Shen Zhiyi sat for a while, then got up, patted her bottom, and planned to continue walking inside.
Bamboo shoots are everywhere in the bamboo forest. Judging from how the white peacocks were eating bamboo shoots, they probably never thought about eating bamboo shoots before.
As she walked, Shen Zhiyi noticed some unusual bamboo shoots on the ground.
White bamboo shoots.
Shen Zhiyi checked the attributes.
【White Jade Bamboo Shoots: Bamboo shoots unique to the Peacock Forest. Consuming them increases a random attribute by one point, with a maximum of five attribute points.】
Wow, these white jade bamboo shoots look much better than the ones they just dug up.
Shen Zhiyi's hands began to stir again.
They immediately dug out the white jade bamboo shoots.
The white jade bamboo shoots are entirely white, resembling a piece of white jade, which is quite pleasing.
However, there seemed to be not many white jade bamboo shoots. Shen Zhiyi and Chen Peng searched around and only managed to dig up seven or eight.
Shen Zhiyi also fed two to the white peacock as a small bribe.
After all, we're digging bamboo shoots in someone else's bamboo forest.
"Eek~"
A small, black and white ball of fluff ran over.
It's a panda!
Shen Zhiyi's eyes lit up, her gaze fixed on the little dumpling.
I really want to pet it.
Chen Peng also saw the little dumpling and wanted to pet it, but the little dumpling seemed very wary of them.
The little dumpling clung to the white peacock, its small eyes watching Shen Zhiyi and the others warily.
"Eek~"
"Ah—" the peacock cried out, and the little dumpling reluctantly let go of the peacock's little claws.
"Waaah~" The little dumpling's voice sounded a bit aggrieved.
The white peacock wasn't going to tolerate it and turned away immediately.
"Aww~" The little dumpling got anxious when it saw the white peacock leave, and quickly followed after it with its short legs.
Shen Zhiyi and Chen Peng exchanged a glance, both seeing the confusion in each other's eyes.
What's going on?
However, this was just a minor incident.
The two continued walking through the bamboo forest, and soon they were carrying several treasure chests.
However, the white peacock and the little dumpling were not seen again.
Suddenly, a crackling sound of electricity came from the air.
“Sizzle—sizzle—”
But it stopped after a while, as if they were hallucinating.
Shen Zhiyi looked up at the sky, puzzled, but still couldn't figure it out.
After standing there for a while and the electrical noise stopped, they decided to continue walking.
The bamboo forest was very large, and many small animals lived there. Along the way, Shen Zhiyi saw quite a few star beasts.
The star beasts are not afraid of people. When they see humans, they curiously approach them and tilt their heads to look at them.
Some of the bolder ones ran up to Shen Zhiyi and tried to pull down her pants. At this point, Shen Zhiyi would squat down and touch them.
When the other star beasts saw this, they also ran up to touch it.
Seeing Shen Zhiyi surrounded by star beasts, Chen Peng sighed and thought, "I want to touch those furry things too, how can you not let me?"
Oh, I forgot to mention, the giant python left when Shen Zhiyi and the others entered the Peacock Forest.
Shen Zhiyi asked it where it was going, but the giant python ignored her and left on its own, probably returning to the swamp.
Then, the electrical hum reappeared.
"...There is...balance!...Please..."
"No... sizzle... sizzle... stop..."
"Is something going to go wrong?" Shen Zhiyi frowned. The system had never encountered such a situation before, and it shouldn't be happening.
Chen Peng also sensed something was wrong. "Could it be that there's something wrong with the system?"
A thought suddenly popped into Shen Zhiyi's mind, and her eyes widened. "Could it be that something went wrong with the system and it needs to send us back to Nebula first?"
Chen Peng gasped, "If that's really the case..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Zhiyi had already rushed into the bamboo forest.
"What are you waiting for? Cut down the bamboo!"
Chen Peng was stunned for a moment, then quickly took out an axe to chop the bamboo.
Even if they're to be sent back, they'll have to squeeze out another wave of benefits first.
Although it's still uncertain whether the system has malfunctioned, it's better to be safe than sorry.
First, take advantage of the system's benefits. If nothing happens to the system, great. Even if you get sent back, you won't lose anything.
Two people, Kuku and Kuku, were cutting down trees in the bamboo forest.
The noise startled the animals living in the bamboo forest. The white peacock that had left earlier came back after hearing the noise.
Seeing that it was Shen Zhiyi and the others, they stopped paying attention and let them cut the bamboo.
But Shen Zhiyi had a bad feeling, as if something was about to happen.
Open the panel and leave a message for Sangsang, telling her to hurry up and take advantage of the deals.
I also glanced at the discussion area.
They were already chatting in the discussion area.
【Seventh Galaxy Communication Zone (/)】
"Hey, what was that crackling sound we just heard? Is there a system malfunction?"
"A malfunction? Does that mean we can go home?"
"Are you dreaming? Even if the system malfunctions, it's not going to be that kind."
"That's right, that's right."
"So what's going on?"
"Let's not talk about that now. Have you heard? Scarface is dead!"
"What? Really? He's really dead?"
"It's true, their profile pictures are all grayed out!"
"Good heavens! Which hero took down Scarface? What a righteous man!"
Chen Yu and his group also took the opportunity to slip away and fish in troubled waters.
"Hahaha, all I can say is that Scarface got his just desserts!"
"He deserves it! Let him bully girls every day!"
"The person upstairs seems to know something inside. Want to share?"
