After thinking about it carefully, they found that the village chief's house had more or less drunk some water yesterday afternoon, and only He Zhengping ate the food. The rest of the people also had food and water in their luggage, and they had spent last night and this morning on the food in their luggage.

This further confirmed Xu Yi's speculation that he could not eat the water and food in the village.

Xu Yi found that he was the only one who didn't drink water yesterday, and although Yuge quickly vomited and vomited all the water in his stomach, it was unknown if there were any residual parasites entering the intestines.

According to everyone's description of last night, Xu Yi found that no one had encountered the illusion. Linked to the fact that he was the only one who didn't drink water yesterday, Xu Yi felt that his hallucinations might have something to do with this.

Xu Yi believes at the moment that the horror world pays attention to a wonderful fairness.

Drinking water certainly brings danger, but instead of drinking water, he encounters another danger.

Xu Yi took a deep breath and informed everyone of his discoveries and experiences last night, as well as his guesses and thoughts after sorting them out.

When it was said that there were likely parasites in the water, several people retched.

"How do you prove that your speculations are correct?" Dong Mu's face was ugly, and his tone was very bad.

"You can choose not to take my word for it, I'm just telling my conjecture for everyone to refer to. I hope to minimize the number of victims in the mission. Xu Yi said that Dong Mu's personality seems to love to raise the bar with others, and Xu Yi has become accustomed to her questioning.

"However, that strange green thing, Brother He ate a lot yesterday, and it seems that there is nothing wrong, but there is a dead person among those who have not eaten it." Pan Yangbing cautiously raised his own questions.

"That's one of the things I don't understand." Xu Yi said helplessly: "These are the only clues I have speculated at the moment. ”

"You mean I was the one most likely to die." He Zhengping was a little displeased: "But I am the least suspicious now, and you are more suspicious, aren't you?" You have told us so many clues, how can there be such a selfless person, I see that you have been dropped and deliberately misled us by saying false clues! It is likely that the food in the luggage is dangerous, and the food in this village is safe! ”

Hearing He Zhengping's questioning, Xu Yi couldn't help but sneer: "If I am replaced, I will definitely be secretly hidden among you and talk less, after all, there are many mistakes in what you say, and it is easy to show your feet." ”

"That's not necessarily, we don't know what kind of person you were before, maybe you caught our psychology and did the opposite." He Zhengping looked at him with pity.

He Zhengping's words obviously convinced several other people, and they quietly distanced themselves from Xu Yi.

"I doubt you now, a person who has only experienced one world, how can he be so strong in analysis and observation." Dong Mu also showed his doubts about Xu Yi: "I think we should all keep our distance from you." ”

As she spoke, she also took a few steps back, indicating that she kept her distance from Xu Yi.

Pan Yangbing looked at Xu Yi and He Zhengping in a dilemma, he didn't know who to trust.

Yuge and Xi Yue stood firmly on Xu Yi's side and made their position clear.

"Little girl, don't be gullible just because the young man looks good, this is a terrifying world, and people will die!" Dong Shu raised his chin at Xi Yue.

"I have my own way of judging." Xi Yue said: "Among all of them, the ones I believe most in are Yuge and Xu Yi, they are people who will never be transferred. ”

"Why are you so sure?" Dong Shu asked strangely.

"Because ........." Xi Yue opened her mouth, but she didn't make any sound.

Xu Yi remembered that when he formed a team, that short paragraph was marked: "In the horror world, the information of the tasker's team cannot be shared with others in any way"

"Is it possible that although people are not dead, they will be controlled by the ghosts who have transferred the package?" He Zhengping suddenly realized.

"Possibly, who could have imagined the power of this goblin. Yuge and Xu Yi have been living together, and it is very likely that they are controlled. And the little girl named Xi Yue has just chatted with Xu Yi for a while, maybe she has been controlled! Dong Shu pointed at the three of them and said.

"If the replacement goblins can control people, doesn't it seem suspicious for you to testify against each other?" Xi Yue said to He Zhengping.

"But I didn't say so many misleading clues." He Zhengping shrugged: "And if one of the two of us is a ghost and the other is controlled, do you think I will tell such a key clue for you to know?" ”

Just as Xu Yi was about to argue a few words, a strange voice interrupted him.

I saw a few villagers, pushing a tall shelf through the crowd, and the shelf was full of dozens of wooden bells, large and small, making a unique and rich sound as the shelf swayed

Seeing that the villagers around them heard this voice, they all stopped chatting and stood upright, and the eight of them did not dare to speak anymore.

Although all the villagers were smiling, Xu Yi could not see the smiles in their eyes.

The villagers pushed the wooden frame to the side of the sacred tree, and the village chief walked out of the crowd, stood in front of the wooden frame, cleared his throat, and said, "Before sacrificing to the sacred tree, let's first worship these children who helped us gain the trust of the sacred tree!" Thank you for their dedication to this village! ”

The village chief looked very old, but his voice was still full of energy, there were about a hundred people standing in front of the sacred tree, Xu Yi and they were standing at the back of the crowd, but they could still hear clearly.

But just because you hear clearly doesn't mean you understand. The eight of them looked at each other, not understanding what the village chief meant.

Then the two villagers pushing the wooden frame first folded their hands and bowed to the bell on the shelf, and then pushed the wooden frame to make a stop in front of each villager, and after stopping, the villagers in front of the wooden frame would bow to the bell with their hands together.

"What does this mean? Shall we do the same? Yuge said in Xu Yi's ear in a breathing voice, which made Xu Yi's ears particularly itchy.

"I don't know yet, so let's do it." Xu Yi whispered.

The wooden frame soon arrived in front of Xu Yi and Yuge, and Xu Yi took the opportunity to take a closer look.

Each wooden bell is very finely carved and the surface is polished very smooth, which is not easy to make in a village where there are no electric tools.

Each wooden bell was carved with a name on the surface, and Xu Yi swept it away at a glance and saw several names such as "He Xiaohua", "Ding Yue", and "Xu Feng".

These wooden bells are engraved with their names, which should be the names of the children who have won the trust of the sacred tree as mentioned by the village chief, and dozens of wooden bells represent dozens of children, how did these children gain the trust of the sacred tree?

Where have these children gone?

Xu Yi suddenly thought of something, and his face changed drastically.

The village chief said that today is the Sacred Tree Festival, and all the villagers must come here, even a foreigner like Xu Yi, who has a broken leg, has to come on crutches to worship.

Xu Yi looked at the villagers around him, there were gray-haired old people, middle-aged people with vicissitudes of life, and young people full of energy, but he didn't see any children, whether they were swaddling babies, children or teenagers, none of them appeared.
