Chapter 402: The Tricks of the Beast World (15) End
Xia Yueke didn't expect that people in the tribe would also have tasks. She couldn't help but look at the tiger leader in surprise, but at this time she was more worried about themselves.
According to this manual, one of Sister Zhang, her, and Ai Teng has been contaminated. Now they need to find that contaminated person and let the remaining two follow the Tiger Chief and leave the tribe.
So who is the polluted person?
Before Xia Yueke could think it over, the Tiger Chief said impatiently:
"Time is limited. The three of you must make a quick decision. Who is contaminated? I'll only take two people with me. You all know this mission has little to do with me. I'm just a guide, and I don't know which of you is contaminated. You need to make your own judgment!"
Ai Teng spoke first, "It's not me. I'm such a coward that I haven't been anywhere. It must be Sister Zhang. Xia Yue, we've been working together these past two days. You should know me. I think it's Sister Zhang! You have to believe me!"
Ai Teng looked at Xia Yueke with a serious expression.
Xia Yue was stunned. She looked at Ai Teng and then at Sister Zhang. She saw that Sister Zhang was not worried at all that Xia Yue would join forces with Ai Teng to harm her. She still had that indifferent expression.
Sister Zhang laughed out loud when she saw Xia Yueke racking her brains.
"Now we need everyone to share all the clues they know. Who is the one who looks most like the contaminated person? Don't just make empty accusations!"
Ai Teng was anxious again, "Xia Yueke, it must be Sister Zhang. Look, when she and Lin An were looking for the cave together, nothing happened. I guess she must have been contaminated at that time, or, or maybe she was contaminated by the flute sound when she was looking for the orchard before!"
Sister Zhang shrugged. "Aiteng, how can you be so sure it's me? What if it's you? You're really not right today. Based on your usual behavior, you would have been crying a long time ago!"
Ai Teng was stunned for a moment, and the next second he actually burst into tears, "Sister Zhang, you must be it! Xia Yueke, don't hesitate, let's identify it together, and then we can get out. Don't you want to leave this game? Do you want to be trapped here forever?"
Xia Yueke had a terrible headache after hearing what Ai Teng had said just now, that he suspected that Sister Zhang was polluted by the sound of the flute. To be honest, if Xia Yueke didn't feel that she was normal now, she would have suspected that she was the one who was polluted. And does the polluted person know that he or she has been polluted?
Xia Yueke's mind was in a thousand twists and turns. Sister Zhang spoke again, "Xia Yueke, who do you think is lying?"
Although Sister Zhang looked calm, Xia Yueke could see a hint of hope and a hint of sadness in her eyes.
Xia Yueke looked at her and then at Ai Teng. Ai Teng was still crying, but the difference was that Ai Teng's eyes were dark and he didn't cry as miserably as before with tears and snot. It seemed like he was learning to cry.
Xia Yueke had an intuition in her heart, telling herself not to doubt her own judgment. After a while, she said, "Sister Zhang, I believe you."
"Aiteng, you have been contaminated."
Ai Teng's crying stopped immediately. He just stared at her blankly, then restrained his expression, "I'm polluted? I'm polluted? How is it possible, Xia Yueke! I'm obviously not. I can still think, I can still cry, why don't I feel anything..."
Xia Yueke looked at Ai Teng's incredulous expression and finally felt a little sorry for him. She turned her head away and asked, "Were there any black feathers in the water you jumped into yesterday?"
Ai Teng was stunned. Was there? Or was there not? He didn't know. He was so busy running for his life yesterday that he didn't have time to check if there were any black feathers in the water.
He knew that he had drunk the water from that place yesterday out of panic, so...
Ai Teng suddenly remembered the third rule. [3. Water Crisis: When you find a water source, first observe the surface. If you see black feathers floating on the surface, the water is undrinkable. Drinking it will infect you with a mysterious parasite, causing you to lose your normal sanity and become food for the parasite, a symbiotic relationship.]
parasitic--
Is he parasitized?
Ai Teng suddenly collapsed. He sat on the ground, holding his head and crying, "Ah, what is it? Get out of my body quickly, get out, wuwuwu. I don't want to die, I don't want to die..."
The tiger chief was annoyed by Ai Teng's voice.
"Shut up. There's nothing scary in our water source. It's just some common bugs. What's there to be afraid of?"
Ai Teng opened his mouth wide, "Bugs? What kind of bugs? I want to spit them out! Spit them out!"
The tiger leader chuckled, revealing his sinister white teeth. "It's not a pest, just a caterpillar. It's just coexisting with you and hasn't adapted yet. After a while, the two of you will merge well. Don't worry, you won't die. You two are coexisting. You can feel its thoughts and consciousness. Perhaps you can appear one after another!"
Ai Teng couldn't cry anymore because he was scared by the tiger leader, but he was also a little happy to know that he would not die because of this bug. Even with this expression, he couldn't smile.
Sister Zhang looked at Xia Yueke for a long moment, then suddenly smiled. "Xia Yueke, your judgment is correct. You should behave like this from now on. When someone around you seems out of place, please trust your intuition and don't betray yourself because of feelings."
Xia Yueke felt that she had benefited a lot and looked at Sister Zhang with gratitude.
Ai Teng saw the two people chatting casually and started crying again, "Wow, Xia Yueke, Sister Zhang, I don't want to stay, I want to go home..."
Sister Zhang curled her lips slightly. "Your fate is already very good. Didn't you hear what the Tiger Chief said? It's just a symbiotic relationship with a bug. At worst, you can just treat your bug as a brother. You're the big brother, he's the little brother, and you'll make him listen to you from now on! And look at what happened to Luo Da and the others. None of the other people who broke the rules are still alive. You can just live here in peace!"
Ai Teng thought about it and it was true. Compared with Boss Li and Luo Da, he just stayed in this game and lived with a bug.
"Tiger Chief, I really won't die, right?"
The Tiger Chief nodded impatiently. "Of course, you can just serve me here. You're crying here every day. There are already two people like you! They're serving me at the door!"
"Also, since the decision has been made, I'll take you two with me. Once we leave the tribe this time, you should be able to go back."
The tiger chief took Sister Zhang and Xia Yueke out. Ai Teng watched them from behind for a long time and then caught up with them. The three of them walked side by side in silence until Xia Yueke and Sister Zhang were about to go out.
Ai Teng looked at them and said, "Thank you for these past few days, and Sister Zhang, if it weren't for you, I would have been scared to death the next night. I... I won't say much else. I wish you all the best, and hope you can complete every level of the game from now on!"
Xia Yue didn't know why she always felt uncomfortable in her heart, a little reluctant, she choked and said: "Aiteng, we understand, you should take good care of yourself in the future, we will be careful."
Sister Zhang seemed to be accustomed to this kind of separation between life and death, and just nodded to Ai Teng.
As the two of them stepped out of the tribe, Ai Teng shouted again: "Xia Yueke! Sister Zhang! Goodbye! Be well with yourselves—"
