Two days passed in such a calm and peaceful manner, and nothing happened to them.However, there are always some villagers in the village who are too enthusiastic, which makes Bai Jiu not want to go out these two days.

It was dinner time again, and when Bai Jiu and the others came out, Li Lan's family had already sat down at the table.They greeted each other and sat down to eat.

Yin Cui still couldn't stop talking, chatting with Aunt Li, and occasionally hearing a compliment, she grinned with joy.

Everyone else was eating quietly, but Bai Jiu was silent, but felt uncomfortable all over.Li Lan was a bit abnormal today, Bai Jiu noticed that she had been secretly glancing at them during the meal, and this gaze made Bai Jiu instinctively feel uncomfortable.

Several other people also felt this way, but Ling Se and A Qiang remained calm, while Yin Cui looked back directly.

Caught off guard by Yin Cui's gaze, Li Lan panicked for a moment, but quickly calmed down.She smiled at Yincui, with a guilty expression on her face.

Bai Jiu saw all this in his eyes, poking the rice with his chopsticks thoughtfully, it seemed that the clue they were looking for should appear soon.

After returning to the room, he immediately shared his thoughts with the others. Except for Yin Cui who didn't know why, everyone agreed with his inference.

That night, none of them slept, but all gathered in the room, chatting together and waiting for dawn.But around one or two o'clock in the middle of the night, they suddenly heard a movement. It sounded like Li Lan had left her room and went to her parents' bedroom.

It was so late, why did Li Lan go to her parents' bedroom?

Everyone intends to go out to inquire, but it is definitely not possible to go there with such a big fanfare.They live on the second floor, and the stairs of this house are made of wood, and there will be a "creaking" sound when stepping on them.

Everyone's eyes fell on Bai Jiu at the same time.Among the people here, his body is relatively petite and flexible, so he is the most suitable.

Bai Jiu looked at Xiao Si.At this time, there was no one else in the room, so he let Xiao Si out to get some air.But now that he was going out, he wanted to take Xiao Si with him.

Xiao Si understood what he meant, smiled and nodded at him.Bai Jiu transformed into his own body, and Xiao Si transformed into his body, and attached himself to Bai Jiu's body.

Bai Jiu hid Xiao Si behind her ear, and then set off.The pitch-black hair blended perfectly into the night, he ran around the house twice, and soon came to the door of the old couple's room.

Indistinct voices came from the room, the volume was not loud, and it was difficult to hear clearly through the door.Bai Jiu pressed his ears against the door, his voice became clearer, but he could still only hear some of the sentences clearly.

"...no...they didn't...we if...then...what's the difference?"

"That can't...I don't...if...I will die!" Bai Jiu heard the last sentence very clearly, and Li Lan's sudden increase in volume scared Bai Jiu. Nine big jumps.

After these words, there was a brief silence in the room for two seconds, and then the hum of people talking was remembered again.But this time their voices were lowered a lot, and Bai Jiu could not hear clearly at all.

Jumping two steps back and forth at the door, Bai Jiuyi lowered his head and saw the light coming from the crack of the door.He got down on his stomach and wanted to look in from here.

Of course it couldn't be seen, the gap in the door was too narrow, even Bai Jiu couldn't see it even when he lay down.

But...Looking at the crack in the door, Bai Jiu shook her ears, and shook out Xiao Si who was hidden behind her ears.

Xiao Si floated to the ground, Bai Jiu pushed him with his paw, and motioned him to sneak in through the crack of the door to see the situation.Xiaosi understood, but his body was really inconvenient to move around, so he could only twist and bend forward.

He didn't go too far, and hid in the dark place under the crack of the door, but from this angle, he could already see the people in the room and hear the voice clearly.

After a while, the conversation in the room stopped.Bai Jiu heard the footsteps of the people inside, and quickly shrank to the shadow beside the door.The door opened, and Li Lan walked out of the room. The expression on her face was hard to see under the backlight, but Bai Jiu could feel that she was a little irritable.

Bai Jiu's black and shabby mass really didn't attract much attention. Li Lan didn't see him at all, and went straight back to his room.

As for Xiao Si, his sense of presence is even lower, and no one can see him when he lies on the ground.After the people left, the door was closed again, Bai Jiu quickly brought Xiao Si back to their room.

The others had been waiting for a long time, and when they entered the house, they immediately closed the door and asked them about the situation.Bai Jiu only heard a few words outside and couldn't tell the complete information, so he didn't speak, and handed over the right to speak to Xiao Si.

Xiao Si's face was a little nervous, he didn't know what he had heard just now.He grabbed the glass of water on the table and took a sip, then heaved a sigh of relief.

Under the expectant eyes of everyone, Xiaosi finally opened his mouth.He organized the language in his mind and summarized what he heard: "That Li Lan, there is something that has to be done, but she doesn't want to go, so she wants us to go instead of her."

"That thing should be more dangerous, because she said 'she doesn't want to die'." Bai Jiu added.

"Yes," Xiaosi nodded, "and judging from what they said, if she doesn't go, the rest of the village will suffer together."

"Do you know what it is?" Ling Se asked.

But Xiao Si shook his head, "I don't know, they didn't say anything."

Although this answer was already expected, others were inevitably a little disappointed when they heard Xiao Si say that.

Xiao Si thought for a while, and then said: "Also, Aunt Li and Uncle Li don't seem to support Li Lan's doing this, but in the end when Li Lan asked them not to hinder her, they all agreed."

"Is that so..." Bai Jiu pondered, what is it that makes them have to agree even though they obviously don't support it?

Everyone else is guessing, too, but they don't know enough about humans to make valid inferences.Seeing that the atmosphere of everyone was a bit depressed, Ah Qiang thought for a while, and said: "Actually, we don't need to think so complicated. This is only the fourth level, so the setting of the level must be a very simple event. In this respect, the system It won't embarrass us."

It's just level [-] so it won't be hard for them... so the system is gradual?In other words, the following levels may embarrass them.

Bai Jiu's thoughts drifted away without paying attention, but he quickly brought his thoughts back.Let’s talk about the later things later, it is only serious to pass this test first.

Several people didn't sleep all night, and stayed until dawn abruptly.But staying up all night won't have any effect on them, so on the surface they still seem to be in high spirits.

On this day, they could all feel that Li Lan's attitude towards them was much warmer, he would greet them with greetings from time to time, and always whispered to Yin Cui.

According to her words, there are always more topics among girls.

However, Yincui was already wary of Li Lan after being reminded by others the night before.Li Lan wanted to take her out to play alone several times, but she didn't agree. No matter how Li Lan praised her, he couldn't do it openly or secretly.

Li Lan was not annoyed at being treated so indifferently by Yin Cui, she was smiling all day long and seemed to have a particularly good temper.

This made several people more vigilant. The contrast between Li Lan today and the previous few days was too great. Even a fool could see that something was wrong.

Bai Jiu was thoughtful, the hint the system gave them at this level was really...very obvious.

That night, they cheered up and planned to take turns to watch the situation.But for some reason, they all fell asleep in a daze at last, and when they woke up again, Yincui was gone.

They looked at each other and realized that Li Lan made a move.

Lingse looked annoyed, he was the last one to watch the night, but he fell asleep, which made him very self-blame.

Ah Qiang also looked a little serious.He recalled what happened last night, and then said with a certain tone: "We were drugged."

The others were a little confused, they couldn't think of this aspect at all. "I was careless. In the past, I only heard that humans would use drugs against us, but I haven't encountered it before, so I didn't remember it this time." Ah Qiang said with a frown.

It's obviously not the time to pursue responsibility. The top priority is to get Yin Cui back, but they don't know where Li Lan got him, and now they are a little bit at a loss.

At this moment, Xiao Si jumped out of Bai Jiu's pocket.He took human form and said hesitantly, "Actually... I didn't fall asleep last night."

"!!!" This was really a surprise, and everyone suddenly regained their spirits.

"I saw Li Lan come in and take Yin Cui away, but I didn't follow, because I couldn't walk with my body, and the movement of the human figure going downstairs was too loud." Xiaosi said.

"Ah." Everyone was a little disappointed again.

"However, I saw from the window that Li Lan took Yin Cui there." Xiaosi stood by the window and pointed in one direction.

Outside their window was Li Lan's backyard, but due to the angle, they couldn't see the whole backyard.The place where the fourth finger is, is the other side that they cannot see.

After a while of silence, Bai Jiu patted Xiao Si's shoulder heavily. "Good little Si!" After saying this, he said earnestly and sincerely: "But next time you talk, remember to finish it all at once, don't pant."

Xiao Si smiled embarrassedly, and nodded in response to Bai Jiu's words.It would be easy if they had a direction, and they planned to go there to look for it in a while.

But now it's time for breakfast, they discussed it for a while, and planned to pretend that they didn't know that Li Lan did it, so as to lower their defenses.Xiao Si returned to Bai Jiu, and after adjusting their expressions, they opened the door and went down to the first floor.

The author has something to say: I feel that the writing is getting more and more powerless, and the last few chapters are a bit dry.Every time I finish coding and look back, I have a good idea of ​​how I wrote it like this...
