Chapter 261 Little Red Riding Hood 1
——Mushroom Forest
Yi Li's eyes fell on the childlike signpost. He took out the brown paper map and looked at the road. Well, he arrived at the first place.
Yi Li first studied the road sign carefully and found a line of small characters engraved in the lower right corner of the sign.
1. Don’t reject the girl picking mushrooms.
2. Don't pick the mushrooms here.
Just as Yi Li was about to write down the rules, he remembered the reminders on the brown paper.
Don't believe in rules other than those on paper.
Don't refuse the little girl picking mushrooms, but she just refused and nothing bad happened.
Don't pick mushrooms here?
So it can be picked now?
Or is it necessary to pick it?
With the mentality of giving it a try, Yili was about to step into the forest when he suddenly remembered the words written on the brown paper: Don't leave the road. But if you want to pick mushrooms, you must leave this road and go into the forest.
Yili thought seriously about it and thought that if he were in this tricky game, he would definitely design some traps in certain places, such as mushrooms.
The first trap is to make you choose to believe the brown paper or the rules outside the brown paper.
The second trap is to ensure the normal operation of the game. Clues are put into the rules, betting that players will not take the risk to pick mushrooms. Even if they want to go, they cannot go in person.
When you are about to go out, you find that you have no mushrooms, or you need the mushrooms here in a certain level.
But who says you have to pick mushrooms yourself?
Isn’t there a ready-made tool?
Yi Li smiled slightly.
She bet that the little girl picking mushrooms would come out in a few minutes.
Yi Li walked in the direction indicated by the sign, and as expected, after walking about ten meters and turning a corner, she saw a little girl with a basket of mushrooms on her back, covered in blood, looking at her.
Just as it was about to lose its temper and show its anger to this woman who dared to reject it, it saw Yili approaching it anxiously: "Are you okay? Where are your companions? I wanted to go call for help, but halfway through, I suddenly realized that it was too late and I got lost again. I didn't expect to see you here."
The little girl picking mushrooms looked at Yi Li, who didn't seem to be pretending. Her gloomy expression immediately returned to the pitiful and helpless one she had when they first met. "Sister, I knew you wouldn't abandon us so cold-bloodedly. I'll take you there right now."
Yi Li nodded, his eyes naturally falling on the basket on the back of the little girl picking mushrooms: "Isn't it heavy for you to carry so many mushrooms? Let me help you carry them, you just lead the way."
The little girl picking mushrooms took a step back cautiously: "No, I can carry it myself. I'd better not trouble you, sister."
Yi Li smiled and said, "What trouble is it? You are still young, and as the elder sister, of course I have to share the burden with my younger sister. Besides, you are the kindest girl I have ever met, and I can't bear to see you suffer so much. I left without explaining everything to you just now, and I feel guilty. Just let me help you."
The little girl picking mushrooms heard this and said: "Do you really want to carry it?"
Yili nodded: "Of course."
The little girl picking mushrooms curled her lips slightly, looking cute and well-behaved: "Okay, this is very heavy."
"Yeah, I know."
Yi Li took the backpack and disappeared in front of the little girl picking mushrooms.
The little girl who was picking mushrooms originally wanted to watch the show, but she fell into a dead silence after looking at the air in front of her.
Where's that person! Where's that person! He just disappeared right in front of me!
It's impossible to say that I'm not angry and furious, and I want to kill that woman.
Yi Li brought the backpack into the space, and fell silent when he saw the trembling black shadow that suddenly appeared in the backpack and looked at him.
No wonder the little girl picking mushrooms was willing to give her basket to me later. It turned out that there was a big hole she had dug for herself in it.
Yi Li looked at the confused and terrified black shadow in front of him with a forced smile. He held a silver dagger in his hand, and the aura it emitted made the black shadow instinctively feel fear.
"Who are you?"
Yi Li's tone was friendly, and it would be better if you ignored the dagger in her hand that was about to be used to play with it.
The black shadow trembled and said nothing.
"If you can't speak, I'll kill you right now."
The black shadow froze.
Yi Li looked at the black shadow who looked at him with horror but didn't say a word: "If you can speak, nod your head, if you can't speak, shake your head."
The black shadow shook his head and looked at Yili with a sincere and timid expression.
"Since you can't speak, there's no point in me keeping you around. I might as well just kill you."
Yi Li's words made the shadow even more terrified. It was a dark shadow, but after hearing Yi Li's words, it gave the illusion of being whiter.
"I will."
The shadow's voice was very slow, as if he had just learned it.
"No, you, want, to, kill, me."
"I don't want to die."
Yi Li looked at him struggling to speak and said, "Don't you know how to speak? Why are you pretending to be mute?"
The black shadow stopped talking, silence was its protective color.
"It's useless for me if you don't answer me. In that case, then I will..."
Before Yi Li could finish his words, he was interrupted by a black shadow.
"No, I'm useless! I'm socially phobic. I don't dare to speak."
The black shadow hurried to prove his worth, fearing that Yili would simply chop him off with a knife and send him to meet the King of Hell.
Yi Li raised an eyebrow: "Really? Then prove it to me. If you lie to me, I can't keep you."
Dark Shadow: "...Okay."
Yili saw the dark figure that was frightened by him and asked: "Are you in the same group with the little girl picking mushrooms?"
"Yeah, yes."
"Am I the first player here?"
"no."
"Where did all the previous players go?"
Yi Li looked at the black shadow.
The shadowy figure left the backpack and pointed at the numerous mushrooms below: "The dead ones are here, and the living ones are gone."
Yi Li looked at the basket of colorful mushrooms. She didn't expect that these mushrooms were actually the dead players.
"What is your purpose?"
The shadow was silent for a few seconds. "Mushrooms are nutritious. We need them. Eating well gives us strength."
Yili understood what the black shadow wanted to express.
These mushrooms are equivalent to a kind of energy food for them. Only by eating these mushrooms can they have strength.
“Do these mushrooms have names?”
"Soul, mushroom."
The black shadow uttered two words.
"They're called Soul Mushrooms?"
"Um."
The shadow looked at her: "Can I not die?"
Yili looked at it with a kind and friendly smile.
