The ring finger shook its head and said, "I don’t have any other information about the Corpse Blocks."
"It doesn’t necessarily have to be about other Corpse Blocks... tsk, let’s do this." Bai Wei raised a finger, "Turn one piece of information into a question, let me ask you guys a question. After all, under the rules of Taoyuan Village, you can’t lie."
"What if we don’t know the answer to that question?"
"Not knowing is already an answer." Bai Wei smiled and said, "Of course, we can also add a restriction, which is that we cannot probe into each other’s identities... what do you think?"
The ring finger and Rocky exchanged glances.
However, the ring finger just glanced at Rocky and quickly withdrew its gaze, seemingly more inclined to think on its own than communicate with Rocky.
This is also a difficult decision to make.
A randomly chosen question that doesn’t involve the other’s identity must be answered, and the use of a Rule, which is more important.
If you don’t know the other’s identity to begin with, then the Rule seems more important.
After all, choosing the Rule could mean not being able to use it for the next month, which is a big risk for these Corpse Fragment Holders, not to mention the cost of the Rule needs to be paid by themselves. If they needed to pay the price in a dangerous situation, it would be even more perilous.
And that must-answer question... as long as it doesn’t directly involve the identity, it seems there’s nothing that can’t be answered.
Especially if "not knowing" is also considered an answer, then the risk is much smaller.
Thinking of this, the ring finger made a decision.
"I choose the question."
Rocky’s voice sounded at the same time.
Both of them looked at each other in slight surprise, but said nothing further between them.
From Rocky’s perspective, since the [Disturbance] had already been given once before, giving it once more was no big deal.
Some things are often hardest to accept the first time. Once you’re used to it, it’s nothing.
But the must-answer question is different.
Rocky was very suspicious that Ulu might have already guessed his identity, so he wanted to test it a bit.
After all, the explicit rule is only that you cannot directly probe the other’s identity, but you can indirectly.
If you already have a guess and then ask a question, there are too many ways to circumvent this restriction, so Rocky had to be cautious.
Hmm, after suffering twice, Rocky felt that now... he was strong.
He would absolutely not suffer a third time!
He made a silent determination.
Bai Wei then smiled and said, "Alright, Mr. Thumb, I’ll take your [Disturbance] again."
As he spoke, he extended his hand.
The light belonging to the [Disturbance] attached to the ancient tree slowly descended, gathering like fireflies on Bai Wei’s right thumb.
This made Rocky look very distressed.
His Rule... got taken by Bai Wei again.
After taking the [Disturbance], Bai Wei no longer paid attention to Rocky, but turned to look at the ring finger.
Rocky’s and the front tooth’s hearing was once again blocked.
And the ring finger was starting to get nervous.
Not just nervous, but even a little... regretful.
And as Bai Wei slowly began to speak, the ring finger truly began to regret it.
"Tell me, what is sealed in the Contract Land?"
The ring finger’s eyes widened, filled with surprise.
How did he know I was from the Land of Order?!
Before the ring finger could comprehend, her body already began to respond, painfully, word by word.
