"But I hear what you mean, you haven't upgraded your skills yet?" Le Yan looked contented, and indeed he was not overly surprised by Shu Li's words. Instead, he grasped the key points very sensibly.
"Well, that's right." Shu Li agreed while looking at the panel he had opened, but suddenly noticed something was wrong on it.
"Weird." Shu Li glanced up and down at the words above and murmured in a low voice.
"What's wrong?" Le Yan was no longer as cheerful and natural as before, and he frowned slightly.
"I remember that the previous panel data was not like this." Shu Li pinched his eyebrows, and the suspicion in his heart was confirmed.
However, Shu Li sighed and said to Leyan: "Wait a moment, I will come to you after I upgrade my skills."
Le Yan narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Okay, the time is not short, I will let you out now."
Then, she and the thick white fog disappeared together, and everything around her gradually became clear.
Uncle Shi Liu was pacing back and forth holding the tobacco bag in his hand, looking like he wanted to smoke but was too afraid to smoke in the mountain temple.
Uncle Shi Liu's eyes widened when he saw Shu Li reappearing on the same spot, still unharmed.
"You..." He looked at Shu Li in disbelief: "You're not injured?"
Shu Li's heart was in a mess. Hearing this, he didn't have a good attitude at all and said: "Unscathed."
"Okay, okay, great." Uncle Shi Liu said "ok" three times excitedly, looking at Shu Li as if he was seeing a mountain god.
Shu Li: Yes, I just solved one of my questions, and now I have one more.
"So, do I pass the test?" she asked.
Uncle Shi Liu raised his hand to stroke his beard and nodded in response: "Of course."
"Then can I enter the inner hall of the mountain temple?"
"This is not possible now, at least until I see everyone tomorrow."
Shu Li nodded: "Okay."
It's not that I can't bear it this night.
The two of them retreated the same way they came. Master Long's figure had disappeared, leaving only Clerk Su kneeling on the ground with an unconvinced look on his face.
Shu Li stood still and smiled politely: "Uncle Shi Liu, please go back first. I'll have a chat with this person."
"But you don't know each other, don't you?" Uncle Shi Liu's doubtful eyes fell on the two of them: "Even if we know each other, you'd better keep a distance from him and don't forget your identity!"
"I don't know him. Just ask me a few words and I'll have an idea." After Shu Li finished speaking, Uncle Shi Liu nodded and said nothing else.
Watching him walk away, Shu Li looked down at the kneeling person: "The murderer?"
"Humph." Clerk Su snorted coldly without raising his head.
"That's not true." Shu Li understood clearly: "The safe word is the soul of an old friend, and the other two are in the inner village, so the catcher is Wan Youyou, and the deceased is brother Jia."
Clerk Su suddenly raised his head, and the shocked expression on his face fully demonstrated that what Shu Li said was absolutely correct.
Shu Li squatted down: "Since the murderer is not you, but you were caught here, then you are the knife used by others?"
"What's your relationship with Qizhen?" She looked directly into Clerk Su's eyes, trying to get as credible an answer as possible.
"Who is Qizhen?"
Looking at the other party's reaction, Shu Li laughed: "This reaction is too fake."
"..."
Shu Li stood up: "Forget it, I don't want to get any clues from you. What I want to know has been confirmed."
Before she finished speaking, she walked happily in the direction she came from, as if she didn't miss him at all.
Clerk Su kept silent at first, but it wasn't until Shu Li had walked out more than ten meters that he suddenly turned around.
"Don't you want to know Uchimura's real secret?"
He used all his strength to make this sound, and it spread far away.
Shu Li paused and silently cursed an idiot.
The guardians on both sides opened their eyes in unison. Although there were no more movements, it was shocking that so many pairs of eyes looked at Clerk Su who was kneeling in front of the temple in unison.
Shu Li didn't want to stay any longer and strode away from this place.
Uncle Shi Liu was an honest man, and he really left when he said he would leave first. However, as Shu Li walked in the vast night, a few thoughts emerged from the chaos in her mind.
The reason why Shu Li asked those few questions just now was actually just to confirm who was chosen as the outcast.
And whether the clues they have learned from the panel so far are all false.
In addition, how Qizhen will deal with her is also a big stone hanging in his heart.
Shu Li returned to her residence and thought about asking Long Guo about the situation here.
As a result, she shouted twice but no one responded, and the door was locked from the outside, as if no one was living inside.
Shu Li frowned and walked towards Yi Tourist. There was exactly the same scene in front of the door.
But her own residence remained as usual.
Shu Li frowned and reached out to push the door open, but did not go in rashly.
The entire courtyard was silent, and the silver moonlight enveloped everything, like a layer of early winter frost.
Shu Li stood quietly behind the door for a long time, and just as she had the idea of going in, the pattern on the panel on her hand suddenly became hot, and the heat seemed to spread all over her body.
Before her consciousness was completely lost, she heard the familiar voice say a cold sentence: This scene has officially opened, and the story line, timeline and personal identity information have been released.

[Among the mountains, there is such a village hidden. 】
[They lean against the tallest mountain and worship the mountain god they have worshiped for hundreds of years. 】
[The big festival that happens once every ten years is coming again. Several people in charge in the village have chosen the sacrifices that best suit their needs. However, just one day before the big festival, something unexpected happened. 】
[I don’t know which of the steward’s sacrifices died mysteriously outside the mountain temple. Before his death, he suffered a humiliation that is unbearable for a human being. His death was miserable. 】
[In addition to the layers of suspicion surrounding the village itself, several randomly selected sacrifices also have unknown involvements...]
[Who is the real murderer? 】
[List of suspects: Wan Qingqing, Qiqiang, Su Ershu, Miss Yi, Guo Shaoshao, Shu Cunren]
[Please explore other information on your own! 】
When Shu Li woke up, her clothes had been replaced by dusty old clothes, but she was still where she was.
After reading the information given above, Shu Li was not sure whether her lying here all night was a plot setting or just a random arrangement that was harmless to the plot.
[Personal identity information: Villager Shu, a talented inheritor, is responsible for maintaining the prosperity of the village. 】
Shu Li saw this introduction on the panel, as well as the shocking story line and timeline.
Everything before entering the inner village seems to have been erased, and the beginning is a story of growth that was mentioned in one sentence.
It says that she passed the most stringent mountain god test during her coming-of-age ceremony and has since been regarded as the inheritor.
