Chapter 45 Let’s go tell on the secret

Perhaps because Si Yin was particularly easy to talk to, the other party suddenly became bolder and simply walked over, trying to please the other party very carefully.

"I don't mean to say anything bad about you. My name is Xiaolan, Siyin, I know you. You are very popular in the red light district.

And you're the calmest of us all.

But you also saw along the way that many sisters stepped into traps, but fortunately their lives were not in danger and they were all rescued.

What if the next thing you step on is something else?

I just think that sacrificing one person is better than sacrificing everyone.

Someone has to go out.”

As she spoke, she squeezed out two more tears, which made Si Yin confused.

"Everyone wants to get out, so who do you think should be sacrificed?"

Si Yin continued to ask with interest, wanting to see what this little girl pretending to be pitiful was going to do.

The other party seemed to be waiting for Si Yin to ask this, and now he walked forward hesitantly.

"Sisters, we have all seen clearly along the way that Si Yin is the best among us, both in terms of brains and actions.

He has quick reaction ability and knows a lot.

We all followed her footsteps and formed a long line, with everyone grabbing the clothes of the person in front of them, so as to reduce the probability of triggering the trap.

What do you think?

When she made this suggestion, others nodded.

Indeed, along the way, many people huddled together, but ran around everywhere behind, and then triggered the trap.

If you just follow Si Yin's footsteps, it will indeed be much better.

Hearing this, Si Yin smiled.

It turns out that taking advantage of her wasn't enough, and they wanted her to be a human shield for them?

Si Yin did not refute, but just added a sentence.

"Let me do all the hard work, and you guys follow me? Every hour, one person takes a turn to lead the way. You want to follow me and take advantage of me, but I don't owe you anything."

When the crowd, who were originally in high spirits, heard Si Yin say this, the smiles on their faces immediately disappeared.

I originally thought Si Yin was a pushover.

But now it seems that this is not the case.

Xiaolan smiled. "But we, we are not as smart as you, nor as capable as you. We lead the way, but we don't even know where to go."

"Yes, yes, you have been able to turn danger into safety along the way. If we were the ones leading the way, I'm afraid we would be completely wiped out."

When people face a crisis, their selfish and ugly faces are fully exposed.

Si Yin looked at these people and smiled.

"Okay, I can lead the way, but one of you needs to be responsible for observing the way and seeing if there are any edible fruits or the like, and try to collect as many resources as possible.

Don’t think that I, Si Yin, am a good person.

We are all in danger together. Since you have seen my abilities, you should know that there is at least a glimmer of hope if you follow me.

But I have no obligation to help a loser who does nothing but protects others.

If you don’t believe me, just give it a try.”

After this warning, no one else dared to say anything.

Si Yin found a long wooden stick and walked in front, while the others lined up one after another.

After this warning, they really didn't dare to just hide in the back. They worked hard to collect resources along the way. When they saw some fruits or something, they collected them, took off their coats, wrapped them up and carried them on their backs.

Night falls.

It was completely dark and there was some movement in the woods.

Si Yin walked all the way and finally saw a small space formed by low rocks under a hill.

She glanced at the woman behind her who looked exhausted and simply pointed.

"Just go ahead and light the fire first. It's more dangerous at night, so you'd better be careful."

Hearing that they could rest now, everyone else breathed a sigh of relief and ran over excitedly.

The moonlight is very bright today, otherwise it would be impossible to walk.

Si Yin had been walking down the stream. There was definitely no problem with this direction. However, she didn't know how big the mountain was, and there were some unknown dangers.

"Si Yin, how can we start a fire if we don't have anything?"

"Drill two sticks together to make fire."

Si Yin answered calmly, standing by and observing the surroundings for any signs of other animals.

She should really be thankful that she used to love reading all kinds of extracurricular books and knew a little about outdoor survival. If there was fresh feces from other animals nearby, then she would definitely not stay in this place.

When she checked around and came back, she found several people sitting on the ground, motionless.

"What are you doing?"

"Si Yin, how do we make fire by rubbing two sticks together? None of us know how."

Xiaolan spoke first. She sat on the ground and kept rubbing her calves, trying to pin her hopes on Si Yin.

Si Yin walked over and began to demonstrate in front of everyone.

"Just keep turning it like this, and if there's any sparks, immediately light it with some wool."

After she finished speaking, she handed the thing to the person in front of her.

Others did not dare to resist and could only do as they pleased.

Si Yin ignored them and continued to walk around.

After she walked away, the others rubbed their blistered palms. "Why is she so arrogant? She was directing us all the way, wasn't she just leading the way?

My hands are almost swollen, what should I do?

Why doesn’t she do anything?”

After walking for an entire afternoon, these people were tired and hungry. Now they had to make a fire, but they were full of grievances.

In their eyes, Si Yin just acted like the boss and was lazy, leaving them to do the work.

"Okay, stop talking.

I have to say that Si Yin is very capable and he took us along the way without us encountering any danger.

Moreover, she knew a lot at first glance.

If we follow her, maybe we can really get out, and as long as we get out, we can survive."

Xiaolan hurried to comfort them, but everyone became even more unhappy when they heard this.

"We are all on the same journey, so we should unite and help each other. She is very capable, but we have also collected a lot of things along the way.

Didn’t we carry all this firewood and fruits here?

Since she knows how to live, she should do it herself.

Besides, I was wrongly accused. I have no idea who took those things. If you ask me, she is the one who should be most suspicious."

"That's right, everyone knows about Chu Yun's death, but I heard that it has something to do with Si Yin.

Si Yin also went to find A Qiang.

There might be some secret behind this, like an undercover agent or something. I really suspect it's her.

I've never seen a newcomer so powerful right after he arrived. Not only did he replace Chu Yun, but Chu Yun also died inexplicably..."

Everyone nodded, then looked at each other knowingly.

There was silence for a moment.

Suddenly someone made a suggestion.

"Let's go tell on them."
