisely because there is no suitable one, it is safe enough here.

It has been several days since the game started, maybe some players have already formed a team.And now he is acting alone, so he has to be more careful.

It quickly became dark in the dense forest. He sat on a thick branch, touched the red rope on his wrist, and frowned.

I can't figure it out, I still can't figure it out.

Game props are originally there to reduce the difficulty of the game, and it is impossible for them to be invalidated so easily because they are contrary to the content of the game.

As for Ji Chuan, there was something that had to be suspected.

Even though he was kind of weird...

Xu Shu stretched his neck, stretched out his hand and squeezed the space between his eyebrows.

He still has the golden finger of the pen in his hand, but he already knew it in the previous game, and the content written by this thing can't reduce the difficulty of the game at all.

So it is as if it does not exist, and there is no need to worry about it at all.

At present, he still can only think back on the events of the past few days, and find clues to prove or overthrow his thoughts.

First of all, he was very concerned about Qi Miao and Li Xiaoyun's affairs.

Qi Miao's body did not appear in front of the suspicious point of the player's backpack. In fact, it can only be regarded as his own guess. After all, the other party has never personally said that he has props.And after that, his piece of paper didn't disappear.

However, even if this is all right, what about Li Xiaoyun's disappearing blank paper?

The thing in hand disappeared out of thin air, which can only show that Li Xiaoyun is 100% a ghost.

So, even if Qi Miao, a player, can't find Xu Shu and Ji Chuan's stalking, it's impossible for a ghost to miss it, right?

If you were a ghost, would you kill Qi Miao knowing that there were other players?

This is not the same as telling the two people following: Yes, this is the taboo.

So the situation at that time proved that the taboo was not "killing other players".

If not, what could it be?

Although Xu Shu still felt that something was wrong, from the existence and disappearance of the paper, Qi Miao seemed to be really a player.

but……

He took out the three blank papers in his bag and thought to himself, the question came back again.

The rules of the quest look like they're going to have the players kill each other, so there's a piece of paper placed on each person for them to fight over.

But unfortunately, the game scattered the players and teleported them in such a large dense forest, as if they didn't want everyone to encounter them.

Previously, Xu Shu thought that the taboo was to kill other players, so there was such a setting.

But what happened to Li Xiaoyun overturned his guess.

He thought, this contradictory point is like a boulder blocked near the exit.If it can be smashed, the exit is close at hand.

His fingers rubbed the white paper a few times - now he has three in his hand, Ji Chuan has two in his hand, and there are still four.

And the other players still don't know where they are.

If other teams have already killed others, or someone has triggered a taboo and died in a hidden place that no one has ever been to, or if someone thinks he is doomed and destroys the paper before dying, then this big paper Will it never fit together?

Will the game arrange such uncertain factors for them?

Xu Shu lowered his head and stared at the three stacked white papers in the dim environment.

Although it was dark, the white paper was still visible.

It is like snow in the eastern night, white and spotless.

He just looked at it like this, and suddenly thought of a very important question - the rules of the game never said that these papers are useful!

At the beginning, he thought the white paper in the backpack was very important because there were jagged marks on both sides of the paper after being torn. He felt that there were other parts in the hands of other players.

The rule of three people can survive, so he immediately determined that this was deliberately leading them to fight and rob each other.

Xu Shu believes that after entering the game, other players will definitely have the same thoughts as him when they see the blank paper in their backpacks.

But... what if the paper itself is a means to deceive the player?

The rules of the game did not say that they should compete with each other, nor did they say what the use of these papers were, and what was given to them was just blank paper as white as snow!

Xu Shu straightened up, frowned and thought, if these papers are really useless, and the players scattered all over the dense forest have also explained that the game doesn't want them to fight each other...

So what is the real content of this game?

phantom?

Is it an illusion?

and many more……

Xu Shu took two deep breaths, calmed down, and continued to think, what if this game is not a battle between players and players, but between players and illusions?

What if——he had been in the hallucination all along?

No matter which Ji Chuan it is, whether it is Qi Miao or Li Xiaoyun, or the man in green after that, what if they are all fake?

He might not even be in any dense forest at all.

However, the hand strap still doesn't make sense.

It had indeed danced, and was it not even true?

No... there must be something wrong.

Xu Shu scratched his hair, propped his chin with both hands, lowered his head and closed his eyes, thinking slowly and carefully in the darkness.

He felt that it was only a little bit close, and he could completely figure it out immediately.

At this moment, a light sound suddenly came from under the tree.

Although there is only a very light and short click, it is very clear in a quiet environment.

Even, it can be heard as footsteps.

Xu Shu immediately opened his eyes and took out his weapon, looking at the pitch-black ground with great vigilance.

He carefully reached out to take out the phone, and then quietly waited.

Time seemed to have stood still, and after an unknown amount of time, another soft sound came.

This time the sound was a little farther away.

Xu Shu quickly turned on the flashlight function, raised the phone and pointed it in that direction from afar.

Because the distance from the tree to the ground is already a bit far, and there are branches blocking it, the light is very dim after it shines through.

But even so, he still vaguely saw a black figure.

Then he was slightly taken aback.

He was so familiar with this figure that he recognized it at a glance—it was Ji Chuan.

The tall, thin and slender figure stopped there, paused for a moment, then turned around and looked in the direction of the light.

Because there was a light source here, he raised his left arm to block it, revealing the sickle in his hand.

He didn't speak, and Xu Shu didn't move.

After a while, a sentence finally came from over there: "I don't want to leave you alone."

Xu Shu almost believed that he was a fake.

At the critical moment when he was about to figure out the game, he suddenly appeared. Could it be that he came to stop him because he felt something?

After a brief hesitation, Xu Shu chose not to expose it for the time being.

Since the taboo wasn't killing other players, it might also be revealing the ghost's true identity, so he didn't dare to take risks casually.

He took the phone back and bit it in his mouth, used it to illuminate, quickly climbed down the big tree with hands and feet, and walked towards Ji Chuan.

Ji Chuan also came over, with his head slightly lowered, his expression unclear.

Xu Shu put away the phone and asked, "What's the matter? I'm not afraid, but you are?"

After losing the light source, the surroundings were so dark that he could barely see his fingers. He felt a little unsafe, so he quickly took out his phone and turned on the flashlight again.

The moment the light shone on Ji Chuan, Xu Shu saw him turn his head and say, "I'm worried about you, and I've been following you quietly."

His expression looked weird, as if he felt embarrassed and had to force himself to be calm.

Xu Shu's heart suddenly moved.

Damn it, if only Ji Chuan was this cute.

Fake, this is [-]% fake!

and many more……

Wasn't the scene just now similar to the first time he met this Ji Chuan?

At that time, he was staying on the tree, the purpose was to get rid of that obvious fake Ji Chuan.

At that moment, a woman with ponytail and injured foot passed by under the tree, and then Ji Chuan appeared.

When he appeared with a hare in his hand, he came from a different direction from Fake Ji Chuan.

Because at that time Xu Shu was a little nervous, and all his attention was on not being discovered by the fake Ji Chuan.So it wasn't until he got down from the tree to talk to Ji Chuan that he noticed that the red string on his wrist hadn't been pulled since.

That's why he never doubted the person in front of him.

but--

Xu Shu felt that he seemed to have figured out the most critical point.

The reason why the red rope stopped moving was because the real Ji Chuan did pass by him at that time!But that Ji Chuan is not the one in front of him!

It was because of the illusion... the illusion turned the real Ji Chuan into a lame woman with a ponytail in his eyes!

It must be so, and only then can it be explained.

Maybe the players are all in the same illusion, but they are all trapped in a separate illusion. No one will meet anyone. All encounters are calculated by the game!

Or maybe, everyone is in a different illusion, but because Xu Shu and Ji Chuan have a special relationship with props, a connection point is set between the two illusions, making this key prop invalid!

Regardless of the possibility, Xu Shu has already confirmed that he and the real Ji Chuan have long missed each other, and probably won't meet again until the game is over.
