Xu Jun's expression froze for a moment, and he touched his nose. "Why does it smell? The fruits I've eaten before were all sweet, so I brought them back for you. Or is the fruit you ate not very good?"

Tang Jing finished the fruit in just a few bites and curled her lips. "Some people are used to the taste of meat and can't get used to eating fruit. There are so many things to worry about."

"You don't eat meat?"

Qiao Shu glanced at her, and Tang Jing instantly lost her momentum.

"Hmm, why do I feel a little dizzy?"

"Me, me too."

Yu Keyi and Jiang Yiyao were the first to fall down, and Ye Shaojun, who was already injured, also fainted.

"What's going on? I'm about to faint too."

Lin Yanze rolled his eyes and couldn't hold it any longer.

"Xu Jun, are you trying to trick us?"

Anger flashed in Xu Tingzhou's eyes. He clenched his fists and looked at Xu Jun who was standing upright. After a moment, he fell down as well.

Dear players, we have all accidentally eaten the hallucinogenic fruit.

As these words came to mind, no one was left standing.

Xu Jun sighed helplessly, "Everyone, please don't blame me. I have no choice. I have to complete the mission, right?"

*

When they woke up again, they found themselves in a dilapidated place, surrounded by stone tablets covered with moss, which looked a little scary in the dim light.

"Oh my god, what is this place?"

Lin Yanze was a little confused.

"This should be a place used for sacrifices in ancient times. Although it is dilapidated, it can be seen that people have been burning incense here recently."

Qiao Shu has walked around here several times and has a thorough understanding of the terrain.

"Qiao Shu, have you woken up a long time ago?"

Tang Jing rubbed her eyebrows and asked her suspiciously.

"Well, I'm not as careless as you guys and ate all the fruits, so I woke up earlier than you."

Qiao Shu nodded and pointed in the direction of the corner ahead, "I heard some noise over there and was just about to go check it out."

"I'll go with you."

Xu Tingzhou also followed and frowned slightly, saying, "This guy Xu Jun deliberately designed us to come here. What is his purpose?"

"Just follow the plot and the mission."

Qiao Shu said as a matter of course, "If Aisen hadn't disappeared, I might be on a mission right now."

He kept calling me sister, but now he has disappeared.

"Wait for us."

Jiang Yiyao and the others didn't dare to stay there and followed them closely.

There is a narrow valley at the corner. Walking past it, you will find another world. It turns out to be a larger and more primitive sacrificial altar. There are people tied to two stone pillars. Upon closer inspection, they are familiar people.

"Oh my god, Teacher Hu Wen, Brother Dayong!"

Lin Yanze opened his eyes wide and wanted to save people, but was stopped by Qiao Shu.

"Don't go over there, it's too dangerous."

Qiao Shu narrowed her beautiful eyes and looked coldly ahead. A group of men in black walked out from the darkness. Each of them wore a strange mask on their face. Their dull and empty eyes stared at the person on the altar, as if they were looking at a dead person.

"Isn't this a deserted island? Why are there so many people?"

Lin Yanze was startled and got goosebumps.

"Judging from their attire, they are the indigenous people of the island. We have intruded into their territory."

Qiao Shu looked at Hu Wen and Ding Dayong, shook her head, and said, "It seems a bit difficult to save them. We were brought back by them, and we can hardly save ourselves."

Tang Jing had another bad idea, "What should we do? Give up on them and find another way out?"

Qiao Shu glanced at her with disdain. "How is that possible? Of course we have to save them. Sister Jing, stop talking nonsense. Even though we've split up, we were betrayed by your teammate Xu Jun, and he didn't say he was abandoning you."

Tang Jing's face flushed, and she quickly said, "I was just saying it casually."

Huhahuhahuha!

The indigenous people held long wooden sticks and knocked on the ground again and again, making strange noises.

"What's wrong?"

Jiang Yiyao and Yu Keyi hugged each other, feeling a little timid.

"It's not good. The sacrificial ceremony has begun. We must act quickly."

Qiao Shu went around to the back of the group, looking for a breakthrough. "We can climb up here and go around. I need you to take this opportunity to divert their attention so that I have time to save them."

"Okay, leave it to me."

Xu Tingzhou nodded and immediately ran while shouting loudly.

The sound of the sacrifice stopped, obviously interrupted by Xu Tingzhou's behavior.

Empty eyes turned to them, the leader pointed a wooden stick at them, and a group of people chased after them.

Qiao Shu took advantage of the situation and climbed up the hillside, successfully reaching the altar.

"Teacher Hu Wen, Brother Dayong, how are you?"

Seeing that they were in a state of dejection, Qiao Shu asked while untying them.

"Hey, Qiao... uh, why are you here? It's too dangerous here, please leave quickly. We are two old people with weak bones, and we don't want to get you into trouble."

Hu Wen couldn't even shout out her name. She was so weak that her health bar showed up. Only a quarter was left and she was about to be eliminated.

"Yes, yes, Yurou and Yizhou are locked up, go and rescue them."

Ding Dayong had no strength to walk and almost fell down after stumbling.

"Let's go together."

Qiao Shu pulled them to the bottom of the altar without saying a word. A figure rushed over. Ding Dayong and Hu Wen were so scared that their legs went weak. Before they could say anything, the figure was knocked down by Qiao Shu's punch and could not get up.

Hu Wen and Ding Dayong were stunned. Looking at Qiao Shu's back, they felt that her image suddenly became much taller.

"Qiao Shu, come here quickly."

Jiang Yiyao waved at her from a distance, and soon they met up.

"Lin Yanze and Brother Zhou went to attract the war, and he asked us to leave first."

"Let's find Fang Yurou and Wang Yizhou first, and then we'll look for them later."

"good!"

"No need to look for them, they are in my hands."

As soon as they turned around, they saw Xu Jun and the men in black surrounding them. Fang Yurou and Wang Yizhou had their wrists tied and were being led by the men in black, glaring at Xu Jun with unfriendly expressions.

"Xu Jun! What are you doing? We are teammates, why are you running to their camp?"

Yu Keyi stamped her feet and questioned him angrily.

"Keyi, have you forgotten our mission? I found the NPC, and he gave me a mission. I already have a small piece of the treasure map in my hand."

Xu Jun reluctantly pulled out a small, worn treasure map from his pocket and offered them an olive branch. "Keyi, Sister Jing, you are my teammates. How could I possibly harm you? As long as you join my side, given the current situation, we're sure to win."

As for Ye Shaojun, he was already injured and half of his health bar was gone, but Xu Jun simply ignored it.

"We are indeed teammates, but..."

Yu Keyi was tormented. On one side were the people who saved her, and on the other side were her teammates who had been drawn up at the beginning. She felt a little embarrassed and conflicted.
