The player arrived late, after most of the villagers had come out of the ancestral hall.

Feng Lan walked into the ancestral hall. The two withered old men guarding the door did not stop her. They just glanced at her and then calmly hunched over, half-closing their eyes and dozing off.

In the center of the ancestral hall is a sculpture of a squatting weasel. In front of it, a bronze cauldron is filled with incense sticks, and wisps of smoke rise up, obscuring the sculpture's face. On the walls on both sides, the memorial tablets of the villagers are crammed together.

She exchanged a glance with the statue and knew that it possessed a spirit. She guessed that the village's peace was partly due to it. However, the statue had a fierce appearance and did not seem to be a benevolent deity. If this continued, the village would eventually be unable to satisfy its greed.

Of course, the players are in the most danger right now. Feng Lan looked at the two players who had listened to the villagers' story and were preparing to offer incense.

In this kind of world, taking shortcuts often comes at the cost of your life, the only thing of value you have.

After walking around the village, Feng Lan didn't see anything special. After the villagers worshipped the deity in the ancestral hall, they all worked diligently in the fields behind the village. There were not many idle people, and the few children were all watched over, so no child was left alone.

After talking with several children and confirming that there was a town dozens of miles away from the village, Feng Lan decided to go out and take a look.

Little did she know, after walking only ten kilometers or so from the village, the infinite game warned her that she had left the instance area and issued an erasure warning.

"This is treating players like dirt." Feng Lan was speechless. Feeling the mental surveillance, she had no choice but to retreat.

Shouldn't she praise the game for giving players a chance to make mistakes instead of eliminating them outright?

Feng Lan remained silent, unaware that the reason this horror game was so cautious was because it had recently tried to sneak into the territory of the survival game, only to be caught and severely punished. That's why it was now so careful.

After all, most of its energy comes from other worlds, which it secretly borrows.

It's like thieves. When people catch a thief, most will give him a good beating and take back what belongs to them. Very few people will generously tell the thief, "Take whatever you want, I don't care," ask if the thief has enough, or make the thief sign a bunch of agreements.

Unable to leave and having already lost the coordinates, Feng Lan returned to the village. The players were no longer there. She followed the path she had come from back to the graveyard. In the middle of the day, she dug up several graves. When she arrived, the fresh soil of those graves had been dug up, but there wasn't a single decent coffin inside. A roll of straw mats was used to wrap the corpses.

Some corpses didn't turn into zombies, while others grew fangs and claws. It's estimated that if players don't dig up graves during the day, these zombie-turned corpses will rise up at night.

Seeing that the players were adapting well under Sister Cai's guidance, she observed the grave mounds. Feng Lan dug up three graves with the strongest corpse resentment and, unsurprisingly, unearthed two zombies and a mother-and-child twin.

She nailed peach wood to the zombie, sprinkled glutinous rice, and set it on fire. Considering the mother died while pregnant, she first interviewed the corpse's opinion. The corpse could choose any method of death, including purification through merit, cremation, burning, or molecular evaporation. Of course, she would ensure that the pain was minimized and that the body was under general anesthesia.

Unfortunately, the woman and her unborn child chose to fight Feng Lan one-on-one, and Feng Lan tacitly accepted that the other party had chosen any painless way to pass on their souls.

The mission was complete, and she left the instance. Following the same procedure as before, the game led her stealthily out of this small world through another exit. Feng Lan had already seen that the survival game, based on the coordinates she provided, had arrived outside this small world.

She briefly communicated with the game using her divine sense, scanning the world. Hmm, the quality of this world is not bad. Although there are many zombies, ghosts, and vengeful spirits, and there is also war, the world is leaning towards the supernatural. In terms of energy level, it is about C+, just one step away from B-level. It is a decent small world with good resources.
