Chapter 111 The entire space shook...
After passing through the busiest area, Xu Yi arrived at a deep, gloomy forest.
Little Black Hat's house and Grandma's house are located in different parts of the town, one in the south and the other in the north.
Xu Yi was going to her "grandmother's" house, and it wasn't surprising that she would have to cross the town and encounter other mission takers.
"Little Black Hat, Little Black Hat," someone called to her.
Xu Yi followed the sound but didn't see anyone. Instead, she saw a large black wolf sitting behind a rock.
"Hello, Little Black Hat."
"Hello."
“Dear Little Black Hat, I’m injured. Could you please go into the forest and gather some herbs for me? My leg hurts a lot.”
Xu Yi's gaze fell on the black wolf's leg, which was bleeding, and it was clutching its leg in pain.
Beneath that skin, the black wolf seemed to be opening its mouth, waiting for her to refuse, so it could then conveniently devour Little Black Hat.
Rule 4: If a wolf asks for your help, help it before continuing to deliver food.
As she watched the words flitting past her eyes, Xiang Bei was giving her a hint: these were the rules Xu Yi needed to follow.
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll go gather the herbs for you right away."
Xu Yi went into the forest to gather herbs for the injured black wolf.
Even if she doesn't recognize herbs, she automatically acquires that knowledge when she sees them.
Xu Yi also saw many brightly colored mushrooms in the forest.
It's beautiful and very tempting.
In the depths of this gloomy forest, the sudden appearance of some colorful mushrooms gave one a very strange feeling.
As Xu Yi walked along, all the mission takers who obtained the role cards tried their best to play their roles, but she always had a strange feeling in her heart that she couldn't explain.
Rule 3: If you see brightly colored mushrooms, be sure to pick them; these mushrooms will make a very delicious soup.
While searching for herbs, Xu Yi prepared to pick the brightly colored mushrooms she saw and put them into her basket.
When she reached out, the colorful mushroom suddenly moved; when she reached out to grab it, the mushroom vanished in an instant.
Xu Yi looked at her hand, then at the spot where the mushroom had disappeared, and couldn't help but say, "No way, is this mushroom really that hallucinogenic? It can cause hallucinations even without eating it?"
That's not your imagination; the mushrooms really have disappeared.
Upon seeing the familiar words before him, Xu Yi looked at the ground again, and the colorful mushrooms had reappeared.
She reached out and picked the mushrooms, put them in the basket, and then stared at them for a while, still a little uneasy.
"Sister Xiangbei, do you think the mushrooms will run away again?"
[I don't think so.]
Xiang Bei said uncertainly.
Who knows what might happen in this strange world?
It's also possible that the colorful mushroom might suddenly turn into a person in the next moment.
Xu Yi picked some mushrooms, glancing at each one as she picked it, always worried that they might mysteriously disappear.
They then gave the herbs they found to the injured black wolf, but it refused to accept them.
"Little Black Hat, can you help me apply the medicine? I'm in a lot of pain right now, and I can't apply it myself."
"sure."
Xu Yi crushed the herbs in a handkerchief, applied it to the black wolf's wound, and then bandaged it with the handkerchief.
"Little black hat, where are you going with that basket?"
"I want to bring food to my grandma."
Black Wolf looked at her and laughed, "Little Black Hat, are you only taking these things with you? Look at all these flowers in the forest, they're so beautiful. You should take some with you for your grandmother. She'll be so happy to see them. Little Black Hat, I think you should pick some flowers for your grandmother."
Xu Yi looked at the flowers in the forest and nodded, "You're right."
"Then go pick some flowers, I'm leaving now."
Watching the black wolf leave, Xu Yi didn't choose to pick any flowers. She remembered her mission; according to the original storyline, this was just an excuse for the black wolf to get rid of her.
She wanted to go over and stop the black wolf's actions, and tried to continue walking forward. After taking only two steps, a bolt of lightning suddenly exploded in the sky, striking right at her feet.
A wind rose in the forest, blowing the leaves around like sharp blades that cut Xu Yi's cheeks.
Xu Yi reached out to block the wind and squinted as she looked up at the sky.
Is this a warning to her not to break the rules?
She tried to see something from above, but all she could see were figures hidden behind dark clouds.
Perhaps sensing that Xu Yi was watching it, the dark figure vanished in an instant.
The sky returned to calm, and the wind stopped.
Don't move, your face is injured. Let me spray some medicine on it.
Xu Yi felt something spray onto her cheek, and a faint herbal scent wafted in the air. The small wounds on her cheek were slightly itchy.
When I touched it, the wound had already healed.
After thanking Xiang Bei, Xu Yi left the main road and headed deeper into the forest.
She picked a few flowers and casually placed them in the basket. When she was about to pick up the basket and leave, she found that it seemed to be nailed to the ground and she couldn't lift it no matter what she did.
Xu Yi looked down and saw some tentacles extending from the ground, grabbing her basket tightly.
She took out a dagger and pinned one of the tentacles to the ground, a piercing scream echoing in her ears.
Taking advantage of the moment when the tentacles loosened their grip, Xu Yi quickly picked up the basket and walked towards the road.
There were some noises coming from the bushes nearby. When Xu Yi turned around, a black snake as thick as an arm jumped out of the bushes and opened its mouth to bite Xu Yi's arm.
She stabbed the black snake in the eye with a dagger, and it went berserk. Xu Yi dealt with it swiftly and decisively, and the rest of the journey went smoothly.
She walked along the road until it was almost dark before she arrived at her grandmother's house.
My grandmother lives alone. This old lady seems to have a very special ability: she can make herself less noticeable, and even the house itself becomes less noticeable.
Xu Yi searched for a long time but still couldn't find where her grandmother's house was.
Just as it was getting completely dark, she finally saw her grandmother's house. She had clearly walked past it just now, but she hadn't noticed the little house there.
It's similar to her house, both being typical Gothic in style.
She naturally did not forget her goal: to kill the big black wolf and save her grandmother.
Xu Yi gripped the basket tightly and hurried to her grandmother's house.
She knocked on the door.
"Grandma, it's me, Little Black Hat. I've come to see you."
"It's Little Black Hat, come in quickly." A rough, hoarse voice came from inside.
The door opened with a gentle push, and Xu Yi walked into the house. Her current home was black, while her grandmother's home was black and red, looking like a vampire's house.
"Little Black Hat, come here and let Grandma take a look." The person wrapped tightly in the bed stretched out his hand and said to Xu Yi.
Xu Yi didn't go over. She held the dagger in her hand and looked at Black Wolf lying on the bed, smiling, "Why do you have the handkerchief I used to bandage Black Wolf's wounds on you?"
Black Wolf was surprised and jumped up, only then realizing that he was wrapped in a blanket and Xu Yi couldn't possibly see the handkerchief used for bandaging.
Now that he's been exposed, Black Wolf will stop pretending.
He bared his fangs at Xu Yi, "Little Black Hat, you're a kind little girl. You wouldn't bear to let me go hungry, would you? Come here, come here and let me eat you up."
Its body was covered in eerie shapes that were faintly visible.
Xu Yi glanced at the big black wolf's belly; it was flat, indicating that her grandmother hadn't been eaten by the wolf.
As the big black wolf pounced, Xu Yi used the dagger hidden behind his back to slash at the wolf.
When the big black wolf fell, there was a sound coming from the cabinet.
Xu Yi walked over with the dagger, opened the cabinet, and discovered that her grandmother had been tied up inside by a big black wolf.
Pulling off the gag from Grandma's mouth, the old woman looked very unwell. "Hello, Little Black Hat, how are you?"
"Hello, Grandma, I'm fine. The big black wolf is dead, and it won't eat us anymore."
Grandma coughed twice and nodded.
Xu Yi gave flowers and food to her grandmother.
Seeing her grandmother's weak appearance, Xu Yi remembered something. "Grandma, let's cook these mushrooms and eat them. They'll taste delicious."
"Okay, I'll go cook." Grandma took the mushrooms to the kitchen.
Xu Yi stayed behind to deal with the big black wolf. As she dragged the wolf out, she ran into the returning hunters.
He was wearing a black hat and carrying a hunting rifle.
"Hello, Little Black Hat," the hunter said, looking at the large black wolf on the ground.
"Hello, where are you from?"
“I came from the other side of the forest.”
Xu Yi looked at the other person and said, "Really? Then you must have met Hei Xue. I ran into her when I came over just now."
The hunter looked a little uncomfortable, but still nodded. "Yes, I met her."
Xu Yi guessed that since there were so many fairy tale characters in the fairy tale town, some of them must have something in common.
Take the hunter in front of us, for example. He is both the hunter who spared Black Snow and the hunter who saved Little Black Hat and Grandma.
Now, however, it's Little Black Hat himself who's saving Grandma.
So why does Little Black Hat insist on waiting for someone else to save her?
If you encounter danger, can't you save yourself?
Xu Yi thought for a moment, and felt as if he heard something cracking. He looked around, but did not find anything unusual.
"I should go now. I can help you get rid of this big black wolf."
"Okay, thank you."
Xu Yi gave the dead gray wolf to the hunter, who then gave Xu Yi one of his hunting rifles before leaving with the wolf.
Watching him leave with the black wolf, Xu Yi turned back. Her grandmother had cooked mushroom soup, and Xu Yi and her grandmother drank the mushroom soup together. It was indeed very delicious.
Even my grandmother looks much younger.
"Little Black Hat, the mushrooms you brought are delicious. I feel much better now."
"If it's delicious, Grandma can eat more."
Congratulations to the participant for completing the objective.
Upon hearing the electronic voice, Xu Yi immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The Little Black Hat card glows, is it because the Little Black Hat quest is relatively easy?
Thinking that the mission was completed but one of the rules had not been met, Xu Yi couldn't help but frown again.
The previous report only said that she had achieved her goal, but there were still tasks to be completed.
There was also a task in the initial rules.
Rule 3: In this mission, there is one person who is not a resident of Fairy Tale Town. Please find this person.
This is the ultimate task.
Now that Xu Yi has achieved her goal, she has fewer constraints, but she must find the lurking person as soon as possible and save the true natives of the fairytale town.
Little Black Hat sleeps at his grandmother's house at night.
One rule is that you can't take off your black hat when you're out and about, but you can take it off at home.
Although the mission was completed, Xu Yi was still worried and slept with the black hat on.
The day was peaceful, and no one was eliminated.
When she was sleeping, Xu Yi always felt someone moving around on her body, and her eyelids were so heavy that she couldn't keep them open.
She heard someone speaking in her ear.
"Sleep, go to sleep, don't wake up."
She also felt someone tugging at her cloak.
Xu Yi reached out and grabbed his hood tightly, refusing to let go.
She couldn't open her eyes, but her fingers could still move. With one hand she gripped the hood, and with the other she reached for the dagger hidden on her body, then forcefully stabbed it in the direction of the sound.
The sound of the bottle hitting the ground reached Xu Yi, who suddenly opened her eyes and sat up in bed.
She was still gripping her hood tightly, and waved the dagger in front of her twice.
There was nothing there. She got out of bed and lit a candle, only to find that the vase on the table had somehow fallen to the ground.
"Sister Xiang Bei, did you see anything just now?"
No, it suddenly went completely dark, and I couldn't see anything.
When Xu Yi woke up, Xiang Bei was able to see the situation clearly.
Xiang Bei was also studying the rules. She found some of the fairy tales and read them, but didn't find any problems. Just as she was reading the next book and flipping through a few stories, she suddenly realized something. Just as she was about to speak, an alarm suddenly sounded in the space.
The entire space even began to shake.
The system rushed over and covered Xiang Bei's mouth, "Host, you can't say that! The person in charge of the instance just gave us a serious warning and said we must not interfere with the instance's progress any further."
Xiang Bei pushed aside the system's chubby claws and stared at it intently.
"Warning us? Why?"
The system kept shaking its head. "There's nothing we can do. The Ghost Realm is a system in itself. We're just one part of the script, not mission takers specifically tasked with executing the Ghost Realm. We're already being very accommodating. We can't reveal anything more, or we'll forcibly kick Xu Yi out of the Ghost Realm."
"Is he the mastermind behind the invasion of the town?"
The system nodded. "Yes, the other party warned us not to meddle anymore. The higher-ups also told us to stop interfering. Xu Yi has a cheat code; she'll be fine."
“It was the one that invaded other worlds first,” Xiang Bei said.
The system sighed, "In the strange world, strength is paramount. The other party is an SS-level dungeon. The higher the level of the dungeon, the stronger the person in charge. The other party can allow Xu Yi to enter its dungeon, but it does not allow the host to communicate with Xu Yi again."
Recently, the ghosts in the eerie world have become increasingly unrestrained by the rules. Like this ghost now, he escaped from the original world and created a new copy world.
Unless the mission takers can successfully complete the mission, the town will only degenerate into a bizarre world.
